Chapter 67 Ambitious and Outstanding in the Army (2/2)

"Honey, are you alright?"

He turned on the light and was relieved to see that Lin Han was unharmed.

"Huo Qizheng, did you hear the woman scream?"

Huo Qizheng nodded, "Don't be afraid, I'll stay and keep you company."

Lin Han glanced at him and said, "You have ulterior motives."

The two fell asleep in each other's arms, but not long after, another scream was heard, this time accompanied by Yao Meina's cursing.

"You little slut, climbing over my wall in the middle of the night, trying to steal my man, didn't you?"

Wang Xiuxiu was chased around by Yao Meina, yelling and screaming, "No, no, I don't know why I'm here."

Yao Meina would be a fool to believe her.

This wasn't the first time Wang Xiuxiu had climbed over her wall; she even claimed she didn't know why she was there.

That's ridiculous.

"You don't know? Did I have to run to your house, carry you out of bed, and put you in my yard?"

Wang Xiuxiu said shamelessly, "That's possible too."

Yao Meina rolled her eyes. "You're really shameless."

Lin Han was completely awakened by the noise.

"Honey, they're so annoying."

She wrapped her arms around Huo Qizheng's neck, hanging all her weight on him.

Huo Qizheng was already used to her calling him "husband," since that was how she was addressed in the books she read.

"Baby, don't pay attention to them, let your husband hold you while you sleep."

Lin Han nodded sleepily, "Okay."

She had barely finished speaking when she heard someone knocking on the door.

"Sister Lin, Commander Huo, get up and judge this! They've even come to my house to steal a man!"

You should also be careful; Wang Xiuxiu lives between our two houses. If she can climb over my wall today, she can climb over yours tomorrow.

Huo Qizheng and Lin Han were called out.

He draped his coat over Lin Han to make sure she wouldn't catch a cold before leading her outside.

"Sister-in-law Qi, what are you doing in the middle of the night? How am I supposed to get some sleep?"

Huo Qizheng shielded Lin Han behind him, while he stood in front of Yao Meina.

Yao Meina thought it was Lin Han who came out, but she didn't expect that she was blocked by a wall of flesh and couldn't even see Lin Han's face.

"Commander Huo, I really had no choice. Please be my witnesses. Wang Shufen's sister sneaked into my house in the middle of the night and falsely accused me of carrying her from my house."

Isn't that ridiculous?

If this matter has nothing to do with your family, then I won't disturb your rest.

But Wang Xiuxiu lives right between our two houses; she might show up in your yard tomorrow.

Huo Qizheng said coldly, "Sister-in-law Qi, let's talk about it tomorrow during the day. My wife needs to rest."

After saying that, he was about to close the door, not giving Yao Meina a chance to continue harassing him.

At this moment, Wang Xiuxiu, standing at the door of Yao Meina's house, saw Huo Qizheng behind half of the door, and her eyes shone brightly.

She had never seen such a handsome man before, so young and already a regimental commander just like her brother-in-law, who was in his early forties.

Wang Xiuxiu walked towards Huo Qizheng as if possessed.

"You must be Commander Huo? I've heard of you and admire you greatly. You are a hero of the people."

Hearing the familiar tea talk, Lin Han pulled Huo Qizheng behind her.
