Chapter 7 Being Protected



"You are still unmarried and let Linglong live in your house. Have you ever thought about what others think? Even if you don't care, what about the impact on Linglong, a girl?" Zheng Tiansen said in a stern tone.

Tong Dazhu blushed and admitted his mistake. "I didn't consider Zhou Pei."

Only then did Zheng Tiansen's expression relax.

"You and Auntie, keep the matter Linglong Zhi mentioned in the car secret and don't mention it to anyone. Commissioner Hao and I have already started an investigation."

When this was mentioned, Tong Dazhu immediately assured him, "Don't worry, Captain, I'm very tight-lipped."

After saying that, he asked curiously again: "He is really from our regiment, Captain, Linglong Zhi, who is this bastard, cough, whose family member is he?" He almost called out "bastard".

"Until this matter is fully investigated, everything needs to be kept secret. However, since you already know some of the inside story, I might as well tell you a little more."

After hearing this, Tong Dazhu immediately felt that he had gained the trust of the team leader and sat up straighter.

In fact, Zheng Tiansen was just afraid that Liu Baogen and Tong Dazhu, an honest man, would get too close to each other and find out that Linglong had also joined the army, which would cause trouble again.

"Linglong Xiaozhi and Liu Baogen have some relationship." Although he hasn't investigated it clearly, he inexplicably doesn't want to call the two of them husband and wife.

"Ah? Then why doesn't Liu Baogen know Linglong Zhi?" Tong Dazhu was surprised.

"That's why we're investigating. First, sir, don't mention Linglong Qizhi to anyone, especially Liu Baogen."

Tong Dazhu is honest, but not really stupid. Linglong mentioned divorce in the car, and Liu Baogen is of marriageable age.

Tong Dazhu was extremely angry as he guessed that Liu Baogen was probably the "bastard" and unfaithful man.

"I will never mention Linglong Zhi in front of him." The posture was just short of swearing.

Not only would he not mention it, he would hate Liu Baogen even if he saw him again.

Afraid that he would cause trouble due to his recklessness, Zheng Tiansen did not forget to remind him.

"Don't cause trouble for him, okay?" How could he not understand the soldiers under his command?

Tong Dazhu felt embarrassed when his little secret was exposed. "I know."

"Auntie, you know what to say."

"kindness."

After Tong Dazhu left, Zheng Tiansen pinched his brows. These people were really troublesome and he had to take care of them all.

Coincidentally, Tong Dazhu had just left Huidong when he ran into Liu Baogen who came looking for him.

Liu Baogen was thinking that he had a close relationship with Captain Tong and the regiment commander, so it was not easy for him to directly approach the regiment commander to maintain the relationship. However, he could go to Captain Tong to consolidate the relationship under the pretext of caring about the military families.

Just seeing him come in, Tong Dazhu almost got angry.

If he hadn't kept the captain's teachings in mind, he wouldn't have wanted to talk to Liu Baogen and would have kicked him out.

"What are you doing here?" he asked with a straight face.

"Captain, um, is Auntie okay? I left in a hurry, and I don't know how you guys are doing."

"My mother is fine. Do you have anything else to do?" After saying that, he looked like he was about to leave.

Liu Baogen felt a little embarrassed. "No, it's okay."

As he walked to the door, he stopped and couldn't help asking, "Battalion Commander, who is the female volunteer who saved people?"

Before he could finish his words, Tong Dazhu, his face already darkening, roared. "You already have a partner, why are you so concerned about a woman's character? Do you even know the rules? I think you've had too few training missions lately, so you still have the energy to think about random things."

Liu Baogen, whose face turned pale after being criticized, left in a hurry.

Tong Dazhu was not done yet. He called in Liu Baogen's direct company commander and gave him a lecture. He did not mention Liu Baogen directly, but only said that the discipline of the soldiers under him was lax and their morale was low, and that they needed to be trained more and tightened up.

