A well-behaved girl was deceived while searching for her husband; she married a childless military o

When Qin Yuanzheng learned that Qiao Lanshu's stomach was no longer in pain, his tense mood instantly relaxed.

He drove slowly, asking Qiao Lanshu, "I just heard from the security guard at your food factory that you panicked and hid in the car, then accidentally drove it off course and hit Liu Weidong, knocking him into the ditch?"

Qiao Lanshu felt a little guilty. She didn't want to lie to Qin Yuanzheng, but she hadn't figured out how to say it yet.

When Qin Yuanzheng saw that Qiao Lanshu didn't speak, he turned around and glanced at her.

He then immediately stopped the car.

When Qiao Lanshu saw Qin Yuanzheng stop the car, she was so nervous that she immediately sat up straight, put her hands on her thighs, and looked very obedient.

Qin Yuanzheng looked at her, completely at a loss for what to do with her.

He asked, "When did you learn to drive? I've never heard you mention it before?"

Qiao Lanshu said somewhat embarrassedly, "Brother Zheng, why would you think I can drive a car?"

Qin Yuanzheng looked at her and smiled, saying, "If you didn't know how to drive, you wouldn't hide inside a car."

Over this period of time, Qin Yuanzheng has come to understand his wife quite well.

Although Qiao Lanshu is young, she is surprisingly sensible and knows how to navigate social situations.

On the surface, they look obedient and gentle, like a young person who is naive and inexperienced.

But he has a plan for everything in his heart.

Qin Yuanzheng guessed that she would hide in the car, which was probably the best way to protect herself under the circumstances.

Qin Yuanzheng had no idea when Qiao Lanshu learned to drive a car.

He asked Qiao Lanshu, "Did you learn to drive back in your hometown of Guangzhou? Did your father teach you?"

Qiao Lanshu's father is a department store manager, so it's normal for someone with that kind of background to know how to drive a car.

As Qin Yuanzheng was thinking this, he heard Qiao Lanshu say, "I think I learned it in a dream."

Qin Yuanzheng: "..."

Qin Yuanzheng looked at him silently, his face expressionless.

Qiao Lanshu was also a little guilty. She said in a low voice, "Just like the man with the scar on his face that I dreamed about before, I also drive in my dream."

Qin Yuanzheng didn't say anything, but just silently looked at her for a while. He probably didn't know what to say.

I wanted to give her a good "interrogation," but I also had to consider her pregnancy.

Looking at his expression, Qiao Lanshu added, "Brother Zheng, what I said is true. In my dream, you were the one teaching me to drive. I drove the car into a ditch, and you didn't even scold me."

Qin Yuanzheng: "..."

It sounds so real.

He sighed inwardly, reached out and ruffled Qiao Lanshu's hair, and said softly, "Alright."

As he spoke, he started the car again and said, "I'll take you to the hospital to get checked out."

Qiao Lanshu shook her head: "No need to go, I'm really fine."

Qin Yuanzheng was still worried, so he took Qiao Lanshu to the hospital. After confirming that everything was alright, he brought back some medication to help prevent miscarriage.

Qin Yuanzheng did not go to the police station again; he took Qiao Lanshu home directly.

Qiao Lanshu asked him with some concern, "Brother Zheng, what should we do about Liu Weidong's matter?"

Qin Yuanzheng took her home, and when he heard her ask this, he asked her, "What do you think? How do you want to handle this?"

Qiao Lanshu paused for a moment, then said in a low voice:

"I don't think Liu Weidong is a good person. He doesn't even respect the families of military officers. He bullies them whenever he wants. I don't know how many people he has bullied before. It would be good if we could send him to a labor camp. He doesn't go to the countryside, he doesn't work, and he bullies men and women in the city all day long. He's just wasting the country's food."

Qiao Lanshu really dislikes Liu Weidong.

In fact, she had heard of Liu Weidong in her previous life.

At that time, Liu Weihong was not working at the food factory, and Qiao Lanshu did not know where she had gone, so she did not recognize Liu Weihong.

But Liu Weidong is the director of the Longcheng Labor Bureau. In his previous life, he made a living by selling jobs.

Under the guise of recruiting workers for construction sites, they sell jobs on construction sites to young people who don't want to go to the countryside or want to work in the city, charging 500 yuan per job!

Qiao Lanshu only overheard it once and knew that there was a person named Liu Weidong in the Labor Bureau.

As for how Liu Weidong got the position and what happened to him afterward, Qiao Lanshu didn't know.

Qin Yuanzheng hung the clothes he had changed out of on the wall while listening to Qiao Lanshu speak.

He nodded thoughtfully; "You're right, this Liu Weidong doesn't seem like a good person. I'll have someone investigate him tomorrow; he's probably committed quite a few crimes."

