Chapter 167 Meeting with Mr. Lu
~
For some reason, Ruan Zhao's first reaction was that he felt like he was caught in an affair, so his words were a little hollow. "Why are you here?"
Lu Yan frowned, thinking about the person in the office who called him early in the morning and said that Qin Zongwu wanted to talk to him about something urgent.
At that time, he was still very confused about what Qin Zongwu wanted to do with him. Now when he saw Ruan Zhao, Lu Yan understood that Qin Zongwu had deliberately asked him to see this scene.
"I'm here to see Brigade Commander Qin." Although Lu Yan knew that Qin Zongwu did it on purpose, he couldn't help feeling jealous, so his voice was a little cold.
"Oh, last night was a holiday and I had dinner with the kids." Ruan Zhao explained subconsciously.
As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Zongwu's voice came from behind.
"Master Lu."
Lu Yan turned around and saw Qin Zongwu walking towards him while buttoning his clothes.
Because the buttons were not completely fastened, there were a few small red marks on the exposed collarbone.
The most eye-catching thing was that Qin Zongwu's eyes were full of smug smiles, and anyone who saw him looked like he was well-fed and satisfied.
Lu Yan's face immediately turned dark.
"I still have to go to work, so I won't disturb you." Ruan Zhao didn't even turn around to look. She was afraid of embarrassment, so she said it casually and left in a hurry.
In Lu Yan's eyes, she looked guilty.
~
Seeing Lu Yan's dark face, the smile in Qin Zongwu's eyes became even more pronounced.
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Commander Lu. We stayed up too late last night, so I didn't let her go back."
Lu Yan: “…”
Lu Yan tightened his fingers and suppressed the gloom in his eyes as he looked at Qin Zongwu. "Commander Qin called me here just to show me how unethical your lifestyle is?
As a soldier, his personal ethics are not up to standard. It seems that Brigade Commander Qin doesn't want to wear this uniform anymore!"
Lu Yan acted like a superior criticizing his subordinate. Instead of being frightened, Qin Zongwu felt even more proud.
"Master Lu, why are you pretending to be stupid? Although she and I are divorced, we have maintained this relationship."
At this point, Qin Zongwu took two steps closer to Lu Yan with a playful look on his face, then leaned in close and whispered, "Didn't she tell you she wouldn't have just one lover? If you want to be with her, you have to accept this because she won't be responsible for anyone."
Lu Yan's knuckles had turned white from being pinched. He met Qin Zongwu's gaze and told himself that his words were not to be believed. However, looking at the excitement in Qin Zongwu's eyes after the lust, he could not utter a word to refute.
After all, Ruan Zhao did express this to Lu Yan, that is, if Lu Yan did not let him take responsibility, she could visit him without any scruples.
Seeing his expression, Qin Zongwu decided to withdraw his words and said, "Commander Lu, I was originally planning to discuss military training with you, but now it seems that you don't want to enter my house anymore."
Lu Yan: “…”
He was completely defeated in this battle. After two seconds of silence, Lu Yan decisively turned around and left.
Haha, if you really want to discuss military training, you can just go to the army to discuss it directly. Why bother calling him here?

