Chapter 439 Felling Redwood (shuhaige.net)



After Yao Tongjia helped remove the needle, she ignored He Jiayin's pleading look, said goodbye to Jun Nanzhu, and was about to leave when Jun Nanzhu took out a box of chocolates from his bag: "These are for Little Pudding!"

Yao Tongjia accepted it without hesitation: "Thank you, I'll bring you gifts next time I go to Hong Kong!"

Seeing Yao Tongjia abandon her so heartlessly, He Jiayin could only pretend to be weak: "Azhu, I'm in pain!"

Jun Nanzhu had been watching Yao Tongjia's technique the whole time. He heard that He Jiayin was in pain, so he massaged her without saying a word. But the more silent Jun Nanzhu was, the more agitated He Jiayin became.

Whether Jun Nanzhu heard the words "leave the father and keep the son" or only heard that her son wanted to get a new father, she said cautiously, "I'll go and teach that little devil a lesson when I get home tonight. How can he want to change his father!"

Jun Nanzhu's lips twitched. He was trying to shift the blame to his son: "How about I apply for a transfer and come back to stay with you guys? Otherwise, the kids will need a new dad!"

He Jiayin was secretly delighted. Hearing this, she relaxed: "You can finish your grassroots training in another year. How can you come back? Don't do anything reckless! I'll teach that kid a lesson when I get back tonight!"

"Is it enough to just discipline the child? What about you, who wants to leave the father and keep the son?" Jun Nanzhu's cold words made He Jiayin forget about her back: "You heard everything?"

"Luckily I came back today, otherwise I wouldn't even know the Crown Princess had divorced me!" Hearing these sarcastic words, He Jiayin quickly sat up: "I was just joking!"

"I'm still coming back to stay with you. There's still a year left. I'm afraid that when I come back next time, you'll have already removed me from your lives!"

Jun Nanzhu's decision to go to the grassroots level for training was the result of discussions between Old Master He and the Jun family. If she were to quit because of a few words from her, it would be strange if her father didn't scold her to death!

To hold a high position now or in the future, one must have grassroots experience. Jun Nanzhu has already begun to work hard for his future, so how can I hold him back!

He Jiayin repeatedly denied it: "I didn't do it, don't talk nonsense! There's still a year left, you have to hang in there!"

"But you already have a goal! You and your child are the most important people to me. I don't want to lose my family for the sake of my future!" Jun Nanzhu insisted!

"Where else is there a target? Don't try to pin this on me. It's just that your son mentioned it last night, and I ended up bringing it up with Tongtong today!"

"But you've already said things like you want to leave the father and keep the son, and you're saying you don't want to replace me?"

"I was just saying it, please forgive me!"

Do I still have the right to forgive you?

Listen to her aggrieved expression, what could He Jiayin do? In the end, she could only agree to several unfair terms to smooth things over.

He Jiayin sighed inwardly, realizing how comfortable she was now, not even noticing when people came in. In the past, she would have sensed their presence even before they entered.

A truly peaceful life can lower a person's vigilance to zero. If I were to do a mission in this state, I would have been reduced to ashes long ago!

Yao Tongjia was completely unaware of He Jiayin's sigh. When she arrived at the Ruan family's courtyard in the military region, she found the courtyard very quiet and assumed that Xiaobuding was not at home.

Whenever Little Pudding was home, the whole yard would seem to come alive. But she was wrong. When she went closer to the living room, she found Little Pudding playing with building blocks.

Even when she and Xiao Gengwu came in, they couldn't attract Xiaobuding's attention. When Xiao Gengwu saw that his daughter liked his toys, the corners of his mouth turned up in a big smile.

Yao Tongjia looked at it and felt that even an AK couldn't suppress the corners of that mouth!

Yao Yanxin brought a plate of food out of the kitchen, put it down, waved to Yao Tongjia, and then whispered, "Little Pudding was so good today, she played with her toys the whole time, even in your dad's office, and she played with them when she got home!"

Yao Yanxin whispered these words close to Yao Tongjia's ear, and Yao Tongjia asked in surprise, "Mom, why are you whispering like that?"

Yao Yanxin quickly went to check on Xiaobuding and found that Xiaobuding was not affected at all. She breathed a sigh of relief: "It's rare to see Xiaobuding so calm. I think it's good to help her calm down!"

"Just speak in your normal voice. She's interested in the blocks right now, so she won't pay attention to you even if you make noise next to her!"

As expected, Yao Tongjia spoke at her usual volume, and Xiaobuding didn't look up. Yao Yanxin was very pleased: "It seems she's like her father. You won't have to worry about her studies in the future!"

Yao Tongjia complained, "Can't I just focus on studying?"

"You can calm down and study, but can you be as focused as Ah Geng?" No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Yao Tongjia really can't be as focused as Xiao Gengwu.

When Ruan Shengpeng returned, the family ate together. Little Pudding ate his meal quietly and then went back to playing with building blocks, which Ruan Shengpeng found very unusual!

Normally, this little girl wants her grandpa to go for a walk with her as soon as she finishes eating, so why is he out of favor today?

Seeing that Xiao Buding really liked the building blocks he made, Xiao Gengwu thought for a moment and asked, "Dad, can we cut down the trees on the back mountain?"

There are several mountains behind the military region. Ruan Shengpeng asked curiously, "You can cut down trees, but you can't just cut them down randomly. The trees that can be cut down are marked. What do you want to do?"

Xiao Gengwu pointed at Little Pudding: "I'll make some more toys for her!"

He could tell that this little pudding was probably like him, someone who developed intelligence relatively early. He couldn't waste such an opportunity, so he planned to make more toys to help her develop her intelligence!

Seeing that Little Pudding really didn't need him today, Ruan Shengpeng stood up with some regret: "I'll go up with you!"

Xiao Gengwu hesitated for a moment: "Why don't you send someone up with me? Then you won't have to trouble yourself to go up, Dad!"

Ruan Shengpeng complained, "Why do you think I'm too old?"

How should he respond to that? Xiao Gengwu quickly waved his hand: "Where are you old? If you go out with me, people will just say we're brothers!"

These words pleased Ruan Shengpeng. He knew that Smith always said he didn't know how to take care of himself and looked like he was from a different generation than Yao Yanxin, which had always bothered him.

Now that his son-in-law is praising him for looking young, it seems he'll have to make sure he and his wife apply face masks together every night from now on. A couple doesn't necessarily have to look alike, but they shouldn't look too far apart in age!

Ruan Shengpeng, along with two guards and Xiao Gengwu, went up the mountain. None of the four of them were slow-moving, and they quickly reached the area where logging was permitted.

Xiao Gengwu quickly took a liking to a piece of rosewood. He had heard Tongtong say that rosewood would become an antique if left for a long time.

If Little Pudding doesn't play with the toys he makes, he can keep them as souvenirs!

Before the four men could even begin to cut down the trees, they overheard someone plotting something!
