MDMP Chapter 55.2

Lin Juan dared to say this because she had her own considerations.

First of all, she believed that Lu Rong, as the Deputy Chief of Staff of the army, would not tell others about the conversation between the two of them casually. After all, this matter was related to him, and he would lose face if he told others about it.

Secondly, the temptation to marry Lu Rong was too great, so Lin Juan couldn’t resist it.

As the saying goes, the bold will die of overeating, while the timid will die of starvation.

Just take the reform and opening up as an example. Weren’t those who got rich first the bold ones?

So, she had to be a little bolder. Just in case it worked!

Lu Rong: “…”

That’s it?! He felt a little speechless.

After all these twists and turns, didn’t it still end up with marriage?

Wasn’t it a fake marriage, not a marriage?

What kind of bad idea is this? In his opinion, this fake marriage was worse than a real marriage!

After all, getting married was not a joke. You needed to file a marriage report and get a marriage certificate.

Even if they said that it was a fake marriage now, if one of the other parties changed their mind after a few years, there would be some wrangling in the middle.

Besides, he didn’t have any reason to get married, so just let his mother urge him. Anyway, just pretend he didn’t hear it.

“Comrade Lin Juan, don’t mention this kind of thing again!” Lu Rong said with a serious face, “Today, I will pretend that I don’t hear it.”

Lin Juan: “Deputy Chief of Staff Lu…”

Wait, how was this different from what she imagined?!

“Okay, you don’t need to say anything more.” Lu Rong interrupted her, “If there is nothing else, I’ll leave first.”

Lu Rong felt that he had wasted these ten minutes in vain.

When the four eavesdroppers saw Lu Rong leaving, they also quietly withdrew.

Wang Yue was obviously still a little reluctant about the conversation that ended so early and said to Zhao Suisui, “Why did Uncle Lu leave? Also, why is Zhang Panpan’s mother so kind?”

“You silly girl, because she wants to be Brother Lu Zhou’s stepmother!” Zhao Susui said.

“Ah? Why?” Wang Yue was a little confused.

Zhao Suisui thought of Lin Juan as her stepmother in her previous life, and this time, she actually wanted to be Brother Lu Zhou’s stepmother, so she answered Wang Yue: “Maybe she just prefers to be someone else’s stepmother?”

Wang Yue nodded as if she understood.

Zhao Suisui thought of her own miserable experience again and felt that Brother Lu Zhou must not be as miserable as she was before, so she hugged his hand and said solemnly: “Don’t worry, Brother Lu Zhou. I will protect you!”

Lu Zhou: “…Yeah.”

The four children went home separately.

Lin Juan stood there for a while and felt that Lu Rong was indeed a person who did not play by the rules. Then, she turned around to go home.

She did not realize that the conversation she had just had with Lu Rong was heard by all four children.

***

When Wang Yue returned home, her mother was walking out angrily with a spatula in her hand.

As soon as she saw Wang Yue, Wang Yue’s mother scolded her: “You damn girl, where have you been again? I’ve called you to eat for a long time!”

Wang Tiedan in the room gloated and added fuel to the fire: “She must have gone out to play somewhere!”

Wang Yue shrank her head and glared at Wang Tiedan. She immediately washed her hands, ran to the dining table, and started eating as quietly as a chicken.

As she ate, Wang Yue saw that her mother’s anger had subsided. She rolled her eyes and recalled what she had just heard.

She said, “Mom, I’m telling you. Zhang Panpan’s mother wants to be Lu Zhou’s stepmother!”

After hearing this, Wang Yue’s mother raised her eyes and said, “Zhang Panpan’s mother? Lin Juan? What nonsense are you talking about, little kid!”

Wang Yue’s mother’s first reaction was to not believe it.

But, Wang Yue was immediately displeased by her mother’s denial. She put down her bowl, raised her chin, and said, “I’m not talking nonsense. I heard it with my own ears!”

Wang Yue’s mother became interested and felt that her daughter did not talk nonsense, so she asked, “Really? Can you tell me about it?”

“Yeah!” Wang Yue nodded, “Just now, I…”

Wang Yue told her mother what she had just heard.

But, she was still a child. Lin Juan said a lot to Lu Rong, but she didn’t understand it very well, so she talked about it in a jumbled way.

Fortunately, Wang Yue’s mother pieced together what she heard and understood it.
