Oh no! The leader's young wife is demanding a divorce every night!
Chapter 23 He Yingying fainted from hunger.
Lu Yanzheng called for a long time without getting a response, so he had no choice but to forcefully break the door open.
The heavy door panel cracked open in no time under the impact of his burly body.
He Yingying lay limp and lifeless on the ground like a broken rag doll, having already fainted.
"Yingying, Yingying! What's wrong?"
Lu Yanzheng rushed over anxiously and picked He Yingying up in his arms.
Xiao Re walked over calmly and composedly, and after only glancing at He Yingying's pale and weak face, he made his judgment.
"It's nothing serious. She's probably just hungry. Just give her some sugar water."
"How could she be hungry? She fainted. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."
Lu Yanzheng didn't believe Xiao Re and anxiously carried He Yingying to the military medical room.
Xiao Re remained alone in the room, her heart filled with bitterness and a hint of disdain, coldly turning her head away.
"Yes! I don't understand! Your Yingying is the most precious!"
She locked herself in her room with a bang and went to sleep quietly.
Upon arriving at the medical room, the military doctor carefully examined He Yingying using various instruments.
The final diagnosis was the same as Xiao Re's.
"I fainted from hunger!"
"Give her some sugar water first, then supplement her nutrition, and she'll be fine."
Lu Yanzheng felt as if his heart was blocked by a stone, feeling both suffocated and heavy.
Surprisingly, that woman actually knew a bit about medicine.
What's even more heartwarming is that He Yingying is such a grown woman, how could she faint from hunger?
Can't you make something to eat yourself?
Lu Yanzheng was startled when he remembered the basket of wild vegetables that He Yingying had thrown away, and felt a pang of unease.
Xiao Re, that woman, bought so much food, but refused to share any with Yingying. She's really heartless.
Thinking of this, his once fervent heart suddenly turned cold.
After He Yingying woke up, Lu Yanzheng took her home and personally cooked porridge and soup for her, taking meticulous care of her.
He then stuffed the only twenty yuan he had left in his pocket into her hand.
"Are you stupid? If you don't have any vegetables, why don't you just borrow some from next door and pay them back later?"
"Here's twenty yuan. Buy whatever you want to eat. I'll give it to you when I get my salary next month."
He Yingying felt a warmth in her heart. Hearing Lu Yanzheng's words, she was moved to tears, feeling that all the hardship and fatigue were worthwhile.
"From now on, Zheng-ge, give me all your salary."
"Okay! Here you go!"
Lu Yanzheng thought that Xiao Re already had 60,000 to 70,000 yuan in his hands, which he could never spend in his lifetime.
Let's just give the salary to He Yingying; we can't let her starve to death.
But when these words reached Xiao Re's ears through the wall without a door, they had a completely different meaning.
Xiao Re's heart sank suddenly, and a huge chill spread from his eardrums all the way to the bottom of his heart, both cold and sour.
It broke my heart.
Sure enough, men are all the same. They're always eyeing what's in the pot while eating what's in the bowl.
Xiao Re pulled the blanket over herself, biting her lip hard, and a sour smell rose up.
Since you, Lu Yanzheng, love He Yingying so much, then love her well.
After feeding him the porridge, Lu Yanzheng looked through the cracked wooden door at the room opposite.
He asked He Yingying with some hesitation.
Did she give you anything to eat?
He Yingying shook her head. "No. I wanted to get some milk, but she wouldn't let me."
She said those things were all hers and I wasn't allowed to touch them.
"They even registered everything and hung it on the wall, like they were guarding against a thief."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yanzheng instantly turned cold, his face becoming terrifyingly gloomy, and his entire body radiating an uncontrollable aura of violence.
He could no longer contain himself, and angrily rushed to the opposite side, kicked open Xiao Re's door, and shouted at her.
"Xiao Re, are you even human? Do you have any conscience at all?"
How could you be so heartless?
"Are you only satisfied when Yingying has starved to death?"
"I thought you were just a little bad. I never expected you to be so cold-blooded, ruthless, and heartless."
"I was so blind to have chosen you!"
These words were harsh, like a heavy hammer striking Xiao Re's heart, making even breathing painful.
Xiao Re suddenly looked up, his cold face covered with a layer of frost, his tone indifferent and aloof.
"What does He Yingying starving to death have to do with me? She's my enemy, not my wife. Why should I care about her?"
"Didn't we agree that we would each manage our own food and clothing, and each keep our own accounts?"
"If you love her, then just take good care of her. Why are you taking it out on me?"
Lu Yanzheng's face turned ashen, his chest heaving violently. His icy words were practically spat out through clenched teeth.
"Okay! I'll take good care of her. Please take care of yourself too, and don't cause me any more trouble."
Xiao Re laughed after hearing this, a cold and bitter laugh, his eyes devoid of any warmth.
"Commander Lu, I've already written the divorce papers. Please pay off your debts as soon as possible; I've already lost the will to marry you."
"Don't keep me from finding my next one."
That woman is truly despicable. She ruined him, emptied his pockets, and now she's looking for the next one.
Lu Yanzheng was so angry that the veins on his forehead throbbed, his eyes turned bloodshot, and he almost forced out a low growl through clenched teeth:
"You dare!"
"Heh!" Xiao Re didn't say anything, just raised his eyebrows and sneered, not even bothering to give him a second glance.
The more indifferent and calm Xiao Re remained, the more exasperated Lu Yanzheng became. He clenched his fists until his knuckles turned white, his chest pounding wildly, almost driven mad by Xiao's nonchalant attitude.
"Xiao Re, what exactly do you want?"
"On your first day in the army, you made Yingying sick!"
"You completely fooled her the next day!"
"You starved her for three days!"
"How far do you intend to torture her before you're satisfied?"
"I know you have hatred, resentment, and revenge; you can take it out on me. I'll suffer for her!"
Xiao Re suddenly raised his eyes, a cold glint flashing in them, his voice both cold and sharp.
"Lu Yanzheng, you're ridiculous! You're putting all the blame on me. Aren't you at fault too?"
"If you weren't a womanizer, would you have gotten involved with me?"
"If He Yingying hadn't burned down my family's clinic and caused my father to lose a finger, would I be causing you trouble?"
"In your eyes, everyone in the world is a good person. He Yingying is kind, and the women in the military camp are understanding. Only I am wicked and vicious."
"Since you know I'm a bad woman, why are you trying to reason with me?"
"Do you want my sympathy, or my love?"
Xiao Re's words were like daggers, each one piercing Lu Yanzheng's most painful spot, leaving him speechless, his face turning pale and then red, and he had no confidence left to argue.
The argument was fierce and hurtful, tearing apart any remaining semblance of friendship. Even eye contact was painful.
Xiao Re lay quietly on the bed, silent, tearless, and without sorrow. She was like a lone warrior, carrying a full suit of spiked armor, fighting against the whole world.
He had no friends, no lover, and no support. All he had was his own stubborn courage and determination to avenge his father.
