When Liu Jiu got home, she first told her father what had happened.
"Dad, I just got into a fight with two boys at the training field."
Are you injured?
Gu Ye's first thought was whether his daughter was injured. Although he knew his daughter was capable, there were always people more skilled than him, especially the children in the military compound, who had basically been trained by their families since they were young.
"Dad, my sister wasn't hurt. It's just that Liang Yuan from the Liang family is targeting my sister for some reason. We had no prior dealings with her."
Today, she immediately started saying my sister got into a group fight, and that she's a girl who's always fighting with men, so she's not a good person. How could I let her slander my sister? I argued with her for a bit, and wow, when she couldn't win the argument, she burst into tears. The tears flowed like a tap, uncontrollably…
Sanqi recounted the whole story from beginning to end without embellishing anything, and Xuanyi added his own comments.
"It's okay, I understand. You did the right thing today."
When you're out, take care of each other. If anything happens, come back and let us know. That's the right thing to do. Go wash up. If you get along well, play together; if not, that's fine too. We won't force it.
Gu Ye believed in his children. They had their own ideas about doing things, and they wouldn't make trouble unreasonably or bully others because of their strength.
The children went upstairs, and Gu Ye went back to his room.
"What's wrong? Did you have a fight?"
Bonnie vaguely heard something about a fight, but she didn't hear it clearly.
"I got into a fight with some kids from the compound, but it was nothing serious, and it was handled quite well. There are quite a few kids in this compound, from the commander's family, the political commissar's family, the chief of staff's family... If we can play together, we play together; if we can't, then we don't."
Gu Ye had no such intention as to establish any connection with the leader's family through his child or daughter-in-law.
"Fighting? Then it's fine. Liu Jiu isn't the kind of kid who would easily get into a fight. Xuan Yi and San Qi know their own abilities."
Bonnie wasn't worried. What's wrong with kids fighting? She was always getting into fights when she was little.
The carefree couple didn't take it seriously and got ready to go to sleep.
The Liang family is still making trouble.
Chief of Staff Liang is not yet sixty years old. Although he has not abandoned his wife who has shared his hardships, he has been fighting away from home for many years, and sometimes he has not been heard from for several years, and his fate is unknown.
His wife was from the same village as him; she married him when she was sixteen and he was eighteen. To support his education, she worked incredibly hard, which damaged her health. She gave birth to their son at eighteen, and later miscarried, completely ruining her health.
After the victory, he was busy with work and didn't go home often. Later, he finally settled down and wanted to bring them out to live, but her health was failing, and she passed away not long after.
At that time, his son was fourteen years old. He took him with him. A few years later, the organization introduced him to a woman, and they had twins.
Because shortly after his eldest son was born, he went to join the army and wasn't involved in his upbringing at all. Later, when his two younger children were born, perhaps out of a sense of compensation, he doted on them more, especially his younger daughter.
"Dad, Gu Yun Chu is so annoying, I don't like her."
As soon as Liang Yuan got home, she complained to her father, who was sitting on the sofa.
Chief of Staff Jiang looked at his daughter's red, swollen eyes and felt displeased.
"Who is Gu Yun Chu? What did she do to offend you? Your eyes are all red from crying, wipe them clean. Liang Qi, how could you let your sister be bullied?"
Chief of Staff Liang looked at his youngest son; there was a clear footprint on his clothes, indicating he had been in a fight.
"Liang Yuan, you're the one who's wrong, why are you blaming others? I got into a fight with someone just because you're my sister, and you're lying about it?"
Liang Qi was also angry. He had been scolded by Gu Yun Chu and had lost all face. His father didn't even ask why and immediately started criticizing him.
"Explain what happened."
Chief of Staff Liang looked at his resentful youngest son and his evasive youngest daughter, and guessed what was going on. His youngest daughter was feeling guilty.
Liang Qi recounted the whole story from beginning to end, including how he was punished.
"Dad, you need to talk to Liang Yuan. She's not a child anymore. She can't just say whatever she wants. She should think before she speaks!"
"Are the children of the Gu family the children of Commander Gu?"
Chief of Staff Liang also knew Gu Ye. Not only was he capable, but his older brother Gu Ze, although no longer in the military, still had a lot of connections and resources.
Although a division commander is not much in the Beijing Military Region, Gu Ye's division commander title is exceptionally prestigious.
"Yuanyuan, why don't you like Gu Yun Chu? Isn't this your first time meeting?"
After listening for a while, Chief of Staff Liang finally understood. His daughter and the Gu family's daughter didn't know each other before and had no interaction, so why didn't he like her?
"There's no reason why, I just don't like it."
Liang Yuan didn't know how to tell her father why she didn't like Gu Yun Chu. She couldn't explain it herself; she just didn't like him.
"What else could it be? It's just that Zijun and Gu Yunchu were talking, right? Liang Yuan, how old are you? Instead of focusing on your studies, you're thinking about all sorts of nonsense. Is that interesting?"
As expected of twins, Liang Qi understood his sister's thoughts perfectly. He just couldn't understand it; they were only fourteen, and Zi Jun was only seventeen. Wasn't it too early for them to think so much?
"You're talking nonsense. What does this have to do with Brother Zijun? You're slandering me."
Liang Yuan was furious that her secret had been exposed, and ran back to her room.
"Liang Qi, have you really been defeated by the Gu family's girl?"
Chief of Staff Liang didn't take his youngest son's words about Ma Zijun to heart. The child was still young, and who knew what would happen in the future?
