When Tang Yue got off work, she saw Tang Shengkai standing at the entrance of the training field waiting for her from afar.

It was a wonderful feeling. Going to and from get off work with her father, Tang Yue felt closer to Tang Shengkai.

She quickened her pace, and before she even got close, she called out from afar, "Dad!"

In a flash, Tang Shengkai was locked onto by several pairs of eyes. Tang Shengkai felt extremely uncomfortable, and at the same time, he realized that tomorrow everyone in the entire South Island Corps would know that he, Tang Shengkai, was the father of Company Commander Tang.

His father was just a raw recruit in the Third Battalion, while his daughter had already become the company commander of the Fourth Company of the First Battalion.

Tang Shengkai felt a little embarrassed. But then he thought, his daughter is amazing, so wouldn't he, as her father, be proud too? After figuring it out, he just grinned at his daughter.

"Hey! Come on, honey, let's go home for dinner."

Amidst the envious, jealous, or surprised gazes of the crowd, Tang Shengkai took Tang Yue's small hand and embarked on the road home.

"Girl, you're amazing! You've become famous throughout the entire army today."

Who doesn't know that there's a company commander named Tang in the South Island Corps these days?

Hearing her father's praise, Tang Yue felt a warm glow inside. "Yes, Dad, you should keep it up too!"

Tang Shengkai...

Even if he fills up the gas tank, he still can't catch up to one ten-thousandth of his daughter's speed.

However, Tang Shengkai would occasionally have doubts. Looking at the little girl in front of him and recalling the skinny, sallow-faced little girl he used to hold in his arms, Tang Shengkai couldn't bear to connect the two.

Sensing the change in Tang Shengkai's aura, Tang Yue remained silent, walking quietly on. Some things cannot be explained; she was simply herself. She was willing to wholeheartedly treat this family as her own, and those in the Xuanmen sect placed even greater emphasis on cause and effect.

She used their daughter's body, so naturally she had to take on that responsibility. But if this family didn't trust her and didn't treat her like family, well, she would still hug her, but the way she did it would change. It all depended on whether Tang Shengkai could understand these things himself.

Tang Shengkai tightened his grip on Tang Yue's hand. "Daughter, how did you learn all that today?"

Tang Yue's voice remained flat and soft, "Shooting is something you can learn just by watching. As for the others, I have spiritual power. With a little bit of it, they're no match for me."

Tang Shengkai was quite happy to hear this, "Daughter, when will I be able to circulate my spiritual energy as freely as my daughter?"

Tang Yue tilted her head slightly and saw Tang Shengkai's face full of sincerity, his eyes filled with love and admiration for his daughter. The slight unease she had felt just moments before vanished instantly.

Tang Yue smiled and said, "Then Daddy has to work hard. Right now you can only absorb spiritual energy. Once you reach the first level of Qi Refining, your body will undergo a great change, and then you will be able to use spiritual energy to influence your body's reactions."

"Hmm, hearing my daughter say that, I'm already quite impatient."

"Come on, let's hurry home for dinner. We have evening classes later."

"Evening class?"

Tang Shengkai noticed the confusion in his daughter's eyes and quickly explained, "Yes, there are evening classes every night in the army. They teach other things, which are things that we soldiers have to learn. You have to go with us, honey."

Tang Yue thought it was a good idea, since she had been studying on her own most of the time since she came here, and had never attended a lecture before, so this was a good opportunity to learn more.

When they got home, Lin Cuicui was beaming with joy as she carried out the food. The three Tang brothers were helping her, and Old Li was moving chairs for the meal.

Lin Cuicui looked up and saw the father and daughter return, and quickly waved, "Quick, daughter, wash your hands and come eat. You must be exhausted after a long day at work."

Tang Yue felt her mother was being overly enthusiastic today. "What good news is there today?"

Lin Cuicui chuckled, "Yes, isn't there some good news? Our little Company Commander Tang's name has spread throughout the entire military region, how could I not be happy?"

Tang Nan and the others came over with smiles and stood in front of Tang Yue. Tang Nan bent down slightly and said, "Little sister, the whole family compound has been talking about you today."

They're really praising you to the skies! Now everyone knows there's a little Company Commander Tang in the corps, just over four years old, who's incredibly skilled. He's even better than soldiers who've been training for years.

What makes them most proud is that Company Commander Xiao Tang still lives in the family compound.

Mom didn't do anything all day; she just entertained all the aunties, grandmas, and grandmothers in the compound. Everyone wanted to see what Company Commander Tang looked like.

Haha, we had to carry two extra buckets of water from our water tank today.

Tang Yue's face darkened slightly; her second brother's analogy really made her uncomfortable.

Lin Cuicui urged, "Alright, Ernan, hurry up and have your sister come over for dinner. She's been working all day and is very tired."

Tang Bei and Tang Dong looked at Tang Yue with concern, "Little sister, are you tired after a long day at work? Come and rest for a while."

Tang Dong pulled Tang Yue and pressed her down onto a chair. Tang Nan had already run over to fetch the washbasin, and Tang Bei had prepared a hand towel.

Tang Shengkai stood at the doorway watching the family's interaction; they seemed to have forgotten he even existed.

When Old Li brought out the bowl, he saw Tang Shengkai standing at the door, lost in thought.

"What are you standing there for? Go wash your hands and eat. Who are you waiting for to serve you?" While scolding Tang Shengkai, she placed a full bowl of rice porridge on the table in front of Tang Yue.

Tang Shengkai...

That's so heartbreaking, isn't it?

As soon as they finished eating, Tang Shengkai urged, "Daughter, let's go, let's digest our food a bit, it'll be time for evening class soon."
