Chapter 151 Misunderstanding
How did he figure it out? Of course he figured it out; it's hard to say for sure. He really did figure it out that way.

But people probably wouldn't believe it if she said it out loud. In the end, Jiang Hui could only manage to brush it off with a laugh, saying that she just felt it. After all, feelings are the hardest thing to explain, and the other person wouldn't press her for details.

Nie Erqi remained silent for a while, unsure whether he believed her or not. Jiang Hui, not knowing what to say, simply stood there, pretending to be mute.

After a long while, the other person seemed to snap out of their thoughts and asked with some surprise, "Do you have any other questions?"

Ah... um, there is something I need to do, but the person I'm waiting for hasn't made time yet. Jiang Hui's gaze fell on someone not far away who seemed to have finally finished their trivial work and was looking over.

“She came to see me.” Stark glanced at the two who had been chatting for a while, a barely perceptible smile flashing in his eyes.

Nie Erqi: ? !!! !
"Alright, let's go." He interrupted the slightly awkward conversation between the two, speaking to someone else, though it was unclear who he was referring to.

Before Nierqi could instinctively respond, the girl nodded in agreement and then naturally followed.

Watching the two figures walk away on their own, Nielch realized he had been left behind. Could that kid have come looking for Stark in the first place... or had he misunderstood?
He really wanted to pretend to be nonchalant and say goodbye, but in the end, he couldn't resist his curiosity and somehow ended up chasing after them.

Why did he follow along in the first place? Was this to make him figure out that he had misunderstood something? Although he lost face a bit, he also got some interesting news.

Sitting one behind Jiang Hui in the back of the aircraft, he turned his head slightly to Jiang Hui, who was sitting obediently in the back, and said, "I knew you looked a little familiar. Turns out you're Senior Jiang's child."

Jiang Hui: ? ? ?
When her parents sacrificed their lives, she was neither young nor old, and didn't know much. Furthermore, her parents rarely spoke to her about their time in the military, so she knew very little. Perhaps they were planning to teach her properly later, but they never imagined their passing would be so swift.

What the original owner of this body didn't know, Jiang Hui knew even less about. This naturally included some of the interpersonal relationships of her parents. Even Stark was someone Jiang Hui only figured out by comparing the belongings left by her father with Stark's own words.

This person... looks like someone the original owner's parents knew.

"You've grown so much! You're quite different from what I imagined..."

The other person glanced at her a few times, then seemed to drift off into thought. Although they were looking at her, their mind was already wandering far away.

Stark glanced at the two people in the back row after hearing this, and said to Jiang Hui, "Ignore this guy. After all these years, he still can't control his mouth and keeps spouting nonsense." What do you mean by similar or not? Jiang Hui is Jiang Hui, and Jiang Yilin is Jiang Yilin. They are both independent individuals. Why say such things?

"Don't forget that you are now a teacher. Don't be so rude in front of the children. If Captain Jiang were here, you might not be able to leave here standing up." Nie Erqi stiffened upon hearing this, clearly realizing something, and immediately became much more obedient.

Jiang Hui glanced at the other person with some curiosity; now it was her turn to be curious. This person sounded like she had some connection with the original owner's mother, and it felt...not just a casual acquaintance. Could they be friends?
Actually, while they were the original owner's parents, Jiang Hui, who inherited this body, was also her parent. She was quite curious about these two parents, whom she had never truly met but could sense from the clues in her memories that they deeply loved their child.

Jiang's father's character is easier to understand. He is someone who can separate work and family very well, and in front of the original owner of this body, he is completely a silly father.

In my memory, he was always cheerful and happy, like a big boy, when he was rarely home. He loved taking his daughter to all sorts of places to have fun and to go shopping. You could tell from his appearance that he had wandered around a lot when he was young. He was a typical rich kid.

However, when Jiang Hui, who had inherited the original owner's memories, flipped through the notebook left behind by the other party, she saw an image of a father that the original owner had never seen on the thin pages. He was a confident, calm and powerful soldier with an extremely strong sense of justice and fearlessness. The emotion of being willing to dedicate everything to the country, family and blood relatives could be deeply felt even through the thin handwriting.

Jiang's mother, however, was a complex figure. Indeed, in the original owner's memories, this mother was cold and stern, even somewhat unapproachable.

However, it is undeniable that even so, the original owner could still feel the deep love hidden by the other party. This love was clearly different from her attitude towards others. It was absolute favoritism, the instinct of all mothers in the world.

The original owner of this body wanted to get close to her but was somewhat hesitant to be too presumptuous. However, deep down, she deeply admired her powerful mother.

It's hard to imagine that such a proud, strong, and aloof mother would have such a lively friend. Well, maybe not a friend... but the other person's tone does sound rather intimate, so Jiang Hui will just assume that for now.

She didn't seem to be thinking too much, but her curiosity was undeniable. Stark could tell what she was thinking at a glance, but he didn't want to say it directly, otherwise the currently harmonious atmosphere would probably become awkward again.

That once-famous beauty in the military always preferred to be alone and didn't like to communicate with others. Even her love affair was a one-woman show; Jiang Hui pursued her for a long time, and the two went through many trials before finally getting together. Where would she get any friends?
Nie Erqi was indeed very familiar with Jiang Yilin—in a one-sided way. He had once been a fervent "pursuer" of that unattainable beauty.

Although he ultimately failed, he was simply too stubborn. Somehow, he later became a familiar face to Jiang Yilin.

Now that Jiang Yilin is gone, you can't exactly introduce her to the other woman's child as "Nie Erqi was your mother's former suitor," can you? It's better to let the child mistakenly believe that he was their mother's good friend.

Stark turned around and looked at the flight path, sighed, and regretted letting the man catch up. Now he knew Jiang Hui's identity, and although it might help the boy with more connections in the future, he felt he had gotten himself into big trouble—not only for himself, but also for Jiang Hui himself.
