Chapter 999: Are You Pregnant?

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The drama in the military compound had reached a fever pitch. The rumors about Li Li and Gu Shan’s affair had spread like wildfire, igniting whispers and knowing glances among the neighbors.

No matter how hard Li Li tried to contain the situation, it had spiraled beyond her control. Finally realizing the truth could no longer be hidden, she acted swiftly.

Before Zhang Mei could retaliate, Li Li feigned an excuse, requested leave, and asked for her salary in advance. Without a second thought, she packed her belongings and fled to her village. Confronting Zhang Mei, a woman well-connected within the compound, was a losing battle Li Li had no intention of fighting.

Li Li clung to one belief: as long as Gu Shan’s heart remained with her, nothing else mattered. She wasn’t naive—she knew Zhang Mei would eventually uncover the truth. But what could Zhang Mei do? Li Li had already disappeared.

Hiding in the safety of her village, she envisioned a future where Zhang Mei and Gu Shan’s inevitable quarrels would lead to divorce. Then, when the dust settled, Li Li would step into the role of the military officer’s wife—a title she coveted more than anything.

Her days in the village were cautious and uneventful, but Li Li never anticipated Lin Miao, Zhang Mei’s biological daughter, would track her down.

When Li Li spotted Lin Miao, her first instinct was to run. Surely, Lin Miao was here to avenge her mother. But before Li Li could escape, Lin Miao grabbed her arm and held her firmly.

“I’m not here about my mother,” Lin Miao assured her, a strange calmness in her voice. Only then did the panic on Li Li’s face begin to subside.

Li Li pulled her arm away, straightened her posture, and studied Lin Miao with wary eyes. “If you’re not here because of her, then what do you want from me? And why would I help you?” she asked, suspicion laced in her tone.
