Chapter 405 - She must get him to marry her.
Tong Xuelu was making tasty food for Uncle Zong in the Wen’s and Uncle Zong was helping her out in the kitchen.
Old Mr. Wen and Commander Xiao were bickering in the living room and the place was very lively.
Sun Manrou, on the other hand, felt like she was in hell.
She was brought to the newspaper publisher that she worked forcefully by Xiao Yang and what she had done was told to her colleagues loudly.
After learning about what she had done, the director at the publisher was in disbelief. “Comrade Sun, you are a very talented person. Why would you do such an awful thing?”
Sun Manrou covered up her face and sobbed. She felt that everyone’s eyes were on her and she wished she could just die.
The director sighed and said, “I’m afraid we can’t keep someone like you. You don’t need to come in anymore.’
Sun Manrou lowered her hands and cried, “Please give me one more chance, Director. I am truly sorry for what I had done.”
The director quickly avoided her hand that was reaching out for him and said coldly, “Hurry up and leave. Don’t make me have someone drag you out.”
Seeing that the publisher had already taken care of Sun Manrou, Xiao Yang turned and left. He then brought Yang Guojie with him to Red Star Restaurant.
Chef Yang, after learning what his son had done, picked up the broom and laid it on him. “You awful son. Who told you to do such an immoral thing?”
He was mad that someone as young as Tong Xuelu had taken the first place but it never crossed his mind to retaliate in such a dirty way.
They might have lost, but would still lose with their heads held high.
Thrashed by his father, Yang Guojie deeply regretted about his behaviors as well.
What was he thinking when he listened to the Sun siblings?
The manager of the restaurant also made the decision to let go of Yang Guojie.
Xiao Yang then headed over to Sun Wuyang’s unit.
Sun Wuyang was a specialty soldier in the Radar Corp. He was not particularly outstanding in the troop. As the Sun family had very limited connections, he started feeling unbalanced when he saw all the others around him getting promoted.
Little had he known that Tong Xuelu was Commander Xiao’s real granddaughter and that Commander Xiao didn’t even try to be nice to the Sun’s and went straight to his superior.
Interfering with someone else’s relationship, smearing a female comrade’s reputation, encouraging someone else to commit illegal acts. All of those were against the rules of the military.
After much deliberation, the troop finally decided to discharge Sun Wuyang.
When he learned of the disciplinary action, Sun Wuyang was stunned.
Being discharged from the military meant he would never be able to rejoin!
With a disciplinary action like that, he would never be able to join any government unit.
That meant that his! Life! Was! Over!
His folks had not learned about what he had done with Sun Manrou just yet. Once they found out, they’d certain beat him to death.
Wen Rugui’s trip was delayed due to some last minute things at the research center.
It was already past lunch time by the time he arrived at the military compound.
When he passed by a large tree, the girl sitting under the tree suddenly stood up and started walking toward him.
Half way over, she let out a soft cry and fell on the ground. “Comrade Wan, I’m Sun Manrou. I think I have twisted my ankle. Do you think you can come and help me up?”
Sun Manrou knew that she was done for when she was fired from her unit.
But she felt unreconciled. She was pretty and talented. She was every bit as good as Tong Xuelu.
To save herself, her only option left was to marry Wen Rugui.
As such, she had been waiting for him at this very spot since she had returned to the military compound. She pretended to have fallen and, as soon as Wen Rugui went to help her up, she’d tear her own clothes and said that he tried to take advantage of her.
Had Wen Rugui wanted to keep his career and his reputation, he would have no choice but to marry her!
Sun Manrou felt that her plan was fool proof. Everything was set and all there was left was for Wen Rugui to come and help her up.
