After Marking Commander O, I was Forced to a Flash Marriage

Chapter 86

She shouldn’t have reacted so strongly.

Today, every action she took felt so unsteady.

Even if it was unintentional, she didn’t want to hurt Ren Qingqiu.

The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt, but she didn’t want to ponder the reasons and directly headed to her dorm room.

“I’m going back.”

“Wait a moment, commander.”

Ren Qingqiu followed closely behind her, slipping inside just as Bai Yuxi opened the door.

Bai Yuxi frowned, unable to stop her.

The temperature in the South was slightly warmer than in the North, but it was still chilly, and the dorm was filled with robust heating.

Once inside, Bai Yuxi angrily took off her jacket and hung it on a nearby hook.

Ren Qingqiu sat on a chair, watching Bai Yuxi.

“Commander, you’ve only said two sentences since earlier. Can I ask what you’re angry about now?”

Bai Yuxi remained silent for a few seconds, feeling perplexed.

“I’m not angry.”

But barely had she finished speaking when Ren Qingqiu’s terminal suddenly rang.

Ren Qingqiu looked at the screen and stood up.

She walked toward the door, wanting to go outside to talk, but Bai Yuxi folded her arms and stared at her, commanding, “Don’t go out. Take the call here.”

“…”

The cut on Ren Qingqiu’s face throbbed slightly. She took a deep breath as she looked at Bai Yuxi’s expression.

She sensed that stepping outside to answer the call might lead to serious trouble, so she cautiously pressed to answer, holding the terminal to her ear.

The sound of a lighter igniting came through, and Kong Youxi’s voice was flat.

“Why did it take you so long to pick up?”

“…”

Ren Qingqiu was momentarily at a loss for words and simply asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Jing Zhuo asked me early this morning about the information related to your current identity.” Kong Youxi sighed on the other end.

“Huh?”

Ren Qingqiu was taken aback.

“Are you not satisfied unless you’re in the spotlight? Well, it looks like you’ve got your wish now,” Kong Youxi remarked nonchalantly.

Ignoring the sarcasm, Ren Qingqiu felt a bit surprised.

“He told you I’m Li Bei?”

Standing in front of the wardrobe, Bai Yuxi immediately recognized who the person on the other end was just from hearing Ren Qingqiu mention “Li Bei.”

She clenched the hanger in her hand, feeling increasingly irritated.

Kong Youxi exhaled smoke.

“Not exactly. He thinks Ren Qingqiu might be Li Bei’s illegitimate daughter.”

Ren Qingqiu couldn’t help but laugh incredulously.

“Did he not consider the age difference?”

“With your personality, you could pull off anything. It’s possible you caused trouble when you were young and then sought refuge in the military academy, and to cover it up, you lied about your age… that’s what he said.” Kong Youxi flicked the ash off her cigarette.
