Chapter 10: Wenrou Moves into Huo Yanchuan's House
"What? Wenrou moved into Huo Yanchuan's house? Didn't she leave already?" At this moment, Shen Qingshuang also heard the news and looked incredulous.
"I'm not mistaken, it's her. Deputy Battalion Commander Hao brought her back, and she's now living directly in Regiment Commander Huo's house." The person who came to deliver the message was Sister Chen from the family compound; her husband used to be Zhou Dayong's subordinate.
Shen Qingshuang came from Beijing and was the eldest daughter of the Shen family. Many people in the compound wanted to get along with her.
This Mrs. Chen is one of them. She was once splashed with hot water by her because she said something gentle. She still remembers this grudge to this day.
"Who is she, and what gives her the right to live in Huo Yanchuan's house?"
Shen Qingshuang didn't have a good impression of Wenrou to begin with, thinking that she was just a country girl with no knowledge of the world. Why was Huo Yanchuan so good to her and even let her live in his house?
"She probably realized that her relationship with Company Commander Zhou was doomed, so she went and tried to seduce Regiment Commander Huo instead," Sister-in-law Chen guessed.
The news of Wenrou's behavior back in her hometown had already spread throughout the family compound. People knew that before her marriage, she not only slept with other men but also seduced men everywhere.
Even if Commander Huo is impotent, he's still exceptionally attractive. This Wenrou is like a toad trying to eat swan meat, actually setting her sights on Huo Yanchuan.
Shen Qingshuang and Huo Yanchuan's families were old friends, and their elders had arranged their marriage long ago.
If Huo Yanchuan hadn't been involved in an accident during a mission, they would have been married by now.
Of course, she also knew that Huo Yanchuan's family was a hundred times more powerful in Beijing than their Shen family. If Wenrou really succeeded in seducing Huo Yanchuan, she could not accept someone like her marrying into the Huo family.
The more Shen Qingshuang thought about it, the more unbalanced she felt. Although Wenrou came from the countryside, her facial features were indeed quite good. Otherwise, why would Zhou Dayong have been interested in her before?
With this in mind, Shen Qingshuang went directly to Huo Yanchuan's house.
Even if they don't end up together, their families are old friends, and she doesn't want Huo Yanchuan to be deceived.
Huo Yanchuan was still in the army at the moment, so Hao Gang took Wenrou to Huo Yanchuan's house and then left.
Wenrou didn't expect Huo Yanchuan to act so quickly. She had only stayed at the guesthouse for two days when their marriage application was approved.
Did she just move into Huo Yanchuan's house like that?
However, thinking about the agreement she had reached with Huo Yanchuan, she felt at ease settling down here.
Hao Gang said that Huo Yanchuan rarely comes back to the military, and usually spends his nights in the barracks with his comrades.
That's good, it saves the awkwardness of two people who don't know each other very well living together.
Wenrou looked around and saw that there were three rooms in the house, including a master bedroom, which should be where Huo Yanchuan lived.
His room was clean and tidy, the quilt was folded into a perfect square, and the sheets were laid out flat without a single wrinkle.
He didn't have much stuff. There was only a wardrobe and a desk in the room, with his things on the desk: a few books, two fountain pens, and a bottle of ink.
The other secondary bedroom is a bit smaller, with only a small bed and a table, nothing else.
However, she lives alone and doesn't need such a big place.
The other room was a storage room, next to which was the kitchen. To her satisfaction, the kitchen was large, much better than Zhou Dayong's house.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Hearing the sound, Wenrou walked over and opened the door, only to see Shen Qingshuang standing at the door.
"Where is Huo Yanchuan?" Shen Qingshuang's expression changed immediately when she saw that Wenrou had indeed moved into Huo Yanchuan's house.
"He should be at the military base right now. If you need him, you can tell me, and I'll pass it on to him later," Wenrou said, not wanting to get entangled with her.
But to Shen Qingshuang's ears, her tone made her sound like the lady of the house.
"You'll tell him? Who do you think you are?" Shen Qingshuang found her words laughable and said with disdain.
When did it become Wenrou's place to interfere in her and Huo Yanchuan's affairs?
gentle:"……"
She came here looking for trouble herself; if anything happens, she can't blame herself.
"Wenrou, don't think I don't know what you're up to. Zhou Dayong dumped you, so you've set your sights on Huo Yanchuan. Do you even know who he is? You're just a country girl from the countryside, don't you even know if you're good enough for him?"
When Shen Qingshuang thought about what she had learned about Wenrou from Zhou Dayong, she immediately started cursing at Wenrou in front of her: "You shameless slut, it's one thing to seduce other men, but someone like Huo Yanchuan, do you think you can even dream of him? Who knows if you've contracted some kind of filthy disease and are polluting the air in the family compound? Get out of here right now!"
She was used to being bossy and never paid any attention to gentleness.
But she forgot that Wenrou could even beat Zhou Dayong, so beating up a woman like her would be a piece of cake for her.
Wenrou originally planned to live here quietly from now on, and let bygones be bygones regarding her affair with Zhou Dayong. For the sake of her two unborn children, she didn't want to cause any trouble.
But she didn't expect Shen Qingshuang to come to her door on her own initiative, and to hurl such nasty insults. If she could tolerate it, she wouldn't be herself.
"What did you say? Say it again?" Wenrou sneered and spoke lightly.
"I said you're a piece of trash, you give me..." Before Shen Qingshuang could finish her sentence, Wenrou grabbed her hair and pulled her inside.
"Ah... my hair, it hurts so much! Wenrou, you bitch, let me go!" Shen Qingshuang's screams echoed inside the house.
"I thought Zhou Dayong married some kind of trash, but it turns out she's just a pretty face with no substance. Your mouth is so foul, I don't mind cleaning it for you."
Gently grabbing Shen Qingshuang's hair, she raised her hand and slapped her hard across the face.
One slap wasn't enough, so she slapped him again.
"Even Zhou Dayong can't beat me, so why are you deliberately asking for trouble?" A gentle voice continued to drift from inside the house, followed by Shen Qingshuang's cries.
Shen Qingshuang was no match for gentleness at all; she was even being held by one of her hands and couldn't move at all.
Seeing that something was wrong, Sister Chen quickly went to the army base to find Zhou Dayong.
Upon hearing that Wenrou had hit Shen Qingshuang, Zhou Dayong rushed back.
When he arrived at Huo Yanchuan's door, he kicked the door open with his foot.
Seeing that Shen Qingshuang's face was swollen from the beating, her hair was a mess, and her clothes were torn, he went over with heartache and draped his own clothes over her.
Then he looked at Wenrou, his eyes so cold he wanted to kill her on the spot.
"Wenrou, what does what happened between you and me have to do with Qing Shuang? If you have a problem, come at me! How dare you hit her? Are you looking for death?"
Zhou Dayong clenched his fists. He no longer cared that Wenrou was a woman; he was about to beat her up.
Just then, a cold, sharp voice rang out from behind him, "Zhou Dayong, you want to hit my wife? Did you even ask me for permission?"
