Chief of Staff Zhao looked at Zhou Chen with scrutiny. Zhou Chen and Zhao Yingnan came to him together, which made him feel uncomfortable. In addition, he had also heard the rumors in the military camp.
So even though he was very optimistic about Zhou Chen, a kind of hostility inevitably arose.
"Commander, your decision is not wrong. If you are an open-minded person, it is not difficult to solve the problem. But Wang Xiuyu is different. She has a strong self-esteem and is very competitive. But in fact, she is very fragile inside. If you deal with it in this way, there is only one result I can think of."
"What's the result?"
Chief of Staff Zhao frowned. He felt that Zhou Chen and his daughter were making a big fuss. How could a college student not be able to handle such a small thing?
"Human life."
"Human life?"
Chief of Staff Zhao almost jumped up, "What do you mean by human life?"
Zhou Chen said: "If this is the case, Wang Xiuyu will definitely commit suicide."
"Commander, we are here to stop this from happening. I think the best solution is to let Instructor Dai go and explain to Wang Xiuyu in person. In this way, even if it causes harm to Wang Xiuyu, as long as we control it and don't let more people know, Wang Xiuyu will gradually accept it even if it is difficult for her to accept it for a while."
Chief of Staff Zhao: "Letting Xiao Dai go in person, wouldn't that just add fuel to the fire?"
"Adding fuel to the fire is better than letting Wang Xiuyu commit suicide." Zhao Yingnan couldn't help but shout.
Seeing that his daughter was losing her temper with him in front of others, Old Zhao also got angry.
"These are just your two little guesses. You say she will commit suicide, so does she really commit suicide? This is simply ridiculous."
Zhao Yingnan snorted, "Anyway, we have already told you the seriousness of the matter. You are the leader and you have the final say. Anyway, I will not listen to you. Talk to Wang Xiuyu in private. Go find someone else."
"You, you idiot."
Old Zhao was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.
Zhou Chen then said, "Commander, as an open-minded leader, please forgive us if we are wrong, but this is a matter of human life, so we must take it seriously."
Chief of Staff Zhao was actually also nervous. After all, this was a college student from a prestigious university. If something happened in his military camp, he would definitely be implicated. More importantly, this was a human life.
But he couldn't bring himself to admit his mistake in front of Zhou Chen and his daughter.
"I see. It's getting late. You two should go back and get some rest. Remember, only you two know about this. Don't let anyone else know. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Chief."
Seeing that her father did not agree, Zhao Yingnan wanted to say something more, but Zhou Chen shook his head at her, then took her hand and walked out of the office.
"Hey, hey."
When Chief of Staff Zhao saw Zhou Chen actually holding his daughter's hand and leaving, his eyes widened immediately, but by the time he wanted to get angry, the two had already left.
"These two idiots are always causing trouble for me. They just entered college and they want to fall in love. They don't even take me seriously."
He sat alone for a while, feeling angrily. Thinking back to the conversation just now, he felt very uneasy and immediately asked someone to call Dai Bingzhong.
"Zhou Chen, why did you stop me just now?"
"Because your father has already been moved, arguing with him will only have the opposite effect."
"Really?"
Zhao Yingnan looked suspicious. She knew her father very well. He was an incorrigible male chauvinist. Just now, she didn't see any sign of compromise from her father.
"Of course, this is your father's territory. He cares more about the safety of the students than we do. Don't worry, he will definitely deal with it as soon as possible."
"It's really a shame to save face."
After getting a positive answer, Zhao Yingnan felt relieved. She and Wang Xiuyu did not have a very deep friendship, but after all, they were classmates for a few months and lived together for so long, so she naturally did not want anything to happen to Wang Xiuyu.
It was similar to what Zhou Chen thought. In the end, Lao Zhao listened to their opinions and asked Instructor Dai to talk things over with Wang Xiu Yu and resign from his position as instructor at Renhe Medical College.
The reason why Dai Bingzhong agreed was because Chief of Staff Zhao told him that although resigning from the instructor position would indirectly mean losing the opportunity for promotion, it would allow him to continue serving in the army and would not be demobilized after half a year.
No matter how unwilling Dai Bingzhong was, he had no choice but to agree. At least this was not the worst outcome.
After Dai Bingzhong rejected Wang Xiu Yu and was transferred away, Wang Xiu Yu became depressed for a while.
If things had developed like this, it would have been the best outcome. But who would have known that a few days later, a rumor spread that Wang Xiuyu wrote a love letter to Instructor Dai but was rejected, and Instructor Dai was punished, so he was transferred away.
