Chapter 59 An unexpected encounter with a mysterious grandfather at the military region?
"You two are in cahoots!"
Wang Qingshan completely broke down his defenses, and he was fawned over wherever he went.
Today, he not only had his fingers almost broken, but he was also thoroughly humiliated by these two people.
Unfortunately, both father and daughter are scoundrels, and no matter what you say, you can't win the argument!
Wang Qingshan clenched his fists, glared at them venomously, and went straight into the house.
Jiang Anchao deliberately said, "Brother Wang, I haven't even paid any compensation yet. You don't want the money back? Then tomorrow I'll have someone from the housing management bureau come and estimate how much the repairs will cost. I'll give it to you. After all, this will be Sister Cuiping's room in the future, so I need to find someone to clean it up properly!"
Wang Qingshan nearly collapsed upon hearing those words.
Zhizhi waved to Aunt Cuiping, "Aunt Cuiping, come home with Zhizhi, we'll sleep in the big bed~"
Cuiping nodded, her eyes filled with gratitude and her voice choked with emotion.
She was about to leave when she was grabbed by the arm as she passed Wang Qingshan, who forced a smile onto his gloomy face.
The smile didn't reach his eyes; to onlookers, it only seemed like a threat.
He said in a voice only the two of them could understand, "You think Jiang Anchao can protect you? He'll be in deep trouble soon. You wait... I won't let you get away with this."
Cuiping took a deep breath and forcefully shook off his hand.
"I'm waiting!"
She followed Zhizhi hand in hand and left the courtyard. Wang Qingshan stood in his living room, looking at the spiderweb-like cracks on the broken window.
The door lock was smashed to pieces, and no one cleaned or tidied up the place; the whole house looked like a garbage dump.
Suddenly, a cold night wind blew by.
Wang Qingshan shivered from the cold. He kicked over the table in a fit of rage, his eyes fixed on his swollen fingers, a growing hatred spreading through him...
*
The commotion was huge that night, and by the next day almost everyone in the military compound knew about this major news.
Little Zhizhi was holding hands with Aunt Cuiping in the first half of the night, afraid that Uncle Wang Qingshan would come and drag her away.
In the latter half of the night, she fell asleep from exhaustion. In her half-asleep state, she seemed to see her mother come over and say that she was sleeping on her back with her little belly up and that she would catch a cold, so she covered her with a blanket.
Then it was Dad and Mom chatting with Aunt Cuiping.
She couldn't hear the specifics clearly because she turned over and fell fast asleep again.
The cub was woken up early the next morning while it was still sound asleep.
Deng Qiu quickly fetched some water for washing her face and instructed her daughter, "Zhizhi, don't go grocery shopping today. Dad and Aunt Cuiping are going to take you somewhere. When you get there, just tell them whatever they ask you."
"Hmm, are we going to Dad's workplace?"
Zhizhi regained her senses a little and looked up at her mother. "Did Wang Qingshan go to Dad's boss to complain?"
"Yes, but don't worry, Zhizhi, the uncles in the military region are all very good people. We have nothing to hide!"
Deng Qiu picked up a comb, intending to braid Zhi Zhi's hair.
But all she knows how to do is braid, while Zhizhi's hair is naturally curly, making it particularly difficult to comb when she gets up early in the morning.
Seeing the little cub grimacing as its scalp was being pulled, Cuiping couldn't bear it any longer. "Um... how about I do it?"
"Okay, I'll go heat up the food first!"
Knowing that she couldn't match Cuiping's dexterity, Deng Qiu simply went to the kitchen.
Cuiping quickly tied Zhizhi's hair into a bow, then took a small black clip and separated the two ends of the bow on top of her head, pinching them into the shape of cat ears.
After the injection was completed, the little cub hopped and skipped around, and you could see the cat ears on its head bobbing and moving along with it.
After quickly finishing her meal, Deng Qiu waved goodbye to them as she rode her bike, saying, "I have class this morning, so I won't be able to take you. You can go ahead."
