Wife is Fierce, Don't Mess With Her!

Chapter 120: This is A Matter of Principle

Before the air turned silent, He Niancheng asked again, “Did you win the competition this time?”

Gu Qingjiu nodded. “Yes.”

He nodded gently and answered, “That’s good. Follow me to the city tomorrow. Do you know how to drive?”

Gu Qingjiu was rather confused. “No, I don’t. Why are we going to the city?”

The look in He Niancheng’s suddenly turned cold. “Since Commander Huo left, you will replace him.”

Gu Qingjiu was speechless once again.

Indeed! He had diverted his anger at Commander Huo’s departure towards her!

Yu Bao’er thought, ‘Oh no, oh no. What’s happening now?’

He Niancheng didn’t explain any further and simply left.

After he had left, Yu Bao’er looked at Gu Qingjiu and her eyes were twinkling so brightly.

“Xiao Jiu’er, what have you done behind our backs? What are you hiding from all of us?”

Gu Qingjiu almost burst out laughing. “I’m not doing anything behind your back. You’re thinking too much.”

Gu Qingjiu had also been curious about He Niancheng’s feelings, too. However, she could sense whether or not a person really liked her.

Sometimes, it was clear that He Niancheng was simply looking at her the same way he would look at a subordinate.

Perhaps a person like him wouldn’t even know what it felt like to like someone.

Oh, that was not necessarily true. After all, his relationship with Commander Huo was not an ordinary one.

That was why she felt worried she might do something wrong if she replaced Commander Huo.

Yu Bao’er wanted to probe further, but Gu Qingjiu refused to comply. After bidding Doctor Nan goodbye, she grabbed Yu Bao’er and returned to the dormitory.

When they bumped into Feng Meiyun and Jiang Yu, they didn’t greet each other at all.

It was fortunate that they had left earlier. If they were to witness how He Niancheng treated Gu Qingjiu, they definitely would be livid.

...

It was the weekend the next day.

That was why He Niancheng allowed Gu Qingjiu to go to Dayi City.

Gu Qingjiu didn’t inform anyone and went straight to He Niancheng’s office early in the morning.

The morning sky was still heavily foggy, and it was difficult to see anything.

A military jeep was parked outside his office. It was the same vehicle that Huo Yingcheng drove when he came across Gu Qingjiu multiple times before.

He Niancheng was already seated in the driver’s seat.

Gu Qingjiu hurriedly opened the car door and entered. He Niancheng said nothing and drove off.

Because of the cold weather, Gu Qingjiu donned two thick coats. Since she had lost weight, the coats were too big for her now. As she rolled her sleeves, she asked, “Chief Instructor, can I return home to take some clothes? Those that I have now no longer fit me.”

“It’s up to you. After you help me buy these items, you may return home. You can come back tomorrow.”

He Niancheng tossed a piece of paper to her.

There were many words scribbled on it. Taking a closer look, it was actually Huo Yingcheng’s shopping list.

However, not everything was for Huo Yingcheng. It was clear that he had left this duty to her.

The paper listed out where she had to purchase those items, such as where she should buy cutlery from.

It was odd that he wanted to buy cutlery. Moreover, he wanted to buy 90 sets.

There was an additional line that read ‘After Commander He uses it, donate it to the military cafeteria.’

It implied that Commander He would use all 90 sets himself.

Gu Qingjiu couldn’t comprehend what was going on. “Chief Instructor, do you really need 90 sets of cutlery?”

He Niancheng nodded. “If I use one set for each meal, it can last me for a month.”

Gu Qingjiu was speechless once again.

What was wrong with him?

Gu Qingjiu couldn’t help but say, “You can just use another set when it spoils...”

“No. I cannot use an item repeatedly. This is a matter of principle.”

Gu Qingjiu was speechless once again.
