Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander-Chapter 1118 - 740: Misunderstanding (Part 2)

Meijun’s mother got along well with that colleague, who wanted Meijun to marry her sister’s son. Tong Bao’s parents are factory leaders, and he has a good job; Meijun’s mother also thought it was a good match. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Originally, the matchmaking was scheduled for the day after tomorrow, but suddenly someone introduced Tong Bao to another person. Meijun’s mother’s colleague was afraid Tong Bao would go on a date with someone else and moved the meeting up.

Meijun’s mother only found out at the last minute. When she called, we were already out for dinner, so she couldn’t find us at home, and ended up bringing the two of them over.

She thought Meijun was working overtime that night and not coming home, and that’s what she told them when she brought them over. However, we returned home, drunk.

You all left after dropping me off, leaving Meijun there alone. Tong Bao was upset when he smelled the alcohol and asked his aunt quietly why she lied to him. He said he was looking for a wife who would live an honest day-to-day life, not someone who didn’t take things seriously and just liked having fun.

He wasn’t very discreet either; Meijun’s mother heard him and was a bit unhappy. However, Meijun’s mother’s colleague didn’t want to lose face in front of her nephew, so she directly questioned Meijun’s mother.

Of course, Meijun’s mother defended Meijun, saying her daughter had always been honest, and tonight was a special circumstance. Then Tong Bao said that even under special circumstances, a girl shouldn’t drink like this and with men.

I happened to be thirsty, so I got up and asked Meijun to pour me some water. At the time, I honestly didn’t understand the situation, thinking it was one of our own talking. The guy snorted coldly, saying he didn’t like girls who were willing to be maids for others.

Once Meijun poured the bit of cold water from the kettle for me to drink, I became a bit more clear-headed and saw strangers sitting in the room. I quietly asked Meijun who they all were and where you all went.

Meijun quietly explained to me, so I quickly got up to explain to them. I told them that Meijun and I were comrades, colleagues, and good friends, and that I didn’t treat her like a maid. As for why I’d drunk too much, it was because a good friend is leaving, and I felt sad.

Then Meijun tugged on me, indicating I didn’t need to explain further. She told her mother she didn’t want to date or get married right now, and even if she did, she would find someone herself and didn’t need family introductions.

Her mother hadn’t said anything yet when her mother’s colleague became displeased and snorted, saying Meijun was really too full of herself to care about such petty things. She said her own nephew’s conditions were so good that if it weren’t for their good colleague relationship, she wouldn’t even make the introduction.

She also said if she had known earlier that Meijun would go out drinking with a bunch of men and women, she wouldn’t have helped with the introduction at all. Then, Meijun politely apologized to her, saying she was sorry for troubling her and that she wasn’t targeting her, but just wanted to share her thoughts with her mom.

Later, the guy joined in with all kinds of complaints. Even though my mind was a bit muddled, I clearly understood the situation. Those things I told you earlier were pieced together from their repeated chatter.

Afterward, people from the nearby dormitory heard the commotion and came over to see what was happening. Meijun then pulled them away, leaving me here to wait for you... "Yun Doudou glanced at the time, "They’ve been gone for nine minutes."

"I get it, someone like him doesn’t deserve Meijun at all, it’s better for them to break up. But in the future, Meijun’s mother and that colleague might not get along well..." Luo Xiaoqiong sighed, "If I had known, I would have gone downstairs then. No matter if my eyes were swollen, they could already smell from the alcohol what we did; trying to cover it up now is pointless. Oh, if only there was a way to buy regret pills in this world."

"Alright, don’t think too much about it. That guy wasn’t a good match for Liu Meijun. If Liu Meijun’s mother’s colleague develops an issue with Liu Meijun’s mother because of this, then such a person isn’t worth making friends with.

You just need to care for Liu Meijun, check if her mother’s work is affected. If it is, help where you can; if not, don’t do anything.

It’s late, I will head back to the dormitory. You two should drink some hot water and sleep early. We all have to get up early for work tomorrow, don’t show up looking like pandas."

"No way, I have to go home and call Guoguo to explain, otherwise she won’t sleep and will keep waiting for me..." Yun Doudou said as she got up, "You accompany me to make the call and then take me home."

"Alright." Zhou Hanliang was also quite frustrated himself right now; he found himself adept at handling group affairs but always lacking when it came to these personal matters.

Earlier at Jing Zhe’s place, he thought his analysis was smart but made a fool of himself instead. Here, he naïvely assumed that people would trust his explanations; how naïve!

Early the next morning, Zhou Mikang arrived at the division and found Zhou Hanliang with big dark circles under his eyes, and asked him: "Didn’t sleep last night, what were you up to?"

Hesitating a bit, Zhou Hanliang asked, "Division Commander, being able to follow you is what I’ve been hoping for. But do you think, with my current ability, I can really do a good job as the division political commissar?"

"Hmm?" Zhou Mikang frowned at him, "Something happened?"

Zhou Hanliang sighed, "I just did some self-reflection and feel that my abilities seem to be lacking."

"Then what do you mean?"

Zhou Hanliang said bitterly, "I’m just afraid I’ll hold you back."

Zhou Mikang nodded, "Hmm, then I’ll apply to have you transferred."

"Commander!" Hanliang’s eyes widened in panic, that’s not what he meant!!!! (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, you’re welcome to visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations or monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read at m.qidian.com.)
