The aloof military doctor arrives at the unit, and the tough guy can't sit still.

Xia Qiuran didn't pretend to be aloof and refuse; acting on impulse was something children did. Right now, she needed to seize every opportunity she could.

Her biggest problem right now is getting a household registration. If she can't resolve this issue, she'll have to live in hiding in the city, and if she gets caught, she'll be sent back to her hometown.

"Political Commissar Zhou, it's just bad luck. I don't blame anyone. I'll pack my things and leave first thing tomorrow morning, no, tonight. Please tell the regimental commander that I won't say goodbye to him in person."

Xia Qiuran said calmly that Lu Zhenghan would definitely not agree to her leaving if he knew in advance. Rather than dragging it out, it would be better to be decisive and tell him after moving to the rented house and completing all the departure procedures.

"Okay, don't worry, you're welcome to come back and visit often when you have time."

"Thank you, Political Commissar Zhou. I'll be going now."

As Xia Qiuran left Zhou Guangming's office, she couldn't say she was particularly upset, but she felt quite disappointed. She was so close to success, with a bright future ahead of her, how did things turn out like this?

Fortunately, I can stay in the city, but I have to start all over again.

...

Family compound, Aunt Lü's home.

The landlord, who had already received the deposit, suddenly sent someone to tell them that the house could no longer be rented and that the deposit would be returned.

When Aunt Lü heard this, she was furious. Everything had already been agreed upon, and Xia Qiuran was about to move in. Now, she was just saying she didn't want to rent anymore. How was she going to explain this to Xia Qiuran?

"Can't you guys have any credibility at all? How can you go back on your word after we've already agreed?"

At that time, there was no such thing as signing a contract when renting a house; it all depended on trust and word. So even if the other party went back on their word, there was nothing that could be done. Mrs. Lü could only express her dissatisfaction by raising her voice.

"Oh, Auntie, I don't know about that. I'm just passing on the word. I heard that the lady of the house refused to rent the place when she found out that the tenant was a single woman. You should ask them for the details."

The person who came left the deposit quickly and kept muttering to himself, "Why didn't you ask around beforehand? The woman in that house is a notoriously jealous woman. How could she possibly rent the house to a single woman?"

Having no other choice, Aunt Lü had to bite the bullet and go to Xia Qiuran, her face full of embarrassment.

He hesitated for a long time before finally speaking.

"Qiu Ran, look at the mess this has made. Why don't you come stay at my place for a while? I'll ask your brother Tie Tou to set up another bed for you."

"It's alright, Aunt Lü. I can just go home for now and find a place to rent later."

The Lu family of three is crammed into a room of just over 20 square meters. How could she have the nerve to move in? It's already very kind of Lu to help with the arrangements. Breach of contract is an accident, so the responsibility shouldn't be placed on her.

Aunt Lü was still worried: "Your home is so far away, how can you go home to stay? Besides, you're moving out tonight, so why don't you stay at my place for now?"

"It's really nothing, Aunt Lü. I'll go check on Shujuan later. Only her mother lives there, so it shouldn't be a problem for me to bother her for a couple of days."

Xia Qiuran thought for a moment and replied that it was not good to trouble anyone, but given the current situation, she had no choice but to swallow her pride and go to Shujuan and her daughter's place, which was better than going to Aunt Lü's family of three.

Seeing Xia Qiuran say this, Aunt Lü didn't say anything more, but seeing how difficult things were for her, she thought for a moment and couldn't help but speak up again.

"Qiu Ran, now that you and the regimental commander have parted ways, how about I introduce you to someone else? That way, you'll have an easier time in the city."

"Sister Lü, no need, I have a boyfriend." Xia Qiuran paused for a moment, then quickly replied.

"what?"

Aunt Lü stared wide-eyed, her face filled with disbelief.

She's only been separated from the group leader for a few days and she's already found a new partner? That's too fast!

But then I thought about it again and it didn't seem wrong. A woman's prime years are only a few years long, how can she waste her time on one tree?

"Who is it? Do I know them?" Aunt Lü asked.

"He's just an ordinary person, you'll find out later." Thinking of Lu Zhenghan, Xia Qiuran blushed inexplicably.

Aunt Lü smiled along, judging from Xia Qiuran's demeanor this time, she must be someone Xia Qiuran really likes.

"Will he help you move today?"

"If he knew, he would definitely come back to help me," Xia Qiuran said casually.

"Alright, Aunt Lü, I'll get back to work now. Thank you for your help."

Fearing that saying too much might inadvertently reveal Lu Zhenghan's existence, Xia Qiuran left a message and returned to the infirmary.

She was only back for a short time this time, and there wasn't much work to hand over. Her luggage was already packed, and she was just waiting for the time to walk out of the gate of the 45th Regiment.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the medical room, Bai Yunyun, who had gone to get water, overheard their conversation. Her eyes immediately lit up after hearing it.

He quickly summarized the most important information in his mind.

Xia Qiuran is leaving today; her boyfriend turned out to be an ordinary person.

So the person who kissed her before wasn't the leader.

Bai Yunyun was finally relieved and overjoyed.

It seems no one knows Xia Qiuran is leaving. The reason she's keeping such a low profile is probably because she's afraid people will see her ordinary boyfriend.

After all, Xia Qiuran's ex-boyfriend was Lu Zhenghan, the regimental commander. Now, she's been dating lower and lower-ranking men, and can only find an ordinary person. Anyone would not want others to know about this.

Among these ordinary people, Zhang Xiaoliang is the most likely candidate.

Xia Qiuran, you've finally met your match.

An ordinary person with an ordinary person, a country girl, this is the result you deserve.

You think you can leave unscathed? Dream on! Hmph, Xia Qiuran, the more you try to hide your ordinary boyfriend from others, the more I'll make sure everyone knows.

Then we'll see how everyone laughs at you.

Bai Yunyun glanced at the time, and before she could even put her water cup back, she ran out, telling everyone she met along the way.

Before long, many people knew about it, but she kept it to herself and didn't say a word to anyone in the same class who was related to Zhang Xiaoliang.

They haven't made it public yet, for fear that Zhang Xiaoliang won't see Xia Qiuran off until the news gets out.

Bai Yunyun made a long detour through the military base before finally arriving at Lu Zhenghan's office.

"Report."

I stood at the door and shouted loudly, and only went in after receiving permission.

Lu Zhenghan, who was organizing the training plan, frowned slightly when he saw Bai Yunyun.

"What's up?"

Bai Yunyun: "Reporting to the commander, I have something to discuss, but it's not official business."

"If it's not official business, then don't talk about it. Get out," Lu Zhenghan replied without looking up.

"But this matter concerns the honor of our unit. As a member of the unit, I feel it is my responsibility to speak out." Bai Yunyun naturally wouldn't go out, but instead spoke again in a serious tone.

"Dr. Bai, your biggest responsibility is to cure the sick soldiers. There's no need to say anything else."

Lu Zhenghan picked up another document, a hint of indifference and impatience flashing in his eyes.
