Chapter 831: Chapter 0831: Proposing Divorce 2

Commander Bai discovered Jiang Yun and hurried over to salute, "Leader Jiang."

Jiang Yun returned the salute, "Are you rehearsing?"

"Yes!" Commander Bai glanced at Wan Xinguo, who was exchanging salutes with her. She felt he looked somewhat familiar but she had met so many people that it was very easy for her to forget someone as time passed.

Jiang Yun nodded, "When they take a break later, call Chen Chen out for a moment."

"Chen Chen?" Commander Bai suddenly remembered—the person she had failed to recognize was none other than Chen Chen’s revolutionary partner, Wan Xinguo. Was he here to find Chen Chen? Commander Bai’s face remained very composed, but inside, her emotions were surging like a tumultuous river.

The little things Chen Chen had done, Bai Xue, and Chen Chen had been kept apart because they could not escape her eyes and ears.

However, out of fear of Commissioner Wang’s power and considering the current chaos in the Su Family, Commander Bai had too many of her own problems to deal with, so she had no choice but to turn a blind eye to Chen Chen’s conduct.

Xiaoyue ran over, "Dad!"

"What ’dad’—in the army, you call me leader!" Jiang Yun said with a stern face, adopting a strictly official attitude.

"Alright, alright, greetings to you, old leader, and a salute to you, old leader!" Xiaoyue playfully stuck out her tongue and saluted formally. While Jiang Yun returned the salute, she chattered away, "Old leader, are you here to watch us rehearse? I’m really sorry, your son has embarrassed you, and from now on, he can only work offstage!"

That’s fine, actually—better to avoid jumping around on stage and being watched like a monkey.

That’s what Jiang Yun thought to himself, but he couldn’t voice it. Keeping a straight face, he continued, "Follow the organization’s arrangements in all things. Whatever the organization asks you to do, do it without complaint."

"Yes!" Xiaoyue didn’t seem to care either way.

Commander Bai, listening to their father-daughter exchange, felt a pang of envy. This was what a normal father-daughter relationship looked like, wasn’t it?

As for why Xiaoyue wasn’t arranged to perform on stage, it was because the Li Family had spoken to her privately. They thought it was inappropriate for Xiaoyue to be on stage, and once she married into the Li Family, it would be unbecoming for her to continue performing.

About this, Commander Bai was quite speechless, since she had never heard of Xiaoyue and Li Jun officially dating.

The rehearsal came to a pause, and putting aside the matter of Xiaoyue, she called for Chen Chen.

"Me?"

Chen Chen pointed at her own nose, about to ask why she was being summoned when Zhou Fei said, "Commander Wan is here—it must be for you. How can you show no excitement at all?"

If it were Peng Hu coming to find her, she would have been ecstatic.

Some in the arts troupe knew of Chen Chen’s scandal, others did not. Xiaoyue was among those who knew, while Zhou Fei and Bai Xue were among those who did not. Except for Yang Fengying, Fang Ning, and a few others, the rest were reveling in Chen Chen’s predicament, just waiting to see how she would explain her scandal to her revolutionary partner!

Chen Chen’s face darkened with resentment as she strode over to Wan Xinguo, finally recognizing the man in front of her as her husband. Yet she was very displeased, "Haven’t I said that I don’t have the time to entertain you and told you not to come? Why are you here disturbing my work?"

Before Wan Xinguo could respond, Commander Bai rebuked, "Chen Chen, watch how you speak."

Jiang Yun also became angry, "Girl, how can you speak like that? Comrade Wan has traveled thousands of miles to visit you, and this is your attitude? Have you forgotten that you are revolutionary partners?"

Wan Xinguo, however, remained very calm, "Leader Jiang, Commander Bai, I’d like to speak with Comrade Chen Chen alone."
