Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Like Raising Pigs

Cheng Su went to the little restaurant, she definitely had no intention of dealing with this Ning Ge, let Qi Taiguo handle his own mess.

Qi Taiguo also felt a bit stifled and could only take Ning Ge to the barracks to make a phone call. The white bandage around Ning Ge’s head was so conspicuous that it made him the center of attention, and yet he was oblivious, waving cheerfully at the passing soldiers.

Qi Taiguo planned to leave Ning Ge in the reception office and just then, Regimental Commander Mai, who was about to head out, appeared.

”Salute,” Qi Taiguo respectfully gave a military salute.

Regimental Commander Mai returned the salute with a smile, about to leave, when suddenly a surprised voice exclaimed, ”My goodness, it’s Regimental Commander Mai! Weren’t you with the 63rd Army? How did you get transferred here?”

Both Regimental Commander Mai and Qi Taiguo were taken aback by the voice, and when they looked over, who else could it be but Ning Ge, grinning from ear to ear with an obsequious smile?

Seeing him walking up overly familiarly, he grabbed Regimental Commander Mai’s hands with fervent excitement as if he had finally found his organization, saying, ”Regimental Commander Mai, it’s so great to see you. You have no idea what I’ve been through. I just wanted to enjoy the scenery and was robbed, nearly lost my life. Thank heavens Big Brother Qi, no, Commander Qi saved me, otherwise, I would’ve been a goner!”

While speaking, Ning Ge even wiped the corner of his eye, but everyone knew that there could not possibly be any tears.

Qi Taiguo was surprised; this kid knew their regimental commander?

Regimental Commander Mai was also momentarily stunned by Ning Ge’s words, scrutinizing the young man holding his hands, ”You are?”

”Regimental Commander Mai, you probably don’t remember me. I visited your house with my elder brother when I was in high school. It was for your mother’s sixtieth birthday celebration, just five years ago. Oh, my name is Ning Ge,” Ning Ge added.

Ning Ge?

Regimental Commander Mai’s brows furrowed slightly.

”Commander, do you recognize him?” Qi Taiguo asked.

”No impressions, but a Ning surname...” Regimental Commander Mai hesitated, looking towards Ning Ge and then asked, ”Ning Gang...?”

”That’s right, my big brother. I’m the fourth in the family,” Ning Ge promptly said, adding, ”I won’t lie to you, Regimental Commander Mai, I sneaked out from home. They were arranging a marriage for me, and I wouldn’t listen to them, so I came here. Little did I know I would encounter such bad luck as getting robbed.”

Hearing that he was Ning Gang’s younger brother, Regimental Commander Mai quickly asked, ”Are you alright then?”

Qi Taiguo frowned; they really knew each other?

”I’m fine, thanks to Commander Qi saving me, it really was a blessing in disguise. I’m recovering at Commander Qi’s house now,” Ning Ge smiled.

”Then your family...”

”Regimental Commander Mai, you can’t notify my family. Let me recover properly for a few days, then I’ll call them myself. Please, don’t reveal that I’m here,” Ning Ge immediately said.

”You, always acting like a young man who needs to get married. You can’t be this capricious,” Regimental Commander Mai shook his head with an elder’s benevolent smile, noticing his bandaged head, and said, ”Since that’s the case, you should recover well for a few days before informing your family. As for the robbery, public security isn’t as good as it used to be, but don’t worry, I will notify the Public Security Bureau. We will not tolerate such scumbags.”

”Oh, our country needs upright and people-serving soldiers like you, Regimental Commander Mai!” Ning Ge shamelessly flattered.

Regimental Commander Mai stood tall and also inquired about his elder brother and family patriarch; Ning Ge answered each question.

”Qi Taiguo, since Fourth Young Master Ning was saved by you guys, it’s a kind of destiny. I think you should let him stay at your place for a few days,” Regimental Commander Mai suggested, patting Qi Taiguo’s shoulder.

Qi Taiguo’s lips pursed.

Regimental Commander Mai pulled him aside and lowered his voice, ”He’s the younger brother of Chief Ning from the Capital. Befriending him will only bring you good, treat it as if you’re raising a pig for a few days, curry a favor, how could that be bad?”

Qi Taiguo was taken aback, his brows slightly knitting together; he understood Regimental Commander Mai’s hint, just ’raising a pig’?

He looked toward Ning Ge, where that ’pig’ was grinning at him with a self-satisfied look.
