It takes about five minutes to drive from the division headquarters to the service center.

Dozens of people had already gathered outside the service center.

Lu Weidong hissed, "Right here!"

Zhou Xuchen slammed on the brakes, but before the jeep had come to a complete stop, Lu Weidong had already pushed open the car door and jumped out.

He was both anxious and angry, his blood rushing to his head.

Ye Wenxi's fever only subsided yesterday, and she is still weak.

He knew best that she wasn't the one causing trouble; it was probably those same people who came to bully her.

At that moment, the clinic's ambulance arrived with sirens blaring.

Two medical workers jumped off the vehicle with a stretcher and rushed inside.

But Lu Weidong was faster than them.

The crowd parted to make way for him as he charged toward them, his face ashen with rage.

"Battalion Commander Lu is here! Make way!"

Lu Weidong rushed into the service center and immediately witnessed a scene that caused his heart to stop.

Ye Wenxi lay motionless on the cold cement floor with her eyes closed, surrounded by broken glass and wood chips, like a broken butterfly.

"Wenxi!!" Lu Weidong's voice changed as he rushed over to hug her.

Ye Wenxi's heart skipped a beat: Huh? How did they get here so quickly...?

She had just felt Lu Weidong's arm about to touch her when she heard a sharp shout to stop him:

"Battalion Commander Lu, don't move her yet! We need to check her first. If she has fractures or internal injuries, moving her will only worsen the situation!"

Two medics rushed in carrying a stretcher.

Ye Wenxi breathed a sigh of relief: Thank goodness, otherwise the wound would have reopened.

Lu Weidong abruptly stopped, suppressing his anxiety as he gently placed the person back on the ground.

But he held Ye Wenxi's hand tightly, as if he would lose her if he let go.

"Doctor, quick! Take a look at her!"

Several medics quickly surrounded Ye Wenxi and carefully examined his head, neck, and limbs.

When examining the eyelids, Ye Wenxi rolled her eyeballs upwards with great cooperation, performing a performance that could be described as professional.

"There are no obvious external injuries, he's just temporarily unconscious. He needs to be sent back for examination as soon as possible," an older medic said quickly.

"Battalion Commander Lu, please move aside, we need to put her on a stretcher."

Two medics, one in front and one behind, carefully lifted Ye Wenxi.

Lu Weidong subconsciously followed her movement, but still did not let go of her hand.

He lowered his head and called her name softly over and over again, "Wenxi...Wenxi..."

Lu Weidong's voice trembled, filled with fear.

Ye Wenxi was flustered by his appearance.

This man, who is usually so cold and composed, is now like a child who has lost his soul.

Lu Weidong's hand, which was gripping hers, trembled violently; his large hand was frighteningly cold.

Her heart softened, and she gently pinched his palm with her fingertips.

Lu Weidong froze, the words tumbling out: "You..."

Ye Wenxi immediately pinched him again, a little harder, with a clear intention to stop him.

Lu Weidong instantly understood, feeling both helpless and terrified: This girl, really...

Several soldiers began to maintain order.

"Everyone, disperse! Don't crowd around! Let the stretcher pass!"

Zhou Xuchen quickly followed and immediately spotted the person lying on the stretcher.

"This...this isn't Comrade Ye?" His heart tightened.

"Yes," Chen Yuanchuan replied, "she is Battalion Commander Lu's lover."

Zhou Xuchen's eyes darkened, a complex mix of emotions welling up inside him, but his worried gaze still involuntarily followed the stretcher.

"Xiaoyue!" Su Ran pushed through the crowd and rushed over, grabbing her sister's arm. "What happened?!"

"I...I didn't expect this to happen," Su Yue said, her voice trembling and incoherent.

"I just wanted to...just wanted to embarrass her, who would have thought..."

Her words stopped abruptly.

Lu Weidong had already walked over, his eyes cold and dark, like a blade tempered with ice, making Su Yue's spine tingle.

That was a murderous aura truly honed in the midst of gunfire, a blood-soaked oppressive force.

Su Yue was terrified. She huddled behind her sister, trembling and afraid to utter another sound.

"It's you?" Lu Weidong's voice wasn't loud, but every word hit her ear.

