"I’ve told you, you don’t need to interfere in my affairs," Li Dajun shouted angrily.

"Not interfere? If I don’t, you’ll be a captain in this Nan’an Guard Team forever, and our son and I will be stuck here forever, I’m not satisfied," Lifang said with reddened eyes. "If my husband were incompetent, I would have nothing to say, but my husband is obviously excellent, yet because he’s in the same unit as Captain Mu, he has to be overshadowed by him, which is just unfair."

Li Dajun looked at Lifang with tears streaming down her face, listened to her saying her husband was obviously excellent, and suppressed his anger, heaved a heavy sigh, and sat on the sofa.

"Lifang, when you came to the Guard Team, I told you, although you’re the family member of a guard, there are rules in the Guard Team, you shouldn’t ask about my business, and you definitely shouldn’t interfere blindly. For all these years, I’ve never criticized you for being ostentatious in the Guard Team or speaking inappropriately, but why are you so confused about this matter?

Although Captain Mu is younger and has been in the Guard Team for a shorter time, can’t you see the four stars on his shoulder? He’s already a colonel. After the South Sea incident, the Guard Team intended to promote him to major general, but because his wife was injured in that incident and almost didn’t recover, he refused the Guard Team’s commendation. That doesn’t mean he lacks capability. A twenty-seven-year-old major general, how could I compete with him? What right do I have to compete with him? If he wanted, not just the Chief Guard of S Province’s Guard Team, he could even be the brigade commander.

There’s something I wasn’t supposed to tell you, but today I’ll make an exception and tell you once. Captain Mu’s transfer within the Guard Team has already been arranged. After September 1st, the transfer order will be issued, relocating him to the Imperial City, while I will be transferred to S Province."

Upon hearing Li Dajun’s words, Lifang suddenly raised her head, wiped away her tears, "Really? Does this mean the Guard Team values you?"

Li Dajun looked at her without nodding or shaking his head. His deep eyes seemed to want to see through her.

"Don’t think your husband’s transfer to S Province is his achievement. During the exercise, the original plan was for me to carry out the mission, but Captain Mu volunteered to withdraw from the exercise and allowed me to take his place as the commander, giving me the opportunity to stand out, and also made the superior recognize and give this transfer opportunity to me. You could say it was Captain Mu who promoted me. I was planning to tell you this after the transfer order came through."

"Yes, yes, Captain Mu is our benefactor," Lifang nodded continuously, overwhelmed with emotion.

"But what did you do?" Li Dajun slapped the table with a hand, startling Lifang.

"Captain Mu always thinks of me, but what did you do? You spread rumors behind his back about his wife and the guard having an affair. Lifang, how can I face Captain Mu? With what dignity can I go to S Province to be the Chief Guard?"

Lifang also realized the seriousness of the situation at this moment. Although she was frightened when Liu Hu and Jia Chenggang fought, words once spoken cannot be taken back. She had no way back, and upon hearing Li Dajun say this, she regretted even more, throwing herself beside Li Dajun, clinging to his arm, tears falling in urgency.

"Dajun, Dajun, I was wrong, I truly know I was wrong. I just wanted to create some small trouble for them so Captain Mu would voluntarily give up this transfer opportunity. I never intended to harm Captain Mu’s wife."
