Ancestors, I told you to seduce the villains, not to turn evil.

Xu Manman was speechless.

What does it mean to listen to her?

Is there anyone who treats their wife this badly?

Xu Manman thought this solution was terrible, but Gu Xingbang and Yang Ping thought it was a great solution.

They spoke at the same time.

"Yes, listen to Manman. Tell me, who do you want to be with?"

Xu Manman gave a dry laugh. Why are they starting to take sides now?

"Actually, that set of data wasn't mine; I saw it in a book."

Yang Ping's eyes widened immediately: "Where's the book?"

Xu Manman silently tossed the pot away: "My stepmother set it on fire and burned it."

She didn't lie.

Ever since her biological father married her stepmother, he has treated her badly. Xu Manman loved reading when she was little.

But her stepmother scolded her when she saw this, saying, "You lowly girl, you were born to be someone's servant. With your looks, studying is a waste. Instead of wasting money, you should do more work and help out the family."

Not only that, whenever her stepmother saw her reading or writing, she would snatch the things away without saying a word and throw them into the stove pit.

In front of Xu Manman, it was burned to ashes.

After that, she never dared to touch those things again.

When she encountered educated educated youth, she thought these people were amazing, and even developed a liking for Wang Wenqing, simply because she felt that they had accomplished things that she could not.

Do you really like the other person that much?

nor.

It just so happens that he was a scholar, fulfilling the original owner's dream. On the other hand, Xu Manman, who lacked love since childhood, felt warmth from him.

At this moment, Xu Manman sighed, feeling angry at their lack of ambition and saddened by their misfortune, but living in such a family was her tragedy.

However, the original owner was a person from this era, and his/her mindset may have been deeply ingrained.

Reporting Fei Huainan for speculation and profiteering seems to be the right thing to do.

Xu Manman was trying to find an unassailable reason, but she ended up making Yang Ping so angry that he almost fainted.

Xu Manman's stepmother's behavior was even more shameless than Gu Xingbang's, and it angered him even more.

There might be a lot more in that book, a lot of content worth studying.

Moreover, he was certain that the author of this book was an absolute scientific genius.

Seeing that the other person was really about to faint, Xu Manman quickly spoke up.

"Actually, I still remember those data, and I can write them down, but I really can't help with the research."

She really knows absolutely nothing!

Yang Ping was about to faint, but after hearing Xu Manman's words, he felt better.

"Okay, then come back to the research institute with me."

This time, Gu Xingbang didn't stop him, but warned Yang Ping: "When you're done, bring the person back to me right away."

Since Xu Manman doesn't have that kind of talent, and the data was written by someone else, he's not worried about Yang Ping stealing her from him.

He immediately regained his superior demeanor.

Yang Ping rolled his eyes; this guy was a natural at pretending.

However, he didn't have time to argue with Gu Xingbang right now; he had more important things to do.

Xu Manman had no choice; it seemed she really had to make this trip.

Fei Huainan did not go with them. Gu Xingbang kept him behind and talked about the benefits that Wei Yunfan and others had gained from surviving in the border wilderness for half a month.

These people were clearly more adept at it, and Gu Xingbang finally found a spot that was perfect for training.

Incidentally, I also want to organize an all-army elite soldier competition.

The main purpose of this competition is to train elite soldiers from various local military regions.

These people are incredibly arrogant; they think they're all that great.

Let's send the Flying Eagles over there and teach them a lesson for their arrogance.

Gu Xingbang brought out the entire business plan.

Fei Huainan glanced at it.

The environment is decent, but ordinary; there's not much training intensity for the Flying Eagles team.

Besides, playing with some rookies does train them, but it doesn't benefit the Flying Eagles.

He refused.

Gu Xingbang laughed in exasperation: "Just think of it as a way to stretch your muscles."

Fei Huainan seized the opportunity to make a request: "As the leaders know, we have a lot of training on a regular basis, and military funds have always been quite tight."

Gu Xingbang's face darkened.

Just as he was about to refuse, Fei Huainan seized the opportunity to speak.

"Actually, we don't have to pay for this ourselves."

"These teams want to learn, right? And if there are any who are not satisfied, we can make them pay tuition. If they don't want to pay tuition, we can make a bet."

"The money we receive will be used as funding for the Flying Eagles' mission this time."

Gu Xingbang's eyes lit up: "Good lad, it has to be you."

"Alright, let's go back to training!"

Fei Huainan is gone.

He went to the Flying Eagles.

The news of his meritorious service spread again, and this time, no one made any sarcastic remarks.

After all, today is different from the past.

When Fei Huainan was the regimental commander, everyone could surpass him if they worked hard.

The division commander was alright; after all, such a difficult task couldn't be completed every time, and it wasn't something that happened often.

Now he's a deputy army commander and has also made meritorious contributions. Not only that, Xu Manman also received a first-class merit.

Now, they're not to be trifled with.

After all, a regimental commander can work hard, a division commander can also do it with a little more effort, but a corps commander is already extremely rare.

Even if they drink oil every day, they still can't catch up.

Now that he has made another contribution, his position might be reassigned.

They knew perfectly well that Fei Huainan had just been promoted and would definitely not make any moves in the short term.

But this would be impossible for anyone else, and who knows what would happen to Fei Huainan!

Who knows, they might get promoted sometime soon.

Those families who had previously introduced him to potential partners couldn't help but regret their actions.

Why didn't I just persevere back then!

Others might feel regret and sigh, but Chang Yongting's regret was a heart-wrenching, unbearable pain.

Because back then, she was the one closest to Fei Huainan, the kind of person you could reach out and grab.

She thought that Fei Huainan had injured his leg and would never be able to serve in the army again.

She felt that marrying Fei Huainan would mean living a hard life in the countryside, so she refused.

Others didn't have a chance at all, but she had a chance and didn't seize it, so naturally she felt bad.

Chang Yongting listened to the surrounding whispers and felt completely lost and disoriented.

Lin Yarong frowned as she looked at Chang Yongting.

This sister-in-law is usually spoiled and arrogant, so why has she been able to tolerate her all this time?

It was because Chang Yongrui said that his younger sister was beautiful and would definitely be able to find an excellent partner in the future.

That way, I can also help my family.

She's being nice to Chang Yongting now, which is all out of kindness towards her own sister.

Will she forget her brother and sister-in-law when she becomes successful?

Lin Yarong thought it made perfect sense, so she tried her best to be good to Chang Yongting.

That's why, after she learned that Fei Huainan had returned, she wanted to bring the two of them together.

Now, there's little hope for Fei Huainan.

After all, everyone in the military region knows that Captain Fei and Xu Manman have a very good relationship, and everyone in the military region calls her "little sister-in-law".

This young lady is different from the usual way of calling them "sister-in-law".

Normally, I call them "sister-in-law" as a polite way of addressing them.

But Xu Manman's sister-in-law, that represents respect, not because of Captain Fei, but because of herself.
