Upon hearing this, Jiang Yinyin, her mother, and Shen Mingzhi were all dumbfounded.

Jiang Yinyin and her mother disliked Shen Mingzhi the most and hoped that Jiang Shaochen would marry Song Wanyin.

As a result, Jiang Shaozhen's superiors approved the marriage application. And right there in the military headquarters, in front of so many people, if they said no, wouldn't they be disgracing the Jiang family?

Even if they are unwilling, they can only endure and suppress their feelings now.

The leader noticed Shen Mingzhi's stunned and silent expression.

In other words, Shen Mingzhi's outburst was simply because she thought Jiang Shaozhen was going to be executed, and she came to protect him.

It seems that Shen Mingzhi has no intention of forcing Jiang Shaochen to marry her.

The leader immediately began to admire Shen Mingzhi: "I didn't expect you to be like this. You are decisive and responsible, and you are not afraid of anyone. Just for your spirit, even if Jiang Shaozhen doesn't apply for marriage with me, I will find a way to help you solve the problem of your child's household registration."

"Although you did not register your marriage with Zhang Ping, your benefits will still be paid according to the standards for widows. Our army will not mistreat any family member."

Shen Mingzhi was overjoyed when her boss said that. "In that case, I don't need to marry Jiang Shaochen."

She traveled a long way and went through great lengths to find the Jiang family, hoping to find a glimmer of hope to survive.

Now that Jiang Shao-chen won't be executed and her child's household registration can be resolved, there's no need for her and Jiang Shao-chen to be tied together anymore.

The leader's face darkened and he said sternly, "I've already approved the marriage application. Now you're saying you don't want to get married? What are you doing?"

"They're probably trying to get something out of it!"

I don't know who shouted that.

Shen Mingzhi turned her head and saw the leader's increasingly ugly face, as well as the men who had just laughed at her.

She didn't expect that in the next instant, she would see Jiang Shaozhen appear at the door.

Jiang Shao Chen strode towards her. "What brings you here?"

"I'm here to make things clear..."

Before she could finish speaking, Shen Mingzhi felt everything go black, and she fainted in Jiang Shaozhen's arms.

Jiang Shaozhen scooped Shen Mingzhi up in his arms. "Chief, I'll take her to the hospital first."

"Go."

As soon as the leader finished speaking, Jiang Shaozhen carried Shen Mingzhi away.

Jiang Yinyin and her mother quickly followed.

The leader glanced at the others in the office. "What are you all still standing here for? Disperse!"

With the leader having spoken, no one else dared to stay in the office any longer.

Everyone dispersed.

Jiang Guofu came over and happened to bump into the leader who was about to leave.

"Old Gu, where are they?"

Jiang Guofu didn't see anyone in the office, so he subconsciously looked at the leader opposite him.

This leader was Jiang Guofu's comrade-in-arms, and the two had a good relationship.

Old Gu chuckled and patted Jiang Guofu on the shoulder, "Old Jiang, your daughter-in-law has a good personality. I'll definitely give you a big gift for the wedding. You, help me persuade Shao Chen to consider what I mentioned."

Jiang Guofu laughed awkwardly twice.

At this point, it seems that Shen Mingzhi is destined to be a member of the Jiang family and is destined to enter the Jiang family's door.

However, he also laid it all out beforehand: "You know Shao Chen's temper. Once he's made a decision, nothing can change it."

"Anyway, you should try to persuade them. So many people would kill for this opportunity." Old Gu patted Jiang Guofu on the shoulder again and walked away.

Jiang Guofu stood still, his face extremely solemn.

...

Health center.

Jiang Shaozhen stayed by Shen Mingzhi's bedside.

He noticed Shen Mingzhi as soon as she opened her eyes.

He asked anxiously and worriedly, "How are you? Is anything bothering you?"

When Shen Mingzhi heard Jiang Shaozhen's voice and noticed her surroundings, she was terrified when she realized she was in a hospital.

"How did I end up at the hospital?"

Shen Mingzhi recalled.

She barely exchanged two words with Jiang Shaozhen when she saw him.

Jiang Shaozhen pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "The doctor said it's because your body is too weak after giving birth. I'll go and call a doctor for you."

"Need not……"

Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Shaozhen strode out of the ward.

A short while later, Jiang Shaozhen brought back a doctor wearing a white coat.

The doctor examined her with a stethoscope and said, "There's nothing seriously wrong. She's just too weak after giving birth. Go home and take good care of yourself during your postpartum period. Eat more chicken to help you recover."

"Okay, thank you, doctor."

After seeing the doctor off, Jiang Shaozhen returned to Shen Mingzhi's side.

Shen Mingzhi had not forgotten what the leaders and those people had said in the office.

She felt it was necessary to make things clear with Jiang Shaozhen.

Before she could even speak, Jiang Shaozhen preemptively said, "The marriage application has been approved. My idea is that we'll get married after you finish your postpartum confinement. Do you have any requirements?"

Jiang Shaozhen sat upright in the chair with his hands on his knees.

His expression was serious, and there was no hint of joking in his eyes.

At the time, she was just hoping to have a safe haven. She was just trying it out and didn't necessarily want to marry Jiang Shaochen.

Furthermore, Jiang Shaochen signed the papers for her when she gave birth. In this era where everything requires a signature and is particularly troublesome, Jiang Shaochen's actions show that he is an exceptionally good person.

She can no longer keep Jiang Shaochen tied up.

"Well, I didn't think it through when I brought it up. Marriage is out of the question. Didn't your boss already say that I'll be treated as a martyr's widow? And I already have a child..."

"If you don't get married, how will you register your child's birth?"

Jiang Shaozhen interrupted her, his expression still serious.

Shen Mingzhi lowered her head and said, "Your boss said he would help me find a solution."

"The most urgent thing right now is to register the child's household registration. Besides, my marriage application has already been approved. Do you think the leaders would allow us to go back on our word?"

Jiang Shaozhen's words instantly shut down any possibility of Shen Mingzhi speaking.

He even said, "Everyone in the compound knows you exist. If you leave at this time, what will others think of our Jiang family?"

After analyzing each word carefully, Shen Mingzhi realized that this marriage was inevitable.

Although she had only known Jiang Shaozhen for a short time, she knew clearly that he was an upright person.

The Jiang family is rich and powerful; she won't lose out by marrying Jiang Shao-chen.

But now she's just feeling guilty.

Jiang Shaozhen is a golden bachelor. She has two children, and the father of the children is unknown.

This is not fair to Jiang Shaozhen.

“Jiang Shao Chen, I really had no other choice before. I had nowhere else to go, that's why I came to the Jiang family…”

"I know."

With those three simple and straightforward words, Jiang Shaozhen's expression remained unchanged.

It seems that Jiang Shaozhen's mind is made up and the overall situation is settled.
