Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander novel Chapter 456

Chapter 456: Chapter 482: Bai Fanglan at a Dead End Part 2

After Yao DianDian understood all this, she fell seriously ill. Wang Hu had always been someone strict with himself, living by the rules. She shouldn’t have been so eager for success, actively confessing her feelings.

Now, even if Wang Hu never gets married in his lifetime, he couldn’t be with her. Yao DianDian was very sad, but it was also something beyond her control. Later, she came to terms with it, returned to her parents, and soon married one of her father’s old subordinates.

When Wang Hu found out, he was silent for two days and also fell ill.

He genuinely liked Yao DianDian, but ultimately had to give up and accept reality.

After these two women, Wang Hu was really disillusioned with marriage. He no longer talked about getting married, even when his parents kept urging him, he didn’t care, until two weeks ago when his father had a check-up and suddenly discovered a shadow in his lungs. The doctor said it might be cancer.

His mom called crying, begging Wang Hu to come back quickly. She hoped he would bring a partner to visit, so his father wouldn’t be sad.

Only then did Wang Hu ask his colleague, Xiao Hong, for help, asking her to pretend to be his partner to reassure his parents.

Xiao Hong agreed, and they returned together. His parents were really happy to see their son had a partner.

Father Wang kept urging them to hurry up and get married, saying they were not young anymore, or else having children would be a problem.

Currently, there are still five days before Father Wang’s test results come out, and now, everyone is anxiously waiting for the results. Wang Hu walked heavily, his mind in chaos. He felt guilty towards his parents, at such an age, still worrying them, it was his fault.

Seeing Wang Hu constantly silent, with furrowed brows, Xiao Hong advised, "You shouldn’t put on such a worried expression, how could the old man be at ease like that? After waiting so hard for you to come back, you should say more to make them happy, but instead, you drag on with a long face. It’s unclear if your return is to reassure or to add troubles?"

"I know, I’m wrong." Wang Hu forced a smile, "Thank you."

Xiao Hong chuckled, "Twenty-eight times."

"Huh?"

"You’ve thanked me twenty-eight times today. My ears are getting calluses."

Wang Hu was very embarrassed, smiled a little, and stopped talking.

Xiao Hong again advised, "With medical technology so advanced nowadays, even if... it’s not that easy to pass away, plus the doctor also said it’s not certain, right? If it’s just some inflammation or something, it might directly recover. You shouldn’t be like this, the family is counting on you now, if you become so gloomy yourself, what should your parents do? You need to make them happy, give them hope."

Wang Hu nodded, "Indeed. Thanks to you, keeping the atmosphere lively."

"I personally am not very talkative, you also saw that I’m quiet in the barracks, but seeing you not speaking, I became anxious and could only step up myself."

Wang Hu smiled, "This time thanks to you, I remember, I won’t be like that again, I’ll comfort my parents, I’ll treat you to a meal sometime."

"Okay." Xiao Hong smiled slightly, "Just don’t thank me again, it’s too awkward, every time you say thank you, I just want to turn and leave."

Xiao Hong’s face turned red, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Wang Hu couldn’t be bothered to ask Bai Fanglan what good job was lost, it’s not like a temporary job. How can someone be fired just like that? She must have committed an unforgivable mistake. When did Bai Fanglan become such a person? It’s utterly ridiculous!

Seeing Wang Hu uncaring, Bai Fanglan directly knelt in front of him, "I beg you, for the sake that we were once married, help me find another job! Please!" She cried again. Having knelt once, kneeling again wasn’t a big deal. She made up her mind not to leave without achieving her goal.

Passersby were curious, looking at them.

Wang Hu felt his temples throbbing with pain, what’s with this woman now? Clinging like this?

"Get up, Bai Fanglan, don’t make me look down on you!"

"If you don’t help me, I won’t get up!" She held onto Wang Hu’s leg and cried.

Xiao Hong walked over to Bai Fanglan and calmly said, "Do you realize what you’re doing? You were also in the military, yet now you don’t even care about dignity for a job? Not getting up unless someone agrees? If achieving goals just requires shameless kneeling, then no need for effort, just kneel directly. Not agreeing? Just keep kneeling. Is your knee so worthless? It’s truly contemptible."

Bai Fanglan looked up crying, "You don’t understand! I have children to support, I can’t be without a job..."

"So important work yet got fired? Should ask what’s the reason." Xiao Hong glanced at Wang Hu.
