Li Fengxian believed that the Deputy Director would never dare to treat her this way.

Because she was related to Li Fenghua, and Li Fenghua was the Director, while he was merely the Deputy Director.

It must be that yesterday’s incident had blown up, and Si Nian had complained to the Deputy Director. Taking advantage of her aunt’s absence, the Deputy Director was now targeting her.

Si Nian looked at her coolly: “The Deputy Director handed the documents right to you, and you refused them. How can you blame me for that? Even if your brain has problems, surely your eyes work fine?”

Li Fengxian was so angry her face twisted: “Then, then he still shouldn’t have taken them away! He definitely just didn’t want to give them to me.”

Hearing this twisted logic, Si Nian almost laughed.

“He offered them to you, you refused, and now it’s become him not wanting to give them to you.” Si Nian wore an expression of admiration: “If we all hadn’t seen it with our own eyes, we really would have thought the Deputy Director was targeting you.”

“If you really think the Deputy Director is targeting you, then go tell him. Why are you telling me? It’s not like I’m the one withholding them from you.”

Si Nian originally didn’t want to have much contact with these people, but that didn’t mean she was easy to bully.

While she could understand that the other person might have feelings about the position being transferred to her, that was understandable.

However, being in the workplace, one should be mentally prepared for fierce competition.

Not resent others just because a position was reassigned.

Resentment wouldn’t make her stronger.

Nor would the position return to her.

Si Nian also didn’t think she had done anything wrong by her. It wasn’t as if she had snatched the position away.

So why should she put up with being bullied by her now?

Anyway, she had already offended Li Fenghua, so she didn’t mind offending one more.

Si Nian couldn’t be bothered to engage with her further. After speaking, she continued eating her meal, feeding the child bite by bite as she ate.

Seeing that Si Nian was ignoring her and no one around was speaking up for her either,

Li Fengxian felt like a complete clown, so furious she nearly screamed.

She had been here for so long, yet not a single person spoke up for her. Did these people have no conscience at all?

The more Li Fengxian thought about it, the angrier she became, and she ended up crying tears of rage. She turned and ran out.

The Deputy Director, hearing the commotion and walking over, had initially been worried that Si Nian was being bullied again.

To his surprise, the one reduced to angry tears was actually Li Fengxian.

He was somewhat astonished.

In the past, anyone who crossed Li Fengxian would be targeted by Li Fenghua.

No one dared to cause trouble for Li Fengxian, only secretly wiping their tears behind her back.

This time, the tables had turned, and it was finally Li Fengxian’s turn.

Not only the Deputy Director, but everyone else was also staring dumbfounded.

…

Meanwhile, over at Zhou Yueshen’s side, he had already arrived at the train station.

No sooner had he boarded the train than another military off-road vehicle pulled up.

Fu Yang, dressed in his military uniform, stood with his orderly.

They attracted the attention of passersby the moment they got out of the car.

“Has she not arrived yet?” Fu Yang, long accustomed to such gazes, frowned slightly as he asked.

The orderly replied, “She must have been delayed. Let’s wait a little longer.”

“No need, let’s go ahead.” Fu Yang said tersely.

The orderly hesitated, “Uh…”

This time, Regimental Commander Fu had been invited to the Northwest Military District as an instructor for military training.

As the youngest regimental commander in their district and the son of a high-ranking officer, Fu Yang was highly regarded.

That’s why he received the invitation.

Originally, he was traveling alone, but after Mrs. Zheng learned about it, she proactively invited Regimental Commander Yang Yujie to accompany him.

It so happened that Regimental Commander Yang was also returning.

Their tickets were bought for the same day, yet Regimental Commander Fu seemed unwilling to travel with Regimental Commander Yang.

He wasn’t even willing to wait a few minutes for her.

It seemed Mrs. Zheng’s wish was going to be dashed.

The orderly couldn’t help but glance at the dark circles under his commander’s eyes.

He sighed inwardly.

Regimental ​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‍Commander Fu’s skills were among the best in their district.

Who knew what had happened, but he actually had a bruise on his face.

His expression was still thunderous.

Though curious, the orderly didn’t dare ask.

Fu Yang ignored him and strode towards the train.

The orderly, setting aside his curiosity, hurriedly picked up the luggage and followed.

The train was extremely crowded, the aisles packed with standing passengers.

Although military personnel had priority policies, the two still struggled to squeeze through.

Despite his privileged background, Fu Yang had often taken trains and was accustomed to such scenes.

The orderly had bought seated tickets. As soon as they found their seats, he eagerly said to Fu Yang, “Commander, please sit.”

Fu Yang said nothing and sat down. But as soon as his gaze shifted to the opposite seat, his face darkened.

“It’s you!”

Zhou Yueshen lifted his eyes and glanced at him.

His expression was indifferent.

He didn’t seem particularly surprised by Fu Yang’s appearance.

He just impassively pulled out a large flatbread Si Nian had made for him from his pocket and placed it on the small table.

The flatbread, stored in his luggage, was still warm.

As soon as he took it out, its aroma wafted through the air.

Immediately attracting the attention of fellow passengers.

“What’s that? It smells so good.”

People just glanced over, only to be intimidated by the scene of the two men facing each other.

It was just two men sitting opposite each other, yet the air above them seemed thick with dark clouds.

As if it might explode any second.

This suffocating atmosphere made even those wanting to squeeze closer for a seat quickly keep their distance.

Seeing the other man ignore him, Fu Yang’s face grew even uglier.

This was a train bound for the Northwest.

The journey would take two days and one night.

Just the thought of having to face this man for the next two days made Fu Yang’s expression indescribably grim.

The orderly was still surprised, “Commander, you know each other?”

He looked curiously at Zhou Yueshen, noticing the man had an imposing presence. Sitting opposite the commander, he wasn’t the least bit overshadowed. In fact, compared to the commander’s dark scowl, he seemed much calmer.

His gaze then shifted to the duffel bag under the table.

Slightly surprised.

It was the same type of duffel bag as the commander’s.

The kind issued to military personnel.

Could this man also be a soldier?

The orderly was very curious, but he didn’t dare ask.

Because his commander’s expression looked like he wanted to eat someone alive.

What was going on? Could they be enemies?

But judging by the other man’s attitude, it didn’t seem like it.

After a deathly silence, the orderly couldn’t stand it anymore.

Standing up, sweating profusely, he said, “I, I’m going to the restroom.”

As soon as he left, the atmosphere grew even more oppressive.

People crowded in the aisle unconsciously moved even further away from the two men.

What in the world? It’s spring, why is it so cold?

As soon as the orderly was gone, Fu Yang sneered, “What’s the matter? Pig farming not going well, so you have to go work far from home?”

Zhou Yueshen finally lifted his eyelids and spoke, “Yes, after all, I have a beloved wife at home to support.”

Fu Yang: “…”

He gave a cold laugh, “Then she’s pitiful. After chasing me for so many years, she ended up like this.”

Zhou Yueshen nodded in agreement, his voice deep, “Indeed. She chased you for so many years but chose me. That proves I’m better than you.”

Fu Yang: “….”

The orderly lingered in the restroom for a while, only returning when someone knocked on the door.

He found the atmosphere between the two men even more tense and hostile.

It seemed a fight could break out any second.

As the orderly, it was his duty to prevent such a scene.

His eyes fell on the flatbread on the table, and he immediately found a topic, hurriedly trying to ease the tension, “Comrade, you brought so much flatbread. It smells wonderful. We were in such a hurry we didn’t have time to bring any food, hehe~”

Zhou Yueshen withdrew his gaze, his eyes softening as he said, “Yes, my wife made it for me early this morning.”
