Dare to shirk responsibility? This adorable little one will tear down your military district!

This is hardly the "Meng Changhe" who served as a soldier in the countryside.

This is clearly Commander Gu, the "Living Yama," who just returned from the border battlefield and dealt a severe blow to those enemy agents!

"Did you...did you see it clearly?" Lin Wanrou was unsure. Seeing the sentry's face turn deathly pale, she panicked even more, her hand trembling as she tried to take the photo back. "Doesn't it look like him? He was younger when he left..."

"No! Sister-in-law... no, that..." The sentry suddenly came to his senses and became somewhat flustered.

He looked at Lin Wanrou, then at the three-year-old baby next to her.

I didn't look closely before, but now that I see the resemblance, this little girl's features are practically identical to Chief Gu's! Especially that cold, indifferent look she gives everyone—it's amazing!

It's over.

What did I just do? Make the commander's wife kneel down? And even try to arrest the commander's daughter as a vagrant?

The sentry felt that his military career might be coming to an end, and he might have to spend his whole life feeding pigs in a pig-raising unit.

"Comrade... please don't rush." ​​The sentry stammered, instinctively standing at attention with his back ramrod straight. "Could I borrow this photo for a moment? This is a big deal; I need to get our platoon leader to identify it."

Lin Wanrou was taken aback by the other party's sudden politeness and nodded blankly.

The sentry took the photo with both hands, as if holding an imperial edict. He turned and rushed into the guard post, his hands trembling as he grabbed the telephone receiver, shaking it several times before finally connecting to the duty room.

"Platoon leader! Something terrible has happened! Um... a woman came to the door with a child, holding a picture of Commander Gu and looking for her husband!"

"What Commander Gu? It's our living devil Commander Gu! Yes! That woman said her man's name is Meng Changhe, but the photo is definitely of the Commander himself! Oh my, come and take a look, that child looks exactly like the Commander, there's no mistake!"

After hanging up the phone, the sentry wiped his sweat and ran out again, forcing a smile onto his face.

"Um... Sister-in-law, and this... Young Red Army soldier, it's sunny outside, why don't you come stand in the shade of the guard post for a while? Shall I get you a glass of water?"

Meng Yaya raised an eyebrow.

This change of heart is even faster than those opportunistic survivors in the apocalypse.

It seems that his adoptive father not only survived, but is doing quite well. At least he could scare a gatekeeper like that; he must be of a high rank.

"No need." Meng Yaya tossed the small stone back into the flower bed, dusted her hands off, and said, "My mom's easily frightened. Just tell us, are the people in the photo in there?"

Just as the sentry was about to speak, a series of hurried footsteps came from inside the large iron gate.

An officer with a pistol slung over his shoulder rushed out with two soldiers. The officer, his face full of suspicion, shouted as soon as he emerged, "Where is he? Where is the photo? What nonsense are you spouting! Commander Gu has been single for years; he's a well-known bachelor throughout the entire military region. Where would he get a wife?"

"Platoon leader, this isn't just a joke! Look!" The sentry quickly handed over the photo.

The platoon leader took the photo, but the words of reprimand he wanted to say stuck in his throat.

He held the photo up high, looked at it again and again in the sunlight, and then shifted his gaze to Meng Yaya's little face.

Upon seeing this, even the platoon leader was stunned.

Like.

so similar.

If a photograph still requires identification, then this living, breathing young girl standing here is a walking DNA test report. That still-developing, spirited air is exactly the same as Chief Gu's stern, reprimanding demeanor.

"This..." The platoon leader felt a chill run down his spine.

The commander not only secretly got married, but his child is already so big? This is a serious violation of discipline, and it's gossip that could cause an uproar in the military compound!

"Sister-in-law," the platoon leader's attitude immediately became extremely respectful, even showing a hint of awe, "You said your husband's name is Meng Changhe?"

