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

"What did you say?" Lu Zhenghan's eyes widened slightly, his jawline taut.

I said I'd better leave.

"I will ask Dean Gao again if he can still take me in. If not, I will work full-time as a street vendor."

Xia Qiuran repeated herself, this time with a more determined look in her eyes, because she had repeatedly dragged Lu Zhenghan, an innocent person, into this matter.

She spent so much money on clothes before, and now she's even knocked out Zhao Feng's teeth.

If investigated, it's unclear whether Lu Zhenghan will be punished.

Xia Qiuran was filled with self-reproach. She understood that Lu Zhenghan meant well and was being responsible to his subordinates, but if she continued to take advantage of Lu Zhenghan's kindness to solve her own problems, wouldn't she become a selfish person like Zhao Feng?

With her thoughts in complete disarray, Xia Qiuran thought it over and decided that leaving directly was the most reasonable course of action.

"Just because of Zhao Feng, you want to leave the army?" Lu Zhenghan's eyes were cold, and his deep voice clearly suppressed his anger.

"Yes, it's because of him." Xia Qiuran nodded.

"Xia Qiuran, can you please clear your head? Don't you know what kind of person he is?" Lu Zhenghan's eyes were deep, and there seemed to be a faint flame hidden in them.

"It's precisely because I know his character too well that I can't stay in the army any longer. Commander, you don't need to try to persuade me anymore," Xia Qiuran said calmly but resolutely.

"Xia Qiuran, I won't say anything if you leave the 45th Regiment to pursue a better future, but if you leave because of Zhao Feng, you will definitely regret it later."

Lu Zhenghan's brows were dark and deep, and his eyes were filled with anger.

Xia Qiuran lowered her head, her mind in turmoil. She was about to be promoted to a full-fledged member in the 45th Regiment, how could she bear to leave? But Zhao Feng kept causing trouble, and she was too embarrassed to implicate Lu Zhenghan again because of her personal matters.

"Commander Lu, you don't need to persuade me anymore. I've made up my mind. I'm leaving. Consider this my official statement to you today." Xia Qiuran's tone was resolute, and she ran away after speaking.

Lu Zhenghan clenched his fist and slammed it onto the bench with the very fist that Xia Qiuran had just applied the medicated oil to. Blood instantly seeped from the reddened knuckles.

Aunt Lü kept glancing over there, but she understood less and less.

"Oh, you seem angry. Why are you acting like you're having a fight with a young couple?"

...

Xia Qiuran strolled around the street for a while, then quickly returned to her stall. It wasn't until it was almost dark that she and Aunt Lü went back to the army base together.

Lu Zhenghan has already reported the matter of leaving the 45th Regiment, and it would be best to inform Zhou Guangming as soon as possible.

Before starting my internship, I can give the spot to someone else.

"Report."

Xia Qiuran walked into Zhou Guangming's office. Zhou Guangming, who was on the phone, slightly raised his hand to signal Xia Qiuran to wait a moment.

Zhou Guangming: "Don't worry, old chief. I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly. Zheng Han has always been steady and reliable. I believe he would never beat someone in the street for no reason."

"If he really made that mistake, you must not condone it because of me, and you must deal with this matter seriously."

The phone was very loud. After Zhou Guangming finished speaking, Xia Qiuran clearly heard a series of powerful words coming from the other end of the line.

Zhou Guangming: "Yes, yes, I understand, sir. I will inform you as soon as I have the results."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Guangming let out a heavy sigh.

"Political Commissar Zhou, has the regimental commander been punished for assaulting someone?" Xia Qiuran stepped forward and asked.

Zhou Guangming pressed his brow with his hand, looking helpless.

"Xia, you and Zhenghan are usually very steady people, how could you make such a mistake today?"

"Just because the price wasn't agreed upon, I punched someone, knocking out two of their teeth, fracturing their nose, and severely damaging their hearing."

Xia Qiuran's eyes were filled with turbulent emotions. It seemed that Lu Zhenghan had not revealed the real reason for hitting her in order to protect her reputation.

She saw Zhao Feng spit out a tooth, and he ran quite fast afterwards, so how could he be so badly injured?

"Political Commissar Zhou, could it be that the person who was beaten is exaggerating their injuries to try and extort money from the regimental commander?"

Based on Zhao Feng's consistent style, Xia Qiuran guessed.

"These are all diagnoses from regular hospitals. Who would dare to make such a false accusation against Commander Lu? Besides, I saw that person myself; half of his face and eyes were swollen so badly that he was unrecognizable."

Judging from Zhou Guangming's angry expression, the injuries are probably real. It seems that Zhao Feng was really badly beaten this time.

"Political Commissar, is there any way to overturn the punishment against the regimental commander?" Xia Qiuran asked again.

Zhou Guangming snorted: "It's a fact that he hit someone, and he admitted it himself. How can that be revoked?"

"Unless it is proven that the person who was assaulted was at fault first or the person who was assaulted forgives him, that taciturn guy will not say anything except that he admitted to assaulting the person."

"Political Commissar, I can testify that it was Zhao Feng who spoke rudely to me first, and the regimental commander couldn't stand it, so he hit him. Zhao Feng is not innocent in this matter either."

Xia Qiuran explained everything to Zhou Guangming in detail. Although Zhou Guangming was also angry after listening, he hesitated because the matter involved Xia Qiuran's reputation.

If word gets out, who knows what it will become, so I didn't make a decision right away.

"Political Commissar, may I go see the regimental commander?" Xia Qiuran asked.

"Go ahead, go ahead. If all else fails, have a good talk with Zhao Feng. He won't be in the right if this gets out. Advise Zheng Han to apologize. Don't let a moment of impulsiveness ruin your bright future. If they pursue this to the end, he'll get a serious demerit."

Zhou Guangming waved his hand and said.

A major demerit is a very severe punishment for a soldier, and it will affect future promotions, transfers, and retirements.

This matter was caused by her, and we absolutely cannot let Lu Zhenghan be severely punished for it.

Xia Qiuran stood in front of Lu Zhenghan's office for a while. Given his personality, he would probably rather be given a demerit than apologize.

If someone absolutely has to apologize to Zhao Feng, then it would be better for her to beg him.

Xia Qiuran pondered for a moment, then turned and ran towards the main gate.

...

On the other side, Zhao Feng's older sister, Zhao Juhua, looked at Zhao Feng lying on the bed with a pained expression, and cursed angrily.

"That heartless woman is so cruel, she actually allowed her lover to beat my brother like this."

Yang Yuqin, crying beside her, added fuel to the fire: "Big sister, Feng Ge is in this state because of Xia Qiuran. You must seek justice for Feng Ge!"

"Shut up, you still have the nerve to cry? If it weren't for your insistence on buying that beauty cream, would my brother have gone to find Xia Qiuran?" Zhao Juhua turned and glared at Yang Yuqin.

Yang Yuqin opened her mouth but didn't dare to argue loudly. She just pouted and said aggrievedly in a low voice.

"But in the end, it was because Brother Feng touched Xia Qiuran's hand and then teased her that the soldier got angry and hit her."

"What's so great about touching her hand? It's not like I slept with her. Besides, even if I did sleep with her, she deserves it. Who told her to look like a vixen?"

Zhao Juhua stood up with a fierce look on her face, her eyebrows raised, and she gritted her teeth.

"That little bitch, I think she just needs to be fucked."

"Xiaofeng, if you're a man, next time don't waste your breath on her, just take her and see how she'll have the face to live."
