Chapter 147 Minister
A few minutes later, the guard came out and looked at the truck driver with a serious expression. He said, "This driver needs to show the relevant documents. The head of the military region's logistics department will be waiting for you at the entrance of the family compound."

"Minister?!" Wen Ci's eyes widened.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he's just the head of the logistics department; those who reach the head of the logistics department are no ordinary people, managing all aspects of the military's daily life.

His military rank was the same as other ministers, and he wielded real power.

"Okay." The guard checked the truck driver's documents and, after confirming they were in order, the gate of the military compound slowly rose, reminding the driver, "You can only drive up to the entrance of the family compound; the driver cannot move around freely."

Wen Ci nodded: "Understood."

Sitting back in the passenger seat, the truck driver, sweating profusely, said fearfully, "Girl, this military region is really scary."

The soldiers in the guard post were all carrying guns.

Wen Ci smiled and said, "I'm sorry, sir, I forgot that trucks need permission from higher-ups to enter the military area."

"It's alright," the truck driver waved his hand.

Since he had already received the freight payment, whether or not he could enter the military compound was none of his concern. He drove to the fork in the road and asked, "Which way is the family compound?"

The family quarters and the military camp share a gate. After walking a few hundred meters along the main road, there is a fork in the road. The truck driver glanced at it and saw that there were no directional signs.

"Go straight."

The truck driver drove for a few more minutes, then looked at the wide gate of the family compound in front of him, where several soldiers in military uniforms stood ramrod straight. He swallowed hard.

"Girl, there are many soldiers ahead."

Upon hearing this, Wen Ci looked toward the gate. The middle-aged man at the head of the group had an extraordinary aura, and the military rank on his shoulder was different from the others.

She was also a little nervous.

Guided by the soldiers, the truck driver stopped the truck.

Wen Ci got out of the car one after another. Just as she was about to explain to her superior, she saw the head of the life department with a gentle smile on his face. "Aci, you really do look just like your parents."

Wen Ci: "..."

Although she didn't want to admit it, her biological father was also a minister-level official. There were only a handful of ministers in the Beijing Military Region, so it was normal for them to know each other. Wen Ci put on a smile.

"My name is Jiang Guozheng, you can just call me Uncle Jiang."

Wen Ci obediently greeted, "Hello, Uncle Jiang."

After saying that, Minister Jiang looked at the clothes in the nylon bags in the truck and asked, "Aci, don't your parents give you money?"

Wen Ci shook her head: "No, I want to start my own business."

"This truckload of clothes must have cost a lot of money."

Wen Ci explained, "It was my husband's childhood friend who sold it to me on credit at half price..."

Seeing Wen Ci's nervous expression, Minister Jiang softened his tone and said gently, "Uncle is just asking as usual, there's no need to be too nervous."

Ok?
Wen Ci felt that something was amiss.

When Minister Jiang looked at me.

It's as if they're looking at someone else.

Moreover, he seemed to know that he had been switched at birth.

Wen Ci tentatively said, "Uncle Jiang, I'm not actually the daughter my parents raised since I was little, so you don't need to be so polite to me."

As he finished speaking, Minister Jiang's eyes showed a hint of pity. "Uncle knows that Aci has suffered a lot outside."

Wen Ci looked completely bewildered.

The tone of his voice, the look in his eyes, and even Minister Jiang's age.

Could he be his biological father?!
Jiang and Jiang are homophones.

Wen Ci's eyes widened.
