“Do you really think that the internet does not dare to report news and conduct identity searches when it comes to the military base? Is that why Deputy Commander-in-Chief Wang is acting so fearlessly?”
“Threaten? When did I threaten you? Did anyone hear me threaten you?”
Zhong Nuannuan pointed at the security camera above. “Don’t you remember that you have a security camera here?”
Wang Gangyi gave it a look and smiled. “Oh, that. It malfunctioned long ago.”
When he saw Zhong Nuannuan smiling so happily, Wang Gangyi thought she must have been smiling in anger.
He continued, “Of course, you are allowed to make a complaint to the commander-in-chief upstairs. Although, please consider that I’ve been colleagues with the commander-in-chief for half a year. Do you think he will listen to the complaint of a future army wife he has never met over a colleague like me? I am completely capable of suing you in the military court for defaming a high ranking official.”
Zhong Nuannuan watched him act arrogantly as she sneered. Then, she turned away, unbridled.
Wang Gangyi was angered when he saw Zhong Nuannuan continue heading upstairs obstinately, acting as if nothing but a solid wall ahead would stop her. He shouted in a rage, “Stop her right now!”
The two guards immediately reached out to block her way when they saw this. Zhong Nuannuan lifted her hand and gave a vertical chop to the two hands blocking her path.
She did not use much strength, but both guards immediately let their hands down as they felt immense pain from the vicious force that had struck them.
Zhong Nuannuan made a run for it up the stairs while they were still reeling from the shock.
“Damn it! Did both of you forget to eat? Get her!”
The two guards came to their senses as they quickly ran up the stairs two to three steps at a time.
Unfortunately, they were too late.
By the time they had caught up to her, Zhong Nuannuan had already stepped into the office zone of the commander-in-chief.
There were only the offices of the commander-in-chief as well as the chief of staff on the sixth floor. It was guarded by special guards, but the guards from downstairs did not fear them. After all, the guards upstairs would not interfere with them capturing anyone without the specific order of the commander-in-chief.
Zhong Nuannuan stopped running when she reached the sixth floor and both guards immediately caught hold of her when they arrived at the sixth floor a moment later. One of them pulled her arms behind her while the other quickly took out a pair of handcuffs to cuff her up.
Zhong Nuannuan turned with her back facing both guards after making sure she had been cuffed up. She was not about to let them touch her again.
“Let’s go!”
The two guards were quite furious because they had not expected Zhong Nuannuan to escape from them twice. They acted rough with her as they shouted sternly, displaying their military prowess.
“What are the two of you doing?”
The few guards on the sixth floor had seen Zhong Nuannuan the previous night. She was an important guest of the commander-in-chief and they had also heard that she was the fiancée of Director-General Chi. Thus, they immediately approached Zhong Nuannuan when they saw her being handcuffed.
“This person is trespassing on our headquarters when she was stopped by our commander-in-chief, yet she had the gall to continue intruding as she headed toward the sixth floor. Our commander-in-chief instructed us to arrest her.”
The two guards ignored the sixth-floor guards after they were done with their explanation and shouted at Zhong Nuannuan again, “Let’s go right now!”
“Stop!”
The sixth-floor guards immediately stopped the two of them and asked, “Why did you say she trespassed? Which restricted zone has she trespassed on?”
“The deputy commander-in-chief found her sneaking into headquarters as she attempted to get to the commander-in-chief’s floor. This was why we stopped her to question her. We didn’t expect her to reply to us rudely and insult the deputy commander-in-chief. We also weren’t able to stop her from pushing us away forcefully before she ran up here quickly.”
“This is a highly suspicious person. I need to bring her away for interrogation.”
Wang Gangyi had walked up the stairs while the two guards were explaining the situation.
