Guan Wenru and He Yanzhi's relationship became increasingly harmonious, and their careers were also booming. All of this was like poisonous thorns, piercing Su Qing's increasingly twisted heart.
Envy and jealousy eventually escalated into reckless malice.
She began spreading rumors, claiming with certainty that Guan Wenru was "full of capitalist manners," "arrogant," and "had long looked down on his poor comrades who had no money."
These provocative and malicious words were quickly relayed back by the 'ears' that Duan Feifei and Guan Wenru had planted in the company.
Upon hearing this, Guan Wenru merely smiled dismissively, showing no anger. Instead, he saw it as a good opportunity to resolve the issue completely.
She acted swiftly, and on behalf of the group, she joined forces with several wives of leaders who were highly respected among military families and equally warm-hearted, to launch a 'Military Family Mutual Assistance Skills Training Class' for all families in need within the division.
The project is well-planned and aims to teach practical skills such as tailoring, sewing, basic accounting, and cooking to help military dependents improve their employability.
Even more impressively, Guan Wenru personally approached Su Qing and, in front of several representatives of military families, extended a sincere invitation with a smile:
"Comrade Su Qing, you are raising two children alone, and you know how tough life is. We would like to hire you as a life counselor for this training program, so that you can use your personal experience to encourage and help more women. As for your salary, you will definitely not be shortchanged. If we are going to help, we will help you at the root. It's better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish!"
This move put Su Qing in a very difficult position.
If she refuses, it will immediately confirm the rumors that Guan Wenru "looks down on poor comrades" and "is unwilling to help sincerely," and she will completely lose her foothold in the division's family circle.
These military dependents will never associate with her again out of consideration for past relationships!
If she accepts, it means that she has also been incorporated into Guan Wenru's 'charity system' and become one of the people Guan Wenru helps. She will no longer be able to ask He Yanzhi for any special care as an isolated and helpless weak person.
Su Qing's expression shifted, and under the pressure of everyone's gaze, she could only grit her teeth and force a smile as she agreed, "Thank you for your trust, Chairman Guan. I... I will definitely do my best."
Hearing this answer, Guan Wenru smiled with satisfaction.
To be honest, she really didn't want to deal with her.
She knows better than anyone how hard it is for a woman to raise a child alone.
Women should help women.
But Su Qing didn't care about her help and repeatedly challenged her bottom line, so she had no choice but to fight back.
...
On the day of the opening ceremony, the auditorium of the division headquarters was packed to capacity.
He Yanzhi, dressed casually, sat in the audience with his triplets who had just returned from vacation, as a show of support.
Guan Wenru, as the main initiator and funder, took the stage to speak.
She was dressed in a simple yet elegant suit, her demeanor composed, her voice clear and strong: "Commanders, fellow military families! We are gathered here today not for charity, but for mutual assistance!"
It is so that every military wife can live a more wonderful life with her own hands and wisdom, become the most solid support for her husband, and become the proudest mother for her children!
Our Ruyi Group is willing to provide this platform and all training resources, hoping that every sister can find her own value and strength here!
Her speech was grand in scope and lofty in its vision, full of positive energy and respect and care for the families of military personnel, instantly winning thunderous applause from the audience.
Sitting in the audience, He Yanzhi looked at his radiant wife on stage with pride in his eyes.
The triplets also clapped enthusiastically for their mother.
Su Qing, sitting in the counselor's seat below the stage, could only clap stiffly, trying her best to maintain a smile on her face, but in her heart she was so angry that she felt like she was bleeding.
Once again, she watched helplessly as Guan Wenru used her malice to build a greater reputation and a better image for herself!
Once again, she paved the way for Guan Wenru's future!
Why is this woman always so annoying?
But there was absolutely nothing she could do!
...
After the ceremony, everyone was free to chat.
Undeterred, Su Qing saw the tall, handsome triplets standing together talking, so she composed herself and walked over.
She plastered what she thought was a friendly smile on her face. "Oh my, Shengsheng, Yiyi, Qiqi, you've all grown up so much! Time flies. I still remember when you were little, Aunt Su would come to our house to tutor you, and Shengsheng, you would insist on having me tell you a story before you would go to sleep..."
She tried to use the past to build rapport and evoke in the children the memory of her five years of hard work.
However, upon hearing this, the eldest brother, He Yi, merely nodded politely, his tone calm yet clearly distant, "Thank you for your concern back then, Aunt Su."
However, the most memorable moment was when my dad was away on a mission and we couldn't be reached. My mom was taking care of the three of us brothers all by herself. She had a fever but stubbornly refused to go to the hospital, afraid of missing a call from my dad. That was truly difficult.
As soon as his older brother finished speaking, He Qi pushed up his glasses and calmly added, "Yes, my mother often taught us that we should be grateful, but we should keep it in our hearts instead of just saying it. True help is like this training course today, which can actually change people's destiny."
He Sheng wasn't very shrewd, and he couldn't see through Su Qing's thoughts, so he spoke very directly, "Aunt Su, you're a training instructor now, do a good job! Helping more military dependents in need is the right thing to do! My mom must trust you to let you do such an important job."