This was a serious matter. Wang Xiu Yu was greatly traumatized. Even though Zhao Yingnan and Xiao Hong kept persuading her, she still chose to commit suicide after stopping military training for a few days.
Fortunately, Zhao Yingnan has always been concerned about Wang Xiuyu and would visit her from time to time, so she was the first to discover Wang Xiuyu who committed suicide in the dormitory and then sent her to the hospital.
This incident caused a huge sensation in the military camp. Even the military training was stopped for three days. All the students of Renhe Medical College were called over by the army and the school for investigation and questioning.
Zhao Yingnan felt guilty about this incident for a long time. She felt that this tragedy happened because she did not handle it properly.
Not only her, but other girls in the girls' dormitory were also very sad, especially those who had conflicts with Wang Xiuyu before or those who had laughed at her, all of them felt very guilty and regretful.
Wang Xiuyu did not die and was rescued, but she did not plan to come back to school. Instead, she decided to return to her hometown and take the college entrance examination tomorrow.
The matter was considered over, but it was a huge blow to the entire class, and it took everyone a long time to recover.
"Don't think too much. This is Wang Xiuyu's own choice. There's no need to blame yourself."
Afterwards, Zhou Chen comforted the guilty Zhao Yingnan.
He was the one who was most open-minded about Wang Xiu-yu's suicide. He had tried his best to stop it but failed. It was not his fault, and even Dai Bingzhong could not be blamed, after all, he had made it very clear.
Character determines your life. Wang Xiuyu was too strong-willed, had too much self-esteem, was too fragile, and couldn't stand others talking about her. This was the main reason for the tragedy.
As the saying goes, if it rains, my mother will get married.
Some things are destined and cannot be stopped by human power.

Chapter 302: One day off, each planning their own trip
The incident between Wang Xiu Yu and Instructor Dai caused a huge sensation in the military camp and became a major event in the history of military training that year.
But as time passed, the disappearance of the two parties was gradually forgotten.
Even students at Renhe Medical College no longer mention it, as if this matter has become a taboo.
"Because of your military training results, you have been fully recognized by your superiors, and I have also been awarded a third-class collective merit."
"Thank you, thank you for your full support and help in my work."
Sun Jianjun smiled and expressed his sincere gratitude, and saluted Zhou Chen and the others.
Suddenly, everyone smiled and applauded to express their blessings.
During the time when Instructor Dai was away, or perhaps because of Wang Xiu-yu's incident, everyone trained extra seriously, so they made great progress and received several compliments from the leaders. This also earned Sun Jianjun, the instructor, praise and rewards.
In fact, all the classmates are quite impressed with Sun Jianjun. The most important thing is that Sun Jianjun knows how to behave and he can always find the right balance.
Unlike Dai Bingzhong, he has no sense of humanity at all and everything must be done according to his own way.
This approach may satisfy the people above, but for the students being trained, there is a strong resistance and it is difficult for them to accept it.
Sun Jianjun's method of alternating looseness and tightness is more popular and convincing.
"Okay, okay, thank you everyone, thank you everyone."
Sun Jianjun's face never stopped smiling, because he knew that after receiving the third-class merit this time, as long as nothing unexpected happened in the future, he would be retained in the army and promoted to officer, which was a foregone conclusion.
He was sincerely grateful to everyone for this achievement. After all, if Zhou Chen and the others did not cooperate, he would not be able to do it alone.
The normal configuration is two instructors per platoon, but because Instructor Dai was transferred, Sun Jianjun led the platoon alone. Being able to lead a team alone and achieve excellent results is what the leaders above value the most.
"In order to fully recognize the unremitting efforts of all students, after repeated requests to the superiors, I personally strive for a benefit for everyone. Tomorrow, all of us in the second platoon of the third company will have a day off."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes widened.
"But according to the regulations, if more than four people go out, they must wear military uniforms, and if less than two people go out, they must wear casual clothes. They must return to the team before dinner. Please abide by the rules and protect the collective image of college students."
"Now, everyone, stand at ease, stand at attention, dismissed."
As Sun Jianjun said to dismiss, more than 20 students roared excitedly at the same time, venting the excitement in their hearts.
"Great, I can finally go out."
"Yeah, that's exciting."
"..."
After being locked up in the military camp for several months, everyone has been feeling suffocated. Although they had free time before, it was all confined to the military camp and they were not allowed to leave the camp at all.
But this time it was different. Not only could they leave the barracks, but they also had a whole day to rest. This meant that they could go wherever they wanted as long as they came back before dinner.
