Chapter 174: Chapter 175: How Dare You Punish My Elder Sister-in-Law

Sheng Ning looked at Wu Youli with the warmest smile and whispered, “Cheer up! When we get back from training, I’ll cook you something tasty. My little fruit treats are really good.”

“Thank you!” Wu Youli thought about the little fruit treats Zhao Feifei had snatched from her before, and she felt a deep sense of longing as she nodded firmly at Sheng Ning.

Zhang Hongmei looked dejected among the crowd, never glancing at Sheng Ning from start to finish.

“You can go back now. Do you want to be punished again?” the instructor asked impatiently.

“Instructor, I’m leaving right now.” As Sheng Ning turned around, his eyes swept over Zhang Hongmei, and he revealed a helpless smile.

Dai Bin was walking back from the women’s dormitory, angry the whole way. He was sulking at himself, feeling that the Captain had been right—he really couldn’t lead troops! Otherwise, why would he be training such a bunch of bastards?

Calling the women bastards wasn’t nice to hear, but he couldn’t think of a better word that fit.

An old soldier from the company called out to Dai Bin from behind.

“What’s up?” Dai Bin asked impatiently. “Speak up if you have something to say; just spit it out if you have to.”

“Are you really going to punish the elder sister-in-law?” the old soldier asked with a hopeful look.

“Of course! I am stern and impartial. Even if the Captain came to me, I wouldn’t admit I was wrong.” Dai Bin puffed out his chest proudly.

“But she’s the elder sister-in-law. What if the Captain finds out…” Then their fourth squad would be doomed. Just thinking about the monthly training competitions among the four squads in the group made their teeth chatter.

“The Captain isn’t one to favor his own!”

“But I heard the Captain is really scared of his wife.”

“Don’t talk nonsense.” Dai Bin snorted coldly, proudly saying, “The Captain is a war hero, a Living Yama on the battleground who makes enemies tremble in fear. How could he possibly be afraid of his wife?”

“You’ve never had a wife, so you wouldn’t know.” Speaking like someone with experience, he said, “My wife is fat and dark, and even I am afraid of her, let alone the elder sister-in-law.”

“That’s because you can’t beat your wife.” Dai Bin retorted stubbornly.

The man looked at Dai Bin as if he were looking at a piece of wood. “Who says I can’t beat her? I just don’t want to—I deliberately let her win. It’s not easy getting married these days! It’s not easy for her being alone at home. Even if she has many faults, I will put up with them. Because she is my wife, after all!”

“What are you trying to say?” In Dai Bin’s eyes, the upright Captain would absolutely never be afraid of his wife.

“What I’m saying is, my wife is so difficult and I still cherish her. If I could marry someone like the elder sister-in-law, wouldn’t I treat her like she was gold, scared of her melting in my mouth or breaking in my hand!” The old comrade was truly frustrated with such a blockhead and shouted, “I say even heroes can’t win over beauties, what a dummy.”

Dai Bin’s face turned from black to blue, then white, then red. He rolled up his sleeves and threw a punch. “What did you call me?”

“You heard wrong. How could I insult you! I’m just worried. Hehehe…” Damn it, this blockhead had really annoyed him. He almost forgot, this was his superior.

With such a dense superior, how were they going to get through the days ahead?

Dai Bin was just putting on a show just now; he hadn’t intended to really hold a grudge. He continued patrolling, truly a bit scared at heart.

There wasn’t a single person in the regiment who wasn’t afraid of the Captain getting angry.

“Hold on, you punishing the elder sister-in-law to do push-ups is one thing, but isn’t it a bit too much to lock up the deputy squad leader’s sister in confinement?” The Captain was the Living Yama, while the deputy squad leader was a Madman!
