The 65-year-old goddaughter's dream shattered

  Manman returned to her seat and found that both Ye and Mo Wenyang were gone.

  Jiang Dashao asked Gao Dashuai: Where's Lao Ye?

  I'm speaking on behalf of those brothers and friends who are filled with righteous indignation: I think it's a loss of face.

  On grandpa's turf, someone actually dares to make a move, (╰_╯), asking for death!

  It's a pity that the stolen paintbrush set was a brand new and slightly expensive one.

  However, this brush stroke, on the contrary, makes her talent burst forth in the midst of changes, more dazzling than her usual watercolor paintings.

  No, Professor Feng brought Zhang Qing to apologize to her first. Immediately afterwards, a group of guests came one after another, enthusiastically discussing the painting she had just done. Professor Feng and Zhang Qing intentionally made up for the loss they had caused to Manman before, using expert opinions to mediate and highly praising Manman's painting skills.

  The long-awaited business opportunity has finally arrived.

  "Early summer, I now have more than a dozen appointments on my hands, saying that they will visit the gallery this week. You and Shifu Ge hurry up and open the gallery tomorrow." After finishing a batch of guests, Manman couldn't help it and rushed into the bathroom to tell her fellow struggling best friend at the first opportunity.

  "Ah?" Receiving a call from Manman, Chuyi was sitting at home eating cookies and thought she might have picked up the wrong line. She checked the number again and asked, "Is this Manman?"

  "I am Manman." When Manman is anxious, her voice changes a little.

  "Aren't you supposed to be on your honeymoon with Jiang Yan?" Chu Xiaoman asked casually.

  "Just starting a life together, they can't even afford to be frugal, what's the point of having a honeymoon?"

  Early summer, the cookie in her mouth fell to the ground. She quickly looked around and made sure her husband was not nearby and couldn't hear.

  Comrade Jiang Yan has indeed married a good wife who is specially for him to save money.

  Unfortunately, Comrade Jiang Yan hopes his wife can spend his money lavishly and accompany him on their honeymoon.

  Every family has its own unsolvable problems.

  "I said, let me open the gallery, I'm not afraid of your mom and sister coming to make trouble?" Originally decided to close the gallery for a while, just to avoid those two crazy women.

  "It's okay, they already know where I live and have come to bother me before," said Manman.

  "What? You wait for me!" Foot stretched out to the ground to put on slippers, early summer prepared to find a broom and salt, "I'll drive them away for you."

  Everyone has been driven away by others." Manman told her not to be busy anymore, making money is the priority.

  "Did your husband hit you?" Chuxia naturally assumed that Jiang Dashao would protect his wife.

  "No, it was just a coincidence that my husband wasn't around that day, and Iceberg Old Man happened to be beaten up."

  It's said that Master Jun's slap on Wen Yu's face was quite ruthless, enough to make her swollen face hide at home for half a month.

  The question is why these two unapproachable men always have to interfere with her personal affairs.

  Early summer picked up the cookie that had fallen on the ground, blew it and continued to nibble. Since there was a gentleman who helped beat the most deserving Wen Huan, he advised Manman: "I think these two gentlemen are like taking the wrong medicine all day, you'd better stay away from them, the farther the better."

  The two grandfathers are good, but they always make people feel like there's some kind of conspiracy or plot brewing, mysterious and suspicious.

  Carefully reeled in the line, slipped out of the toilet and glanced around without seeing anyone, then snuck back to his seat.

  When she went to the bathroom, the main course was served. Jiang Dashao had given her a full serving of dishes in two small bowls. So, she divided half of the food back into her husband's bowl.

  The single brothers at the same table are depressed and strongly dissatisfied, protesting: You don't have to show off your love everywhere, do you?

  "Comrades, you have to understand, they are newlyweds." Jiang Dashao's one sentence overruled their protests.

  Gao Dashi looked at Manman's clean fingers and couldn't help but ask Jiang Dashao in a low voice, "Didn't you buy your wife an engagement ring?"

  Jiang Dashao didn't have time to respond.

  One of them pulled out a necklace that had been hidden in her collar and said, "The ring he gave me is here."

  When she put the necklace around her neck, the two men standing behind her skipped a beat.

  Who would have thought that what Manman pulled out was not the Lujia jade pendant, but the wedding ring given by Jiang Dashao.

  The two men were both taken aback on the spot.

  Jiang Dashao was also depressed.

  He certainly had a wedding ring ready, he just planned to take it out at the most suitable time.

