Chapter 444 - Some Woman Bedded Boss and Ran Away Afterward (1/2)

When the people saw the couple, they were a little awkward initially, but eventually, someone among them took the lead, and everyone called out in unison, “Nice to meet you, Sister-in-law!”

Li Beinian shivered at the thunderous greeting.

As Mu Xichen had his arms around her, he detected her reaction.

Immediately, he glowered and warned them. “You’re scaring her!”

These people from the military forces were used to shouting and weren’t aware of their error.

The boorish men were dumbfounded by Mu Xichen’s reaction and exchanged looks among themselves. Immediately, they called out in unison again, “Apologies, Sister-in-law!”

Li Beinian studied them for a moment and finally said with an unfathomable expression, “It was you guys on the island previously, wasn’t it? Did you guys retire collectively?”

The men stood as straight as a pencil and responded in unison to her question, “Swift Eagle advances and retreats with the Chief!”

Their single voice spoke of a tacit understanding that ran deep in their bones and through their veins. It was loud and soul-shaking.

Her heart was stirred, and she subconsciously recalled her past life.

After Mu Xichen was executed by the firing squad, it was such a group of men who continued to speak up against this injustice.

Street demonstrations were only one of the things they did. Their grievance over this matter was also widely covered on the internet, by the media, and the press.

At the time, his death touched every living person.

It seemed that the entire world knew that Mu Xichen had died.

In hindsight, it certainly was something that had everything to do with them.

Her heart was all too easily shaken by them.

She glanced at Mu Xichen subconsciously, feeling a little scared.

He never had any involvement in smuggling nor drug trafficking. Why was he executed by the firing squad?

Given his loyalty and years of contribution to the Xia Nation, the country shouldn’t have been so ruthless towards him, no matter what.

Unless… there was clear evidence.
