"Xiao Yao, are you there? Don't be afraid, I've brought people to rescue you."

"Director Wang, this is it! I just heard cries for help inside. Quick, break down the door, or it'll be too late..."

A conversation broke out outside, and Cheng Ji instinctively shielded Fu Yao behind her.

Fu Yao didn't want Liu Shaoqing to have a chance to talk nonsense, so he patted Cheng Ji's hand and opened the door himself.

The group outside clearly hadn't expected the door to open, and their attempt to ram it down now seemed incredibly awkward.

Liu Shaoqing was even more shocked. How could this be?

"Xiao Yao, you're not..."

Liu Shaoqing's eyes swept back and forth between Fu Yao and Cheng Ji. Seeing that the two were dressed neatly and had clear eyes, the confident expression on his face turned somewhat flustered.

Where exactly did things go wrong? Did Cheng Ji hold back? That shouldn't be the case; he administered the dosage of that medicine with the intention of killing someone.

"What am I? Liu Shaoqing, are you surprised to see me perfectly fine?" Fu Yao saw Liu Shaoqing's ashen face and a hint of hatred flashed in his eyes.

"You..." Liu Shaoqing was frightened by the hatred in Fu Yao's eyes. His eyes darted around unnaturally, and he tried to remain calm as he continued to probe.

"Look at what you're saying! I only asked Director Wang from the committee to come and help because I was worried something might happen to you!"

"Xiao Yao, don't be stubborn, come here quickly."

Liu Shaoqing acted like a protector, but it made Fu Yao feel nauseous.

Looking at the group of people wearing the committee armbands at the door, she knew that if she had woken up even a little later, Liu Shaoqing would have nailed her to the pillar of shame.

Seeing that Fu Yao did not move, Liu Shaoqing wanted to rush into the room to find out what was going on, but was deterred by Cheng Ji's warning look.

Seeing Liu Shaoqing's setback, Wang Guangming, the head of the committee, looked seriously at Fu Yao and Cheng Ji.

"Hello, comrades. We received a report that someone is suspected of committing home invasion and rape here. What is your relationship with each other?"

"Show us your marriage certificate and letter of introduction, otherwise we have every reason to suspect that you are having an improper relationship."

It is 1974, and men and women are reserved and conservative in their interactions. For them to be alone in a room like this is, to put it bluntly, promiscuous.

Upon hearing this, Liu Shaoqing couldn't help but smile again. Indeed, experience counts; luckily, he had invited Uncle Wang.

Now that this huge label has been put on him, let's see how Cheng Ji manages to break free.

And then there's Fu Yao, who not only looks like a vixen, but is also a slut at heart. He switched sides after just one night with Cheng Ji.

Liu Shaoqing looked at Fu Yao, his eyes filled with the anger of betrayal. In his heart, he could do without Fu Yao, but Fu Yao could not betray him.

Fu Yao frowned as he listened to Wang Guangming's malicious words.

In her past life, she was caught in bed cheating and was in a daze, unaware of what had happened.

But now it seems that all of this was prepared by Liu Shaoqing, and even the members of the Geography Committee are probably people Liu Shaoqing knows.

The moment Cheng Ji saw Liu Shaoqing, he understood who was behind all this. He stepped forward and took out his identification.

He said solemnly, "Comrade, I am Cheng Ji, an associate professor at the Military and Political University. This is my identification."

"My relationship with Comrade Fu Yao was legitimate; there was no question of forced entry and rape."

Wang Guangming already knew Cheng Ji's identity. He took the documents, didn't even glance at them, and started labeling him.

"So you don't have a marriage certificate? Then what are you two doing alone in a room? If you can't explain it, then come with me to the police station."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding passengers began to point and whisper.

Cheng Ji pursed her lips, completely obscuring Fu Yao's face, and looked at Wang Guangming with a hint of anger in her eyes.

"Yes, Xiao Yao. Don't be afraid. Tell us if this person bullied you. Don't worry, we'll all stand up for you."

Liu Shaoqing's expression shifted, looking at Fu Yao with a pained expression. He reached out his hand, adopting the posture of a caring older brother.

Seeing Liu Shaoqing's feigned gentleness, Fu Yao almost vomited.

Seeing Wang Guangming's menacing look from the side, she knew that today's event was aimed at killing Cheng Ji.

And as someone in the know, she can't escape the consequences either.

She took a deep breath and stepped forward to hold Cheng Ji's hand.

Cheng Ji turned around in surprise, but seeing Fu Yao's confident demeanor, he subconsciously remained silent. He simply took the girl's hand in return, offering her reassurance.

"Hello comrade, my name is Fu Yao, and I'm from Lijiahe Brigade, An County. I've come to Beijing to get my marriage certificate with my fiancé."

"Here, this is the letter of introduction that our battalion commander gave me."

"My fiancé just arrived and wanted to take me out for breakfast, so he went into the room, but the whole 'break-in and rape' thing is just absurd."

Fu Yao displayed the letter of introduction openly and generously in front of everyone.

At that time, the captain's pen was out of ink, and she was in a hurry to catch the bus, so the captain filled in the information with a pencil.

The first thing she did after taking out her ID was to change Cheng Ji's name onto it, and now it came in handy.

Wang Guangming frowned and looked at Liu Shaoqing. He knew nothing about this!

Liu Shaoqing turned pale as he looked at the smile on Fu Yao's face.

How could he have forgotten about that!

He knew that the letter of introduction in Fu Yao's hand was forged, but he dared not say it.

Once he tells the truth, he's finished.

"Xiao Yao, what are you saying? He's not your fiancé!" Liu Shaoqing glared at Fu Yao, trying to make her change her mind.

