From BOSS to Canon Fodder: She is Currently Out of Service!-Chapter 61 - 37: Scandal Turmoil (Part 2)

"Look, someone reported that you are hooking up with a girl from the poor planet..." The woman sent a chat screenshot to Liu Shiyi, "Although I don’t care about this matter... However, if these rumors spread widely, it won’t be good for you or her."

Liu Shiyi glanced at the chat content, his brow furrowing deeply. If he weren’t the main character in this event, he might have time to enjoy the show, but the problem is that this matter involves him and has reached his wife, which makes it a bit serious...

"Who sent it?" Liu Shiyi asked with furrowed brows, but he didn’t rush to explain anything. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

The two of them have been dating since student days and understand each other very well. He knows Mengmeng’s temper; if she were really angry, she wouldn’t actively contact him. She would definitely have taken swift actions to settle all divorce proceedings, just waiting for him to come and leave their home with nothing...

"Hmm... Not clear, it was sent by one of your subordinates." The woman took a small sip of a hot drink and spoke to Liu Shiyi while looking at the medical case, "However, I also asked your subordinate, and he said someone anonymously sent it to him..."

"Anonymous?" Liu Shiyi felt a headache coming on, as Meng said, if the matter escalates, it can be really troublesome, "Aiming at me?"

The closest gesture he had with Su Jiameng was when he carried her like a sack. However, the photo in the screenshot was taken from another angle — he was handing Su Jiameng oral nutrient liquid. Due to the angle of the sneak photo, the two seemed very close.

Looking at this photo, he felt fortunate for his wife’s trust in him, otherwise, had she been successfully instigated and blown the matter open, he would definitely be caught in a storm! If he were single, spreading unfounded rumors, nobody could say anything. But the problem is, he recently dragged his wife to register!

As a married Alliance Soldier, having a wife at home and being entangled with another woman, if the charge is confirmed, being suspended and writing self-criticism is very normal, more serious cases could involve demotion and fines... He wouldn’t be able to lift his head in front of colleagues... Of course, more importantly, it would hurt his relationship with Meng.

"Probably not, it seems someone is targeting that girl." Zhu Mengtong raised her eyebrows and said, "There’s also a possibility she’s been implicated by you."

What’s the difference between saying it and not saying it? Liu Shiyi felt slightly upset, but he didn’t hear any noises from surrounding people, these matters were being dealt with privately. As long as he finds the person who took the sneak photos and spread rumors, it should be fine.

"Any suspects?" Zhu Mengtong stirred her hot drink, watched Liu Shiyi’s frustrated expression with amusement, and asked with a slight smile, "Recently, have you or that girl offended anyone?"

Liu Shiyi thought about it, he was inclined to suspect his subordinates deliberately causing trouble for him, but the possibility was too low, those little rascals had already been disciplined by him. So it left only someone wanting to deal with Su Jiameng... But who on this warship has the idleness to make trouble for a woman from a poor planet and involve her with a lieutenant?

"I can’t think of anyone." Liu Shiyi answered honestly, he had no experience dealing with these things.

Zhu Mengtong raised her eyebrows and said, "If that’s the case, you could ask that girl, she might have some information."

Liu Shiyi answered with a bitter smile, "I should ask, but now might not be a good time, she’s probably too busy to deal with this."

Zhu Mengtong recalled her conversation with her husband a few days ago, Liu Shiyi spoke in a very emotional tone, saying if his subordinates could work as hard as that. She secretly suspected, "Is her training intensity still so high?"

"Yes, yesterday’s training intensity seemed to be higher." Liu Shiyi asked her, "Mengmeng, is there anything unusual?"

Zhu Mengtong leaned back slightly, resting on the chair, and said leisurely, "There are plenty of unusual things. According to what you said, she has always used such high-intensity training to push herself every day. But according to the development of the human body, such behavior is very harmful, without nutrient liquid, her body would collapse quickly... Have you seen her miss any training days all these days? Or did the officer Li You bring her from the poor planet and provide her with valuable nutrient liquid?"

Speaking of this, Liu Shiyi also realized something was off. Anything associated with Mecha Masters, especially training-specific nutrient liquid, is priced prohibitively high for ordinary people. He hands oral nutrient liquid to Su Jiameng during training to alleviate her body’s discomfort somewhat and prevent her from suddenly dying in the training room.
