Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law-Chapter 1146 - 1145: Face

"What? A female classmate?"

"A freshman at the military academy?"

"And she topped the entrance exams?"

The crowd gasped collectively as a tall, burly man voiced the thoughts everyone dared not express.

"Is Major General Huo cradle robbing?"

Lei Hao laughed as if he enjoyed the disaster unfolding. He deliberately said, "You all better not say this in front of him, or he would surely go mad." He had noticed it back at the royal mansion.

The proud and arrogant Great Devil cared deeply about his little wife.

And he particularly disliked anyone mentioning that he was older than his wife. Anyone daring to suggest it was like poking his lungs.

Shen Lijun was stunned when he suddenly heard that Jiang Nanfei was actually Huo Beijiang’s wife. Dumbfounded, it took a while for him to come to his senses, only snapping out of it when someone bumped into him.

"Who would have thought!" his comrade whispered, "We knew this batch of freshmen was impressive, but never imagined they’d have such prominent backgrounds."

These instructors, having the most contact with the new students, were the clearest about the situation. Zhou Xiang was already avoided due to her significant background, so they thought she was tough enough, but the low-key Jiang Nanfei turned out to have the biggest influence.

Who knows what expression those who secretly looked down on villagers would have upon learning the truth.

Shen Lijun was so stunned he didn’t know what to say.

His comrade, however, continued eagerly, "Now I understand why He Shasha nearly got expelled for fighting. It was because of this. No wonder she was pre-selected by the 36th Division."

Such luck.

Who could say Jiang Nanfei didn’t have a hand in this?

"Is... is that so?" Shen Lijun muttered, subdued, only realizing how bitter his satisfaction was when he spoke.

These days, he had been waiting for Jiang Nanfei’s return, constantly worried that her sudden leave was due to some trouble.

Had he known...

He took a deep breath, swallowing the bitterness filling his heart, smoothing over his inner discontent. In the blink of an eye, he was still that determined, composed soldier.

At that moment, everyone noticed several people walking towards them, led by none other than Huo Beijiang. Clad in army camouflage, his stature appeared tall and commanding, unparalleled even though surrounded by elite special forces, he remained the most striking.

Shen Lijun watched from a distance this man whose reputation preceded him, meeting the legendary Huo Beijiang for the first time. During the last military exercise, he was busy preparing the freshman training and had missed it.

Seeing the powerful aura emanating from Huo Beijiang, everyone finally understood why their captain always became gritted teeth furious whenever Huo Beijiang was mentioned.

As the two parties met and saluted each other, Lei Hao was the first to fire a shot.

"What are you doing here? This is Owl Dragon Team’s grounds, not your 36th Division."

Huo Beijiang smirked, glancing at Lei Hao with a mocking smile, barely acknowledging him. Instead, his gaze shifted to the middle of the training field; his little wife hadn’t paid him any attention all the way here, clearly angry.

This made him feel incredibly frustrated. He had a mountain of matters to attend to, but if he were to just leave now, who knew how long his little wife would stay mad!

"Huo Beijiang!" Lei Hao grew furious.

"Please address me as Major General Huo," Huo Beijiang retorted, almost choking the man, "Haven’t your commanders taught you that?"
