Wife is Fierce, Don't Mess With Her!

Through the chatter during dinner, Gu Qingjiu found out that this Hu Yan was her father’s good friend of many years.

In the past, Gu Hong’s company crossed paths with Hu Yan’s work, and back then Gu Hong was the one in charge of dealing with Hu Yan.

Later on, Hu Yan changed his job and went overseas, but because he had similar interests with Gu Hong in terms of work, they became good friends and still kept in contact even when all this time he was overseas.

They weren’t close friends, just friends who would chat a word or two now and then.

Hence, now that they were back, it was Hu Yan who especially came to their house for a visit.

Carefully comparing the timelines, Gu Qingjiu should be outside and wouldn’t be at home for some time in her previous life. Hence, she didn’t come across Hu Yan.

But unexpectedly, she still bumped into him in this life.

But that vague impression Gu Qingjiu had when she was at the Yu family still bothered her.

From their conversation, she learned that Hu Yan returned to the country because a local company had poached him. As for whether that company was the Yu family’s enterprise, Gu Qingjiu couldn’t tell yet.

During the time she saw him, she should have been around the Yu family for about a year.

Gu Qingjiu, who was mulling over these matters, didn’t have much appetite. But then, she suddenly heard Hu Yan saying, “Pal, are you really planning to let Qingjiu serve in the military?”

Now that she became the topic of conversation, Gu Qingjiu instantly lifted her head up.

Gu Hong gazed at Gu Qingjiu. He had the warmth of a benevolent father in his eyes as he smiled. “She was the one who insisted on joining the military. I too wanted her to learn something else, but the child is unwilling. Can’t help it, I can only let her be.”

“She’s at an age where she should be enjoying life. It’s too tough on her to be joining the military at this young age!”

Hu Yan’s wife, Changhu, joined in the conversation. She gazed at her own daughter and smiled helplessly. “We’ve spoiled our Linghan since she’s a child, and she can’t take the slightest bit of hardship. If you ask her to join the military, you might as well kill her.”

Hu Linghan raised her head, too. Her delicate brows furrowed slightly. Displeased, she pouted a little as she said, “Well I don’t have to join the military!”

By this, she meant she did not need to join the military.

This actually sounded a little awkward. However, Qi Yuefeng resolved it with a few mere words, “Exactly. I raised Qingjiu well, and she used to be incredibly delicate. If you asked her to mop the floor, she would pant for a long while. Who would believe her when she suddenly claimed she wanted to join the military? Much less believe the fact she stuck it out for two months!”

Qi Yuefeng was still a little begrudging about this.

After all, she hoped to keep Gu Qingjiu by her side.

Gu Qingjiu gazed at Qi Yuefeng, pursing her lips and smiling in a guilty manner. She was not sure of what to say.

Gu Qingmo looked at his mother and helped Gu Qingjiu out of this. “Alright Mom, just let Qingjiu do whatever she wishes to do. You shouldn’t be too narrow-minded. It is indeed tough serving in the military, but it’s not without its benefits. Look at the major transformation so many people underwent after joining the army. Moreover, it sounds so impressive to be able to say our family raised a soldier!”

Qi Yuefeng rolled her eyes at him. “Yeah, impressive!”

Everyone at the table erupted in laughter, and this topic ended on this note.

Staring at the smiley faces of those present, Gu Qingjiu felt complex emotions in her heart.

Actually, she didn’t ask for a lot. Her parents were considering her future, but she had no choice because she knew what would happen in the future.

Now, her family wore blissful smiles on their faces.

She had to pay a little price if she wanted to keep this in her life!

Because it was worth it.
