Seeing that Bai Yunyun was getting more and more agitated, she was making such a loud noise, clearly wanting everyone to know that Xia Qiuran had shamelessly spent the night in the same room with a man.

Let everyone, whether they know her or not, condemn Xia Qiuran.

Now that things have happened, Lu Zhenghan and Xia Qiuran can't deny it even if they want to. There are so many eyes watching in the hospital. Lu Zhenghan didn't go back to his place.

Once Xia Qiuran's reputation for shamelessness is established, let's see if Lu Zhenghan will still want a woman like that.

Bai Yunyun was extremely pleased with herself; she wanted to see how Xia Qiuran would escape this time.

Xia Qiuran nervously clenched her fingers. In this day and age, being caught in a room with a man and a woman is a serious offense. If they don't get married, the only outcome will be that the man is criticized and the woman will never be able to hold her head up high again.

She didn't doubt Lu Zhenghan's character. If such a thing really happened, Lu Zhenghan would definitely overcome all the pressure to marry her. But the problem was that she didn't want to get married so early. There were still many things she wanted to accomplish that she hadn't finished yet, and she didn't want to be tied down in marriage so soon.

Moreover, can a marriage forced upon us by external forces last?

"Commander Lu, I'm sorry, Yunyun is injured and may be a little agitated. Please don't take it to heart. I'll take her away right away."

Just as Xia Qiuran was at a loss, Bai Xia stepped forward to apologize.

"aunt…"

Bai Yunyun tugged at Bai Xia with disbelief in her eyes, but Bai Xia ignored her.

In the end, Bai Yunyun was grabbed by the arm and led away from there by Bai Xia.

"Auntie, this is such a great opportunity, why won't you let me continue?" Bai Yunyun was still fuming after being dragged away.

Bai Xia glared at Bai Yunyun with exasperation: "Continue? Have you considered the consequences?"

Bai Yunyun retorted, "The consequence was naturally that Xia Qiuran was expelled from the army."

"Idiot, you've been through a hundred things and you still haven't learned a thing or two."

"You still don't understand?" Bai Xia said angrily, poking Bai Yunyun's head with her finger.

"The man who was in the room with Xia Qiuran is Lu Zhenghan. If this matter really blows up, do you think Lu Zhenghan would just stand by and watch her be sent back to the countryside?"

Bai Yunyun stumbled back several steps, her voice growing weaker and weaker: "Could it be that Brother Zhenghan will marry her?"

Bai Xia continued, "How is that impossible? Lu Zhenghan's gaze towards Xia Qiuran has never changed; it's obvious he still has feelings for her."

"Wouldn't letting Xia Qiuran stay in the army still be a huge hidden danger?" Bai Yunyun knew that Bai Xia was right, and she had indeed acted impulsively just now, but she still felt very uncomfortable.

"Don't worry, just follow my lead from now on."

Bai Xia didn't say anything more. Her niece's brain was like mush, and sometimes talking too much wasn't a good thing. She narrowed her eyes, her cunning pupils seeming to be brewing something even more wicked.

...

After a few days of rest, Xia Dazhi was finally able to be discharged from the hospital, and Xia Qiuran also ushered in the last day of her internship.

She didn't tell her parents that she had failed her internship because she was afraid they would worry.

Xia Qiuran felt quite fortunate.

Her father was discharged from the hospital today, and she will be sent back to her unit tomorrow. By then, her parents will have already arrived home, so she can tell them about this later.

Just as they finished packing their luggage and were about to leave the ward, Zhao Feng rushed over from outside.

"At least we're not too late. Uncle Xia, Aunt Xia, Qiu Ran, let's go."

"Comrade Zhao, what brings you here?"

Xia Qiuran stepped forward and looked Zhao Feng up and down, feeling somewhat puzzled. According to his usual style, seeing someone off at the station would involve the question of who pays for the ride, so he should have made an excuse not to come today. Why did he suddenly come over?

"Of course I'm here to take Uncle Xia home, Qiu Ran. Today I'm going to prove to you that I'm not the kind of stingy person who only cares about profit that you say I am."

Zhao Feng spoke with absolute certainty, making it seem as if he had actually chartered a car to pick up Xia Dazhi.

Even a miser will pluck his own feathers now?

Xia Qiuran didn't believe it and asked again, full of doubt, "You really found a car?"

She thought to herself, "If there really is a car to take my father back, that would be good. At worst, I can just pay Zhao Feng back. He did so many bad things to me in my previous life. Using the car he found for me in this life isn't taking advantage of him."

"Of course, it's a light truck. The truck that delivers goods to the supply and marketing cooperative today is going to the commune. I've already told my dad that Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia can hitch a ride back with me."

After saying this with a proud expression, Zhao Feng went to take the luggage that Xia Qiuran was carrying.

It was free of charge and they could take him directly home. Luckily, his father mentioned it when he called home yesterday, and he managed to catch this ride. This saved him money and did him a favor at the same time, truly killing two birds with one stone.

Xia Qiuran then recalled what kind of car Zhao Feng was talking about.

Every so often, the commune's supply and marketing cooperative would hire light trucks to transport goods for sale. Since the fare for light trucks was not cheap, several communes would usually pool their money together. Each time, the truck bed was always full of goods, leaving no room for people to sit. There was an empty seat in the front passenger seat, but it would also be crammed full of goods.

"No need, the truck is too bumpy. My dad just had surgery and it's not suitable for him to ride in that truck. Besides, every time he delivers goods, that truck is loaded to the brim with cargo, there's no room for people."

Xia Qiuran turned to the side, intending to lead her parents past.

But Zhao Feng had no intention of giving up and continued to pursue Xia Ran.

"Qiuran, isn't taking a long-distance bus just as bumpy? I've already thought about the problem you mentioned."

After saying that, he immediately took out a bundle of rope from his pocket and showed it to Xia Qiuran.

"Look."

Xia Qiuran was completely stunned when she saw the bundle of hemp rope, which was as thick as a thumb. She looked up at Zhao Feng in disbelief.

But Zhao Feng still didn't see any problem, and there was even a hint of smugness in his eyes.

You can get a ride home for free; what more could you ask for?

"Have Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia sit on those goods, and then use this rope to hold them up. That should ensure there are no problems."

Xia Qiuran's eyes were already fixed on Zhao Feng with a fierce gaze, like knives.

"What do you take my parents for? Goods, to be tied up and taken home?"

"Qiu Ran, how can this be tied up for home? This is a seatbelt. Even the driver in front has to wear this," Zhao Feng continued nonchalantly.

"Keep it for yourself."

"Mom and Dad, let's go."

Xia Qiuran supported Xia Dazhi and then glared at Zhao Feng with obvious disgust.

Zhao Feng grabbed the rope and quickly chased after it. When they reached the door, they saw the light truck loaded with goods waiting by the roadside.

A light blue light truck, its cargo bed overflowing, and the cab also packed full.

If she really took this car back, Xia Qiuran couldn't imagine where her parents would be tied up.
