Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself-Chapter 986 - 999: Even Heaven Is Helping Them

"How do you know someone from Captain Mu’s household?" Sun Lifang asked suspiciously when she saw Huang Xiaoyu waving familiarly at An Ran.

In her impression, wasn’t this sister from Chief Guard Huang’s family quite fond of Captain Mu?

"Sister-in-law Sun, why do you say that I can’t know her? To be honest, I just came from Captain Mu’s house," Huang Xiaoyu said with a smile.

"Just came from Captain Mu’s house? Isn’t Captain Mu at the exercises?"

Li Dajun had been at the exercise site lately, and a few days ago, when it was said that Mu Xingfeng was suddenly given a mission, Sun Lifang quietly rejoiced.

Over the years, during every exercise, her husband always seemed to be overshadowed by Mu Xingfeng. Even though both held the captain’s position, Mu Xingfeng’s tactical strategies were always preemptive, enabling him to make quick and accurate judgments. Standing next to him, Li Dajun always seemed dim in comparison.

This time, with Mu Xingfeng sent on a mission, Li Dajun finally had a chance to shine. Thinking of the post-exercise redeployment, Sun Lifang felt like even heaven was helping them this time.

"He went, I thought Captain Mu was at home, but it turned out he left," Huang Xiaoyu said with a hint of regret.

Sun Lifang saw the look on Huang Xiaoyu’s face, a glint flashed in her eyes as she watched Liu Hu and An Ran head towards the gate, shaking her head in amusement, "In our Guard Team, it’s rare for captains to be assigned guards. Didn’t your brother get a guard only when he became Chief Guard?"

"True, Captain Mu is quite a figure, despite being just a major, his accomplishments are not few."

When Mu Xingfeng’s achievements were mentioned, Huang Xiaoyu beamed with pride, as if talking about her own man.

"Hey, why do you think Captain Mu hasn’t been promoted with all his accomplishments?"

This was also a concern for Sun Lifang. Li Dajun had many years of experience and had held the captain position for seven to eight years. Although capable, he was still far behind Mu Xingfeng.

But because he had been in this position for seven to eight years, if he didn’t seize this chance to move up, he might remain a captain for life.

A captain in the Guard Team was just a section-level cadre, and upon transferring to a local position, he would be downgraded and unlikely to find a good job.

"How would I know? Captain Mu is young, maybe they want to keep an eye on him a bit longer," Huang Xiaoyu said unsure, knowing little about such matters in the Guard Team. Still, she understood that with high accomplishments, promotion was just a matter of time. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

"That’s true. How old is Captain Mu anyway, is he twenty-eight yet?"

"Just turned twenty-seven," Huang Xiaoyu replied.

"A twenty-seven-year-old captain, we don’t have many like those in the Empire, do we? By the way, I heard his girlfriend is studying at Nan University, could he be holding back his promotion for her? I heard if he gets promoted, he might have to transfer to another Guard Team," Sun Lifang speculated as she watched Huang Xiaoyu’s expression. Seeing a flash of jealousy in Huang Xiaoyu’s eyes when mentioning Mu Xingfeng staying in the Nan’an Guard Team for his girlfriend, Sun Lifang continued.

"Sister-in-law Sun, who’s been telling you these things? Why do men join the army? Which man would sacrifice his bright future for a woman?"

"That’s true, as the saying goes, those who don’t want to be a general are not good soldiers, and a man like Captain Mu certainly isn’t one to act indefinitely out of kindness," Sun Lifang said, laughing and covering her mouth...
