Qi Taiguo returned and saw the corridor filled with people, feeling sowhat puzzled. Before he could ask what had happened, Hualing brushed past him and left.
Chen Shouwang also chased after her.
Qi Taiguo looked bewildered. What happened?
He glanced at Cheng Su, who just waved at him, indicating to discuss it at ho.
"What happened?" Qi Taiguo asked while taking off his military uniform.
Cheng Su shook her head, saying, "Not sure, but it must be sothing big." Otherwise, Hualing wouldn’t have picked up her bag and decided to leave ho.
"Didn’t they reconcile?" Qi Taiguo frowned.
"Who knows what kind of stunt Chen Shouwang is pulling?" Cheng Su sneered.
"Him?" Qi Taiguo was a bit surprised. Chen Shouwang was usually calm, while Hualing was sowhat arrogant. It can’t be him, right?
Cheng Su nodded.
She just witnessed it clearly: Hualing wanted to leave, and Chen Shouwang was softly pleading with her not to go, even ntioning their child.
Hualing has a child?
But Hualing’s attitude showed no courtesy towards Chen Shouwang, even ntioning not to force her to find a leader.
What could have happened that made her want to seek a leader? It must be a big deal!
Otherwise, would Hualing use such words for a threat?
Qi Taiguo listened to Cheng Su’s analysis and furrowed his brows too. This is indeed quite unusual.
A flash of realization crossed Cheng Su’s mind and her expression suddenly changed.
"What’s wrong?" Qi Taiguo noticed her reaction and knew she thought of sothing.
Cheng Su indeed thought of sothing: that scene at the station before.
"Last month, on Guiying’s son Cancan’s full month day, I was buying fruit near the bus station and saw Chen Shouwang with a woman, the two of them tussling onto the bus." Cheng Su recounted that scene, full of suspicion, saying, "Do you think Chen Shouwang might have ssed around outside and Hualing found out?"
Qi Taiguo’s expression changed: "Things like that, don’t speak without evidence. He’s a soldier; doesn’t he know military discipline?"
If a soldier is unfaithful during marriage, it’s a violation of national laws and military discipline, against social ethics—it’s a very serious cri requiring punishnt.
Especially since Chen Shouwang is already a platoon leader, the lightest consequence is unavoidable punishnt, and at worst dismissal; specifics depend on the impact. Anyway, if this gets publicized, his future is surely ruined.
Unless Chen Shouwang had a lapse in judgnt, why would he do that?
"Then what do you think could have caused such an outburst from Hualing? For a woman, aside from her husband there’s only her child, that’s her bottom line," Cheng Su stated.
Qi Taiguo fell silent, finally saying, "Maybe it’s sothing else?" though he himself felt it was a bit far-fetched.
Cheng Su shook her head and said, "I really can’t fathom what could possibly provoke her to leave without considering the child."
Qi Taiguo remained silent.
Cheng Su’s mood was also heavy; if it’s like this, how heartbroken Hualing must be?
"In any case, don’t spread things without evidence; otherwise, it might influence public opinion negatively," Qi Taiguo instructed Cheng Su.
Cheng Su nodded and said, "I’m not foolish, of course I know."
No matter what the truth is, even if Chen Shouwang really is cheating, it can’t be publicized, otherwise the impact would be unimaginable.
Yet Cheng Su recalled that scene she saw, and there’s a strong feeling internally, that Chen Shouwang surely has sothing to hide.
If Hualing coincidentally has a child now, what will be their outco?
There’s no denying, Cheng Su is indeed on the right track this ti.
