Military court!!!

No one expected that Commander Zhu's anger would escalate to such an extent.

Actually, this kind of thing has happened before. Some girls, because of their class background or family conditions, wanted to marry promising military officers. They deliberately seduced them, used rumors to coerce them, or took advantage of the current special situation to use some tricks to marry the men they liked.

Some succeeded, and some failed, at most losing face, but this is the first time I've seen it taken to court.

However, the position of the army commander is special after all. If he is treated lightly this time, or if this commander really has a brain fart and takes a fancy to the woman’s youth and beauty and marries her, then the atmosphere in the family compound will be in chaos.

After realizing this, Director Cui of the residential compound's neighborhood committee immediately calmed down and even agreed with Commander Zhu's approach.

This precedent must not be set, otherwise how will this family compound be managed in the future? It may lead to a series of family conflicts or even fundamental mistakes.

After all, their military region only has one relatively young and strong army commander who holds a high position. The remaining chiefs of staff, division commanders, and division political commissars all have families. Even more than half of the regimental commanders are already married. If those girls with impure thoughts can't find single men, they'll naturally set their sights on these officers.

After all, there are precedents for that, and who wouldn't want to find someone with better conditions?

Director Cui figured it out, but the three members of Old Wu's family couldn't understand it either, and were even terrified.

"Commander, I..."

"Shut up, is this the daughter you raised? You dare to set your sights on me? Who gave you the guts?" Zhu Kaixuan roared angrily, not wanting to listen to Wu Dayong's nonsense at all.

Anyone who tries to undermine his wife's position is a bad element and must be suppressed!

Even though his wife is no longer with him, she is still Zhu Kaixuan's personal wife, and must be his only wife.

Zhu Kaixuan grew angrier and angrier, so angry that he stood with his hands on his hips, spinning around in place, and pointed at Wu Dayong, launching into another tirade: "My daughter is seventeen this year, and I finally managed to coax her to come and join the army, and this is the mess your family has made of me. And who gave your daughter the wrong idea that I would marry her? She even wants to be my daughter's stepmother, does she deserve it?"

How dare you smear me in front of my daughter? What, is my innocence worthless?

She even blamed my daughter for hitting her, but why didn't she kill her? Who does she think she is, going to swagger around in front of my daughter and even wanting to come inside my Zhu family's house? What, is my family's threshold so low that any shameless person can walk in?

A young woman, running up to a complete stranger, starts clamoring to marry him and become his child's stepmother. Is this how your family raises its younger generation? Wu Dayong, I seriously doubt your family's values ​​and character. Do you even deserve to be a regimental commander?

"Commander, I..."

Wu Dayong looked like he had just been pulled out of the water, his uniform soaked with cold sweat, and his face flushed red, not only from fright but also from shame and embarrassment. He felt like slapping his beloved eldest daughter to death.

When she was at home, she spoke so sweetly, even saying with absolute certainty that Commander Zhu liked her. Like my ass! That's what you call liking someone? He probably doesn't even know her.

However, before Wu Dayong could finish speaking, Wu Shuixin, who had already broken down emotionally and completely lost her mind, screamed like a madwoman.

"You're lying! How dare you treat me like this? You clearly have feelings for me. Is that little bitch deliberately trying to sow discord between you and me?"

Zhu Kaixuan took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and pointed at the crazy woman. If he hadn't remembered his identity and his military uniform, he would have really drawn his gun. Although he couldn't resolve the issue with violence, he didn't let her off the hook with his mouth.

"You're talking nonsense. I didn't even know who you were before today. I don't care about you at all. My heart is only for my wife and daughter. I don't have the ability to hold shit and pee, let alone that function."

"Impossible, impossible! You clearly have me in your heart, you definitely want to marry me!" Wu Shuixin looked at Zhu Kaixuan in despair.

Needless to say, given Wu Shuixin's certain and assertive tone and demeanor, even the military dependents who were watching the commotion nearby couldn't help but wonder if the commander was only denying the matter now because his daughter disagreed with finding a stepmother, and that he had actually been in private contact with Wu's eldest daughter for some time and might even have been planning to discuss marriage.

Otherwise... how could the eldest daughter of the Wu family go so crazy? Isn't it because she was betrayed and abandoned by a man?

What happened next stunned everyone once again.

They never knew... that not everyone's brain is the same.

"Impossible, this is impossible. If you didn't care about me, why did you suddenly stop and take me to the military hospital when I sprained my ankle on the way back last time? Not only that, you even paid my medical bills."

"If you didn't care about me, why did you help me when I came back carrying a big bag of things? You even smiled at me several times. You clearly have a crush on me."

Zhu Kaixuan was stunned after hearing these words!

When the hell did this happen??

"Yo-ho~"

A teasing, slightly wavy voice suddenly emerged from the wall behind Zhu Kaixuan.

Upon hearing this sound, Zhu Kaixuan felt a chill run down his spine. He turned around and saw a small head peeking out from the wall, its face full of a playful smile, making his temples throb.

"What are you making all this noise for, you brat? What are you doing climbing that two-meter-high wall? You'll fall and hurt yourself."

Just as Zhu Kaixuan finished speaking with a mix of worry and frustration, a large hand suddenly reached out from beside the little girl clinging to the wall.

Then Fang Meng's voice rang out: "Uncle, don't worry, Niu Niu was sitting on my shoulders watching the fun. She didn't climb the wall. I was holding her on my shoulders, so she won't fall."

As soon as Fang Meng uttered those words, Director Cui, who was originally filled with complicated emotions, and Wu Dayong, who was filled with regret and even unease, both momentarily forgot their current situation. At the same time, one sentence flashed through their minds.

That voice... doesn't it sound familiar?

Zhu Kaixuan was even more speechless, and in the end, he could only express his opinion in one sentence.

"Just keep spoiling her!"

The longer Zhu Kaixuan spent with the two children, the more he felt a sense of unease.

How come Fang Meng treats his daughter as both her boyfriend and father? It makes his role as her real father seem a bit fake.

"Don't worry about us for now. If you don't explain, your scandalous affair with Commander Zhu will be all over the Kyoto Military Region by tomorrow. The compound will probably know about it in less than two days."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Kaixuan instinctively shuddered, quickly turned to look at Wu Shuixin, pointed at her, and began to shout angrily.