Lin Wanrou nodded, holding Ya Ya's hand tightly: "Yes, from Xiahe Village."

"Meng Changhe... Gu Changfeng..." The platoon leader muttered these two names, having a general idea of ​​what was going on. For some units carrying out special missions, changing names was a common practice.

"Whether the surname is Meng or Gu, as long as they're here, that's fine," Meng Yaya interjected in her childish voice, her stomach rumbling at the opportune moment. "Uncle, can you provide meals? My mom is starving and about to faint."

Upon hearing this, the platoon leader felt an urge to slap the sentry from earlier.

Let the leader's wife and daughters go hungry at the gate? If that notoriously protective Gu Yanwang found out, their entire guard platoon would have to do a 50-kilometer cross-country run with heavy loads!

"Quick! Bring that jeep over here!" the platoon leader shouted, then turned to Lin Wanrou with an apologetic smile, "Sister-in-law, I'm so sorry, it was our mistake. The commander is in a meeting in the innermost office building, it's quite a distance, I'll take you there right away."

Before Lin Wanrou could react, she was ushered into a convertible jeep.

Just moments ago, they were being driven away as vagrants, but now they've become honored guests.

The car drove through the gate and sped along the wide cement road. The poplar trees on both sides rushed past, and occasionally you could see soldiers running in formation, shouting thunderous slogans.

Meng Yaya leaned against the car window, her big eyes darting around.

The military compound was much larger than she had imagined. It not only had office buildings, but also a large residential area for family members, training grounds, and even a research institute that appeared to be heavily guarded.

If this place were in a post-apocalyptic world, it would be a top-tier safe zone.

It seems this move was the right one; we must cling tightly to that cheap father's coattails.

The jeep stopped in front of a red-brick office building. The security here was noticeably tighter than at the entrance, with guards every few steps.

The platoon leader jumped out of the vehicle, told Lin Wanrou and her daughter to wait a moment, and jogged into the building. Less than two minutes later, he came running out again, covered in sweat, followed by a young officer wearing glasses and carrying a briefcase.

That was Gu Changfeng's confidential secretary, Xiao Wang.

Xiao Wang looked suspicious. He had been following the leader for two years and had never heard of the leader having a wife from his hometown.

But the platoon leader was so confident, even saying he saw a "miniature version of the commander," that he had no choice but to bite the bullet and come down to take a look.

However, the moment Xiao Wang saw Meng Yaya, his hand, which was pushing up his glasses, froze.

Case solved.

No need for review.

With looks like that, if this girl had no connection with the leader, he'd eat the briefcase in his hand!

"Hello, sister-in-law!" Xiao Wang immediately stood at attention and saluted, his voice loud and clear.

Lin Wanrou was startled and hurriedly waved her hands, "Don't...don't call me that, I'm just a country woman..."

"Since you're here, you must be a military family member."

Although young, Xiao Wang was shrewd and persuasive. He noticed Lin Wanrou's awkwardness and the shrewd glint in the eyes of the young girl next to her.

"The commander is holding a post-battle debriefing meeting in the conference room on the third floor. This meeting... is a bit serious, and ordinary people don't dare to go in and disturb it."

Actually, it was Gu Changfeng who was angry.

I could hear the sound of someone slamming their fist on the table and Commander Gu roaring as I passed by the conference room. Going in now and inviting trouble would be tantamount to suicide.

"Shall we wait outside?" Lin Wanrou asked softly.

"How about... we go to the cafeteria to get something to eat first?" Xiao Wang tentatively suggested.

Meng Yaya rubbed her stomach. Although she really wanted to eat, she was afraid that things might change if she waited too long.

Moreover, she also wanted to see what this father, who had terrified the entire military region like, actually looked like.

"No need to wait." Meng Yaya jumped out of the car, her short legs carrying her head held high as she walked towards the office building entrance. "I'm going to find him. If he doesn't even recognize his own wife and children, then I'll tear this military region down."