  Manman treasured the oversized ring he had given her before, wearing it around her neck, and told Gao Dali: The only one in the world, I will wear this one for a lifetime.

  The wife he married is too good, so good that Jiang Dashi becomes worried: doesn't know how to give the ring again.

  However, Gao Dashi's doubts are constructive. If Manman wasn't wearing a wedding ring and there was this stunning scene today, others would think Manman is single and come to pursue her, which would make Jiang Dashao even more depressed.

  At a glance, there was already someone with regretful and drooling eyes staring at his young wife.

  Turn around and kill the shameless scum man - Li Zhenwei with a single knife.

  Didn't notice that my husband was picking up a mistress, slowly and leisurely eating something with a small bowl, tonight because of being stimulated by the cheap woman, I'm really a bit hungry.

  Li Zhenwei's gaze was completely fixed on Manman in the second half.

  Those ugly big glasses on his nose bridge, he used to think they made him look bad, but now looking at them, the more he looks, the more delicate and lovely they seem.

  It's hard to imagine that the crescent-shaped eyes behind the glasses can become so vivid and captivating in an instant, shining brightly.

  As soon as Li Zhenwei's eyes drifted towards Manman, Wen Mingzhu's hands under the table clenched into fists and twisted the tablecloth, imagining it was Manman's face, trampling it to death.

  "Mingzhu." Jiang Yun thought for a moment, although her future daughter-in-law couldn't help her gain face in painting, but after all, the treasure she had bet on was Lu's adopted daughter. She urged, "Everyone has gone to toast, why don't you go and offer a cup of wine to Madame Lu and Junye?"

  When it comes to Mrs. Lu's table, the guests who went up to toast and chat with her were wave after wave. Among them, Zhang Qiuyan and Wen Haosheng could be seen advancing bravely in the crowd like Saint Warriors, successfully squeezing out many people with their two-ton physique, occupying a favorable position next to Mrs. Lu.

  Wen Mingzhu's teeth itched: These two hypocrites, since they found out that Manman's value had increased, not only did they secretly rebel, but today they came to openly steal her position.

  Jiang Yun urged her to hurry up while keeping an eye on whether Madam Chiang had arrived at the banquet hall.

  At the entrance of the banquet hall, Jiang's mother sat on a long bench for guests to sit and leisurely sighed.

  Jiang Mei listened and didn't understand: "Mom, isn't Mengmeng bringing honor to you? Why don't you go in and enjoy the blessings?"

  "What do you know?" Jiang's mother glared.

  Man Man gave her a hard time, now it's her turn to lose face in front of Man Man.

  "Grandma can't afford to lose." Little Dongzi pulled down his eyelids.

  "How can I lose?" Jiang's mother was even more vigorous, her nose pointing to the sky. "What can she do? She's not a daughter of the Lu family, but just a daughter of a grocery store owner."

  "That Wen Mingzhu is just an adopted daughter, right?" Jiang Mei couldn't help but speak up for Manman. She had also seen the previous match, and Wen Mingzhu was that kind of person - a beauty with a poisonous heart, whoever married her would be unlucky. It's really unknown what Jiang Mu was thinking, this wasn't how you compared strengths.

  "My own daughter is dead, and isn't an adopted daughter considered as good as a biological one? Look, it's going to be announced today." Jiang Yun thought that tonight she would shine in the midst of everyone's congratulations, but her daughter-in-law was from a humble background, being the descendant of a grocery store owner. Tomorrow, at the gathering of ladies, how could Jiang Yun boast and belittle her? Her daughter-in-law wasn't talented, but relied on her family background. This thought made Mrs. Jiang uncomfortable, "You said that Mianmian is not bad, why didn't she follow along to serve Madame Lu and become an adopted daughter?"

  "Mom—" Jiang Mei stomped her foot, her mother's words were getting more and more absurd, no wonder her brother said she was under-educated.

  Inside the banquet hall, a considerable commotion suddenly arose, with the disturbance spreading all the way to the entrance.

  Jiang Mu and Jiang Mei both stretched their necks to take a look inside.

  Wen Mingzhu felt the timing was about right, so she put down her cup of wine and walked towards Mrs. Lu with a gentle smile. She had only taken half a step when suddenly there was an eerie silence all around, which startled her to a stop.

  A pair of eyes gazed at the rostrum covered with red carpet.

  A man stood in front of the microphone, his entire demeanor as majestic as an emperor, with icy brows, tightly pursed lips that seemed to be carved from granite, and a face that was chiseled from steel, his eyes gleaming with a coldness that seemed to pierce through the darkness like a knife.