Some people knew that Liu Baogen ran away after being scolded by Tong Dazhu because of his loud voice.

When the company commander returned to Dong, he was displeased with Liu Baogen, who had been scolded for causing him trouble.

This kid used to be quite smooth-talking, but how come he suddenly offended the battalion commander and brought bad luck to his entire company.

Because of Liu Baogen, the entire company intensified their training, and others also complained.

Zheng Tiansen knew about this and mentioned it to Tong Dazhu when he passed by.

"Don't overdo it. Didn't I just warn you?"

"Captain, you don't know. That brat actually had the nerve to come to me and ask about Linglong's affairs. That's when I got furious. Don't worry, I didn't mention Linglong's affairs a single word. I just scolded him and sent him off."

Tong Dazhu had no idea that his words had revealed his suspicions about Liu Baogen's secret.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Tiansen's expression turned grim. "Well, well done. It's time to practice more."

Tong Dazhu was so proud of the compliment that he was like a little chicken. "I promise to complete the task."

Linglong didn't know yet that some people had already begun to secretly protect her because of her "kindness".

She had wasted many years in the Liu family, without any merit, but had also worked hard to be filial for many years. However, what she got in return was a heartbreaking attempt to murder her.

She had saved the man on the platform with good intentions, and she had never thought of any reward, but it had already made the two people's talents begin to tilt towards her.

Perhaps it was Zheng Tiansen's words that worked, or perhaps it was the atmosphere in the army that made people feel at ease, Linglong slept well in the guesthouse without any nightmares.

In the morning, I was awakened by the wake-up call. Linglong smiled, stayed in bed for a while, and then washed up.

Perhaps because she had never had the experience of living in the army and being woken up by the reveille in her previous life, she found it quite interesting.

After washing up, she heard a knock on the door. It was Xiao Jiang Zhizhi who came to deliver the meal on time.

This time, after the meal was delivered, Xiao Jiang did not leave immediately.

"Our team leader said that they have already started the investigation and asked Linglong Zhi to rest assured. However, we would like to ask you to stay in the guesthouse for a few more days and not leave easily."

Even if Zheng Tiansen didn't pass on the message, Linglong didn't dare to leave the guesthouse and move around casually. After all, she didn't know anyone here.

Moreover, Liu Baogen is also here.

"I understand. Thank your leader for me."

How could the other party be so polite, and there is no such thing as an "investigation".

Xiao Jiang felt that he had guessed wrong about the relationship between Linglong and the team leader, and felt a little embarrassed.

"If you need any help, Linglong, just tell me. If there is anything I can do, just come to me." After all, the team leader is so busy, it would be better for him to help the team leader as much as possible if he can.

"Okay, thank you."

Xiao Jiang left with a red face, and brought back Linglong's gratitude.

"Is she okay in every way?"

"I think Linglong Xizhi is doing well, Captain. Linglong Xizhi has been staying in the guesthouse and can't leave. Should we get her something to cheer her up?"

After all, a young girl would feel bored if she was locked up all the time.

Zheng Tiansen glanced at him. "You seem quite worried."

Xiao Jiang scratched his head embarrassedly.

Zheng Tiansen walked to his bookshelf and was about to pick out two books when he suddenly stopped.

He didn't know whether Linglong was illiterate or not. If he sent a book to her, it would be embarrassing if she couldn't understand it.

After all, the illiteracy rate at that time was still quite high. Most people only knew their own names, and it was good enough if they could recognize some simple common characters.

Linglong Zhizhi lived in the countryside, and was a "child bride".

After thinking for a while, he rummaged through boxes and drawers for a long time before he found a comic book.

Fortunately, he remembered correctly.

"Give this to Linglong Zhi."

Although Xiao Jiang was surprised that such a serious person like the leader could have something as childish as a comic book, he still quickly took the things and left.

Linglong who collects comic strips???

Are you treating her like a child?

Linglong just thought it was funny. Captain Zheng was quite interesting.
