Military husband hasn't returned home for two years? He reads his daughter's heartfelt wor

Li Wanqing's slightly embarrassed expression made Deng Hongmei laugh unkindly, "Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"

"However, it seems that Wang Xiumei has already left. At least she still has some self-awareness."

Liu Ximei is annoying, but she would never believe that Wang Xiumei didn't instigate this!

Li Wanqing was slightly taken aback; she hadn't expected Wang Xiumei to escape!

After all, he looked quite arrogant when he was pointing fingers at her before!

"Never mind, she's not important, the children are."

"Mommy~ Mommy~" Nuonuo, who was in Cheng Baichuan's arms, suddenly called out.

Following the direction she pointed, the adults realized that the performance on stage had already ended, and the announcer and the head of the performing arts troupe were already standing on the stage.

"Oh no, the results are about to be announced, and those little monkeys are still playing outside!"

In a hurry, Deng Hongmei rushed outside and returned with the children in no time.

As soon as the children saw Li Wanqing, they excitedly surrounded her.

"Auntie! Auntie! Did I do well just now?" Shao Xingguo took the lead and squeezed to the front.

Li Wanqing gave him a thumbs up, "Great!"

Shao Xingguo jumped up with joy and turned to look at the people behind him, "Dad, Mom, listen, Auntie says I'm great!"

Shao Wenzhao grinned and waved at his son, then looked at Cheng Baichuan with a smug expression.

"Old Cheng, don't you think my son is pretty good?"

Cheng Baichuan glanced at him indifferently, hugged his daughter slightly tighter, and moved the wheelchair a little further away with one hand.

Shao Wenzhao: ...I'm clearly being disliked!

Guo Chunxiang sighed and rubbed her forehead. She really didn't want to acknowledge this father and son who were so fond of showing off.

There were many children, and they all wanted to get close to Li Wanqing.

As the number of children increased, Li Wanqing kept backing away.

But the space was only so big, and she soon had nowhere to retreat, and her whole body seemed to have a slight tendency to fall backward.

"The children are all quiet..."

Li Wanqing shouted loudly, but the noise was too loud and there were too many people, so the children did not notice anything unusual about her.

Just when she was about to give up, a hand suddenly appeared behind her and supported her, allowing her to barely hold on.

"Alright! Everyone disperse!" Cheng Baichuan shouted with a stern face.

The children immediately fell silent, and none of them dared to approach Li Wanqing anymore.

Li Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief. "I know everyone is very excited, but the results will be announced soon. Let's line up with Aunt Deng first, okay?"

Deng Hongmei also stepped forward and called for the children to gather.

Li Wanqing looked at Cheng Baichuan and gave him a grateful smile, "Thanks to you just now!"

He then took Nuonuo out of his arms and said, "Let's go, let's go over there too."

Watching the backs of the two figures, one tall and one short, Cheng Baichuan's eyes darkened slightly, and he clenched his fist slightly, feeling the lingering warmth in his palm gradually spreading to his heart.

Xu Ren held the results of the selection in his hand. Although he had expected it, he still couldn't hide his excitement.

He picked up the microphone and asked loudly, "Comrades, was today's performance good?"

"Great!" the soldiers shouted in unison, their voices loud and powerful.

Xu Ren smiled, waved his hand, and continued to ask, "Were all the shows exciting?"

"Wonderful!"

The soldiers' voices grew even louder, instantly enlivening the atmosphere.

Li Wanqing looked on with admiration. If this were in her world, someone like Xu Ren would definitely be the number one host.

Xu Ren unfolded the list in his hand, as if to announce the results, but then closed it again.

"Different people have different tastes and preferences, but since we've decided to hold a competition, we definitely need to come up with a result."

Xu Ren waved the paper in his hand and asked, "The results are in my hands now. Does everyone want to know?"

The soldiers and their families below all shouted in unison, "Yes!"

Xu Ren tucked the paper away and grinned smugly. "I'm not going to tell you first."

A burst of laughter erupted from below, and Li Wanqing couldn't help but laugh as well, "I didn't expect Commander Xu to be so funny."

Cheng Baichuan glanced at Xu Ren, then at Li Wanqing, and asked with a wistful look, "You like his unserious nature?"

“That’s called being witty and humorous,” Li Wanqing retorted. “It’s the most basic spice in life. Wouldn’t you feel great if you had someone like that around you who could talk so well?”

Cheng Baichuan didn't know what a condiment was, but he knew that Xu Ren was in a bad mood.

"Commander Xu, even if you don't say it, we know that the Third Regiment of the First Division definitely won, right?"

"Of course! I never expected a group of kids to sing like that. I will never underestimate children again."

......

Everyone chimed in with their own comments, and even the family members in the residential area couldn't help but get excited.

The parents of the children who participated in the performance couldn't suppress the pride on their faces.

Xu Ren raised his hand to calm the atmosphere below, "Of course, the best things should be saved for last."

"Now we will announce the third prize winners of this performance. They are 'Red Star Guides Me to Battle' by the First Regiment of the Second Division and 'Azalea' by the Second Regiment of the Third Division."

As soon as Xu Ren finished speaking, applause erupted from below, especially from the soldiers and their families of the 1st Regiment of the 2nd Division and the 2nd Regiment of the 3rd Division.

After the soldiers and their families had finished their excitement, Xu Rencai continued to announce the two lists of winners of the second prize.

They are "Reunion" by the First Division, First Regiment and "Wishing My Loved Ones a Speedy Recovery" by the Second Division, Second Regiment.

When Liu Ximei heard that Wang Xiumei had not won the second or third prize, her face immediately darkened.

Do these people even know how to appreciate things?

Wang Xiumei came from a performing arts troupe, yet her program didn't win a single award!

People around her glanced at her and immediately moved away from her.

The families of the Second Division's First Regiment, in particular, have no liking for such family members who side with outsiders.

Just when everyone thought Xu Ren was about to announce the first prize winners, he changed his mind again.

"Besides the award-winning programs, other family programs were also very good, and the military region would give them certain rewards."

"A Youth League branch will collect and distribute them at that time."

"Commander Xu, stop keeping us in suspense and just announce the first place winner!"

The soldiers of the 3rd Regiment of the 1st Division shouted excitedly; it was so nerve-wracking!

Xu Ren chuckled, "What's the rush? The grand prize should be saved for last!"

Without further ado, Xu Ren called out the name of the Third Regiment of the First Division.

"Let's welcome the family members of the Third Regiment of the First Division to come up on stage and receive their honors."

Deng Hongmei was so excited she couldn't speak, so Li Wanqing organized the children to line up and go on stage.

"Children, don't be nervous. Hold your heads high and let everyone see the future of our First Division, Third Regiment."

The children, who were initially excited and nervous, immediately calmed down after hearing these words.

Twelve children strode confidently onto the stage, each one looking very energetic.

The award was presented by Cheng Chi, the military region commander. He had just received the certificate from Xu Ren when a voice of opposition came from the audience.

"I object! This is unfair!"
