Seeing this, Sister Luo thought something had happened to Mo Youyou and asked her anxiously.
"Huh?" Mo Youyou snapped out of her reverie. The turmoil in her heart left her with no energy to argue with the older women in the office. She looked at the clock on the wall and said mechanically, "Well, it's time. I'm going home now."
Then she packed her things and left.
The older women in the office found her reaction incredibly strange.
"Wow, she didn't even throw a tantrum today!"
"I find it strange!" The eldest sister, who had spoken out of turn earlier, thought she was going to have a fight with Mo Youyou, but she didn't expect that things wouldn't escalate.
"I reckon she's still not over it! After all, Brigade Commander Lu didn't even give her a second glance back then. She always thought highly of her father, but now that Brigade Commander Lu is on the same rank as her father, she can't be so smug!"
"That's actually quite possible..."
"Alright, alright, watch your mouths. Just say a few words behind her back, but don't say it to Youyou's face," Sister Luo reminded her.
Everyone seemed indifferent. After all, Mo Youyou was used to being spoiled and arrogant. Relying on her powerful backing, she often acted like a tyrant in the office, so naturally she couldn't get along with everyone.
On the way home, Mo Youyou's mind was in turmoil, constantly replaying the few words everyone was talking about.
"Lu Zhengjun has been promoted to brigade commander!"
"He's the undercover agent!"
"Such a young brigade commander, it's a stroke of luck for Dr. Su!"
Every word was like a knife stabbing into Mo Youyou's heart, causing her so much pain that even breathing became difficult.
How could this happen?
So seeing Lu Zhengjun that day wasn't a ghost. Su Yueya wasn't lying either; he really was on a mission, an undercover operation, and now he's returned safely, promoted to... brigade commander!
My father is getting old and has been sitting in the position of brigade commander for a long time, with little chance of promotion.
Now, is Lu Zhengjun, who is so young, already able to stand on equal footing with her father?
In other words, Lu Zhengjun has now climbed to the position of brigade commander, but what about higher positions? Will Lu Zhengjun be promoted to division commander in a few years? Mo Youyou didn't even dare to think about what would happen after that!
On what grounds?!
It's one thing for Lu Zhengjun to get promoted, but why should that lowly woman Su Yueya get to benefit from it?
What else can that slut do besides flirting? Why is she so lucky, getting all the good things in the world?
The more Mo Youyou thought about it, the angrier she became. If Su Yueya were in front of her right now, she would have rushed up and torn her to pieces!
We're both women, so why am I inferior to Su Yueya in every way?
She thought that by taking Liu Dekai away, she had won over Su Yueya, but now it seems that Liu Dekai has done nothing to earn face for Mo Youyou except for abandoning Su Yueya.
"Su Yueya, I will never stand against you—" Mo Youyou was gritting her teeth when she looked up and saw that the female soldier walking towards her from afar was none other than Su Yueya.
What a small world!
It seems even the heavens are against Su Yueya that she could run into this.
Mo Youyou strode over and blocked Su Yueya's path.
Su Yueya: "..."
Actually, she saw Mo Youyou too, but she originally wanted to avoid her.
Unfortunately, Mo Youyou had no intention of cooperating, which caused Su Yueya's plan to pretend not to see anything to fail.
"What do you want to do?" Su Yueya asked coldly.
She noticed that Mo Youyou's gaze was full of hostility, as if she wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible.
Should she take action? Su Yueya wasn't afraid of Mo Youyou, but she didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble, so she kept a close eye on the other party's movements to avoid any misunderstandings.
"Su Yueya, are you feeling quite smug?" Mo Youyou asked through gritted teeth.
Su Yueya: "..."
She really wanted to ask him, "Mo Youyou, are you trying to cause trouble?"
The truth is, Mo Youyou was indeed just looking for trouble.
"I don't understand what you're saying." Su Yueya's reaction remained indifferent. "If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."
She intended to go around Mo Youyou, but as soon as she moved, Mo Youyou moved as well, continuing to block her way out.
"Stop pretending," Mo Youyou sneered, her eyes surging with hatred. "Su Yueya, what I can't stand the most is your pretentious face. I know what you're thinking. Do you think you can be smug now that Lu Zhengjun has been promoted to brigade commander?"
Su Yueya: "..."
So that's what it was all for.
Su Yueya thought Mo Youyou was naive. She met him in the family compound that day and knew that Lu Zhengjun was not dead. Anyone with a brain could guess what he had been up to, so his promotion was not surprising.
To put it another way, what does Lu Zhengjun's promotion have to do with you, Mo Youyou? Aren't you the one who's actively looking for trouble?
"I don't need to explain these things to you. We're not that close." Su Yueya still intended to leave.
But her condescending attitude only hurt Mo Youyou more.
She knew Su Yueya was arrogant now and looked down on her!
"Don't go!" Mo Youyou shouted, grabbing Su Yueya's arm. "Su Yueya, you're a bitch—"
Su Yueya was furious. If they weren't still in the military base, she would have slapped him across the face.
I've never seen anyone come to my door and start cursing like this.
Mo Youyou was really making her want to put up with it no longer.
"Speak! Say what you have to say, finish speaking!" Su Yueya broke free from Mo Youyou's hand.
With her current strength, breaking free from Mo Youyou would be a piece of cake.
She pointed at Mo Youyou's face and threatened her.
"Mo Youyou, if you dare to say another word, I'll drag you by the hair right now to the boss's office and report you for insulting me. How do you think the boss will handle this?"
Su Yueya laughed. Didn't Mo Youyou think she was gloating over Lu Zhengjun's promotion?
How could I possibly disappoint her?
"I know you have powerful connections. Your dad is a brigade commander, right? He's incredibly powerful. He must have given your husband a lot of benefits, right? But what can you do? My mom is a division commander, and even my husband has been promoted to brigade commander, the same rank as your dad. Do you think you have more influence, or do you think my connections are stronger?"
Isn't this what Mo Youyou wanted to hear?
Su Yueya, feeling generous, decided to satisfy her desires once and for all, letting her listen to her to her heart's content.
"Besides, my husband just completed such an important task and is now a favorite of the leaders. Are you sure you want to publicly insult me at this time?"
After saying that, Su Yueya looked calmly at Mo Youyou and smiled gently, as if those "threatening" words were not spoken by her.
