In the military, He Xuebing was very depressed. He couldn't get leave, nor could he see Xia Xiao, to explain things to her. Sometimes he was in a poor mental state, which resulted in him getting punished.
He Xuegang also severely reprimanded He Xuebing, saying that if He Xuebing continued this way, he would write home to their parents and tell them that He Xuebing was not concentrating because of Xia Xiao, not training properly, and being absent-minded.
One could imagine, if He Xuegang really did write such a letter, how He Hongjun and Li Shengmei would view Xia Xiao.
He Xuebing knew the consequences himself, so he didn't dare to cause trouble for Xia Xiao, which made things slightly better.
On Dong Meihua's end, assisting Li Shengmei with her work, mistakes kept happening. But now, with Li Shengmei in a good mood, she didn't hold it against Dong Meihua; after all, she was family.
But Dong Meihua's mood had hit rock bottom.
