MWSB -Chapter 17 Although Our Marriage Was Hasty, I’ll Definitely Treat You Well

“You’d better go back and give him a good talking-to!”

“I think so too. How could he do something like this when he was already
engaged to someone else? Where does that leave your family’s reputation?”

“That girl already has a child, and I heard she’s been pregnant for more
than a month. If it’s true, once your son gets married, bring her to our hospital for an
examination!”

“Things have already come to this. There’s nothing much we can do about
it.”

The few women kept chattering among themselves. Yang Su couldn’t stand
listening anymore, so she left the military hospital.

She had only just walked out when she saw Zhou Heshan approaching from that direction
with a young woman.

The moment Yang Su saw the girl walking behind her son, she immediately felt a surge
of anger.

Zhou Heshan was walking toward her with Liu Wanwan when he happened to spot his
mother. He was actually quite happy to see her.

“Mom.”

He called out loudly.

Yang Su quickly walked over and grabbed Zhou Heshan by the arm.

“Tell me, is what I heard today true? Have you been fooling around with another
woman?”

“That girl is already pregnant, isn’t she?”

Zhou Heshan knew there was no way he could hide it. The island was only so big, and
several hours had already passed since the incident. It was perfectly normal for the news to have spread all
over the island by now.

He could only nod.

“Then that means there’s a problem with your personal conduct. How did
your leaders deal with you?”

Yang Su frowned, her sharp eyes fixed on Zhou Heshan’s expression. She
didn’t miss the slightest detail.

Seeing Zhou Heshan stammering and refusing to answer, Yang Su immediately released
his arm and snorted.

“If you won’t tell me, I’ll go ask around myself. I’m sure
someone will know the result of your punishment soon enough.”

Yang Su turned to leave, but Zhou Heshan hurriedly grabbed his mother.

“The punishment has already been decided. The regimental commander said I have
to write a 3,000-word self-criticism. And there’s something else…”

Zhou Heshan lowered his head. After stammering for a long while, he finally lowered
his voice and said,

“I’ve been suspended from duty for a month so I can properly reflect on
my actions.”

What?

The moment Yang Su heard that he had been suspended, she nearly went crazy.

“So you messed around with another woman and got yourself into this state,
huh?”

“You were only going home to visit your family. Why did you have to do
something like this? Our families arranged your marriage with the Liu family when you were children. Whoever
you marry, you’re still getting married, aren’t you?”

“You’ve really disappointed me!”

After scolding him, Yang Su turned her face away.

Liu Wanwan was frightened out of her wits by her outburst. She tightly clutched her
clothes with both hands and didn’t dare say a word.

Zhou Heshan was about to persuade his mother a little more when Yang Su suddenly
charged toward Liu Wanwan like a madwoman and launched into a furious tirade.

“You little tramp! Why did you seduce my son?”

“So you’re the woman my son was fooling around with, huh? How ridiculous!
You don’t even look that special. My son must have had his brain clouded by lard for a
moment!”

“You’ve got some nerve! You actually seduced my son!”

“You went to all this trouble because you saw that he was a deputy battalion
commander and wanted to marry him, didn’t you? Well, look at what happened now. He’s been
suspended. Are you satisfied?”

“Because of you, his future career is going to be affected!”

“You’re nothing but a fox spirit!”

Yang Su ranted for a long time, yet still didn’t feel satisfied.

Liu Wanwan stood to the side, tears streaming continuously down her face.

“Stop crying all the time!” Yang Su put her hands on her hips and
continued berating her. “I really don’t know if there’s something wrong with my
son’s head. How could he possibly choose such a useless woman who knows nothing but how to
cry?”

“I don’t like you one bit!”

Yang Su’s eyes were practically bulging out of their sockets.

Even after thoroughly berating Liu Wanwan, she still wasn’t satisfied. Seeing
Liu Wanwan standing there sobbing only made her even more irritated.

Zhou Heshan, who was standing nearby, tried to persuade his mother.

“Mom, stop saying things like that. Wanwan is already carrying my
child.”

