It just so happens that Gu Mingzhou also doesn't want to cooperate with Lu Zhengting, because he already regards Lu Zhengting as his mortal enemy. Who would want to cooperate with their mortal enemy?

But he dared not disobey his superiors' orders and had no choice but to cooperate with Lu Zhengting.

He smiled at Lu Zhengting: "Old Lu, I never thought we'd have the chance to do a mission together. I thought it was impossible for this to happen since we weren't in the same group. Since that's the case, it must be fate between us. I wish us a pleasant collaboration."

He reached out his hand to Lu Zhengting, wanting to give him a high five.

Lu Zhengting quickly adjusted his emotions. No matter who he went on a mission with, he would always be in top form and give it his all.

He also extended his hand and gave Gu Mingzhou a high five.

"It's a pleasure to cooperate with you. We'll give it our all."

Their mission this time was to arrest a criminal gang hiding in the area. Because the members of this gang had previously abducted and trafficked children and women in the military region, the military region specifically sent people to arrest them.

They were not the only two people involved in this arrest operation; the military will send more personnel to support them in two days.

After they returned to the brigade, Gu Mingzhou considered that most of their future operations would be at night, and it would be very inconvenient to stay at the educated youth settlement. So he asked the brigade leader to move to the brigade headquarters.

While Li Qinqin was working in the fields, she suddenly saw Zhang Shaopeng nearby.

She and Zhang Shaopeng weren't even in the same team, yet Zhang Shaopeng came to their side and didn't do any work. This guy definitely had bad intentions.

Zhang Shaopeng actually came here specifically to see her, but he discovered that this area belonged to the Third Squad, and Li Qinqin was from the Third Squad.

He only saw this girl here, but not the ugly Li Qinqin. He immediately felt uneasy. Could this girl be Li Qinqin?

He couldn't believe that Li Qinqin had become so beautiful.

No, he had to go over and find out for sure whether this girl was indeed Li Qinqin.

He walked up to Li Qinqin and called out, "Qinqin."

When Li Qinqin saw that he had actually come to find her, the look of disgust on her face was no longer the same as before; instead, it seemed to carry a hint of ingratiation.

Li Qinqin said coldly, "Who am I talking about? It's you. Don't you know I feel disgusted just looking at you? Get away from me right now."

At this moment, Zhang Shaopeng felt both surprised and regretful.

Li Qinqin has become so beautiful, even more beautiful than before.

He deeply regretted breaking off his engagement with Li Qinqin. If he had known she would become so beautiful, he certainly wouldn't have broken off the engagement.

Why is God playing such a joke on him?

"Qinqin." He called Li Qinqin again, unwilling to leave.

Li Qinqin showed him no politeness whatsoever, glaring at him angrily: "Zhang Shaopeng, are you deaf? Didn't you hear me tell you to leave? I hate you, so please get out of here right now. By the way, this is the territory of the third squad, and you're from the fifth squad. Everyone is working hard, and you're slacking off. I'm going to tell your squad leader."

"Qinqin." Zhang Shaopeng still lingered, unwilling to leave. "Qinqin, don't chase me away. Listen to me, I know I was wrong before. Can you give me a chance to correct my mistakes?"

If Li Qinqin still thinks about him and cares about him, he can get Li Qinqin back.

Li Qinqin wanted to vomit in his face after hearing this. "Pah, you scumbag! I was blind to have fallen for you before. You're a complete bastard. I heard you already have a new girlfriend, and you still dare to say such things to me."

"Well, that other person was someone my mother forced me to get engaged to. So, I'll go back and immediately ask my mother to cancel that engagement, and we can get engaged again, okay?"

"Reschedule my ass! I, Li Qinqin, would rather never marry a scumbag like you than marry someone like you. Get out of here, or I'm going to call for help."

"Qinqin, please give me another chance."

"Hey, someone come here! Zhang Shaopeng from the Fifth Squad is slacking off and acting like a hooligan. Someone get him out of here."

Li Qinqin opened her mouth and shouted, immediately attracting the attention of those around her.

They basically all knew that Zhang Shaopeng had taken the initiative to break off his engagement with Li Qinqin. At the time, Zhang Shaopeng went around saying that he felt disgusted to death whenever he saw Li Qinqin, but now he took the initiative to come to her and even tried to act like a hooligan.

Each of their teams was like a small community, basically composed of family members or close relatives, so they were quite united. As soon as Li Qinqin said that Zhang Shaopeng was being a hooligan, several aunties and older women came running over with peanut vines as weapons.

"Where did this audacious scoundrel come from, daring to act like a hooligan on our land? Let's beat him out."

"Qinqin, don't be afraid, we'll help you beat up the thugs."

Several older women surrounded Zhang Shaopeng. Some hit him with peanut vines, while others punched and kicked him. Zhang Shaopeng didn't dare to fight back and could only cover his head to protect himself.

In the end, he was beaten by the older women and fled in disgrace, cursing them under his breath as shrewish women.

He returned to his field and heard his mother sighing.

"Oh my, I heard that the brigade leader's daughter has become more beautiful. Why don't we talk to her again and get the two of them engaged again?"

Zhang Shaopeng wanted to tell his mother that he had been sent away by Li Qinqin, but he still couldn't forget Li Qinqin's beautiful face and her fuller figure than before.

Perhaps Li Qinqin was just angry that he had broken off their engagement with her and that he had gotten engaged to someone else.

If their family cancels the engagement with that other family and then talks things out with the Li family properly, maybe they really can get back together.

Marriage is a major life event, and Zhang Shaopeng didn't want to compromise himself. After much thought, he decided he couldn't easily give up on Li Qinqin.

He said to his parents, "Dad, Mom, I've decided to break off my engagement with Qin Chunhua from the next village. Let's talk to the brigade leader's family again, and I'll also talk to Qinqin and get engaged to her again."

Her mother nodded: "If we can become in-laws with the brigade leader's family, that would definitely be a good thing. Li Qinqin used to like you so much. As long as you coax her and apologize to her, she definitely won't blame you."

"When are we going to break off the engagement with the Qin family? If we don't break off the engagement with the Qin family first, I'll go to Qinqin. Wouldn't that be considered improper conduct? Qinqin will also suspect that I have ulterior motives."

Oh right, he remembered that Li Qinqin said he had a new boyfriend today. She must be jealous of him.

As long as he breaks off the engagement with the Qin family and shows his loyalty to Li Qinqin, she will definitely accept him again, since she liked him so much before.

Mr. Zhang hesitated: "We just broke off our engagement with the Li family not long ago, and now we're breaking off our engagement with the Qin family so soon? What will the villagers think of our family?"

"Let them think what they want. We'll live our own lives, why should we care so much?" Zhang's mother didn't seem to care much.
