Chapter 878: Chapter 878: Hesitant due to Concerns Over Valuables 6 Chapter 878: Chapter 878: Hesitant due to Concerns Over Valuables 6 Lu Jiang and Zheng Xuefeng exchanged a glance. What day was it today? Everyone seed to be looking for them.
“Please co in!” Lu Jiang spoke.
No matter Jiu Hong’s reason for coming, they couldn’t refuse to et him.
The mont Jiu Hong walked in, he said, “Comrades Lu and Zheng, I want to withdraw my previous divorce application. Is that possible?”
To withdraw the divorce application!
Lu Jiang and Zheng Xuefeng imdiately recalled Li Shuitian’s earlier advice. Had Li Shuitian guessed it right?
“Withdraw? Comrade Jiu Hong, what do you think the military is? Do you think you can apply for divorce when you want and withdraw it when you change your mind? This isn’t a place where you can have everything your own way!” Zheng Xuefeng said sternly.
Jiu Hong’s face turned red as he repeatedly apologized, “Sorry, so sorry!”
By the rules, the military would talk to the parties involved in a divorce application to try to salvage the marriage, and only if it couldn’t be saved and both parties agreed to divorce, they would approve it.
So, Jiu Hong knew he had a chance at withdrawal.
Zheng Xuefeng spoke gravely, “Jiu Hong, do you really want to withdraw your previous divorce application?”
“Yes.”
“Why? Do you think marriage is child’s play?”
Taking a deep breath, Jiu Hong said, “It was after an argunt with Comrade Lu Zhaodi, in a fit of anger and under the influence of a few drinks, that I found the courage to break from old thinking and filed the report. After calming down, I felt regret. No matter what, we’ve been husband and wife for ten years. Even a day’s marriage carries a hundred days of grace, and this revolutionary bond shouldn’t be ended rashly.”
With a humble posture and a sincere tone, Jiu Hong made it seem as though he wasn’t the sa person who had been adamant about divorcing Lu Zhaodi or the one who had secretly pursued Zhu Yan while still married.
After getting Zhu Yan’s consent, Feng Qingxue of course shared the matter with Lu Jiang, who then relayed it to Zheng Xuefeng.
This matter affected personal conduct and was not to be taken lightly.
Pretending to be unaware of the sordid things Jiu Hong had done, Zheng Xuefeng said with a grave expression, “Comrade Jiu Hong, think it over carefully. Once you withdraw, you must not have second thoughts. If you do, I won’t accept your divorce application anymore. We are soldiers. Although your wedding was not held in the military, marriage is sacred and not sothing you can end on a whim.”
Eagerly, Jiu Hong said, “I won’t have second thoughts, definitely no second thoughts. It was after careful consideration that I ca to respectfully request that you two comrades agree to withdraw my divorce application because I value my revolutionary family greatly.”
Despite his words, Zheng Xuefeng didn’t imdiately agree.
“Give us so ti to think about it,” said Zheng Xuefeng. “We need to see your behavior before deciding whether to return your divorce application. If the revolutionary sentint between you and your wife is deep and stable, and you live harmoniously, then without your reminding, we will certainly return your report. It would save us the trouble of diating for you. Otherwise, you understand what I an.”
Of course, Jiu Hong understood and quickly said, “That won’t happen, it won’t. There’s no otherwise, no otherwise. I and Comrade Lu Zhaodi will live well together. I will try my best to change her feudal mindset and obey the commands from above.”
Hearing him use commands from above as a shield again, both Zheng Xuefeng and Lu Jiang felt sickened, though they couldn’t show it on their faces.
“Alright, that’s enough. You may go back. After I see that you and your wife have truly reconciled, I will return your divorce application to you,” Zheng Xuefeng, no longer wanting to see Jiu Hong’s face, cut to the chase.