“What the hell does a child matter?!”

“Don’t you understand that yourself?”

Yang Su abruptly turned her head and stared at Zhou Heshan.

“Because of what happened this time, you won’t have any chance of getting
promoted for the next two or three years. Do you understand?”

Zhou Heshan said nothing, looking deeply troubled.

That was indeed the case.

After hearing this, Liu Wanwan could not help swallowing nervously. No way,
right?

She had been thinking that Zhou Heshan would eventually get promoted, and then she
could become a battalion commander’s wife, or even the wife of a deputy regiment commander.

How could this have such a huge impact?

“Auntie, I really didn’t know!” Liu Wanwan cried even harder.
“Brother Shan and I truly love each other. We want to be together forever, so we just…
couldn’t control ourselves.”

The moment Liu Wanwan finished speaking, Yang Su let out a cold laugh, turned around,
and slapped her across the face.

Zhou Heshan hurriedly stepped forward to pull his mother away. Liu Wanwan covered her
face, feeling extremely aggrieved.

Not only had Liu Qingyue slapped her twice today, but now she had even been slapped
by Zhou Heshan’s mother.

If word got out, how humiliating would it be when she eventually followed Zhou Heshan
to the island?

“Couldn’t control yourselves?” Yang Su sneered. “Are you
kidding me? If you hadn’t seduced my son, would he have done something so disgraceful? Shut your
mouth! Who are you crying for? I’m not a man, so your tricks don’t work on me!”

Liu Wanwan covered her face and stood to the side, looking pitiful and aggrieved,
while chaos continued to unfold on Zhou Heshan’s side.

Meanwhile, Lu Fengting had finished tidying up Liu Qingyue’s room and had even
taken her to buy some basic necessities for daily life.

Watching him carry bags and bags of things inside, Liu Qingyue could not help
laughing.

“Actually, we can buy things little by little. Don’t wear yourself out.
You should get some proper rest today, too.”

That was what she said aloud, but in her heart, she was thinking that there were
already quite a lot of things in her little wooden house.

After all, she had completely emptied out her home before coming here, so she already
had all kinds of daily necessities.

After bringing everything inside, Lu Fengting sat down on a nearby chair.

“What I said today wasn’t something I blurted out on impulse. When I
rescued you back then, I already wanted to take responsibility for you, but you said you weren’t
willing. Later, I witnessed everything that happened to you, and I felt that I should take responsibility
for you.”

“Although this marriage is rather hasty, I will definitely treat you well. You
can rest assured. I’ll take responsibility for you until the very end. I’m not just saying this
for fun.”

Lu Fengting was extremely serious.

Looking at his face, Liu Qingyue solemnly nodded.

“I believe you.”

In her previous life, although the two of them had married without love, they had
still lived together as husband and wife. Their marriage had not been particularly miserable.

It was only after Lu Fengting failed to receive any response from her that his
attitude toward her gradually became more distant. Even so, he had never treated her poorly when it came to
their daily life.

That was why Liu Qingyue believed him.

As long as she also approached their relationship with sincerity and enthusiasm, the
two of them could gradually develop feelings for each other. Their life together would surely get better and
better.

“You stay here for now.”

Lu Fengting said a couple more simple words before finally leaving.

Liu Qingyue lay down on the freshly tidied bed. Most of the musty smell in the room
had already dissipated. After opening the windows tomorrow and letting the room air out for another couple
of days, it should be fine.

The journey here had been quite exhausting, especially after everything that had
happened today. Liu Qingyue also wanted to get some proper rest.

She was quite satisfied with the outcome today.

She had completely gotten rid of that scumbag, and she had also caused quite a scene,
making sure everyone saw the true faces of the two of them.

The course of events was already different from her previous life.

From now on, everything would be different too!

While lying on the bed and resting, Liu Qingyue entered her space once again.

She simply wanted to see whether there was anything inside the space that she could
take out and use—something that would not attract Lu Fengting’s attention.

However, the moment she entered the space, she discovered that an astonishing change
had occurred inside.
