In the evening, the couple sat down for dinner together.
Su Jingjing suddenly remembered their conversation during the day and casually asked, "A-Ting, I heard that a group of girls from the military arts troupe are coming to the military region."
She had never witnessed the troupe's performance before; she had only seen them on television.
Li Hanting placed a piece of meat in his wife's bowl, looked into her eyes and nodded, "Yes, come over tomorrow. There are military exercises coming up soon."
He raised an eyebrow. "Who told you about this?"
My wife doesn't usually go out, so who's nagging her?
Su Jingjing then recounted what had happened that morning.
Gripping the chopsticks tightly in her hand, she said, "Ah Ting, I want to go see him tomorrow."
I'm bored at home anyway.
Without hesitation, Li Hanting replied, "Alright, I'll take you for a walk."
With the kids not home, my wife must be bored.
After a good night's sleep, Su Jingjing stretched and put on her shoes to wash up.
Just then, Ah Ting brought back breakfast.
"You're awake. After breakfast, I'll take you there to have a look."
"Um."
Su Jingjing rubbed her eyes and turned to go to the bathroom.
After washing up, I felt much more awake and sat quietly in my chair to eat breakfast.
Fifteen minutes later, I tidied up the trash on the table and went out.
This was Su Jingjing's first real step into A Ting's work area. His office, like everyone else's, was simple and unadorned.
The young man, Liu Yang, seemed to still harbor a shadow over the original owner of the body; he greeted her with obvious trepidation.
"sister in law."
Su Jingjing smiled and nodded.
Li Hanting said, "Honey, I have to go to work later, I'll leave Xiao Liu here."
Su Jingjing quickly refused, "I'm a grown-up, I won't get lost, you don't need to leave Xiao Liu here."
To avoid giving others cause for gossip later.
Liu Yang was fed dog food again, ugh... I'm so full.
When Su Jingjing arrived at the training ground, the outer area was already filled with family members.
"Jingjing, come over here."
He Zhaodi waved to her.
"Zhao Di, when did you arrive?"
"I just arrived too. Look at those girls with double braids, they're from the performing arts troupe, aren't they beautiful?"
He Zhaodi felt a pang of envy. The gap between herself and others was too great. The only thing she could be proud of was cooking.
"It is indeed beautiful."
Each of them is pretty and cute, unlike ordinary girls.
The cultural troupe also belongs to the military region, so it also needs to conduct appropriate training every day.

Since the last incident, Gu Shaokai has had only one thought every day: he must find that person.
The ideal may be perfect, but reality is often harsh.
I've been searching for almost three weeks now, but there's been no news at all; it's as if this person never existed.
Gu Shaokai was very agitated and ran over to Ah Ting for comfort.
"What have you been up to lately, bro?"
Li Hanting glanced at his brother and said, "A group of girls from the cultural troupe recently came to the military region, so things have been quite busy."
Cultural troupe?
No wonder the training ground was bustling with activity when he arrived.
Gu Shaokai wanted to join in the fun, but said, "You go ahead with your work, I'll just take a walk."
Li Hanting didn't even flinch.
Upon arriving at the training ground, each girl was wearing military uniform, making it easy to distinguish their appearances.
Suddenly, a stunning face came into Gu Shaokai's view. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, thinking for a moment that he was seeing things.
He smiled knowingly. It was truly a case of "searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly."
Little liar, so that's where you were hiding.
"Liu Yang, come here for a second."
Liu Yang had just walked out of the training field when Shao Kai called him over.
"Brother Shaokai, what's wrong?"
Gu Shaokai grabbed Liu Yang's hand and pointed to one side, "What's the name of the girl in the leftmost seat of the first row?"
What were their names again? Liu Yang couldn't remember them at first; to be precise, he didn't remember any of them.
"Go find out her name for me." Gu Shaokai's eyes remained fixed on her movements. "By the way, when did they finish?"
"One more hour."
Liu Yang answered truthfully, as if he had a premonition that this girl would be Shao Kai's nemesis.
For the next hour, Gu Shaokai stood there for a full hour, when his father came over.
"Ahem, what are you looking at here for?"
Gu Qingyun walked over and followed her son's gaze, her brows furrowing in surprise.
"You haven't fallen for another girl, have you?"
This kid is restless; he only ever plays around and never thinks about settling down.
"Dad, you're going to have a daughter-in-law soon."
Gu Shaokai said something nonsensical.
When the meeting ended, he couldn't find the little swindler for a while. "I'm not talking to you anymore, I have things to do."
After saying that, he took off running.
Gu Qingyun stood with his hands behind his back, still reeling from the impact of his son's words.
This is the first time he's said something like this. Could he be serious this time?
Could it be that one of the girls in the performing arts troupe has caught the eye of that brat?
I hope it's true; this kid isn't young anymore.
Liu Yang ran over, panting, "Brother Shaokai, I found out, her name is Zhong Xinyi."
Zhong Xinyi, what a nice-sounding name.
That's it?
Liu Yang nodded blankly, "Yes, didn't you ask me to find out the name?"
I didn't ask him to inquire about anything else.
"Having spent so much time with Ah Ting, my style of doing things is indeed very similar to his."
Gu Shaokai gave a thumbs-up in praise and continued his search for the little swindler.
Finally, they found her by a big tree and slowly approached her when she wasn't paying attention.
He said coldly, "I've finally found you."
Zhong Xinyi subconsciously looked up and suddenly felt that the man opposite her looked somewhat familiar.
"Who are you…"
"Take a close look, and see who I am."
In what seemed like an instant, Zhong Xinyi remembered what had happened in the coffee shop.
Oh no, why did he come looking for us?
Startled, she stood up and backed away, her face filled with terror. "You...you...how did you get in?"
Is he here to settle scores?
"I walked in openly and honestly." Gu Shaokai approached step by step. "Why did you steal the wallet that day?"
"I...I..."
Zhong Xinyi was at a loss for words for a moment, and finally managed to say, "I didn't mean to, or I'll compensate you."
Because my grandmother was sick that day and urgently needed money, I impulsively took his wallet.
"Could you please not tell anyone about this?"
After all, it's not something to be proud of, and she might even lose her job.
This has been her dream since she was a child. She finally managed to get in, and she doesn't want to give up halfway.
Are you begging me?
Seeing her speak in a soft, gentle voice, Gu Shaokai's Adam's apple bobbed, and his chest seemed to skip a beat.
Zhong Xinyi paused for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, please."
With someone holding leverage over him, he dared not make any rash moves.
