On his first night as a substitute bride accompanying the army, the abstinent tycoon dropped his pre

Chapter 86 Who is your husband?

After finishing his meal, Huo Jingyuan picked up his backpack and headed straight for the bicycle in the yard. He wanted to ride it to the military camp to encourage everyone's competitive spirit.

Not long after, Wen Ci also went out to the hospital.

She and Yu Qing not only had to bring their own personal belongings, but also several first-aid kits. Soldiers undergoing the Hell Week training usually suffer from sprains, bruises, or illnesses like colds.

Wen Ci and Yu Qing arrived at the military camp carrying two large medicine boxes. It was still early before mealtime, so they were invited to sit in the regimental commander's office for a while.

"It's Xiaoyu again. How's it going, are you dating anyone?"

Yu Qing replied indifferently, "We talked."

"so fast?"

The group leaders liked to pair their best subordinates with single young women. Soon, one of the leaders, who didn't recognize Wen Ci, looked at her and asked with a smile:
"Does this young nurse have a boyfriend?"

Wen Ci shook her head: "I don't have a boyfriend."

She only has a husband.

Upon hearing this, the regimental commander's eyes lit up. He took out several headshots from his pocket and said, "Then I'll introduce you to some potential partners. These are the most outstanding single young men in my regiment. The oldest is only 25 years old. What do you think?"

Wen Ci was about to explain.

Meng Ran walked over, glanced at the headshots, and joked, "Old Xu, this won't do. You're recommending all sorts of weirdos."

"Bullshit, you're the crooked one."

"This young lady is young and beautiful, but aren't your single subordinates all ugly and unattractive?"

The regimental commander, known as Lao Xu, was ashamed. He had to admit Meng Ran's words: his subordinates were indeed excellent, but they were just a bit ugly.

Suddenly, a chill descended upon the office as Huo Jingyuan appeared with a stern face. Meng Ran immediately greeted him, "Commander Huo, Old Xu keeps introducing ugly girls to young ladies."

Huo Jingyuan frowned almost imperceptibly.

There were only two 'young girls' in the office. Yu Qing was a well-known figure in the Northwest Military Region, so the other girl was someone else.

Not all the regimental commanders knew each other well.

Commander Xu spat at Meng Ran and looked at Huo Jingyuan to explain, "Don't listen to Hao Ran's nonsense. The nurse I introduced to this nurse is an outstanding soldier, a potential candidate to become a battalion commander in the next five years."

In the military camp, Meng Ran was nicknamed Meng Haoran.

Upon hearing this, Huo Jingyuan's eyes darkened. His features were naturally cold, and his expression was indifferent, making the atmosphere in the office seem to drop several degrees.

Wen Ci quickly explained, "Commander Xu, I don't have a girlfriend, but!" Her tone shifted abruptly, a hint of a smile appearing in her eyes, and she continued:
"But I'm already married."

"Huh?!" Commander Xu realized something. The nurse in front of him was not a new recruit from the hospital, but a family member of a soldier from the military region.

Who is your husband?

Before Wen Ci could speak, Huo Jingyuan walked unhurriedly to her side, his expression composed, and his deep, mellow voice rang out:
"I."

Men's words are concise and to the point.

Instantly, all eyes in the office were drawn to Wen Ci.

The military officers all knew about Huo Jingyuan's wife's background.

Many of the regimental commanders had even served as subordinates of Minister Jiang. Upon learning Wen Ci's identity, Commander Xu immediately showed him great respect and bowed deeply in apology.
"I'm sorry, Ms. Jiang, I didn't ask clearly. I apologize for being so intrusive."

Wen Ci smiled calmly: "It's okay, I was just joking when I said I didn't have a partner."

"How is Minister Jiang's health?"

Wen Ci blinked. It turned out that Commander Xu was also her biological father's subordinate. She recalled the scene of leaving the Jiang family with Huo Jingyuan.

He smiled gently and said, "I'm in good health, there's nothing wrong with me."

At this moment, Yu Qing was still shocked that Wen Ci's father was a minister-level figure, but upon reflection, it was quite normal for someone of such high status to marry a "living devil." After spending several hours in the military base, it was time for the official departure. All the soldiers participating in Hell Week stood fully armed on the parade ground.

They don't travel by car to reach the wilderness; they have to carry their own loads.

The Youth League Committee member stood on the podium, holding a microphone with a slightly electronic tone, and slowly began to speak:
"Let's not go into too much detail. The first prize for this Hell Week is a bicycle, the second prize is a sewing machine, and the third prize is a watch, but you need to push your limits to get the prize."

The rewards for this month's Hell Week are incredibly generous.

Therefore, some conditions were set, requiring participants to surpass their previous achievements; otherwise, the results would not count and no reward would be given.

"Does one second count as a breakthrough?" someone asked.

"Calculate."

The battlefield is ever-changing, but every extra second can mean a greater chance of survival. Recently, some cities near the border have experienced unrest.

Many military regions have dispatched soldiers to guard the area.

After the Youth League Committee member delivered another impassioned speech on the stage, a deafening bugle call rang out across the parade ground, and all the soldiers set off with their loads on.
-
After all the soldiers had left, Wen Ci and Yu Qing sat in the supply wagon. They had a roof to keep out the dust, and they could see the yellow sand and dust through the rear of the wagon.

Yu Qing covered her mouth and nose with something, lifted her eyelids to look at Wen Ci, and asked curiously, "Your father is a minister, so why did you come to the Northwest?"

The minister held an extremely high position. Given the rank of Wen Ci's father, he could easily have transferred the "Living Yama" from the Northwest to the capital without Wen Ci having to suffer with the army.

Wen Ci smiled self-deprecatingly.

On the surface, she is indeed Minister Jiang's daughter.

But in reality, Jiang Ye is Minister Jiang's daughter.

She's only related by blood.

After a moment's thought, Wen Ci told Yu Qing a story about a real and a fake heiress, and then recounted her own story in the third person.

Upon hearing this, Yu Qing was greatly shocked.

She realized that the protagonist of the story Wen Ci was telling was herself.

Looking at Wen Ci with eyes full of heartache, she realized that it was the fake heiress parents who caused all of this, yet the fake heiress was still able to enjoy the love of the real heiress parents.

This is absolutely unfair.

Although there is an old saying...

The sins of parents should not be borne by their children, nor should the misfortune befall their wives and daughters.

But the fake heiress genuinely enjoyed the benefits.

Yu Qing asked, "Were the parents of the fake heiress arrested?"

In this era, trafficking in women was considered a major case, and even if the crime was committed only once, it could result in a death sentence.

Wen Ci shook her head: "I don't think so."

In her memory, it was Jiang Ye who pleaded with Jiang's parents, saying that although they had no obligation to raise her, they had the obligation to give birth to her, and begged them to forgive her biological parents.

Yu Qing gritted her teeth in hatred: "These parents of the real daughter are simply inhuman. Their own daughter has suffered so much outside, and they still want to marry her off in her place."

"Fake heiresses are the most despicable of all!"

Wen Ci shrugged, feeling quite lucky.

She eventually married Huo Jingyuan.
