Chapter 236 The Xu Family’s Thoughts
"You're still pestering me, I'll beat you to death first!" Mo Ye was about to stand up and hit Lu Shaoang, but he dodged him easily.
"It's time to eat, it's time to eat!" Butler Zhang appeared in time and interrupted the two.
Mo Ye knew that he couldn't beat Lu Shaoang, so he glared at him fiercely and said, "For the sake of the baby, I will spare you first!"
At this time, the doorbell rang again, and Butler Zhang said excitedly: "I'll go open the door."
The house hasn’t been this lively for a long time. Only when the young lady comes back does it feel like home.
As soon as the door opened, Lin Jiangye rushed over impatiently, "Boss..."
Su Jinyi, who was being hugged tightly, looked at Mo Ye in confusion.
Mo Ye received the signal and immediately explained with his mouth: "Yes - Xiao Ye"
Li Cheng was relieved to see that Su Jinyi was safe and sound. He took a pair of slippers belonging to Xiaoye from the shoe cabinet and walked over.
"Yiyi, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?"
Li Cheng said as he pulled Xiao Ye off her, let him sit on his lap, and naturally put on slippers for him.
After changing, Lin Jiangye was about to pounce on Su Jinyi again but was pulled back by Li Cheng, "Yiyi hasn't recovered yet, you're very heavy."
"Oh..." Xiao Ye sat down with a bit of grievance, "You said I was very thin before..."
"It's not heavy for me to hold." Li Cheng said helplessly.
Ono felt a little better, but soon all his attention shifted to Su Jinyi.
"Boss, I heard that you fell off a cliff..." Xiao Ye was suddenly scared. "Mo Ye didn't tell us. By the time I knew about it, you had already returned to China. I flew back to find you immediately!"
"I'm fine now." Su Jinyi was touched by their concerned eyes. She was very glad to have such good friends.
Seeing Su Jinyi's somewhat cold attitude, Li Cheng's eyes darkened and he looked at Mo Ye and asked silently.
Mo Ye also knew that he couldn't hide this, so he had to be honest: "Baby doesn't remember us for the time being..."
"What? Did the boss lose his memory?" Ono said in shock as if struck by lightning.
Su Jinyi coughed lightly and said, "There are no other problems except this."
Xiao Ye didn't believe it: "Boss, you don't even remember me?"
Li Cheng came to the rescue: "Don't be embarrassed, Xiaoye. It's not too late to start remembering now."
Su Jinyi: "Well, I remember it now."
Li Cheng contacted a psychologist when he came. He said that amnesia caused by brain trauma like Su Jinyi's is not difficult to recover. As long as you wait patiently, a miracle may happen.
After they finished their meal, Xiao Ye and Mo Ye refused to leave no matter what they said, so Li Cheng at least stayed with Xiao Ye.
Lu Shaoang had to go to the military headquarters for urgent matters.
"Yi Yi, I need to go back to the military headquarters. I'll come to you when I'm done with things over there. Come to me if you have any questions, okay?"
Mo Ye stood at the door and looked at Lu Shaoang who was talking nonstop in a nagging manner in silence.
"I'm not saying anything bad, Master Lu, but how can the three of us, grown men, not be able to take good care of the baby? Can you please just leave?"
"That's right! I'll solve the boss' problems before they arise. I don't need you!"
Only when facing Lu Shaoang, Mo Ye and Xiao Ye would stand on the same front with full tacit understanding.
Li Cheng couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he tried to smooth things over, "Master Lu, the military's affairs are more important, you go and take care of them, we can take care of Yi Yi here."
Lu Shaoang responded and then left.
Military Department.
Seeing Lu Shaoang coming back, several people immediately stood up and saluted.
Captain Li checked him from top to bottom and was relieved to see that he was not injured.
"Shaoang, as long as you two are okay, I'll be relieved!" Captain Li asked excitedly, "How is Su Jinyi?"
"I have temporary amnesia, but everything else is fine."
"That's good! Lu Lin told me everything. You are such a willful kid..."
Captain Li felt heartbroken when he thought about the boy spending day and night searching for people on the seabed. Fortunately, both children were fine.
"The Yoton Military Academy sent us a message that Su Jinyi was the main contributor to this incident, and the academy has promoted her."
Lu Shaoang: "Well, I know this."
"Also..." Captain Li suddenly became a little sad. "We are all old. We need to pave the way for you two while we still have some power."
Lu Shaoang frowned: "What road are you paving?"
Captain Zhou said sternly, "You are now a major, you should get promoted while you are still young, otherwise you will be outshined in every way and won't be able to do things freely."
"You two are both great contributors to this matter, and you graduated from the Yodon Military Academy..." Captain Zhou continued, "We want to apply for you two to be marshals."
There are only four marshals in China. For many of them, the rank of major is considered the ceiling and they will not be promoted again for another thirty or forty years.
Moreover, even if you survive thirty or forty years, you will not be able to get promoted due to your age or other reasons.
Captain Zhou and Captain Li recognized the strength of the two and knew the rules very well. Lu Shaoang was backed by the entire Lu family, and Su Jinyi was also backed by the Jin family. Captain Li wanted to have a say in his power and wanted to support the two to the position of marshal.
The military top echelons have not seen any fresh blood in many years, which has caused them to hold great power but be timid.
What the country needs are talents like Su Jinyi and Lu Shaoang.
"Captain Li, I understand what you mean, but I recommend Su Jinyi to be the marshal."
He knew very well how difficult it was to share the marshal's power, but he wanted to put all his strength on Yi Yi and win a good future for her.
"No!" Captain Li immediately objected after hearing this: "I'm talking about you two! You must be promoted as soon as possible! No room for negotiation!"
Captain Zhou and Captain Li looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.
Other matters had to wait until Su Jinyi arrived to discuss, so Lu Shaoang had to leave.
"Old Zhou..." Captain Li looked at Lu Shaoang's back as he left from the window and said worriedly, "Do you think this will succeed?"
“I think it’s difficult…”
"Xu Qiao is about to hit us in the face with his abacus beads. I'm afraid he will use this to threaten Lu Shaoang. And according to Lu Shaoang's character, he would rather die than surrender."
Captain Li: "It's all Lu Shaoang's fault for saving Xu's granddaughter. He could have saved anyone else, but now he's in trouble, isn't he? He saved the beauty but ended up getting himself into trouble."
"Do you think only the granddaughter of the Xu family is targeting you?" Old Zhou said coldly.
Captain Li didn't react: "What do you mean?"
"Have you forgotten that there is a young boy in the Xu family?" Captain Zhou rolled his eyes at him.
"You mean Xu Beizhou?" Captain Li finally realized, "Why is that guy here to join in the fun?"
"Xu Beizhou has taken a fancy to Su Jinyi. He came to the military headquarters several times to inquire about her when you were away. He probably knew you were protective of her so he didn't dare to ask."
"This stinky boy!" Captain Li said angrily, "There is not a single good person in the Xu family. They just do such heartless things!"
Just as Lu Shaoang walked out of the military gate, a black car came towards him and stopped opposite him.
"Shaoang!" Xu Qiao waved excitedly, "Come on, I've been waiting for you for a while."
Lu Shaoang frowned slightly, but still walked over.