  Jiang's mother felt that every time she saw Lu's eldest son, she would catch a cold: "Do you think he is preparing to deliver a congratulatory speech on stage?"

  Your expression is so cold and scary that it would even frighten little kids at a one-month-old baby's celebration.

  Man Man thought that if this iceberg face could melt a little, maybe he would also be a charming and handsome guy surrounded by girls.

  Will iceberg face melt one day?

  At this moment, this iceberg is like a volcano on the verge of eruption, with ice flames that are absolutely more spectacular than fire flames.

  Everyone deeply felt the biting cold wind blowing towards them in waves, making their situation precarious and endangered.

  The wine cup in Wen Mingzhu's hand was like a boat tossed by huge waves, shaking violently, the red liquid splashing everywhere, onto her body, skirt, and even face, like streaks of blood-stained knife wounds.

  "Cold, cold, a voice that's so cold it makes anyone with even a hint of darkness in their heart tremble. A deep, powerful, and intimidating tone comes through the microphone, echoing throughout the venue: 'I know today many people have come not only to congratulate our family's young one, but also to wait for me to replace my mother or for me to announce some major news.'"

  What's up?

  The guests were whispering to each other, some looked completely unaware and surprised, while others like Jiang Yun and Li Zhenwei looked excited as if they had already won a big prize, their faces flushed as if they had already drunk the victory wine.

  "What's up?" asked Manman, turning her head to ask her husband.

  Apart from the table where the soldiers sat, which was as stable as Mount Tai, all the surrounding seats were bubbling and boiling like an open hot pot, turning the entire venue into a steamer.

  The vines feel deeply, Master Jun came tonight intentionally to steal the spotlight from the full moon little friend.

  When giving a toast to little friends, there has never been such a lively scene where everyone is waiting for the big prize in front of them.

  Jiang Dashao calmly replied, "It's none of our business what others are doing."

  Perhaps he had heard of it earlier, but the one he loved was the same as she loved him, regardless of her identity, status or family background. He loved the person, not those attachments that came with her.

  On one side, savoring the dishes made by her husband with narrowed eyes, she casually glanced at the corner of her eye and saw the postures of two younger sisters, which shocked people.

  Wen Haosheng and Zhang Qiuyan stretched their necks, their ears almost reaching the bottom of Jun Ye's station.

  Wen Mingzhu was unaware of what was happening, and in the face of Jun Ye's terrified expression, she looked as if she had seen a dinosaur with its bloody mouth wide open, ready to collapse at any moment.

  Turning back, in front of her, Old Man Yao was smiling mysteriously at her again, his teeth gleaming as if he had already won a big prize.

  "Director Yao, do you like to eat bean sprouts?" Manman said a cold joke, so that Director Yao wouldn't laugh anymore, or his chin would drop and he wouldn't be a handsome man anymore.

  Little did he know, this sentence was passed on, and Old Man Yao's narrow and long beautiful eyes narrowed, the smile on his face was somewhat restrained, but the smile in his eyes became even more intense, like a pool of spring water rippling, overturning all living things.

  Not saying much, the male classmates at the same table all looked a bit infatuated.

  He raised his cup of wine, and Old Man Yao took a small sip, then spat out words that were profound in meaning: "Today, your words, sir, come from the heart, I hope you will listen carefully."

  Her ears are here, but Master Jun is using a megaphone, she thinks it's hard to hear even if she wants to.

  One eyebrow raised, feeling quite surprised.

  Her shoulder was wrapped in her husband's big hands, and half of her ear was stuck to his chest. She heard the strong heartbeat inside and raised her eyes, saying: "A Yan, you don't believe that we will win a big prize too, do you?"

  "The land-based school seems to never believe that there is such a thing as winning." Comrade Jiang Yan pulled his collar, enjoying the cool breeze, reassuring his wife that no matter what happened, he would be there to support her.

  "Yes, he never draws lots." Gao Da Shuai couldn't hear any hidden meaning, only the reality of Jun Ye.

  Comrade Junye only emphasizes facts and dislikes things without basis.

  Unclear, she turned her head to the ice cream on the table. At this moment, a pair of cold eyes from the other side were staring at their table, as if wanting to make eye contact with her. She quickly shrank her neck and continued eating.

  Perhaps it was this action that stimulated Jun Ye, and Jun Ye suddenly spoke up: "The news I want to announce is——"

  The scene was silent, everyone waiting for the moment when the grand prize would be announced.

  "But I only have one sister, whether she's dead or alive, there's only one, so the Lu family absolutely doesn't have a case of adopting a daughter. Anyone who tries to take my sister's place, if I find out, I won't forgive them!"

