Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Guan Qing was at home discussing the issue she had with Hen Zhiyuan with her father, the army commander when she heard a commotion at the door.

"Xiaozhang, what’s going on? Why is it so noisy outside?" Guan Qing was already in a bad mood, and hearing this noise only increased her irritability.

"Report! Hen... Vice Commander Hen’s wife is outside with a kitchen knife, saying she wants to chop... chop you up." The security guard stammered as he reported the difficult situation.

"Crazy woman! Block her for me; do not let her in. If you can’t handle it alone, call the security company and get more people out here," Guan Qing said angrily.

"Ridiculous!" The army commander chided his daughter in a low voice, then said to the security guard, "Let her in."

"Yes, Commander!"

Ma Mei barged in furiously, still holding a kitchen knife, and with a slam, she hurled the knife forcefully onto the table in front of Guan Qing.

The tip of the knife embedded into the wood, its gleaming blade casting a cold light under the lamp.

"What do you think you’re doing?" Guan Qing frowned coldly, looking up at Ma Mei. "Is this the place for you to behave so recklessly, in a commander’s home?"

"What do I want to do?" Ma Mei’s face was full of anger, her eyes nearly spitting fire, "I want to ask you what you’re doing? To think I trusted you, only to have my own home taken over by a seductress. Guan Qing, how could you do such a thing? Where have I wronged you? You and... you two have been sneaking around behind my back..."

"Sister-in-law, now you’re accusing me unfairly. You can go ask Zhiyuan, who sought whom that night—was it he who wanted me, or I who wanted him? And besides, is now the time to discuss this? Zhiyuan is about to be discharged! With a dishonorable record, what kind of job can he get after transferring out? Can’t you think about that for him?" Guan Qing spoke coolly, her voice mixed with disdain for Ma Mei.