After saying that, she sped off on her bike and disappeared into the street.
Zhizhi was held in her father's arms, watching her mother's departing figure.
She sighed in her childish voice, "Sigh, things have become distant. Mom didn't even kiss me when she left."
Jiang Anchao nodded in agreement, "Yes, your mother is now only focused on her students and research projects. She didn't even glance at me just now."
Cuiping: "... ..."
She doubted her ears.
Is this still the renowned Commander Jiang?
Is this still the sharp-tongued Xiao Zhizhi?
The two of them are exactly like a mama's girl and a henpecked husband!
The father and daughter gave each other a high five. "Let's go! To the military region!"
... ...
Suzhou Military Reserve Area, Office Building
When the soldiers were training and shouting slogans, you could even see a white mist.
The weather is getting colder and colder, but the discipline of the troops remains as strong as steel, without the slightest slackening.
The little cub liked the place as soon as it entered the military area.
The road is lined with lush trees on both sides, and the uncles walk in a single file, looking tall and neat.
Once inside the building, a female soldier prepared a small water tank for her, filled with lukewarm water that wasn't too hot to handle.
Dad and Aunt Cuiping were taken into another office for questioning.
The cubs were temporarily placed on a bench in the corridor, surrounded by many female soldiers.
"Wow, that hair is styled so beautifully! We rarely see such fashionable hairstyles in the city!"
"Look how fair this little baby is, no matter how much I cover him up, he still looks wheat-colored."
"Your name is Zhizhi, right? I have some cookies here, do you want some?"
The female soldiers chattered amongst themselves, clearly all fond of the adorable little dumpling.
Zhizhi felt surrounded by beautiful women, and the air smelled as sweet as cotton candy.
She pulled out some White Rabbit candies and toffee from her pocket and said generously, "Zhizhi can trade with the older sisters. Mom and Dad said trading is fair. Zhizhi will have lots and lots of snacks!"
"Wow! This little baby is so adorable!"
The female soldiers wanted nothing more than to hug her and spin her around.
The atmosphere here was so lively that no one noticed the leader coming down the stairs.
"...Commander Ji, the people we arrested last time have confessed, and the mission was a great success. We successfully protected the country's assets from flowing out of the country. It's almost noon, so why don't you do me the honor of going out for lunch?"
The leader followed behind with a sincere attitude.
Ji Zeguo shook his head, his attitude very formulaic, "I have something to do later, so I won't eat. Oh, by the way, where is your family compound? Is it convenient for me to come over...?"
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly stopped and stared straight down the corridor.
The leader followed the gaze and his expression changed. He pointed at the female soldiers and scolded them, "What are you doing! This is an office building, not a market. Don't you have any discipline?!"
Upon hearing the leader's words, the female soldier immediately stopped laughing and stood up straight.
The women surrounding the baby suddenly stepped aside, exposing the little one to the leader.
"Why is there a child here?!"
The leader panicked, fearing that Commander Ji would think it was due to his poor management.
I take care of my child at work.
He quickly smiled apologetically, trying to explain to the commander.
Before he could even speak, Ji Zeguo had already strode down the stairs and headed towards the cub.
The leader slapped his forehead, realizing something was wrong.
Oh no! I have to write a self-criticism again!
He hurried over, only to find that the commander showed no anger whatsoever; instead, his expression revealed... ...caution?
"Long time no see! Grandpa sees you here again. Do you still remember Grandpa?"
Zhizhi raised her fluffy little head, her big, clear black and white eyes blinking as she looked at him.
Oh! The grandpa who insisted on giving her candy last time!
How did he end up here?
She even asked herself if she knew him. How strange!
Dad isn't here right now, so Zhizhi can't talk to strangers.
The little cub shook her head seriously, "I don't remember, Zhizhi doesn't remember you being the grandpa who delivered milk candy."
