The Commander's Useless Wife Is Actually a Hidden Boss!-Chapter 14 - 0 Side Investigation

After we parted ways, Monger confidently led me to the registration area. Along the way, we encountered many groups of students, young and vigorous in their military academy uniforms, strikingly handsome and beautiful across various hair and eye colors. Credit where credit's due, genetic modification in interstellar humans had significantly improved their height and appearance.

Everywhere I looked, there were attractive young men and women.

"Monger, how long have you been serving as the assistant to Mr. Major General?" Lin Fu, intrigued, figured Monger was reliable and could provide plenty of useful information.

"One and a half years," Monger answered honestly, "but the Commander is an outstanding graduate of our academy. Top achievers can get praised by the Commander, and there's even the opportunity to intern aboard a starship."

"It seems you were quite impressive at school."

Lin Fu caught on. It wasn't easy for just anyone to get an internship under Fu Xing, let alone an opportunity to be the personal assistant to the Supreme Commander. It was undoubtedly a job with great prospects.

It was like gold-plating one's resume by being close to the highest officer.

Speaking of his expertise, the young, bashful assistant revealed a confident smile, "I did beat a lot of my peers."

"Haha... Impressive."

Monger smiled shyly, thinking although the Commander's wife was young, she was nothing like what people said about her on the Star Network—beautiful, polite, and very agreeable.

"Monger, are we friends now?"

"Of course," Monger, young and easily embarrassed yet professionally trained, knew well what to say and what not to say, "Lady, you..."

"Just call me Lin Fu."

"Isn't that... inappropriate?"

"What's inappropriate about it? I'm nineteen and just started school. Technically, I'm your junior, right? Although it's at different military academies, the first Military Academy and the Albert Non-Commissioned Officer College have deep connections, don't they? We've always presented a united front."

Monger felt a bit uneasy, "It's true we present a united front, but the rivalry between us is also quite fierce."

Lin Fu: ...

This guy really is straightforward.

"Does your Commander have someone he likes?"

"No..."

Lin Fu caught Monger off-guard with her sudden question. As soon as he realized he shouldn't be discussing the Commander's private matters, his face went red.

"It's okay! If I don't tell and you don't tell, no one will know," Lin Fu patted Monger's shoulder to comfort him, "Aren't we friends now? What's wrong with friends discussing personal matters? Nothing, so relax!"

Monger felt like crying, suspecting he'd been duped.

"So, your Commander really has no one he likes? Never dated anyone?"

"Really, no." Since the conversation had already started, Monger didn't hold back, "Many people like the Commander, but he's always busy. He often has to suppress rebellions and station himself on duties, so many who are interested simply can't find the opportunity."

"What about during his school days? They say that's the best time to fall in love."

Monger immediately looked at her skeptically.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Lady, you're about to start school," Monger hinted.

Lin Fu smiled wryly, "Right! Quick thinking there! You just reversed the move on me."

Monger showed his bashful smile again, but this time Lin Fu knew better than to think he was actually bashful.

Indeed, how could an actual bashful and honest person be so heavily relied upon by Fu Xing? It wouldn't be possible even if he wanted to favor a younger classmate.

"Lady, you..."

"I said, call me Lin Fu."

"Alright! Lin Fu, you're different from what the Star Network says."
