Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 1096: Chapter 1108: It’s Only Natural to Feel Lonely

”Just now, I went to the small shop to buy something, and I heard those gossiping women talking about Sister-in-law An. They were saying something about Captain Mu and Sister-in-law An living together unmarried, having an abnormal male-female relationship,” Xiaoyu said halfway, only to feel the air around her chill a few degrees. She looked at Mu Xingfeng’s face, so cold it seemed like it could drip water, and let out a dry laugh, ”I’m just repeating what they said.”

”Keep talking,” Mu Xingfeng knew that if it were just these rumors, Liu Hu wouldn’t have gotten into a fight with Jia Chenggang.

Xiaoyu glanced secretly at Jia Chenggang, seeing him just lower his eyelids with an indifferent look, and continued, ”Actually, most of those women doubt Captain Mu’s marital relationship with Sister-in-law An. I don’t know who said it, but they often see when Captain Mu is not home, Liu Hu frequently goes to Captain Mu’s house and even sees Liu Hu and Sister-in-law An coming in and out, eating together...”

”That’s absolute nonsense,” Liu Hu clenched his fists, eyes red with rage, as if he was about to charge at Xiaoyu the next second.

Xiaoyu shrank back in fear, pitifully looking at Mu Xingfeng.

”Liu Hu, shut up,” Mu Xingfeng stopped Liu Hu, his aura emanating violence, looked at Xiaoyu and said, ”Continue.”

If those women spoke about his little wife like that, what more could Jia Chenggang say to make Liu Hu act out?

Xiaoyu took another glance at Jia Chenggang, moved a small step towards Mu Xingfeng, and said carefully, ”Captain Jia happened to pass by and heard what the women said. Captain Jia said... said Sister-in-law An is young and playful, and it’s only natural she would feel lonely with Captain Mu not at home...”

”Bang—”

Before Xiaoyu finished speaking, Mu Xingfeng’s fist had already struck out, landing heavily on Jia Chenggang’s face.

If what those women said were baseless suspicions, then Jia Chenggang’s words were undoubtedly confirmation, implying that An Ran and Liu Hu had some unspeakable relationship.

A while ago, An Ran returned from Qingfeng Town, and with Mu Xingfeng’s rigorous training, he had no time to care for his little wife, worrying she might not eat well. So he let Liu Hu help with grocery shopping.

His subordinate helping with household affairs is normal in any officer’s home, but here it became a handle to smear An Ran. If someone wasn’t deliberately tarnishing An Ran, how would such rumors arise?

He always knew Jia Chenggang had a bias against An Ran, but he didn’t expect Jia Chenggang could actually say something like this. Fights in the team are subject to disciplinary action, but rules mean nothing if someone dares to bully his wife.

An Ran is his life, and she’s saved his life time and time again. If anyone dares to trample on his life carelessly, what concerns would Mu Xingfeng have?

He had to get to the bottom of this. Even if he were about to be transferred from Nan’an, he absolutely couldn’t let his little wife be left with such a reputation here.

”Liu Hu, Jia Chenggang, come with me to the office, everyone else dismissed.” After saying this, Mu Xingfeng walked out of the crowd without looking back.

Jia Chenggang staggered from the punch, and if not for the soldier next to him supporting him, he might have been knocked directly to the ground.

Watching Mu Xingfeng and Liu Hu already walk out of the crowd, Jia Chenggang stood straight, shook his dizzy head, shrugged his shoulders a few times, moved his jaw a bit, and then walked out of the crowd with an unperturbed expression.
