Chapter 349 Eating soft food?
Suning took Ouyang Anran to a random restaurant near the school. In fact, most restaurants in China are still state-owned, so it doesn't matter which restaurant you go to for dinner, which makes it easy for someone like Suning who has difficulty making decisions to make a choice.

It was impossible for two people to eat too much, so Ouyang Anran ordered four dishes and a soup by herself. After the two of them had lunch, they no longer felt as unfamiliar as at the beginning and slowly began to talk to each other.

"Brother Jiang, I heard that it was you who asked Wei Min to return to the city to learn cooking?"

"Yes! I gave him the advice."

"Well, my uncle arranged for Wei Min to go to the military district guesthouse to learn cooking from a Shandong cuisine master. I heard from Yaning that Wei Min was very happy learning."

"Haha, that's good!" After hearing Ouyang Anran's introduction, Su Ning just smiled indifferently, "The reason I suggested that he return to the city to learn cooking was to give him another way out."

"Brother Jiang, you're really good to Wei Min and the others." Ouyang Anran looked at Su Ning with a sweet smile, as if she was looking at her beloved lover, which made Su Ning feel very uncomfortable. "Actually, I've always wanted to have an older brother like Brother Jiang."

"Haha, I am also your cousin, so it's okay for you to call me brother from now on."

Hearing Su Ning's words, Ouyang Anran did not follow Su Ning's words and called him "brother". Instead, he looked at Su Ning meaningfully and asked, "Brother Jiang, do you have a girlfriend?"

"Huh? I'm not sure if she's my girlfriend." Su Ning shook his head with a wry smile, then gave a simple explanation. "I met a girl in Ningbo. We correspond every month and get along very well, but we haven't made it clear that we're in a relationship."

"Ah? So, Brother Jiang, do you like that girl very much?"

"Haha, I feel pretty good. Maybe this is what love is!" Su Ning couldn't really say whether it was love or not. "But she comes from a good family. If I get together with her, I'm worried that people will say I'm a gigolo."

"." At this time, Ouyang Anran didn't know what to say next, because Su Ning's frankness was beyond her expectations.

"Brother Jiang, I'll be staying in Changsha for a few days. Can you often accompany me around Changsha?"

"Anran, I'm sorry, our school's management is very strict." Su Ning didn't intend to waste any more words, but directly rejected Ouyang Anran's request. "Also, I took a long leave some time ago. If I want to take more leave, it may be very difficult."

"Ah? Haha, forget it then!"

Ouyang Anran actually also belongs to the military medical department, and she also has regular military status, so she knows that what Su Ning said is the truth, but Su Ning's straightforward refusal still makes Ouyang Anran feel very uncomfortable.

After rejecting Ouyang Anran, the two of them fell into an awkward silence again. Then Su Ning went to pay for the meal and sent Ouyang Anran back to the military hospital where she was on a business trip. Finally, Su Ning went straight back to school.

Suning didn't take today's emergency to heart. He believed that his rejection today would make Ouyang Anran give up some inappropriate ideas. No matter what her intentions were, she could not warm up this "steel straight man" like him.

Since Jiang Yafei met Hou Chengnan on Green Island, she often took advantage of Sundays when Hou Chengnan was resting to bring him some delicious food. Gradually, the two got along more and more harmoniously.

"Yafei, we are dating now. Will your parents object?" Hou Chengnan looked at Jiang Yafei with concern.

"Chengnan, what are you going to do if my parents object?" Jiang Yafei did not directly answer Hou Chengnan's question. Instead, she looked at Hou Chengnan seriously and asked him a question in return.

"Ah? I don't know either!" Hou Chengnan shook his head in confusion.

"Hou Chengnan, are you ready to retreat?" Jiang Yafei stared at Hou Chengnan angrily.

"No! I won't back down.

I will continue to work hard to gain their approval.”

"Huh! That's more like it!" Jiang Yafei was very satisfied with Hou Chengnan's answer, and then she explained with a happy expression, "Haha, don't worry!
My dad is very optimistic about you, and my mom generally can't stop me."

"Huh? Really?"

"of course it's true!

You are such a fool!

I don't know why my eldest brother, who is such a smart person, likes you so much?" Jiang Yafei looked at the silly Hou Chengnan with a coquettish look.

After this conversation, Hou Chengnan and Jiang Yafei quickly fell in love. Jiang Defu just watched the development of the situation quietly, but An Jie was anxious.

An Jie also tried to arrange a blind date for his daughter Jiang Yafei so that she would gradually become estranged from Hou Chengnan. However, Jiang Yafei seemed to have seen through An Jie's plan. She kept hiding in the company and did not go home. When she occasionally went home, she would always bring Hou Chengnan with her.

