Chapter 372 Advanced Weapons and Equipment
She picked up the chicken soup and drank it all in one gulp, then put down the bowl and glanced at Lin's parents and Lin Yufei.
Finally, her gaze settled on Lin Yufei, her eyes red and swollen, and she said, "Brother Yufei, I agree to annul the engagement. Since you no longer like me, there's no point in forcing you to stay with me."
Lin Yufei's eyes lit up when he heard that Jiang Ting had agreed to annul the engagement.
Because Jiang Ting joined the performing arts troupe and also trained in the army, she would always find opportunities to pester him after training, which annoyed him to no end.
Moreover, the military and cultural troupe kept spreading rumors about their relationship, and even his close comrades would always ask them when they would submit their marriage application.
He could still think highly of her since she agreed to annul the engagement so readily.
Lin Yufei looked at her and asked to confirm, "You really agree?"
Jiang Ting gave a soft "hmm," her tone full of grievance.
Lin's father said, "Alright, let's leave it at that and finish our meal first."
After finishing the meal, seeing that it was time to clear the dishes, Lin Yufei picked up the chicken soup and drank it all in one gulp.
It was already late, and Lin Yufei had taken two days off, so he could stay outside the military area tonight.
He originally intended to stay at a guesthouse for the night, but Lin's mother said that there were extra rooms in the house, so he could sleep there for the night.
Lin Yufei agreed without much thought.
When Jiang Ting finished cleaning up the kitchen and came out, she saw Lin Yufei lying on the dining table, with a faint flush appearing on the half of his face.
Jiang Ting knew that the medicine she had given was already taking effect.
Lin's mother was taking away and emptying Lin's father's foot bath water when she came back and saw her son lying on the table. She went over to wake him up and tell him to go back to his room to sleep.
When Lin Yufei was groggily woken up, he felt a surge of heat in his chest.
Jiang Ting said to Lin's mother, "Aunt Lin, Brother Yufei must be too tired. Let's help him to his room to rest."
Lin's mother nodded and said, "Okay, this child just came back from a mission, he must be exhausted."
The two immediately helped Lin Yufei into the room next door.
After helping her son to bed, Lin's mother held Jiang Ting's hand and said earnestly, "Xiao Ting, although you and Yu Fei broke off your engagement, he is still the one who wronged you. He suddenly wanted to break off the engagement without giving a reason, which made you feel wronged. You don't need to return the money our family gave you before; consider it compensation."
Jiang Ting said understandingly, "Aunt Lin, I know."
Lin's mother said, "Alright, Xiaoting, you should go and rest too. Luckily, the house you rented has three rooms."
Jiang Ting nodded and left.
The moment the lights in the main room went out, she came out of her room and went straight into Lin Yufei's room.

After the free clinic in Hucheng ended, Jiang Ning treated Wang Weiguo's leg on the last day before returning to the capital.
Upon returning to the capital, Jiang Ning first went to the hospital, and then returned to the family compound with Shen Mo.
As soon as Jiang Ning arrived home in the family compound, her two little ones, Lezhi and Nanxing, came running out on their short legs and hugged her legs on either side.
Jiang Ning looked at the two little pendants on her legs and reached out to pinch their cheeks.
At this moment, Zhiqi also ran out of the house, holding his elementary school graduation certificate in his hand.
"Mom, I've graduated!"
Jiang Ning saw him come out with his graduation certificate, looking all eager to praise him.
She reached out and ruffled his hair. "Yeah, you're going to middle school soon. Our Zhiqi is going to become a little adult too."
In the evening, when Xu Jin and Shen Ziming arrived, Shen's mother prepared a large table of dishes to welcome her two daughters-in-law back from work.
At the dinner table, Shen Ziming suddenly brought up something.
"Mom and Dad, you've been following some news lately, there's something big going on."
Mr. and Mrs. Shen asked with puzzled expressions, "What important matter?"
Shen Ziming smiled but didn't say anything, keeping everyone in suspense.
Mother Shen slapped him, "You child, why do you always only say half of what you mean?"
Shen Ziming smiled and said, "Recently, a researcher came to our research institute. He is a researcher who is secretly researching a high-precision weapon system. Once this high-precision weapon system is released, it will provide the country with greater military strength than the new weapon we successfully developed before!"
Shen's mother was also a researcher. After being sent to the countryside, her life was not as good as before. Fortunately, her eldest son took over her job, and she was able to retire as she wished.
Upon learning of this, her excitement was no less than when she first learned that her eldest son's new weapon had been developed.
With these new weapons, times changed, and the country no longer needed to bow down to other countries.
Moreover, the fact that these weapons are about to be released proves that even more sophisticated weapons are already under development.
Showing off one skill while keeping another to oneself has always been a fine tradition.
Of course, you can't just reveal your hand too easily.
When Shen Ziming mentioned this researcher, Shen's parents couldn't help but think of someone else.
Moreover, that person was related to their daughter-in-law.
Thinking of that person, Mr. and Mrs. Shen exchanged a glance, then looked at their eldest son and asked, "Ziming, can you reveal the researcher's name?"
