On his first night as a substitute bride accompanying the army, the abstinent tycoon dropped his pre

Chapter 111 Acting School

"What, are you still hiding your sister from us?"

Hearing the teasing from the crowd, Jiang Chen's brow relaxed, and he explained with a smile, "It's not me who's hiding it, it's Minister Jiang who wants to hide it."

He directly shifted the blame to his father.

"Who is the child next to her?"

Jiang Chen tilted his head, thought for a moment, and said, "It seems to be the kid from the neighbor's house in the Northwest. He's never been to the capital before, so I brought him here to broaden his horizons while Aci was on vacation."

Beijing, as the capital, is a city that countless people yearn for.

"Then how did your sister get to know Captain Xu of the 2nd Regiment of the 4th Division?"

"Captain Xu?" Jiang Chen thought for a moment, "Xu Wen?"

"That's right, it's Xu Wen, the one your dad has been admiring lately."

Almost everyone knows the outstanding officers and cadres in the military, especially those who are favored by their superiors and will be promoted soon.

People would gossip about it in private.

"I don't know." Jiang Chen shook his head.

He suddenly remembered a scene at home: Wen Ci brought a child he didn't know home. Judging from this, it must be because he wanted his father to help him with something.

What kind of favor could possibly require Xuwen's help?

As Jiang Chen was pondering, Wen Ci led Xiao Chuan past, and his comrade nudged him with his elbow, asking, "Your sister's gone, aren't you going to say goodbye?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen dropped his chopsticks and chased after her out of the cafeteria, calling out, "Wen Ci, wait a minute."

Wen Ci stopped and turned to look at him. "What is it?"

"sorry."

Jiang Chen sincerely apologized, admitting that he shouldn't have so casually slandered the girl's reputation, especially since she was his biological sister with whom he shared blood.

Seeing that Wen Ci didn't speak, Jiang Chen continued to apologize: "I was confused for a moment and said the wrong thing."

Wen Ci was silent for a moment, and when she spoke again, her voice was as cold as an iceberg. She said slowly and deliberately, "You don't think that I'll forgive you just because you apologized, do you?"

Even if Jiang Chen apologizes, she will not forgive him.

There's a story about hammering nails into a cherry tree, though no one knows it yet, but those words Jiang Chen uttered in a moment of confusion...

Like a nail driven into a cherry tree.

Even if the nails were removed after an apology, the nail wounds remained on the tree and will stay there forever.

Jiang Chen's face turned pale at what he was said. He swallowed hard and tried to save face, saying, "I don't want you to forgive me. Apologizing is what I should do."

After Jiang Chen left, Wen Ci remembered Xiao Chuan's presence, smiled, and said, "How about Auntie tells you a story?"

"Uh-huh."

She told Xiaochuan the whole story of "The Cherry Tree Nail," and asked, "Xiaochuan, what did you learn from the story?"

Xiao Chuan is seven years old this year and is of primary school age. As Suzhou is a major province for education, she believes that Xiao Chuan has already learned the knowledge to understand stories.

Ogawa tilted his head. "You should consider the consequences of your actions. The little boy hammered in the nail, and although he eventually pulled it out, the cherry tree was also damaged."

Wen Ci nodded: "Your understanding is not wrong. Words are like nails; you have to consider the consequences. You can't just say things carelessly, understand?"

"Know it!"

Wen Ci was teaching Xiao Chuan how to be a person.

I just got home.

The landline in the living room rang, and she walked over to answer it, asking, "What's up?"

"Miss Jiang, there's a couple at the military district gate who want to see you."

"Looking for me?" Wen Ci frowned, then couldn't help but think:
Could it be that Huo Jingyuan's parents found out he was seriously injured and returned to Beijing?

Thinking of this, Wen Ci suddenly panicked. Although an ugly daughter-in-law always has to meet her in-laws, without Huo Jingyuan acting as a mediator, she didn't know how awkward it would be.

"Miss Jiang, should we let them in, or will you come to receive them?"

After a moment's thought, Wen Ci said, "I'll take it."

Regardless of whether the couple were Huo Jingyuan's parents or not, they should have gone to the gate to see who it was and personally greeted them to show their importance.

Wen Ci put the landline back in its place and looked at Xiao Chuan, instructing him, "Xiao Chuan, stay home and watch TV or take a nap. Don't touch any electrical appliances or anything like that, okay?"

Seven or eight-year-old boys are at a very mischievous age.

"Okay." Xiao Chuan nodded obediently.

At this moment, outside the Beijing Military Region, the Wen family couple, with Wen's mother looking at the soldiers on duty, asked fearfully, "Do you think Wen Ci will agree to see us?"

"We've raised her for at least twenty years!"

The soldier who made the call came out of the guardhouse, his stern face slowly revealing his voice: "You're here. Miss Jiang is on her way."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Wen arrogantly raised his lip, "See what I told you? She even came to the door to greet us herself, which means that brat is still the same as before."

Wen's mother smiled as well.

She was also worried that Wen Ci would hate them.

However, she still felt a subconscious fear when she looked at the soldier in military uniform, because Jiang Zhenjun had learned that his biological daughter had been deliberately switched at birth.

He took a small group of his cronies directly to the countryside to arrest people.

Not long after, Wen Ci walked to the entrance of the family compound and looked around but did not see Huo Jingyuan's parents.

Although he has not yet met Huo Jingyuan's parents.

However, according to Huo Jingyuan's description, his parents were engaged in scientific research.

In Wen Ci's imagination, her parents should be the kind of learned, cultured, gentle, and refined people.

Wen Ci returned to the guard room, a smile plastered on her face, and asked, "I'm the one who called earlier. Where is the couple you were looking for?"

"That."

The soldier on duty pointed to the couple squatting by the roadside.

Wen Ci looked in the direction he pointed, and saw the Wen couple squatting on the ground in a lewd manner. She tilted her head and asked, "Are these Huo Jingyuan's parents?"

A moment later, Wen Ci denied his own idea.

These could never be Huo Jingyuan's parents.

Suddenly, Wen Ci remembered that the lewd couple in front of her were Jiang Ye's biological parents, and also her adoptive parents who had 'raised' the original owner of this body for twenty years.

When Wen's mother saw Wen Ci standing in the guardhouse, she stood up from the ground, waved with a kind smile, and said, "Daughter, your father and I are here."

Wen Ci gave the Wen couple a cold look.

She wanted to see what this couple wanted, having come all the way from the countryside to the Beijing military region to see her. She asked calmly, "Do you need something from me?"

Wen's mother tugged at her husband's sleeve and whispered, "I feel like Wen Ci is different from before. She would never look at us like that before."

"Then what?"

As he spoke, Mr. Wen stepped forward, his eyes filled with tears, "I'm so glad to see you again, my daughter. How have you been these days away from home?"

Wen Ci saw her father's tear-filled eyes and lowered her head to smile slightly.

Now I finally understand why Jiang Ye's acting skills are so good.

It turns out they inherited it from the old ones.

Tears come so easily, and they're the classic Qiong Yao tears. With such superb acting skills, he could definitely have a place in the entertainment industry.
