"It's fake, don't listen to her. I've already checked, she's just a country girl from the countryside, how would she know so much? She must have made fake documents to deceive people."

The business administration personnel were quick-witted and slipped the documents into their pockets before they could finish speaking.

"It turns out they were fake. According to procedure, I need to confiscate these documents now."

"Give it back to me! What makes you think my ID is fake?"

Xia Qiuran reached out to take it back, but the business personnel easily dodged her.

"Why should I? Because of the clothes I'm wearing!" The business officer sneered, raising his head as he spoke.

"Now you're not only selling counterfeit drugs, but also using fake certificates to deceive people. I'm telling you, these two crimes alone are enough to put you in jail for several years."

"Let's go, let's notify the police to come and arrest them together," Director Liu said smugly.

"Don't leave! Give me back my documents!" Xia Qiuran said anxiously.

At that time, the system was not so perfect. The medical test reports from the hospital and the business registration documents from the industry and commerce department were his only proof, and he absolutely could not let these people take them away.

However, Director Liu and his group did not take Xia Qiuran seriously at all. Not only did they not return the paperwork, but they also looked at her with a mocking expression.

"Put your documents down."

As the group turned to leave, Lu Zhenghan silently walked behind them.

"Who are you? Mind your own business and go cool off somewhere else. Let me tell you, you have no right to speak here," Director Liu said angrily.

"If you want to verify the authenticity of the documents, according to procedure you should go to the relevant department with the vendor to investigate, instead of taking the documents away on your own," Lu Zhenghan said, staring at the group and lowering his voice.

"Our business administration office has been reduced to having a lousy street vendor like you in charge."

Lu Zhenghan was wearing his own clothes today, and the business personnel thought he was one of the people who set up a stall with Xia Qiuran, so they pointed at him and shouted.

Lu Zhenghan's eyes were sharp as knives, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and a chilling aura emanated from him. His chest heaved slightly, as if his anger was about to erupt at any moment.

Director Liu chimed in, "Exactly! You think I'm afraid of you just because you brought your man to help you set up your stall?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Upon hearing this, Xia Qiuran quickly stepped forward to stop her.

"Am I wrong? He's not your man, why would he stand up for you like this?"

"But it's no use him sticking his neck out. You can forget about setting up a stall here anytime soon," Director Liu continued, his big, round eyes wide.

Xia Qiuran was furious. How could he be so arrogant? She turned to look at Lu Zhenghan, only to find that Lu Zhenghan's originally sharp eyes had become somewhat calm, and the corners of his mouth had even curved slightly.

Lu Zhenghan stepped forward, originally intending to punish these people who abused their power, but after hearing the words "your man," he suddenly felt less angry.

He simply took out his identification and said calmly.

"I am Lu Zhenghan from the 45th Regiment. This is my identification. If you insist on questioning the validity of the stall's identification, I can go with you to the relevant department to verify it. But if you insist on taking the identification away, then I will have to go to your leader."

The business administration personnel took the certificate with some skepticism, but their faces turned pale when they saw the words "regiment commander".

A bright red stamp on the document is absolutely certain.

The regimental commander's rank is higher than that of their leader. Although they are not in the same department, their relationships are connected. If Lu Zhenghan goes to confront him, he will definitely suffer the consequences.

"You old Liu, how dare you falsely accuse legitimate businesses! If I hadn't discovered it in time, I would have been led astray by you."

The business administration officer was a flexible person; after looking at the documents, he immediately slapped Director Liu on the head.

He turned around, respectfully handed over the confiscated documents with both hands, and said in a serious tone:

"Commander Lu, I am truly sorry. I listened to this villain's slander. These are my credentials. Your wife runs a legitimate business and has absolutely not engaged in any illegal or disorderly conduct."

"What 'Your Majesty'? Don't talk nonsense, I and..."

Xia Qiuran was about to defend herself when Lu Zhenghan stopped her.

"Alright, I won't pursue this matter this time. But if it happens again, don't blame me for being impolite."

Business administration official: "Yes, yes, we'll be right there."

Director Liu covered his head and tried to speak, but was silenced by a single look from the business administration staff.

"Commander, they've misunderstood. I'll go explain to them."

Fearing that people would spread rumors, Xia Qiuran wanted to chase after him to explain, but Lu Zhenghan looked indifferent.

"They're just some insignificant people, why bother saying so much?"

"Exactly, why bother telling them so much? We're really lucky to have the team leader here today, otherwise we would have been in real trouble," Aunt Lü quickly said, stepping forward.

She thought to herself, "What if these people come again next time? They've misunderstood the relationship between Xia Qiuran and the group leader, so it'll be easier to talk to them next time."

"By the way, Xia, wasn't there always this guy causing you trouble? Since the commander is here, why don't you take him to talk to him and get things cleared up?"

Aunt Lü then suggested that she had encountered Zhao Feng once before when she was setting up her stall. He was like a persistent scoundrel, constantly pestering Xia Qiuran. Since Lu Zhenghan was here today, why not resolve this trouble together?

"No need, no need. There was a misunderstanding before. Comrade Zhao has a partner now and won't bother me anymore," Xia Qiuran quickly refused.

Because Zhao Feng's matter has already caused Lu Zhenghan too much trouble, she absolutely cannot trouble him again because of this.

"I don't think he's the kind of person who'll let go easily. He looks respectable on the outside, but he's full of scheming in his heart. He talks a good game, but he's actually the most selfish person. Xia, you must not be fooled by that kind of man." Aunt Lu recalled Zhao Feng's appearance, her eyes still full of disgust.

Xia Qiuran: "No, he and I have nothing to do with each other anymore."

Aunt Lü, however, became curious. She had been too embarrassed to ask before, but now that the topic had come up, she decided to ask for clarification.

"Hey, Xia, don't blame Aunt Lu for being nosy, but how could someone as beautiful and outstanding as you have fallen for him in the first place?"

Xia Qiuran paused in her hand as she heard the question, her thoughts immediately returning to when she first met Zhao Feng.

To be honest, when the matchmaker first brought Zhao Feng to her, her heartstrings were indeed plucked.

Although his face was thin, his features were exceptionally refined. He was gentle and refined in his demeanor, and his smile was very friendly. He seemed to be from a completely different world from the men Xia Qiuran usually met.

This might be a case of all that glitters on the outside, but rotten inside.

"Maybe it's because of my appearance," Xia Qiuran replied casually.

"Appearance?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhenghan pursed his lips tightly, his eyes filled with coldness.

"If he stays single, would you still get back together with him?" Lu Zhenghan suddenly blurted out.

"Of course not," Xia Qiuran stated clearly.

She's not stupid enough to jump into a fire pit knowing it's a trap.

"Qiu Ran." Just then, a familiar voice came.

Xia Qiuran looked up and saw that it was actually Zhao Feng and Yang Yuqin. Her expression immediately turned cold.

Lu Zhenghan stared at Zhao Feng's face for two seconds, as if he found it particularly irritating.
