My Sweet Physician Wife Calls The Shots

"Aunt Zhou, what happened to you?"

Just as the woman was picking up the pieces, someone called out to her.

When Aunt Zhou saw that the person who could back her up was there, she immediately started crying. As she cried, she sat on the ground.

"Commander Luo, you have to help me! I rode the electric-powered scooter to your house to cook, but this woman kicked my scooter. Look at how badly it crashed! I don't live a healthy life--I have to work for several families every day, and I don't earn much. Now that my scooter was kicked into pieces before I can earn enough, not only did she not compensate me, but she even forced me to stay here to clean up the area. You're a government official, please help me!"

Zhong Nuannuan had seen this Commander Luo that this woman was referring to. He was Luo Shangyi, the number three deputy commander-in-chief in the military base, ranked after Wang Gangyi and Peng Yaohua.

Zhong Nuannuan had interacted with Wang Gangyi before. Although she had never interacted with Peng Yaohua directly, Zhong Nuannuan had already sentenced him to death internally since he gave Leng Jinpeng illegal drugs.

This Luo Shangyi was the only person among the three whom Zhong Nuannuan had not interacted with before.

Even though Luo Shangyi and Peng Yaohua was there the day Wang Gangyi was caught, Luo Shangyi had not said a word since the beginning. He had been observing Wang Gangyi from the sidelines. Therefore, Zhong Nuannuan did not understand him.

The women in the military base compound recognized most of the high-ranking officers in the military base.

When they saw Deputy Commander Luo's arrival, everyone decided to disperse from the commotion to avoid causing trouble for their husband at home.

However, Deputy Commander Luo did not seem to be angry. Instead, he looked at Zhong Nuannuan and asked, "Miss Zhong, may I ask what exactly happened?"

Zhong Nuannuan explained the whole story. The middle-aged woman tried to interrupt Zhong Nuannuan, but Deputy Commander Luo shot her an intimidating glance--she dared not speak anymore.

Seeing that the woman lost her courage to speak and that Deputy Commander Luo was a reasonable person too, the bystanders started joining in. They told Deputy Commander Luo about how this woman often sped down the compound like she was driving a flying car.

After hearing everyone's testament, Luo Shangyi walked to the old master and apologized.

"Sir, I'm really sorry. This is the auntie that our family hired. I didn't know that she would usually ride fast in the residential area. I'm really sorry that she almost hurt you. Do you want to go to the hospital for a checkup? I'll pay for it."

"Hehehe, I'm fine, I'm fine. Thankfully, this girl was quick enough to save me. I'm fine, I'm fine."

The old master was an honest and open-minded old man. When he heard Deputy Commander Luo's words, he felt glad that there was an upright leader in the military base. Instantly, he laughed his way through and resolved the matter.

Deputy Commander Luo shifted his gaze toward Zhong Nuannuan and thanked her with a nod. "Miss Zhong, thank you for today. If it wasn't for you, I'm afraid it would've escalated into something bigger."

"It's nothing, but you should watch this auntie carefully. After all, this is a military family compound. There are elderly and children here. With her speeding all the time, running into someone is bound to happen one day."

"Rest assured. Rest assured. This happened because I was in the dark about this. Yet, now that I do, this won't happen again."

With that, Deputy Commander Luo fished out a stack of money. After counting it, he handed it to the woman.

"You've been working at my place for 24 days this month. This is a month's worth of money. Treat the rest as my compensation for your electric-powered scooter. You don't have to come tomorrow. Just return me the key."