  Decisive, merciless, lenient, excessive

  The shocking aftermath lingered for three days, a warning that shook everyone's heart like an earthquake.

  The entire venue was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and even the slightest sound would make people's hair stand on end.

  Wen Haosheng and Zhang Qiuyan's jaws dropped: "Sister?"

  What's with the sisters? They've been thinking that Master Jun is looking for a partner all along.

  Jiang Yun and Li Zhenwei were both restless, one with legs that wouldn't stop shaking, the other with hands that couldn't stop trembling as he held a spoon to drink soup.

  Finally

  Boom!

  In the middle of the scene, Wen Mingzhu fainted beautifully.

  The screams rose from within the arena, as if everyone had found a release point and were shouting with all their might.

  This distant cousin really fainted at the right time.

  Manman thought, and finally remembered that when she entered the door, she seemed to hear many people congratulating Wen Mingzhu for becoming the young lady of the Lu family tonight. At that time, she was still puzzled, with Wen Mingzhu's thieving heart, she really took Junye as her elder brother, wouldn't she regret facing Junye's icy face every day at the Lu's house?

  Your Majesty is not only cold, but also has a piercing gaze. To put it bluntly, an honest person does not do things in secret. If Your Majesty catches someone doing something in secret, no matter if they are relatives or not, you will still uphold justice and punish them accordingly.

  Manman "kindly" thought of Wen Mingzhu: Now that you've said this, Master Jun, you have escaped your suffering.

  Under everyone's urging, Li Zhenwei, drenched in sweat, picked up the fainting Wen Mingzhu with both hands. Only then did he realize that Wen Mingzhu was actually not light.

  Hugged and took two steps, feet suddenly slipped.

  The crowd gasped in shock.

  Boom!

  Li Zhenwei and Wen Mingzhu fell down together and fainted together.

  The audience, especially the table of big brothers in uniform, were laughing so hard they were doubling over, because they didn't go to join in the fun, just watched the commotion.

  "Look at that sorry excuse, claiming to be a government official. If war breaks out one day and he's in charge of evacuating the masses, he'll definitely be a hindrance." Gao Da Shuai gave a thumbs down, showing extreme disdain. "He should be dragged into the army and taught a lesson."

  "If you were dragged to my squad, at least run ten million miles on the first day, or else you'll end up like this." Jiang Dashao took the opportunity to vent his anger towards scumbags in his chest, fully expressing his Yan Luo instructor spirit.

  Still want to take advantage of his wife in this way?

  I'm afraid driving at high speed is also a problem of physical strength.

  How did the topic turn to driving? Manman clenched her small fist and patted her husband's shoulder: Don't be out of place.

  As the crowd lifted up the fainted man and woman to send them to the restaurant's medical room, Comrade Junye, the one who started it all, had a face without any guilt, an iron-faced Bao Gong, and walked back to his seat with big strides.

  Wherever he went, a cold wind blew, and everyone who thought of what he had just said was so frightened that they swallowed their saliva with a gulp.

  That handsome face of yours is nothing new, but what's surprising is that you just gave a speech: "Brother, do you have a sister? How come I've never heard you mention her to us?"

  "I have been separated from her for many years." Comrade Junye's simple and clear words, however, had a harsh tone that was beyond everyone's expectation.

  Everyone put down their chopsticks.

  Actually, he, with his cold eyebrows and eyes, now only hopes to hear a few words of feeling from someone.

  The vines buried their heads, and their eyes seemed to be only as big as a grain of rice in a bowl.

  Her eyes, inadvertently, lingered on her slightly lowered head.

  "What does your sister look like?" Gao Da Shuai asked. "Speak up, and those who can help will help find her."

  "When we were very young and separated, our appearances may be different from what we imagined, but the feeling will never change!" The last sentence was powerful.

  Her cold gaze, if she were willing to lift her head at this moment, could see what the melting of frost and ice looks like.

  Everyone at the table was deep in thought, and a look of sudden realization flashed across his handsome face.

  Jiang Dashao is only responsible for serving soup to his wife, and everything else is unknown.

  Manman finally looked down and finished the soup in her bowl. After finishing, she only looked at her husband and asked: "I see someone has started walking, can we go now?"

  "Tired?" asked gently, with eyes that could actually see two grandfatherly figures' lingering gazes.

  "I told Chunxia that I had to hurry back and call her and Shifu Ge, as we're opening the stall tomorrow."

  All that's left in his mind now seems to be making money.

