Chapter 363 How Deep is the Hatred?
Pang Juan wanted to see Tang Xuewen, which was something Chen Yu never expected.
She regretted it as soon as she pulled the person to the back of the cafeteria.
Why should she think Tang Xuewen needs someone to discipline him, while Pang Juan has to do things her way? Marriage isn't a game.
In disbelief, Chen Yu asked Pang Juan several more times, and after receiving a definite answer, she walked home as if in a dream.
In the evening, when everyone in the family was gathered, Chen Yu knocked on the door and asked Song Lubai to come out for a moment.
The young couple hadn't seen each other for two or three days, and were about to get cozy when Chen Yu interrupted them.
Song Lubai got dressed and went next door.
Wei Zhao was sitting in the main room, yawning.
"Didn't I tell you two last time? I talked to Sister Pang Juan today and mentioned it to her..."
After listening to Chen Yu's explanation, Wei Zhao asked for confirmation several more times.
They never expected that someone would actually want a man like Tang Xuewen.
"You're just a kid, don't get involved in these things anymore. I'll go see Pang Juan tomorrow, and you don't need to worry about it."
To Wei Zhao, Chen Yu, who was not married, was still a child, and a child shouldn't concern himself with this matter.
After listening, Song Lubai went back to her room without giving it any further thought.
Pang Juan knows what kind of person Tang Xuewen is, yet she's still happy to be associated with him. If anything happens in the future, she can't blame anyone else.
The young couple had a frequent sex life, and they both knew each other's bodies very well, so they always enjoyed themselves.
Having not shared a bed for two days, the two of them spent an unusually long time tonight, so long that they couldn't even use their contraceptives.
The object was placed to one side. Wei Yang tucked a strand of sweaty hair from her forehead and asked softly, "Is this alright?"
If they don't take precautions, the two of them are very likely to have a child.
In her dazed state, Song Lubai did some calculations about the ten months of pregnancy. If she conceived this month, she would give birth in two or three months next year, which was not bad.
Springtime is in full bloom, and the fragrance of oleaster blossoms fills the regiment headquarters.
Wei Zhao went to the armed forces department's canteen around noon and found Pang Juan.
Pang Juan had already heard Chen Yu's explanation. When Wei Zhao asked her why she was willing to be in a relationship with Pang Xuewen, Pang Juan said frankly, "Comrade Wei, you also have children. We women don't hold back when it comes to talking."
Wei Zhao laughed and said, "There's nothing to hide between us women, so don't worry, I definitely won't tell anyone anything."
Pang Juan said somewhat embarrassedly, "My husband has been dead for nine years. He died when my child was two years old. My son needs a father. My family... no, I'm not afraid you'll laugh at me, it's me..."
No matter how she said it, Pang Juan felt incredibly embarrassed.
Wei Zhao reached out to stop her from speaking: "It's okay, I know, but you have to understand that Tang Xuewen can hit people. He's not his own child, so he might not treat the child well. You're a woman, and you might not be able to handle him in the future. I suggest you think it over carefully. If there's a suitable person later, I'll introduce you to him."
Pang Juan appreciated Wei Zhao's thoughtfulness. She said, "My child's father is no good either. He used to beat even his own father, but he's afraid of me. I've disciplined him and he's very obedient. My father-in-law is getting old and his health isn't good. He always wants me to remarry. I can't have any more children, and I won't be able to find a good family in the future. If Tang Xuewen is willing, and we become family, he can only treat my child as his own. If he's not willing, then forget it."
“Director Wei, I’m perfectly clear-headed. I’m not afraid of Tang Xuewen hitting me. I’ll be even tougher than him. Besides, with his reputation, he won’t find a wife in the 16th Regiment. Even if I can’t have children, I won’t feel sorry for him. I’ve met him once before. He’s quite good-looking, much better-looking than my child’s father.”
It sounds like Pang Juan is indeed very clear-headed.
Putting everything else aside, Tang Xuewen is indeed quite handsome, and he's only a few years younger than Pang Juan. After calculating in his mind, Wei Zhao nodded and smiled, saying, "Alright, wait for my message. I spoke to him today, and if he has no objections, I'll arrange for you two to meet."
"Comrade Pang, you don't mind if I tell him about your situation, do you?"
Pang Juan said, "Just tell me, there's nothing to lie about. Tell him that my family has a house, so if we get married, we won't need to renovate the house."
Wei Zhao almost laughed.
Judging from Pang Juan's words, she must have listened to a lot of Tang Xuewen and Miao Feng's gossip back then.
If Tang Xuewen really agrees, what's the difference between that and him marrying into the family?
What could be a better deal than delivering a father and child right to your door?
Around 8 p.m., Tang Xuewen dragged his tired body back to the vicinity of the multi-person dormitory.
The so-called dormitory for multiple people was just a mud hut that leaked when it rained.
The mud house didn't even have a bed, only a makeshift bed on the floor and a few eating utensils. Compared to Tang Xuewen's previous home, it was like heaven and earth.
Tang Xuewen had a sullen face, cursing his boss in his heart. The boss had been watching him work all day, preventing him from taking a break.
He looked up and saw Wei Zhao standing there. He walked up to him with a long face and said, "What are you doing here?"
Wei Zhao crossed his arms, a smile on his face. "Something good has happened. Come on, let's talk over there."
After they arrived at a secluded spot, Wei Zhao got straight to the point: "Didn't you ask me to find you a partner? I've got my eye on something now."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Xuewen's eyes lit up instantly, like a cat smelling fish.
"Who is she? How old is she? What does she look like? Has she heard of me?"
When it came to the last sentence, Tang Xuewen actually started to hesitate.
Wei Zhao knew that men like Tang Xuewen were incapable of love; they only sought out women to satisfy their sexual needs.
The questions Tang Xuewen asked completely proved her point.
Wei Zhao said directly, "Even if you get married again, you'll still be a divorcee. With such a bad reputation, I can't find you any unmarried young men."
He said this purely to put Tang Xuewen down, so that Tang would be more receptive to the information that followed.
Tang Xuewen was somewhat dissatisfied, but he could understand.
His reputation has been ruined by Wei Zhao, and Miao Feng has indeed broken up with him. If he were to look for someone else, he could only look for a divorced woman.
Tang Xuewen waved his hand dismissively, "So what if you're divorced? I'm divorced too, everyone understands."
Seeing his expression, Wei Zhao suppressed the urge to laugh and said, "She's not only divorced, but she also has a child and lives with her father-in-law. Her ex-husband is dead, and she has some health problems, so she may not be able to have children in the future."
After Wei Zhao finished speaking in one breath, Tang Xuewen was stunned.
It took him a while to realize what was happening.
Tang Xuewen asked, as if in a daze, "Is the man in front dead?"
Wei Zhao nodded. "How will you have a chance if you don't die? Aren't you afraid that people will still be attached to you because of the child?"
Tang Xuewen's voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth: "And he brought his father-in-law with him?"
Wei Zhao: "Having an elderly person at home means we can discuss things together in the future, isn't that great!"
Tang Xuewen exclaimed in grief and indignation, "Damn it, I can't have children anymore!"
"Wei Zhao! What the hell do you have against me?!"
