1970s: My childhood sweetheart ran away, and I turned around and married the wildest chief.

Bai Xue used to be so proud. Relying on the power of the Bai family and her own beauty, she was always fawned over by those sons of high-ranking families. She was always very arrogant and haughty. How could she be so disregarding her image?

"Did you need something from me? Let's go home and talk!"

There are still quite a few people passing by this main road. On the left is the family housing complex, and on the right is where she lives. Although it is not as densely populated as the housing complex, it is still a large courtyard with quite a few people.

She wants as few people as possible to know about her family situation. If she can just endure these next few months, she'll be safe.

Qiao Wanqing wanted to calm her down and talk somewhere alone, so she pushed her hand away and turned to leave.

Bai Xue stumbled from the push, becoming even angrier. She chased after Qiao Wanqing and grabbed the handlebars tightly, preventing him from leaving.

"Don't leave! What's the rush? Is she ashamed of herself? Help! Everyone come and see! Qiao Wanqing, this capitalist's daughter, a woman who came back from abroad, seduced soldiers to avoid being sent to the countryside. Her parents have been arrested. She's a bad element..."

Qiao Wanqing slapped him across the face.

Snapped!

"what……"

Bai Xue screamed and fell to the ground.

Qiao Wanqing slapped hard. She had been nourishing herself with spiritual spring water for many years and had never given up training. Her family had experienced the war years, so they were very strict with their children. Even though she was a girl, she still had to have basic training so that she wouldn't be unable to run away in case of danger.

Therefore, after so many years of training, Qiao Wanqing is much stronger than the average person.

The slap made Bai Xue see stars, and she fell to the ground, unable to recover for a long time.

She hates it when people accuse her of seducing others. These capitalist brats are being too sensitive. They're being ungrateful, so she can't blame them.

"Stop accusing me, Bai Xue. You've always disliked me. Just because your aunt is the head of the cultural troupe, you think you're above the law and act like the troupe is yours. Because I do a good job, you think I'm stealing your thunder and you're always targeting me."

"Minor squabbles are one thing, but now you're actually slandering my family as bad elements? What are you trying to do? Are you trying to ruin my family?"

Faced with an increasing number of people around her, Qiao Wanqing tried her best to distance herself from the situation, determined to make it a personal feud between her and Bai Xue. She couldn't let everyone assume that their family background was problematic, otherwise not only would the Xu and Qiao families suffer, but Lu Mingzhou would also be implicated. With only a few months left, she absolutely couldn't afford to make a mess of things at the last minute.

"You little girl, why don't you talk this out? Why are you hitting me?"

A busybody old lady spoke up to criticize.

Qiao Wanqing said angrily, "That's exactly what I wanted to do! I think she's a spy, trying to frame my family. Our whole family has been working for the country. My uncle joined the army when he was young and fought in so many wars, suffering so many injuries. And she actually said my family are bad elements. She's clearly trying to harm our family. You heard everything, and you're still helping her? Are you in cahoots with her?"

The aunt was startled. She had originally intended to reach out and help Bai Xue, but immediately moved far away from her.

"Don't accuse me of something wrong. I'm not a spy, and I have nothing to do with her."

Bai Xue had recovered by this time, and when she saw that Qiao Wanqing had wrongly accused her of being a spy, she immediately exploded.

Spies can be deadly; Qiao Wanqing is trying to kill her whole family!

"Shut up!" Bai Xue's voice grew even sharper. "You're the spy! Your whole family are spies! Your entire family are spies who came back from abroad! You despicable woman should be shot! What right do you have to marry Lu Mingzhou?"

"I saw you were restless back in the performing arts troupe. You seduced Lu Mingzhou, didn't you? You deliberately seduced him to get him to marry you, didn't you? I don't care, you divorce Lu Mingzhou right now. He's mine, he's mine, you're not allowed to marry him!"

Qiao Wanqing: "..."

I knew Bai Xue was stupid before, but I never expected her to be this stupid.

No, this seems like he's been provoked, not just making a stupid mistake.

What did the Bai family do to her? What made her so crazy?

In an instant, several thoughts raced through Qiao Wanqing's mind, and she suddenly felt that the opportunity had arrived.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

When Lu Mingzhou came home from get off work, he saw his wife surrounded by people, with Qiao Yuanhe and Li Hongjun by his side.

Bai Xue went crazy the moment she saw Lu Mingzhou.

"Lu Mingzhou, you're back! That's great! Go and divorce her right away. Don't marry her. Who does she think she is? She can't marry you; she'll only bring you trouble."

"She's my uncle's woman. He even had her parents arrested to get her. This kind of bad element will bring you trouble. Divorce her! How about I marry you...?"

"What did you say?" Qiao Wanqing saw her chance and immediately grabbed Bai Xue to question her.

It must have been something the Bai family did after she left to get married that made Bai Xue suddenly go crazy.

"What do you mean? Your uncle has a crush on me? That's why he arrested my parents to threaten me? Are you kidding me? Your uncle is old, has several sons who are all older than me, he could be my father, and you're saying he has a crush on me?"

"No wonder my parents were doing well at work and were suddenly arrested a while ago. Not only were they arrested, but my maternal grandparents were also arrested. It turns out that this is the reason."

"Our whole family works for the country. My dad's health has been ruined from working so hard every day. Is someone who contributes so much to the country nothing in your Bai family's eyes? An old man like you has the nerve to take a fancy to a teenage girl like me? You have no shame! If you can't have me, you snatch me away! You don't even respect the military, arresting people whenever you want. I was wondering why my parents suddenly resigned; I really thought they were just resting at home because of their health. Turns out it was your Bai family's doing! You Bai family are going too far! Now you're even slandering my family as bad elements! This isn't over! Come on, let's go see the leaders. I'm going to report you! Come with me!"

Qiao Wanqing was furious. She pushed the bicycle into Lu Mingzhou's hands, signaling him to take it home, and then pulled Bai Xue to go find the leader.

Bai Xue was furious and struggled to stay, shouting as she struggled, "Let me go! I won't go! I won't go! Lu Mingzhou is mine! You deliberately seduced him, Qiao Wanqing! My uncle won't let you get away with this! Don't even think about escaping! Your whole family will be doomed!"

Qiao Wanqing would never let her go. Such a good opportunity, wouldn't it be a waste not to take advantage of it?

Lu Mingzhou also realized that something was wrong, so he immediately pushed his bicycle home and followed after them with Qiao Yuanhe and Li Hongjun.

Qiao Wanqing dragged Bai Xue along to find the leader, arguing with her as they went, and crying as they argued.

A number of onlookers followed behind.

Bai Xue was a little more clear-headed at this point, and she was a bit scared. She refused to go no matter what.

How could Qiao Wanqing let her have her way?
