How could Chen Jiao not be moved by such a handsome, rich, and loyal man?

As long as she held onto Yi Zheng tightly, she would no longer have to submit to different men and could be Mrs. Yi in peace!

Thinking of this, Chen Jiao almost laughed out loud.

At the side, Cheng Fang had been secretly peeking at Chen Jiao’s expression. He whispered to his colleague beside him, “I think the rumors just now are true!”

His colleague’s eyes widened in disbelief. “How can you be so sure all of a sudden?”

“Intuition.” Cheng Fang said with an unfathomable expression, “Looks like even if Chen Jiao can’t become Mrs President in the future, she’s definitely not someone we can order around!”

Elsewhere, Shi Man went home and poured herself a cup of hot tea.

At the side, Butler Qi approached her respectfully. “Missy, did you have a good time out with President Yi today? Why didn’t Presudent Yi come back with you?”

“I didn’t go out with him.”

As soon as Shi Man finished speaking, Shen Xian, who had been sitting in the corner, walked over in disbelief. “What’s going on? Didn’t you agree to go shopping with him? What’s wrong with the two of you? You can tell Mom anything.”

Shi Man chuckled helplessly. Seeing how anxious she was, she quickly held her shoulders and pressed her down on the sofa. “Don’t worry, I can settle my own matters.”

“How can 1 not be worried?” Shen Xian doted on her daughter the most. She knew that Shi Man was working hard now. Her baby should be living a carefree school life, but she had been transferred to the army in advance. She really wanted to help her daughter with these small matters.

Seeing her persistence, Shi Man sighed silently and said, “Actually, it’s not a big deal. There’s just a problem with Yi Zheng, but I’m already letting him resolve it himself.”

“What’s the problem? Is it very serious?” Shen Xian asked impatiently.

For it to make the two children fall out so badly, if it was some difficult problem, she could get Shi Zhong to help.

“It’s not serious, Mom. Don’t worry.” Shi Man took a sip of tea calmly and patted her mother’s shoulder. “Don’t tell Yi Zheng what you asked me today. In short, don’t interfere in this matter. Yi Zheng will settle it himself.”

Hearing Shi Man’s words, Shen Xian finally heaved a sigh of relief.

In the morning, when she saw Shi Man’s cold attitude, she thought that this child really had the intention to cancel the engagement. Now, it seemed that she was indeed too worried.

Shi Man still had high hopes for Yi Zheng.

Since that was the case, she did not have to worry.

Shen Xian, who had been worried for the whole day, finally felt relieved. She even ate a lot more for dinner.

When Shi Man was about to leave in the morning, Su Tang hurriedly caught up with her and said, “The school’s midterm exam is in two days. Don’t forget to come and participate. This will count toward your final results.”

Shi Man nodded to indicate that she understood and drove to the army alone.

Su Tang looked at her departing figure and swallowed the words she wanted to say, leaving only worry on her face.

She was still a student in the military academy. With Chief Lu’s instructions, it was fine if she did not go to class, but she still had to participate in important large-scale exams.

Shi Man knew what to do.

When she arrived at the military district, Shi Man wanted to return to the dormitory to change her clothes. However, as soon as she walked into the dormitory, Cheng Luo rushed out. Her forehead was covered in sweat. It was obvious that she had been waiting for her for a long time.

“What’s the matter?” Shi Man handed her a tissue to wipe her sweat in confusion.

Cheng Luo nodded repeatedly and said, “Instructor Shi, come back to the dormitory with me to take a look. Yue Ming has gone crazy!”

Thinking of the special punishment she had given Yue Ming, Shi Man frowned and followed behind her.

This was the first time she had come to the female soldier’s dormitory. However, since one was in the army, one had to follow the rules everywhere. Therefore, generally speaking, even if it was a dormitory that provided a resting place, it should be quiet. It should not be like now, where one foot had stepped into the market and it was noisy everywhere. From time to time, she could hear a few screams.

Shi Man looked down at the corridor under her feet and hesitated. “Is the water pipe broken?”

Cheng Luo shook her head and led Shi Man deeper into the corridor for a while. Ignoring her wet shoes and socks, she pointed at the man in the washroom who was staring at the washing machine with a deep frown and said, “Instructor Shi, did you really ask him to work for us?”

Was he really not here to cause trouble?

Early in the morning, Yue Ming knocked on the dormitory door one by one with a dark expression. He went door to door asking for their dirty clothes. If they did not give them to him, his attitude would be very fierce.

A few girls boldly asked, and he told them that Instructor Shi had asked him to do this. That was why someone dared to give him their dirty training uniforms.

Unexpectedly, Yue Ming did not know how to use such an old-fashioned washing machine despite looking quite smart.

It was hard to imagine how he had lived alone in the army for so long!

Coincidentally, a thin female soldier mustered her courage and walked to Yue Ming’s side. She carefully guided him on how to drain the washing machine..