In the Chinese medicine pharmacy
As soon as Ruan Zhao came in, he saw Lu Weimin and Gong Zhixian chatting and laughing inside.
Hearing the voice, Lu Weimin turned around and his gaze paused after seeing Ruan Zhao.
"Mr. Gong." Ruan Zhao first called out to Gong Zhixian before nodding to Lu Weimin. "Hello, Mr. Lu."
Lu Weimin looked surprised and asked, "Do you know me?"
Ruan Zhao smiled politely and replied, "You have a strong military aura, and you look a bit like Commander Lu, so it's not difficult to guess."
Lu Weimin laughed, "Hahaha, I heard about you from Lao Gong, and I just thought it was unbelievable at the time. Now that I see you in person, I think it's even more amazing."
Gong Zhixian interrupted, "That's because you don't have much experience. Xiao Ruan is very capable. She was the one who solved the Yancheng incident this time."
Ruan Zhao asked curiously. "How did you know?"
Gong Zhixian smiled and said, "Of course I heard it from that kid Lu Yan."
When Lu Weimin mentioned Lu Yan, something clicked in his mind, and his expression grew serious. "Comrade Ruan Zhao, with all due respect, I heard you and Lu Yan are dating?"
Ruan Zhao's expression tensed, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment.
After hesitating for a moment, she decided to tell the truth. "We do have feelings for each other, but due to some individual factors, we haven't officially started dating yet.
Until these factors are resolved, Commander Lu and I will only have a revolutionary friendship."
Lu Weimin's expression froze for a moment, but he quickly reacted. "Is that so? Okay, we won't get involved in your affairs, young people."
I am just representing Lu Yan's elders and want to know about his situation."
Ruan Zhao responded with a smile and said nothing more.

At night, Ruan Zhao was lying in the bathtub, thinking about Qin Zongwu.
Alas! If this time bomb is not resolved, she won't even be able to have a happy relationship.
But how to solve it?
Introducing other women to him? If that angers him again, and makes him completely crazy and reckless, it will only cause more trouble.
In fact, as long as Ruan Zhao lets Lu Yan take Qin Zongwu on a mission like in the original plot, and it would be best if he never comes back, until he dies on the battlefield, everything will be solved.
But when he thought about Qin Zongwu's death, Ruan Zhao inexplicably resisted this ending.
She herself couldn't explain why. She clearly didn't like Qin Zongwu, but she always subconsciously found various excuses for herself and didn't want him to have the same ending as in the original book.
Ruan Zhao didn't understand why he was like this, so he could only think about it from a metaphysical perspective.
Is there really a bond between them?
Unfortunately, Ruan Zhao could not see through Qin Zongwu's fate, let alone calculate his own future.
The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. Ruan Zhao simply took a deep breath and huddled in the bathtub.

Lu Yan lingered outside the door for a long time before convincing himself to go forward and knock on it.
But after he knocked a few times, he found that no one responded.
Looking at the light on inside, Lu Yan raised his hand and knocked again.
Still no one responded.
Lu Yan was a little confused. He raised his hand and knocked again, then called out, "Ruan Zhao."
Seeing that there was still no response, Lu Yan raised his hand and pushed the door, only to find that it was locked from the inside, which made him even more confused.
Did something happen?
Thinking of this, Lu Yan's eyes tightened, he turned his head to look at the window next to him, then walked straight over and jumped in through the window.
The window faced the kitchen. After Lu Yan went in and looked around, seeing that there was no one there, he went straight to the bedroom.
The result was that I happened to see Ruan Zhao putting on clothes.
Fortunately, Ruan Zhao was wearing a simple nightgown. When she heard Lu Yan coming in, she quickly pulled the nightgown up and did not expose herself.
However, this is only from Ruan Zhao's perspective.
When Lu Yan saw her half-naked back and the tight and sexy lines of her spine, he froze in place, and the blood in his body became uncontrollable.
After realizing what was happening, Lu Yan quickly turned around and said with a blushing face, "I'm sorry, I knocked on the door just now, but you didn't answer. I thought something happened to you."
Ruan Zhao had already fastened his clothes. Seeing that his back was facing him, he took two steps towards him. "It's okay. Is there something you want to talk to me about?"
Lu Yan then turned around, but his neck and ears were already red.
Ruan Zhao found it a little funny to see him being so shy, but when he thought about their current relationship, he tried not to laugh.
Seeing her trying to hold back her laughter, Lu Yan, who had been about to question her, suddenly didn't know what to say. "You..."
Ruan Zhao raised his eyebrows, waiting to hear what he had to say next.
After Lu Yan said the word "you", the rest of the words didn't come out for a long time.
Seeing Ruan Zhao showing no sign of shyness, Lu Yan cursed himself for being so useless. Then, suppressing his inner restlessness, he finally asked, "What is your relationship with Qin Zongwu?"
