Ye Qingyin refused to give in and insisted on holding a family meeting.
As soon as the sun rises, the two men in the family return to their respective posts. They are so busy that it is unknown when the whole family will be able to get together again.
This matter concerns my son's lifelong event, so I must make it clear in advance no matter what, and nip any signs and hidden dangers in the bud.
Chen Zhong took advantage of Ye Qingyin's absence to turn around and ask his son, "How's the mission going?"
Chen Yuanwu understood: "It's done perfectly!"
Chen Zhong felt relieved and started talking about work: "I heard from the commander that they want to transfer you to the south?"
Chen Yuanwu nodded gloomily: "It was my own request!"
"how long?"
"Tentatively, one year."
"It's too short. Go for three to five years and come back, and you'll have the qualifications."
"yes!"
"Work hard, and I'll bring it over when the time comes!"
"yes!"
Ye Qingyin came over with Chen Jing and just heard the last sentence. She was extremely sensitive: "Where are you going? What are you taking? Who are you taking?"
Chen Yuanwu brushed it off with one sentence: "I want to be transferred out of town."
Seeing that it was her son's work, Ye Qingyin knew its importance and stopped asking questions. She got straight to the point: "Old Chen, I don't care how much you know about Xiao Wu's matter. I just don't agree with it!"
Ye Qingyin couldn't persuade Chen Zhong to let Chen Yuanwu join the army, but she couldn't give in on her son's marriage.
Chen Zhong hummed, "Just take care of me, why are you meddling in his affairs?"
Ye Qingyin was furious: "I'm his mother! From childhood to adulthood, I've been worried about everything for him. I can't take care of it? Who can?"
Chen Zhong coughed and said, "Xiao Wu can handle things on his own now. You can't interfere with everything he does. What will you let him say outside?"
Ye Qingyin was so angry that her voice was shaking. "How could I not interfere? Ah? Besides, that's not interference. Who else can he choose? The daughter of a shrew, with no education or qualifications, who pushed me to the ground with just a few words. With that kind of character, if she doesn't feel ashamed, I feel ashamed too!"
Chen Zhong became interested: "Dare to challenge you?"
There are really not many people who can leave Director Ye speechless.
"That's right, it's really uncivilized!" Chen Jing responded, vividly recounting what happened in the evening.
Chen Zhong was amused. This Xiaojun was completely straightforward and logical, and every sentence hit the mark. "That makes sense!"
What a pity! I heard from Xiao Wu that Xiao Jun’s foreign language skills are also very good. It would be great if she could work as a confidential secretary in the military!
Ye Qingyin was extremely dissatisfied with Chen Zhong's attitude: "Old Chen, whose side are you on?"
Chen Zhong smiled and said, "Of course I'm on your side! However, the organization doesn't interfere in matters of marriage, so what can I, as a father, say? If you're not satisfied, just introduce a few more to Xiao Wu!"
Chen Jing made a face. "Big brother doesn't even go to meet people. He introduces everyone to failure. My mom is so mad that she's sick! Sister Xiaohui even said she would help Big brother find a date."
"Xiaohui also came to the military headquarters?" Chen Yuanwu felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
Chen Jing nodded: "Yes! Sister Xiaohui came earlier than us and said that she would go back to the capital with us."
Ye Qingyin then remembered: "Oh, right, where is Xiaohui now? Why didn't she come home?"
Chen Zhong turned and shouted outside, "Xiao Ding, go to the guesthouse and see if Xiaohui is there?"
"In the guesthouse! I saw it at first, but I thought my family knew about it, so I didn't report it." When Ding Yong took the lunch box brought back by the orderly to the guesthouse to give it to Jiang Jun, he saw Jiang Jun and Mo Xiaohui sitting together and talking.
Mo Xiaohui was still shocked when Xiao Ding went to deliver food to Jiang Jun, even though she had been mentally prepared.
Hearing that Chen Yuanwu had returned, Mo Xiaohui rushed to Chen's house early, wanting to find an opportunity to be alone with Chen Yuanwu and test his feelings.
Unexpectedly, outside the Chen family's kitchen window, Mo Xiaohui saw Chen Yuanwu and Jiang Jun being intimate. She was shocked and very disappointed.
She had no intention of going back to the Chen family, so she went to the guesthouse in a daze, wanting to talk to Jiang Jun face to face.
This wait lasted for several hours, so long that she began to suspect that Jiang Jun was staying at Chen's house that night and not going back to the guesthouse.
I was lost in thought and cried twice on the quilt.
It was a little after eight o'clock when the door to Jiang Jun's room opened. Mo Xiaohui hurriedly opened the door and went out to greet him, "Jiang Jun!"
Jiang Jun's eyes were full of smiles, and everything he saw was pleasing to his eyes. "Huh? It's Mo Xiaohui? What should I call you now? You're a company-level cadre now, right?"
Mo Xiaohui forced herself to remain calm: "Are you free now? Are you tired? Can you come to my room and talk for a while?"
Jiang Jun also wanted to understand what Mo Xiaohui's other side was like, so he didn't refuse: "I'm not tired. I took a nap this afternoon and I'm feeling refreshed now."
Mo Xiaohui almost couldn't hold back the smile on her face: "That's great, come in and sit down."
Jiang Jun calmly walked into Mo Xiaohui's private room and sat down on the reception sofa first: "I want to have a cup of tea, I'm a little thirsty."
Mo Xiaohui's smile froze. After a pause, she poured a cup of hot tea for Jiang Yun and herself. "Just make do with it. The tea here is just average."
Jiang Jun picked up the cup and only smelled the tea vapor, not drinking it. It wasn't his own cup, so no matter how clean he washed it, he couldn't drink from it. "Long time no see, are you okay?"
Mo Xiaohui was stunned again. Shouldn't she have asked this question first? "I'm fine. How about you?"
Jiang Jun put down his teacup and spread his hands, letting Mo Xiaohui see the calluses on his fingertips. "Look, I followed my father to the remote mountainous areas to receive re-education from the poor and lower-middle peasants. I did all kinds of hard labor and endured hunger and cold. Do you think I had a good life?"
Mo Xiaohui stared blankly at Jiang Yun's thin, pale hands. The burn scars on the palms still had faint marks. "You must have suffered a lot, right?"
Jiang Yun smiled indifferently: "When Heaven bestows a great responsibility upon a man, it must first make him work hard and starve..."
Mo Xiaohui murmured, "You, you are very optimistic."
Jiang Jun clenched his fists. "Of course! Since Heaven won't let me die, it means I've passed its test. A great man once said, 'There's endless joy in battling Heaven.' Perhaps this is the beginning of my endless joy!"
Her words were full of confidence, and under the dim light, they revealed a kind of resilient beauty.
Mo Xiaohui asked tentatively, "What is your purpose for coming to the military headquarters this time?"
Mo Xiaohui had already found out about Jiang Yonghua's situation through other channels. She even knew that Jiang Jun had been living in the military guesthouse for three months under Chen Zhong's arrangement!
She just didn't expect that Jiang Jun's connection with the Chen family was with Chen Yuanwu, not Chen Yuefei as she had always thought.
Jiang Jun smiled and rubbed his hands together. "Just like my dad, I will undo the mistakes that others have made on me and take back everything I deserve!"