But Fu Yao was destined to disappoint him.

"That's ridiculous. If he's not my fiancé, then you are! Do you think this letter of introduction would lie?" Fu Yao scoffed.

By this time, Liu Shaoqing had already been fawning over Sun Qianqian. Therefore, Fu Yao was certain that he wouldn't dare admit it.

Liu Shaoqing dared not admit it, his face a mixture of red and blue.

Cheng Ji stepped forward at this opportune moment.

"Director Wang, do you have any other questions? If not, I'm going to take my fiancée out for breakfast."

"As for you, Liu Shaoqing. I remember the Military and Political University had a full schedule. What are you doing here?"

"Let me tell you, you've already failed the exam once. If you fail again, you'll definitely be expelled. At that point, even if your father-in-law begs and pleads, it won't be of any use."

Fu Yao was stunned by Cheng Ji's powerful aura; she was completely different from how she was in bed just now.

Only at this moment did she truly realize that Cheng Ji was a decisive and ruthless soldier.

Liu Shaoqing blushed instantly. Wang Guangming shook his head upon seeing this.

Old Sun's son-in-law is really too impatient.

He turned to look at Fu Yao and Cheng Ji, his tone still serious.

"In that case, please provide us with your marriage certificate for our records. Otherwise, words alone won't be enough proof."

Fu Yao tightened his grip on Cheng Ji's hand instantly. Cheng Ji sensed her emotions and patted the back of her hand reassuringly.

"Okay, I'll have my grandfather personally deliver the wedding candy to you then."

Cheng Ji spoke calmly, but Wang Guangming's face stiffened, and he could no longer say anything.

Cheng Ji's grandfather, Cheng Weihua, was a very prominent figure in Beijing. In his early years, his father received a lot of guidance from Cheng Weihua.

Now that Cheng Ji had pointed it out, Wang Guangming dared not utter a word.

Although he is now the director of the committee and has everything he wants, if he really offends the Cheng family too much, his father will definitely not let him off the hook.

Seeing Liu Shaoqing's hopeless state, Wang Guangming sighed inwardly. He had made a terrible mistake. He should have done something for Liu Shaoqing out of consideration for Lao Sun.

Wang Guangming regretted it more and more, gave Cheng Ji an awkward smile, and dared not say another word.

Upon hearing Wang Guangming's words, Liu Shaoqing, who was standing to the side, arrogantly breathed a sigh of relief.

He still believes that Fu Yao was angry simply because she found out the truth about his marriage to Sun Qianqian that he had kept secret.

He'll coax her into not getting a marriage certificate with Cheng Ji, and that bastard Cheng Ji will be dead!

The group came in a haughty manner, but left in a dejected manner.

After everyone left, Fu Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If he had returned even a little later, Liu Shaoqing's plan would have succeeded.

However, this marriage certificate...

"you......"

"you......"

The two spoke at the same time.

Fu Yao timidly looked up at Cheng Ji, then lowered his head again with some worry.

She didn't think too much about it at the time; she just wanted to resolve the immediate crisis.

Wang Guangming's words caught her completely off guard. If she and Cheng Ji didn't get their marriage certificate now, they would be having an affair and would be in for a world of trouble.

But wouldn't Cheng Ji think he was scheming against him again?

Fu Yao subconsciously touched his stomach; at this point, there should already be a baby inside.

What if Cheng Ji doesn't have a good impression of her? If she wants to have the babies now, she definitely has to get married.

As the children's biological father, Cheng Ji is undoubtedly the best candidate.

Fu Yao bit her lip; she really had no experience interacting with men. Her only friend, Liu Shaoqing, had even caused her this much trouble.

"What's wrong? Does your stomach hurt?" A deep voice came from above, tinged with a barely perceptible hint of panic.

Cheng Ji bent down slightly, his military uniform mingling with the scent of soapberry and camphor balls, enveloping Fu Yao completely.

He noticed that Fu Yao's face was pale and assumed that he had accidentally hurt her last night.

"Does your stomach hurt?" Cheng Ji's voice deepened a bit. He reached out to touch her lower abdomen, but stopped halfway through, his fingertips curling slightly.

Before Fu Yao could answer, he bent down and steadily picked him up in his arms.

"Come on, I'll take you to the hospital."

Suddenly suspended in mid-air, Fu Yao instinctively wrapped her arms around the man's neck. Through the thin shirt, Fu Yao seemed to hear Cheng Ji's rapid and powerful heartbeat.

"No, no, I... I just feel like I meant well but messed things up, I'm sorry!" Fu Yao buried his face in Cheng Ji's arms and murmured.

"Are you really alright?" Cheng Ji looked down at Fu Yao.

He was still somewhat uneasy, after all, what he saw this morning was truly shocking.

Moreover, he had choked her neck, and thinking about this made Cheng Ji even more worried.

Summer clothes are thin, and after all that moving around, the red marks on Fu Yao's body were clearly visible.

"Ah? It's okay, it's okay! Put me down!" Fu Yao followed Cheng Ji's gaze and quickly covered his collar, his already shy face turning bright red.

"That lecherous bastard deserves a beating," Fu Yao thought to himself.

Seeing the little girl's bright red ears and her neck flushed crimson, Cheng Ji's eyes darkened. After a while, he finally put her down.

Seeing Fu Yao lower his head and remain silent, Cheng Ji rubbed his fingers together, feeling as if he could still feel the delicate touch of the young girl's skin on his fingertips.

He understood what Fu Yao meant, but he only felt that God had been kind to him.

The moment Cheng Ji saw Fu Yao, he knew he was doomed.

And this crisis is his perfect opportunity!
