How to capture the evil villain? I choose to be his mother!

Chapter 158 The 77s Vicious Female Supporting Character's Scientist Mother
The last time he came to school, Teacher Chang mentioned to Zhu Wen that the children in the class were rather distant from Zhu Xiao because she spoke in a stilted manner.

This should be a relatively euphemistic statement.

It’s more like exclusion than alienation.

Teacher Chang's tone at the time was also very helpless.

She can ask the children not to discriminate against or bully Zhu Xiao, but she cannot force other children to be friends with Zhu Xiao.

So, Zhu Xiao has been in school for a while, but he doesn’t have any friends and always keeps to himself.

Zhu Wen observed Zhu Xiao at home and found that she did not show any signs of abnormality.

Zhu Wen couldn't tell whether Zhu Xiao's indifference was genuine or just a pretense.

After much thought, she decided to use this roundabout method.

Now, the effect is pretty good -

As soon as Zhu Wen left the classroom, Zhu Xiao was surrounded by enthusiasm.

The children rushed to be friends with Zhu Xiao and kept asking Zhu Xiao about Zhu Wen.

Zhu Xiao raised his head proudly, and his little face looked very proud.

The bright light in those eyes is full of pride for their mother!

Seeing this scene, a gentle smile flashed across Zhu Wen's eyes.

Zhu Xiao's school situation improved, and she no longer had to worry about her future travels...

"Going to the capital?"

Meng Hong paused with her chopsticks.

At this time, the family was eating dinner around the table.

Zhu Wen mentioned this matter in a casual manner, which instantly attracted the attention of Zhu Xiao and Meng Hong.

The corners of Zhu Xiao's mouth slowly drooped, and he pursed them in a slightly unhappy manner.

Meng Hong was also a little panicked. She was unfamiliar with the provincial capital and her daughter was almost her only support!

Upon seeing this, Zhu Wen put down his bowl and chopsticks and said in a gentle voice:
"Xiaoxiao, count the days. Mom will be back in just seven days. Time flies. When Xiaoxiao is older, Mom will take you to Beijing to play, okay?"

Zhu Wen relieved Zhu Xiao's separation anxiety and comforted Meng Hong.

"Don't worry, I've asked Sister Zhao next door to help you. If you have any problems, go to her. I'll leave you more money. If it's not enough, go to my eldest brother. I took you there once before. Mom, do you remember?"

"I'm not a three-year-old child!"

Meng Hong argued stubbornly.

After hearing this, Zhu Xiao straightened his chest and said:

“I’m six!”

She is not a three-year-old child!
Zhu Wenlian nodded:
"Okay, okay, I know you can take care of yourselves."

"of course!"

After Meng Hong finished speaking, she remembered to ask Zhu Wen what he was going to do in Beijing on this trip.

Zhu Wen was vague:

"Something about the research institute."

In fact, it was the manuscript she wrote before that came into play.

Zhu Wen learned from Professor Cai that the senior leaders had held countless meetings regarding her draft, with the ratio of support to opposition being 50-50, and everyone had their own opinions, all of which made sense.

After discussion, they finally decided to invite Zhu Wen, who wrote the proposal, to the capital for a meeting.

After all, face-to-face communication is more convincing than a few Chinese characters.

After hearing this, Zhu naturally would not refuse.

Since she wrote the proposal, she hoped that it could be implemented and play a role.

However, Professor Cai has an urgent task at hand and cannot leave for the time being.

So this time, Zhu Wen went to the capital alone.

Of course, the superiors took into consideration that it would be unsafe for Zhu Wen, a female comrade, to go out alone, so they sent a soldier to protect her throughout the trip.

...Zhu Wen didn’t say any of these.

Meng Hong also knew that Zhu Wen's unit was involved in confidentiality and many things could not be discussed openly.

She stopped there without asking further questions and even blamed Zhu Wen:
"You should have told me earlier that this was a mission assigned by the organization!"

She has a high level of ideological awareness and would not hold her daughter back at a time like this!
Zhu Wen watched Meng Hong change from being worried and uneasy to being more positive than her.

"When are you leaving? The day after tomorrow?"

"Seven days, right? Then you should bring more clothes." "How's the weather in Beijing recently?"

"I'll make some steamed buns for you to eat on the way, okay?"

"..."

Meng Hong paced back and forth at home like a tireless spinning top.

Not only Meng Hong, but Zhu Xiao also followed suit, busying herself behind her grandmother like a little tail.

Although I don’t know what I’m busy with.

Zhu Wen tried to persuade them a few times, but failed, so he just let them go.

Wait until the day of departure.

Zhu Wen received a notice that the soldiers who were protecting her would come directly to pick her up.

At seven o'clock in the morning, when he had agreed to meet up, Zhu Wen went out with his luggage, but he saw a familiar figure...

"Xiao Jiang? Why is it you!"

Meng Hong walked past Zhu Wen in surprise and quickly approached Jiang Huaian.

Jiang Huaian smiled slightly:
"Zhu Jun had other tasks, and the higher-ups sent me here because they thought Zhu Wen and I were familiar with each other."

Meng Hong patted his chest thankfully:

"That's great! Xiao Wen is going to the capital city which is so far away. I feel much more at ease with you by my side!"

Jiang Huaian stood up straight and raised his hand to salute:

"Please rest assured, Auntie, I will take good care of Comrade Zhu Wen!"

Meng Hong said happily:

"Well, I'll leave it to you."

Jiang Huaian nodded solemnly.

Zhu Wen thought the conversation was strange, so he interrupted them quickly and urged them to set off early.

Zhu Xiao had been following her quietly.

Suddenly, she raised her hand and grabbed the corner of Zhu Wen's clothes.

Zhu Wen turned around in surprise and saw the panic between his eyebrows.

Only then did she remember that they had never been separated since she returned to the village and met Zhu Xiao.

No matter how busy Zhu Wen was at work, she would go home at night and Zhu Xiao could see her.

But this time it was different.

Zhu Xiao pursed her lips, her big clear eyes with distinct black and white looked at Zhu Wen without blinking, her little hands clenched tightly.

It seemed as if he was afraid that if he let go, his mother would never come back.

Zhu Wen couldn't bear to break free.

The scene was at a stalemate for a while.

Finally, Jiang Huaian squatted down and whispered something into Zhu Xiao's ear.

Zhu Xiao looked at Jiang Huaian deeply.

Jiang Huaian smiled and nodded:

"Believe me."

Zhu Xiao then slowly let go of her little hand.

Zhu Wen was extremely surprised.

She asked Jiang Huaian:
"What did you say?"

Jiang Huaian's eyes were faintly smiling:
"This is a secret between Xiaoxiao and me."

Zhu Xiao nodded vigorously:

"……Uh-huh!"

Zhu Wen really had no way to deal with them.

She waved goodbye to Meng Hong and Zhu Xiao and got into Jiang Huaian's car.

The two arrived at the train station quickly. Jiang Huaian parked the car nearby and said that someone would come to drive it away later.

Before getting off the car, he changed his army green jacket, and his temperament suddenly changed.

Before, he had a strong military air, his back was always straight, even when he sat down he was as tall as a poplar tree.

But now, his back relaxed, his shirt collars were open, and his folded cuffs revealed the tight and visible muscle lines of his forearms, making him look a little unruly and sloppy.
