"You're just like your vixen mother, trying to seduce even your own brother-in-law." Jian Zhonglan was furious.

"Li Qiu treated you so well, staying up all night to knit you a sweater, and you still stole her man? Don't you have any shame?"

"Don't you even know your own limitations? A sparrow dreams of becoming a phoenix. The political commissar would never even look at you. You should take a good look at yourself in the mirror..."

Before coming to Beijing, Mao Chunqiao praised Lu Yujing for his good family background and handsome appearance, but Jian Zhonglan didn't quite believe it.

Jian Liqiu's appearance can only be described as pretty; if Lu Yujing were really that good, would he even be interested in her?

Upon meeting Lu Yujing in person, Jian Zhonglan felt that her mother's praise was somewhat conservative.

Putting aside his overall demeanor, his appearance alone is captivating.

Seeing that neither Old Madam Lu nor that regimental commander knew about Jian Liqiu and Lu Yujing, Jian Zhonglan's mind began to stir.

The relationship between Lu Yujing and Jian Liqiu has not been made public yet, and it is not yet a done deal.

She was just thinking of letting her daughter show her face...

Who knew that Jian Qingyi, that vixen, would beat her to it.

The perfect son-in-law she had chosen flew away.

How could this not infuriate Jian Zhonglan?

However, her words stunned the eldest branch of the Jian family, led by Jian Zhongkang.

Especially Jian Liqiu and Jian Yiwei, their minds were completely unable to process it.

What brother-in-law?

Jian Zhongkang and Wang Xiujuan looked at Jian Zhonglan, then turned to look at Jian Liqiu, wanting to hear what she had to say.

When did the political commissar start dating his own daughter?

How could they not know?!

“Jian Zhonglan, what nonsense are you spouting? When did my Yiyi ever… get involved with the political commissar?” Jian Zhongliang simply couldn’t bring himself to say the word “affair.”

What happened in the cafeteria just now can only be attributed to Old Mrs. Lu and Lu Yujing's mother mistaking someone for someone else; it has nothing to do with his Yiyi.

"Second brother, didn't you see what happened in the cafeteria just now? You were still defending her!" Jian Zhonglan said aggressively.

In that case, anyone who didn't know better would think that her sweetheart had been stolen away by Jian Qingyi.

"Aunt, what are you talking about? When did I and the political commissar..." Jian Liqiu was too embarrassed to finish her sentence.

The political commissar and her...

Who told her that?

She never even dared to dream about that.

"Liqiu, don't worry about it, your aunt will take care of this for you." Jian Zhonglan looked like she was about to do justice for heaven.

"You decide?" Jian Qingyi chuckled. "Jian Zhonglan, whose decisions can you make?"

"Can you really make decisions for your family's political commissar?"

"You brat, how dare you call my name..." Jian Zhonglan reached out to hit Jian Qingyi.

Jian Qingyi took a step back and hid directly behind Jian Zhongliang.

“What’s wrong with calling your name? Jian Zhonglan, Jian Zhonglan, Jian Zhonglan, Jian Zhonglan, can’t I call you that? I’ll call you that anyway…” Jian Qingyi hid behind Jian Zhongliang and made a face.

Jian Zhonglan was so angry she almost broke her nose.

"Second brother, look at her..."

"She's just a child, why are you arguing with a child?" Jian Zhongliang may not be good at anything else, but he's a master at smoothing things over.

"A child?" Jian Zhonglan's face twisted in pain. "What kind of child would seduce their own brother-in-law?"

"Hey! What's wrong? You didn't also take a fancy to that Lu Yujing, did you? What? Trying to snatch him back as your son-in-law?" Jian Qingyi glanced at He Xiaoyue, who was glaring at her resentfully, and laughed.

She noticed it when they were in the cafeteria.

It must be said that Lu Yujing's face is indeed quite alluring, especially with the added advantage of his status and position...

It's understandable that He Xiaoyue, a teenage girl, would be smitten.

"What nonsense are you spouting? My Xiaoyue is not as shameless as you..." Jian Zhonglan was so angry she felt like her lungs were about to explode.

If Jian Zhongliang hadn't been in front of her, Jian Zhonglan would have rushed up and dealt with Jian Qingyi long ago.

"You're the one who said you had a sense of shame, so don't regret it if I take you home to be my father's son-in-law." Jian Qingyi hid behind Jian Zhongliang and laughed smugly.

That provocative look of his was incredibly irritating.

"I heard that Lu Yujing's family is very rich, and they even have a nanny to help with cooking. Once I enter their home, I'll be a pampered young mistress who doesn't have to lift a finger."

At this point, Jian Qingyi patted Jian Zhongliang on the shoulder with a smug look on her face.

"Dad, once I've recruited Lu Yujing, I'll have him use his connections to transfer you to Beijing, so you won't end up like that unfortunate man, getting so old and being banished to some remote corner to feed mosquitoes."

He Wenyu, who prides himself on being a refined scholar, is almost losing control of his facial expressions at this moment.

Jian Zhonglan's face turned pale and then red with anger.

Seeing this, Jian Qingyi laughed even louder.

"Shut up!" Jian Zhongliang couldn't stand it anymore.

I started dreaming as soon as it got dark.

"Second brother, this is the child you're talking about..." Jian Zhonglan pointed at Jian Qingyi, trembling with anger.

Mao Chunqiao felt sorry for Jian Zhonglan and stepped forward to pat her back to help her catch her breath.

"Jian Zhongliang, you send this shameless brat back to me tomorrow morning." When Mao Chunqiao turned to look at Jian Qingyi, the disgust in her eyes was undisguised.

"Grandma, the political commissar and I have nothing..." Jian Liqiu was still explaining.

She really didn't know who spread the rumor.

She and the political commissar had never exchanged a single word in private...

“No, she can’t stay here either,” Mao Chunqiao said angrily.

That's a bit too domineering.

"What if I insist on staying here?" Jian Qingyi's face also turned cold.

Having lived two lifetimes, she had never met such a domineering person.

She doesn't really think she's the matriarch of the Jian family, does she?

"Mother, it would be unacceptable for Yiyi, as the younger sister, not to attend Yiwei's wedding." Jian Zhongliang started trying to smooth things over again.

“Zhongliang, you know Yiwei is getting married. You’re leaving this brat here, aren’t you just bringing shame to our Jian family? Don’t you think about yourself? Don’t you think about Yiwei…” When hard tactics didn’t work, Mao Chunqiao started using softer ones.

"Aren't you just afraid I'll steal your good daughter's perfect husband? I told you today, Lu Yujing, I'm going to have him. I'll go and tie him up tomorrow morning and make it a done deal for you." Jian Qingyi was really angry this time.

"Boom bang bang..."

Jian Yiwei, who was standing by the door, turned around and opened it.

"Political Commissar!" Jian Yiwei was stunned for a moment before quickly standing at attention and saluting.

Seeing this, Jian Liqiu, who was standing nearby, also saluted.

"Did I come at the wrong time?" Lu Yujing looked around at the people in the room.

"How could that be?" Jian Zhongliang, who was the first to react, forced a smile.

"Political Commissar, please have a seat!" Jian Zhonglan's dark face instantly broke into a smile.

"Lu Yujing, are you looking for a partner?" Jian Qingyi glanced at Jian Zhonglan, then turned to look at Lu Yujing, whose expression was indifferent and whose emotions were unreadable.

Jian Zhonglan's smile almost vanished.

Mao Chunqiao's face was even more horribly dark.

Only Jian Yiwei looked at Lu Yujing with a complicated expression, seemingly lost in thought.
