Reborn 1980 Married to the toughest guy in the army

Qiao Liancheng hurriedly explained, "No, that's not what I meant. I just think it would be a waste if someone with such amazing skills didn't join the army."

Jiang Wan paused for a moment and said, "I have no objection, but it's Xiao Ye's life, so we still have to ask him."

He paused for a moment and then added, "However, I don't really recommend that you send Ono to the military."

Qiao Liancheng asked, puzzled, "Why?"

Jiang Wan said, "Don't forget where you rescued him, before you found out who his parents are and what he's been through all these years."

"If we rashly send him into the army, any mistake along the way could cause irreparable damage."

Qiao Liancheng frowned deeply. He privately thought that a boy locked in a cage could not possibly be a bad person.

They must have been bullied.

Seeing that he didn't believe her, Jiang Wan simply parked the car to the side and explained it to him.

She said, "Let me tell you two stories first, both about a boy who was locked in a cage."

So Jiang Wan put her past life as a novelist to good use and concocted two stories on the spot: one about a spy from an enemy country who was accidentally bullied by dogs after falling into a trap, and the other about a spy who was locked in a cage due to injury and amnesia.

Then the protagonist saves him, leading to a terrible mistake.

After she finished telling her second story, before she could even think of a third, Qiao Liancheng waved his hand and said:

"Fine, I won't let him join the army."

"Let him receive some education first, and then we'll find a way to investigate his background!"

Jiang Wan didn't actually have any ulterior motives; she simply felt that the boy's origins were somewhat strange.

If he was ostracized because he had black hair since childhood due to illness.

All of this is understandable, but the problem is that the black snake insisted that the boy had been poisoned by snake venom.

This type of snake venom is not found in its native habitat; it must be from some kind of snake in the South African region.

Such a cunning and bizarre poison could not possibly appear in an ordinary, impoverished boy.

And then he appeared. Most importantly, this young man spoke fluent Chinese.

This means that he grew up in China.

He was later discovered at an auction house in country T, but when people asked him where he came from, who his family members were, and about his past, the boy knew nothing.

All these strange occurrences combined made Jiang Wan think twice.

But this incident also served as a wake-up call for Jiang Wan.

Qiao Liancheng and his ilk were all trained in the military; they were upright and didn't know how to be tactful.

Lacking a bit of cunning, they are less wary of people.

There is always a sense of sympathy towards ordinary people who are relatively disadvantaged.

And they were less wary.

This won't do. She thought that when she got back, she would have to discuss it with Yuan Xiaohua and Gao Xiang and give some educational lessons to the troops.

They must be made aware that spies and those with ulterior motives will use various methods to approach them.

The couple finished talking and it was almost time to go to sleep.

In the middle of the night, it started raining heavily outside, with thunder and lightning in the sky.

Jiang Wan was worried that the window wasn't closed properly, so she prepared to get up and check it.

He opened his eyes.

In the instant a flash of lightning appeared not far away, a dark shadow was reflected on the window.

The dark figure crouched on the windowsill like a monkey. Jiang Wan knew the windowsill outside her house very well; the edges were not wide, only wide enough to accommodate one adult's foot.

However, this foot isn't standing straight; it has to be turned to the side and tiptoeing.

That person squatted there so steadily on such a narrow windowsill.

Jiang Wan cried out in fright, which also startled Qiao Liancheng, who was fast asleep.

Qiao Liancheng suddenly sat up and followed Jiang Wan's gaze, and was also surprised to see the person squatting outside the window.

Qiao Liancheng couldn't help but rub his forehead and went over to open the window.

Because they live in a detached house, all the windowsills are welded with wire mesh to prevent people from climbing in through the windows at night.

That person was squatting outside the iron fence.

When Qiao Liancheng opened the window, he came face to face with the man.

It was Ono, the black-haired boy.

When Jiang Wan saw Ono, she couldn't help but rub her forehead and said:

What are you doing squatting there?

Ono blinked at Jiang Wan, and after a long while, she said three words: "I'll protect you."

Jiang Wan was speechless.

She lay back on the bed, feeling weak, and said to Qiao Liancheng, "Call Li Banxia over tomorrow and see if she knows anything about this poison. If she can't cure it, let Black Snake come and try."

Qiao Liancheng replied, "Black Snake has been recalled by the military and should be with them. He won't be coming out until the next mission. I need to tell my father-in-law."

Jiang Wan waved her hand and said, "It doesn't matter, you can do it. I just want to sleep now."

After saying that, he lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and went to sleep.

By the time dawn broke the next day, the rain had stopped.

The sun slowly peeked out from the horizon, casting its rays upon the earth, and the evaporating rain made the air even more humid.

Jiang Wan opened the window and looked outside, and saw Xiao Ye squatting on the lawn in the garden, doing something.

Jiang Wan frowned.

He called out from the window, "A-Ye, what are you doing?"

When A-Ye heard the voice, he looked up at her.

Suddenly, he took something out of his hand and showed it to Jiang Wan.

Upon closer inspection, Jiang Wan discovered that it was a very long earthworm, which was clearly alive and still wriggling.

Jiang Wan was a little annoyed. Although she wasn't afraid of earthworms, she couldn't bear to watch A Ye digging for them in the garden.

She quickly closed the window, changed her clothes, went downstairs, walked up to Ono, and asked, "Why are you digging this up?"

Ono gave Jiang Wan a silly smile and said, "It's delicious."

Jiang Wan was speechless: "This stuff doesn't taste good, and it has parasites. Throw it away."

"I'll take you to eat meat."

Ono looked at the earthworm in his hand with a pitiful expression, feeling somewhat reluctant to part with it.

Jiang Wan slapped her hand away and said, "You're not allowed to dig up this kind of thing to eat anymore, unless you have nothing else to eat."

Ono lowered her head, looking somewhat aggrieved, and remained silent.

Jiang Wan threw the earthworm back into the soil.

Then he pulled Ono into the living room and made him wash his hands.

Breakfast was ready in the living room by then, and Qiao Liancheng had returned from his morning exercise.

As soon as I entered the living room, I saw Ono squatting on the floor, looking like she had been wronged and bullied.

Qiao Liancheng asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with him?"

Jiang Wan said, "I dug up an earthworm in the garden early this morning, intending to eat it, but I scolded me."

Qiao Liancheng's expression froze for a moment.

He tilted his head and thought for a moment before saying, "Strictly speaking, earthworms are actually quite delicious."

"That thing is known internationally as one of the four great delicacies."
