He... actually lost...
"Shunzi, you're awesome! From now on, you'll be a hero who defeated the deputy battalion commander!"
"A deputy battalion commander? He's so weak! Shunzi has only been in the army for a year! He can't even beat a greenhorn! If that's the case, I think I could be a battalion commander too!"
The soldier next to him tugged at his sleeve: "Keep your voice down, his uncle is a senior officer in the army!"
"No wonder he could become a deputy battalion commander if he wasn't capable."
...
Amidst the murmurs, Huo Jun, with a long face, snapped out of his daze.
He fled the army as if he were escaping.
"Brother Huo, you're back?" Liu Cuicui, who was sitting on the sofa watching TV, spat out the sunflower seed shells in her mouth and happily came to greet him.
Huo Jun had been upset by what he had just experienced, and seeing her looking so relaxed only fueled his anger.

"Have you ever seen a pregnant mother-in-law living with her daughter and son-in-law? Isn't that a laughing stock? Or are you hoping I'll be demoted every day?"

The Lu family.
The night was deep, and their feelings burned intensely.
In her dazed state, Su Wantang heard Lu Huai'an ask, "Picking me up, was it on the way?"
