Chapter 18

“Sisi, you are here too?”

The two of them were dressed in bright and beautiful clothes. Zhao Xingyu looked quite imposing, and with his obvious wheelchair, people around him recognized him at once.

Everyone was surprised that the two of them would attend Han Guibing’s wedding banquet.

“Yes!”

“I received the invitation and came to join in the fun.”

Qi Sisi answered with a smile, as if she was just an ordinary guest.

Everyone was even more surprised when they didn’t get the expected answer, and looked at the two people with inquiring eyes.

“Captain Zhao also likes to join in the fun?”

a teasing voice sounded.

Zhao Xingyu turned his head and saw that it was Company Commander Xu, who was at the same rank as him and also Han Guibing’s direct superior. The two of them usually didn’t get along very well, mainly because Captain Xu was very competitive. Every time he lost a competition; he would be sarcastic and mocking and couldn’t stand him being in the limelight.

“I came here to accompany my lover.”

Zhao Xingyu replied indifferently.

The original intention of enjoying the show suddenly became like a punch on cotton, making people feel uncomfortable.

“Captain Zhao is really courageous. If it were me, I would never do that.” Xu Changsheng gritted his teeth and sneered. He just didn’t believe it. Could Zhao Xingyu, a grown man, really be so generous as to accompany his new wife to attend the wedding banquet of her ex-fiancé? He must be pretending!

That’s right, he is almost lame now and might be kicked out of the army, so naturally he has to hold on to the daughter of the Qi family tightly.

“It’s good to know that you are not as good as me.”

Zhao Xingyu deliberately misinterpreted his meaning.

“Huh!”

Xu Changsheng clenched his fists in anger. He turned his head to look at Qi Sisi and said meaningfully: “It’s strange, why did Miss Qi suddenly change her mind and marry Captain Zhao?”

Zhao Xingyu had been rejected repeatedly before, and he had privately mocked Zhao Xingyu for not being able to even catch a woman. Unexpectedly, he was slapped in the face now!

“If I remember correctly, Captain Xu is not married yet, right?”

Qi Sisi changed the subject and said with a smile, “Captain Xu is not as young as my Xingyu. You have to hurry up!”

Xu Changsheng did not expect that the usually gentle Qi Sisi would give him a fatal blow. His eyes widened and he gasped.

“You two are really great!”

After saying that, he snorted coldly and walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

Qi Sisi seemed unaware and said with a smile, “There’s a vacant seat, let’s sit here!”

Zhao Xingyu readily agreed.

The man sitting next to him quickly made way and took away a chair to make room for his wheelchair.

This table seemed to be specially arranged for Han Guibing’s leaders. Most of the people sitting there were men, either at the same level as Zhao Xingyu or at a higher level.

Much quieter than the other tables filled with women.

It was exactly what Qi Sisi wanted.

“Xingyu, how do you feel after getting married?”

“How are your legs?”

“How long will it take you to recover?”

“Wang Peng has no motivation to train since I haven’t seen you for a while.”

Several men joked with a familiar tone.

Qi Sisi was a little surprised. She didn’t expect that Zhao Xingyu was so popular.

She thought that this man was quiet, cold and unpopular.

“I don’t know yet, it may take a month.”

Zhao Xingyu gave a conservative date.

Apart from his superiors and doctors, no one else knew about his leg injury.

“So long.”

Wang Peng frowned, “Then you can’t fall behind in exercising at home. If you delay it too long, I’m afraid your physical fitness won’t be able to keep up.”

“Well, I know.”

Zhao Xingyu nodded indifferently.

Naturally, he would not neglect such a thing. He exercised at home every morning and evening, but just avoided his injured leg.

“Let’s not talk about this anymore, let’s talk about the wedding banquet.”

Zhao Xingyu didn’t want to drag on this topic for too long.

“What’s there to say? Just think of it as spending money on a meal!”

Several men looked uninterested.

“It’s nothing compared to your wedding banquet the day before yesterday. I regret coming.”

It wasn’t lively at all, just noisy.

The food was also very ordinary, just regular canteen food.

The bride and groom were nowhere to be seen, and just sitting there at home was a complete waste of time.

The two looked at each other.

There was a gleam of pride and cunning in his eyes.

“Why are you two here? Ordinarily, aren’t you enemies?”

Lin Qingyang asked curiously.

“Curious.”

Zhao Xingyu sighed. It was his wife’s fault for being so curious.

He also wanted to take a look and compare.

A man’s desire to win…

Lin Qingyang had a sour expression on his face, it turned out to be because of this.

…

Han Guibing and Miao Cuicui walked around the cafeteria and came back.

Both of them were wearing red clothes.

Han Guibing was wearing the wedding gown he had worn the day before. Its bright red color made him look even darker.

Miao Cuicui wore a red top and black pants, with her hair tied into a pigtail. If people who didn’t know about those things saw her, they would think she was an ordinary country girl.

They look like a good match.

They are all dark and strong.

After the two newlyweds took the oath in front of the Chairman’s portrait, it was their turn to change their words.

Han’s mother sat on a chair and looked at the two of them.

She was not satisfied with Miao Cuicui, a rural girl whose family could not provide support and who had little money, and who only looked fit for childbearing.

She liked Qi Sisi more from the bottom of her heart. She had a father who was a deputy commander, a rich family, and a good temper. She would definitely be easy to control in the future.

But my son said that the news of their affair had spread in the army, and after two days, almost everyone knew about it.

If he didn’t hurry up and married Miao Cuicui, his opponents would use his chaotic relationships with men and women and his improper work style to drive him out of the army…

Even though she was extremely dissatisfied with Miao Cuicui, Aunt Han could only swallow her anger and watch her son marry her.

“It’s too hot!”

Aunt Han put down the teacup heavily, her face full of displeasure.

She knew in her heart what was the right thing to do, but she was so angry that she couldn’t help but make things difficult for Miao Cuicui.

“How could it be…”

Miao Cuicui took a deep breath and stared at Han’s mother with her round eyes.

The teacup is obviously cold! Where is it hot?

This old hag is clearly trying to make things difficult for me.

“Cuicui, hurry up and change another lamp!”

Han Guibing urged hurriedly and gave a look to signal Miao Cuicui to be patient.

“Mom, have some tea!”

Miao Cuicui forced a smile and stared at Han’s mother.

If this old hag dares to make trouble again, she will not cooperate!

Let’s see how Han Guibing explains it then!

Perhaps it was because Miao Cuicui’s eyes were too frightening, Han’s mother’s hands trembled, and she did not dare to act like a demon this time. She drank the tea obediently and gave the red envelope to Jiai.

“You guys go.”

Han’s mother waved her hand, not wanting to see the two of them again.

She couldn’t understand how great it would be if her daughter-in-law was Qi Sisi…

The first cold dish was served.

It is a dish of cold-mixed cloud ear mushrooms with many ingredients, including onions, coriander, minced garlic, chili peppers, and base ingredients such as vinegar and soy sauce.

The taste is quite good.

This was followed by steamed buns, taro pork ribs, and chicken stewed with potatoes.

There were more potatoes than meat, and at first glance, very little chicken.

Most of the people at this table were military officers. They were all concerned about their reputation, so they ate in a restrained manner, and everyone was able to get some meat.

As soon as the dishes were served at other tables, people started scrambling for them. The young wives were no match for the big and strong aunts, and a quarrel broke out immediately.
