Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife Chapter 1655 - 1656: Like a Gossipy Woman

The plan kept changing, cutting short the ti to return to my hotown, which only made Cheng Su busier. Business, various summary etings and annual etings needed to be held, and the new ho had to be slowly arranged and tidied up, never stopping.

While Cheng Su was busy with household chores and business, Qi Taiguo was busy with military duties. During this period, they hardly had any chance to et.

Sotis Qi Taiguo would be on duty at the army, either going out early and returning late at night, at which ti Cheng Su was either asleep or just waking up, so they saw each other less during these tis.

Qi Taiguo was busy not without reason. The newly appointed Regintal Commander Shen, for so unknown reason either favored him or so other reason, unexpectedly entrusted many tasks to him, and others saw him as greatly valued.

The most jealous, of course, was Dong Jun.

Watching Qi Taiguo co out of Regintal Commander Shen’s office with a stack of docunts, Dong Jun was envious. His father-in-law had stepped down, and now Regintal Commander Mai had retired too. His position hadn’t moved for years, feeling stuck, wanting to latch onto Regintal Commander Shen.

But Shen didn’t seem to accept his advances. Instead, he gave Qi Taiguo significant authority, valuing him to the extent of possibly surpassing the battalion commander above him.

How could Dong Jun’s heart be thrilled with this disparity?

Upon seeing Qi Taiguo, he couldn’t help but mock, saying, "Deputy Battalion Commander Qi’s thods are quite remarkable, gaining Regintal Commander Shen’s favor so quickly."

Qi Taiguo glanced over at him, returning the sarcasm: "Deputy Battalion Commander Dong’s expression reminds of the ancient palace’s concubines, the vivid image of soone resentful about not being favored by the emperor!"

Dong Jun’s face darkened, pursing his lips, then coldly retorted, "Don’t be complacent. When it cos to the incident involving Gao Linbing, who knows if there’s sothing unclear about you? You two are such good friends; could it be you knew his identity long ago and didn’t report it?"

Gao Linbing was Qi Taiguo’s Achilles’ heel. Dong Jun ntioning him instantly heightened Qi Taiguo’s montum, coldly, like a small gust of wind, brushing past Dong Jun, making him shiver uncontrollably.

"Deputy Battalion Commander Dong, have you obtained any evidence, ready to report ? Go ahead! This is all you can do, no wonder you’ve been a deputy battalion commander for years." Qi Taiguo sneered, "With your foundation, you might just die in this position."

"You..."

Qi Taiguo knew Dong Jun well. Other than a belly full of jealousy, he didn’t have other abilities. Oh, his skill at flattery must be considerable too.

Unwilling to waste words with him, having too much on his plate, he said, "Deputy Battalion Commander Dong, instead of wasting ti here gossiping like a woman, stirring up trouble, why not seize more tasks to earn military rits, which might bring promotion opportunities!"

After speaking, he ignored Dong Jun’s face, black as coal, and walked away straight.

Returning to his office, Qi Taiguo sat down in his chair, rubbing his temples, thinking about Dong Jun’s words. He couldn’t help but sneer. Not reporting what he knew? If he had such ability, why endure that pain?

Thinking about Gao Linbing naturally led him to think of his wife and children. Wondering how they were now? Have they finished the investigation?

Qi Taiguo sighed, opened the file, ready to handle official duties.

Ring, ring, ring.

The piercing sound of the phone rang. He picked it up, imdiately sat up straight, and said, "Hello, Chief!"

"I heard from Old Four that you want to move your position?" Ning Gang’s voice ca from the other side of the phone line.
