Xiao Jing wasn't about to back down like that, so she pulled Tian Yu along and followed them out. "Xiao Jing, what are you doing?"

"I need to see what's going on with this Jiang Qiao. You know, a student like her shouldn't be here instead of going to school. There's definitely something fishy going on. Maybe she's up to something."

Although Tian Yu was friends with Xiao Jing, she didn't really approve of Xiao Jing's actions at this moment. "What she does is none of our business. Can't she just ask for leave? She's not a prisoner; why shouldn't she have this much freedom?"

Jiang Qiao noticed two people sneaking around behind her and immediately became unhappy. She turned around and came face to face with Xiao Jing.

"What do you want to do, Xiao Jing? Remember what I said, don't mess with me. You know better than anyone who I am."

If you don't understand, go back and ask your father whether what you did today was right or wrong.

If your father says you're doing the right thing, then I'll personally go to Commander Xiao to discuss how to educate the children.

This made Xiao Jing's face even more unpleasant. Her father had warned her before that it was best not to mess with Jiang Qiao. Someone who could earn a first-class merit and receive and praise from the old commander-in-chief was no ordinary person.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jing felt a cold sweat break out on her back. How could she have forgotten her father's instructions?

Jiang Qiao was about to turn and leave when Xiao Jing called her back.

"Jiang Qiao, I beg you, can you give Ning Hao to me? I really like him."

Jiang Qiao turned around and looked coldly at Xiao Jing, "Ning Hao is not some object that can be transferred at will. Also, as I said before, that's between you two. Don't come after me. You're a grown man, you don't need me to teach you, do you?"

Let me give you a piece of advice: forced relationships are never sweet. You understand this better than I do. Ning Hao's attitude towards you is a matter between the two of you and has nothing to do with me.

Also, stop following me. What I do is none of your business. Don't pressure me.

After saying that, she turned and left. She couldn't understand why Xiao Jing's attitude had suddenly changed.

On second thought, she understood what was going on. It seemed that attending the awards ceremony was worthwhile, at least it made some people wary.

Tian Yu pulled her best friend along, her face not looking too good. Although the place was a bit remote, there were still passersby. The way they looked at the two of them made her feel really embarrassed.

It's not fair to call it bullying when a grown woman goes and talks to a younger girl about this, but in her heart, she really doesn't approve of Xiao Jing's actions.

Besides, what that young girl said was absolutely right. Judging from her appearance, she didn't take Xiao Jing seriously at all. Especially with her demeanor and aura, she herself wouldn't believe that she didn't have some kind of background.

"Hey, Xiao Jing, what are you doing? This has nothing to do with that young girl."

Ning Hao rejected you because he doesn't like you. Why should you force it? There are plenty of men in the world, so why hang yourself on this one tree?

Tell me, how many times has he rejected you? If he had even a little bit of affection for you, he wouldn't have done this. You should just give up.

Xiao Jing smiled bitterly, "You don't understand, Tian Yu. You haven't met Ning Hao. He is really outstanding and a very good person. Everyone who has met him speaks highly of him."

Tian Yu sighed, "No matter how good this person is, they're not your type. You have the right to pursue them, but you also have to be prepared to be rejected. If you don't like someone, you don't like them. Only mutual affection can lead to marriage."

What kind of behavior is this, begging a young girl? Nobody does that! You've wasted all those years of schooling; don't you understand this basic principle?

What could Xiao Jing say? She had no chance of winning against Jiang Qiao. Whether it was in terms of words or appearance, that girl was far superior to her.

Her only advantage was her family background; after all, Jiang Qiao's father was a brigade commander, but not as high-ranking as her father.

Tian Yu dragged Xiao Jing away quickly; she felt very ashamed about what had happened today.

On their way back, Tian Yu continued to try to persuade Xiao Jing.

However, Xiao Jing herself wasn't sure whether her friend would listen to her advice.

Although the two families were on good terms and they had played together since childhood, they had been separated for so long and only communicated through letters, so she still couldn't really understand this person.

"Why don't you come to my house for a while?"

Xiao Jing shook her head. "No, I'd rather not. I'm a little nervous seeing your dad. Anyway, I have a holiday, I'll come visit you later."

Xiao Jing was thinking in the car that Jiang Qiao had humiliated her time and time again, and she had to get revenge. However, she couldn't do it on her own. She had to go back and have a good talk with her mother to try and get her father's help.

When Xiao Jun returned from his vacation in high spirits, he saw his beloved daughter pouting and looking unhappy.

"What's wrong? Who upset my daughter? Tell Dad."

Xiao Jing snorted, "It's all because of that Jiang Qiao, that brat. I begged her so much, and she still humiliated me. Dad, please help me. Transfer Ning Hao to your command, and let's see if he agrees."

Commander Xiao may dote on his daughter, but he wouldn't let this cloud his judgment. Upon hearing the news, the old man's face immediately fell.

"Xiao Jing, how did I teach you to be a decent person? Although you are free to date now, Ning Hao doesn't agree, so you shouldn't keep pestering him. What will outsiders think of me and you?"

Do you know that there have already been rumors circulating? As a young woman, you'd better be mindful of your behavior.

Besides, Ning Hao isn't suitable either. They're not a good match. I've already told you about his family situation.

Putting aside the fact that they don't like you, even if they did, I would still agree to be with them.

To put it nicely, that person has no connections; to put it bluntly, his family is a mess, especially his father, who will inevitably affect his son's future sooner or later. Why are you messing around with someone who has no future? Go back home and farm with him.

Let me tell you, this matter ends here. You'd better not mess with Jiang Qiao. She can get nominated for merit and awards by the military. Do you think she's a simple person?

Especially since this person was received by a high-ranking leader, if nothing goes wrong, fine, but if something happens to her, you'll be the first one to get away with it.

"Don't get any funny ideas. Remember what Song Shutian said: that girl is under his protection. Do you think Song Shutian is someone to mess with?"

Commander Xiao couldn't be bothered with this unreasonable girl, and instead took his anger out on his wife.

“Look at the good daughter you raised, she embarrasses me everywhere. Do you know that my comrades have called me? This brat Jiang Ran even went to Ning Hao’s unit and caused a scene. She’s really shameful.”

Commander Xiao's wife gently comforted her husband, "Don't be angry. This girl is just being willful for a moment. You know what kind of person our child is, right? She's still young. I'll talk to her properly these next few days. She's still young and doesn't understand social etiquette. Don't be angry, we'll eat in a bit."