"Who are you?! Which unit are you from?!" Chen Yuanchuan followed up with a sharp question, his gaze like lightning.

Su Ran quickly stepped in front of her sister, suppressing her panic as she tried to explain.

"Commander Chen, Battalion Commander Lu, this is my younger sister, Su Yue. She's young and doesn't understand things; there must be some misunderstanding about what happened today!"

Chen Yuanchuan's sharp gaze swept around and finally landed on several sales clerks wearing white coats.

"Tell me!" he said, pointing to the older of the two men. "What happened?"

The veteran sales clerk took a deep breath and stepped forward.

"This young lady came in and immediately started speaking sarcastically to Comrade Ye. First, she said he 'stole someone else's sweetheart'."

"They also said that he ruined other people's happiness and destroyed Battalion Commander Lu's future."

"She even said that if it weren't for Comrade Ye interfering, her sister would have already gotten together with Battalion Commander Lu!"

She looked embarrassed and said, "Oh... they said even more offensive and vulgar things that I can't even bring myself to say."

That's enough.

Lu Weidong coldly uttered two words.

"It makes me sick to hear it."

Su Ran stood to the side, her face even paler than her younger sister Su Yue's, her chest heaving violently, but she couldn't utter a single word.

"I'm putting my words out here today," Lu Weidong said, his gaze sweeping over Su Ran and Su Yue before finally settling on the onlookers.

"From now on, if anyone dares to talk nonsense or spread rumors about my lover again..."

He paused, a chilling glint in his eyes: "Whoever it is! Don't blame me, Lu Weidong, for being impolite!"

"And... this isn't over! I will definitely get justice for my loved one!"

After saying that, Lu Weidong turned around and quickly followed the medical staff, without looking back at anyone.

Those present exchanged bewildered glances, their hearts filled with turmoil.

No one expected that Lu Weidong would truly cherish his new wife.

His eyes were bloodshot and he looked almost out of control just now, clearly showing that he was furious and in deep pain.

He dared to make such harsh remarks to Su Ran's face without any mercy, even going so far as to confront the "big shot" behind her family.

To protect her, even his own future might be affected.

At this moment, no one believes the nonsense about "despicable means" or "forced marriage to climb the social ladder."

They saw it all clearly: Lu Weidong truly loved his wife with a love that was worth risking his life for.

.....

In the observation room of the clinic, the medic had just settled Ye Wenxi onto the hospital bed.

Her eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes.

"Hmm... what's going on? Where am I?"

Ye Wenxi's voice was hoarse and confused, as if she had just woken up.

She didn't want to pretend to faint anymore.

If a full check-up comes later, she might not be able to fool anyone.

As she spoke, she tried to sit up.

"Hey, comrade, don't move, lie down, we still need to do some tests." The medical staff next to her quickly pressed her down.

Lu Weidong immediately moved closer to the bedside, grabbed her hand, and spoke in a hurried and low voice.

"Wenxi, how are you feeling? Is anything hurting?"

"I...I feel..." Ye Wenxi frowned, pretending to be weak and thinking.

But when he looked up, he saw Lu Weidong's ambiguous smile.

Ye Wenxi almost burst out laughing on the spot, so she quickly took two deep breaths and tried to compose herself.

"Battalion Commander Lu, please wait outside for a while. We'll call you in after we've finished examining Comrade Ye and everything is fine."

Next came the routine checks: measuring blood pressure, listening to the heart and lungs, pressing on the head and limbs, and asking about pain...

After a series of examinations, the doctor found that apart from appearing somewhat tired and listless, Comrade Ye's vital signs were all normal.

Just to be on the safe side, the doctor ultimately decided: "Let's keep you in the hospital for observation for a day to see if there's any delayed reaction."

Medical staff left the observation room.

As soon as the door closed, Lu Weidong immediately came back.

He looked at Ye Wenxi, who was still lying on the bed with her eyes closed, looking "sickly and weak".

"Alright, now it's just the two of us."

But Ye Wenxi kept her eyes tightly closed, pretending to be unconscious.

Lu Weidong grinned, a wicked thought creeping into his mind: "If you don't open your eyes, I might..."

As he spoke, that large hand caressed Ye Wenxi's sensitive waist, even attempting to probe deeper...
