After only a week at home, He Cheng'an and Zhang Peiyao have developed a very good neighborly relationship, like now.

"Xiao Jie, I fried some chicken legs. Go and give some to Teacher He. Don't eat them secretly. We left some for you at home." Zhang Peiyao shouted in the kitchen. Okay, mom started again. This is the second time today.

Yi Jie stood at the door of He Chengan's house with a wrinkled face, holding a big bowl of fried chicken legs that were so delicious that they were enough to kill you.

"My mother asked me to deliver this to you." Yi Jie squeezed out these words from between her teeth. She had lost count of how many times she had delivered things to you in the past few days. They might as well just eat together!

He Chengan took it happily and whispered, "Thank you for your hard work, Colonel."

He immediately changed his tone and raised his voice and said, "Xiao Jie, please thank Auntie for me. I bought some fruits here. You can take them and eat them."

"Okay," Yi Jie smiled stiffly.

He Chengan thoughtlessly ignored Yi Jie's fake smile. After she left, he closed the door and happily sat at the dining table, eating the fried chicken legs made by Aunt Zhang.

He was raised by his grandmother. When she passed away when he was sixteen, he joined the army without hesitation. From then on, the only thing that could warm him was the brotherhood in the army. Unexpectedly, this arrangement was different from the previous bloody storms. It made him feel the long-lost family warmth. He gradually stopped treating this as a task and enjoyed himself. He really regarded Yi Jie's mother as a close elder. The eye contact between Yi Jie and him was like the play of siblings, which was very interesting.

Hmm, it smells so good. The taste of this chicken leg is just like the one my grandma fried. He Chengan tilted his head back to prevent the tears from falling.

Yi Jie was sitting at the dining table biting a chicken leg with a vengeful heart. Yi Chen looked at her sister's fierce expression, blinked his big eyes and asked: "Sister, why don't you look like you are eating a chicken leg, but like you are going to hit someone?"

"No, how could that be?" Yi Jie noticed her mother looking at her, and could only answer Yi Chen with a fake smile. After getting the answer, Yi Chen felt a chill inexplicably around him, he shook his head and continued to chew the chicken leg conscientiously.

"Xiao He has no elders at home, and he usually can't even have a hot meal. What a sensible child. A distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. Help as much as you can. Look, doesn't he always return gifts for whatever you give him? Besides, he is a teacher in your school. Why would you be so resentful for giving him something?" Zhang Peiyao said, observing her daughter's heart. No one knows a daughter better than her mother. She can know Yi Jie's little thoughts just by thinking with her toes.

"Ms. Zhang Peiyao, your daughter is very busy. She has endless test papers and exercise books to do, as well as video shooting and editing work. If you only send her food once or twice, we won't say anything. We are not stingy people, right? But who can bear your three meals a day, one or two times for each meal, plus afternoon tea and midnight snacks! Why not just eat them together? Why torture a little girl like me?" Yi Jie complained aggrievedly.

"Oh, you are right. I will go tell Xiao He right away. Why am I so stupid that I didn't think of this?" After saying this, Zhang Peiyao went to knock on the door of the house opposite hers in surprise.

"Sister, why do I feel that mom prefers Brother Cheng An as a son?" Yi Chen said with a pout.

"Forget your feelings. She just wants He Chengan to be her son." Yi Jie had bad intentions and teased Yi Chen with an expressionless face.

This stirred up a hornet's nest, and Yi Chen burst into tears. Zhang Peiyao and He Chengan who just walked in saw him.

"Mom doesn't like me anymore." Yi Chen said while crying and feeling aggrieved.

Zhang Peiyao went forward and hugged the little guy to comfort him. When she found out that it was Yi Jie who did it, Yi Jie had already sneaked back to her room.

"Yi Jie! You bully your brother again!"

Zhang Peiyao's roar spread throughout the house, and He Chengan smiled knowingly. It was great. It was such a blessing to have a family to play with. It would be nice if the mission could continue like this.

It was decided that He Cheng'an would eat together with Yi Jie's family. Seeing how he made her mother happy every day, Yi Jie was looking forward to Pei Yanan's appearance to dampen his arrogance.

On this day, Yi Jie was filming her latest vlog at home, with Yi Chen and He Chengan helping with the lighting.

"Come in, come in."

When I turned around, I saw Ms. Zhang warmly greeting Pei Yanan at the door and inviting her into the house.

"Let me introduce you. This is Xiao Pei. She works part-time in our store. There was no place to stay in the store, so I thought there was still room for her at home, so I brought her back."

Yi Jie looked at Pei Yanan's current appearance. How miserable she was. Her clothes were washed white and full of patches. Her face was pale and her body was thin. If she hadn't maintained basic

They were neat and tidy, like modern refugees. Tsk tsk tsk, just like He Chengan, they were both very good at disguising themselves.

"Then let her sleep in my room." Yi Jie took the initiative and held Pei Yanan's hand in a friendly manner.

"That's what I thought. You two can just sleep together for the next few days. Then we'll put a small bed in your room that can be spread out." Zhang Peiyao made the decision immediately.

"Xiao Jie, come here for a moment."

