Chapter 6

“I wonder what the political commissar will tell me?”

Lin Qian looked in the direction of the voice and saw Cao Jian and Chu Xuan coming through the crowd. She smiled when she saw the two of them coming together. She knew that Cao Jian might protect Ma Jingjing because Ma Jingjing was his wife’s savior, but Chu Xuan would not.

Chu Xuan is a very serious person. He is usually not good at talking and has no expression on his face. In addition, he is 27 or 28 years old and has not yet married. Many people suspect that there is something wrong with Chu Xuan.

But no one dared to say it out loud, at most they just muttered a few words in their hearts.

“I wonder what kind of result Comrade Lin wants?”

When Cao Jian saw the expressionless look on Lin Qian’s face, he suddenly remembered what his wife often said in his ear, saying that Yun Xinhua was good or something like that.

He didn’t know why, but he looked at the woman hiding in Yun Xinhua’s arms, but then he lowered his eyes.

“Comrade Lin, could you please have someone put something on them?”

It doesn’t look pretty when it’s naked like this, does it?

“Political Commissar Cao, they dared to have an affair in the grove, in broad daylight. Do you think they would care what others think?”

Lin Qian said with a half-smile, then looked at Chu Xuan.

“Captain Chu, I only ask for justice. Otherwise, I will kneel before the city gate. At the same time, I will report this official-to-official mutual protection to the central government.”

One sentence made Cao Jianshou’s face change immediately. At this moment, he finally realized that Lin Qian was not his soldier. Although she was his soldier’s wife, now his soldier had done something wrong to her. It was because he was kind-hearted that he didn’t turn the place upside down.

He actually asked others to do things for the sake of aesthetics. Cao Jian showed an apologetic look on his face.

“Comrade Lin, I’m sorry. I will definitely deal with this matter seriously.”

Cao Jian quickly admitted his mistake and spoke before Chu Xuan could.

“Political Commissar Cao still doesn’t know who Yun Xinhua is having an affair with, right?”

Lin Qian did not accept Cao Jian’s apology. Instead, she asked a question that Cao Jian had not expected.

“Um.”

He looked at Lin Qian in confusion and nodded in response.

Lin Qian stepped forward, grabbed Ma Jingjing’s hair, and forced her to look up.

“This is your wife’s savior. I wonder how Political Commissar Cao plans to deal with this adulterer?”

Lin Qian’s words once again stunned Cao Jian. When he returned home, he often heard his wife say that Ma Jingjing was a good comrade. He also arranged a job for the other party in gratitude for his wife’s life-saving grace. Now he told him that his wife’s life-saver was a woman who had an affair with a married man.

Such a gap made Cao Jian not know what to say for a moment.

“Comrade Lin, I’m sorry. I failed as the regimental commander and allowed such a pest to appear in the army. Don’t worry, I will immediately hold a meeting to discuss the matter of Yun Xinhua having an affair with another woman while married.”

When Chu Xuan saw Cao Jian standing there in a daze as if struck by lightning, he spoke first. His powerful words made Lin Qian look at him with a higher regard.

“Captain Chu, I believe you, but if you don’t give me a satisfactory explanation for this matter, I will report it to the higher-ups. As for how they will handle it in the end, I can’t guarantee it.”

Anyway, Yun Xinhua wanted to climb up quickly like before with Cao Jian’s appreciation, but that was impossible.

It is probably thanks to Cao Jian that Yun Xinhua was able to stay in the army.

I just don’t know if Yun Xinhua can still climb up like before even if he stays.

Yun Xinhua’s expression suddenly changed when he heard Chu Xuan’s words. He knew how ruthless Chu Xuan was and that no one who made a mistake would beg for mercy from him.

Thinking of this, Yun Xinhua looked at Lin Qian with hatred.

“Yun Xinhua, you did something wrong to me, and you still dare to hate me?”

Lin Qian was so angry at Yun Xinhua’s shamelessness that she laughed.

“Your place in the army belongs to my family. My father gave it to you. You have been doing something wrong to me. You dare to treat me like this in front of the political commissar and the regiment commander. I can imagine how you bully me in private. Do you still think that I am the same as before, letting you do whatever you want?”

After seeing the hatred in Yun Xinhua’s eyes, Lin Qian chuckled. Chu Xuan and Cao Jian heard Lin Qian’s words and looked at Yun Xinhua. After seeing the hatred in Yun Xinhua’s eyes, they frowned.

“Political Commissar Cao, Commander Chu, let me make this clear. If I’m not satisfied with the outcome of your handling of this matter, I will file a complaint. You can also restrict my personal freedom. If I don’t contact my parents for a few months, they will definitely come looking for me. By then, I don’t know if my father will contact his old comrades or anything like that.”

Lin Qian sneered again. She admitted that she was threatening Cao Jian and Chu Xuan. Even though Chu Xuan was innocent in this matter, she was attacking them indiscriminately.

“Lin Qian, what are you making such a fuss about?”

Just when Cao Jian was about to say something, his wife Jia Yunlan came over. She ignored Yun Xinhua and Ma Jingjing who were naked and tied together, and scolded Lin Qian.

Lin Qian’s expression changed immediately, and Cao Jin’s heart skipped a beat.

“Shut up.”

He quickly scolded his wife, saying, “You’re joking!” At this time, he wanted to avoid it and not get involved in this matter, but as the political commissar, he had to intervene. His wife interrupted at this time. Did she want to make this matter bigger?

“Lin Qian, every man has his share of affairs. Why don’t you look for the cause within yourself? What are you doing making such a fuss about? If you blow it up, what good will it do you? How will you be able to live your life?”

Jia Yunlan glared at Cao Jian and started to scold Lin Qian. When Lin Qian heard this, she laughed out of anger.

“Comrade Jia, what position do you hold to reprimand me?”

The cold look on Lin Qian’s face made Jia Yunlan frown. In her opinion, she was the political commissar’s wife, so what if she scolded some family members? Her husband held a high position.

“I am the commissar’s wife.”

When Jia Yunlan said this, she raised her chin with a look of arrogance on her face, which made Lin Qian laugh again.

“The wife of the political commissar, what a powerful official she is!”

The sarcastic words made Cao Jian feel uneasy.

“Excuse me, can someone help me find someone from the Political Affairs Office and the Discipline Inspection Department?”

This one sentence made Cao Jian’s face change again. When Jia Yunlan wanted to say something, Cao Jian covered her mouth.

“Do you want to get me off so you can be happy?”

Cao Jian gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words. Jia Yunlan looked at Cao Jian with a look of disbelief in her eyes.

“I am the political commissar, but the army is not my place to have the final say.”
