"Baby, Rere, are you alright?"

Lu Yanzheng dared not take another step forward, fearing that any further movement would agitate her and harm the baby in her womb.

He stood frozen in place, not daring to move, yet his heart was burning with anxiety, like being fried in oil.

Watching his wife sit on the cold ground and cry bitterly, he felt as if a thousand steel needles were piercing his heart.

My heart is breaking.

A larger crowd gathered behind him, pointing and whispering, some condemning, some spitting, some sighing...

A cacophony of sounds flooded his ears like a tidal wave.

There were even a few kind-hearted older women who said he had bullied a pregnant woman and wanted to send him to the police station.

Chaos erupted at the alley entrance.

Sun Zhigang, who was sitting some distance away smoking out of boredom, heard the commotion and quickly put out his cigarette, then ran over to see what was going on.

But upon pushing through the crowd, they discovered it was Xiao Re and Lu Yanzheng.

I was immediately taken aback!

"Commander Lu? Sister-in-law? What are you doing here?"

Lu Yanzheng was in a state of panic and didn't care about the rumors around him. His tone was as urgent as a mad bull that had been shot.

"Xiao Sun, quick! Find me a car to take your sister-in-law to the hospital. She says her stomach hurts!"

Sun Zhigang quickly responded:

"Okay, okay! Lu Tuan, don't worry, your sister-in-law has her own car, I'll go get it right now. Pick her up first."

Lu Yanzheng's low, hoarse voice betrayed his anxious panic, and he was sweating profusely. The veins on his neck bulged, but he forced himself to remain still and dared not get any closer.

"No!"

"Xiao Sun, could you please help me support her? Your sister-in-law won't let me touch her."

Sun Zhi took a step forward, but quickly withdrew.

He wouldn't dare!

Everyone in the military region knows that Lu Baozi loves his wife dearly and spoils her rotten; he's a complete jealous old man.

Normally, let alone touching his wife, even a glance from someone else would earn him a cold stern warning. Now, asking him to personally help her up? That would be like asking for trouble!

Besides, he's right here, so why ask him for help?

If this heartless leopard comes back to settle scores later, he wouldn't have enough lives to pay for it!

Sun Zhigang waved his hand sheepishly and took several steps back:

"Um... Commander Lu, why don't you do it?"

"This...there's a difference between men and women, it's really not suitable for me!"

Lu Yanzheng was both anxious and impatient. He wanted to do it himself, but he was afraid that his wife would get even angrier, so he could only push her away.

"I told you to help, so you helped. I gave you permission!"

"Hurry up! Stop dawdling!"

Just as Sun Zhigang was struggling with his decision, Xiao Congwen and He Yingying, who had just received their marriage certificate, rushed over from the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Xiao Congwen pushed through the crowd and looked up to see his younger sister curled up on the cold floor, her face covered in tears, crying pitifully and aggrievedly.

My heart suddenly clenched, and the pain was unbearable.

He strode forward, bent down, and carefully picked up his sister who had fallen to the ground. His gentle and refined eyes were instantly filled with tenderness and anger.

"Little trouble!"


Lu Yanzheng had never met Xiao Congwen, nor had he ever heard Xiao Re mention that he had an older brother.

He was furious when he saw a strange man hugging his wife and calling her so intimately.

A surge of intense jealousy welled up inside him, and his anger surged. He swung his fist and smashed it hard against Xiao Congwen's refined and gentle face.

"Bang--!"

Caught completely off guard, Xiao Congwen had no time to react before being struck by a sudden, powerful punch that shattered his skull, caused his nose to bleed profusely, and nearly knocked him to the ground.

Even Xiao Re, who was in his arms, was thrown away and snatched back into Lu Yanzheng's arms.

Seeing Xiao Congwen's nose bleeding profusely, his face pale, and his swaying gait, He Yingying screamed in terror!

"Brother Zheng, why are you hitting someone? Are you crazy?!"

Sun Zhigang stood aside, secretly sweating, relieved that he had retreated quickly.

Thankfully, he had his brain! He didn't help his sister-in-law!

Otherwise, he would be the one getting beaten up right now!

Xiao Re was already full of grievances and furious, and then this bastard kissed her forcefully, making her lower abdomen ache with anger.

Right now, my brother has been inexplicably punched by this madman.

She could no longer bear it, and her anger erupted. Without hesitation, she raised her arm and slapped Lu Yanzheng hard across the face!

"Lu Yanzheng! You bastard!"

The anger in his eyes was almost burning.

The crisp, loud slap, accompanied by a burning pain, shattered the man's proud face.

When Lu Yanzheng saw Xiao Re protecting another man and even attacking him in public, he was instantly filled with rage and jealousy. His eyes turned bloodshot and he roared fiercely.

"Xiao Re! You're still protecting him!"

"Who is this strange man?"

His eyes were filled with murderous intent, and his aura was chilling and terrifying. He was just like a crazed and out-of-control iron leopard, clearly ready to fight to the death.

Seeing the situation spiraling out of control, Lu Yanzheng raised his fist high again. Sun Zhigang was terrified and rushed forward, grabbing him tightly and shouting for an explanation:

"Commander Lu, don't be angry!"

"He's your brother-in-law!"

Lu Yanzheng...

Speechless!

Like a complete idiot who had gotten himself into trouble, he stood there dumbfounded, utterly bewildered!

Brother-in-law?

Isn't that Rere's older brother?

We're doomed! The sky has fallen!

No wonder he got slapped! He deserved it!

His wife was already very angry, and his father-in-law was also dissatisfied with him. Now things have gotten even worse!

Did I completely offend my brother-in-law too?

Now... what should we do?

"Um, I'm sorry! Brother-in-law, I didn't mean to... I..."

Lu Yanzheng was so anxious that he didn't know what to do, so he simply punched himself twice.

"Brother-in-law, is it... alright now?"

"If that's not enough! Hit me again! I... promise I won't fight back!"

Xiao Re's icy gaze, like a frost-covered blade, angrily warned him.

"Lu Yanzheng! That's enough!"

"I'll count to three. If you don't get out by then, we're getting a divorce right now!"

The heartless words pierced Lu Yanzheng's heart like a sharp blade.

He stood frozen in place, his lips trembling, speechless and filled with remorse. He could only watch helplessly as Xiao Re and Xiao Congwen left.

Even He Yingying inexplicably got into the car.

Lu Yanzheng was left standing there alone, looking disheveled and forlorn, completely lost and helpless.

He took a step forward, wanting to chase after the red car that had started moving ahead, but was held back by two plainclothes teammates who had arrived unexpectedly.

"Commander Lu, the boss is looking for you. It's an emergency. He wants you to rush out and carry out a mission to coax Qin Shuyao back."

"Otherwise, the entire plan will be scrapped."

Lu Yanzheng was furious, his anger and panic churning in his chest, making him stagger even as he ran.

In his blank mind, there was only one thought: to win back his wife.

"What kind of bullshit mission is this? I'm not doing it!"

"Now, my wife wants a divorce and has to go to the hospital because of stomach pain. I can't even take care of my own wife and children, and she still wants me to go on a mission."

"I don't care what kind of bullshit plan it is, if it's scrapped, it's scrapped!"
