During that meeting, the two of them sat down together and chatted about family matters.
Naturally, the topic of their own children came up, and Cheng Nanfang was quite troubled when it came to his two kids.
The daughter was somewhat better, no longer causing them so much worry.
But it was this son that really wore him out.
When Cheng Yue was born, he was already not young. This child was troublesome even in the womb; his birth was difficult, taking three days and three nights before he was finally delivered.
The child had a stubborn temperament, resistant to discipline from a young age.
In order to properly educate this child, Cheng Nanfang hardened his heart and left him in the military at a young age, so he could taste hardship, get a feel for the atmosphere of the barracks, hone his will, and incidentally receive patriotic education.
This made Cheng Nanfang’s wife anxiously try to stop him, but to no avail!
The child was sent to the military, where he trained and tumbled along with the troops! As a result, when he grew up, he developed a quite severe rebellious attitude.
Originally, Cheng Nanfang wanted him to apply to a military academy, but the boy deliberately went against the family’s wishes.
When it came time to submit university preferences, he secretly applied to Military Medical University, and it wasn’t even close to home.
Thus, Cheng Yue ended up attending university in their Northern Military Region. Originally, his two buddies were also supposed to go to National Defense University, but he somehow convinced them to follow him.
"No wonder this kid is so arrogant!" Hearing about his antics gave Zhang Yun a headache, "You mean his parents can’t control him?"
"They can only ensure he doesn’t make major mistakes in his general direction! If he agrees to behave well but still harasses An Hao after going over, what can you do?" Ning Yibin glanced over the challenge letter again and thought for a moment before saying, "This kid may be reckless, but he’s also straightforward, isn’t he? Otherwise, would he dare to issue a challenge?"
"What do you mean by that? What should we do?" With this relationship in mind, Zhang Yun also had to consider, after all, Cheng Yue’s father was a leader of another military region; it wouldn’t be good to handle the situation too harshly.
"I accept his challenge!" Qin Jian responded to the challenge without hesitation.
Hearing her son speak, Zhang Yun suddenly remembered that she and her husband had been so caught up in their conversation that they had forgotten their son and daughter-in-law.
"You’re going to join in his nonsense?" Zhang Yun disagreed.
"I agree!" An Hao supported Qin Jian having a competition with him. Earlier, she didn’t want to escalate the situation and also thought that Cheng Yue was just being momentarily foolish, which was why he wanted the so-called ’duel’ with Qin Jian.
If she refused him twice, he would likely back down on his own.
Unexpectedly, he persisted in wanting to see Qin Jian, and this letter was inadvertently seen by his in-laws, revealing Cheng Yue’s background.
Once his background was taken into consideration, dealing with the matter became difficult.
It might be better to pretend they didn’t know who he was and use the duel as an opportunity to teach him a lesson.
According to what Ning Yibin had said earlier, An Hao felt that Cheng Yue just needed someone who could keep him in check. Once Qin Jian got him to follow order, future troubles would naturally dissapear.
An Hao articulated her thoughts clearly, which coincided with what Qin Jian had in mind.
"Good! I also think it makes sense!" Ning Yibin nodded in agreement with his son and daughter-in-law’s idea.
"Then I’ll reply to him tonight!"
"Good! Just remember! Only give him a small lesson, don’t injure him!" Ning Yibin cautioned Qin Jian repeatedly.
"Dad, I know my limits!" Qin Jian said.