  Jiang Dashao and his two grandfathers were depressed: no matter how much money she wanted, it was not a problem for them.

  She doesn't want anything from others, she just wants what she earns herself.

  He took her bag and bid farewell to the host family and children. Jiang Dashao and his wife wanted to leave first.

  Just as he was about to reach the door, two men and Gao Dashuai caught up with him: "Wait!"

  Manman thought of taking a ride and suddenly remembered Mo Wenyang, who had excused himself halfway through and hadn't been seen since.

  On the other hand, Mo Wenyang was rubbing his fists and wiping his palms, bringing two security guards with him, escorting a suspicious-looking guy who swaggered over.

  "Vines, I've brought the person here, you can vent your anger as you please!" With that, he pulled out the little thief who had caused him to lose face in front of his comrades and pinned him down in front of Vines.

  "This——"

  "It was someone who told me to do it. She said they were just a bunch of worthless brushes and didn't say anything would happen."

  The thief cried and scolded with pain, and there was news of the mastermind, which quickly shocked all the people inside and outside the scene.

  ……

  Inside the clinic

  Wen Mingzhu, who never wanted to wake up for her whole life, was finally forced to open her eyes by Jiang Yun's pig-like hand.

  "Great job!" Jiang Yun's lips, filled with disdain and sarcasm, "I said your parents really know how to teach you. Not only are you full of lies, pretending to be something you're not, but at critical moments, they leave the older generation to clean up after you, while they just sleep soundly."

  "Mom—" Wen Mingzhu still called her future mother-in-law in private as she always did.

  "What's wrong, Mom!" Jiang Yun opened her two eyes wide with surprise.

  Wen Mingzhu was not intimidated, and the pale corners of her mouth curled up into a faint smile: "Now it seems like I've been formally abandoned by the Lu family. Are you looking down on me? But don't forget, Mrs. Lu's illness from losing her daughter still needs me to comfort her."

  Furrowing his brow, Jiang Yun's face sank.

  On another bed, Li Zhenwei woke up and saw the two of them, now both feeling annoyed. To think about it, the one who introduced Wen Mingzhu to him was his own mother.

  The only consensus among the three was: they couldn't go out now, it would be embarrassing.

  The sudden loud noise at the door was like a huge wave crashing against the gate.

  The little thief who was dragged in, at the moment he saw Wen Mingzhu, seemed to have seen a Bodhisattva and rushed over to hug her leg: "It's what you said, just taking away the paintbrush won't be a big deal, I won't go to jail. But now they want to catch me and put me in jail!"

  Wen Mingzhu was taken aback for a moment, then kicked out at him: "What nonsense are you talking about? I don't even know you!"

  "I won't mistake anyone for you. Among all these people, only you look the most beautiful, like a celestial being."

  "It's someone framing me!" Wen Mingzhu shouted in a shrill voice, looking around, but couldn't find anyone who seemed to believe her nonsense.

  After all, she couldn't even draw a stroke during the competition, and Manman's paintbrush was lost and stolen, which is a fact.

  Li Zhenwei and Jiang Yun are trying to take advantage of the chaos to slip away.

  This face can't be lost anymore.

  "Mrs. Lu?" Just as Jiang Yun was about to retreat to the door, he raised his head and saw Mrs. Lu walking up through the path cleared by the crowd.

  Madam Lu's eyes, which had always been gentle and lenient towards her, were now as severe and unfeeling as those of Jun Ye.

  Just as the four eyes met, Wen Mingzhu shook her head in fear: "Auntie, listen to me, it's really not me who did it, someone framed me——"

  "Don't call me aunt." Mrs. Lu cut her off with a decisive sentence.

  Everyone gasped in shock.

  Mrs. Lu was a kind and gentle person, but when she fainted, she still thought her son's words were somewhat inhumane, so she wanted to come over and comfort her with some soothing words, only to stumble upon such a scene.

  The son is right, too many people are greedy for their family's position, blinded by desire, and become capable of doing anything evil.

  "Auntie, you can't say that. I've always been by your side, taking care of you like my own mother." Wen Mingzhu knelt down in front of Mrs. Lu, tears streaming down her face as she spoke from the bottom of her heart.

  "Alas..." Mrs. Lu sighed deeply.

  "Auntie." Thinking there was a chance, Wen Mingzhu pulled tightly on Lu Furen's sleeve again.

  Madam Lu turned around and withdrew from her fingers: "Don't come see me again in the future."

  Looking at her own two empty hands, Wen Mingzhu's head drooped down, all the way to the floor tiles, her hair scattered, where was the beauty like a fairy?

