Wife is Fierce, Don’t Mess With Her!

Chapter 189: I’ll Come Back Right Away!

When Gu Qingjiu answered Qi Yuefeng’s call in the mailroom, she heard the latter’s nonstop crying.

She felt her heart tighten.

“Mom, what’s the matter?”

She sounded anxious and in a hurry.

The others in the mailroom turned to look at her curiously.

“Qing… Qingjiu… Mom let you down. We have let you down!”

Her sorrowful and painful voice made Gu Qingjiu feel highly uneasy.

“Mom, what exactly happened? Just say it. Don’t cry first. Tell me what happened first, alright?”

She had never heard Qi Yuefeng sob so hard before.

Over the phone, her voice sounded terribly broken, like she had suffered a great agitation.

Unable to stop herself from crying, she could not speak coherently.

Without a coherent reply from Qi Yuefeng for a long time, Gu Qingjiu only heard her repeatedly apologizing.

Her brows furrowed. Knowing she could not let Qi Yuefeng cry on, she sternly asked, “Did someone from the Yu family show up?”

Perhaps because Gu Qingjiu’s voice sounded stern and that the contents of her sentence were on point, it surprised Qi Yuefeng.

In any case, her sobbing finally paused for a brief moment. “How… how did you know?”

But after that, the sobbing resumed.

“I’ll come back right away!”

With a click-clack sound, Gu Qingjiu immediately hung up the phone.

With a frigid expression, she couldn’t be bothered about anything else. She directly returned to the competition venue.

The dueling session hadn’t ended yet, and it was still in full swing. Gu Qingjiu saw Chen Haoyang standing near the arena.

Gu Qingjiu ran over and went straight to the point with him, “Instructor Chen. If I wanted to go home, which procedures are needed to be done?”

Chen Haoyang could not react for a moment. “Go home? Go back to Dayi City?”

“Mm!”

She responded, and the coldness in her eyes became more intense.

Her lips were slightly pale. Seeing that something wasn’t quite right with her, Chen Haoyang asked, “Did something important happen at home?”

“To me, it’s something important. But the military might not approve.”

Unless it was something super important, the military absolutely wouldn’t allow new recruits to go home.

Nothing of the sort had ever happened in the military before, so Gu Qingjiu wasn’t certain if they would allow her to go back.

But she must go back!

Why hadn’t it occurred to her that the Yu family would go to her adoptive parents first?

Chen Haoyang straightened his body, but he didn’t say for sure that he wouldn’t approve. He said, “Tell me about it.”

There were other people around and all of them were looking at Gu Qingjiu with keen interest; some were waiting to watch a good show, while others merely stared out of curiosity.

Gu Qingjiu asked Chen Haoyang to step aside. Although she found it hard to tell him this, she had no other choice.

She only told him she wasn’t her adoptive parents’ biological daughter and that her biological parents showed up at her home now. Her home was now in a mess, and she had to go back and handle the matter.

Chen Haoyang had never encountered something of that sort either.

The military officer who set the rules back then might not have expected something like it, either.

This came so suddenly, so he was a little lost. After thinking for three seconds, he said, “Wait. I’ll talk to the Chief Instructor.”

Chen Haoyang didn’t stop her, but instead he helped her. This made Gu Qingjiu feel very grateful.

“Thanks, Instructor Chen.”

“Don’t thank me. I’m just helping you tell the Chief Instructor. I can’t make the decision. The Chief Instructor might not consent. How about this? You come along with me.”

Gu Qingjiu nodded and followed Chen Haoyang.
