Chapter 1228: It Seems I Judged a Noble Heart with a Petty Mind

After they went in, Chuxue let out a long sigh: "What a fuss this has caused."

Fu Yan Cheng patted her shoulder: "It's fine, it's not our fault. I've got everything covered."

As the two were talking, Fu Yan Cheng said: "Wife, Division Commander Guan and his wife have arrived."

Chuxue was about to stand up, but Fu Yan Cheng held her down: "They still have a bit of a walk before they get here; there's no rush to stand up just yet."

Hearing this man's words, Chuxue didn't know what to say; he was far too persistent.

But since he had said so much, she couldn't very well refuse his kindness.

Fu Yan Cheng then whispered: "Division Commander Guan's spouse works as an accountant at the military school. Having spent so much time at school, she tends to be a bit preachy. If she happens to say something you might not like later, please bear with it."

Seeing his cautious demeanor, Chuxue couldn't help but tease him: "I recall you telling me before that Division Commander Guan's spouse wanted to introduce her niece to you. Are you giving me a heads-up now because you're afraid this Lady might deliberately target you for not choosing her niece?"

Fu Yan Cheng saw her expression and knew she was saying it on purpose. He glanced around, raised his hand, and pinched her cheek: "Although Accountant Geng isn't a teacher, her character is beyond reproach. She won't deliberately make things difficult for anyone, so rest assured."

Chuxue looked up at him: "It seems I judged a noble heart with a petty mind."

Fu Yan Cheng dared not agree with that, so he quickly made amends: "My wife is beautiful and kind-hearted; she is certainly not that kind of person."

While the two were bantering, the others had already approached. Fu Yan Cheng reached out to help Chuxue to her feet and immediately saluted Division Commander Guan: "Division Commander, Lady."

Division Commander Guan had seen Chuxue before, but Lady Guan had not. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Fu Yan Cheng took Chuxue's hand: "Division Commander, Lady, this is my wife, Xiao Chuxue."

Chuxue smiled and nodded to both of them: "Hello. Thank you to the Division Commander and the Lady for taking time out of your busy schedules to come. Please, come inside."

Just as the Division Commander's wife, Geng Yanwen, was about to step inside, she stopped: "Isn't her surname Liu? How did it become Xiao?"

Fu Yan Cheng had already reported on Chuxue's surname situation, so Division Commander Guan naturally knew. He tugged his wife's sleeve: "There is naturally a reason for this. Whether her surname is Liu or Xiao, it is still the same person."

Before his wife could say anything more, Division Commander Guan smiled at Fu Yan Cheng: "Military matters are rarely discussed with family back home. You two carry on; I'll take her inside."

Once they were inside and seated, Yu Chunmei asked Geng Yanwen in a low voice: "What's the situation?"

Division Commander Guan had not wanted to explain, but seeing his wife's determined stance that he must speak, he briefly summarized: "Fu Yan Cheng's father-in-law was swapped as a child, so he has only just found his biological relatives. Naturally, he must now return to his ancestral home and claim his lineage."

Geng Yanwen looked at Chuxue, who was standing by the door with a radiant smile: "So that's how it is."

Speaking of her niece, she suddenly sighed: "I wonder when that child Chunmei will find her true match?"

Division Commander Guan patted his wife's hand: "Enough. You should worry more about our son's affairs instead. I don't know how many people you've introduced to her, but unfortunately, the families she liked didn't take a fancy to her, and the ones who liked her she didn't find appealing. What can be done?"

Geng Yanwen glared at her husband: "Chunmei has spent most of her childhood by my side; she's no different from my own daughter. Isn't it because you, as her uncle, haven't been paying attention? Young Fu is already married, so her matter can no longer be delayed. Later, you should immediately ask your old comrades for information and see if there are any suitable candidates for a blind date."
