Chapter 106 Zhou Jianguo Arrives at the Family Quarters
The next morning
"Bang, bang, bang."
Gu Yihan was awakened by the knocking on the door of the courtyard. When she opened her eyes, she found that she was alone in the bedroom.
She was wearing a white shirt, black pants, and leather shoes. After tidying herself up, she left the bedroom.
As soon as Gu Yihan entered the living room, she was startled by the dense crowd of people standing inside.
She looked around to see where Lu Huailin was, when she was met with a cold, sharp gaze.
Just as Gu Yihan was feeling uneasy, Lu Huailin's voice came: "Xiaohan, I've prepared the water for you. Go wash up quickly."
Gu Yihan seemed to hear the most beautiful sound in the world, and strode towards the kitchen.
She whispered to Lu Huailin, "Why are there so many people at home? I have to go to work later!"
Lu Huailin poured her water to wash her face and put toothpaste on her toothbrush, placing it on Gu Yihan's right side.
He then patiently explained, "You don't need to go to work today. The military has already granted you leave from the textile factory."
Gu Yihan paused in washing her face, looked up, her expression turning cold, and said in a chilling voice, "Who asked for my permission?"
Lu Huailin stepped forward to grab Gu Yihan's arm, but she shook him off.
Lu Huailin was also forced into a corner, so he could only comfort Gu Yihan and say softly, "This is not something that you and I can decide."
Gu Yihan pursed her lips and remained silent. After quickly washing up, she wanted to go straight back to her bedroom, but was stopped by a male voice.
A handsome man walked up to Gu Yihan and leaned down in an inviting gesture: "Comrade Gu, let's talk!"
Gu Yihan looked at the other person warily and sneered, "Are there things wrong with your eyes? They look like they're having a spasm."
She looked you up and down carefully again: "You are good-looking, but it's your fault for attracting attention like this."
Don't think she didn't see it just now; this womanizing man was just mocking Lu Huailin.
Lu Huailin pretended not to hear, but he was secretly laughing inside.
Leng Xiao has used his good looks to trick young women and wives into talking to him since he was a child.
He casually poured water for the two elderly middle-aged men in the room.
One of the middle-aged men chuckled at Lu Huailin and said, "You've married a rather cautious wife."
Lu Huailin placed the water glass in front of him, his eyes revealing a hint of pride, but he said modestly, "Commander Tang, you're joking. She's just timid."
Commander Tang's loud laughter rang out: "Haha, you're not being honest, but your wife has quite the nerve."
"Most people wouldn't dare to look Lao Hu in the eye when they see me and Lao Hu, but she can look us straight in the eye. Is she timid? Lao Hu, isn't she?"
Another middle-aged man sitting on the wooden sofa nodded coldly upon hearing Commander Tang's words.
The two were talking loudly in the living room, and Gu Yihan could hear them clearly from the bedroom.
Gu Yihan was stunned. She hadn't expected that these two middle-aged men were actually the top leaders of this military region.
Forgive her, she's just a nobody; in her past life, the highest-ranking people she'd ever met were her university professors.
An elderly man with white hair ran nimbly, shouting, "They're out! They're out!"
"This is simply a miracle! The wounds are healing so quickly; our soldiers are saved."
After shouting, the old man burst into tears. His son had died on the battlefield from excessive blood loss due to delayed medical treatment.
Commander Tang and Commander Hu quickly stood up and asked excitedly, "Old Tong, are you sure this medicine will work?"
The white-haired old man was so angry that his nose was crooked: "You can question my character, but you can't question my pharmaceutical skills."
"So you've produced the finished medicine?" Commander Tang and Commander Hu asked in unison.
Master Tong's smile froze, and he started yelling at the two of them, "Come on, you two do it yourselves. Your actions and words are like farts, just blow them with your mouths!"
"If it were that easy, would that hamster spirit be able to exchange things for us? A bunch of uncultured big shots."
After finishing his explanation, Master Tong carefully carried the results of his repeated experiments back to another room.
Commander Tang and Commander Hu called Lu Huailin into the courtyard.
They looked Lu Huailin up and down and said, "Your wife can't leave Kunming these next few days."
"It will take some time to investigate from Kuncheng to your wife's hometown, and your wife will need to cooperate with the investigation."
Lu Huailin was about to refuse when he was interrupted by Commander Hu's cold voice: "Since that vixen came to find your wife, why not investigate and question her thoroughly?"
Commander Hu glanced at Lu Huailin, then said, "You want your wife to be tied to that vixen in the same way..."
Commander Hu didn't finish his sentence, only hinting at it.
Lu Huailin's face was very ugly, and his eyes narrowed slightly: "Commander Hu, aren't those your words harsh?"
"Besides, my wife has no selfish motives whatsoever. If she did, wouldn't it be better for her to exchange these medicines with the little hamster herself than to hand them over?"
"She trusted you so much, and she trusted the country so much."
"It's one thing if you don't protect her, but anyone who dares to plot against her behind her back will have to ask the Lu family for permission first."
After Lu Huailin finished speaking, he went straight back to the bedroom, hugged Gu Yihan tightly, and comforted her back.
Gu Yihan was puzzled. She rested her head on his chest, listening to his strong and powerful heartbeat, and felt very at ease.
Lu Huailin's deep voice rang out: "Don't worry, I'll protect you."
Gu Yihan knew she had oversimplified things this time, and gave a soft "hmm" with a thick nasal tone.
...
For the next two days, people were constantly coming and going in the courtyard. They were also very cautious, and even Gu Yihan's neighbors on both sides of the house did not notice.
Military district gate, family compound entrance
Zhou Jianguo and Gu Aidang, wearing their sour clothes, walked up to the gatekeeper.
Zhou Jianguo looked at the soldier blocking his way and said fiercely, "I am the father of your Commander Lu's wife. What right do you have to stop me from entering?"
The guard remained unmoved and said, "You need someone from the family compound to sign for it before you are eligible to enter."
Gu Aidang stood aside and watched, without going up to argue with the soldier.
Gu Aidang came to the Kuncheng Military Region only to testify for Zhou Jianguo and identify Gu Yihan as Zhou Jianguo's child.
Zhou Jianguo was still arguing with the gatekeeper when a bright female voice rang out.
"Oh, whose family are you?" Qiao Shuhui asked Zhou Jianguo and his companion arrogantly.
Zhou Jianguo quickly stepped forward and said, "I am Gu Yihan's biological father. This child is silly; she didn't even tell us she was getting married."
Qiao Shuhui's eyes flashed, and she smiled as she said to the guards, "Let them in, I'll sign the papers."
"We're all children, how could we bear to see our father exposed to the scorching sun outside?"
Qiao Shuhui escorted Zhou Jianguo and Gu Aidang to the entrance of Gu Yihan's courtyard.
Just as she was about to turn around, she was stunned by Zhou Jianguo's bizarre actions. Instead of knocking on the door, he kicked open the courtyard gate.
Just as she was about to look up and curse, a group of soldiers carrying guns came out of the courtyard and surrounded Qiao Shuhui and her two companions.
