Tong Yafu immediately stood up and bowed politely to Pei Yongzhong. "Hello, Uncle Pei," Yafu called out spinelessly, earning a disdainful roll of the eyes from Pei Chuxia, who looked at her as though she was being overly obsequious.

Yafu didn't mind at all, gladly accepting the scornful look from Chu Xia with a slight smile tugging at her lips. She caught Ao Chi's probing gaze inadvertently, then triumphantly raised her eyebrows at him with a 'what can you do about it?' attitude, before feeling secretly thrilled inside. Take that, for giving me a hard time, for giving me a hard time.

"The seriousness is overstated, Commander. No need for a bail; she is my little wife. She hasn't committed any serious crime, I will take her away myself," Commander Shan said in a completely proper manner, his tone not betraying anything amiss.

Yafu watched Ao Chi, who was shamelessly speaking, her lips twitching slightly. Good heavens—wasn't this man afraid of biting his tongue while saying this? What was it he had said before? Eat prison food, not see tomorrow's sun, damn it... which statement was not a threat?

Pei Yongzhong was momentarily surprised, then a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes, his gaze shifting back and forth between the two young people, as he suddenly realized.

No wonder everyone in the military said that the handsome Commander Shan was married; he hadn't expected it to be true, and that his wife was none other than the good friend who grew up playing with Chu Xia—Tong Yafu. Heh, how interesting.

"It seems I took an unnecessary step," Pei Yongzhong said, full of mirth, then turned his head to look at Chu Xia next to him, his face falling.

"Aren't you leaving? What, do you really want to spend the night here?" Pei Yongzhong looked at Chu Xia displeasedly, as if he was frustrated at her failure to meet expectations.

Chu Xia huffed indifferently, glanced at Yafu with a 'good luck to you' expression, then turned on her heel and walked away.

Yafu watched their retreating figures, feeling for the first time how bleak life could be, how unreliable a good friend could be. Chu Xia... she actually just abandoned her here like this? Damn it.

Ao Chi glanced at Yafu's tightly furrowed little face and the look of anger she didn't dare voice, the thin lips she was biting twitching slightly.

He turned and stepped out of the small room, standing at the doorway and looking back at Yafu, he spat out coldly.

"Are you leaving or not?" His voice held a touch of impatience.

"Leaving, leaving, of course, I'm leaving," Yafu had an epiphany, a smile flashed across her face, her head nodding vigorously like a pecking chicken, and her legs swiftly started to move.
