Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 1418

Chapter 1418: Chapter 1419: Old Chen on the List

Upon hearing Chen Shouwang’s words, the basket in Hualing’s hand slipped from her grasp, causing the round potatoes to roll out. She dumbly stared at Chen Shouwang and said, "You’re on the replacement list?"

She wasn’t new to being a military spouse and knew what that signified. This meant that Chen Shouwang was going to be retired and transferred back to civilian life.

Hualing felt a bit panicked. She thought the same as Chen Shouwang: what can he do after retiring? He has no skills. What will he do when he transitions back to civilian life?

His family back home was all looking up to him. She and his child were not yet even one year old, and everything depended on his paycheck for survival. If he retired, with no allowances or other subsidies, what would they eat?

"Is it finalized?" Hualing pressed her hand against her chest and asked.

"It hasn’t been announced yet, but I’m on the list!" Chen Shouwang replied, feeling dejected.

Seeing him like this made Hualing feel a surge of anger. He’s not even forty and he’s being forced to retire. Why? Isn’t it because of his own blemishes?

A person without achievements, of course, people don’t want him occupying a vice platoon leader’s position. Since he hasn’t been contributing and he’s reached this age, they might as well free up the position for someone else’s opportunity!

"Do you feel relieved now?" Thinking of those past matters, Hualing couldn’t help but sneer.

"What?" Chen Shouwang raised his head.

"Chen Shouwang, if back then you could have controlled yourself, would you be facing retirement today? It’s all your own doing, your own fault. Look at yourself, is your heart at ease? Do you regret it?" Hualing said coldly, "Without that incident, you’d have been promoted to a company commander, and there wouldn’t be this mess."

Her heart was indeed ice cold. They were barely making it with the allowance, and now even that was gone. Would she have to rely on her measly salary alone in the future?
