This was probably the first time Qin Zhen had ever lost her temper so badly with her brother-in-law.
Ma Zhixuan was completely stunned.
He stared at Qin Zhen in disbelief, not understanding what he had done wrong.
Gong Yi, who was standing to the side, pulled Hua Mi a little further away.
"Come on, I want to take you home."
After walking a little further, Gong Yi gave Hua Mi another few instructions.
“This young master Ma from City C doesn’t seem to be very clear-headed. You should avoid associating with him in the future.”
Hua Mi rolled her eyes at Gong Yi, feeling that he looked more like her father than her husband.
"Do I look like such an idiot? I could tell a long time ago that this person isn't smart."
After leaving the red-light district, Hua Mi noticed that Ma Zhixuan didn't seem too worried about Qin Xiaolan.
Now, however, he is able to openly instruct Gong Yi for Qin Xiaolan's sake, and even dare to give the commander's wife a hard time.
Although Hua Mi didn't appreciate the diplomacy of the ladies, she could still imagine Qin Zhen's inner anger.
At the entrance of the emergency room, Qin Zhen was so angry that she didn't even go for her prenatal checkup. She turned around and walked towards her car with her pregnant belly.
Ma Zhixuan hurriedly caught up, following behind Qin Zhen, and asked loudly and aggrievedly:
"Sister-in-law, why did you hit me? What did I say wrong today?"
Qin Xiaolan has indeed gone missing. As the commander of the garrison, shouldn't he be responsible for this?
Amidst the gentle, falling snow, Qin Zhen stopped, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath.
She turned around and looked at Ma Zhixuan.
"Your mistake is that you take yourself too seriously and you take a trivial human life too seriously."
“Zhixuan, your brother sent you to Xiangcheng not because Xiangcheng is the safest city of all, but so that you can use your strength to connect Xiangcheng and City C more deeply.”
"No one knows what the future holds."
"The only thing we know is that in this magical world, the death rate is skyrocketing. Maybe one day, you and I, or even your brother, will be among those corpses."
"That's a bit harsh," Ma Zhixuan frowned, looking at Qin Zhen with a hint of disagreement.
"Sister-in-law, why are you even cursing my brother?"
Qin Zhen chuckled, and in no time, a layer of fine white snowflakes covered her exquisitely styled curly hair.
“Ma Yongchun is shrewd all his life, but he has a muddle-headed younger brother like you. I wonder what your older brother would think if he knew what you did today.”
Some problems cannot be ignored by simply covering your ears and eyes.
How long has it been since the sun came out? Even at its brightest, the streetlights in Xiangcheng are still on.
At this moment, Ma Zhixuan told Qin Zhen to watch his mouth and not to curse people.
Qin Zhen was almost laughing in exasperation at Ma Zhixuan.
She said to Ma Zhixuan with eyes full of disappointment,
“From today onwards, I don’t want to care about you anymore. You can do whatever you want, except leave Xiangcheng.”
She had already figured it out: Ma Zhixuan had never suffered any hardship from childhood to adulthood.
Even when disaster struck, he was well protected by Ma Yongchun and Qin Zhen.
A child who hasn't been weaned hasn't grown up at all; psychologically, Ma Zhixuan is frighteningly naive.
In the past, Qin Zhen thought that it was not a bad thing for boys to be simple-minded, but today's incident gave her a wake-up call.
City C now relies entirely on City Xiang for survival, and regardless of Hua Mi's character, she is someone City C cannot afford to offend.
A child whose emotions are easily read on their face and who is still psychologically immature is simply not suitable for the treacherous world of diplomacy.
Qin Zhen had heard about Hua Mi's ruthlessness, but today Hua Mi was in a good mood and did not retaliate against Ma Zhixuan's repeated provocations.
If they find a secluded spot, Hua Mi could kill Ma Zhixuan without anyone noticing, and Qin Zhen wouldn't even know.
Even if Qin Zhen knew, what could he do? He would still have to greet Hua Mi with a smile.
In the adult world, there aren't so many black and white issues; most things are gray areas.
Qin Zhen walked away into the snow, which was falling heavier and heavier, leaving Ma Zhixuan standing alone in the same spot.
A short while later, Ma Zhixuan received a transfer on his phone.
Qin Zhen stopped caring about Ma Zhixuan and simply kept him in Xiangcheng. As long as Ma Zhixuan didn't leave Xiangcheng, he could do whatever he wanted.
As soon as she reached her car, she immediately instructed the driver,
"Prepare some gifts that the newborn baby can use. Let's go see Mrs. Gong."
Just as Hua Mi was dropped off at the RV supermarket by Gong Yi, Cao Feng immediately came up to Gong Yi and asked for her prenatal checkup report.
Gong Yi glanced sideways at Cao Feng's matter-of-fact attitude and asked:
Why should I give you my wife's prenatal checkup report?
Cao Feng stood at attention, his face serious, and said...
"Commander, everyone wants to know Sister Hua's prenatal checkup report as soon as possible. Because you are the child's father, we have been reluctant to ask you for the report immediately. Please cooperate."
"What?"
Gong Yi frowned.
"Tell me carefully, what are you trying to do?"
Judging from Cao Feng's attitude, it's like he's going to snatch the child away. Is he sure he's got the social standing right?
Gong Yi is the father of the two daughters, right?
Cao Feng sighed, as if he were explaining to an outsider.
This is a massive baby-raising plan involving over 5,000 garrison personnel. Because their commander is extremely busy and rarely accompanies Sister Hua to prenatal checkups, everyone shows the utmost understanding towards the commander.
But actually, it was already arranged today that three other team leaders would accompany Sister Hua to her prenatal checkup; this was all planned out.
The three garrison squad leaders have even had their posts reassigned.
Everyone is working very hard.
The garrison officer responsible for telling jokes now has to memorize 10 jokes every day and make sure he knows them by heart.
The garrison officer in charge of taking care of postpartum women would read the maternal and infant care manual every day.
The garrison personnel responsible for childcare are currently studying early childhood education, preschool education, primary school education, and secondary school adolescence.
However, the arrival of the commander disrupted the plan for the 5,000+ garrison, and everyone had some reservations about it.
Nobody said anything.
After hearing this, Gong Yi pointed at Cao Feng with one finger, his finger trembling with anger.
"What kind of plan is this? Why wasn't a report submitted for my approval? You're acting on your own initiative!"
Should this also be approved? Cao Feng looked at Gong Yi with some hesitation. They both felt that this was a private matter and had nothing to do with protecting the city and the survivors.
These are private matters outside of their official duties.
Why do we still need to submit a report to our superiors?
Gong Yi clutched Hua Mi's prenatal checkup report and yelled at him.
"What are you guys trying to do? Go do your own thing, you're just causing me trouble all day long!"
Why should he cooperate? If he cooperates with these idiots, what is he, as a proper father, supposed to do?
There will still be three updates today.
