Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander

Chapter 72: Chapter 72: Tit for Tat

It's already autumn now. Bai Fanglan is wearing a long white coat with black pants and brown leather shoes, her

long hair draped over her shoulders, and a white scarf around her neck, dressing with a lot of poise. A tall soldier

stands beside her, evidently her partner.

Bai Fanglan sees Sun Chan and Gu Junming sitting together, and a sudden burst of anger erupts from her chest.

The man next to her says, "You look unwell, what's wrong?"

Bai Fanglan shakes her head, forcing a smile, "It’s nothing."

Since the last gathering, after not seeing him there, she completely gave up on Gu Junming, and all her love

turned to ashes, leaving only hatred. Initially, Bai Chuan wanted to introduce Yan Kai to her, but after calling Mr.

Yan several times and subtly mentioning it, Mr. Yan rejected it.

Bai Chuan realized that Mr. Yan was dissatisfied with Bai Fanglan, anger filling his heart, but there was nothing he

could do.

He then arranged for Bai Fanglan to go on a blind date with Wang Hu, the son of the battalion's staff officer,

Wang.

Wang Hu has been in the army for many years, thirty-one years old, and already at deputy regiment level

because he was busy with work and never considered marriage, his family elders were very anxious, urging him

constantly.

Wang Hu met Bai Fanglan, felt they were quite compatible, and they started seeing each other.

Bai Fanglan restrained much of her character. Their relationship was pretty good, and both families were pleased

with this outcome, but Bai Fanglan’s heart was agitated.

Wang Wu's attitude towards marriage was more like that of the older generation, where feelings weren't

important; marrying was for having children and living life. So his dating felt more like carrying out a duty.

Bai Fanglan was incompatible with him, but considering his status and family background were stronger than Gu

Junming’s, she could only force herself to maintain the relationship.

They originally planned to dine at a better restaurant, but passing by this small shop, Bai Fanglan suddenly

remembered meeting Gu Junming here last tand suggested dining here.

Unexpectedly, upon entering, she saw Gu Junming and Sun Chan together, their attitude so intimate.

Bai Fanglan’s heart suddenly ached, almost suffocating her. Indeed, she lost to Sun Chan!

Sun Chan saw Bai Fanglan and remembered Zhao Xiuxia bringing people to cause trouble for her, nearly selling

her to Xiong’er Ridge, and her face turned cold.

Gu Junming stood up at this moment to greet them.

Bai Fanglan smiled as she introduced, "This is my partner, Wang Hu, just a grandson of a friend of my

grandfather's, this one is..."

Gu Junming smiled and said, "This is my partner, Sun Chan."

Sun Chan's face heated up, Gu Junming naturally understood her panic and shyness, tightly holding her hand,

Sun Chan struggled, but he had no intention of letting go.

Wang Hu greeted Sun Chan politely, his attitude very gentle. Since the restaurant was crowded, the waiter

arranged for them to sit together.

Bai Fanglan’s heart was filled with mixed emotions, wondering why someone as smart as Gu Junming could be

tricked by her, how foolish! She suddenly thought if Gu Junming had been distant because he had already been

seduced by Sun Chan, having to keep a distance from herself?

Thinking this, Bai Fanglan felt somewhat relieved. This scheming girl, shameless!

Bai Fanglan was determined to embarrass Sun Chan, so she smiled at Sun Chan, "You two haven't known each

other for long; when did you start together? I didn’t expect it to be so quick. Could it be...there’s something |

don’t know about? Sun Chan, you are truly bold, even more fashionable than us city girls."

Gu Junming frowned, saying nothing, while Wang Hu earnestly ordered dishes, not noticing what she was saying.

Sun Chan calmly responded, "Why do your words sound strange to me? According to you, it's like | used some

kind of plot."

Bai Fanglan laughed, "See, | didn’t say anything, why are you so angry?"

"If others hear it, they might get angry too, because listening to Doctor Bai’s words suggests | did some

shameful things, forcing Gu Junming to be with me? Is this what you mean?" Sun Chan harbored considerable

hatred towards Bai Fanglan. If it weren't for Wang Hu’s presence here, she would have wanted to slap her, and

naturally wouldn't hold back.

Wang Hu had just finished ordering and noticed Sun Chan’s angry expression. This delicate-looking girl speaks so

sharply, is there sprior conflict?

He looked at Bai Fanglan and gently asked, "You originally knew each other?"

Bai Fanglan pressed her lips and said with a smile, "Yes, Sun Chan is a nurse at our hospital, not very educated,

but she does well. Unfortunately, her mother and sister ccausing trouble, saying they wanted her back in

the village to marry, but Sun Chan refused, so she went outside to work. Turns out she found Gu Junming. This

time, your partner is much better than the village farmer. Your mother will certainly be happy and won't make

trouble again."

Sun Chan's heart burned with anger, Bai Fanglan’s mouth is so vicious! Indirectly pointing out that Sun Chan is a

woman who worships materialism, abandoning her originally arranged marriage upon finding better conditions.

Sure enough, hearing Bai Fanglan’s words, Wang Hu glanced at Sun Chan with doubt.

Gu Junming still said nothing, tightening his grip on Sun Chan's hand.

He didn’t want to quarrel with women; more importantly, he knew when he and Sun Chan marry, they would face

rumors and many might attack her background and identity. He hoped Sun Chan could let go of these constraints

in her heart.

Sun Chan smiled at Bai Fanglan, "I think Doctor Bai misunderstood; that person wasn’t my partner. My adoptive

mother and sister wanted to sellto a lazy man in the village for five hundred yuan. | wasn’t willing, so they

brought him hto humiliate me, trying to forcefully resolve things. | had no choice but to escape from home.

This wasn’t a good marriage; otherwise, | wouldn't have kept fleeing. You can ask Deputy Battalion Commander

Gu, as he was the one who encounteredwhen | escaped.”

"| see... | wasn’t aware of this..." Bai Fanglan bit her lip and said with a smile, "Consider it my misunderstanding

of you." She didn’t expect Sun Chan to directly spill all the family ugliness, leaving her with nothing to say.

Sun Chan smiled, "I'm rather curious; Doctor Bai has always taken an interest in my affairs, even informing my

adoptive mother when | was hiding in X City, urging them to catchback. Why is it that you weren't aware of

this matter then?"

"I didn’t!" Bai Fanglan subconsciously raised her voice. What's this woman trying to do, trap her? What would

Wang Hu think?

Turning around, Wang Hu was also looking at her in confusion, Bai Fanglan forced a smile, "It’s all a

misunderstanding, not like that."
