Unexpectedly, Xiao Bao suddenly turned around and buried herself in Pei Yuchen's arms, refusing to let her touch her.

The woman's expression froze.

That child is so impolite.

She was dissatisfied, but dared not complain to his face.

Looking at the aloof and handsome man in front of her, she felt a pang of sadness.

Unable to resist asking, "Hey, where's your wife, Brother Pei? Didn't she come to celebrate Children's Day with the kids?"

They were old comrades-in-arms with Pei Yuchen, but only five years ago.

When Pei Yuchen was suddenly transferred, the army held a social gathering for him before he left.

She attended the event as well.

At that time, she had her eye on a man who held a higher position than Pei Yuchen, but not Pei Yuchen.

It wasn't because she didn't like it, but because her family didn't approve.

At that time, the Pei family was not well-off. Although Pei Yuchen had made a name for himself, she had second thoughts when she heard that he was going to be transferred and that she didn't know when he would return.

Everyone says being a military wife is tough, but here, at least you can see your husband every now and then.

But Pei Yuchen was different. He was transferred to a remote area. Life there was so difficult. Not only would they not see each other for years, but even if he stayed there to develop his career, he would have to move there with his unit.

Those remote areas are already quite underdeveloped.

Life is not only unsatisfactory, but the children's education is also poor.

All things considered, she naturally didn't choose him.

Later I heard that he married a girl from the countryside.

The girl wasn't from the family compound either; her living conditions were very poor.

She passed away the day after her wedding and remained gone for five years.

She was still filled with regret at the time, thankful that she hadn't chosen him on a whim.

But who would have thought that five years later, Pei Yuchen would suddenly return to develop his career.

Now he's even a captain.

Her husband had to retire recently due to an injury and couldn't even find a job.

She asked around and found out that the captain's salary was shockingly high.

I started to get restless.

The man I used to look down on is now doing so well.

She couldn't quite describe her feelings; they were just very complicated.

Seeing Pei Yuchen now, I felt inexplicably excited.

This was the first time she had met him since he returned.

Pei Yuchen was very handsome and had a cold demeanor before.

While he was in the military, many women talked about him in private.

If it weren't for his poor family circumstances, he would have been robbed long ago.

She actually regrets it too. If she hadn't cared so much back then, maybe she would be the one living a good life now.

With such a high salary, what kind of life can't you live on?

Pei Yuchen is now more composed and has a superior demeanor than he did back then.

It doesn't seem like the husband has become fat and ugly.

However, I heard that their relationship as a couple is not very harmonious.

She had initially thought it was just a rumor, but now that she saw that he was the only one who came to Children's Day, she wondered if it was really true.

Now that Pei Yuchen is so successful, he must regret choosing that girl.

After all, the other party's conditions were really too poor.

"Xiao Bao." At this moment, Song Yanzhi rushed over from school.

I happened to run into a group of people.

Xiao Bao immediately twisted his body and got out of Pei Yuchen's arms, ran over and called out, "Mommy."

As he spoke, he took her hand.

Song Yanzhi smiled and rubbed the little guy's head, then looked at his clothes.

Because she was going to perform today and needed to wear a white shirt, she was a little worried that Pei Yuchen might forget.

I came over as soon as I finished the meeting.

But seeing that the little guy was dressed neatly and his red scarf was new, she felt relieved.

She looks to be in good condition.

The group of people who were talking immediately looked over when they heard Xiaobao call for his mother.

They were all surprised at that glance.

Xiao Bao is fine, he looks a lot like Pei Yuchen, so he's very cute and handsome at a young age, but Song Yanzhi is someone they've never seen before.

They were all low-level people at the time and didn't attend Pei Yuchen's wedding, so naturally they didn't know what Song Yanzhi looked like.

I only vaguely heard from others that although her family was very poor, she was good-looking.

Looking at it now, it's clear it wasn't just hype.

She wore a white dress with a belted waist, revealing her slender and straight calves, and black leather shoes, which made her skin look even whiter and more delicate.

Her hair was loose and tied up, and she looked radiant and elegant. She smiled as she spoke to Xiaobao, her eyes were gentle and delicate, and she was tall and beautiful, making it hard to look away.

This is what Captain Pei's wife said, and the men instantly exclaimed "Holy crap!"

This is so beautiful!

Anyway, she has the kind of aloof goddess look that they think would look down on them.

No wonder I heard that Pei Yuchen gave up his promotion in the west and chose to come back to develop his career.

No wonder the captain, who used to be so cold, is now so gentle with his son.

With a beautiful wife and son at home, how could he not be gentle?

If it were them, they'd be laughing in their sleep.

Not to mention that their first child was a son.

No need to face pressure from parents.

Thinking about it this way, I felt even more envious.

The woman who was just speaking had a different expression than the others.

She wasn't envious, but rather inexplicably sour.

She always believed that Pei Yuchen was not good enough, which was why he chose an even worse woman.

So I always thought his wife was just average.

I never expected her to be so beautiful. Standing in front of me, she was taller and had a much better presence than her.

She worked as a logistics staff member in the army, a position that wasn't low, and her living conditions in the family compound were relatively good. She was always very proud of this, so she always had high standards.
