Chapter 879: No Need to Pretend to Be Kind

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The military wives’ understanding of Gu Zi came largely from distant observations and some rumors. They were not very familiar with her personally, but they could clearly distinguish that she was one of their own. If anyone dared to bully her, they would certainly stand up for her and seek justice.

Xiao Ye shared this sentiment. His hand rested on the pistol at his waist as he ominously declared, “Rest assured, ladies, I will not let her in again. If she continues to make a fuss, I will not hesitate to let her taste a bullet, treating it as a crime of disrespecting military families. Perhaps, I might even receive a commendation from the higher-ups.”

Zhang Mei was so frightened that her legs gave way. She had just managed to get up when she fell back to the ground, dumbfounded. Wasn’t Su Shen a retired soldier? How could he still be a regimental commander, and so well-loved at that? Gu Zi was not respected simply because of Gong Zhan, Su Shen’s status was so significant. What was she to do now?

She cursed Gu Zi under her breath. It was all Gu Zi’s fault for not explaining Su Shen’s status in advance. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have made such a fool of herself. This ungrateful adopted daughter, she had wasted eighteen years raising her. When she saw Gu Zi, she would have to interrogate her thoroughly. For now, she needed to find a way to get in.

Slowly, she got up, her face devoid of the arrogance it had held earlier. She pleaded with the guard, “Please, let me in. I only said those unpleasant things earlier because of a misunderstanding. Actually, I am not only Gong Zhan’s mother-in-law, but also your commander Su’s mother-in-law. Gu Zi is my adopted daughter. If you don’t believe me, you can ask her when she returns.”

Xiao Ye pursed his lips, unable to believe what he had just heard. He scornfully retorted, “After the disgraceful words you just uttered, even if you are Madam Gu Zi’s adoptive mother, you must not treat Madam Gu Zi well. No wonder you don’t even know the real identity of Commander Su. Go away; don’t bother saying another word!”
