Quick Transmigration: The Green Tea Mistress's Guide to Seduction - A Master's Handbook

Nie Shenyuan had previously experienced the feeling of Xie Qingyu accidentally rolling into his arms in the middle of the night while sleeping, her soft, small body curled up in his arms.

The feeling made him smile whenever he thought about it.

Now that he can hold Xie Qingyu while she sleeps, he feels that this is almost too much happiness.

Seeing that Nie Shenyuan was really just holding her while she slept, Xie Qingyu didn't struggle.

Neither of them uttered a sound, only a faint air of ambiguity lingered, making one's heart pound.

Xie Qingyu couldn't stand the heat emanating from her body and the sound of her heartbeat, so she took the initiative to roll out.

Although it was dark and he couldn't see, he could still sense the resentment in Nie Shenyuan's eyes.

"It's too hot, let's sleep separately," Xie Qingyu said softly.

She left those words behind and fell into a deep sleep, leaving Nie Shenyuan to fetch a ladle of cold water after she was asleep before he finally fell asleep himself.

As the weather gets warmer, Xie Qingyu wakes up earlier.

When she woke up today, Nie Shenyuan was still there.

Seeing Xie Qingyu sit up, he came over. After what happened yesterday, he seemed to have become very familiar with her. He came over and helped her put on her shoes.

"Still not leaving?"

"There's still some time. I've cooked dinner for you in the pot."

"I don't want to drink porridge."

Nie Shenyuan smiled. Xie Qingyu's picky eating at this moment gave him a sense of security, like being treated as family.

"I didn't make porridge. It's hot, so I made some mung bean water." Nie Shenyuan had thought of this in the morning. The weather here suddenly became hot. It didn't feel particularly sunny a few days ago, but now it feels like it's being roasted in the morning.

"Okay, it's so hot, don't come back at noon. Tuanzi and I will just eat something simple at home. You can bring dinner back in the evening." Xie Qingyu glanced outside.

It's only seven in the morning, but the sun is already shining right outside the door; it looks so hot.

“How can we make do with lunch? It’s no trouble for me to bring it back from the cafeteria.” Nie Shenyuan disagreed.

"It's too hot and I don't have much of an appetite at noon. There are vegetables at home, so I can cook something even if I'm hungry. You don't need to run back and forth, or you'll get sunburned." Xie Qingyu glanced at Nie Shenyuan's face.

Nie Shenyuan can no longer be considered innocent.

It should be said that the skin tones of people in the military are all similar; their skin is not fair due to wind and sun exposure, but their even skin tone looks quite pleasing to the eye.

Xie Qingyu's last sentence successfully dissuaded him from his idea: "Then you guys will have to make do for today. I'll bring back more things when I come back tonight."

“Okay, you can rest for lunch too,” Xie Qingyu readily agreed.

Nie Shenyuan didn't expect that even if Xie Qingyu asked him to come back today, he wouldn't be able to return at noon.

He never expected that the leaders of the cultural troupe could have anything to do with him.

When he was notified to come and see the leader, he didn't know who he would meet. If the regimental commander hadn't relayed the message to him, he would have thought he had gone to the wrong place.

"Are you Nie Shenyuan?" someone asked as soon as Nie Shenyuan entered the room.

Nie Shenyuan saluted, "Yes."

"Okay, don't be nervous, sit down first. I didn't come to see you today for anything important, I just wanted to meet you. How old are you this year?" The man pointed to a chair for Nie Shenyuan to sit down and then asked.

“28,” Xie Qingyu replied.

The two leaders in the room were both female leaders of the performing arts troupe. Nie Shenyuan did not sit down. Although they were leaders, they were not in the same system and could not be commanded. Nie Shenyuan thought of the scene Xie Qingyu showed him yesterday, which should be these two.

Nie Shenyuan's refusal to sit down clearly indicated a degree of wariness, which was obvious at a glance.

However, this person clearly didn't take it seriously.

"You look quite tall. Are your parents tall?" she asked.

“Yes, follow the root.” Nie Shenyuan said matter-of-factly.

"Who else is in your family? Are your parents deceased?" she asked again, striking a pose as if she were concerned about the well-being of one of her soldiers.

Unfortunately, Nie Shenyuan was not one of her soldiers and didn't fall for her tricks.

“If you want to check my background, the team has my information,” Nie Shenyuan said directly.

"That's not what I meant." She smiled, her scrutiny of Nie Shenyuan lessening, and her expression softening.

"There's no doubt about the ingredients in your product; I'm just concerned about it."

This leader looked to be around forty years old. She was slender and elegant, and always spoke in a soft, gentle voice, but it always made people feel uncomfortable.

That kind of scrutinizing gaze, like you're appraising goods.

"If there's nothing else important, I'll head back now." Only then did Nie Shenyuan understand the unease on the commander's face when he summoned him earlier.

