An Ran was woken up by the sound of the Guard Team’s broadcast. Normally during training, the broadcast on the family building side is turned off. The abrupt sound left An Ran momentarily bewildered. Rubbing her sore waist, she sat up and listened carefully, realizing it was Sun Lifang’s voice. Then she remembered: yesterday, Mu Xingfeng mentioned that Sun Lifang would apologize to her in front of the entire Guard Team through the morning broadcast after training.

An Ran got out of bed, went to the window, and opened it. The regretful words, laced with heavy nasal tone, from Sun Lifang came through clearly.

After taking a shower and exiting the bathroom, Sun Lifang was still saying words of apology. An Ran couldn’t help but marvel at Captain Li’s skill in handling his wife.

Sun Lifang, having a low level of education and being a rather boastful person, had to make a public apology on the broadcast with such long speeches; this must be a profound lesson for her.

Listening to the content of the apology, it probably had Li Dajun’s guidance. Otherwise, An Ran doubted that Sun Lifang could come up with such words on her own.

Soon, Mu Xingfeng returned from morning training, still carrying breakfast.

Watching him go straight to the kitchen to get bowls and chopsticks, An Ran couldn’t help but touch her nose. Since she arrived, she’d been indulging in sleeping in, and she wondered if others saw Mu Xingfeng fetching breakfast from the cafeteria every day and thought she was a neglectful wife.

Thinking of this, An Ran took the bowl from Mu Xingfeng’s hand and served the porridge, "Honey, don’t go to the cafeteria for breakfast after morning training tomorrow. If I get up half an hour early, I can make breakfast. You can tell me in advance what you’d like to eat."

Mu Xingfeng peeled a tea egg and placed it in An Ran’s bowl, responding without looking up, "No need, you’re so tired. Sleep a bit more in the morning." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

An Ran: "..."

She really wanted to dump the porridge on the man’s head. Who was to blame for her tiredness?

Just as they were eating, a knock on the door sounded, but the voice came in before the person did.

"Ranran, did that woman apologize to you?"

As soon as Xiao Xiao entered the Guard Team courtyard, she heard the broadcast. Although she only caught the tail end, she had heard enough to know what was going on.

"Yes, it’s been broadcasted all morning, and I’m a bit tired from just listening. So early, have you eaten?"

An Ran looked at Xiao Xiao and Lin Junyang behind her. Early as it was, Jiang Zhuo must have sent Xiao Xiao here, and Xiao Xiao had just arrived at the Guard Team, while Lin Junyang, playing the role of a gallant protector, clearly was keeping Jing Xiangyang away like a thief.

"I had breakfast at the villa. Oh, and Sister Su asked me to bring you some of her fried beef balls," Xiao Xiao said, placing a lunchbox on the table. An Ran opened it and popped one into her mouth. Honestly, Sister Su’s cooking was really good; she should really consider moving back to the villa.

"Is that matter just over like this?" Xiao Xiao pulled out a chair and sat down, asking.

"What else could I do? She was just spreading some gossip, harming my reputation. This morning, she apologized publicly through the broadcast and cleared my name, showing genuine remorse. I can’t keep holding on to it, can I?" An Ran stuffed another beef ball into Mu Xingfeng’s mouth, "By the way, Captain Li said yesterday that Sun Lifang would come to our house to apologize in person after her broadcast apology."
