"Stop! Stop fighting!"
Commissar Zhuang's voice came from the doorway.
Lin Zhilan shook off Song Fang and pulled Wang Rou out as well.
Song Fang and Cai Laifeng wanted to fight back, but were stopped by the soldiers.
It's utterly disgraceful for the military wives to fight like this.
Political Commissar Zhuang's face turned dark.
"You lot, come with me to the office!"
"Boss, she was the one who came to our house and smashed things first!" Song Fang shouted. Her nose was still bleeding from being hit on the head by Wang Rou.
"I smashed it." Lin Zhilan stood ramrod straight, her voice calm. "I kicked down the door, I smashed the things. Political Commissar Zhuang, Wang Rou got involved later while trying to break up the fight; she has nothing to do with this, so she doesn't need to go, right?"
"You..." Song Fang was speechless with anger.
Break up the fight?
Are there people like Wang Rou who take sides so seriously?
Political Commissar Zhuang glared at Lin Zhilan, clearly annoyed.
Lin Zhilan is usually mature and capable in her work, so why is she resorting to violence today?
"Stop talking nonsense, everyone who wants to fight, come along!"
Wang Rou grabbed Lin Zhilan's hand, "Sister, go ahead, I'm not afraid."
Lin Zhilan turned to look at the injury on her face, gently touched it, and scolded her with heartache, "Fool, with your small frame, who can you beat?"
"Then I'll pull her hair too," Wang Rou retorted.
Even in such a tense moment, the two of them showed a deep sisterly bond.
Song Fang was furious. She pinched her nose and pointed at them, saying, "Political Commissar Zhuang, look at them!"
Political Commissar Zhuang coughed. "Stop fooling around, come to my office!"
Upon arriving at the office, Political Commissar Zhuang sat down, his gaze sweeping over the four faces one by one. He took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and said, "Speak, what happened?"
Cai Laifeng spoke first, her words flowing rapidly, "Sir, you have to stand up for us! My daughter-in-law and I were peacefully taking care of the children at home when he kicked open our door and started smashing things everywhere. When I tried to stop him, he hit me! I'm so old, isn't he bullying an elderly person?"
As she spoke, the old lady squeezed out two tears.
He slapped his thigh and complained, looking like a victim.
Political Commissar Zhuang didn't respond, but turned his gaze to Lin Zhilan, "What's your side of the story?"
Lin Zhilan said coldly, "I already said that I was the one who kicked down the door and smashed things. But she was the one who hit me first; I was just retaliating."
Political Commissar Zhuang had a headache. "Why did you go and cause them trouble today?"
Lin Zhilan glanced at the pitiful old lady next to her, pressed the wound on her arm, and her eyes immediately reddened.
"Commissar Zhuang, as you know, my mother-in-law has a heart condition. We didn't dare tell her about Su Lang's injury. Commander Gu also said that no one is allowed to gossip about my father-in-law."
"These two," Lin Zhilan pointed to Cai Laifeng and Song Fang, "came to my doorstep today and deliberately told my mother-in-law about Su Lang's injury. My mother-in-law has had a heart attack and is still lying at home."
"How are things now?" Political Commissar Zhuang asked with concern.
"She's lying down, so it's hard to say."
"Boss, I'm innocent!" Cai Laifeng cried out in distress, spitting as she spoke. "I was just passing by the gate. What does her heart attack have to do with me? There are so many people in the residential compound; maybe she heard something from someone else. Why are you blaming me?"
Lin Zhilan sneered, "Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt its debtor. Do you want me to drag you to my mother-in-law's bedside for a confrontation? Let's ask her face-to-face if what you said really happened!"
Cai Laifeng's eyes darted away, her confidence clearly lacking, but she still stubbornly tried to argue, "Well... I didn't make things up. Su Lang was already in trouble, and I was just trying to be kind to tell her."
"Whether you mean well or not is obvious to everyone. Political Commissar Zhuang, what do you suggest we do now?"
Just as Political Commissar Zhuang was about to speak, there was a knock on the office door.
"Who?!" Political Commissar Zhuang's tone was not good.
"Report!" Zhou Jianjun walked in. "Political Commissar, it's me."
"Son, you've finally arrived! Your mother has been bullied to death!"
"Enough, Mother!" Zhou Jianjun snapped. "I heard everything outside, and you still won't admit your mistake!"
Cai Laifeng opened her mouth slightly, but dared not speak.
"Sister-in-law," Zhou Jianjun apologized to Lin Zhilan again, "Song Fang and my mother were wrong in this matter. Please forgive us this time."
Watching her husband bow his head to Lin Zhilan, Song Fang gritted her teeth and said, "Zhou Jianjun, what gives you the right to apologize for us? What wrong have we done?!"
Zhou Jianjun glared at him angrily, "Shut up! You're fighting here, have you even thought about how the child is doing?"
Upon hearing the news, Zhou Jianjun rushed home.
The house was empty; only the child was left in the room, crying his heart out.
He asked a neighbor to take care of him before he rushed over.
Song Fang choked, then retorted, "If she hadn't come to our house and caused trouble, I wouldn't have forgotten about the child!"
"Alright, alright," Political Commissar Zhuang slammed his hand on the table, "Is this the place for you to argue?!"
Everyone quieted down.
Political Commissar Zhuang said, "Dr. Lin, Zhou Jianjun has already given his word. What's your response?"
Lin Zhilan lowered her eyes for a moment, then looked up at Zhou Jianjun. "Battalion Commander Zhou, you just called me 'sister-in-law' again. I wonder if Zhou Chen, if he were alive, would be grateful for your brotherly affection?"
Zhou Jianjun's expression changed drastically. "I'm sorry, Dr. Lin."
Lin Zhilan felt something was wrong.
The book clearly states that the original owner was Zhou Jianjun's white moonlight.
From the female protagonist's perspective in the book, Zhou Jianjun adopted Linlin because he couldn't forget the original owner of the body.
However, despite adopting Linlin, he did not take care of her afterward.
Zhou Jianjun completely ignored Linlin's situation in the Zhou family, including the rumors Song Fang spread outside.
Lin Zhilan even helped him find excuses.
Zhou Jianjun may have genuinely loved the original owner of this body, but his feelings for Linlin were complicated, which is why he didn't take care of her after adopting her.
However, Lin Zhilan had met Zhou Jianjun several times and had not sensed any affection from him for the body's original owner.
On the contrary, every time Lin Zhilan saw Zhou Jianjun, she saw him avoiding and dodging.
Including Zhou Jianjun's reaction just now, Lin Zhilan found it increasingly strange.
But at least she was certain of one thing.
Zhou Jianjun absolutely disliked the original owner of the body, and the "white moonlight" mentioned in the book was utter nonsense.
One thing that can be confirmed is that Zhou Jianjun owes the original owner of this body and Zhou Chen, but it is not known in which way.
Lin Zhilan suppressed her thoughts and turned to Political Commissar Zhuang. "Political Commissar Zhuang, I have explained everything clearly. Just follow the rules and punish them if necessary. But I demand that the mother and daughter-in-law also be punished."