Even if Liu Weidong's father had connections, encountering Qin Yuanzheng was like kicking a hornet's nest.

Qin Yuanzheng never cares about others' opinions when doing things.

The military and the government are two separate systems. While personal connections might work between different departments, they simply won't work in the military.

Qin Yuanzheng said to Qiao Lanshu, "Leave Liu Weidong's matter to me, don't worry about it for now. Get some rest, I'll go cook for you."

With that, Qin Yuanzheng kissed Qiao Lanshu and went into the kitchen to cook.

These days, there's not much to do at home.

Qiao Lanshu turned on the radio and started listening to the broadcast.

The radio content is actually quite rich nowadays. In addition to news, it also talks about international current affairs, which is what Qin Yuanzheng likes to listen to.

Qiao Lanshu particularly enjoys listening to the "Reading Appreciation" program, which guides viewers through reading classic literature.

Besides these, there were opera singers, singers, and storytellers.

Qiao Lanshu tuned the radio to the local news station and sat on the sofa, drinking goat milk while listening.

Upon hearing one of the news reports, Qiao Lanshu's expression immediately turned serious. She quickly jumped off the sofa, not even having time to put on her shoes, and ran to the kitchen, saying to Qin Yuanzheng, "Brother Zheng, Brother Zheng, come and listen! The news says there's been an explosion somewhere in Longcheng."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yuanzheng's expression immediately turned serious: "Where was the explosion located?"

Ever since Chu Liangjun stole explosives from the construction site, the already strict management of the engineering corps has become even stricter.

Explosives were under the unified management of the military. Any construction site that needed to use explosives had to obtain an approval slip from the military. The officer who approved the explosives had to accompany the use of them on-site and could only leave after the explosion was completed.

Even knowing that there are definitely no problems with the management in the military.

But upon hearing this news, Qin Yuanzheng still felt a sudden tightness in his chest, worried that something had happened at one of the construction sites under his jurisdiction.

Qin Yuanzheng strode from the kitchen to the living room, where he stood with Qiao Lanshu, listening to the radio with a frown.

The announcer's tone was also very serious on the radio, saying that around 6 p.m., a residential building on Longcheng West Street suddenly exploded. Fortunately, no one died, but two people were injured and have been sent to the hospital.

Police officers and militia members from the street patrol team arrived at the scene immediately and made a preliminary assessment that the explosion was not an accident but was deliberately caused.

The cause of the explosion was traced to explosives at the scene, but the source of the explosives was unknown.

Furthermore, it is unclear who planted the explosives and whether there was any personal grudge involved; everything is still under investigation.

Qiao Lanshu said in a low voice, "Around six o'clock in the afternoon is just the time for us to go home."

Qin Yuanzheng glanced at the clock in his house; it was already around 7:30 p.m.

It seems the explosion happened on their way back.

Qin Yuanzheng said with a serious expression, "It's almost the end of the year, and just as the inspection team was about to arrive, an explosion occurred in the city. We have to handle this matter well; otherwise, we might have to replace a large number of people in the city."

Qiao Lanshu was also very worried about this matter.

Qin Yuanzheng stood there in silence for a while before saying, "The army hasn't notified me, so don't worry about it for now. I'll cook for you first; eating is the most important thing."

With that, he went back to the kitchen to cook, looking worried.

However, because of Liu Weidong's matter and the explosion, the couple had something on their minds. After dinner, they listened to the radio together for more than an hour, but they didn't hear any more reports of explosions.

Qin Yuanzheng sighed, turned off the radio, and then said to Qiao Lanshu, "It's getting late, let's go to sleep. Tomorrow will probably be very busy."

As Qin Yuanzheng spoke, he picked up Qiao Lanshu, and the two of them went back to the kang (a heated brick bed) and lay down.

Qin Yuanzheng habitually hugged Qiao Lanshu, buried his head in her neck and took a deep breath, whispering, "Wife, you smell so good."

Qiao Lanshu felt an itch on her neck. She pushed Qin Yuanzheng's face and said to him, "Stop messing around, your beard is making me uncomfortable."

Qin Yuanzheng stroked his beard, realizing he hadn't shaved for two days. Usually, this was when he would be having a "midnight snack."

Unfortunately, too many things happened today, and he didn't want to bother his wife anymore.

He held Qiao Lanshu in his arms. Qiao Lanshu was petite with a curvy figure. He lay on his side and had her lie on her side as well, holding her in his arms. This position was just right.

They are truly a match made in heaven.

As he thought this, his hand instinctively reached under his clothes.

His large, rough hands were hot and scorching. Qiao Lanshu couldn't dissuade him, so she could only let him have his way.

Qin Yuanzheng closed his eyes, his breath hot against her ear, and whispered, "Wife, it seems to have gotten bigger again."

