When the people saw the couple, they were a little awkward initially, but eventually, someone among them took the lead, and everyone called out in unison, "Nice to meet you, Sister-in-law!"
Li Beinian shivered at the thunderous greeting.
As Mu Xichen had his arms around her, he detected her reaction.
Immediately, he glowered and warned them. "You're scaring her!"
These people from the military forces were used to shouting and weren't aware of their error.
The boorish men were dumbfounded by Mu Xichen's reaction and exchanged looks among themselves. Immediately, they called out in unison again, "Apologies, Sister-in-law!"
Li Beinian studied them for a moment and finally said with an unfathomable expression, "It was you guys on the island previously, wasn't it? Did you guys retire collectively?"
The men stood as straight as a pencil and responded in unison to her question, "Swift Eagle advances and retreats with the Chief!"