  ……

  Mangmang took back her paintbrush and left dealing with her distant younger sister to others.

  After knowing that Wen Mingzhu did these things, it was all because of Jun Ye's mysterious disappearance sister, her eyebrows were slightly twisted, and Wen Haosheng's words floated in her ears: It is said that Sister Mingzhu can entice two masters and Mrs. Lu, all because of this jade pendant.

  It's exactly the same jade pendant, and every room in the Wen family has one. It can't be that the one I have is the one the Lu family lost, right?

  Manman secretly laughed to herself: her parents would always just be the owners of a grocery store, Wen Shixuan and his wife Xu Yu'e. Perhaps her younger sister Yanyan might care, but Manman absolutely wouldn't feel ashamed because of this.

  Mo Wenyang drove the Mercedes-Benz to the entrance of the restaurant.

  The sky drifted with a few small raindrops, looking like it would pass by in an instant.

  The trunk of the car forgot to put an umbrella, but there was no umbrella. For this kind of rain, it won't cause any problem.

  "Jiang Zhongxiao." Mr. Yao walked over with an umbrella and handed it to Jiang Daxia.

  Jun Ye knocked on the driver's door and waited for Mo Wenyang to stick out his head, reminding him to be careful driving at night.

  "Brother, clothes." The handsome big boy who ran over was Lu's second son, Lu Huan.

  Man Man was about to step into the car door opened by her husband when she met Lujia Er Gongzi's bright eyes.

  The other party raised an eyebrow at her, and the corners of her mouth moved slightly.

  Manman imagined him silently saying the word: "number".

  Waking up, Jun Ye had once entered three phone numbers into her mobile phone, one of which was named Lu Huan.

  Jun Ye handed over the lady's coat that his younger brother had brought to Jiang Da Shao: "The weather changed on the way back, bring it to her."

  Manman wanted her husband to decline, but Jiang Dashao had already helped her accept it first.

  The car drove away from the restaurant.

  As soon as she turned her head slightly, Manman could see that a few people were standing at the door, seemingly seeing her off.

  My heart feels like this dark and gloomy sky, it's a bit suffocating.

  "Alright." Rubbing the top of his little wife's head, Jiang Dashao couldn't bear her to suffer even a bit, and said to Mo Wenyang, "Take us to the car dealership. We're going to buy a car now."

  Mo Wenyang whistled: No problem.

  She was dissatisfied and glared at her husband: "At midnight, what car are you buying?"

  "You performed so well tonight, if I don't give you a car, I'll regret it and won't be able to sleep tonight." Jiang Dashao continued to beg like a little wife begging his wife.

  The little girl said to Driver Mo Wenyang, "Drive to the bakery, I want to buy some bread."

  "I'll buy tomorrow's breakfast." Jiang Dashao rushed to do the chores.

  "No, it's for my dad." said Manman.

  Man Man still remembers that when she was young, every time she won an award in a competition at school, her father Wen Shi Xuan would buy her favorite butter bread from the bakery. Later on, when she grew up and started earning money, she told herself that if she were to win an award now, it's her turn to buy butter bread for her father.

  The other two people in the car fell silent after hearing her explanation.

  Mo Wenyang let out a sneeze and rubbed his nose: "Manman, you're really filial to your dad."

  "Mmm, my dad is the person I love most in this world," said Manman.

  "What about me?" As soon as he heard this, Jiang Dashao hurriedly pointed to himself, "What ranking am I in your heart?"

  "Third."

  Apart from Wen Shi Xuan, there was another person in between. Jiang Da Shao's face turned even darker: "Who is the second one?"

  "Early summer."

  After a moment of silence, Mo Wenyang burst out laughing loudly.

  Jiang Dashao leaned against his forehead with one hand, looking sulky, and raised an eyebrow: "Why is it a girl?"

  "Didn't I save your life in early summer?" Manman solemnly told her husband, don't underestimate her friends.

  In early summer, thinking of that girl who often stabbed her in the back and was willing to sacrifice herself for her friends, Jiang Dashao was willing to humble himself a little, temporarily yield, and rank third in his wife's heart.

  He pointed at himself and asked his daughter-in-law: "Don't you ask where you rank in my heart?"

  "I won't ask," said Manman.

  "Why?" Jiang Dashao pouted, getting angry.

  "You're a soldier, so the country comes first."

  The two iron-blooded men in the car were both stunned.

  Next, a passionate wet kiss, smack, printed on the wife's forehead, big reward: My wife is really clever, if she participates in a witty Q&A contest, she will definitely win first place.

