Battalion level?
Everyone looked surprised.
It's important to understand that a battalion commander is already close to the middle management level in the army.
Moreover, what are the components of the Floating Army?
That's the most powerful trump card in Fengfu!
Moreover, Zhao Chen has just graduated and is still so young. His future is limitless!
"Brother Chen, you're awesome! You're about to become a high-ranking official!"
"Brother Zhao, don't forget us when you become successful!"
Everyone showered him with compliments, and two girls, in particular, looked on with intense longing. If Lan Ling hadn't been there, they would have clung to Zhao Chen.
A girl next to Lanling nudged her and said, "Lanling, you're so lucky to have found such a successful husband!"
Lan Ling curled her lip in disdain and said, "If you think he's good, then you can have him!"
That expression was utterly contemptuous, as if he were throwing away a piece of trash.
Zhao Chen, who was initially quite happy to be praised by everyone, immediately turned pale upon hearing this.
"Lan Ling, what nonsense are you spouting?!"
Everyone wore an awkward expression.
The girl next to Lan Ling quickly pushed her, saying, "Lan Ling, you've had too much to drink! Don't say anything inappropriate in this kind of situation!"
"Who's talking nonsense!" Lan Ling sneered disdainfully, glancing at the other girls and saying mockingly, "I know you all like Zhao Chen, fine! I'll just let you have him, whoever likes him can take him!"
brush!
Zhao Chen suddenly stood up, trembling with anger, and gritted his teeth, saying, "Lan Ling, are you deliberately trying to make things difficult for me today?"
Lan Ling glanced at him and said calmly, "That's right, I'm just going to make things difficult for you! If you're not satisfied, you can break off the engagement! There are so many people here today who can be your witnesses!"
"You!" Zhao Chen's face grew even uglier, but he was helpless.
Firstly, the Zhao family and the Lan family have cooperated for many years and the Zhao family has always been dependent on the Lan family. This marriage is of great significance to the Zhao family, and he dares not make the decision on his own.
In addition, Lan Ling was a famous beauty in the region, and her reputation was even comparable to Jiang Xinxin's. Naturally, he was also attracted to her beauty.
Lan Ling said with a sneer, "See? I told you, you're spineless! Zhao Chen, let me tell you the truth, I've looked down on you from the very beginning. Compared to Ziming, you're far inferior! Me, Ziming, and you—we're all in the same class, classmates for three years, and we've grown up together! Even if you're thinking of that, you shouldn't have given false testimony for Jiang Xinxin and kicked her when she was down!!"
By the end, Lan Ling practically shouted it out.
These were words she had suppressed for a long time, and now she finally couldn't help but let them out.
Wow!
The surrounding crowd erupted in uproar.
"What's going on? Perjury?"
"That one, is that Miss Lan? She's a major shipping tycoon in the area! And this one, is the eldest son of the Zhao family. The Zhao family is a subsidiary of the Lan family. It's said that the contraband that the young marquis found was transported by the Zhao family's shipping. Later, when the case was filed, it was the Zhao family who testified!"
"From what Miss Lan is saying..."
"Shh! Don't talk nonsense! The Huang family's matter is already settled. This is not something we should discuss!"
There was a murmur of whispers all around.
At this moment, Lin Yu, who had been sitting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and clenched his fists!
At this moment, Zhao Chen, who was standing there, was extremely embarrassed. He clenched his fists and finally sat down.
"Lan Ling, I know this has been bothering you! But this is my family's decision, and I believe my dad would never lie. No one would dare to lie about something this big!" Zhao Chen said coldly.
Lan Ling chuckled lightly, "Whether you're lying or not, you know the truth in your hearts! But Jiang Xinxin has been quite considerate to your family. On the day your father appeared in court, she introduced a big order to your Zhao family. Hehe, it's a pity she's not in logistics. Otherwise, given the nature of your Zhao family, they would probably be eager for you to fawn over her, right? Why did you have to come here to be my lapdog!"
Everyone was stunned.
Lan Ling's words were anything but merciful.
They directly compared Zhao Chen to a dog!
Putting aside the fact that he's your fiancé, he's now a military officer, so you should at least give him some face, right?
Zhao Chen's face completely lost its composure. He stood up abruptly, walked over, and grabbed Lan Ling's arm.
"Hey, what are you doing? Let go!" Lan Ling immediately tried to break free.
But Zhao Chen held her tightly and said coldly, "You've had too much to drink. I don't think we need to participate in this auction anymore. Let's go outside and sober up!"
"I'm not going, I..."
Lan Ling was indeed a bit drunk and didn't have much strength, so Zhao Chen pulled her away.
Before long, the two arrived outside. Zhao Chen pushed him directly into an Alphard and gestured to the driver with his lip.
The driver nodded, immediately got out of the car, and locked the doors.
At this moment, only Lan Ling and Zhao Chen remained in the car!
Lan Ling had regained consciousness by now and immediately became nervous. "What... what do you want to do?"
Zhao Chen took a deep breath. "Lan Ling, I've always given in to you since we were little, but you're going too far now! I know you like Huang Ziming, but you don't need to humiliate me like this, do you? I'm your fiancé, your future husband. Do you really need to humiliate me in public for the sake of a dead man?"
"husband?"
Lan Ling chuckled lightly, and said disdainfully, "Did I agree to that? Did I say I wanted to marry you?"
