Troop training ground
Qin Zongwu was so pleased with himself because he had eaten and drunk so much that he even got angry when his soldiers didn't meet the training standards.
Lu Yan saw him standing there from a distance, hesitated for a moment, and then walked over. "You did what happened yesterday on purpose, didn't you?"
Qin Zongwu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lu Yan. "What is Master Lu referring to?"
Lu Yan said with a serious expression, "Yesterday you went to find Su Yingxue, and after Su Yingxue was provoked by you, she went directly to the Women's Rescue Association to report Ruan Zhao.
And then you called Director Song of the Women's Rescue Association. After the call, the Women's Rescue Association went out to arrest Ruan Zhao. Wouldn't Commander Qin call this series of events a coincidence?"
After Lu Yan came back from the exercise, he specifically investigated Qin Zongwu's affairs, so he had already known about the relationship between Su Yingxue and Qin Zongwu.
After Qin Mu came to see Qin Zongwu yesterday, he specially asked someone to inquire about it, and then learned that the Women's Rescue Association was looking for trouble with Ruan Zhao.
Considering what Qin Zongwu did yesterday, Lu Yan immediately guessed that Qin Zongwu did it on purpose.
Qin Zongwu's eyes dimmed slightly, but he didn't deny it. "Commander Lu, your soldiers haven't been trained well yet. Instead of focusing on other people's private affairs, you should focus on training your soldiers."
Lu Yan's face turned grim. "Commander Qin, some things can't be calculated.
If you can't be sincere in your relationship, it's cheating. If you can't treat her well, why not just let her go? "
Qin Zongwu's eyes quickly turned cold, and his tone became sarcastic. "Don't worry, Master Lu, because..."
At this point, Qin Zongwu suddenly walked to Lu Yan's side, tilted his head and continued in his ear, "I had already planned this last night."
Qin Zongwu couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips when he thought of the bone-biting and soul-stirring feeling last night.
He stepped back and looked at Lu Yan again, his eyes warning him. "Master Lu is a gentleman. He should understand that coveting other people's things is not a gentleman's behavior."
After he finished speaking, Qin Zongwu turned around and left.
Lu Yan stood there with his fists clenched, and the dark energy in his eyes appeared again.
He didn't know why, but after hearing Qin Zongwu's words, he couldn't help but feel angry.
Because of his anger, the idea that he had suppressed several times popped up in his mind again.
Since there is still a month left, it is still uncertain whether Ruan Zhao will be his wife in the end...

the other side
After Cao Xiaoyun left, Ruan Zhao moved his legs and walked into the house.
Wang Shufang followed him and asked, "Sister, are you really going to take that little devil in?"
Ruan Zhao explained to her, "The child froze to death shortly after birth. He held such a deep grudge that if I kill Cao Xiaoyun, he'll never be reborn again."
When Wang Shufang heard this, she also became nervous.
Seeing her like this, Ruan Zhao continued, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. I'm not a ghost messenger, so I won't take him in. At most, I'll let the ghost messenger take him away."
When Wang Shufang heard the word "ghost messenger", her eyes lit up instantly. "Sister, are there really the King of Hell and ghost messengers down there?"
"Of course." Ruan Zhao said, then thought of something and turned to look at Wang Shufang. "Sister-in-law, don't tell anyone else about this.
We must believe in science, actively respond to the call of our motherland, and not promote feudal superstition. Just treat these things as fun and keep them to yourself."
Wang Shufang curled the corners of her mouth speechlessly.
She always felt particularly uncomfortable when these words came from Ruan Zhao's mouth.
Coming back to her senses, Wang Shufang suddenly caught a glimpse of Ruan Zhao's walking posture and blurted out, "Sister, what's wrong with your legs?"
Ruan Zhao didn't know how to answer, so he just made up an excuse. "It's nothing. I did yoga last night and stretched too much."
She replied so hastily that she completely ignored the fact that Wang Shufang had no idea what yoga was.
Wang Shufang was an experienced person after all, so she quickly realized what was going on and started laughing. "Haha, no wonder Xiao Qin asked me to take care of you. It turns out you're injured."
Ruan Zhao only grasped one key point, "Did he ask you to come?"
Wang Shufang explained, "Yes, he came to me early in the morning and said you were not feeling well and asked me to take care of you.
I came several times this morning, but you didn't get up.
He came to see me again during lunch. I thought you were sick, but you came again."
Wang Shufang said, her tone becoming teasing. "It seems like you two are getting along well. I don't think you need to get a divorce."
"Sister-in-law, I..."
