Chapter 161: Then Leave Together—No One Gets to Look Down on Anyone

Qin Wenhuo shifted his gaze away from Zhu Xiaohong and swept a cool glance at Lü Feng.

He spoke coldly, “Lü Feng, your wife is really something! She insisted on getting a job from my wife when she didn’t have one—and now that I’ve arranged a job for her, she acts like it’s beneath her!”

Lü Feng’s face flushed bright red with embarrassment.

He was mortified.

“…Thank you, Captain Qin, but we really don’t need a job for now.”

Who didn’t know what his wife was like?

Let her sweep floors at a school?

That was never going to happen.

She’d definitely make a scene about it when they got home.

Qin Wenhuo’s expression turned even colder as he questioned sternly:

“Lü Feng, if your wife never really wanted a job, then why does she keep coming to my house and making a fuss? Is my wife in charge of jobs for military spouses? She just transferred to this post herself—what kind of authority do you think she has?”

“I hope this is the last time. Otherwise, I’ll have no choice but to report it.”

Lü Feng’s face changed color several times. “I—I won’t let her come over again.”

Qin Wenhuo’s voice was icy. “It had better be that way.”

Lü Feng nodded in shame, then forcefully dragged Zhu Xiaohong away.

But Zhu Xiaohong didn’t want to leave.

For the first time, Lü Feng’s face darkened and he spoke forcefully: “If you don’t leave, I’ll send you back to your hometown.”

That made Zhu Xiaohong furious. “How heartless of you, Lü Feng! You’d actually send me back home? What, are you disgusted with me now?”

She started pounding on Lü Feng with her fists.

Qin Wenhuo watched this farce with a cold face and said directly, “Then let Lü Feng go back to the village with you. That way, you won’t have to worry about him looking down on you.”

His words were firm and decisive, instantly making Zhu Xiaohong stop.

She turned to Qin Wenhuo in disbelief—was he really suggesting her husband leave the army?

“I can have him process his discharge today and leave with you. Well? Happy now?”

Zhu Xiaohong’s face turned purple with frustration—happy, her foot.

If her husband left the army and went back to the village, what hope would she have left?

Go back to the countryside and farm together? Spend every day bent over the fields?

Qin Wenhuo couldn’t be bothered to say more to her. He turned his sharp gaze to Lü Feng.

His voice grew even colder. “Lü Feng, handle your family’s problems. Otherwise—you know what will happen.”

Lü Feng’s face was ashen. “Yes, I will. I promise.”

He dragged Zhu Xiaohong away. “Let’s go. Don’t cause any more trouble.”

This time, Zhu Xiaohong didn’t resist and followed him out.

Compared to being unemployed, she was much more afraid of her husband being discharged and sent back home.

There were onlookers too, and once again they witnessed the fearsome power of Qin Wenhuo, the cold-faced King of Hell. He was truly terrifying.

When Qin Wenhuo’s gaze swept over the crowd, the onlookers quickly dispersed.

But one person actually stepped forward to face him.

It was Mother Hao from next door.

“Comrade, about that cleaning job you mentioned—can you give it to our family?”

Qin Wenhuo looked at Mother Hao.

He’d only arrived last night, but he’d already heard this auntie’s voice in the morning.

After all, not only did he have good hearing, but his memory was excellent.

He immediately recognized her as someone from the neighboring courtyard.

In other words—she was Hao Rong’s mother.

“Your family needs a job? Then have Hao Rong go register with Wang Hongxia. She’s in charge of jobs for military families.”

Mother Hao was clearly dissatisfied. “Didn’t you just say there was a cleaning job at the school? If they don’t want it, then give it to us!”"
