Chapter 58: Almighty Soldier King
Jiang Wanying's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but chuckle. "You're overthinking it. How could I like him?"
"There are too many unreliable men in this world. I've already sealed my heart and locked away love. Okay, I can do everything on my own. To me, men don't have much meaning in life. It's better for me to be free and independent."
Li Wei held her hand distressedly, "But you'll be lonely alone!"
Jiang Wanying's heart sank. She had traveled through books so many times, but had never been with anyone. She always said that she wanted to be a free and easy person, and men would only become obstacles for her.
But no one is like Li Wei, who worries about her being alone.
Her eye sockets felt a little swollen and painful, and a layer of mist surged up. Jiang Wanying didn't want to cry on a day like this, so she quickly looked up at the dark sky in the distance and forced back her tears.
Then he smiled and took Li Wei's hand, saying affectionately, "Don't you still have me by your side? In the future, if you give me a few more goddaughters and godsons to play with, I won't be lonely!"
"Look at what you said. You're about to give birth, and you're not ashamed!" Li Wei blushed and reached out to touch her forehead.
Jiang Wanying didn't think it was a big deal. "I'll just be a mother painlessly and enjoy it!"
Li Wei shook her head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and didn't know where she learned all these twisted ideas from.

Suddenly, light snow started falling outside. Lu Yanchuan came out of the interrogation room and after explaining everything to Director Li, he planned to leave.
At this moment, a long-haired girl carrying an aluminum lunch box passed by him. Zhao Meini paused and looked back in surprise. What a handsome man!
Could it be that he is the new one?
With this doubt in mind, she quickened her pace and ran to Li Yichang's office. Without knocking, she pushed the door open and walked in. "Uncle, have you hired any new people?"
Li Yichang was busy with official business. When he saw her coming, he criticized her, "Nini, how many times has your uncle told you to remember to knock on the door? This is an order!"
If he was discussing some important task in his office, it would definitely have a bad influence if she barged in so carelessly.
Zhao Wenni stuck out her tongue playfully, not taking it seriously. "Okay, I won't dare to do it again next time!"
That being said, she has never done it.
Seeing that she admitted her mistake so quickly, Li Yichang didn't pursue the matter any further. He sighed and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Zhao Wenni raised the aluminum lunch box in her hand and said, "Uncle, you're not coming home for dinner, so my aunt asked me to bring you some dumplings."
"Eat it while it's hot!"
She sat on a chair, opened her aluminum lunch box, and pushed herself towards Li Yichang. "Uncle, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you're getting old. Wouldn't it be better to let the younger people do things like taking on shifts? I think the new guy you guys met in the corridor just now is quite good. He's tall and handsome, and he should be pretty good at fighting, right?"
"Who?" Li Yichang picked up the aluminum lunch box, picked up a dumpling and took a bite. "There haven't been any new arrivals in our office recently!"
"Who is that tall guy I see?"
Li Yichang thought about it carefully and finally came to the conclusion, "The man you see is not what we are looking for. If we had an all-round soldier like him, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."
"The all-around soldier king?" Zhao Wenni covered her mouth in surprise. "Is he really that amazing? He looks so young, is he still a soldier? What's his rank?"
Li Yichang only found out that Lu Yanchuan was his deputy regiment commander after receiving a call from his son-in-law Jiang Xichen the next day.
When talking about him, the son-in-law praised him highly, as if Lu Yanchuan was his own son.