An Jie, who knew Jiang Yafei's character clearly, was discouraged. Coupled with Jiang Defu's secret connivance, An Jie was disheartened and had a big quarrel with Jiang Defu, and then hid back in her parents' home again.

Since Jiang Defu was promoted to Green Island, An Jie has been returning to her parents' home more and more frequently. Because An Tai and An Jie's sister-in-law are very grateful to An Jie and his wife for taking care of their children, they are very considerate in serving An Jie at her parents' home.

"Anjie, did you have a fight with your brother-in-law again?" An Tai looked at his sister speechlessly.

"Humph! Jiang Defu is getting more and more excessive.

Now he actually condones Yafei and Hou Chengnan's relationship."

"Hou Chengnan? Is he the child on the island?" An Jie's sister-in-law also looked over curiously.

"Well, he's currently attending military school at the Green Island Artillery School."

"What? Isn't that the school my brother-in-law used to attend?"

"Ok!"

"Then Hou Chengnan's conditions are acceptable? Why don't you agree, sister?" The Antai couple looked at each other in surprise, and were both very satisfied with Hou Chengnan's conditions.

"Humph! He's just a private who attended military school. Nothing special."

"." Hearing the disdain in their sister Anjie's tone, Antai and his wife didn't know what to say.

"Anjie, I heard Jiang Changyi is doing pretty well now?"

"Well, he's currently a college student at a military academy. Jiang Defu said he'll be a battalion commander after graduation."

"Ah? So how's your relationship with him?"

"Not very well! But the kids get along pretty well with him."

“Well, that’s fine.

With the children as the support, if Jiang Changyi becomes prosperous in the future, it will also benefit your Jiang family."

"Ah! Who can tell what will happen in the future?"

Without An Jie's interference, Jiang Yafei and Hou Chengnan no longer have any obstacles. With the support of Jiang Defu, they are finally together. Jiang Yafei will no longer be the old maid in the original drama, and of course she will not be the son of Old Wang next door, Wang Haiyang.

Liao Weimin looked at Su Ning who was reading in the dormitory, and then he had an expression as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, repeating it several times. Finally, he mustered up the courage to ask.

"Changyi, last Sunday I saw a very beautiful girl waiting for you at the school gate. Could that be your girlfriend?"

"Haha, no! Just a distant relative."

"Ah? Does she have a boyfriend?" Liao Weimin suddenly became excited.

Seeing Liao Weimin so excited, Suning quickly understood his little thoughts, put down the book in his hand, and looked at Liao Weimin with a playful expression.

"Weimin, what do you want to say?"

"I'm just asking casually." "Hehe, she probably doesn't have a boyfriend.

If you have any ideas, I can give you her contact information."

"Ah? Really?" Hearing Su Ning's explanation, Liao Weimin almost jumped up in surprise, "Changyi, thank you so much."

"Wei Min, don't be so quick to thank me.

I will try to contact her first to see if she agrees."

"Haha, I understand!"

Su Ning never thought that there would be any development between him and Ouyang Anran. If she agreed to contact Liao Weimin, it would actually be a very good thing. After all, Liao Weimin came from a good family and would definitely not treat Ouyang Anran unfairly.

After making up his mind, Suning directly called Jiang Yafei of Green Island and asked her to help contact Ouyang Anran and briefly explained the situation to her.

"Ah? Brother, why are you so concerned about An Ran's affairs?"

"Haha, she came to my school to look for me last time, and she was seen by a classmate. Then my classmate wanted to get to know her. I was just a middleman at best!"

"Yeah, bro, I get it!

I will give you an answer as soon as possible."

Ouyang Anran and An Jie are huge troubles for him. Although Suning doesn't know what Ouyang Anran wants to do, it is better for him not to get in touch with her. There are many better fish in the sea, so why bother with this "little red flower".

As for whether Ouyang Anran is willing to contact Liao Weimin, that is her personal freedom. This can be regarded as a perfect end to the ill-fated relationship between Jiang Changyi and Ouyang Anran.

What Suning didn't expect was that Ouyang Anran actually refused directly. It seemed that his rejection made Ouyang Anran very angry, and the other party was unwilling to pay attention to him anymore.

In fact, this is exactly what Suning wants, but seeing Liao Weimin with a "pig-like" face, Suning can only say sorry.

"Weimin, the other party replied that he is unwilling to contact strangers."

"Ah? Never mind!" Liao Weimin was clearly disappointed, then he forced a smile and said, "But, Changyi, I still want to thank you."

Su Ning patted Liao Weimin's shoulder, then explained with a wry smile, "Weimin, actually, I'm not familiar with this girl. When you saw her that time, it was also the first time we met. I can't say it's significant enough."

