Shen Lingshuang’s first reaction was surprise, followed by a face full of smiles. “Okies!”
She then ran upstairs happily and retrieved the box at her fastest speed.
Opening the box, she took out the jade bangle in it and wore it for Shi Guang. “This was your granny’s most treasured item, and she insisted that it must be left for Fourth’s wife!”
So, it’s this? Lu Ximo could not help but chuckle out.
That was something left by granny. Because she doted on Fourth the most, that item was left behind for Fourth’s wife—she was the only one who could wear that.
Just earlier, Chief Lu was still insistent on not letting her into the family, and now, she was already there with her welcome gift. This wife of Fourth was really something.
Lu Huainan’s face was indifferent; however, his thoughts were the exact same as Lu Ximo’s. “…”
As for Yan Miaoke, she smiled out faintly, showing that it didn’t matter to her at all.
Xiao Bai was cheering at the side, “What a beautiful bangle! You look so good with it, big sister!”
After Shi Guang wore it, she snuck a glance at Lu Yanchen. His lashes were fluttering with seemingly no reaction, and thus, she merely thanked Chief Lu and Shen Lingshuang.
Chief Lu remarked coldly, “Even though I’m not really pleased with you and don’t really wish for you to enter the family, since you guys have already obtained your marriage certificate and it’s a military marriage furthermore, there’s nothing much I can say about that. After all, we’re a military family, and have to adhere to firm and strict laws, swearing to serve our country and contribute to it. To love our country, to love the party 1 , to love the people!”
Shi Guang suddenly felt as though she was going through a lesson. “Oh…”
Chief Lu continued, “The life of military personnel must be well maintained as well! You must not reach home later than 7 every night, and lights out from 10 onwards…”
Shi Guang: “…”
Return home by 7? She might be training even till 7 at times. If she was resting the next day, she might even want to stay up that night for a little just to play games or watch some television!
“… Before making any major decisions, you must report them in. Also, the place where you guys are staying must be tidied well, with the blankets folded into perfect squares. Every morning, you must wake up by 6 to go for a morning exercise. Your training schedule must also be outlined properly and not followed blindly. You have to follow through the official procedures to request for leave to organize for dates such as watching movies et cetera…”
Shi Guang, “…”
Did she just change her career?
She snuck yet another glance at Lu Yanchen and everyone else from the Lus—they seemed to be behaving normally.
Thinking about how Lu Yanchen did not seem as though he was strictly adhering to these guidelines either, she garnered that since she would just listen with a pinch of salt just as they were doing then.
Finally, after Father Lu had finished with a whole set of rules, he concluded, “… Since the Lus wouldn’t die feeding an extra mouth like yours, you can just find a spot to occupy then.”
Shi Guang: “…”
She really did not know to laugh or to cry, and at the same time, she finally understood why Lu Yanchen was such a tsundere—it ran in the family.
After lecturing Shi Guang, Chief Lu turned to Lu Yanchen and started, “Since I’ve already agreed to you guys being together, you can go report to Old Chen tomorrow then.”
Lu Yanchen rejected without thinking twice, “Not going!”
Chief Lu was displeased now. “One must build their career and their families. You’re not alone now. Do you intend to still fool around like now without finding something proper to do?”
“I am doing something proper.”
Shen Lingshuang tried helping her son. “Right, right! Yanchen is just busy earning money!”
“Have you already made up your mind to enter the business world for sure?”
Chief Lu looked as though he was about to explode soon. However, Lu Yanchen still chose to give a definite answer, “Yes.”
The atmosphere was a little tense now. Thinking of diffusing the situation, Shi Guang asked, “Looking for Old Chen would mean for you to return to the military?”
Instantly, everyone looked at her with a somewhat strange gaze.