Ruan Zhao was about to make an excuse, but was interrupted by Wang Shufang. "Oh! Sisters-in-law are all experienced people, there is nothing to be embarrassed about.
Don't worry, your sister-in-law will talk to him later and ask him to control himself."
Ruan Zhao: “…”
After a moment of embarrassment, Ruan Zhao decided that she had to fix it, otherwise when she went out, everyone would be able to see what she had done, which would be too embarrassing.
Seeing that Ruan Zhao was not walking properly, Wang Shufang enthusiastically helped her into the house and started cooking for her.
Ruan Zhao did not refuse. He took this opportunity to mobilize his spiritual power to repair his physical discomfort.
By the time Wang Shufang finished cooking, Ruan Zhao's pain had completely disappeared.

After filling their stomachs, Ruan Zhao and Wang Shufang went to Cao Xiaoyun's house together.
As soon as the two arrived, Cao Xiaoyun and Cao Shuhua ran out.
As soon as Cao Shuhua saw Ruan Zhao, he rushed over excitedly, "Comrade Ruan Zhao, can you really see my son? Can you let me see him? I will agree to anything you want me to do."
Ruan Zhao dodged back to avoid being touched by her.
Looking at the bruises on Cao Shuhua's face, you can tell what happened to her after she returned home yesterday.
But Ruan Zhao didn't sympathize with her.
There must be something hateful about a pitiful person. Cao Shuhua is just a person who appears to be tough on the outside but is weak on the inside and is selfish.
Because she had three daughters, she felt very inferior to Liu Aiguo, and over time, her psychology became distorted. She vented her resentment on her three daughters, causing them to become inferior and cowardly, feeling that they could not hold their heads up because they were women.
That would be fine, but the key point is that Cao Shuhua always pretends to be an independent woman to the outside world and cannot stand other women doing anything out of line.
Sometimes when someone says something to someone of the opposite sex, she will step forward and scold them.
Even worse, she once arrested a newly married young wife for some unfounded rumors and publicly criticized her. Unable to bear the pressure, the young wife hanged herself that same day.
Looking at Cao Shuhua's face, Ruan Zhao said coldly, "Cao Shuhua, your fate today is completely karma.
If you had treated your two daughters well, your man wouldn't have grown increasingly disgusted with you, and your son wouldn't have had the chance to be taken away by Cao Xiaoyun.
Therefore, you cannot escape responsibility for your son's death."
Cao Shuhua was stunned by Ruan Zhao's words.
Ruan Zhao ignored her. What made her curious was that after the affair between Cao Xiaoyun and Liu Aiguo was exposed, Cao Xiaoyun's husband did not make any move.
Ruan Zhao took another closer look at Cao Xiaoyun's face, then blurted out, "Cao Xiaoyun, what are your birth dates?"
Cao Xiaoyun did not hesitate and quickly told Ruan Zhao his birth date and time.
Ruan Zhao discovered a new secret after this calculation.
It turned out that the one who wanted to harm Cao Xiaoyun was not only that little devil, but also her man Sun Jiayao.
No wonder her man didn't make a fuss, it turned out he was going straight for her life.
Cao Xiaoyun’s man, Sun Jiayao, is the deputy director of the logistics department of the Security Department. In fact, Sun Jiayao had known about the affair between Cao Xiaoyun and Liu Aiguo for a long time.
But Liu Aiguo was the director of the logistics department, and he was promoted to the position of deputy director thanks to Liu Aiguo's promotion. So he acquiesced to the relationship between the two.
This is also the reason why Sun Jiayao did not get angry when he heard Cao Shuhua expose the affair between them yesterday.
After learning the result, Ruan Zhao looked at Cao Xiaoyun with a mocking expression. "Is the money ready?"
Cao Xiaoyun was stunned for a moment, then his eyes moved after he realized what was happening. "I'm ready. I'll give you the money after you take care of that little brat."
Ruan Zhao raised his eyebrows, seeing through her thoughts at a glance, "My rule is to pay first and then do the work. You still have one chance before I leave."
Cao Xiaoyun and Geng Meihong's situations are different. Ruan Zhao will not give people with bad character the opportunity to plot against him.
Cao Xiaoyun couldn't help but retort, "But they always do the work first and then pay."
Ruan Zhao turned around decisively upon hearing this.
Cao Xiaoyun was anxious at this point, "No, I'll give it to you now."
After saying that, Cao Xiaoyun turned around and ran back into the house, took out the money, gritted his teeth, and handed it directly to Ruan Zhao.
Ruan Zhao glanced at it and put the money into his storage ring with satisfaction. "Alright, follow me in."
