Looking at his back, Sarah panicked, as if
something was slipping out of her control.
She really wanted to get up and chase after
him, but the piercing pain in her ankle forced
く
Sarah could only shout loudly, trying to get
the man to turn around.
The louder she shouted, the faster the man
left.
As if running away from some flood.
Finally, a teammate who couldn’t stand it
reached out and helped her up.
“Sister Sarah, don’t be angry. Ms. Yu left a
divorce application for Mark, so Captain Mark
is so anxious.”
“Let’s take you to the infirmary.”
Sarah’s eyes lit up, and she couldn’t wait to
grab the teammate who was helping her and
<
asked anxiously:
“What did you say? Yu Nanqing wants to
divorce Mark?”
Her voice was eager, full of excitement.
It was completely different from the gentle,
virtuous, and non–competitive pretense she
usually put on.
The person holding her paused, and his eyes
couldn’t help but look at her with scrutiny and
suspicion.
The others didn’t miss this, and the concern
and enthusiasm on their faces were much
less.
Sarah was shocked and quickly restrained her
excitement, tears threatening to fall:
“I’m sorry, my foot really hurts too much, so I
lost my composure.”
The man nodded and turned to call another
person over.
Together, they sent her to the infirmary.
Inside the ward, the doctor was applying
medicine to Sarah’s foot.
Outside the ward, several teammates were
standing or sitting, all silent.
“Could Sister–in–law and Mark be breaking
up because of Ms. Sarah…”
Xiao Zhao, the youngest of the group,
く
couldn’t help but speak first.
“Don’t talk nonsense. Mark isn’t that kind of
person.”
Someone immediately scolded him.
Xiao Zhao pursed his lips and hesitated:
“What about Ms. Sarah then?”
“Before Ms. Sarah came back, Mark and
Sister–in–law were clearly fine.”
“Do you think Sister–in–law heard what we
said?”
The others subconsciously looked at Lao
Zhang, who hadn’t spoken.

Receiving the gaze of his brothers, Lao
Zhang’s face turned red:
“Impossible, Sister–in–law’s divorce
application was approved a few days ago. It
has nothing to do with me!”
Xiao Zhao lowered his head, his voice very
soft:
“But no matter what, Sister–in–law is Mark’s
revolutionary partner, and Sister–in–law has
been so good to us.”
“We shouldn’t have said those words at
noon.”

At this time, Mark was also holding the
く
divorce application and knocking on the door
of the political commissar’s house.
“Knock, knock, knock!”
The lights in the courtyard came on, and the
political commissar’s wife, Sister Zhou, came
out to open the door.
“Captain Mark? Come in quickly. What do you
need from Old Wang?”
Seeing Mark’s anxious face, Sister Zhou
quickly opened the courtyard door and let him
- in.
Mark couldn’t even greet her before rushing
into the room.
The political commissar was sitting on the
<
sofa reading the newspaper. He frowned
when he saw him rushing in:
“What’s wrong?”
Mark handed the divorce application to the
political commissar with a cold face and
asked:
“When did this happen? I never signed this
application!”
The political commissar was stunned, but
quickly understood what had happened.
“Huiquin, pour Captain Mark a cup of hot
tea.”
Sister Zhou nodded and went to the kitchen
to boil water.
L
Mark’s jaw was tense, determined to get an
answer.
The political commissar sighed and explained:
“Five days ago, Ms. Yu personally took this application to me, saying that she wanted to
break up with you.”
“I saw that the handwriting on it was indeed
yours, so I agreed.”
Mark’s pupils trembled slightly. He
remembered.
The night I came back from my hometown, I
did give him an application to sign.
But what I said was an application for a letter
of introduction.
How… how could it be…
“Political commissar, I didn’t know it was an
application to dissolve the relationship…”
His voice was hoarse, like a traveler who had
been walking in the desert for a long time.
The political commissar stopped drinking tea,
but his expression didn’t change at all.
It was as if he had been prepared for this.
Mark noticed this and looked at the political
commissar in disbelief.
“Why?”
The man who had never been afraid of facing
the enemy on the battlefield now had red
The political commissar was silent for a long
time before saying:
