CHAPTER 1052: CHAPTER 1052: ADMITTING MISTAKES

Bai Xiao took a ride to an old building, deep in an alley, which was indeed hard to find.

After several intersections, she finally got directions, took several turns, walked in. The stairways of the building were all broken, the hallway was cluttered with all sorts of things, leaving barely enough space for one person to pass. Clothes and sheets were hanging everywhere, waving like the flags of dozens of countries.

Really left one speechless.

Upon reaching the third floor, she saw a man in a jacket outside the door. No need for confirmation, Bai Xiao could guess this man belonged to An Zhiyuan. His upright stance screamed military background, though Bai Xiao wondered if An Zhiyuan had broken any rules.

Seeing her sneakily peeking inside, the man sternly said, "Get lost if you have nothing to do here."

Bai Xiao was speechless. Did she look sneaky?

This ice-cold face really resembled An Zhiyuan’s.

As the leader, so are the followers.

"I’m looking for An Zhiyuan, I’m Bai Xiao."

Introducing herself should be enough, right?

The man flushed red, embarrassed.

This girl in front of him was clearly just a young lady, looking like merely a high school student, yet she turned out to be his boss’s wife.

Oh dear, the boss is really robbing the cradle!

You can’t blame him for lacking judgment.

"Sorry, the captain is inside, I’ll take you in."

He wished he could slap himself for being harsh to the young lady earlier for no reason.

The captain did instruct that his wife would be coming.

Oh captain, you’re making trouble for me.

You didn’t even clarify how your wife looked.

She’s so young.

Saying she’s a high schooler was already generous.

Whether she graduated from middle school is another question.

Look at that fair and tender face, those dark glowing eyes, and the ponytail, though her height is decent at 1.65 meters.

From every angle, top to bottom, left to right, she looks like she’s not even 20.

This is really misleading.

"Sister-in-law, I didn’t see clearly earlier."

Bai Xiao chuckled.

Seeing a big man blush and awkwardly wanting to apologize to her was quite amusing.

"It’s okay, many people think I look young, I don’t look like I’m over 20. Actually, there’s only a few years difference between me and your captain." She could imagine what the subordinates were thinking now.

Poor An Zhiyuan! It’s not that your wife dislikes you being old.

Anyway, as long as they meet, everyone thinks An Zhiyuan is definitely robbing the cradle.

Bai Xiao touched her face with some pride.

There’s really nothing to do about it, we just look young.

"Hehe, sister-in-law, really, you look so young. If most people saw you, they’d think you were a middle school student. Even if it were someone else, they wouldn’t expect you to be the famed doctor Bai.

You don’t know how famous you are with us.

Everyone knows you’re amazing. Daring enough to live and die together with our captain, that makes you our sister-in-law."

This legend has long become a picture in everyone’s mind.

Many soldiers dream of marrying a wife like doctor Bai. Doctor Bai has become a moonlight in their hearts.

Bai Xiao blushed, indeed a bit bashful from such praise.

Can she say she cheated?

Chuckled awkwardly.

Following them inside, as soon as they entered, they saw two people tied up tightly on the ground, like two boiled shrimps, curled up with pained expressions, and their mouths stuffed with cloth. Seeing the man come in, fear filled their eyes, and the sobbing sounds they made instantly fell silent.

They wished this man had never seen them.

The man sheepishly rubbed his head, using his big strong body to block Bai Xiao’s sight. "Sorry, Doctor Bai, sometimes we need extraordinary means. These two were not listening, so I taught them a lesson. To prevent them from interfering with our work, that’s why..."

Such a scene would make anyone think they were using some kind of means.

Ordinary people probably couldn’t accept it, especially since Doctor Bai is a doctor, which implies being meticulous, stern, and conservative.

Without some explanation, Doctor Bai might not treat them nicely.

Also feared Doctor Bai misunderstanding the captain.

Bai Xiao’s expression didn’t change, as if she didn’t see the two on the ground at all.

Still smiling brightly.

"Xiaoxiao, you’re here!"

An Zhiyuan had already heard the voices outside and opened the door.

Seeing his wife, he really missed her, didn’t expect there’s a real thing called missing someone like a lifetime in one day.

The tenderness and affection on his face almost dazzled the man’s eyes.

Rubbing his eyes in disbelief, is this still the captain of theirs who climbed out of hell?

Where did their captain’s coldness, arrogance, and ruthlessness go?

Could their captain be swapped just now?

This smiling face like a peach blossom in the spring breeze is An Zhiyuan?

An Zhiyuan glanced at his man, feeling quite disdainful. How come he looked silly today?

Usually, this guy looked dumb but was cunning inside, and very flexible in doing things, which is why he brought him.

Didn’t expect him to really turn dumb today. Couldn’t he see he was talking to his wife and didn’t bother to step aside?

Really lacked insight, seems like his training still had problems.

His judgment in people also had issues.

No, wait! When he first saw his wife, he instantly knew she was well-suited for him.

How come his judgment got worse later?

Little did the man know that his captain was contemplating how to deal with him later.

If he knew, he wouldn’t just stand there foolishly.

That would be asking for trouble.

An Zhiyuan noticed, this big fool was still staring at his wife in a daze, and became unhappy.

Coldly hummed.

This sound was like lightning on a clear day, immediately waking up the man, realizing the captain’s face didn’t look good, which meant a bad temper.

Bad temper means bad luck.

No one else here, better not end up on him.

Instantly got the hint.

"Captain, I’ll guard outside, make sure no one comes in! You and sister-in-law get busy, you get busy!" He slipped out quickly.

An Zhiyuan finally showed a smile, this kid finally understood his intention.

Bai Xiao almost burst into laughter.

What does An Zhiyuan want to do!
