After The Breakup, I Became The Marshal’s Wife

 

Chapter 92

 

Not even two days after this meeting, Shi Nian heard that the Wu family had kicked Bai Zihan out of the house.

Of course, the rumors were not widespread, probably because the Wu family was afraid that if they were on Starnet, they would be scolded for not having any human feelings, and did not care about their grandchildren. Of course, it is also possible that the Wu family already had the perfect story ready.

But it didn’t matter to Shi Nian, as he’d been soaking up in the lab whenever he could lately.

Occasionally, he would also contact Mr. Zhou Lao.

In contrast to the other students who were trying to improve their physical strength, Shi Nian was much more relaxed in this regard. He used this time to read more materials, and Zhou Xinyun would occasionally come over to sit with him when he was tired of running.

Then the two of them would probe and discuss some issues.

“You really should have done dual studies together.” Zhou Xinyun’s eyes shone brightly, “It’s such a waste of your talent to only study potions.”

He was not interested in anything else, but as soon as one mentioned mech building, he was instantly a different person.

He had been studying with Mr Zhou since he was a child, and he had taken more classes than Shi Nian, so he had a lot of knowledge in his head. With him, Shi Nian could reduce the frequency of going to see Mr. Zhou.

But Lu Bo Ting, on the other hand, had not called back in a long time.

This was normal.

After all, when things are tense on the front line, you have to be on a tight schedule to eat, let alone anything else.

However, it seems that he has been busy recently, and he didn’t even call back when there was an ‘accident’ on Shi Nian’s end. Suddenly, he remembered:

“Xue Chi, have the two Zerg not been active recently?”

Xue Chi had set Shi Nian’s messages to priority, so, as soon as he received it, he immediately replied: “There has been no movement for a few days. Why?”

No, but he felt there was something wrong.

Lu Bo Ting could call back after he burned down the bathroom. This time, there was a lot of commotion, but he did not say anything…

Just as he was thinking, the class bell rang over there.

Zhou Xinyun immediately got up and said, “I’ll go back to class first.”

Shi Nian also hurriedly got up and ran to the class, not caring about the fleeting feeling that he had just had but couldn’t quite catch.

The competition couldn’t interfere with class, even though the students’ resistance to sports had recently increased their enthusiasm for studying.

They couldn’t wait to have classes, and they didn’t want to exercise.

One female guide even made snacks to bring over to share.

“I used to be afraid of going to the kitchen and didn’t want to go there at all. But now, as long as I think of being able to occupy the time for exercise, I feel that cooking is the happiest thing in the world. ”

“It’s true, preferences are made by comparison.”

“It’s all in the setting.”

Shi Nian: “It’s pretty tasty.” He gave a thumbs up and a nod of approval.

Others”……”

“Ugh, it’s only Shi Nian who is not panicking in the slightest.”

“After all, he used to be able to run twenty laps every day just to get out of wearing a school uniform.”

“Not me, I can’t wait to stay at school to train on weekends, so I can avoid that brain-dead ex-boyfriend who wants to eat his way back.”

This is the same Xiaomu whom he had informed of his boyfriend’s scumbag ways.

When he heard this, Shi Nian said, “After all, you have to understand that he was dumped by the girlfriend and now wants to come back.”

“What, being dumped?” The guide said, looking at Shi Nian, “Didn’t they just break up?”

Shi Nian was even more surprised than he was , “You think he broke up with the one outside, and then came back to you? Don’t think about it. He was dumped. I went to the party that day and met him. I saw him with his new girlfriend, and in a moment of kindness, I told his new girlfriend’s grandfather that he was in two boats. ”

The guide was furious, “Fine, he was still lying to me at a time like this!”

Everyone quickly persuaded him not to be angry. Now that he knows, the scumbag should stay away.

He couldn’t help but look at Shi Nian again, “Brother Shi, as expected of you, the scumbag nemesis.”

“Ji Yiqing ruffled our brother Shi’s feathers, and now all the scumbags in the world have to cry.”

“Go, go, go. How can you still mention Ji Yiqing! Don’t be disgusting! ”

The crowd joked and laughed as they finished their snacks and got ready for class.

By Saturday, there was an intensive training session. The students organised it themselves, so one could choose to go or not.

But Shi Nian’s group was going, so he had to come over too.

Zhou Xinyun immediately came too.

While Zhang Jingkai and Feng Chu Yu were working on new tactics, the guides were discussing mecha building.

The two sides could be said to not interfere with each other.

Once the discussion was over, it was just a matter of telling Shi Nian the results before they entered the field.

This was something they had recently discovered. It was simply easy to move along with Shi Nian after giving him a run down.

Not only does he not need to be supervised, but he can also take care of Zhou Xinyun. They sometimes felt that it was only eight of them on the team, and they didn’t have to worry about the other two at all.

Shi Nian’s presence was also low, almost non-existent, and didn’t disturb them at all, but when you looked back, the man was definitely there. ”

Honestly, bringing a robot isn’t even this worry-free.” The commander couldn’t help but say.

