Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 792 - Chapter 792 Chapter 791 Adding Insult to Injury_1

Chapter 792: Chapter 791: Adding Insult to Injury_1 Chapter 792: Chapter 791: Adding Insult to Injury_1 Today, Major General Ge Jincheng of the 129th Army was also invited to join. As soon as he got off the car, he was surrounded by people who subsequently started throwing insults his way. Ge Jincheng was so angry that his face turned red, and his neck thickened, almost about to leave in a huff.

What was more infuriating was that Xi Liqun was also present. This shameless man; Ge Jincheng could not wait to give this old man a beat-up. They had agreed that the 129th Army would receive the last batch of weapons, but no one thought that the second army would swoop in at the last minute and intercept them.

Ge Jincheng, in his anger, smashed a few porcelain jars.

He didn’t know what backdoor channel this old man had taken. He was utterly shameless, showing no sense of decorum, and had completely disgraced their military reputation.

It was said that Ge Jincheng had given Xi Liqun a thorough reprimanding in his office.

All the officials in the Northern Military District were now aware of this matter, and it had become a source of private amusement. They don’t usually get to see slapstick, but today, they seized the opportunity to ridicule Ge Jincheng in person. This was the main reason so many esteemed guests attended this year’s military academy opening ceremony.

The drunkard’s intent lies not in the wine, but the opportunity to laugh at Ge Jincheng’s misfortune in person. For all these years, he has always been the most arrogant, and the 129th Army has always been the best.

Wei Qin, together with Jiang Yang, got down from the black sedan. As soon as they arrived, they could hear the loud, full voices of a group of officers, who were as boisterous in private as they were dignified in public.

Jiang Yang, holding Wei Qin’s hand, curiously observed everything around him and asked in a soft voice, “Brother Wei Qin, where’s Sister Nan Fei?” Wei Qin had said he would bring him to find Sister Nan Fei today.

“You’ll see her in a bit!” Wei Qin wanted to leave with Jiang Yang.

“Huh? Wei Qin?” One keen-eyed person spotted Wei Qin and quickly moved towards him.

For them, Wei Qin was even more important than the god of wealth! After all, he had control over the most advanced weapons, and anyone who could get more of them would be ecstatic.

“Good to see you, esteemed officers, uncles, and elders.” These officers, most of whom were about the same age as Wei Fangyi, had many who were once Wei Fangyi’s soldiers. Wei Qin could basically name all of them. He would greet them as uncles or elders.

“It’s been a while, how have you been?”

“Very well!” Wei Qin replied with a subtle smile.

“Wei Qin! What happened with that batch of weapons last time?” Ge Jincheng asked gloomily, the tall and stout middle-aged man looking particularly aggrieved at this moment.

Wei Qin pursed his lips, feeling a little uneasy under Ge Jincheng’s gaze.

“Uncle Ge, I’ve been ill lately and am not too clear about it. I’ll ask when I get back.” If it had been someone else, Wei Qin would have quickly shifted the blame, but this man was Huo Beijiang, and he could not bear to do so.

Ge Jincheng’s eyes filled with even more resentment, “Wasn’t it you who personally approved the distribution?”

Wei Qin looked apologetic, “I’m really sorry, I think I must have been too ill recently.”

Everyone knew about his chronic illness, and how he had been so ill recently that he had trouble walking and had to use a wheelchair. Now that he brought it up, everyone began to look reproachfully at Ge Jincheng.

“I say, Old Ge, what’s the matter with you? That’s going too far!”

“I advise you not to take advantage of being older.”

“Be careful, or I’ll beat you up! Don’t you know how to take care of a sick person?”

“Being a bully, I’ve disliked you for a long time.”

Everyone reprimanded, causing Ge Jincheng to crumble into an even more embarrassing state.

Xi Liqun, wise to the situation, saw how Wei Qin was still protecting Huo Beijiang amidst all this, and couldn’t help but feel immensely amused.
