"You want something? What do you want?"
Xue Yanchen didn't answer him, just glanced at him indifferently, and left.
Zhao Jun couldn't understand why Xue Yanchen was so anxious to ask Commander Li for something. Did Commander Li still owe him something?
Huh?
Is he eager to become the Li family's son-in-law?
Ha, he talks a good game, promising to be loyal to Luo Zhiqing. The moment he told him that the Li family's daughter had taken a liking to him, he couldn't wait to go to her house, as if he was afraid she would change her mind and leave him the next second.
You're asking for things? I think you're trying to buy things and deliver them to him. You're rushing to please your father-in-law, wanting to become his live-in son-in-law.
"Hmph, Xue, you scumbag. If you really change your mind, I'll immediately tell Luo Zhiqing and see how she deals with you."
Thinking about this, he suddenly became very interested. Luo Jingyan had also practiced martial arts. If she and Xue Yanchen were to fight, who would win?
Let's wait and see.
Xue Yanchen went directly to the Li family's door and knocked.
It was such a coincidence that Li Xue was the one who opened the door.
Li Xue was puzzled as to why he had come in person, but she was still somewhat excited that he had taken the initiative to visit her.
She hoped that he had changed his mind and was willing to date her.
She quickly made way for him, "Battalion Commander Xue, what's the matter? Come in and talk."
Xue Yanchen didn't move. His expression was indifferent as he asked Li Xue, "I want to know if Commander Li is at home."
Li Xue was somewhat disappointed; it turned out he hadn't come to see her after all.
“My dad went out on something and isn’t home right now.”
Do you know where he went?
Li Xue shook her head: "It seems that the driver took him outside the military region, but I don't know exactly where they went."
"Alright, sorry to bother you."
Xue Yanchen turned around and left without any hesitation.
Li Xue stood blankly at the door for a long time before going in and slamming the door shut with a loud bang.
When Xue Yanchen returned to the dormitory, Zhao Jun was still there.
As soon as he entered, the other person gave him a gossipy look.
He looked rather dejected. Could it be that he had been eager to become someone's son-in-law, but they didn't want him anymore?
Xue Yanchen noticed his gossipy nature, but he didn't say anything and simply took the basin to the washroom to wash up.
The next morning, after he got up and washed up, he was about to go outside to find Luo Jingyan and Grandma Xue when two young military officers suddenly walked towards him and took him away.
"Battalion Commander Xue, someone has accused you of sexually harassing a village woman in the southern part of the province while you were on a mission a few days ago. They have now reported it to our military region."
"I molested a village woman?" Xue Yanchen's brows furrowed immediately.
Who exactly wants to harm him?
He quickly thought of one person: Commander Li.
He had only thought yesterday that Commander Li would force him out of the military region by making him retire, but he never expected this to happen today. It seems he had underestimated the ruthlessness of that old fox.
To save face and maintain their foothold here, they actually resorted to such tactics against him.
“During my mission, my identity was kept secret, and I strictly abided by the regulations of the military. I did not harm anyone, let alone molest village women.”
One of the officers holding him said in a sinister tone, "We all know the name of Battalion Commander Xue very well, but the facts are right in front of us, and you have no right to admit it. We are going to take you into custody now and wait for your superiors to judge you."
Xue Yanchen looked at the two of them and asked, "Who sent you to arrest me?"
"Both the division commander and the regimental commander have given orders to detain you first, pending investigation and interrogation."
Then, Division Commander Li came over with Regiment Commander Jiang, both of them with furrowed brows.
Division Commander Li seemed to be faking it, but Regiment Commander Jiang was genuinely showing his feelings.
Commander Li said, "Xiao Xue, I never expected something like this to happen. How could you take advantage of a mission to bully the women in the village? They've already complained to the army. You're about to be discharged, and now this has happened. We, the People's Liberation Army, are here to protect and serve the people. How could you bully them?"
"I didn't do such a thing." Xue Yanchen denied it outright, his tone firm. He looked at Commander Jiang: "Commander, others may not know what kind of person I am, but don't you know?"
When Commander Jiang met his meaningful gaze, he could only continue to frown. Although he understood Xue Yanchen's character, he was helpless at the moment.
"Yanchen, don't worry. That village woman has already filed a complaint with the military region, but we won't just listen to her side of the story. It's true that the People's Liberation Army protects and serves the people, but not just anyone can falsely accuse or insult them. We will conduct a thorough investigation into this matter. Once we find that you are innocent, we will release you immediately. Thank you for your hard work during this time."
Xue Yanchen clenched his fists so tightly that they made cracking sounds, and the veins on the back of his hands and forehead bulged.
He had always acted with integrity and honesty, and wholeheartedly wanted his country to be peaceful and his people to be safe. He never imagined that one day he would be so wronged by the very people he was protecting.
"Commander, Regimental Commander, where is that woman? I want to confront her face to face."
"Okay, but not here. Let's go to the interrogation room."
Commander Li gestured to the two officers holding Xue Yanchen, "Take him away."
The two officers immediately understood and pressed Xue Yanchen's arm firmly, escorting him to the interrogation room.
Xue Yanchen recognized the two officers, Zhang Ming and Chen Jing, both of whom were company commanders. They were in the same division as him, but not in the same regiment.
Xue Yanchen's arms were being twisted by them. He tried to pull them back a little, but Zhang Ming and Chen Jing tightened their grip at the same time.
Chen Jing said coldly, "Battalion Commander Xue, do you intend to run away?"
"I didn't mean to run away, but you were using too much force." It was as if you wanted to break his arm.
Chen Jing and Zhang Ming were also troubled. Even when they exerted force at the same time, Xue Yanchen was still able to resist, which made them even more resentful of Xue Yanchen.
The two had already discussed it when they arrived. This time, Xue Yanchen was in their hands, and they were determined to make him suffer.