Qiao Lanshu: "..."

Qin Yuanzheng: "Will I be able to eat soon...?"

Qiao Lanshu covered his mouth: "Shut up."

Qin Yuanzheng moved his hand down again and touched Qiao Lanshu's belly.

Qiao Lanshu's belly is still very small; in fact, it feels no different from usual when touched.

But Qin Yuanzheng felt that her belly was big, and he could even feel the heartbeat inside.

Qin Yuanzheng gently stroked her belly, thinking to himself that he was about to become a father.

But he wasn't really sure how to be a father.

He wasn't actually ready yet.

……

The next morning, Zhao Jiannong from next door came knocking on the door.

He said to Qin Yuanzheng, "Did you know about the explosion on West Street last night?"

Qin Yuanzheng nodded: "I know."

Zhao Jiannong lowered his voice and said, "Let's go, don't go to the mining area. We need to go to the headquarters together. This matter is probably not simple; it may be a terrorist attack."

Upon hearing this, both of their expressions turned cold and somber.

Qiao Lanshu also sensed the tense atmosphere between them, and became even more worried.

This incident appears to be quite significant.

After Qiao Lanshu arrived at the food factory, Qin Yuanzheng and Zhao Jiannong drove together to the headquarters building.

Qiao Lanshu started working at the food factory. The security guard was also on duty today. Seeing Qiao Lanshu enter, he immediately came out and asked, "Little Qiao, how's the case with Liu Weidong going? Can your officer send him to a labor camp?"

Qiao Lanshu: "..."

She sighed softly and said, "Just based on what happened yesterday, I'm afraid we won't be able to send him to a labor camp."

Sending him to a labor camp would only be possible if Liu Weidong had other leverage over him.

The security guard said regretfully, "That damn bastard, he's a real piece of work. If he dares to come again, I'll unleash my dogs on him!"

The gatekeeper also keeps a dog at home, and he plans to bring it to the food factory to keep it for a few days.

If Liu Weidong dares to come again, I'll lock the door and unleash the dogs!

Then, the gatekeeper lowered his voice and said to Qiao Lanshu, "Comrade Qiao, you'd better be careful in the future. Don't go out alone anymore. I've asked the police, and this Liu Weidong is really a scoundrel."

As he spoke, he lowered his voice even further, as if afraid of being overheard, and said with slight nervousness, "This Liu Weidong, under the guise of making revolution, has bullied many young women and wives. In short, you should be careful."

These days, people are quick to accuse others of reporting crimes or starting a revolution. Ordinary people are afraid of these people, so how could they dare to oppose them?

The security guard was a little scared.

Fortunately, Liu Weidong wasn't wearing that green outfit when he came to cause trouble yesterday; otherwise, they might not have dared to fight him.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Lanshu immediately understood.

She thought to herself, "Make a revolution? Isn't that under the jurisdiction of the Revolutionary Committee?"

Wasn't the head of the Revolutionary Committee Guan Wenjun?

Can Guan Wenjun control Liu Weidong?

With that thought in mind, Qiao Lanshu walked towards the workshop inside the food factory.

Halfway there, I was stopped by a colleague in the office.

The comrade said to her, "Warehouse clerk, go to the factory manager's office. The factory manager wants to see you."

Qiao Lanshu: "..."

Qiao Lanshu had no choice but to take another route and arrive at the factory director's office.

At this very moment, in the factory director's office, Liu Weidong's father, Liu Zhengxing, was sitting in Yang Wenyan's office.

Yang Wenyan and Secretary Wen were both in the office, having tea with Liu Zhengxing.

When Qiao Lanshu came in, the three of them were talking. It was clear that Secretary Wen's expression was quite polite, as if he didn't dare to offend the other party.

Yang Wenyan's expression turned rather unpleasant. He only learned about Liu Weidong's trouble-making against Qiao Lanshu after returning home last night.

When Yang Wenyan saw Qiao Lanshu enter, he quickly stood up and said to Qiao Lanshu, "Comrade Qiao, this is Liu Zhengxing, Section Chief Liu. He is Liu Weidong's father. He has come up to apologize to you today."

Qiao Lanshu: "..."

Qiao Lanshu wondered if she had misheard.

Liu Zhengxing was the head of the personnel department, and he was always the one being flattered.

Why would he apologize to Qiao Lanshu, an ordinary female employee?

However, Liu Zhengxing's purpose in coming to the food factory was indeed to apologize to Qiao Lanshu.

He stood up, looked at Qiao Lanshu, and said with a smile, "You must be Comrade Qiao Lanshu? I'm so sorry, I only found out today that Wei Dong came to cause you trouble. It's my fault for not raising my son properly. I will definitely teach him a lesson later. I hope you can forgive him this time and not hold it against him."