  Manman only knew that after her husband asked her a few questions, the gloomy mood she had earlier, like on a rainy day, immediately saw sunlight again.

  Marrying a husband should be like this, happiness is paramount.

  ……

  Deng Xiaoyu received a call from the restaurant and only then did he learn that his daughter, who was supposed to attend a dinner party tonight, had encountered an accident.

  Hastily going to the police station with her husband, she wanted to bail out and take back their daughter who was being detained for questioning, but the police said that the nature of her crime was not light and refused to grant bail.

  The lovely daughter is now crying in prison: They framed me, they harmed me, they made me unable to hold my head up as a human being again. How can I go back to the company? How can I face people?

  From a young age, they were the treasured ones in our palms, but overnight, they fell from the clouds and became like this. How could Wen Shi Tong and his wife not feel heartbroken?

  However, for them, the most practical problem was that Jiang Yun called that night to formally announce: the wedding is off.

  Wen Shì sat on the sofa like a useless person, smoking half a dozen cigarettes. Originally, his company had bid for a government project to build an engineering project on the land, and because of his daughter's relationship with Mayor Lu's wife, it was well-known that everything was going smoothly and was about to be successful. Now it has become this way, and tomorrow, not only his daughter but also he himself may be abandoned by the people around him.

  The world is very cold-blooded.

  After being mixed up with Wen Shi for so many years, he is very clear about this point. If he can't even climb onto the big tree of Lu's family, let alone Li's family has abandoned him, how will others behave?

  A phone call came in, it was old classmate Shen Guangyu who had just heard the news: "What's going on? I heard your daughter fell? What do you mean by fell? Why didn't you teach her well?"

  Wen Shi Tong listened and felt dissatisfied, wanting to hang up the phone.

  "Hey, don't hang up! What about that person who helped you come up with a plan last time? Let him think of another move!"

  "He did mention a way, but it's actually an illegal issue, will you help or not?"

  "What's going on?" Shen Guangyu asked what method first.

  "They're not looking for a real little girl, are they? Let's give them a real little girl."

  ……

  Lu Jun left with his family after Manman and the others had gone.

  On the road, Mrs. Lu asked: "You said your father has returned, why haven't I seen him come home?"

  "Mom, you seem more eager than ever to see dad." Lu Huan asked with a smile.

  Mrs. Lu was a military wife, accustomed to her husband being away from home for years at a time.

  Mrs. Lu is now thinking of discussing with her husband, she knows there's a girl who looks very much like Nangnang, and wonders if it's possible to have that child do a paternity test.

  It seems like he knew what Madame Lu was thinking, Jun Ye's cold eyes with complex colors were cast onto the window glass.

  Outside, the night is vast and dark.

  Tonight's intentional attempts at probing yielded an answer that was even more difficult for him to accept than he had anticipated.

  It turns out that she has her own family, and the father who has been with her for many years wants her to leave and face reality, is it possible?

  If she were like other Wen family sisters, who would immediately abandon the kindness of their upbringing and join the Lu family as soon as they heard about wealth and glory, it would be another unbearable disappointment.

  Things have two sides, just like a double-sided mirror, turning over and over, with no answer.

  "Brother, Bai Lu sister didn't come tonight." Lu Huan saw that her mother and brother's expressions were not good, so she intentionally changed the subject.

  "Right." Mrs. Lu seemed to recall something, "She hasn't been feeling well lately, Mr. Lu, haven't you gone to see her?"

  "Lately I've been quite busy. Besides, her body has always been like that, just allergic rhinitis, nothing serious." said Lu Jun.

  Upon hearing his formulaic tone, Mrs. Lu and Lu Huan exchanged a bewildered glance.

  You are too excellent, so excellent that even falling in love and getting married are all done in an orderly manner, never letting your life trajectory go off track by a single step.

  It's just that it's almost too excellent...

  Madam Lu and Lu Huan both sighed in their hearts at the same time.

  The car stopped at the intersection with a red light, and saw Mo Wenyang's Mercedes-Benz parked on the side of the road. Jiang Dashao and Mo Wenyang stood on one side guarding the car door.

  The slender figure sat on the steps of the street, pulled down the mouth of the paper bag, revealing a freshly baked butter bread: "Dad, try it. If you think it's delicious, I'll buy breakfast for you to bring in the future."

  "No need for breakfast, you're not close to where I live." Wen Shixuan smiled and accepted the bread handed over by his daughter.