"Yeah, I can understand that."

Jiang Weiguo still brought back a girlfriend like in the original drama, but this time they went directly to Green Island, and An Jie still had a serious conflict with the girl.

Maybe it was because Jiang Yafei did not follow An Jie's arrangements, so An Jie directed all his firepower at Jiang Weiguo. Poor Jiang Weiguo became a victim and was humiliated by An Jie.

"Jiang Weiguo, tell me what you can accomplish?
After serving in the army for so many years, he is still just a small company commander!

Do you think you are worthy of me and your father?"

"Mom, am I really useless in your eyes?" Jiang Weiguo looked at An Jie sadly.

Meeting his son Jiang Weiguo's heartbroken eyes, An Jie couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, but when he saw Bai Hongmei standing next to Jiang Weiguo inexplicably, An Jie revealed an expression of disgust that was difficult to hide.

"Yes! In my heart, you are useless!"

"Mom, you disappoint me so much!" Jiang Weiguo looked at An Jie with an incredible look, then took Bai Hongmei's hand and said, "Hongmei, I will take you away from here. This place doesn't belong to us."

"." The sensitive Bai Hongmei of course noticed the disgust in An Jie's eyes when he looked at her, and she also agreed very much with Jiang Weiguo's proposal.

Looking at his eldest son Jiang Weiguo and Bai Hongmei who left just like that, An Jie felt like his lungs were about to explode with anger. Perhaps it was because Jiang Defu had broken free from the constraints of the island and came to the bigger stage of Green Island Base, which made An Jie feel superior involuntarily.

"Jiang Weiguo, where are you going?"

"Mom, I don't know why you became like this today? Or maybe you have always been like this!" Jiang Weiguo looked back at his mother, his eyes filled with disappointment. "Since you don't understand me as your son, then I will live the life I want."

"Jiang Weiguo, if you dare to leave this house, you will never come back."

"Hmph!" Jiang Weiguo took Bai Hongmei and left without looking back.

Seeing that Jiang Weiguo really ran away from home in anger, An Jie's heart was filled with regret, and then he collapsed to the ground as if all the strength had been drained from his body.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Yaning, who was standing by, finally came to his senses from the shock and immediately ran over to pull up the limp An Jie.

"Yaning, do you think I'm a failure as a mother?"

"Mom, my brother is no longer a child. You don't need to interfere too much in his private life."

"Yaning, even you don't understand me?" An Jie looked at his little daughter in disbelief. He didn't expect that she didn't understand him either. "Isn't it all for your own good that I do this?

Why are you doing this to me?
Yafei is like this, and now Jiang Weiguo is like this too. What sin did I commit in my previous life? "

"Mom" Jiang Yaning was also confused by An Jie's questioning at this time, and just stared blankly at her crazy mother.

Jiang Defu happened to come home from get off work at this time, and saw An Jie who was hysterical. "An Jie, what are you doing again?"

"Dad, go find my eldest brother!" Jiang Yaning felt like he had found a savior when he saw his father Jiang Defu coming home from get off work. "My eldest brother just had a big fight with my mom, and now he's run away from home with his girlfriend Bai Hongmei."

"what?"

Jiang Defu suppressed his inner confusion, quickly put down the briefcase in his hand, and immediately went out to chase after them. Realizing that Jiang Weiguo and the other man would definitely choose to take the train, Jiang Defu got in his own car and headed straight for Ludao Railway Station.

Seeing Jiang Defu chasing out, An Jie and Jiang Yaning both breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously. An Jie, who had woken up at this time, also regretted it.

Now thinking back on what she had said just now, it was indeed too intense. She realized that what happened today might be a hurdle that she and Jiang Weiguo would never be able to overcome, and it could only be left to time to slowly smooth things over.

Jiang Defu hurried to the train station and saw his eldest son Jiang Weiguo. However, he seemed to be standing there in a daze. His lonely figure made Jiang Defu, as a father, feel heartbroken.

"Weiguo?"

"Dad, you're here?" Jiang Weiguo turned and looked at Jiang Defu.

"Weiguo, where is Bai Hongmei?"

"She's gone! She's left me forever!"

"what?"

"Dad, go back!" Jiang Weiguo turned to look at his surprised father, then smiled bitterly, "I'm very upset and want to go out for a walk. The vacation is over, and I will go back to the army by myself."

"Defending the country."

Looking at his son Jiang Weiguo's lonely back, Jiang Defu was dumbfounded at this moment. He suddenly realized that it was not necessarily a good thing for the child to grow up. The child's own thoughts might be in serious conflict with those of adults.
