After the frail beauty went to the countryside, she went crazy with scientific research.

Chapter 235, Episode 0244: He's the only one who's really smart.
That evening, Wu Ranran asked Zhang Chunsheng to verify the truth of what Qi Fangfang had said. But Zhang Chunsheng, that fool, only told Wu Ranran, "That's not true, don't overthink it," and wouldn't say anything else no matter how she asked.

When asked too many questions, he simply avoided them.

Do you think this won't cause misunderstandings?
Not only did Wu Ranran misunderstand, but even Zhang's mother suspected that her son had done something to wrong his daughter-in-law.

There are no truly stupid people in this world, unless they don't care.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been in the corps for almost a year. How could they not know what is important and urgent? They both understand how important reputation is to a soldier. Even the son of the Grand Elder has to be careful with his words and deeds. The fake Feng Qing, this special agent, has to maintain the persona of being loyal and righteous for decades.

Especially on matters of conduct, no impurity is tolerated, because that green uniform does not represent an individual.

So even though the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were dissatisfied, sad, and resentful, they still tacitly made the choice they thought was beneficial to Zhang Chunsheng—to endure.

This forbearance not only delayed the higher-ups from learning about the security issues in the family quarters, but also emboldened Qi Fangfang to become increasingly arrogant, to the point where she was practically barging into their homes.

Sure enough, this usually cheerful and strong person almost became depressed after her husband came home.

Zhang Hongying used to be the women's director. She had seen far too many women who were unhappy with their lives but forced a smile. When she went to see Wu Ranran, she could tell at a glance that Wu Ranran had a mental problem.

Fortunately, Zhang Hongying was different in Wu Ranran's heart. She was not only Mrs. S, but also accompanied Wu Ranran to the hospital when she gave birth. She used her connections to get the old director to deliver Wu Ranran's baby and waited for more than four hours until Wu Ranran's child was born.

Therefore, Wu Ranran trusted Zhang Hongying a lot, and even relied on her to some extent.

She kept everything bottled up inside when facing others, but when Zhang Hongying asked her a question, tears streamed down her face before she could even speak.

Zhang Hongying clicked her tongue, looking like she'd swallowed a dump. "Would saying a few more words make you mute or something? You could have just explained a couple of things and everything would have been fine. But you were holding it in, and in the end, it almost turned into a major incident."

Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she stared at Lin Yuexi with a warning look on her face, "Although it is not good to be the kind of person who only knows sweet words, it is even worse to be the kind of person who has no mouth. Others may think that life is just plain and simple, but only the person who lives it knows how suffocating it is."

Zhang Hongying knows all too well that Leng Zhi was a blabbermouth when he was young.

However, Zhang Hongying is not Wu Ranran. Whether Leng Zhi is quiet or not doesn't affect her constant chatter. On the contrary, as the two get older, the roles reverse. Leng Zhi becomes more talkative, but Zhang Hongying starts to get impatient and ignore him.

Lin Yuexi was taken aback by what she said; she had never even thought about this question.

Men will only slow her down the speed at which she writes formulas!

However, she still replied to Zhang Hongying, "Mom, don't worry, I'll definitely find someone with a mouth."

"Having a mouth isn't enough; you also have to be good-looking, tall enough, have good character, and be excellent in every way."

As she spoke, Zhang Hongying recalled several good son-in-law candidates from the past.

But for some reason, the young men she used to think were all pretty good now seem utterly unappealing to her.

After much thought, she felt that none of them were good enough for her daughter.

It's excellent in every way, but not safe enough;

Even if you're safe enough, you'll still have some health issues.

For example, Huo Han from the Huo family. If she were to help someone find a husband for their daughter, this young man would be an excellent candidate. He comes from a good family, has excellent conduct, good character, a bright future, good looks, and a great physique. He's one in a million.

But if he were to marry her daughter, the work would be too dangerous. Being a military wife is already very difficult, let alone being the head of a special operations unit.

For example, Ye Siming from the Ye family is two years younger than Huo Han. He is already a well-known surgeon at the Beijing Municipal Hospital. He is handsome, over 1.8 meters tall, and has a gentle personality. He is also an excellent candidate for son-in-law.

But he had dated before, which alone made him unsuitable for her daughter. Moreover, she'd heard he was close to several women at the hospital. These two were already considered among the top young men in their circle in Beijing.

hiss~
No, she still has to find a job. She can't bear the thought of her daughter dying alone. She has to save some money for her daughter's retirement.

Speaking of Huo Han, Zhang Hongying recalled something, "You know Huo Han from the Huo family, right? He might also be transferred to the Northwest."

"what?"

Wasn't he leading a special operations regiment in Northeast China?
Zhang Hongying leaned closer to her and whispered, "The soldiers he led before him had a mission. They went to a place that wasn't close and the mission took a long time. It seems like the higher-ups have ordered him to lead another team."

She wasn't entirely sure of the specifics, but the day before yesterday, when she went to deliver typhoid medicine to Lao Leng, she ran into Huo Han at the door of Lao Leng's office.

At the time, Lao Leng seemed to have had an unpleasant conversation with him, and his face was very sour.

Zhang Hongying does one thing very much like a military wife: she won't talk about what Leng Zhi tells her to outsiders, and she never asks about things that Leng Zhi doesn't bring up. Even if she has already sensed something, she will just keep it to herself.

The mother and daughter chatted for a while and then went back to their rooms to rest.

The next morning, Lin Yuexi had just finished breakfast when Xiao Luo hurriedly called her away.

Yesterday her father was talking to her about the distribution of profits from wind power generation, and today, the people from higher up have arrived.

Xiao Luo spoke at 1.5 times faster with a bitter face: "They arrived in Lin City last night. They didn't take the train. The two drivers took turns taking a shortcut. They didn't notify us before they came, nor after they arrived in Lin City last night. They only notified us this morning before they left Lin City."

It was a surprise attack, but not a truly unexpected one.

Lin Yuexi was a little surprised that someone from the higher-ups had come, but that they had come in this way.

When they arrived at Leng Zhi's office, there was no one else inside except Leng Zhi and Zheng Weiguo.

The two seemed to have had a heated argument, and both were a bit hot-tempered.

After Lin Yuexi went inside, Xiao Luo closed the door and stood guard at the entrance without looking to the side.

"Dad, hello Uncle Zheng."

Both of them are drama queens. The moment the door opened, they were both red-faced and their necks were thick with anger. But in the blink of an eye, just like the face-changing act in Sichuan opera, they were both sitting upright.

Leng Zhi smiled broadly: "You're here."

Zheng Weiguo beamed with joy: "My dear niece, please sit down."

If Lin Yuexi hadn't been so determined, she might have gone to check if she had gone to the wrong place. These two were too scary, making her wonder if she had accidentally wandered into some kind of mentally ill hospital.

"Dad, Uncle Zheng, Xiao Luo told me on the way that someone from Beijing has arrived, is that right?" To avoid infection, Lin Yuexi got straight to the point.

"Yes, from the Beijing Research Institute. They're incredibly arrogant, looking down on me and your dad. They brag like they invented the M rocket. They're always complaining about this and that. Even sitting on a sofa, oh, in your spot, they complain that it's too hard."

Zheng Weiguo was the first to speak, his brows furrowed and his face clearly showing his disgust.

"Old Ye's third son is really useless. He tries to steal credit as soon as he hears a rumor. Does he think everyone can see through his intentions? Does he think he's the only smart one in the world?"

The Ye family is no small family. Old Master Ye is still the Ninth Elder. Just based on this, the Ye family's status in Beijing ranks among the top of all families.
