Luo Ye stepped into office 206 and imdiately exclaid with surprise, "little uncle?" Then, feeling a bit embarrassed, she turned to salute Captain Xiang, "Good day, Captain!"
After Captain Xiang returned the salute with a smile, he said, "Luo Ye, indeed you’ve got the look of a soldier. It’s rare to find a few like you who can do this well just after enrollnt."
"Thank you for the complint, Captain," Luo Ye thought to herself with a bit of embarassnt, she was a military person in her past life after all, although not quite qualified.
Wen Tong praised with a smile, "Yeah, Ye’er really does have the appearance of a soldier now. Your grandpa was not wrong. Alright, go with your little uncle!"
Luo Ye looked doubtfully at her little uncle, then back at Xiang Mingliang, wondering what kind of trick they were playing.
Xiang Mingliang waved his hand with a smile, "Luo Ye, you can go back to the Wen Family’s house tonight. Just make sure to return to school before 6 o’clock tomorrow morning."
"Yes, sir!" Luo Ye saluted, her mind still filled with confusion.
Wen Tong and Xiang Mingliang shook hands, "Thank you, Captain Xiang, I will take Ye’er with then."
"OK, goodbye!"
Once out of the office, Luo Ye hurriedly tugged at Wen Tong, "Little uncle, what’s going on? I know how strict the military academy is, how could they agree to let go ho with you?"
Wen Tong joked, "No matter how strict, we can’t not allow our Ye’er to go ho, right?"
"Little uncle!" Luo Ye protested by shaking Wen Tong’s arm.
"Alright, alright, I ca to take Ye’er ho because there was no choice, ever since you’ve been here, your grandma has been constantly worrying, ntioning that you absolutely can’t return ho during the three months of military training, right? The old lady has gone on a hunger strike, saying that if you don’t co back to stay for one night, she will keep starving. No convincing her otherwise.
Seeing this, your grandpa, my dad, had no choice but to call the school and ask for leave on your behalf, so I personally ca to pick you up and explain properly to your direct superior, lest there be any misunderstanding that our family’s Ye’er is a spoiled child."
"Little Pumpkin, that little devil, he claid it was to prevent grandma from worrying herself sick about and did not ntion that he ca to visit . He also instructed not to tell my brothers and sisters so they wouldn’t bla him, and now..." Luo Ye was laughing and crying at the sa ti.
"That little fellow, he’s not big but he’s full of tricks. Your grandpa feels sorry for him because he didn’t have a mother and wasn’t very strict with him. That kid is definitely spoiled rotten!"
"Little uncle..." Luo Ye pouted unhappily, "By the sounds of it, you’re extrely unhappy about coming ho, aren’t you?"
Wen Tong, annoyed, flicked his niece on the forehead, "You... You little troublemaker, always looking for faults. You know full well that’s not what your uncle thinks."
"Hehe..." Mou Ye smiled ingratiatingly, "Little uncle, got anyone in sight?"
"Nosy little thing, do you want to be flicked again?" Wen Tong curled his finger, gauging Mou Ye’s forehead to flick back and forth.
"Cut it out, it’s just because I care about you!" Luo Ye pouted, "I thought I didn’t know, huh? Your secretary has been coveting you, little uncle."
"It was what Little Pumpkin did, wasn’t it?"
Luo Ye smiled proudly, "See, little uncle, you just admitted it yourself, didn’t you?"
"Don’t spout nonsense. Secretary Liu is in the car. I ca straight from the company," Wen Tong sighed helplessly. How did he end up at the rcy of these little devils in his family?
"Little uncle, you ca over from the company, so why did you bring your secretary along?" Luo Ye grinned mischievously.
"You... We’ve arrived. I’ll stop chatting idly. Don’t say anything rash once we’re in the car," Wen Tong warned seriously.
"I know, am I that clueless?" Luo Ye quickly composed herself, returning to her cool and demure ladylike deanor. She only revealed her true self in front of close family. Arriving here, apart from Little Pumpkin, Wen Tong was the second relative she had seen, naturally, she got a little excited.
"Good day, General Manager; hello, Miss Luo!" As they approached the car, Secretary Liu Mian hurried to get out and help open the car door.
"Thank you!" Luo Ye got into the car with a polite smile. At first glance, she didn’t quite like her little uncle’s secretary, who seed a bit sharp.
However, according to Wen Ke and Little Pumpkin, the secretary was quite capable, tackling work with the vigor of a Mr. Pinming, otherwise wouldn’t have earned her little uncle’s esteem. Before little uncle and Little Aunt divorced, Little Aunt often got jealous of them.
Luo Ye secretly observed her little uncle’s glance towards the secretary, fairly certain that her little uncle had no special feelings for the secretary. However, the secretary’s affection for her little uncle was quite obvious.
"Liu Mian, you co sit in front. I will sit in the back with Ye’er," Wen Tong called out to Liu Mian, who was about to sit next to Luo Ye in the car.
