"I will remain silent." Li Baichuan said with a serious expression.
"..."
The scene fell silent; several newspaper staff members almost thought they had misheard.
“My husband isn’t good with words, so why don’t you ask me instead?” Suti was also taken aback for a moment, but fortunately she was somewhat prepared.
She thought about what she had just taught him, and she hadn't expected him to be so obedient.
“Yes…Is that so?” Several colleagues from the newspaper glanced at Li Baichuan, whose expression was even more serious than theirs.
"This is a long story, and my husband didn't think about what would happen next when he brought it up."
“He’s not even good at handling interviews, and he’s not the kind of person who likes to receive praise.”
"We share the same idea: we are all proud to be able to help the people in unexpected circumstances."
"But as members of the public, we all share the same thought: if we had a choice, we would hope that these acts of praise would never happen in our lives."
Suti quickly made amends for Li Baichuan, saying that after she finished speaking, the others could also see that the man was indeed not good with words.
The way he looked at his wife was even more proud than theirs, and he nodded from time to time, with an expression that said, "You're absolutely right."
Thinking about how he had lived in the countryside for so many years and had never seen anything big, he felt that the person who switched the children back then really deserved to die.
They dared not imagine how outstanding this person would have been if they hadn't been replaced.
"Okay, thank you both for taking the time to be interviewed today. May we take a picture of you?"
In the final stage, the newspaper staff wanted to keep a photo for the page.
"Let's forget about the photos; we want to keep a low profile." Sutiko had no intention of exposing herself to the public like this.
Society is not that safe yet, and with the Li and Guo families behind them, there are too many potential dangers.
"We understand, so we won't force you." The group thought about their identities, and their unassuming nature was really endearing.
Li Baichuan only regained his normal expression after she left, and looked at his wife with excitement.
"Wife, how was my performance just now?" Li Baichuan looked at him with a desire for praise. Those people were so serious just now, but he was even more serious than them and didn't flinch at all.
"Great job!" Suti praised him, even though he was a bit simple-minded, he was still incredibly adorable.
After everyone left, Guo Xuqing and his wife, who lived upstairs, came downstairs. They had been worried about this matter recently.
They were worried that the children would feel pressured by being pushed so high all at once.
It seems that their daughter is accepting things well, while Baichuan is completely clueless and has no idea what it is.
As long as his wife is alright, everything will be fine.
"Grandma, Mom, I'm planning to go back to work tomorrow." Suti thought that she had rested for so long, and it wouldn't do to stay away from work any longer.
“I also need to tell you about this. Mom has to go back tomorrow, and your grandma will stay here to help you.”
"Are you going to stay here or go back to the other side? The old marshal said it's fine either way. If you go back, you'll need to bring a nanny with you, otherwise it will be a bit difficult for Grandma to take care of two people by herself."
Guo Xuqing has been here for two months, and she can't just ignore the work there anymore. She's thinking of making arrangements before she leaves.
“We’ll go back this afternoon and bring a nanny with us, just like Grandpa suggested. The two kids are pretty well-behaved.”
“With someone helping with the cooking, Grandma will have an easier time.” Su had discussed this with Baichuan privately beforehand.
She expresses some milk in the morning and feeds the baby again at noon. If that doesn't work, she also has formula. There's not enough milk for the two children anyway.
She plans to continue feeding the baby only formula until the baby is 100 days old, otherwise both the baby and the mother will suffer.
"Okay, Mom will come to see you again in a while." Guo Xuqing felt that her daughter was getting better and better, and there was nothing to worry about.
After Guo Xuqing left, Su Ti went to work, and a lot of changes took place in the Reform Department.
When Suti returned, everyone looked at her with complicated emotions.
No one expected that she was actually Marshal Li's granddaughter-in-law, just like the fake grandson in their department before.
They went all out to be as high-profile as possible. Even when Suti was seen being picked up by military vehicles, there were rumors that her family had connections in the military.
But no one associated her with the old marshal, after all, the previous one had left too deep an impression on them.
Now they know that the old marshal served the country and the people, and that the Li family members were of unyielding integrity. This is how the true Li family members should be.
Everyone admired them from the bottom of their hearts; the whole family had made contributions.
Suti single-handedly made the Reform Department famous; previously, their Reform Department was considered the most useless department in Beijing.
Everyone knows this place was once a stepping stone for the children of privileged families, but now that people are talking about the Ministry of Reform, it has changed.
The implication is that the Reform Department is very powerful; they remain silent until they make a stunning statement, and they even said that children of high-ranking officials are just that—children of high-ranking officials—and that none of them are simple.
Even they themselves didn't realize that they were not simple people, but rather the epitome of deep scheming.
Every time they went out, they were looked down upon, forcing them to hold their heads high, but they knew in their hearts that they really hadn't done anything.
They all benefited from Suti's influence; now the Ministry of Reform is highly sought after, and many people are trying every means to send their children there.
The purpose is to learn; this is a place where talent can truly be cultivated. The people in the Reform Department all think it's absurd.
Who knows how Suti found out about those things? How could she be so lucky to have stumbled upon such a thing?
They had a lot of questions to ask, but the woman had gone back to have a baby and they hadn't seen her since, leaving them all incredibly frustrated.
Now that Suti has stepped into the Reform Department, everyone's faces are full of enthusiasm, and they immediately surround Suti.
"Comrade Su, you're back!"
"Congratulations, Clerk Su!"
The people in the Reform Department thought that they would follow Suti from now on, and even if she gave them some pointers, it would be enough for them.
She's very smart, and she has such a powerful backer. I've even made a contribution, so getting along well with her can only be beneficial.
“We’re all colleagues, no need to be so polite. You’ve probably seen those reports. This whole thing started because of my husband, it doesn’t really have much to do with me.”
"It's getting late. I need to go to the minister's office first. I've taken so much leave, I need to use it up."
Suti knew that her identity had been completely exposed to everyone, and she also guessed what she would face after returning.
The calmer and more composed she appeared, the more unfathomable she seemed to everyone.
