However, it wasn't long before Ye Ruge's anger flared up again. She bit her lip and said, "But Dad, you know I like Fu Yanlin. Remember how wonderful it was when we were introduced to each other and got to know each other? If everything had gone well, I might have married him and lived a happy life now. Why did Qiao Jin snatch away this honor and love? What's more, Qiao Jin isn't even from Kyoto. How could she marry a good man like Fu Yanlin?"

The jealousy and resentment revealed in his daughter's words finally made Ye Zongsi unable to bear it any longer and exploded: "Ye Ruge! Your words have gone too far! Using such derogatory words towards others is a very bad mentality. I hope you can restrain yourself. Otherwise, you should stay home and not go to work anymore. Learn how to be a little princess from your mother!"

"I won't do it. I'm going to marry into the team and live in the family compound. I'm going to fight Qiao Jin to the end in this life!"

Ye Ruge's voice was firm and resolute, as if nothing could shake her determination at the moment.

There was an unusual persistence in her eyes, as if she was declaring to the world her innate stubborn character.

Seeing Ye Ruge's stubborn expression, Commander-in-Chief Ye gritted his teeth in anger, his body trembling with anger.

"Ruge, you're really trying to piss me off to death!"

His tone was filled with uncontrollable anger, as if every word was burning a fire in his heart.

Afterwards, Commander-in-Chief Ye's eyes became even more stern. That sternness was not only due to his dissatisfaction with Ye Ruge's words and deeds, but also due to his complete disappointment in her overall attitude.

At this moment, the tense atmosphere between father and daughter almost made it difficult to breathe.

Ye Ruge turned to look at her father. Although there was not much fear in her eyes, there was also respect.

"Dad, isn't Fu Yanlin the only outstanding member of the team? You've been on the team for so many years. Don't the younger generations have to act according to your wishes? Besides, don't you think your daughter is also very outstanding?"

Her tone gradually softened, and she tried to use rational analysis to make Commander-in-Chief Ye understand that her position was not unfounded.

"Besides, Fu Yanlin is so successful now. Aren't you worried that he might surpass you in the future? After all, the entire company is discussing his potential, and some people even see him as their future successor. Dad, I don't think you'd want a junior to surpass you, would you?"

The last sentence clearly carries a hint of provocation, but on the other hand it also reflects Ye Ruge's concern for her family status and her determination to uphold the dignity of her elders.

Ye Ruge's words undoubtedly made the already angry Ye Zongsi even more depressed, but he couldn't find the right words to refute.

After a moment's silence, Commander Ye finally spoke, trying to suppress the turmoil in his heart. "Let me think about it, but Ruge, your current personality won't be popular with anyone you marry. It's time for you to learn to change. Living with your mother for all these years has made you too spoiled, and you don't act like an adult at all."

Although she nodded on the surface to show her agreement with her father's opinion, Ye Ruge's heart was still full of resentment and grievance, and she did not really accept this suggestion.

She felt that there was nothing wrong with her behavior, but rather that her parents did not understand and support her efforts to pursue happiness.

At the same time, shortly after the team announced its disbandment, Qiao Jin was still in extreme shock.

My superior actually personally nominated me to go to the provincial capital to receive an award, and I will also be awarded a glorious medal?

All of this seemed like a dream to Qiao Jin, and he could hardly believe that the facts before his eyes were real.

After standing there in a daze for a long time, Qiao Jin slowly recovered from her shock. At this moment, a familiar and gentle voice rang in her ears. It was Fu Yanlin's concerned words, "What's wrong? You still can't believe that you have received such a great honor? Your efforts have finally been recognized."

Looking at the other person's gentle face, she asked doubtfully: "Actually, I'm just surprised. I don't think I've done anything special."

There was a sense of confusion in her tone, as if she was still not used to the attention and praise.

Upon hearing this, Fu Yanlin smiled and replied, "You braved the difficulties and rescued those women from Congjia Village. Isn't that a merit?"

His words were full of encouragement and praise. Obviously, in his eyes, this behavior was a very brave and meaningful deed.

Qiao Jin blinked, looking a little lost and confused. "But later, when Jiang Wen was holding me hostage, you were the one who rescued me."

The implication is that one has not really solved the problem, but has instead caused trouble for others.

Fu Yanlin said gently, "That's not important. The key is that you deserve this award. Do you understand?"

When he said this, there was a hint of determination in his eyes, hoping that the girl in front of him would understand that her efforts were worthy of recognition.

After saying that, he reached out and patted her head gently, his movements gentle and caring.

Several teammates nearby immediately sighed, obviously curious and envious of the closeness between the two.

After hearing their companions' voices, they turned around to see what was going on. Those people immediately pretended to be calm and walked away, still jokingly saying, "Our captain's heart has finally melted. Shouldn't we try to find someone to date during our next vacation?"

"How can it be easy? The captain has good conditions and a stable partner. If it were the rest of us, after finding a girlfriend and starting a relationship, we might not see her for months or even lose her contact information. Not to mention whether the girl can wait, she might be kidnapped one day without us even realizing it."

Someone responded, with a tone that was both joking and a bit helpless.

If you choose to serve the country, you are destined to give up a lot of personal happiness.

Unless you really meet the girl who is willing to give everything for you and stay with you sincerely.

"The team has arranged some free time for everyone. We'll be leaving for the provincial capital in two days to handle a mission. Before that, would you like to go home and have dinner with us tonight?"

Fu Yanlin made a suggestion to Qiao Jin, and seemed to really hope that she would agree.

Given that she has now been officially adopted as a member of the Fu family, Qiao Jin naturally has no way of refusing Mr. Fu's personal invitation to visit his home.

Qiao Jin nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, but I have to take a detour to the Lin family to do something. It shouldn't take too long. You can go ahead."