One day's holiday means nothing to many people, but it depends on the time. If you haven't been out for several months, having a day to relax is exciting enough.
Since entering the military camp, only Zhou Chen has gone out. Now everyone has the opportunity to go out, and everyone is very excited.
A group of people jumped and skipped to the cafeteria. While eating, everyone discussed where to go for fun tomorrow.
"Zhou Chen, where are you going to go tomorrow on holiday?"
Xinyi munched on a steamed bun and asked Zhou Chen, "Last time you took a week off and went to Yanjing City, you must have visited a lot of places, right?"
Zhou Chen: "I was there to do some serious work, so I didn't have time to think about that. I just visited a few places casually. But this time I only have one day off, so even if I wanted to go somewhere, there wouldn't be enough time. The most I could do was visit some nearby scenic spots and historical sites."
Hou Pu agreed, "What Zhou Chen said is right. I plan to find a scenic spot nearby to receive patriotic education."
Huangqi said: "I don't want to go anywhere tomorrow. I just want to lie in bed and sleep."
Instead, Gu Ming asked Zhou Chen, "Zhou Chen, how long did it take you to go to the city last time? I want to go to the city, but I'm afraid I don't have enough time."
Zhou Chen said: "If it's only one day, I advise you to forget it, because it's too late."
If it were the transportation of the future, there would be enough time to play after a round trip. But with the current transportation, there is not enough time even for a round trip, let alone playing.
"Oh." Gu Ming sighed in disappointment.
Qiu Shui said, "Xiao Bai, why are you sighing? It's not easy to get a holiday. Don't go back to the city in such a short time. Think about where to go to have fun."
"Right."
Gu Ming's depression came and went quickly. His eyes lit up, and he quickly dropped his bowl and chopsticks and secretly ran to Xiao Hong, ready to invite her out to play.
Seeing this scene, everyone at the dinner table looked at Qiu Shui.
Xin Yi even laughed and said, "Qiu Shui, your competitor Xiao Bai is already preparing to invite Xiao Hong, and you don't have any reaction at all?"
"Stop making trouble and stop talking nonsense."
Qiu Shui shouted at Xin Yi, but his eyes couldn't help but look over there.
"Look at you, pretending not to care, but sneaking glances at me furtively. In this respect, you are far worse than me." Xinyi said sarcastically.
Qiu Shui: "So what are you going to do tomorrow?"
Xinyi said exaggeratedly: "I have planned a great plan."
Qiu Shui sneered and said, "Traveling with a knife?"
Zhou Chen said, "Don't blame me for discouraging you. Don't make such a grand plan. Wait until you can invite the demon sword."
"Hey, Zhou Chen, why do you always try to undermine my confidence? I'm finally preparing to use my ultimate move, please don't let your bad mouth ruin me." Xinyi shouted in dissatisfaction.
At this time, Gu Ming came back with a smile on his face. Qiu Shui was a little nervous, but didn't know how to ask, so Xinyi asked instead.
"Xiaobai, what's going on here?"
Gu Ming said with a smile: "Xiao Hong said she would give me a reply in five minutes, hehe."
"Tsk, with that expression on your face, I thought you succeeded. After all this time, you're still waiting for a reply."
Gu Ming didn't care about everyone's teasing and asked Qiu Shui, "Qiu Shui, what about you? What are you going to do tomorrow?"
Qiu Shui said, "I've been thinking about this. I've already found out that there is only one movie theater in the county town within a radius of more than 100 kilometers. I'm going to go to the county town to watch a movie, Farewell My Concubine. Comrades, I've been waiting to watch this movie since it was filmed. Now it's finally released. It happens to be a holiday tomorrow, so the timing is perfect."
"But there is a problem now. I don't know where to get movie tickets because I can't go out right now. If I buy them tomorrow, I'm afraid I'll be too late. It's so annoying."
“Is this movie really that good?”
Squad leader Hou Pu asked in confusion. He came from the countryside and had never been to a movie theater since he was a child. At most, he had watched anti-Japanese war films projected in the countryside, so he didn't quite understand Qiu Shui's feelings.
Qiu Shui said: "Needless to say, this is a collaboration between Director Chen and Hong Kong Island's brother, it's the blockbuster of the year."
"Who is Hong Kong Island's brother?" Houpu asked curiously.
Qiu Shui pointed at him and said, "Forget it. We have nothing in common. You don't know him, and you wouldn't understand even if I told you. He's a superstar. Who among you knows him?"
"I know."
"I know that too. It's just Brother Zhang. I know."
