On the other side, Shi Man had originally planned to look for Sean and the others to ask how things were going last night. Unexpectedly, she received a call from the army halfway. She had no choice but to turn around and drive to the military district.

As soon as she arrived at the command center, Shi Man felt the coldness of the atmosphere inside.

The small office was already filled with people.

Shi Man glanced at them. Other than the few leaders she knew and Yue Ming and Zhang Rui, she did not know anyone else. However, this did not stop her from guessing their intentions.

Especially Zhang Rui.

Today, she looked at her with anger in her eyes, as if she wanted to skin her alive.

It seemed that the matter last night had indeed been done.

Shi Man lowered her eyes and sneered.

Towards such a vicious person, she would never care if her methods were brilliant or not. After all, being soft-hearted to such a person was the greatest stupidity.

When the leader saw that Shi Man had arrived, he waved for her to sit beside him and said in a low voice, “Instructor Shi, it’s like this. I called you over this time because of your previous bet. The army has its rules and regulations. 1 don’t think this bet can be counted.”

Shi Man raised her eyebrows in understanding and pouted at the the exquisitely dressed couple behind Yue Ming. “These two are Yue Ming’s parents, right?”

Yue Lin’s expression darkened and his attitude was firm. It was obvious that he did not want to talk to Shi Man.

The woman sitting next to him couldn’t hold it in anymore and said, “Instructor Shi, you look young. I hope you can perform your duty well in the army and not force my son to make any bets that violate the rules. Let me tell you, I won’t let my son leave the army!”

The Yue family was a military family. If there was a deserter in this generation, wouldn’t it tarnish the reputation of the entire family?

She felt that Shi Man was really a bad person. Perhaps she had been targeting her son from the beginning!

Upon hearing this, Zhang Rui chimed in, “That’s right, Shi Man. You’re too vicious. Yue Ming is the top student in our army. He’s a talent. What good will it do you to push such a person away?”

Shi Man looked up at her and said, “You’ve been an instructor for three years, and you’ve always only been a B-rank when you go on missions. You can’t guarantee that you can complete all of them perfectly. The best students you train can only be ranked fifth. Zhang Rui, you’re not a talent, right? Then what right do you have to stay?”

Zhang Rui’s face instantly turned red from her words. She glanced at the leader awkwardly and hurriedly stammered to defend herself. “I… I’ve been in the army for so many years. Even if I don’t have any credit, I’ve worked hard. What right do you have to let me leave?”

Shi Man sneered. “Zhang Rui, you were the one who wanted to participate in the bet. You said it yourself. No one forced you, right?”

She turned her head slightly to look at the leader. “You should have heard it with your own ears. As an instructor, if Zhang Rui can’t keep her word, 1 believe the students won’t be willing to obey her commands in the future.”

“Shi Man, don’t be too despicable!” Zhang Rui was so angry that her chest heaved violently.

She had really underestimated Shi Man in the past. She did not expect this person to be even more ruthless than her despite her young age!

Last night, she only remembered that she had been knocked out by someone. The rest of her memory was blank.

However, when she woke up and saw her naked lower body and the pain of fatigue, she instantly understood what had just happened.

When she understood, her first reaction was relief.

At that time, she was alone in the abandoned house.

It was not her first time. She had had a few men in the past. Although she was tainted by someone while she was unconscious, she could pretend that nothing had happened if no one knew!

There was no way she would go to the police.

For instructors in the army, nothing was more important than reputation.

Besides, would it have mattered if she had called the police?

That place was remote and uninhabited. There were probably no surveillance cameras there. The police would only blow things up with great fanfare. At that time, she would be the one to be humiliated.

Therefore, the moment she reacted, she got up and put on her clothes. She carefully checked every corner of the room. After confirming that there were no cameras, she hurriedly left this nightmare.

However, she still had to settle the score. Shi Man should bear the brunt of it!

Seeing that Zhang Rui was about to explode from anger, the leader quickly stood up and said, “Shi Man, Instructor Zhang is indeed more experienced than you in the army. Let’s forget about this bet. I don’t object to you competing fairly in private. It’s just that you have to stop when it implicates important matters. Don’t hurt the friendship between your colleagues.”

Zhang Rui was not surprised to hear the leader speak up for her.

After all, she had tried her best to please Chu Yue for a long time, but it reaped some benefits.

These people more or less had to show Chu Yue some respect. Otherwise, they would not be able to explain themselves to Chief Lu.

Shi Man did not intend to give her any respect.

Just as she was about to retort, her cell phone rang at the wrong time.

The phone rang for a short while before returning to silence.

This was the call reminder Shi Man had set up for Sean.

It seemed that Sean was also anxious to report to her about last night..