  To him, this bread was more fragrant than any food in the world, and he couldn't bear to take a bite.

  The wife spoils the younger daughter, making her spoiled and unlike the older daughter who is more considerate.

  "I'm on my way to work and will pass by here anyway." Mianmian said, "Besides, I want to learn how to drive, so bringing you breakfast is no big deal."

  Jiang Dashao did not expect that, due to Wen Shixuan alone, the driving plan that he and others had painstakingly persuaded his daughter-in-law for a long time but to no avail was finally understood by her.

  Deep jealousy.

  Reflected in several pairs of eyes.

  "This is..." Seeing Wen Shi Xuan, Mrs. Lu nervously fidgeted with her hem.

  Her dad.

  Wen Shi Xuan gave people a completely different feeling from Xu Yu E, Mrs. Lu tightly grasped her son's hand: "You say, if we find Nang Nang, and Nang Nang has parents of her own, will she still recognize us?"

  Before, I only thought of finding Nainai and once found her, everything would be fine, because I always believed that Nainai would definitely come back after a few days, after all, we are blood relatives.

  But is it really that simple?

  Seeing her son not responding for a long time, Mrs. Lu's heart sank, and it kept sinking.

  "Mom—" The two brothers called out in unison.

  The car sped through the intersection and rushed back to the Lu's house.

  Manman rarely had time to sit with her father, and when she did, the conversation flowed freely, and laughter was always reflected in her eyes.

  Seeing his daughter-in-law so happy, Jiang Dashao couldn't bear to ruin her enthusiasm, and walked aside to answer the phone.

  "Is it Chiang Chung?"

  "Director Yao?" They had just parted ways at the restaurant not long ago.

  "I'm rushing to the hospital now. I heard from Principal Lu that you haven't returned home yet."

  Turning back, looking towards the main road, cars passing through the intersection lights one by one, without seeing Mr. Lu's car and Junye's figure: "When did he see us? We haven't even gone home yet."

  "Can you take Mianmian to the hospital for a trip now?"

  Jūn Méi Suǒ Jǐn: "Néng shuō yuányīn ma?"

  Translation:

  "Can you tell me the reason?"

  "Mrs. Lu fainted."

  Turning back, looking at his wife accompanying Wen Shixuan in happy laughter, Jiang Dashao wandered back and forth, staring at the shadow on the ground.

  "Jiang Zhongxiao, I know you're a man who doesn't take orders from anyone, but listen to me, if you can bring Mannan over, it will only be beneficial for you in the future, not harmful. Haven't you met Commander Lu before?"

  "Hold your foot, a firm voice: 'Colonel Yao, you tell me something first.'"

  "Jiang Zhongxiao, if you're asking about Jun Ye's sister, I can tell you that 10% of it is true."

  "Ten percent?"

  "No, I and Jun Ye's feeling is one hundred percent."

  Comrade Jiang Yan feels that the current choice is more difficult to decide than a life-and-death battlefield.

  "Dad, I'll go back to the house with you and see what else you need. Next time I'll bring it for you." Manman helped Wen Shixuan up, preparing to go upstairs with him.

  Wen Shi Xuan's current residence is no longer a basement, thanks to Man Man who asked her brother-in-law Du Yu to find a new place. Firstly, it's closer to where she lives; secondly, the neighborhood is safe; thirdly, older people shouldn't live in cold and damp basements as it's bad for their legs.

  As they walked further and further away, Jiang Dazhu hastily caught up to them: "Manman—"

  "Where did you say we're going?" asked Manman, furrowing her brow.

  Comrade Jiang Yan had no choice but to change his strategy and said to Wen Shixuan, "We have something urgent, we must go back immediately. I'll bring her here again tomorrow."

  "Wan Wan." Wen Shi Xuan was reasonable and said to his daughter, "You are now someone's wife, you can't not listen to your husband."

  Manman didn't want her father to have a hard time, so she nodded: "Then I'll go upstairs first."

  This kid. Wen Shi Xuan smiled and waved at them a few times before walking up the stairs in his slippers.

  Looking at Rong Si's broad and generous back, Jiang Da Shao felt a little guilty.

  "Let's go, where are we going?" asked Manman to her husband.

  Mo Wenyang drove the car, following the address Yao Ziyi had given him over the phone, and arrived at a certain troop hospital.

  Yao Ziye might have just arrived too, and he directly led them inside from the entrance, saying which emergency room it was.

  Creeping behind them, they walked to the door of the ward. Yao Ziye was about to knock on the door when he suddenly heard a voice coming from inside:

  "Mom, I'm home."