Zhang Peiyao pulled Yi Jie aside and told her, "Xiao Nan is only eighteen years old. She is an orphan. The orphanage is closed and no one supports her education. She has to work to earn tuition. She is so pitiful. Please take care of her more."

"Don't worry, mom. I know my limits."

The three of them finally got together, and while Zhang Peiyao was making dinner and Yi Chen was watching cartoons, they stayed in Yi Jie's room and held their first communication meeting.

"Our preliminary plan has been basically completed. The next step is to arrange for Yanan to be adopted by my mother and go to school with me. By the way, has the backup team settled down?" Yi Jie looked at the two of them.

"The backup team has successfully moved into No. 129, Funing Street, west of Wen County. The store is called Haoxue Stationery Store. I have already made contact with them, and they helped to create this design." Pei Yanan reported truthfully.

"Okay, then once everything is arranged smoothly, we will work together to figure out how to earn energy points and exchange for more props. It's currently a holiday and the system hasn't released any tasks, so we can only buy them on our own."

"Yes!"

……

Zhang Peiyao cooked a large table of dishes. Pei Yanan was intimidated by He Chengan's busying around like the host. Yi Jie leaned close to her ear and said, "You didn't expect it, this guy is so smart. He has a lot of nice words to say and is very efficient. My mother treats him like her own son now."

"I really didn't expect that Major He has this side." Pei Yanan decided to take back what she said about him being a fool. Where in the military camp would she see him smiling and saying flattering words?

"Xiao Jie, I actually don't think I have to be adopted by your aunt. As long as I can live in your house and study together, it will be fine. I find that your aunt is a very kind person and she will definitely take care of me." Pei Yanan said in a low voice.

"Indeed, that's right. Don't worry, leave everything to me." Yi Jie assured confidently.

After Pei Yanan moved in, Yi Jie found her ideal fighting teacher, who was a female fighting champion in the army. Moreover, the two of them ate and slept together every day, so they could compete at any time, which was very convenient. Pei Yanan taught very attentively, and taught completely according to the military training method. Strengthening Yi Jie's self-protection was more useful than letting her and He Chengan protect her closely.

During the first class, He Chengan was also watching, and the two were really amazed by Yi Jie's immense strength. When they learned that it was the addition of the powerful potion produced by the system, they were envious. You know, they relied on hard physical training every day and broke through the limits of their bodies to reach their current level. In terms of pure strength, they were no match for Yi Jie.

However, fighting is more about moves and techniques, and skills are very important. This is how Teacher Pei Yanan was able to barely save his face.

In order to tap into Yi Jie's greatest potential, the two took turns spending two hours every day with Yi Jie doing physical training outdoors, including running with sandbags, dragging tires, doing pull-ups... They used a series of other methods on Yi Jie. They had not intended to be so strict, but Yi Jie insisted and never complained, so they did not let her off and were determined to train her hard.

The time for physical training is chosen at five in the morning. After training at seven o'clock, I go home and continue to learn fighting from Pei Yanan for two hours.

Over and over again, Yi Jie gradually adapted to this difficult life, and felt that the power hidden in her body was ready to be unleashed. They concealed it well and chose the right time, so the family didn't notice anything unusual.

In two weeks, Pei Yanan and He Chengan integrated perfectly into this small family. At Yi Jie's suggestion, they both recognized Zhang Peiyao as their godparent, and for this purpose they specially invited their grandparents and aunt's family to witness it.

"That's great. My younger sister has four children now. It's very lively." The aunt smiled brightly. She was happy for her younger sister. Having a large family is a good thing.

"Yes, our family has two more younger generations." Grandpa's face was flushed, and I didn't know whether he was happy or drunk.

Pei Yanan and He Chengan both felt warm in their hearts. They were both alone in this world, and suddenly they had the bond of family affection again. How could this not be a happy thing?

"Mom, I think Xiaonan should continue studying and shouldn't just waste his time working." While washing her face, Yi Jie pretended to mention this to her mother who was washing clothes.

"I've been thinking about this these past two days and was planning to mention it to her, but I'm afraid the child would feel embarrassed and refuse." Zhang Peiyao said with a worried face.

"I'll talk to her, she'll agree. She'll be in the same class with me. There's less than a month left in the summer vacation, and I'll give her tutoring. I'm sure she can keep up with the progress of our class." Yi Jie said confidently.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you." Zhang Peiyao said happily.

It was a done deal, and the rules were finalized within two or three days. Zhang Peiyao then turned around and helped Pei Yanan with the admission procedures.

As for what Yi Jie said about helping Pei Yanan with her lessons, it was not necessary at all. She had a solid foundation and as one of the best in the army, her memory was also quite good. She could pick up most of the knowledge by just flipping through the books for a few days.

Therefore, in addition to helping Yi Jie with her training, the two of them spent the past month thinking about how to earn energy points. They also thought of a lot of content for Yi Jie's Weibo account, but it can only be said that everyone has their own strengths, and they really have no talent for self-media.

After having their proposals rejected n times by Yi Jie, the two men, who had always been successful in the army, fell into deep self-doubt and began to spend every day on the Internet, cultivating what Yi Jie called the Internet sense, with an attitude of dying if they didn't succeed.

"Ding!" The task reminder sound that had not been heard for a long time appeared, and Yi Jie suddenly felt familiar.
