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

Just as Li Wanqing was thinking about getting her daughter back, Cheng Chi was faster than her and picked up the little one.

"Nono, have you missed Grandpa Cheng?"

Li Wanqing: ...This overly familiar manner is just like her Nuonuo.

Nuonuo paused for a moment, then nodded politely, making Cheng Chi's face crinkle with laughter.

Cheng Chi held Nuonuo in his arms, carefully examining her features, and looked at his old friend with a slightly excited expression.

"Old Cao, you're right."

The child's features really resemble Shuzhen's; no wonder he felt an instant connection with him.

Li Wanqing was completely baffled. What kind of riddle were these two old men playing?

"What brings Chief Cheng and Elder Cao here?" Li Wanqing asked directly.

The two large Buddha statues at the entrance were quite imposing.

Cao Xuefeng glanced at the courtyard; it was spacious and tidy, clearly well-maintained.

"Won't you invite us in for a seat?" Cao Xuefeng said with a smile.

Li Wanqing felt a chill run down her spine; her bad premonition was growing stronger.

But for now, all she could do was open the door completely and then make a gesture of invitation.

"You two, please come in."

As Cheng Chi passed by, Li Wanqing reached out to pick up Nuonuo, but Cheng Chi sidestepped and carried Nuonuo into the yard.

Li Wanqing: ...I thought that was her daughter?

Seeing the lush green vegetable seedlings in the yard, Cheng Chi smiled happily, "This yard is well-maintained, much better than mine."

He lives alone and doesn't take care of the yard. It's completely bare except for a banyan tree.

Li Wanqing twitched the corner of her mouth. Oh well, she'd just take it as a compliment from the commander.

"Please sit for a while, I'll go get you some water."

She went into the kitchen and soon came out with two bowls of sweet soup, intending to bring her daughter back with her.

As a result, Chief Cheng refused to return it and even fed her the sugar water.

Not right, not right.

Chief Cheng had been quite nice to Nuonuo before, but not to this extent.

Seeing this, Cao Xuefeng was not surprised at all. If Cheng Chi hadn't been there, he would have wanted to take action himself.

After drinking the sugar water, Cao Xuefeng didn't linger any longer and directly stated his purpose.

Li Wanqing was speechless. Why would someone ask Cheng Baichuan about his family situation?

"Old Cao, I really can't help with this. I only married Cheng Baichuan two years ago."

“We had only met once before, and we didn’t know much about him or the Cheng family.”

"Instead of asking me, you should ask Cheng Baichuan directly."

Cheng Chi lowered his head in disappointment. When he had doubts back then, he had asked the same question.

However, it was all for naught.

"I heard you've severed ties with the Cheng family?" Cao Xuefeng asked. "What exactly happened?"

Li Wanqing naturally wouldn't cover up for the Cheng family, and recounted all the biased things the Cheng family had done, which made Cheng Chi furious.

"They don't treat Cheng Baichuan like family at all!"

Although he had only heard a little bit about it at the time, he didn't know that the Cheng family would be so cold-blooded and ruthless.

With their own child's life hanging by a thread, why would they care about a little bit of travel expenses!

“Who can argue with that?” Li Wanqing sighed. “Everyone in the brigade says that the Cheng family doesn’t treat Cheng Baichuan like their own child.”

“I heard that during the famine in 62, my mother-in-law even thought about selling Cheng Baichuan for money, but fortunately my father-in-law stopped her.”

Upon hearing this, Cheng Chi's heart skipped a beat. "Really?"

Li Wanqing nodded, "When my mother-in-law was beating and scolding me and Nuonuo before, she accidentally let it slip."

These words were not spoken by Liu Yufen herself, but rather by the gossipy women in the production brigade when she was working.

However, the original owner was timid at the time, didn't hear clearly, and never thought about it from another angle.

Now that Cheng Chi and the others have asked, there are some things she can't investigate, but Cheng Chi and the others can.

Cheng Chi and Cao Xuefeng exchanged a glance, their eyes both shining with hope.

"Comrade Li Wanqing, what else do you know?"

Li Wanqing shook her head. "I've been married into the Cheng family for two years, but the Cheng family has always been wary of me and never says much in front of me."

"Only when they were being beaten and scolded could you hear anything about Cheng Baichuan."

"So, I really don't know anything else."

"If the leader wants to ask, he can ask Cheng Baichuan directly."

Cheng Chi sighed; it seemed this was the only way things could be. He had asked Cheng Baichuan the same question before.

However, as a grown man, he certainly wouldn't speak ill of his parents, so asking wouldn't have made a difference.

"Comrade Li Wanqing, to tell you the truth, I suspect that Cheng Baichuan is not the Cheng family's biological child, but my child who has been separated from me for 28 years."

Li Wanqing paused, not expecting Cheng Chi to say it so directly.

"Is Chief Cheng mistaken?"

"I might believe it if you said Cheng Baichuan didn't look like a member of the Cheng family, but how can Chief Cheng be so sure that Cheng Baichuan is your son?"

"I don't have evidence for this yet, but it's highly likely."

Cheng Baichuan glanced at Cao Xuefeng, hoping to find out the relationship between Cheng Baichuan and Shuzhen or Xiao Qiu.

Even if it's to go to Heung Wan, he'll give it a try.

Li Wanqing didn't say anything more. Even though she was also suspicious, she had no evidence.

Saying too much will only make people think she has ulterior motives.

Although she hoped that Cheng Baichuan would have no further connection with the Cheng family, she never thought of trying to get close to Cheng Chi.

Cheng Chi and Cao Xuefeng sat for a while longer, chatting and playing with Nuonuo before leaving.

Nono looked at the red five-pointed star in her hand, then looked up at her mother with a puzzled expression.

[Mom, is this Grandpa Cheng really Dad's dad?]

"Isn't that my grandfather?"

Li Wanqing tapped her nose, "It's not certain yet, little one, don't go around saying things like that."

Nono looked at her mother with disdain. She wanted to say something, but unfortunately, the circumstances didn't allow it. She thought she should grow up a little more first.

[I can't believe I have such an amazing grandfather?]

Nuonuo smiled happily. In this life, she has a father, a mother, and now a grandfather who loves her dearly.

The events of her past life seem to be getting further and further away from her.

But... this grandfather doesn't seem to live long, does he?

"Mom~Mom~"

Nuonuo suddenly looked at Li Wanqing with a nervous expression, eager to speak, but unable to say anything, her face turning red.

Li Wanqing quickly patted her chest and said, "Nono, slow down. If something is wrong, just think about it."

Hearing this, Nono gradually calmed down.

[Mom, save Grandpa Cheng!]

Regardless of whether Grandpa Cheng was her grandfather or not, she didn't want Grandpa Cheng to die.

Li Wanqing: .......My dear daughter, you really overestimate your old lady.

If I had known, I wouldn't have asked that question.

Regardless of whether Cheng Chi is truly Cheng Baichuan's biological father, even if he is...

She knew nothing about her past life.

How to save?
