Chapter 182: Chapter 182 Response
Early the next morning, Wang Hu went to the troupe. He had hardly slept all night and left as soon as he got up.
Father Wang and Mrs. Wang exchanged a glance and shook their heads together.
A phone call from Bai Fanglan last night had led Wang Hu to smash things in the house.
The old couple didn’t know what had happened, but seeing Bai Fanglan hadn't returned, they guessed the couple
had quarreled. However, their son always disliked talking, so they couldn't ask.
Mrs. Wang said, "Had | known it would be like this, | shouldn't have let him marry so early."
"It's not about age, but Bai Fanglan’s personality being unsuitable," Father Wang sighed.
Wang Hu should have found someone gentle and accommodating, instead of someone spoiled and indulgent.
But it's already like this, what can be done? Should they let the child divorce?
Wang Hu drove with tightly pursed lips, arriving swiftly at the wrong place, then directly went to the leader's
office to retrieve his application.
The leader was very surprised: "You've reported this to the upper management numerous times, and we've
reached the final three-to-two stage. You actually decided to give up? Have you... had any problems?" He wanted
to ask if he was crazy, passing through numerous hurdles, only to quit at the last step? Doesn't this give an
advantage to the other two, letting them win without a fight!
Wang Hu said, "I thought it through last night. My abilities don’t match Yan Kai and Gu Junming’s, and even if |
reached the final evaluation, | might not win. Besides, | also want to study well and apply for an opportunity for
further training abroad."
"Alright, since you've decided yourself, | will respect your opinion. Going to study is also good."
Wang Hu took back the application form and sighed in relief. He would rather have nothing than be involved in
this matter. Even if he succeeded, he would still be talked about!
He crumpled the application form into a wad of waste paper and walked out, just in tto bump into Gu
Junming and his partner Sun Chan at the entrance. He instantly felt incredibly awkward, unable to avoid them.
Thinking about it, when did he start fearing seeing others? Wasn't Bai Chuan the cause of all this!
Gu Junming and Sun Chan cover to greet Wang Hu.
Wang Hu hesitated several times before finally saying, "I've withdrawn from the competition. You... you're good."
"What do you mean?" Gu Junming was stunned. He knew Bai Chuan was playing tricks behind the scenes, and
naturally understood it was for Wang Hu. Who would have thought he would give up on his own!

Sun Chan watched his back and said, "He's a good person."
"Yeah. Let's go," Gu Junming said, patting Sun Chan's back.
The two went to the leader's office upstairs. The leader first asked Sun Chan squestions, mainly about her
relationship with Gu Junming and any anomalies during the disaster relief. Sun Chan answered them one by one.
"Gu Junming is not that kind of person. | believe him and hope the leader can see the truth. He's not like that.
Besides, I'm just a countryside woman. To be honest, even if Gu Junming had that intention, wouldn't he find
someone young and pretty?" Sun Chan said with an embarrassed smile, continuing: "I heard that widow is over
forty, think about it, during that cold weather, with an earthquake happening, Gu Junming didn’t bathe for
several weeks, with a dirty face and tangled hair, struggling with no places to eat or stay, and that widow with
several kids, she would have the thought to be involved with that? | don’t believe it."
Several leaders laughed. Indeed, in the harsh winter, those soldiers were quite a sight when they returned. They
were focused and serious; how could they have the mind for such things?
Sun Chan continued, "That woman lived with kids together, Gu Junming was there with several people, the only
tthey were alone was that day repairing houses, but nothing happened, and he left after a few hours, there
couldn't have been anything."
"But the widow said so, claiming Gu Junming..." These words were awkward; it was harassment, after all, he
flirted with her.
Sun Chan said, "I think whatever anyone does is driven by motives. The widow and Gu Junming never met
before, with no personal enmity. So ultimately, someone must have paid her, giving her benefits. She was filled
with gratitude for the army then, why suddenly change her tune? Probably someone found her and promised
something?"
The leaders exchanged looks, someone said, "Did Gu Junming tell you?"
Sun Chan laughed, "Actually, that’s my speculation; the informant was likely someone who had a grudge against
Gu Junming."
"Hmm, you're smart."
"I'm not smart; | just believe in Gu Junming’s integrity, he wouldn't do such things."
"Alright, you can leave, we'll certainly investigate thoroughly."
Sun Chan stood up and spoke a few words to them humbly and proudly, then left.
A leader laughed, "The young lady is quite young, but she speaks logically, quite insightful."
"Indeed. This tclearly someone wants to frGu Junming, who could it be?"
"This perhaps needs to start with that widow; she’s bound to know something."

But this woman had no connections, yet could get her daughter enlisted, that was significant capability, and her
age wasn't suitable.
Gu Junming reported the matter to the upper management.
The leader summoned the widow; initially, she denied it vehemently.
"It's Gu Junming who bullied me! You guys can’t treatunjustly just because you're locals. If you don’t help
me, I'll report this above!"
