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

Chu Junbai glanced at the clothes but did not take them.

Ye Jincheng hesitated for a moment, then draped the clothes over Mu Xiaowan's shoulders.

Mu Xiaowan quickly expressed her gratitude.

"I wonder if my men treated you harshly today? If so, please forgive them; they are very methodical and hard to change."

This sounds like an apology, but it's really just polite talk.

However, this is their job, and they did nothing wrong.

She did have a few suggestions, though.

"The police officers were just doing their duty, but it would have been better if they had been a little more understanding. It's not good to parade around in handcuffs. Especially for those who have been wronged, it's embarrassing, and it's necessary to help cover it up."

Mu Xiaowan emphasized the word "wrongfully accused".

But she still didn't have the courage to look at Chu Junbai.

"What Comrade Xiao Wan said makes sense. I will tell the brothers."

At this moment, Ye Jincheng noticed Mu Xiaowan's arm.

Is your arm better?

Mu Xiaowan then realized that she had forgotten to bandage herself.

However, she still needs to go to the hospital for a check-up, and the bandage should be removed by the end of today.

Chu Junbai narrowed his eyes.

"Your arm is already healed?"

So you're saying she's been faking it these past two days?

"I feel a bit better today. I was planning to go to the hospital for a follow-up check-up. I didn't expect to run into them on the way."

Mu Xiaowan would always explain it very frankly.

Chu Junbai's newly formed idea was quickly appeased.

"Get in the car first."

Chu Junbai took the lead and walked ahead.

Mu Xiaowan pulled her heavy military coat tighter and quickly followed.

Ye Jincheng turned around and went back to his office.

He tapped the table and said to his men, "From now on, when you bring people back, especially the women, be a little more polite and discreet. Give them some face. If any of them do something rash, the responsibility will lie with you."

The policeman who arrested Mu Xiaowan that afternoon quickly asked, "Chief Ye, do you know that girl?"

"That's not what you should ask."

He then raised his eyelids and asked, "You didn't do anything too outrageous to her, did you?"

The young police officer quickly waved his hand, "No, she just said her arm hurt when she came back and asked me to help her pull up her sleeve. I thought she was afraid of being seen and felt embarrassed, so I ignored her."

"Next time you encounter this situation, show some respect to the other person."

"Also, from now on, call me immediately if it's anything related to this girl."

All the police officers looked at each other, wondering what Director Ye meant.

"Let me see today's transcript."

Outside the gate.

Surprisingly, these people were still there.

Mu Xiaowan slowed her pace and looked at the group.

Ge Qingran saw how much Chu Junbai cared about Mu Xiaowan.

She felt extremely resentful.

Although she had never thought about dating Chu Junbai.

But she is better than Mu Xiaowan in every way, so why is Mu Xiaowan happier than her?

This is very unfair, and she is not reconciled.

She yelled at Chu Junbai's retreating figure, "Captain Chu, even if Mu Xiaowan is a ruthless person, don't you care?"

"Mu Xiaowan is heartless and ruthless. Today she's going to kill her sister-in-law, beat her own brother, and even abandon her parents."

Chu Junbai paused, his voice, deep and resonant like fermented rice wine, devoid of any warmth.

"So what? She is my wife, Chu Junbai. Even if she goes to jail today, I will find someone to defend her."

Upon hearing this, Ge Qingran felt a lump in her throat.

Mu Xiaowan straightened her back and walked proudly towards the car.

Ge Qingran's eyes burned with intense passion as she stared intently at Mu Xiaowan's retreating figure.

How come that bitch is so lucky?

Mu Xiaowan climbed into the back seat.

She glanced at Chu Junbai.

Chu Junbai didn't come up. He leaned against the car, lit a cigarette, and slowly smoked it.

Mu Xiaowan glanced around the courtyard, but Ye Jincheng was still nowhere to be seen.

Then she turned her gaze away and looked at Chu Junbai.

The cigarette butt flickered in the air, and Chu Junbai's face also flickered in and out of focus. He took a deep drag, then threw the cigarette on the ground and crushed it with his foot.

Then he opened the car door and got in.

All that remained was silence.

But this only made Mu Xiaowan feel more uneasy.

"Thank you for today."

silence……

……

An awkward atmosphere filled the air.

After about two or three minutes of silence, Chu Junbai took an empty cigarette box from the car, crumpled it into a ball, rolled down the window, and threw it out.

He then rolled up the window, leaned back in his chair, stared blankly ahead, and said coldly, "I don't want it to happen again."

"Perhaps you should ask why. Some things are beyond my control."

"There are too many unexpected factors."

Who can say what is unknown?

"If you keep doing this, do you think you can still have a peaceful life?" The people in your family are not to be trifled with.

If he isn't warned, he won't have a peaceful three years ahead of him.

Chu Junbai first took Mu Xiaowan home, and then went to see Ye Jincheng off.

Mu Xiaowan's trip to the hospital today has fallen through.

After a long and tiring day, I returned home to find my grandfather, grandmother, and Jiang Yinglan watching TV in the living room.

Mu Xiaowan wanted to call Chu Shaoqing to ask, but it wasn't very convenient.

She greeted the elders and went to the kitchen.

"After running around all day, what kind of state does a newlywed wife look like?" the old lady complained to Jiang Yinglan, her eyes practically popping out of her head.

Jiang Yinglan glanced at Mu Xiaowan as she walked away, her expression indifferent.

"Mom, there's something I haven't told you yet. Xiaowan wants to open a shop."

"what?"

The old woman's voice was filled with disbelief.

“Xiao Wan is young, and she doesn’t want to waste her time, so she wants to do something on her own.”

The old lady rejected the idea without hesitation. "No way! Our Chu family isn't so destitute that we'd let our women go out and show their faces in public. If word got out, where would your father and I put our faces?"

Mu Xiaowan went into the kitchen to prepare food, and she could hear the conversation in the living room clearly.

At this moment, Zhang Ma walked in.

"Xiao Wan, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

Aunt Zhang was gentle and kind to Mu Xiaowan, and she was always very respectful and never looked down on her.

Mu Xiaowan was very grateful.

"Thank you, Aunt Zhang. Any leftovers from this afternoon are fine too."

"I ate noodles this afternoon, but there are still some noodles left over from cooking, and some sour soup too."

"Then I'll just have a bowl of noodles!"

Zhang Ma immediately started boiling water. She was very efficient and clean.

The argument in the living room continued.

“Mom and Dad, it’s actually a good thing for young people to go out and do something. It’s not a bad thing to work hard and make progress. Since Xiaowan wants to earn money, we should encourage her.”

Chu Huaizhi spoke up for Mu Xiaowan on behalf of his wife.

“I said no, and that’s final. I can’t afford to lose face.”

"Mom, shouldn't we be proud if our children are successful? There's nothing shameful about it. There are so many people doing business these days. Even if you find a regular job, isn't it all about making money?"

"Moreover, I heard that Shaoqing is also planning to work with Xiaowan. If anyone asks about it in the future, and you feel uncomfortable saying it, you can simply say that Shaoqing opened the shop."

"What? She's getting involved with Shaoqing?"
