Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 790 - Chapter 790 Chapter 789 Fence Sitter_1

Chapter 790: Chapter 789: Fence Sitter_1 Chapter 790: Chapter 789: Fence Sitter_1 He Shasha flopped on NanFei’s shoulder as though she was boneless, half her body leaning against NanFei’s. She grinned, “NanFei, have you noticed? We’re in such sync now. I’ll be the one to charge into the battlefield, and you’ll clean up after me.”

“In your dreams! Why can’t I be the one charging in?”

He Shasha looked at her slender waist and sneered, “Could you do it? Wouldn’t it be suicide for you?”

“Ha! Just you wait.” NanFei decided to request Bei Jiang to teach them some moves, so as not to be looked down upon. “However, my fighting skills may not be too shabby.” After her rebirth, the first thing she did was fight with Huo Jinlan.

However, since Huo Jinlan was no longer around, there was no need to mention it.

As the two were talking, they saw Zhuo Xiaoxiao coming up from below, her face full of bright smiles.

“Isn’t she the person we ran into when we first arrived?” He Shasha whispered.

“Yep!” NanFei nodded.

“Jiang NanFei? Someone downstairs is looking–you. I’m Zhuo Xiaoxiao.”

NanFei looked at her with suspicion, thinking about how she had been tricked by such a clumsy excuse before. She cautiously walked to the window and looked down.

It was indeed Yu Xiaoxiao.

After confirming that someone was indeed looking for her, she walked back and thanked Zhuo Xiaoxiao.

“Wait for me on the field, Shasha, I’ll be back.” After telling Shasha, NanFei went downstairs to meet Yu Xiaoxiao.

Downstairs, upon seeing NanFei coming down, Yu Xiaoxiao squinted his eyes, thinking about how his boss was a jealous person. He quickly averted his eyes and walked away.

NanFei didn’t notice Yu Xiaoxiao’s expression at all, and simply greeted him as she approached.

“Hello, sister-in-law.”

It took some getting used to being addressed so respectfully as ‘sister-in-law’ by someone like him! Yu Xiaoxiao seemed more mature, lacking Lu Jin’s impetuousness, and was not as cold and silent as Ning Di.

“Hello, Captain Yu.” During their last visit to the 36th Division, Lu Jin had namedropped all his comrades, explaining their personalities and ranks so well that it seemed like family knowledge.

Yu Xiaoxiao was a bit uncomfortable, wanting to say what he needed to as quickly as possible and leave. But every time he thought of how their boss was doing, he frowned deeply, not knowing whether to spill the beans or not. The whole point of his visit was to apologize on behalf of the boss.

The boss didn’t want him to bring up anything else, but considering the seriousness of the situation, he didn’t want the boss to bear all the pressure alone.

“Is something wrong?” NanFei was sensitive and noticed that something seemed off with Yu Xiaoxiao’s hesitation.

“It’s our commander, he had to leave abruptly and asked me to let you know.”

“That’s all?”

Yu Xiaoxiao made up his mind, “That’s all!” He decided not to say too much. Besides, NanFei had just started school, and if she found out, it might affect her studies.

“Sister-in-law, I have to leave now.” After speaking, Yu Xiaoxiao left briskly, almost as if he was fleeing.

As soon as he left, Zhuo Xiaoxiao approached.

“Jiang NanFei, who was that guy just now?”

“A friend!”

“Just a friend?” She had been standing to the side, spying on them and noticed that there was barely any eye contact between the two, which didn’t suggest intimacy. But she still wanted to verify it personally, just in case she misunderstood.

Struggling to suppress her suspicions, NanFei questioned, “What do you mean by that?”

“I mean, if he’s just a friend, I’d like to ask you to help me connect with him. If you two are a couple, then forget it.” After saying that, Zhuo Xiaoxiao didn’t forget to mention her own conditions.
