A stunning beauty arrived on the island; she invented everything from childcare to babysitting.

Song Wenyuan had considered asking his wife if she could give him "Xue Man" first. Once he got her consent, everything would proceed smoothly.

But what if his wife disagrees?

It's a fait accompli that the shameless old man has already stolen the items. If his wife disagrees, things will get even more complicated. It's better for him to take the blame himself. Given his wife's impression of him, even if her favorability towards him decreases slightly, it won't have a decisive impact.

Thinking of this, Song Wenyuan couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.

If his wife treats "Chen Hai" so well, would she still be able to maintain this relationship if she knew his true identity?

Coming to his senses, he realized he was actually a little jealous of himself.

An Ning had no idea what the person next to her was thinking, nor did she know if it was just her imagination, but Chen Hai's words today always seemed to carry a hint of green tea fragrance, especially that sentence just now.

Of course, the whole sentence doesn't actually have any special meaning. Perhaps she was influenced by the internet of later generations and always had preconceived notions about things.

An Ning didn't think much of the fact that the stun gun had gone around in circles and ended up in the hands of the military leaders.

She truly didn't expect that China didn't even have stun guns nowadays. After all, the technology involved in such a device is not very advanced; perhaps it's just that no one had thought of it.

Otherwise, given the capabilities of Chinese scientists, they would have been able to create this thing.

"Just give it away, you don't need it for the time being anyway."

As An Ning spoke, her gaze kept sweeping over Chen Hai's shoulder.

The other party initially claimed it was an accidental collision, but she felt it wasn't that simple.

From her observation, even after so much time, Chen Hai's injuries did not seem to have improved.

Considering her experience on the ship and the timing of Chen Hai's injury, An Ning suspected that he was injured while helping to capture spies, but she didn't say it for various reasons.

So she pretended not to know and gave this gift.

His wife's answer was the best of all the possibilities Song Wenyuan had envisioned, and his mood improved visibly.

Arriving at the stone table downstairs in the family building, Song Wenyuan's steps became very light: "Wait for me a moment, I'll go get the things."

Because he needed to work on the motor that afternoon, Song Wenyuan took down a stack of manuscript paper in addition to the materials in the box.

Anning had previously made assumptions about the power system, with a simplified drawing of both the internal combustion engine and the electric motor. However, if they were to start manufacturing, the previous drawings would not be usable and would need to be refined.

Anning noticed a drawn-on piece of paper among the drawings. She pulled it out and found it was a factory layout plan.

The dimensions on the map look familiar. Isn't this the size of the plot of land that the military just determined?

The news spread really fast. The matter was only settled yesterday, and Chen Hai has already drawn up a sketch today.

"You want this reward too?"

Song Wenyuan's eyes flickered, and he said guiltily, "As you know, our port has connections with many factories on both sides of the strait. I have visited many factories with the leaders before, so I also want to give it a try."

“Indeed.” An Ning nodded understandingly. “Five hundred yuan is more than half a year’s salary for you. Drawing doesn’t take much effort, and if it gets accepted, it’s like finding money on the street.”

If she weren't genuinely unfamiliar with these things, she would definitely have given it a try.

Seeing that his wife had no objections, Song Wenyuan smiled and then tentatively asked, "Actually, I'm more interested in that toy factory. If we can make this remote-controlled airplane we designed, we can sell the blueprints to the toy factory and maybe earn some foreign exchange. Once the toy factory is built, they will give priority to the families of military personnel. Would you like to work there then?"

“Me? I might just do what you said and only be responsible for drawing!” Anning said, “I’ll draw the pictures and then sell them to toy factories. That way I’ll have more free time and can spend more time with my child.”

“Indeed, Nier is at the age where she needs the company of her family. She is much more cheerful than before.”

An Ning smiled: "Of course I feel cheerful after leaving a bad place."

After saying this, Song Wenyuan wanted to slap himself twice. Although his wife continued the conversation on this topic, it was clearly very unfavorable to him.

Every time he brings it up, it deepens his wife's impression of him, and it will become a sharp knife to stab him when she reveals her identity later.

"If... I mean if, I were transferred to work in a toy factory, would you be happy?"

After a long while without receiving a reply from his wife, Song Wenyuan couldn't help but feel uneasy. He quietly looked up at her and saw that his wife had been watching him the whole time.

Like a child who had done something wrong, he immediately lowered his head.

"Are you serious?"

“I… just want to be closer to you,” Song Wenyuan stammered. “If it’s just two technicians from the factory talking, it’s less likely to cause any misunderstandings.”

He regretted it as soon as he said it.

I don't know what's wrong with him today, he just can't control his mouth.

He shouldn't have brought it up.

If his wife strongly resists this, and he insists on going to the toy factory, he will only deepen her resentment towards him.

He quickly tried to justify himself: "Of course, this matter may not be possible. After all, it's difficult for me to make such a transfer on my own."

He stopped talking after he finished speaking, and An Ning did not respond immediately.

Anning was scribbling aimlessly on the paper with her pencil, pondering the pros and cons of Chen Hai working at the toy factory.

To be honest, when Chen Hai said he wanted to be transferred to the toy factory, An Ning was angry for a moment because she felt that he was forcing her to make a choice.

Although she considered herself single and tacitly accepted her relationship with Chen Hai, her body had indeed obtained a marriage certificate with someone else and had a child.

Even though Song Wenyuan did not return, she and her child still received his care while in the military.

Before the formal divorce, she felt that her relationship with Chen Hai should not have taken that step.

But looking at Chen Hai, who looked anxious, she couldn't help but think of how Xiao Ni'er looked when she made a mistake. It wasn't that they were completely unrelated, but rather that they were exactly the same.

And the other person really wasn't the type to pressure her. If he went to the toy factory... well, after a moment of anger, she was actually a little looking forward to it.

However, this is only the site selection for the factory. Perhaps Song Wenyuan will have already returned by the time the factory is built?

Once she's divorced, she can work wherever she wants.

All the worries we have now are actually a waste of time.

She didn't refuse: "We'll talk about it later."
