Chapter 31: Sneaking Around Is Not Good

Chen Mo didn’t believe that Fu Yuzhou would be involved with a woman. He only came to find Fu Yuzhou because he saw Chen Rulai leading people to Fu Yuzhou’s dormitory to catch them in the act, and he was worried.

Watching Fu Yuzhou’s nervous escape, Chen Mo also felt guilty and chased after him.

•  

Beijing City.

In Chu Ning’s house.

Zhou Chenhao chased Chu Ning into the bathroom, opened the door, and Chu Ning was gone.

For a moment, he froze in place.

He was so stunned he couldn’t believe his eyes. How could someone disappear so suddenly?

Looking up, he saw the bathroom vent window was open.

Zhou Chenhao didn’t believe that Chu Ning had the ability to escape through the window so quickly.

But, Chu Ning was really gone from the bathroom.

With no other choice, he called his assistant, “Seal off the apartment complex, and search everywhere for Chu Ning.”

He wanted to see where she could escape under his nose.

•  

In Fu Yuzhou’s dormitory.

Chu Ning was engrossed in reading a collection of works by great leaders when she suddenly heard noisy voices outside.

“Captain Chen, are you sure Comrade Chu is in Battalion Commander Fu’s dormitory?”

“Of course I’m sure. This shameless woman, just arrived, instead of working hard, she’s always thinking about how to seduce Battalion Commander Fu. It’s simply shameless.”

Chen Rulai said decisively. His daughter had given him the information, and he believed her.

“I don’t think Battalion Commander Fu is that kind of person. Even if he has something with Comrade Chu, he would do it openly.”

“Battalion Commander Fu’s character is beyond reproach, but that Comrade Chu is shameless. It’s said that she seduced Battalion Commander Fu.

And she’s come to Battalion Commander Fu’s dormitory more than once, coming and going as she pleases.”

Chen Rulai could only tell the truth, repeating what his daughter had told him.

“It’s simply ruining the atmosphere. Let’s go, since that’s the case, let’s go in and arrest Comrade Chu and make her clean the pigsty.”

“That’s a good idea. The work for the educated youths hasn’t been assigned yet, so let Comrade Chu clean the pigsty, at least three times a day.”

“Five times.”

“…”

Chu Ning heard every word.

She was shocked.

Comrade Chu?

It was her in Fu Yuzhou’s dormitory, but why did it become Comrade Chu?

Chu Ning was a little stunned.

How did these fools create this misunderstanding about Comrade Chu being in Fu Yuzhou’s dormitory?

They were in love, why were they trying to catch them in the act?

Chu Ning was speechless.

Undoubtedly, these people mistook her for Comrade Chu and came to catch them in the act.

Chu Ning was stunned, knowing that they would catch her if they came in.

Last time, she used Fu Chen’s identity to hide her identity from Wang Fengxian and Comrade Chu. Chu Ning didn’t want to reveal her identity.

She knew that people in the old era were very feudal, and unmarried men and women together would be constantly criticized.

She had nothing to do with Fu Yuzhou, and even if she didn’t, it would be hard to explain things clearly if she was caught.

She was a time traveler, and she wanted to go back, so she would go back.

She absolutely couldn’t affect Fu Yuzhou and cause problems for him.

The key was that he and Comrade Chu liked each other, and Fu Yuzhou gave up returning to the city because of Comrade Chu.

Therefore, Comrade Chu must not misunderstand Fu Yuzhou.

Thinking of this, Chu Ning took Fu Yuzhou’s military uniform from his closet and rushed into the bathroom.

But soon, there was a knock on the dormitory door.

“Comrade Chu, open the door, we know you’re inside.”

Chen Rulai ordered in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Chu Ning’s hand holding the bathroom door latch trembled.

There was no better way, she could only quickly put on Fu Yuzhou’s large military uniform.

The next second, with a crash, she clearly heard the sound of the dormitory door being broken open.

“Comrade Chu, come out.”

A woman shouted into the empty room.

“She’s in the bathroom, definitely in the bathroom.”

Chen Rulai immediately saw the closed bathroom door.

Wang Fengxian arrived late and rushed in, saying: “Why bother? Captain Chen, you and Sergeant Liu are making a fuss over nothing. I’ve said it before, Battalion Commander Fu likes Comrade Chu.

Even if they don’t sneak around and sleep together openly, we should let them be.

Battalion Commander Fu is not young, and the country needs people, and encourages having more children to strengthen the reserve forces, so I think you should turn a blind eye.”

The discipline committee member was dissatisfied with the women’s director’s blatant partiality towards Fu Yuzhou.

“Comrade Wang, we all work together, there are laws of the country, rules of the family, and our commune brigade has its own regulations. How can we watch the newly arrived Comrade Chu break the law?”

“Yes, Comrade Wang Fengxian, you’d better not meddle in other people’s business. Your son is taking the college entrance examination this year, and if you don’t listen, it will affect his future.”

Hearing this, Wang Fengxian couldn’t say a word.

“Come on, you two come over and break down the bathroom door.”

Suddenly, Chen Rulai ordered the two militiamen who had just come in.

“Yes, Captain.”

The two militiamen stepped forward.

“Stop.”

Fu Yuzhou, who had run over breathlessly, coldly stopped them. The militiamen stopped when they heard Fu Yuzhou’s voice.

Chen Rulai looked at Fu Yuzhou’s hurried appearance and was even more certain that the person inside was Comrade Chu.

However, he couldn’t ignore Fu Yuzhou’s status.

“Battalion Commander Fu, we received a report saying that Comrade Chu seduced you, so we came to arrest her.”

Fu Yuzhou’s face was gloomy, he walked over and stood in front of the bathroom door, “What Comrade Chu? She’s not here.”

Fu Yuzhou’s tone was calm, but his heart was already in turmoil.

“Not here?”

Chen Rulai was dubious, “Since she’s not here, why is Battalion Commander Fu so scared?”

“Yes, Battalion Commander Fu, we don’t distrust you, but you also know that our commune brigade has its rules. Open the door and let us have a look, then we’ll leave immediately.”

Discipline Committee Member Yang Meihua said.

Sergeant Liu Dazhui also said: “Battalion Commander Fu, look, I know you’re an older youth, and it’s normal to want to find a partner and get married.

But you should have filed a report beforehand, and after passing the political review, and after getting married, we won’t interfere with what you do.

But now you haven’t gone through any procedures, and you openly brought a girl to the dormitory, sneaking around like this, it’s not a good influence.

Your conduct is also problematic, you will corrupt a group of soldiers. The militiamen in our brigade should be positive and upward, and cannot be corrupted by your thoughts.”

Liu Dazhui spoke eloquently, using high-sounding principles.

Fu Yuzhou listened with irony, and was so angry he wanted to curse.

Chu Ning was in his dormitory, and he had been protecting her tightly.

How did the rumor about Comrade Chu being in his dormitory suddenly spread?

Chu Ning was hiding in the bathroom, and if he opened the door, it would confirm that he was having an affair with Chu Ning.
