After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Shows-Chapter 839 - 829: Extra Story: Living Freely

When Shen Qiangqiang was five, she served as the flower girl at her uncle's wedding.

Jiang Lingxi was the officiant at the wedding.

Luckily, the wedding only invited family and close friends from both sides, and there were quite a few overlapping family members and only close friends were invited.

If they hadn't kept it low-key, with Jiang Lingxi's fame as the officiant and the rising star groom in the music industry, the wedding could easily have hit the trending topics list.

However, if they didn't want too much attention, they had to try to keep it as low-key as possible.

No media were invited, and even the wedding videography was done by capable family members.

After the low-key wedding, the newlyweds began their equally low-key honeymoon travel.

Just as Shen Qiangqiang waved goodbye to her sweet uncle and aunt going out to play, she was informed that she had to start school.

However, Shen Qiangqiang was quite looking forward to going to school.

At home, she was the only child, but at school it was different. Kids everywhere, and she already started looking forward to gathering a bunch of little followers and being the boss!

Jiang Lingxi and Shen Yunqing didn't know that their plump daughter had already quietly started planning her little follower recruitment business. Like other parents, the couple approached their child's education in the same way as other parents.

They looked into many schools, public and private, focusing on academics and on interest development, even those that went from kindergarten all the way through high school.

"Forget it, the girl has her own ideas, might as well let her choose herself."

After all, there was no throne to inherit at home, so it's better to live more freely.

"That's fine."

The couple reached an agreement, and thus Shen Qiangqiang was given the power to choose her school.

Jiang Lingxi and Shen Yunqing, before the school started, took their daughter to visit various schools.

After visiting only a few, Shen Qiangqiang decisively chose a large public school with a large student body.

Next to it was a middle school and high school that they could smoothly move up to.

Since their daughter had made her choice, Jiang Lingxi and Shen Yunqing naturally didn't express any additional opinions and quickly completed her enrollment process.

After all, before their daughter chose, they had already crossed out the schools they were unhappy with.

The remaining ones were all quite good, so it was just a matter of which school the one going to school liked the most.

When September came and all the elementary and secondary schools started, the couple specifically cleared their schedule on the opening day to send their chubby daughter to school together.

Only after returning to Xiyuan did they notice something was amiss.

"Now that Qiangqiang is at school, the house suddenly feels much quieter!"

Initially, Xiyuan only had some fish in the lake, and no other animals were raised.

In the year Shen Qiangqiang turned four, they found and brought back an injured stray cat near Xiyuan to raise.

Things got out of hand after that.

So far, Xiyuan had three cats, two dogs, and seven or eight various thrush birds whose numbers only Shen Qiangqiang knew, showcasing a rich variety of species.

Usually, if Shen Qiangqiang didn't want to sit quietly indoors, she'd either lead her army of cats and dogs to roam around or chase the thrush birds in the bird yard until they flew everywhere. Jiang Lingxi had to lock the gate of her courtyard to steal some leisure time, lest her daughter barged in and disturbed her peace during playtime.

Now that the little mistress was at school, the cats, dogs, and birds at home also became peaceful.

Jiang Lingxi was certainly not going to walk them.

Now that everything had suddenly quieted down, it was a bit unfamiliar.

In contrast to Jiang Lingxi and Shen Yunqing's slight unfamiliarity as parents, Shen Qiangqiang was thriving at school.

With an innate sense of leadership and vast experiences from traveling far and wide at a young age, she maintained stability among a group of nervous newcomers, catching the teacher's eye immediately.

On the first day of school, Shen Qiangqiang won the position of class monitor by assisting the teacher in calming her classmates with her strong emotional influence.

Jiang Lingxi, aware of her daughter's capability, was not surprised: Basic operation!

But she wasn't proud for long before being called in as a parent.

The chubby daughter had beaten up a chubby boy two grades older during recess.

Jiang Lingxi arrived at almost the same time as the beaten boy's parent.

Upon entering, she saw her chubby daughter, oozing presence, glaring fiercely at a chubby boy in the corner with a beaten and bruised face.

The chubby boy, held by his equally chubby mother, burst into tears.

"Boohoo, she hit me and it hurts; I'm not going to school anymore!"

Jiang Lingxi: "..."

Was he so afraid of being beaten that he didn't even want to go to school anymore?

However, knowing her daughter, despite learning some martial arts, she wasn't someone who would readily use her fists.

The fact that she beat that chubby boy so badly showed she was genuinely angered.

"Qiangqiang, why did you hit him?"

The chubby boy's mom, ready to scold, paused when she saw Jiang Lingxi's face as she removed her sunglasses.

Unable to speak under Jiang Lingxi's aura.

"He was extorting allowance from me and my followers!"

"Extortion? My son has plenty of allowance and would never extort!"

Faced with the loud refutation from the bullied chubby boy's parent, Jiang Lingxi held back the teacher who was about to intervene.

"Let Qiangqiang handle it herself."

Teacher: "..."

Fortunately, Shen Qiangqiang didn't let her mother and teacher down. She directly played a recording from her children's watch on her wrist, revealing a noisy background and the chubby boy's plan to extort lower-grade students.

There was even a segment where she staged her own extortion by the chubby boy and her subsequent comeback.

At the end of the recording, the chubby boy's pitiful cries from being beaten filled everyone's ears.

Except for Jiang Lingxi, everyone else, including the teacher, was stunned.

A five-year-old girl could beat a boy three years her senior so badly that he didn't even dare to attend school again, which was already astonishing enough.

But to have the foresight to record the chubby boy's 'crime evidence' and even use herself as bait for revenge showcased an ability to plan several moves ahead. Could this really have been done without parental guidance?

Even with parental guidance, who would risk putting their child against a much older child, without fearing uncontrollable dangers during execution?

So the plans revealed in the recording could only have been made by Shen Qiangqiang herself.

How could they not be shocked!

Actually, sometimes Jiang Lingxi felt a bit regretful.

Both Jiang Lingxi and Shen Yunqing realized early on that Shen Qiangqiang was suitable to be a Crown Prince or even a Monarch in many aspects.

Unfortunately, this wasn't the previous life.

There weren't any what-ifs.

But with loss comes gain. In this life, her little princess only needed to live freely and unrestrained!
