She tried to be patient and finish the work session. When the other two were about to go to lunch, she couldn't bear it anymore and spoke up: "If there's anything wrong with you two, just say it straight. Don't delay my afternoon work." Vuong Le raised her head and spoke stiffly: "What do you call work? Didn't you come here to follow Captain Tong?" Truong Thuy also chimed in: "Relying on your boss's support, you forced the business manager to hand over all his savings to you! He's about to get married, do you still feel ashamed?" Mai Tu Khanh asked: "Did Tong Dinh Nien say those words to you, or Tu San?" Vuong Phuong said viciously: "Who doesn't know your name in the entire military region? Nurse Tu and Captain Tong are truly talented and beautiful women. People have applied for marriage a long time ago, but you keep clinging to your superiors and causing chaos, not allowing people to marry you!" Truong Thuy crossed her arms and chimed in: "Captain Tong sees you as his younger sister, asking for help, giving money, but to encounter the ungrateful type, refusing to see anyone living peacefully is unpleasant!" The soldiers The surrounding area began to gossip. "Doctor Mai looks beautiful and capable, why is he like that?" "She's just a country girl. Seeing that Captain Tong is famous for being kind, what's the point if he doesn't try to keep it tight?" More and more people gathered. In the crowd, Mai Tu Khanh saw Tong Dinh Nien. Next to him, there was someone constantly comforting him: "Businessman Tong, you are so gentle. If it were me, I would have chased that kind of person away long ago. He slandered and specialized in sabotage." "That's right. I heard that the Tong family raised her, yet she abandoned her two old grandparents in the countryside and went to the city to live happily on her own." "That kind of money-grubbing, ungrateful girl should be forced to write a report of criticism and post it everywhere!" Mai Tu Khanh took a deep breath. took a breath, looked straight at Tong Dinh Nien. "Tong Dinh Nien, are you saying these words? Do you dare come out here to confront me?"Tong Dinh Nien quickly reacted, smiling helplessly: "Tu Khanh, I've liked you for so many years, it's true that I'm at fault for doing something wrong to you." "As long as you feel a little better, I'll accept whatever you want to say."That face full of affection made the crowd The people around were moved: "It's true that women love too much and hate, but Captain Tong is the real man!" "A sour lemon like her, the Captain doesn't need to be too normal, in return I don't care..." At this moment, Mai Tu Khanh no longer felt heartbroken, only felt nauseous. Faced with that type of person, if you argue back, you're lowering yourself. She took a deep breath and smiled contemptuously: "Tong Dinh Nien, who said I like you? Can you be less confident?" "My fiance is ten thousand times better than you!" Tong Dinh Nien was stunned and frowned: "Tu Khanh, where did you get your fiance? Didn't you come to the Tuong Nam military region because of me?" "Don't say something out of anger that will ruin your reputation, who will dare to marry you in the future..." A voice said. The man coldly interrupted: "I'll take it." All eyes simultaneously looked in the direction of the sound. A man in a straight military uniform walked up to Mai Tu Khanh, his voice gentle, with a smile: "I got off work late." The atmosphere was dead silent. He calmly spoke: "Introducing everyone, I am Mai Tu Khanh's fiance." The whole group of people seemed to be struck by lightning, simultaneously taking a breath of cold air. Tong Dinh Nien could hardly believe his ears: "Commander Chu, what are you kidding? You and Tu Khanh just met yesterday?" "It's true that we just met yesterday," Chu Tri Luat calmly, "but since Tu Khanh came to Tuong Nam, my father has chosen her to be his daughter-in-law. This morning we have submitted the marriage registration application."

Already?! Tong Dinh Nien was dumbfounded, his fist clenched until it made a cracking sound. He reminded: "Group leader Chu, you need to think carefully about marriage. Mai Tu Khanh, you don't know her..." He deliberately made it difficult to speak, then sighed: "If it's an arrangement from above, then we can't say more." In just a few sentences, he secretly informed everyone that: Mai Tu Khanh is a problem, if it weren't for the leader's rescue, Chu Tri Luat wouldn't have paid attention to her. Immediately, everyone's eyes looking at Chu Tri Luat became full of sympathy. Someone who was not afraid to cause trouble spoke up: "Commander Chu, we understand your filial piety. But what Captain Tong said is right, marriage is for life, don't make yourself suffer for the sake of repaying a favor." Immediately followed by a series of supporting comments: "That's right, in the past, Mai Tu Khanh was clinging to Captain Tong, now she probably just wants to climb high!" "There are still so many good people in the military region, why do you need to choose someone with a 'special relationship'." Hearing this, his face turned pale. Mai Tu Khanh became cold. She didn't expect that just a few words from Tong Dinh Nien's mouth could make these people so poisonous. Will Chu Tri Luat believe them? Thinking so, she raised her head and met the gentle eyes of the man next to her. In front of everyone, Chu Tri Luat gently held Mai Tu Khanh's hand: "Perhaps you misunderstood, comrades, that I fell in love with Tu Khanh at first sight, so I actively pursued her. I was afraid that the night would be too long, so I decided to propose." His eyes turned to Tong Dinh Nien, cold and emotionless: "I remember that Captain Tong is twenty-five years old this year, right? At the age of eighteen, he joined the army, and in recent years he has rarely come home, all the time. Tu Khanh takes care of all family matters for you, right?" "A girl with no name or status has still taken care of your parents for seven years. As a human being, who would hide a wedding in the army, then turn around and smear someone for being unfilial?" Chu Tri Luat's words made Tong Dinh Nien's face immediately change like a color palette.