Chu Fengyu also smiled and said, “That’s right! Haha! ”

Next to him, Zhang Jingkai was speechless, saying that if it weren’t for the fact that this was a competition between students, it would have been considered a touchdown. In order not to make them look too bad by relying on a guide, or to stand out too much in terms of strength, Shi Nian could have done all their work by himself.

However, since they began to suspect that Shi Nian and his fan were one and the same, he and Yan Huaxin could not figure out why Lu Bo Ting was willing to battle out a few games together from time to time, even though he clearly said that he was a guide.

It’s not at all what is speculated outside, it’s probably just that they lived together and decided to have a few rounds when they met.

If it were anyone else, they would not dare ask this kind of thing to Marshal Lu, but Shi Nian certainly looked like he would dare.

The fact that he is now a beautiful fighter, he must have been getting guidance from Marshal Lu!

The map organized inside the school was very simple and not troublesome. Although many obstacles were deliberately laid out, it wasn’t that difficult.

After discussing a problem with Zhou Xinyun, Shi Nian said this to him in passing, “So when the time comes to really compete in the race, you might not have it as easy as you do now.”

Zhou Xinyun nodded, “I’ll practice my stamina.”

He was a quiet person who was not competitive, but he was actually very serious about everything he set his mind to. Although it was not his wish to participate in this competition, since he had to, he would definitely try his best to be first.

Shi Nian doesn’t take excessive care of him either, but will just give him some advice on some aspects.

He would sometimes give him tricks on when and how to go. In the past, the mecha manufacturing department had not been able to train, so he could only make up for it with these tricks.

As a result, there were places where he would walk a little slower.

Zhang Jingkai noticed that the two of them didn’t keep up and looked back. Shi Nian gave him a gesture that said it didn’t matter, saying to let them go first and they would follow up immediately.

He had the map inside his head and knew what route the group would take, so he wasn’t worried about falling behind.

And his teammates were used to two guides following behind them silently, so they didn’t react to the disappearance of people. It was a long time before the sentinel in charge of guarding the rear was ready to mention that the two guides had not been following for some time.

But at that moment, they encountered another group.

What could be said at this point except “let’s fight first!”

It’s not certain with all six schools combined, but as far as their school was concerned, their group was at the top of their game, so it was a quick fix.

While the other side was retreating, they said, “It really is the first tier, this strength… Oh, where did they hide their two guides? ”

“That’s right, where are their guides?”

The other party was going to retire as a whole team, but Shi Nian and Zhou Xinyun had not yet appeared, “Were their guides eliminated in advance? No way, so…… ”

“Looking for us?”

Shi Nian came from the back with Zhou Xinyun and looked at them.

The other team: “…… no.”

“That’s fine, we’re leaving then.” With that, the two of them went after Zhang Jingkai and the others in front of them.

The other team: “…… fuck!”

“Insidious ah! These people let the guides follow behind. That way, there is no danger to them when they fight! Why didn’t we think of that? ”

“What could we do if we thought of it? Do you think it’s a hard idea to come up with that? But first you have to make sure the guides behind you don’t get lost, and you have to make sure they can keep up, and you have to make sure they don’t run into another group and get killed outright. ”

The person who spoke earlier couldn’t help but glance at the retreating backs and say, “People just……”

“Why compare yourself to others?” The person who spoke at the back said, “Although I’m not sure of the specifics, at that time there were ten people who claimed to be the Tsunami Star Pirates, and you know exactly what level each one was. Under those circumstances, no matter how they were captured or how Shi Nian was rescued, if he could survive in such a dangerous situation, you would not even be able to catch up with him in terms of his ability to avoid danger. ”

“What a bargain for Chu Feng Yu and the others.”

So it went all the way, with Shi Nian and the others taking first place, then taking stock of their shortcomings and discussing the other schools’ teams.

For his part, Shi Nian took the time to open his light brain and look at it, as Xue Chi had sent over some messages.

It was related to the Wu family, saying that a team from the Wu family had met up with the Tsunami Star Pirates outside and had a fight.

It was quite a spectacle, and their side had found out.

Shi Nian reacted with a jerk, “Have you not been keeping an eye on the Wu family’s movements lately.”

“Yes we did.” Adjutant Xue immediately said, “Especially after they made a move on you, we’ve been keeping a closer eye on them, but they haven’t done much… lately.”

He suddenly reacted. If there was nothing much movement, then what was the fight outside.

Even if the tsunami star pirates were crazy, it would be impossible to go to the garrison to have fun. And what did the Wu family mean by dispatching the army to suppress the bandits?

This is not something they would do, and even if they did, they would not make such a fuss at this point.

Shi Nian immediately asked, “Have you contacted Lu Bo Ting recently? I mean, seeing him. ”

Xue Chi didn’t say anything for a while.

No.

The last contact was with another adjutant. This was a normal situation when he was away. And once he had even seen his sister, he didn’t think much about it.

But now that he thought about it, where was the previous adjutant who had replaced him temporarily? He said he had made a mistake and was removed, but was it really just a mistake and not an injury?

What about Marshal Lu, who hadn’t shown up?

