Chapter 1019: The future commander actually lives next door?

The future commanders residence? w.a.n.g Yuexi was stunned. No matter how slow his reaction was, he realized the status of the young couple next door.

It was no wonder that even though w.a.n.g Fugui was the president of the Northwest Chamber of Commerce, he still rushed over so anxiously in the middle of the night.

And Brigade Commander Zhang Xiaoman, who usually did not enter the stronghold at night, also suddenly came to their neighborhood.

Like the others, w.a.n.g Yuexi was also very curious about where their future commander had disappeared off to after attacking the Zhou Consortium.

Hu Xiaobai and the neighbors were gossiping about this. Even w.a.n.g Yuexi and the other men in the Policy Research Office would also talk about this topic during their free time at work.

Some people said the future commander had gone to carry out other, more important missions, while others said that he did not enjoy wielding authority. They figured he did not want to take Commander Zhangs role, so he decided not to come back.

There were all kinds of speculation, but no one guessed Ren Xiaosu had already returned to the Northwest and was hiding right under everyones nose.

Hu Xiaobai stood anxiously at the entrance of her house. She waved at w.a.n.g Yuexi with all her might. Come back here. Why did you run over there?

She had not heard what the soldiers said, but she was worried something might happen if w.a.n.g Yuexi got too close to them.

w.a.n.g Yuexi walked back to his house and quietly watched the soldiers who had placed the surroundings of their neighbors residence under heavy security. Hu Xiaobai whispered, Who are they? Why are they here in the middle of the night?

Its the future commander. w.a.n.g Yuexi said in a low voice, Theyre here for the future commander.

Hu Xiaobai raised her voice in surprise. The future commander?! What future commander?

Her voice boomed like a sudden clap of thunder, which all the nearby neighbors heard!

A woman poked her head out and said, Xiaobai, I heard you mention the future commander? Is he here?

Looking at the crowd in the yard downstairs, just the military off-road vehicles parked there numbered at least a dozen. Vehicles from the Northwest Chamber of Commerce were parked there as well, so it was a grand sight to behold.

Hu Xiaobai asked w.a.n.g Yuexi softly, What on earth is going on? What did those soldiers say? I think I saw Brigade Commander Zhang just now?

That

was

Zhang Xiaoman, and those soldiers are from the 6th Combat Brigade. You can tell by just looking at their shoulders. w.a.n.g Yuexi sighed and said, When I walked over just now, a soldier told me that the future commanders residence is next door, so Im not to approach it. Do you understand what Im saying?

w.a.n.g Yuexi watched as his wifes jaw dropped. He quickly covered her mouth with his hand and said, Dont shout! Arent you afraid the others will find out whats going on?

Hu Xiaobai said in disbelief, The future commander is next door? Ive been criticizing the future commander for being a lazy b.u.m every day?

w.a.n.g Yuexi said with a gloomy expression, Thats the case, isnt it? Now that I think about it, with the status of our future commander, why would he even need to work? The entire Yunsu business belongs to him, so even if he spends his entire life being lazy, he cant spend all his money. d.a.m.n you, woman, youre way too much! You kept saying the future commander was a lazy b.u.m and that you felt bad for Ms. Xiaojin. Look at what happened now! Who knows if the future commander will take this matter to heart?

Hu Xiaobai looked at w.a.n.g Yuexi. Dont blame me. Youre the one who sacked the future commander from his job.

When w.a.n.g Yuexi heard this, he could even feel his liver starting to hurt.

G.o.ddammit!

Hu Xiaobai muttered, But theyre so rich. Why did they go to the market and sell peaches and potatoes?

Cant he live life? w.a.n.g Yuexi said, By the way, have you ever noticed what he usually does?

Reading, thats about it. When I went to the market with Ms. Xiaojin, he was also just reading books. Hu Xiaobai said, But I dont think hes been reading much in recent days. All he does is randomly wander around the market. I heard about that from Mrs. Liu.

Wandering around? w.a.n.g Yuexi wondered.

Mhm, he went to every stall and asked them about the prices of vegetables, rice, and noodles every day. Thats all he ever does, Hu Xiaobai said.

w.a.n.g Yuexi fell silent. If this were before, he would also think the person was really a lazy b.u.m. But if his status as the future commander was confirmed, w.a.n.g Yuexi would have to think deeper.

It looks like the future commander has also noticed the change in the food prices. w.a.n.g Yuexi said firmly, Hes concerned about the food shortage thats coming to the Northwest.

Hu Xiaobai said with a smile, Thats what I thought! How could the future commander of our Northwest possibly be a lazy b.u.m?

w.a.n.g Yuexi looked at his wife silently.

That isnt what you said previously.

While he was pondering things, the sound of car engines came from Anning East Road again. All the onlookers turned in that direction to see who it was this time.

Tonight, there was not a moment of peace on Anning East Road.

A convoy of black off-road vehicles sped over and appeared in everyones sight. When w.a.n.g Yuexi saw the vehicles, he recognized them. Those vehicles are from the black market. Its Zhou Yingxue.

This convoy looked much more fearsome than the earlier ones. Every vehicle was a full-sized SUV with an unusually large and wide front body.

When the convoy came to a stop, Zhou Yingxue, who was dressed in a purple qipao, got out of the vehicle in high heels. The Eight Vajras followed close behind.

Before Zhou Yingxue reached the entrance of the residence, her voice drifted over. Master!

With that, all onlookers could confirm that the person living in this house was indeed the future commander of the Northwest.

In that instant, Ren Xiaosus reputation as a lazy b.u.m changed. Everyone started discussing and saying, What a low profile the future commander has kept

When Zhou Yingxue heard the noisy chatter around her, her eyebrows twitched. She ordered w.a.n.g Yuchi and the others, Go tell them not to stop watching. Is this something they should be standing around to watch?

As soon as the maidservant opened her mouth, the fearsome mob boss aura of hers could be felt.

As she walked to Ren Xiaosus residence, the soldiers of the 6th Combat Brigade did not stop her as they knew who she was.

But before she could knock on the door, she heard Ren Xiaosus voice come from inside. Stay outside and reflect upon yourself!

The maidservants expression darkened. She stood outside the door in anger and muttered under her breath, I came to see you in the middle of the night, yet youre making me stand out here as punishment?! Did I set up this black market for myself? It was all for you, Master! Seriously?!

As she complained, the maidservant looked at w.a.n.g Yuexi and Hu Xiaobai before saying amiably, You two are his neighbors, right? When did he move here?

About a month ago, w.a.n.g Yuexi answered.

Zhou Yingxue looked at w.a.n.g Yuexi. Eh, why do you look so familiar?

Im w.a.n.g Yuexi from the Policy Research Office, w.a.n.g Yuexi introduced himself.

Oh, I remember now. When the black market opened for business, you also sent a flower basket. When you have time, come visit the black market. Zhou Yingxue said with a smile, Hey, you two! Come over and tell me what hes been up to recently.

The sudden commotion completely disrupted the peace in the old military neighborhood. News of the future commander secretly living in Stronghold 144 quickly spread to every corner of the stronghold within ten minutes.

Their future commander was finally back!