"No rush, let me introduce myself first. I am Jia Ting, the head of the cultural troupe. You may not know me, but you should have heard of me."

"Hello, leader." Nie Shenyuan's attitude wasn't very friendly.

In terms of official rank, she was indeed of a high rank, but this system didn't work here, and she had no right to command Nie Shenyuan.

"So, what brings you here, leader?" Nie Shenyuan asked. "I probably can't do anything for the performing arts troupe. If it's about the previous performance, I should have already refused back then. I wonder what brings you here today?"

Nie Shenyuan didn't want to beat around the bush with her.

She coughed lightly, and the person next to her stood up. "Deputy Commander Nie, don't rush. She has something to tell you. You two can talk alone."

After the other person left, Commander Jia spoke up, "Let me reintroduce myself. I am Yu Lingling's mother."

Even now, Nie Shenyuan still doesn't understand why she came to him.

"Commander Jia," Nie Shenyuan took a deep breath, "If you're here because of Yu Lingling, then I don't think it's necessary. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."

“Nie Shenyuan, you’ve been here for quite a while now. If I remember correctly, your current regiment commander joined in the same year as you. Don’t you want to know why he was able to become the regiment commander while you are only the deputy commander? It will take you more than ten years to get rid of that one word difference, and by then he won’t be in that position anymore.”

"The regimental commander deserves his current position; his performance on the battlefield is sufficient to support his post."

"Isn't your performance worthwhile? You were probably even better than him back then, weren't you?" Commander Jia spoke with a hypocritical, persuasive tone, as if his words were the absolute truth.

Nie Shenyuan's gaze had clearly changed. He looked Jia up and down and said, "I wonder what Jia means by telling me all this..."

Nie Shenyuan's change seemed to be within Commander Jia's expectations. She narrowed her eyes and said, "It must have been quite an achievement for someone from the countryside like you to get to where you are now, right?"

Nie Shenyuan's pupils contracted; Xie Qingyu had said something similar just last night.

Nie Shenyuan was so moved when Xie Qingyu said it back then, but now he feels disgusted when he hears Commander Jia say it.

Nie Shenyuan didn't speak, and Commander Jia didn't seem to expect him to speak either, even feeling that his words had touched a nerve with Nie Shenyuan.

"Sometimes it's better to have a strong backer. Wouldn't it be foolish not to take the shortcut?" Commander Jia asked.

Despite her seemingly excellent demeanor due to long-term exercise, the way she turned her head to look at Nie Shenyuan at this moment only exuded a sense of oppression.

"I don't understand what you mean, a shortcut?" Nie Shenyuan looked intently at Commander Jia.

"You know that Lingling likes you, right? Because of my health, she's my only daughter. She's the only one I have in my life. She's the only one my father and I have." Commander Jia made it very clear.

"It seems she has taken over your position and joined the performing arts troupe," Nie Shenyuan said.

"I paved the way for her to join the cultural troupe, but it's a pity she's a girl. If she were a son, her father could have helped even more." Commander Jia shook his head, pretending to be serious.

"You know the saying 'a son-in-law is half a son,' right?" Commander Jia asked.

"Oh, you probably don't know who her father is. You met him yesterday when he came."

Nie Shenyuan's gaze narrowed. Yesterday, only the leaders from above and those with the surname 'Yu' came, which made it quite obvious.

No wonder she was so confident; if it were that person... then it would be understandable.

“Lingling is usually low-key, and we don’t let her talk about this, but I’ll say it to you now.” Commander Jia said confidently.

“If it weren’t for my absolute disagreement, it would be fine if you were just a divorced person, but who knew you had a child.” She frowned as she spoke, clearly very dissatisfied with this point.

"But there's nothing I can do if Lingling likes it. I've also checked. Although you've been married for several years, your marriage certificate was issued on short notice when you joined the army. You didn't want it to be yours. Your wife is of no help to you. You should know what to choose, right?" Commander Jia seemed to think he had Nie Shenyuan under his control.

"I don't understand. Please explain in detail. My wife is right here. How... how could she..." Nie Shenyuan shook his head.

"If she's sensible, you should publish a divorce notice in the newspaper and let her take the child back to her hometown. You can just send her some money back every now and then," Commander Jia said, waving his hand.

“This is already more than enough. You give her money every month, and she doesn’t need much in the countryside. It’s so nice for her to live a life where someone supports her. Just pretend this never happened.”

"I really appreciate your kindness, but I don't need it. My wife came all the way to see me and gave birth to my son. How could I be such a heartless person? Besides, I've already rejected your daughter several times before. Considering that girls are shy, I always had the instructor relay the message. I don't know if she told you. I don't like her, and I would never abandon my wife and child. Commander Jia, you've come to the wrong person today." Nie Shenyuan's voice was sarcastic.

"I don't know how you came up with such an idea."
