Chapter 600: Regret So Deep Her Intestines Turned Green

~4 min read 753 words

Although Chuxue also felt it was indeed somewhat ill-considered, she still argued stubbornly, "You've been so busy lately; I just thought I shouldn't disturb you."

Hearing this, Fu Yan Cheng truly wanted to pull her into his arms and rub her down. Hearing her say such things, he knew he was truly fallen; otherwise, he wouldn't care this much. But what could he do? He could only spoil her.

Being able to hear her voice was already enough satisfaction. "Are you returning to the city tomorrow?"

"I'm not going back tomorrow. Our section chief gave me two days off. I won't return to the city until the afternoon of the day after tomorrow."

Though she said that, she was thinking of returning to the city the morning of the day after tomorrow. She also wanted to inquire about Jiang Huiwen's situation and see if she could find a way to meet that woman.

Originally, she intended to use Fu Yan Cheng's connections, but besides the big competition, he also had the person discovered that day to investigate. She didn't want to distract him further.

After all, she had just asked him to investigate Zhao Dujiao's matter; she didn't know if there was any news yet.

Just as she was thinking this, she heard Fu Yan Cheng say, "There is some progress on the matter you asked me to investigate. Come by when you have time later. I really can't spare time these few days."

There were two days left; this military district competition would end then. As for those people in Baifu Village, they would likely wrap up their net today or tomorrow. So when she came over on her next leave, he would definitely have time to accompany her.

How could Chuxue not understand his meaning? Moreover, she didn't want to disrupt his work schedule by going there herself. "Then I'll come over on my break next weekend."

The two chatted a few more words before hanging up the phone.

Fu Yan Cheng knew his little wife would be coming next weekend, and his mood was exceptionally good.

After walking a stretch out of the office building, preparing to go to the canteen for a meal, he heard people arguing not far ahead: "Jiang Xiaoya, I was hospitalized because I helped you. Since it affected the assessment, you naturally must take responsibility."

"Are you even being reasonable? Did I ask you to go cause trouble?"

"Say what you will, regardless of whether I asked you to go, I indeed went to cause trouble for that woman for your sake. You cannot deny this point."

"I didn't say I wouldn't admit it, but since I didn't pass the assessment, I have no way out. How do you expect me to take responsibility?"

"Didn't you say before that your family has connections?"

"What do you mean? You want me to help you cut in line? Don't even think about it. Isn't that digging a trap for me and my family?"

"What do you think this army is? How dare you say such a thing?"

"Then what do you want me to do? I've been longing for promotion for so long. You know that. But just missing out like this, I can't accept it."

"You know, whether it's professional ability or proficiency, I always ranked at the top in every company assessment. This time, it was truly because the hospitalization affected me."

Fu Yan Cheng originally didn't want to listen, but who could help it when her hearing was so good? Just as he was thinking whether to walk over or take a detour, he saw someone step out from the side.

It was Company Commander Qiu of the Communications Company.

Fu Yan Cheng didn't feel embarrassed; he nodded his chin toward the two people ahead. "What's their situation?"

Company Commander Qiu naturally knew what had happened before, so he briefly recounted the incident where Zhang Haizhen caused trouble for Chuxue that day: "Although it wasn't explicitly stated at the time, I reminded her several times. She insisted firmly that she would treat, so who can be blamed?"

Zhang Haizhen was now collapsing. She had overestimated her own abilities and underestimated her teammates' efforts. She never expected that in just those few days, everyone would go all out to train to get good results.

Because she hadn't been on the machine for three days, plus the nervousness, she made frequent mistakes during the assessment. Now she truly regretted it so much her intestines turned green.
