Chen Rou nodded and said with a smile, "But because of the wave of liberation, Chen Juan woke up and changed her destiny. Your daughter, another Chen Rou, is the same. Even though she is just an orphan, as a third generation, when all women change and the whole social ecology changes, she has a springboard to move upward and she will go higher."
Chen Ke picked up the teacup, paused for a moment, and then said, "So when the revolutionary tide came, my grandmother was unable to restrain my aunt, and my daughter, even without me, could go to higher and farther places?"
But he still felt something was wrong: "No, the social environment is very cruel."
Chen Rou said, "Yes, it shouldn't be possible, but if someone, like Yue Zhongqi, is willing to train her, then it's fine. Just like when Chen Juan joined the revolutionary ranks with a hoe, someone would naturally lend a helping hand."
The bond between comrades who have fought side by side is incomparable to that of blood brothers; it is true brotherhood.
From a materialist perspective, Chen Ke could neither believe nor accept it.
But like Yue Zhongqi, he also had a mystery in his mind: who taught such an outstanding Arou?
At that moment, he suddenly understood. He saw in Chen Rou the cunning and keenness that Yue Zhongqi had in mind, and he saw a more worldly side of her that was different from his.
He understood that when his daughter grew up, she would be the dazzling and radiant Arou she is today.
She was so outstanding that he had to look up to her, just like his former aunt, whom he could only look up to.
Chen Ke, of course, couldn't understand or imagine going back more than thirty years.
But he understood, and he reached out his hand: "So you are Arou."
Chen Rou reached out and shook Chen Ke's hand, saying, "Yes, Dad, hello, Dad!"
Chen Ke held Chen Rou's hand tightly, choking back tears, "I'm sorry, I think... I'm sorry... I shouldn't have..."
He was so negligent. How could he make a mistake on such a simple thing and miss out on spending time with his child?
He felt he was not a good father, and at that moment Chen Ke felt extremely guilty.
But Chen Rou said, "That's not how it is, Dad. Reform and revolution both require bloodshed and sacrifice. Many Chen Juans died on the way to escape, so that one could survive. Similarly, many Chen Kes sacrificed themselves, and the experience gained allowed my master to better train me. Each generation has its own revolution and mission. I am one, and so are you."
Chen Ke seemed to have been persuaded by Chen Rou and finally understood: "Because if you live, the other A Rou will not exist and will never come back. But you are the A Rou that is with me and your sister-in-law."
Chen Rou smiled, pressing her nose: "Look how great this is! You've been spared the process of raising a child, and I'm already so grown up."
Chen Ke suddenly reached for his phone: "My phone. I need to tell your sister-in-law to stop being so persistent. I've found you for her."
Chen Rou corrected her father: "That's not my sister-in-law, she's my mother."
If she weren't her biological mother, but just her cousin-in-law, Chen Rou and Li Xia wouldn't have had such a good relationship.
Perhaps this was a dream; Chen Ke felt extremely dizzy.
But his heart was filled with nothing but regret and happiness.
He still felt extremely guilty, but he felt that he would no longer have to live with the nightmare of constantly losing his daughter.
A heavy stone in his heart was thus removed.
At the same time, he also realized something: "I never liked to cause trouble for others, and I also felt that good people would be rewarded. In the past, I even thought that society and officialdom were like the army, and everyone was like me."
Chen Rou had intended to tell A Ke everything during her trip, but she originally planned to wait until after Er Ye's matter was resolved.
The reason I'm talking about it tonight, and especially focusing on the mistakes Chen Ke made in his previous life, is to make him realize the truth.
She said, "Even if those people who want to get rid of you can't find a reason right now, they will eventually find one. Dad, you're not causing trouble for others; you're protecting yourself, protecting yourself, and protecting your subordinates."
Given his nature, he wouldn't pull strings when he was under investigation, so he's even less likely to do so now that the matter is over.
So if Chen Rou hadn't told him these things, his old superior would never have known about the bullying he had suffered.
If this continues, the other side will eventually find a way to kick him out.
There's a very simple way to describe this: the squeaky wheel gets the grease.
Chen Ke nodded again: "When we eat, I will tell the old leader everything that happened at work."
Suddenly, the clock struck, and he looked up: "It's already 12 o'clock?"
Chen Rou said, "You shouldn't go back. Just sleep with Yuan Chao."
Because of the snow, there were almost no taxis on the street today, making it quite difficult for Chen Ke to get back.
He nodded, picked up the Snow Maple Blade, but couldn't help asking, "Our training program doesn't include swordsmanship, especially cavalry swordsmanship. Arou, where did you learn it?"
Chen Rou smiled and said, "Didn't you ever think that from now on, when we have peace, we will also focus on cultivating a special forces team like the US Navy SEALs?"
Chen Ke thought for a moment and said, "So you mean that there will be girls who are so outstanding that they can be selected from the female special forces and enter a higher level of the military?"
There are female special forces soldiers in the military. To stand out from them and compete with male soldiers, how outstanding must they be?
Of course, the woman standing in front of Chen Ke at this moment, Chen Rou, is indeed capable.
Chen Ke finally smiled from the bottom of his heart, even though he was still extremely apologetic and sad.
He couldn't imagine what kind of life his daughter would have lived without his support and care.
But who could have imagined that he would eventually find his daughter?
...
When his phone alarm rang, Song Yuanchao was having a wet dream, the scenes of which were utterly disgusting.
When he suddenly opened his eyes, he found that reality was even more unbearable.
He didn't know how he ended up on the young lady's bed, nor how his coat disappeared. In despair, he touched his pants, and thankfully, they were still there. So he probably hadn't made a huge mistake.
He slammed down his phone and was about to sit up when the young lady wrapped her arms around him again.
Song Yuanchao suddenly remembered that she had a fever last night. He reached out to touch her forehead and, thankfully, it had cooled down.
He tiptoed out of bed, picked up his clothes, tucked Nie Han into bed, and helped her straighten her messy hair. Then he quietly left the house, gently closed the door, and went straight to his own room. He looked around and listened carefully to Secretary An's room. He heard running water in her room, guessing that she had just gotten up and was taking a shower. He thought to himself that he was lucky no one had seen him.
But when he pushed open the door to the guest room, he was shocked to see Captain Chen Ke folding blankets.
