Chapter 487: Busybody
“Do you know how important the training program is for these soldiers? Their lives depend on the knowledge they gain, why did Lu Xingzhi put you in charge instead?”
Jiang Yao was even more startled. This was what Chen Feitang wanted to talk about?
“Chen Feitang, people have been saying that you’ve always had feelings for Lu Xingzhi. I think it’s funny how little you actually know him, and yet you say you like him? Isn’t it ironic?” She turned her back against Chen Feitang and started walking away.
There was no need to explain. In Chen Feitang’s mind, Lu Xingzhi was a soldier without any regard for his comrade’s life. Why did Jiang Yao have to put effort into talking with her?
“Jiang Yao!” At a loss for words, Chen Feitang called out, “I like Lu Xingzhi! What can you do? I’m not giving up! I will never give up!”
“So? Lu Xingzhi is my husband, his name is printed next to mine on our marriage affidavit!” Jiang Yao raised her eyebrows. “I can’t expect other women not to like Lu Xingzhi, but I am happy to know that he only has eyes for me. As for you, I don’t even care how you feel.”
Jiang Yao tried to wiggle her hand free from Chen Feitang’s grasp. Unfortunately, no matter how much she struggled, Chen Feitang’s tight grip was not easy to get free from.
“Leave her alone, Chen Feitang.”
Lu Xingzhi’s deep voice boomed suddenly, anyone with an inkling of his personality would know that he was infuriated.
“Chen Feitang, what’s all this meddling about? Trying to disturb the peace and quiet of the Jin City platoon?” Lu Xingzhi walked over and pinched Chen Feitang’s hand until she let go of Jiang Yao in pain. “If you’re not happy with my actions, feel free to report me to the higher-ups.”
He grabbed Jiang Yao’s hand and entered the house along with her. “You silly girl. It’s so cold out here, why aren’t you indoors? Even a three-year-old knows not to talk to strangers, what about you?”
Strangers. Hearing it from the man of her dreams, Chen Feitang’s face turned as white as a sheet of paper.
Jiang Yao gave Lu Xingzhi a hard stare before motioning for him to continue his discussion with the elders, while she sat on the couch talking to Chen Xuyao.
Chen Feitang did not enter the Liang family’s house. She left a short while later, to Jiang Yao’s satisfaction.
The next morning, Jindo City was tossed into turmoil by a notice published in all major newspapers.
The Zhou family was not Jindo City’s elites, but a published declaration of severance, particularly of a father and son pair, still had everyone’s attention on the Zhou family.
The fact that Zhou Weiqi was an illegitimate son was also well-known. People that knew the Zhou family personally actually gave them a call to get more information. However, the consensus was that Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Changkang were very capable in being able to kick Zhou Weiqi the illegitimate son out, making him ineligible to inherit any of the Zhou family’s wealth.
