After Mo Ruqing finished speaking, she kept a close eye on Lu Ze's expression.
She wanted to see on his face the helplessness he felt or his concern for her, even just a hint.
But she was disappointed.
Lu Ze's face was expressionless; he even looked at his new wife when he spoke to her.
After all this time, doesn't Lu Ze have any feelings for her at all?
Mo Ruqing felt both disappointed and frustrated.
Apart from Yu Yao, everyone else present had heard something about Lu Ze and Dr. Mo's affair.
Therefore, although he was surprised to see Mo Ruqing appear, he was not unexpected.
Qi Feng felt sorry for Yu Yao and wanted to say something, but Qin Ye covered his mouth, "Um, Qin Ye, what are you doing?"
"Shut up!" Qin Ye glared at him, then smiled and said to Lu Ze and Mo Ruqing, "You two chat first, Qi Feng and I will take Yu Yao to the cafeteria to wait for you."
Yu Yao felt the same way.
It was too late yesterday, and I didn't have time to ask Lu Ze. I'll bring it up after he finishes talking with Dr. Mo.
Yu Yao lifted her foot to follow, and then heard Lu Ze say, "No need to go. You can all be witnesses to what I'm about to say."
Upon hearing this, Mo Ruqing's face stiffened slightly.
He then resumed his amiable demeanor and said, "Commander Lu is right, esteemed leaders. I was mistaken earlier. It would be best if you were present for this matter."
After saying that, she smiled and said to Yu Yao, "You must be Comrade Yu Yao, Commander Lu's newlywed wife. Hello, Comrade Yu. I am a doctor from the island hospital. My name is Mo Ruqing. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Yu Yao had no idea what this woman was up to, so she politely extended her hand, shook it briefly, and then withdrew it.
The original book does not provide a detailed account of Dr. Mo's story.
It was only mentioned that this woman was not simple and had caused quite a stir in the military.
The book does not mention the specifics of the incident.
However, from the snippets of conversation by others, it can be discerned that this woman is definitely not as kind and approachable as she appears.
Seeing that her attitude was indifferent, Mo Ruqing did not take it to heart and explained, "I came to see Commander Lu this time to apologize."
"Apologize?" Qi Feng didn't understand and asked, "Apologize for what?"
The others were only vaguely aware of the situation, but Yu Yao and Lu Ze, the two parties involved, and Qin Ye, the insider, understood it clearly.
Mo Ruqing said apologetically, "It's about the rumors about Commander Lu and me. When Commander Lu was injured, I had more contact with him to help him get treatment, but I didn't expect everyone to misunderstand."
"When the rumors first came out, since they were completely unfounded, I felt that explaining them would only amplify the rumors, so I ignored them. After that, I was busy with work, and the matter was forgotten by me."
If I hadn't overheard my colleagues talking about it yesterday, I wouldn't have known it had gotten to this point. I should have come to clarify things yesterday, but I thought you'd all been busy since you just got back, so I didn't want to bother you. That's why I'm waiting here this morning.
"So that's how it is." Qi Feng suddenly realized and was the first to speak: "So, Dr. Mo and Lu Ze, you two never dated, and it was all just a rumor?"
Mo Ruqing looked at Qi Feng and smiled, "That's right, Commander Qi. Comrade Lu and I are just pure revolutionary comrades-in-arms, and there is no other relationship between us."
Qin Ye and Lu Ze were both shrewd people, and they didn't completely believe what Mo Ruqing said.
But since the other party took the initiative to clarify, they didn't dwell on it.
As for Yu Yao, Mo Ruqing was a complete stranger to her.
Whether the other party is there to apologize or has ulterior motives, as long as they don't actively seek trouble, she doesn't need to waste her energy on them.
Those present were all key officers in the military, and several of them were political commissars. With their testimony, the matter was considered to have been officially approved.
After finishing their business, Yu Yao and the others planned to head to the cafeteria.
Seeing this, Mo Ruqing smiled and asked, "Political Commissar Qin, are you going to the canteen? I haven't had breakfast yet either, let's go together."
Qi Feng said loudly, "It's nothing, Dr. Mo, you're too kind."
Yu Yao and Lu Ze walked at the very back.
Seemingly to avoid suspicion, Mo Ruqing did not join them, but instead chose Qi Feng from among the other male officers present.
On her way to the cafeteria, Yu Yao glanced back unintentionally.
Qi Feng said something, and Mo Ruqing laughed heartily, "Commander Qi, you're so interesting."
Yu Yao always felt that something was off about Mo Ruqing.
Her gaze fell on Qi Feng.
Could it be that...
