Chapter 99: A Declaration of Sovereignty

Hearing Yin Linjiang’s words, Shen Chuning sobbed and looked towards the hooligans.

She saw the figure she had been longing for, walking towards her with a gloomy expression.

Shen Chuning had already stopped crying, but now she felt wronged again.

She couldn’t help but cry and run towards the man, throwing herself into his arms.

God knows how scared she was facing those hooligans, how much she wished he was by her side.

Zhou Yubai subconsciously hugged his soft and fragrant little wife, his expression softening, his eyebrows and eyes full of uncontainable tenderness.

He gently patted the little woman’s thin back, comforting her, his guilt spreading.

She was timid, how scared she must have been on her way to and from work alone every day.

If he hadn’t happened to be back today, he didn’t dare to imagine the consequences.

“Wife, I’m sorry.”

Hearing her husband’s deep voice from above, Shen Chuning was stunned.

She forgot to cry for a moment.

She looked up at the man in a daze.

Brother Yubai actually said sorry to her?

“I failed to protect you.”

Seeing her dazed look, Zhou Yubai’s heart softened, he explained.

Shen Chuning sniffed, although there were still tears on her face, she shook her head firmly, her voice choked but firm, “Brother Yubai, you don’t owe me anything. Your responsibility is not to protect me alone, but to protect our motherland, to protect countless families so they can live a stable life.”

Hearing his wife’s words, Zhou Yubai felt his heart swell.

His wife understood him.

She knew his ideals and aspirations.

It’s wonderful!

Zhou Yubai couldn’t help but hug his fragrant little wife tighter.

When Yin Linjiang saw Shen Chuning throw herself into Zhou Yubai’s arms, he was shocked.

But after hearing their conversation and knowing their relationship, bitterness filled his heart.

He had always known that Comrade Shen’s husband was a soldier.

But he didn’t expect him to be such a capable soldier.

He had seen clearly just now that after Zhou Yubai got off the car, he knocked down those five hooligans in a few moves.

If it were him, rushing to fight those hooligans, he might not be able to win.

At this time, Zhou Yubai squatted down and wiped Shen Chuning’s tears, “Wife, that comrade was very concerned about you, let’s go thank him.”

Shen Chuning remembered Yin Linjiang was still there.

She felt embarrassed.

She had…

Thrown herself into her husband’s arms in front of her colleague, it was so embarrassing.

Blush instantly climbed onto her cheeks, making her small face look like a ripe apple, incredibly alluring.

“Comrade Yin…”

Before Shen Chuning could speak, Zhou Yubai took the lead in extending his hand to Yin Linjiang, “Comrade, hello. My name is Zhou Yubai, I’m Shen Chuning’s husband. Thank you for your concern for my wife.”

Zhou Yubai’s sharp eyes fell on Yin Linjiang, while holding Shen Chuning’s shoulder with one hand.

This wasn’t a thank you, it was clearly a declaration of sovereignty.

Yin Linjiang’s eyes were even more bitter.

But on the surface, he could only suppress his emotions, showing a polite smile and shaking hands with Zhou Yubai, “Comrade Zhou, hello…”

As soon as Yin Linjiang spoke, he felt a strong force on his hand.

The other party’s expression didn’t change, but the force was so great that it seemed like he wanted to crush his hand.

He took a deep breath, no matter what, he couldn’t lose face in front of Comrade Shen.

His face was flushed, but his tone was calm, “My name is Yin Linjiang, I’m a colleague who works with Comrade Shen in the commune.”

Seeing Yin Linjiang’s flushed face, even Shen Chuning, no matter how slow she was, reacted.

“Brother Yubai, let go, you’re hurting Comrade Yin’s hand.”

Zhou Yubai curled his lips and let go.

Shen Chuning immediately apologized, “Comrade Yin, I’m sorry, my husband is a soldier, he’s strong. Is your hand okay? Do you need to see a doctor?”

Looking at Shen Chuning’s concerned eyes, Yin Linjiang wished he could find a hole to hide in.

He quickly said, “Comrade Shen, my hand is fine, don’t worry. Seeing you safe, I’m relieved, I’ll go back now!”

Watching Yin Linjiang ride his bicycle towards the commune, Shen Chuning said puzzledly, “Strange, Comrade Yin lives in the commune staff dormitory, why would he come here?”

Zhou Yubai’s deep gaze lingered on Yin Linjiang’s back for a moment, he sat on the bicycle, “Wife, get on, let’s go home.”

A military jeep had just sent Zhou Yubai back.

But now Zhou Yubai asked the driver to send those hooligans to the police station.

He rode his bicycle home with Shen Chuning.

Shen Chuning didn’t dwell on why Yin Linjiang appeared here, she sat on the back seat of the bicycle.

“Brother Yubai, you’re not on leave yet, why are you back?”

Before Shen Chuning heard Zhou Yubai’s answer, the bicycle suddenly jolted violently.

Shen Chuning leaned forward, hitting the man’s broad and strong back, her hands subconsciously hugged the man’s slender waist.

Shen Chuning felt strange, she didn’t feel the road was so bumpy when she rode alone, why was it so bumpy every time she rode with Brother Yubai?

Before she could think deeply, she heard the man’s deep voice, “I’m on a mission here, I came back to see you.”

Hearing this, Shen Chuning felt a little melancholy.

This meant he couldn’t stay home long, he came back to see her and then leave?

Thinking this, she hugged the man tighter.

Feeling the strength on his waist, Zhou Yubai’s lips unconsciously curled up slightly.

Then he heard his wife’s reluctant question, “Brother Yubai, how many days can you stay home this time?”

Zhou Yubai was silent for a moment, feeling a strong reluctance, “Only one night, I have to leave early tomorrow morning.”

Shen Chuning’s face was pressed against the man’s broad back, she was even more reluctant.
