In her previous life, to escape confiscation and liquidation, Cen Yan married her stepmother's niece's son at the urging of her family.
She thought she could escape a calamity, but wh...
Chapter 171 Sending Qi Jingchuan to catch them in the act
Xiangyang Brigade, at the village entrance.
Qi Jingchuan is leading his comrades in the army, working hard to clear the stones and trees blocking the entire road, and striving to clear the access road to Xiangyang Brigade in the next two days.
This way, external relief supplies can get in and help the villagers of Xiangyang Brigade evacuate the floodwaters more effectively and quickly.
"Keep up the good work, and once the roads are cleared, we can call it a day and head back. We'll give you three days off to spend with your families. If your families aren't around, go for a stroll in the neighborhood."
Qi Jingchuan's noble and clear voice, neither too loud nor too soft, carried an undeniable firmness that struck everyone's hearts. After he finished speaking, he put his words into action and worked alongside his comrades.
When Pang Xiaoyue arrived, she saw the man's muscles bulging, his lips on his profile carrying a coldness, and his dark eyes like an eagle soaring in the sky, looking down on all living beings. For some reason, it made her heart tighten and she couldn't help but admire him.
"Commander Qi..." Pang Xiaoyue wanted to call him Brother Jingchuan, but she thought that such obvious flattery would inevitably annoy people, so she called Qi Jingchuan by his name in the army and walked over cautiously.
Qi Jingchuan paused for a moment, then said in a cold voice, "Comrade, this is a construction site, it's very slippery, please don't approach rashly!"
Pang Xiaoyue looked at Qi Jingchuan's handsome face, then lowered her head shyly. But she saw the man's long, straight, and powerful legs encased in his military trousers, which aroused her imagination.
Even though his clothes were covered in mud, it couldn't hide his tall, handsome features. Pang Xiaoyue couldn't help but blush and beckoned to the man.
"I won't go over, but can you come over, Commander Qi? I... I have something I want to tell you privately..." Pang Xiaoyue's words, like an obedient rabbit, drew a chorus of cheers from the men around her.
"Whispering! Commander, you're quite the ladies' man!"
"Be careful, your sister-in-law might find out and make you kneel on a washboard!"
Qi Jingchuan's heart trembled violently, and he coldly scanned everyone present.
“I’ve memorized all your faces.”
Everyone was stunned. What did this mean?
Some people are dull-witted, while others are clever; they quickly realized what Qi Jingchuan meant.
He tugged at the person next to him, "Get back to work! Isn't what the team leader meant? If today's events reach your wife's ears, it will be because one of us told on you. If one person tells on you, the whole team will suffer. Do you want to carry heavy loads and run 100 kilometers around Dongming Island?"
So that's the deeper meaning. How could the commander punish them? What if Pang Xiaoyue, that flirtatious woman, went to Cen Yan and said something? Wouldn't that ruin them? That Pang Xiaoyue is such a troublemaker!
No one dared to cause any more trouble.
Qi Jingchuan looked at Pang Xiaoyue coldly: "Speak your mind."
Pang Xiaoyue bit her lip and looked at everyone. "Commander Qi, are you sure you want me to say this here? This... this isn't appropriate..."
"Then don't say anything more." Qi Jingchuan had little patience for women, coldly tossing out a sentence before carrying the tools for clearing the road and walking to the other side.
As the man walked further and further away, Pang Xiaoyue panicked and quickly called out, "It's Cen Yan!"
"Commander Qi, I... I saw Cen Yan and a man go into the room. They were behaving intimately and laughing happily. It was the room Captain Xiang assigned you for temporary rest. The door was locked, and I don't know what Cen Yan and that man were doing inside. I couldn't think of anything else; I came to inform you immediately..."
Everyone was stunned when they heard Pang Xiaoyue's audacious voice. Did she mean that Cen Yan had cheated on Qi Jingchuan?
A dozen pairs of eyes fell on Qi Jingchuan's face, then slowly moved down to stare at the bulge in Qi Jingchuan's military pants. They hissed and then shook their heads frantically!
Get out! Get all those bad thoughts out of my head! The commander isn't some big tree with chili peppers hanging on it!
Cen Yan was too busy begging for mercy to possibly cheat on her husband with someone behind the leader's back.
The crowd's gazes toward Pang Xiaoyue grew increasingly hostile. Such a kind person as her sister-in-law had even treated over a hundred of their rescue team members to noodles; there was no way she could be the person Pang Xiaoyue described!
