A scumbag man trying to climb the social ladder? She turns around and marries a celibate military of

Mu Xiaowan was dumbfounded.

wrong!

She only wanted to push Chu Junbai away, but the bicycle suddenly turned and went in the same direction as Chu Junbai, making it look as if she wanted to harm him.

Even though Chu Junbai was agile, he was still grazed by the bicycle.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! My bicycle brakes weren't working well, and I lost control." The boy riding the bicycle was about fifteen or sixteen years old. He got up and quickly apologized.

Mu Xiaowan also quickly stepped forward to check.

She asked guiltily, "How are you?"

Chu Junbai waved to the boy, signaling him to leave.

Then, he glanced at Mu Xiaowan.

At this moment, Mu Xiaowan also noticed that the sleeve of his camouflage cotton-padded jacket was torn, and she could see the cotton inside.

"Um, I thought the bicycle was coming towards us, so I tried to push you away."

He said, "The biggest favor you can do for me is not helping me next time."

Mu Xiaowan looked embarrassed.

They continued looking at houses, and then looked at several more.

It's either too dilapidated or too small.

The storefronts here are all very narrow and not bright at all.

Mu Xiaowan didn't find a room she liked.

Dusk falls.

The house viewing ended in failure.

Mu Xiaowan was exhausted even with her arm draped over her neck; the weather in this era was too cold, and her whole body was numb with cold.

Chu Junbai first took Mu Xiaowan home, and then went out again without even eating.

Ye Jincheng waited for Chu Junbai at his workplace for a long time, but when Chu Junbai didn't show up, he went home.

He had just finished eating and was about to take a shower when he heard a knock on the door.

He opened the door and saw Chu Junbai. His eyes narrowed, and without saying a word, he closed the door.

He ignored the knocking.

Before he even reached the bathroom door, he heard the sound of the lock opening.

Seeing Chu Junbai swagger in, Ye Jincheng cursed angrily, "If I had known, I wouldn't have changed the lock. I would have locked the door from the inside and seen how you would get in!"

Chu Junbai didn't take his words seriously at all.

"Is there any food?"

"We only have smelly socks, do you want some?"

"You still want to eat at this hour? You left me at work for so long, saying you needed to talk to me, but you're the one who abandoned me. What exactly is your relationship with that girl?"

"If you don't explain yourself clearly, forget about eating here, and don't even think about ever coming to my door again."

"Also, I was too embarrassed to ask today what happened to that girl's arm. Could it be that you hit her and that's why you're helping her?"

He thought about it for a long time, and this was the only possibility. Otherwise, Chu Junbai wouldn't have been so eager to please a girl.

You know, all the girls who get close to him are very pretty, but I've never seen him take any of them seriously.

They actually abandoned him today.

Ye Jincheng didn't go to take a shower. He poured himself a glass of wine, sat down on the sofa, and put his feet up on the coffee table.

He looked like he was interrogating someone.

He lives alone in an apartment, enjoying his freedom.

Chu Junbai pulled a can of food from under the coffee table, twisted it open with a little force, and then took the can to find a spoon.

Then, in a very casual tone, he said, "Mu Xiaowan is my newlywed wife."

"puff!"

Ye Jincheng spat out the mouthful of wine he had just drunk, spraying it all over the coffee table.

Chu Junbai seemed to have anticipated this outcome.

He sat down only after he saw that everything was alright.

"Chu Junbai, you're not kidding me, are you?"

"Is she really your new wife?"

"Then why didn't you explain it clearly today?"

Ye Jincheng took off his shoe and threw it at Chu Junbai. Chu Junbai dodged it, and the shoe hit the wall behind him with a "smack".

"It's not just you, it's your wife too. You two are exactly the same. Is it fun to keep it from me?"

Ye Jincheng was genuinely angry.

"No matter what your reasons for getting married are, it's still your marriage for life. It's fine if you don't invite me to your wedding, because it's not just me you didn't invite. I've managed to find some balance in my heart."

"But you brought your wife to me without even introducing her. Don't ever call me your brother again."

Chu Junbai finished the can of food in a few bites, but regretted it afterward. He hadn't filled up at all, and the cold made him shiver.

"Go and get me something hot to eat first, I have something important to tell you."

"You still want to fool me? You've been fooling me all day."

Chu Junbai had no choice but to say, "Mu Xiaowan and I are not really married."

Ye Jincheng was surprised again, "What? I saw your marriage application and marriage certificate with my own eyes, how could they be fake?"

“We were forced to be together, so Mu Xiaowan and I signed a three-year contract, after which we will divorce.”

Chu Junbai never fails to utter words that are truly astonishing.

Ye Jincheng was completely dumbfounded.

"Chu Junbai, did you hit your head somewhere?"

Chu Junbai continued, "She had been clinging to me before, but then she suddenly explained the situation to me and told me very clearly that the marriage could be canceled."

"But by then I was already set in stone, and the marriage had to go through with it."

Ye Jincheng thought of how Chu Junbai's matter had been the talk of the town in the army those two days.

Chu Junbai was already a prominent figure, and this scandal caused an uproar in the army.

If this matter is not handled properly, not only Chu Junbai, but also those leaders will be criticized.

Marriage is indeed the best solution.

"Could it be that Mu Xiaowan knew this, so she used a feigned retreat to try and change your opinion of her?"

Ye Jincheng had no time to be angry at this moment and quickly analyzed the situation for his former comrade-in-arms, now his good brother.

“That’s what I think too, but it seems like it’s not just that. Mu Xiaowan’s actions seem to be inextricably linked to my second uncle’s family.”

"I originally wanted to use the marriage application to have the military thoroughly investigate Mu Xiaowan's background, but I didn't expect it to be so clean."

He was even thinking that if he couldn't pass the political review, then the marriage would be called off.

But all of this was out of his control.

Ye Jincheng felt sorry for his brother, whose lifelong happiness had been taken advantage of.

He stood up and went to get some food.

"My mom originally prepared dumplings for me for two meals. I just ate one, so I'll give you the rest."

Chu Junbai found a wine glass, took out an opened bottle of wine from the wine cabinet, and poured himself a glass.

He held his wine glass, strolled to the kitchen, leaned against the door frame, and relaxed in a carefree manner.

"The area around the guesthouse where my accident happened is under your jurisdiction. I'd like you to check who went there during those few days?"

Ye Jincheng said, "Some guesthouses don't keep records at all, so it's possible that they won't be able to find out after so many days."

"Besides, if they register with fake identities, how can we verify that?"

Unable to bear seeing his friend like this, Ye Jincheng could only say, "No matter what, I'll go check it out."

"By the way, where have you been today? You left me hanging all day. I have so many cases to handle, and I'm waiting for you."

Whenever Chu Junbai contacts him, it's always because of a major case, so Ye Jincheng doesn't dare to ignore it.

"Mu Xiaowan wants to start a business!"
