Lu Xingzhi effortlessly stole the basketball from Zhou Junminâs grip and tossed it to the people in front of him. He said, âHave you heard anything about my wife recently?â
Zhou Junmin was at a loss. He said, âSomething about your wife? No?â
Lu Xingzhi remembered that Zhou Junmin had been transferred from Jin City with him, so it was normal for some rumors to avoid him.
After a while, Lu Xingzhi called his other subordinates and repeated what he had asked Zhou Junmin.
Those people also had the same expression as Zhou Junmin; they shook their heads in confusion.
âColonel, is something wrong?â Zhou Junmin was the one who knew Lu Xingzhi the best, apart from Jiang Yao. By looking at Lu Xingzhiâs expression, Zhou Junmin could guess that something terrible had happened to Jiang Yao.
Lu Xingzhiâs subordinates had not heard of the gossip. Therefore, Lu Xingzhi thought that words might not have reached the special forces team.
Everyone knew that Lu Xingzhi was the team leader and was famous for protecting his people. So, it was normal that it had not spread to his team.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Those who played basketball with Zhou Junmin were also his confidants, so Lu Xingzhi did not hide it. âWhen my wife went out today, she heard some people say that she was raped when kidnapped last time. They even said that the child in her stomach was the kidnapperâs. Go and find out who said that.â
âF*ck!
âWho was so disgusting that they dared to say such words?â Zhou Junmin was so angry that he almost pulled his shoes and slammed them on the floor to vent. âWhat could the kidnappers do to your wife? Sheâs such a capable woman!âSupport our
âThose people must have said that maliciously. They were just smearing her reputation with empty words. Mrs. Lu is furious, right? She is pregnant. Is she okay?â Another soldier asked.
âSheâs fine.â
Lu Xingzhi waved his hand.
âItâs not easy to investigate rumors, especially when itâs obvious that theyâve avoided us.â
...
Zhou Junmin was worried about that. âWho do you think has a grudge against your wife and said those words behind her back to slander her?â
âEven if itâs not easy, you have to investigate it for me!â Lu Xingzhi said.
âOf course! Iâll look into it. Other people might think they can bully us if we let this go. Donât worry, Colonel. Weâll find out who started the rumor. We wonât tolerate those bullies,â one soldier said.
After saying that, that person called out to Zhou Junmin. They did not want to play basketball anymore and immediately left.
Lu Xingzhi stood on the basketball court and fumbled in his pocket. He had wanted to smoke a cigarette, but he did not find anything.
He did not have much of a craving for cigarettes. When Jiang Yao got pregnant, he did not even touch a cigarette, so naturally, he could not find any cigarettes on him.
When Lu Xingzhi returned home, Jiang Yao was not on the bed. She sat on the sofa and played games with Moe on her phone. Each of them had a plate, and a bag of melon seeds was on the table.
Jiang Yao propped her head up and watched Moe play a game. With one hand, she was peeling melon seeds and eating them. Moe was slow, so he could not complete the game. He got so angry that he almost exploded. He scolded Jiang Yao, but she laughed loudly..