“Impossible!” Adjutant Xue didn’t want to believe it. “The recent battle reports are all good news. According to the past situation, the Zerg will be completely defeated soon.”

But this time was not like the past.

Shi Nian thought of the two zergs that had stayed on the main star, not knowing what they wanted, but had inexplicably stopped all movements recently.

Then he thought about the inexplicable movement of troops from the Wu family’s side.

He got up straight away.

Next to him, Zhou Xinyun froze for a moment, then said, “What, what’s wrong?”

Zhang Jing Kai, Chu Feng Yu, and the others looked over.

“Something’s up.” Shi Nian said as he walked out, “It’s rather urgent. I’ll go first. You guys continue. Just send me the conclusion later. ”

When he got on the flying machine, he called Mrs. Lu directly.

The latter picked up, still looking the same, yet someone was missing by her side.

“Auntie, where’s old Marshal Lu? Is he willing to leave a beautiful girl like you all alone today? ”

Mrs. Lu forced a smile. “He went to the bathroom.”

“Oh ……”

Shi Nian suddenly restrained the smile on his face and lowered his head, “You don’t know yet? It seems that I shouldn’t have said it originally. Lu Bo Ting, he…”

The moment these words came out, Mrs. Lu’s face immediately changed. “You also know about it! I thought they were going to hide it from our people on the main star…… ”

Shi Nian: “……”

Sure enough,

Shi Nian rubbed his brow and asked, “What the hell is going on?”

“You ……” How could Mrs. Lu not know she had been tricked, “How did you guess?”

Shi Nian told the process, then continued to inquire. Naive Lady Lu did not know much, only that it seemed like he was betrayed at some critical moment and was seriously injured when he didn’t react for a moment.

Now he was on his way back to the main star and was afraid that the Wu family would find out about it, so he hid it very well.

Shi Nian thought about it for a while. He knew that the Wu family might not know, but they must have noticed. Otherwise the army would not have moved.

Even if you pay more attention to the news on the Star Network, you will know that this war with the Zerg has almost reached its late stage.

In other words, there is only the finish left.

If something happened to Lu Bo Ting at this time, and the Wu family sent someone to take over, a big credit would be one thing, and perhaps even access to the soldiers under the Lu family’s hands.

But unfortunately, perhaps by coincidence or not, they ran into the Tsunami Star pirates, who were framed twice in a row by them, were denounced twice on Star Online, and were petitioned by everyone to be eliminated.

The tsunami star pirates are estimated to not want to swallow this anger, so a fight broke out, and it became a huge fuss.

He had previously wondered how even if Tsunami had fought with the Wu family, how could it have been so easily known on their side.

Now that he thought about it, it seemed like the tsunami pirates were deliberately trying to damage the Wu family. They didn’t even need to know what the Wu family was up to, they just hit them with two cannons to get them into trouble, and then leaked the news. Once their quiet march was exposed, any conspiracy they had would have been half defeated.

Shi Nian also comforted Mrs. Lu, and then hung up the communication.

He then returned to the villa.

Adjutant Xue was only a few minutes behind him, and as soon as he arrived, he rushed in.

Shi Nian looked at him and told him what had happened.

Xue Chi: “……”

“So where is the Marshal now? What should we do? ”

“Just pretend we don’t know.” Shi Nian said, “Since our own people feel that it is better for us on the main star not to know, there is no need to make more than one move. The moment we make a move, the Wu family is bound to react. It’s right to wait now, and I don’t think it will take long. ”

Xue Chi: “You’re taking it so well.”

He looked at Shi Nian with a complicated expression. No wonder the marshal said before he left that if he couldn’t contact him about something urgent, he could call Shi Nian.

Obviously it was all the same message, and he had not yet reacted at all, whole Shi Nian had thought everything through in just a moment.

Leaning back on the sofa, for a rare moment, Shi Nian did not go to fetch food from the kitchen after returning home.

“We’re too close to the Wu family, it’s hard to hide any bit of action.” Shi Nian said, “It’s better that Old Marshal Lu and Madam Lu are out there. Besides, they have to contact that side.”

After all, when something happened to Lu Bo Ting, although the people under him were all loyal and the subsequent decisions were definitely made by the admirals and some of their inner circle, it was still a matter of the group being without a leader.

So they went to ask Old Marshal Lu to step in.

And when Old Marshal Lu made such a big movement, it was naturally impossible to hide it from Madam Lu.

“Madam Lu is already on her way back, on tomorrow’s airship. You’ll pick her up then. ”

“I’ll send someone who is on leave.” Xue Chi said.

This was the only way to keep the Wu family from noticing.

“No need. You go and pick her up yourself. She is familiar with you, and it’s safer to have someone you know at a time like this. Since they’ve arranged for Madam Lu to return, there won’t be a problem with the timing of her return. ”

If he was right…”

By tomorrow morning, Lu Bo Ting will be back.”

There would be no need to hide this, and there was no way to hide it completely.”

But they’d taken care of all the follow-up too, and by then, they would have only one thing left to do;

That was to treat the injured Lu Bo Ting.
