Marrying My Bestie's Ferocious Brother - He Calls Me His Baby!-Chapter 45: Abusing Your Power for a Woman!

Gu Yanshen looked at her calmly, as if watching a clumsy actor.

"A spy?"

His voice was soft, yet carried an undeniable weight, abruptly cutting off Sun Li’s clamor.

Sun Li clutched at her last straw, nodding vigorously.

"Yes! A spy! Mr. Gu, you can’t be fooled by her..."

Gu Yanshen interrupted her.

"From which country?"

Sun Li was stunned.

"I... how would I know!"

Gu Yanshen asked again.

"Who is her contact? What’s the code name? What is the number?"

Sun Li’s face started to pale, her eyes evasive.

"She... she must be hiding! Hidden very deep!"

Gu Yanshen continued to press, his speech not fast, but each word like a nail, driving into Sun Li’s defenses.

"Contact code, meeting place, specific mission. Speak."

"I don’t know! How would I know these things!"

Sun Li was baffled by his barrage of questions, completely flustered, could only wave her arms around aimlessly.

"But I just know! Intuition! My intuition tells me it’s her!"

Gu Yanshen’s eyes turned cold.

"In the army, we only talk about evidence, not your intuition."

"Your intuition is not a reason to arrest any comrade."

At this moment, Sister in law Xiao Liu was the first to rush out from the crowd, like a hen protecting her chicks, standing in front of Lin Wan Yi.

"Sun Li! What nonsense are you spouting!"

She pointed to her own smooth cheek, her voice raised with anger. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"Open your dog eyes and look! Would a spy use her precious medicine to treat the rash on my face? My face was cured by Sister Wanyi!"

Another slightly plump military wife also stepped forward.

"Yes! Would a spy distribute such delicious mung bean soup for us to drink? Mung beans are so precious now! We were tired from rehearsing, and it was Sister Wanyi who brought us one pot after another!"

"Would a spy be so patient, teaching us dance moves one by one? Even singing by herself to accompany us? Weren’t you the one who sabotaged the cassette tape?"

"Sister Wanyi never said a bad word about you all the way through! It’s your own wicked mind, unable to see others do well!"

"Exactly! Your own ability is lacking, causing trouble during rehearsals, and now you attack others because you’re outdone! Your heart must be black!"

The military wives, one word after another, instantly drowned Sun Li.

The support accumulated over these days, at this moment, transformed into the strongest shield protecting Lin Wan Yi.

Sun Li was so terrified by the situation that she kept retreating, her face as pale as paper.

"You... you were all bribed by her! You’re all in it together!"

"Slap!"

A crisp, loud slap struck fiercely on Sun Li’s face.

This slap was full of force, causing Sun Li to stagger and fall to the ground in a mess.

Everyone looked on in shock, Wang Xiu’e had somehow already been standing there, her face covered with a layer of frost.

She had just come out from a meeting at headquarters, coincidentally running into this crazy display of public insults.

"Mrs... Mrs. Wang..."

Sun Li clutched her burning cheek, utterly stunned, full of disbelief.

Wang Xiu’e looked down at her from above, her voice cold enough to drop ice shards.

"Sun Li, you’re very bold!"

"In the military district compound, you openly slander the family of a combat hero as a spy, what are you aiming for? To shake our entire division’s morale?"

This accusation was hundreds, if not thousands of times heavier than the one Sun Li had pinned on Lin Wan Yi.

Sun Li was so scared that her spirit almost left her, not even caring about her aching face, kneeling on the ground and bowing repeatedly.

"I didn’t! Madame Wang, I really didn’t! I was just confused for a moment! My mouth was filthy, I spoke nonsense!"

Just then, a man came running over hurriedly from a distance.

"Oh dear, what’s going on here!"

The newcomer was none other than Sun Li’s husband, Sun Zhiqiang.

He saw his wife kneeling on the ground, and Gu Yanshen and Wang Xiu’e with cold faces, and immediately his legs went half weak.

He pulled Sun Li up, squeezing out a miserable smile towards Wang Xiu’e and Gu Yanshen.

"Mrs. Wang, Mr. Gu, you both are broad-minded!"

"My wife, she just has long hair and short knowledge, her mind was clouded with pig’s fat! She was just talking nonsense, please don’t take it to heart!"

He pushed Sun Li.

"Hurry up and apologize to Mr. Lin!"

Sun Li, crying and wailing, wanted to go and hug Lin Wan Yi’s leg.

"Mr. Lin, I’m wrong, I’m really wrong..."

Gu Yanshen moved one step aside without a change in expression, completely shielding Lin Wan Yi behind him, separating her from Sun Li.

Sun Zhiqiang, feeling a bit embarrassed, turned back to Wang Xiu’e.

"Mrs. Wang, you see, she knows she’s wrong. These quarrels between women, arguing at the head of the bed and making up at the end, aren’t considered big issues, please be lenient..."

"Silence!"

Wang Xiu’e sharply interjected him.

"Sun Zhiqiang! You think this is just a trivial argument between women?"

"She’s shaking the stability of our entire family compound! Is this what you call a trivial matter?"

"In my view, not only does she have issues with her thinking, your ideological awareness, Sun Zhiqiang, also needs improvement!"

Sun Zhiqiang was scolded into silence, his head bowed deeply.

Wang Xiu’e didn’t look at him at all, instead turning to Lin Wan Yi, her face instantly softening with a kind smile, taking her hand.

"Xiao Lin, you’ve been wronged."

She looked around at the military wives, her voice loud.

"Everyone has seen, some people have serious problems with their ideologies! They cannot stand seeing talented, capable comrades within our military families!"

"They believe that Xiao Lin’s responsibility for the finale program is corrupting us, yet I want to see whether it is a wonderful program that can boost morale, or whether her kind of malicious rumors can shake the military!"

Wang Xiu’e took a deep breath, as if she’d made some decision, announcing a piece of news that shocked everyone.

"This matter is extremely serious!"

"I will personally report to the command! Invite Chief Gu to personally come and watch our cultural performance!"

"I also want to let certain people know, we will not allow heroes to bleed, nor will we allow the families of heroes to shed tears!"

That is none other than Gu Yanshen’s biological father!

This is no longer an internal conflict within the family compound; this has gone directly to the top!

Sun Zhiqiang’s legs went soft, hardly able to stand.

While Sun Li, collapsed on the ground, upon hearing these words, rolled her eyes and actually fainted out of fright.

No one paid her any attention.

From a distance, two security officers on patrol had already noticed the commotion and quickly ran over.

"Mr. Gu!"

Gu Yanshen didn’t spare a glance at Sun Li on the ground.

"Comrades from the security department."

The leading official immediately stood at attention.

"Yes!"

Gu Yanshen’s voice carried no trace of human emotion, only the coldness and decisiveness of a soldier.

"Sun Li, ignoring organizational discipline, openly spreading words to shake the army’s morale, fabricating facts, maliciously slandering the family of an active-duty officer."

"The nature is extremely vile, the impact is extremely bad."

"According to military security regulations, I order you, detain her immediately and file a case for investigation."

"I want to see a complete interrogation report and opinion on the handling on my desk before dawn tomorrow."

"Yes! We will complete the task!"

The security officer raised his voice without any hesitation.

Two soldiers came forward and lifted the limp-as-a-noodle Sun Li from both sides.

Sun Li was jolted awake by the cold arms, beginning to struggle madly.

"No! You can’t arrest me! I didn’t do it!"

"Gu Yanshen! This is a personal vendetta! You are abusing your power for a woman!"

"Let go of me! Ah——!"
