Chapter 745 (Page 1/2)
Regardless of whether Wen Wan is ultimately willing to accept their biological daughter, Qiao Yan has already made up his mind to save some money for Lin Man from this moment on.
As the old saying goes, "Sincerity can move mountains and open up new horizons." He firmly believed that as long as he wholeheartedly cared for and protected Lin Man, his blood-related daughter, one day, Lin Man would understand him and recognize him as her father.
The next morning, Qiao Yan arrived at the post office early with full of expectations and longings.
When the post office door slowly opened, he was the first to rush in and couldn't wait to hand the remittance slip to the staff.
Not long after, a stack of brand new banknotes appeared in his hand. Qiao Yan then rushed to another bank and opened a special passbook in Lin Man's name. He deposited the entire 500 yuan into the passbook.
After getting the passbook, Qiao Yan decided to hide it secretly in the drawer of his workplace so that Wen Wan would not find it.
In order to ensure the safety of the passbook, he even replaced the drawer with a new, sturdy and durable lock.
Whenever he had some free time at work, he would gently open the drawer and stare at the passbook lying quietly inside, with an indescribable sense of satisfaction and responsibility welling up in his heart.
One morning a week later, sunlight shone through the thin clouds and fell on every corner of the city.
Qiao Yan sat in a spacious and bright office, holding the phone in his hand. After hesitating for a long time, he finally dialed the military district's number.
A familiar and steady voice soon came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, who is this?"
He took a deep breath and said, "Old Li, it's me!"
Li Shen seemed a little surprised by the call, but he still responded enthusiastically, "Oh, it's Minister Qiao. What can I do for you?"
Qiao Yan cleared his throat and said solemnly, "Staff Officer Li, please ask Lieutenant General Huo to answer the phone for me."

"Okay then, I'll ask someone to invite Lieutenant General Huo over for you. Call back in half an hour!"
"Okay, thank you, Staff Officer Li."
Half an hour later, Qiao Yan called the military district office again, and Huo Li finally answered the call.
As soon as the call was connected, Huo Li said, "Hello, Minister Qiao, what can I do for you?"
Qiao Yan replied excitedly, "Lieutenant General Huo, I found a job for Xiao Man."
Huo Li was visibly stunned after hearing this, and then asked in confusion, "Minister Qiao, why did you suddenly think of finding a job for Xiao Man?"
Qiao Yan smiled slightly and explained, "I've just watched Xiao Man and the other kids grow up day by day. Besides, she's already thirty years old this year, so she can't just sit around doing nothing. So I thought about finding a suitable job for her."
Huo Li frowned and said worriedly, "Minister Qiao, you may not know that Xiao Man resolutely gave up her enviable job in order to take care of her children.
Do you think, given her current situation, she would still be willing to work in a routine institution like the government?"
He quickly waved his hands in denial: "No, no, no, the job I found for her is not hard at all, the daily workload is not large, and the benefits are quite good.
More importantly, when the time is right, I will find a way to transfer her to work with me, so that she can have a stable source of income and I can take care of her more conveniently."
Hearing this, Huo Li couldn't help but chuckle and said jokingly, "Minister Qiao, in my opinion, you should keep this good job for your own daughter-in-law! If Xiao Man really wants to work, I will naturally arrange this little thing for her."
Huo Li really wanted to say to Qiao Yan, "The child has grown up and you have breastfed. The child doesn't need you anymore, but you come out to pretend to be a loving father. What were you doing before?"
