Parents' Love: My Childhood Sweethearts with Jiang Weidong

"Remember to tell Lao Ding to let the film reel stay on the island for a few more days, preferably three days and three nights, so that everyone on the island can see it!" An Jie made an outrageous demand of Jiang Defu.

"You really dare to dream. Do you need me to get you a set so you can keep it at home and look at it every day?" Jiang Defu thought An Jie was being delusional.

Anjie thought he was serious and her eyes immediately lit up. "Really?"

"Of course not, do you think I'm the director of a movie theater?"

Anjie was deflated and couldn't help but complain, "We don't even have a movie theater here. Wang Shu made a movie, but I, as her mother, haven't even seen it yet!"

"Unlike Teacher Ge, who is now with Wang Zhenbiao, he drinks coffee, watches movies, and lives a very comfortable life."

Jiang Defu snorted, "What kind of friends do you have? They're always comparing themselves to these feudal, capitalist, and revisionist things."

Anjie pursed her lips, about to say something, when the phone rang again.

Upon answering the call, An Jie laughed and whispered to Jiang Defu through the microphone, "Speak of the devil, and he appears, Teacher Ge."

Jiang Defu flicked his newspaper and said angrily to her, "You bunch of scoundrels!"

An Jie pointed at him forcefully, then smiled and said into the microphone, "Hello? Teacher Ge, what made you think of calling me?"

On the other end, Teacher Ge's voice was cheerful, "I'm here to congratulate you! You know, Wang Shu made a movie, why didn't you tell me? It wasn't until yesterday when Lao Wang accompanied me to see the movie that I found out that one of my students was in it!"

Anjie smiled politely, "The child said she didn't want to make a fuss, so she didn't tell anyone. Now you know, don't you?"

"That's true. Wang Shu has always been low-key since she was a child. Let me tell you, she acted exceptionally well this time. My husband said that Wang Shu is now famous, and she might even win an award in the future!"

At this point, Ge Meixia suddenly sighed, "You and Commander Jiang are so lucky to have such a wonderful daughter-in-law by your side. My husband, Lao Wang, is so envious of Commander Jiang."

Anjie, ever the modest one, replied, "Not at all, Haiyang is great too. Didn't you say you got a girlfriend in college? You even praised her to me, saying she looks like a good girl."

Not long after Ge Meixia married Wang Zhenbiao, she approached An Jie to test the waters, saying that Wang Haiyang had taken a liking to Yafei and had asked An Jie to act as matchmaker.

An Jie was somewhat tempted after hearing this, since Wang Haiyang was now considered quite successful. However, Jiang Defu was very resistant. He couldn't stand Wang Haiyang at all, thinking he was as cunning as a honeycomb. Jiang Defu was afraid that his daughter would suffer.

Finally, seeing that Yafei herself was also unwilling, Anjie politely declined Ge Meixia's offer. This seemed to have offended her, and the two did not contact each other for a long time.

Later, Wang Haiyang found another woman in college. He heard that her family had a very good background, and Wang Zhenbiao was very satisfied.

Ge Meixia then called An Jie and praised the girl, saying that she and Wang Haiyang were a perfect match, a match made in heaven.

Anjie was sullen for several days after hearing this. She always felt that Ge Meixia was doing it on purpose, just because Yafei hadn't agreed to Wang Haiyang's request.

"The two broke up. The girl was able to study abroad, so she broke up with Haiyang. Now Haiyang is also making a fuss about going abroad, which is really worrying Lao Wang."

After hearing Ge Meixia's words, An Jie finally understood. She couldn't help but smile. Let them be smug. Now they've come up with nothing.

“It’s just that the two of them weren’t meant to be. Haiyang will find someone better in the future,” Anjie comforted her, though his words didn’t reflect his true feelings.

“Actually, I’m afraid that Wei Dong will follow in Hai Yang’s footsteps.” Ge Meixia changed the subject, bringing up Jiang Wei Dong.

An Jie's lips immediately drooped. "What do you mean by that?"

“Look at Wang Shu, she’s getting better and better. She’ll see more of the world in the future, so aren’t you afraid of her…” Ge Meixia didn’t say it all, leaving An Jie to imagine.

Anger surged within An Jie. "Are you saying that Wang Shu will become a Chen Shimei (a notorious figure in Chinese folklore known for abandoning his wife)?"

Ge Meixia could tell she was angry, so she quickly spat twice and said, "Look at me, I was just talking nonsense. Wang Shu isn't that kind of person. Just pretend I didn't say anything today."

After saying that, Ge Meixia hung up the phone in a hurry, making An Jie so angry that she clutched her chest and gasped for breath. "That Ge Meixia, she really can't stand to see others doing well, and she comes to annoy me at a time like this!"

Jiang Defu had gone out to find some peace and quiet because he was too lazy to listen to An Jie's conversation with Ge Meixia. Now that he saw An Jie so angry, he assumed that Ge Meixia was showing off in front of her again.

Jiang Defu quickly comforted her, "Don't be angry, I'll find someone to take care of it right away so you can see the movie as soon as possible, okay?"

“I’m not angry about this!” An Jie angrily told Jiang Defu everything Ge Meixia had said to instigate trouble.

"Isn't she despicable? Her stepson got dumped by his girlfriend, so she comes here to slander my Wangshu." Anjie slammed her hand on the sofa in anger.

Jiang Defu didn't seem angry at all. Instead, he laughed and said, "She's just being sarcastic and envious of you. If you get angry because of her words, that would be exactly what she wants."

An Jie thought about it and agreed. "Let's wait and see. When Wei Dong and Wang Shu get married, I'll call her specifically to inform her, but I won't invite her!"

Jiang Defu nodded, "That kind of person, if you're doing well, she'll be miserable."

“However,” Jiang Defu said with a smile, looking at An Jie, “aren’t you afraid that Wang Shu might actually dump Wei Dong one day?”

An Jie snorted, "Putting aside the fact that Wang Shu isn't that kind of person, even if that day really comes, Wang Shu will still be my daughter. The one who should be afraid is your son."

Jiang Weidong was indeed a little scared. When he noticed that many of his classmates were talking about Xiuxiu, he suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

Upon further reflection, Jiang Weidong realized that he had indeed neglected Wang Shu recently, as he was busy with his studies and the two of them only saw each other a few times a year.

Jiang Weidong slapped his forehead in frustration. What would be the point of all his hard work if he graduated early and found out his wife had been stolen away?

Although he believed in their relationship, as the saying goes, it's not the thief you should be afraid of, but the one who has his eye on you!

Lin Wangshu from the school received a call from Jiang Weidong after a long time. She was overjoyed to learn that he wanted to invite her to a movie.

Because she has recently become somewhat famous and can be recognized wherever she goes, Lin Wangshu tries to stay at home as much as possible.

But because it was Jiang Weidong who invited her, Lin Wangshu hummed a song and spent a long time getting ready before going out.

As a result, when Lin Wangshu saw Jiang Weidong at the movie theater entrance, she ran over to him with light steps.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Weidong didn't even glance at her and ignored her, clearly not recognizing her.
