Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 1108: Chapter 1120: Related to You?

How did the captain respond at the time? It seems he directly retorted to the officer, saying that no matter if he’s the Special Training Team captain or not, he would handle the situation the same way.

Although arrogant, the captain’s protective attitude moved him even more.

So after leaving the officer’s office, he didn’t even eat lunch and continued investigating the matter. Throwing mud at him was one thing, but doing it to his sister-in-law and boss was crossing the line; he’d turn the Nan’an Guard Team upside down to find the truth.

However, even though he found out about it, without the sister-in-law’s testimony, it would be hard to proceed without evidence.

”Who do you think spread the rumors?”

At this moment, An Ran walked out from the restroom, having only half-understood Liu Hu’s words, but knowing Liu Hu was investigating the matter.

”Everyone says it’s Sister-in-law Sun, but no one has come forward to testify. Even if you ask Sister-in-law Sun directly, she wouldn’t admit it,” Liu Hu clenched his fists. He remembered that a while ago, when Captain Mu was not home, he delivered groceries to the young sister-in-law and had run into Sun Lufang several times, so it was likely during those days that she concocted stories about him and the young sister-in-law.

If it weren’t for being here, he’d want nothing more than to find Sun Lufang at her home and ask her properly.

An Ran knew this matter would be difficult to investigate. Words are just words, and without someone to testify, no one could definitively say Sun Lufang did it. Put another way, even if one or two people testified, if Sun Lufang denied it, they would have no recourse.

She just didn’t understand why Sun Lufang would spread such rumors about her. Was it related to the previous performance event? But she didn’t even enter Room 203 that time, so why was she implicated?

Mu Xingfeng looked at An Ran’s tense face, knowing she was troubled by it, and walked over to pat her shoulder, ”Don’t think about it. This matter isn’t related to you. The problem lies with me.”

An Ran raised her head and asked puzzledly, ”Related to you?”

”Yes, usually changes are made after the holidays. This time, Nan’an’s shifts are significant. There’s early news that S Province will establish a new Guard Team soon. They’ll parachute some people there, and Nan’an will transfer two chief guards and four captains. But the personnel aren’t transferred equally. Among those waiting to become chief guards from our side, Li Dajun has all the qualifications for it. But it happens that Captain Li and I are in the same area, and it’s unlikely two chief guards would come from one area. It’s likely for this reason that Sun Lufang got the wrong idea.”

Mu Xingfeng isn’t one to talk much, but seeing An Ran distressed over this, he carefully explained it to her.

”So doesn’t she know you’ll be transferred to Imperial City to become the Special Training Team captain?”

”The Empire is forming the Special Training Team in secret, so families seldom know about these things.”

There’s strict discipline in the organization, and even family members aren’t informed about many things. Li Dajun is a principled man, and he would never reveal these matters to family members.

”Liu Hu, you should go back and rest now. I’ll handle this matter.”

After Liu Hu left, Mu Xingfeng didn’t immediately deal with the matter but instead went to the refrigerator, took out ingredients, and entered the kitchen.

”Wife, tonight your husband will make you beef noodles.”

An Ran isn’t one to remain worried. Since they found out who spread the rumors and Mu Xingfeng said he would handle it, she naturally trusted Mu Xingfeng’s abilities.
