Parents' Love: My Childhood Sweethearts with Jiang Weidong

Lin Wangshu, who was struggling to peel chestnuts, looked up at him suspiciously upon hearing this. "Why did you suddenly think of asking me this? Is it related to your job assignment after graduation?"

Jiang Weidong was stunned for a moment. Seeing this, Lin Wangshu thought she had guessed correctly and said anxiously, "This concerns your future. Don't give up a better opportunity for me."

"No, what are you thinking? I can't make decisions about assignments. I was just asking casually."

Jiang Weidong hadn't expected her to think so quickly, so he quickly masked his expression and explained with a smile.

Lin Wangshu was half-believing and half-doubting. She slowly chewed the sweet chestnut meat, pondered for a while, and said, "I can live anywhere. As long as my parents and you are there, that's my home."

Her answer was impeccable. After hearing it, Jiang Weidong lowered his eyelashes, seemed to be deep in thought, and murmured softly, "I understand."

Lin Wangshu didn't hear her. She tilted her head and smiled at Jiang Weidong, her eyes full of teasing. "Future General Jiang, what brings you to see me today? I haven't seen you in so long. I thought you had forgotten about me."

Jiang Weidong chuckled, instinctively reaching for her braid, but looking at her flowing curls, he stopped, rubbing his fingers fondly. "My little moon is so beautiful, of course I'm afraid you'll be kidnapped."

"I thought you only cared about the throne and not the beauty," Lin Wangshu said with a hint of resentment.

"Then you've misjudged me." Jiang Weidong laughed, then looked at Lin Wangshu with a guilty expression. "I've neglected you lately, but it'll be over soon."

Seeing Lin Wangshu looking at him with a puzzled expression, Jiang Weidong smiled but said nothing, and simply took the chestnuts from her hand and peeled them for her.

In fact, Jiang Weidong did not understand his father when he was a child. Jiang Defu had been stuck on a small island for so many years without getting a promotion because of An Jie's status as a capitalist's daughter. But he never complained. On the contrary, he was happy with it and doted on An Jie for decades.

Jiang Weidong found it even more unbelievable when he learned that Jiang Defu had preferred to give up his military status in order to marry An Jie.

Jiang Weidong, who was just a little boy back then and in his rebellious teenage years, didn't care about such things. He thought women would only slow down his sword-drawing speed, and he would never give up his future for anyone.

But as it turns out, he didn't know back then that he would grow up to be the person he looked down on the most.

"Sir, I've made up my mind. I still want to go to Qingdao."

In the office, Jiang Weidong stood at attention, telling the middle-aged man in front of him his decision.

The man raised an eyebrow in surprise. "Are you sure? With your grades, you could have a much brighter future."

“Yes, but I don’t want to trade the person I love for her.” Jiang Weidong’s expression was firm, showing no hesitation whatsoever.

“You can still marry her. I don’t mean to object to your marriage.” The man didn’t expect him to reject him for this reason, so he patiently explained.

Jiang Weidong pursed his lips. "But she can't be an actress anymore."

"Of course, the place you're going to is highly confidential. As your partner, she certainly can't continue to be in the public eye. In fact, she's already a bit too famous, but it's not too much of a problem."

Seeing Jiang Weidong still frowning and looking troubled, the man seemed to understand something. "Is she unwilling to sacrifice for you? Then why are you doing this?"

Jiang Weidong, not wanting others to misunderstand Lin Wangshu, immediately retorted, "No, I didn't tell her any of that. It's because I didn't want her to sacrifice for me. She really likes acting, I can tell."

The man looked at him and chuckled, "You really are your father's son. You're willing to give up your future for a woman."

Seeing Jiang Weidong's surprised expression, the man said leisurely, "What? You're a promising talent we've taken a liking to, so of course I have to investigate your family."

Jiang Weidong shook his head and said seriously, "I have not given up my future, and Wang Shu is not just a woman."

An Jie felt guilty for half her life because she had delayed Jiang Defu's progress. Jiang Weidong didn't want Lin Wangshu to bear the same blame, even if she didn't know it.

The man laughed as if he had heard a joke. "You're not even as good as your father. I can tell you, you've given up a brighter future than him, and all of this could have been avoided if your Xiuxiu had wanted to."

"I think you can tell her the truth, and she might agree."

Jiang Weidong remained silent, but his determined gaze showed that he had not changed his mind.

"Alright." The man looked at him meaningfully. "I hope you won't regret it later. Go out, just pretend you've never met me, and forget all of this."

Jiang Weidong gave him a military salute, then turned and walked out of the office without hesitation.

After he left, the man in the office sighed regretfully. Jiang Weidong was very talented and hardworking, completing his studies in just two years. This was exactly the kind of talent he wanted, but alas…

Thinking about the results of his investigation, the man had an incredulous expression on his face. Are all the men in the Jiang family this infatuated?

Jiang Defu goes without saying; he was a hero who had been on the battlefield, and for An Jie's sake, he was willing to stay on Songshan Island for the rest of his life as her commander.

Jiang Weidong had just rejected him because of Lin Wangshu, who played "Xiuxiu".

The youngest son, Jiang Weimin, is a good-for-nothing son born of a tiger father. He's a fool who can only escape his fate of being sent to the countryside because of his older sister. Now, for a woman named Mingxu, he's actually willing to hold his books and take the college entrance exam.

Of the four men in the family, only Jiang Weiguo seems to be somewhat normal; none of them are currently obsessed with women.

The man reasonably suspected that there might be something wrong with the Jiang family's ancestral graves, otherwise Jiang Weiguo wouldn't be the only one with a clear mind.

Jiang Weidong emerged from the office feeling relaxed. As long as he could still serve in the army and shed his blood for his country, he had nothing to regret.

Jiang Weidong thought of Lin Wangshu's Xiuxiu on the screen. So many people liked her, how could he deprive her of the right to act in the future?

Because Jiang Weidong made the decision, the transfer order came down quickly, and as he wished, he was to become a battalion commander at the Qingdao Air Force Base.
