Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander-Chapter 1190 - 784: Transformation
First Watch.

"Your daughter has never encountered setbacks until now, which shows that she has had it too easy, and heaven has indeed been too kind to her. If this one incident knocks her down for good, then what significant achievements can she make?
Minister Ou, I know that speaking like this is very rude, but I’m sorry, you are making things difficult for me, so I can only express my own views.
Moreover, since my husband has already made his decision, I have no reason to make things difficult for him. He made this decision to protect me, so how can I embarrass him?
It’s clear that Minister Ou is an upright person, and I believe Minister Ou won’t trouble me or my husband over this matter, right?"
When he received his daughter’s call in the morning, Ou Mingtao didn’t think much of it. He believed that with his daughter’s excellence and pride, there was no way she’d take a liking to Zhou Mikang, especially since he was already married.
At the same time, he knew very well that since his daughter was not very receptive to family advice from an early age, she lacked in etiquette and interpersonal skills.
However, her talent in military matters absolutely overshadowed this flaw; otherwise, she wouldn’t have attained the position of a senior colonel at the age of twenty-five.
He thought that after explaining to Zhou Mikang on the phone, the latter would surely change his mind. Unexpectedly, Zhou Mikang directly gave him a hard refusal.
Helpless, he could only swallow his pride and ask his old friend, Jiang Chaoqun, who partnered with Zhou Jingping, to act as a mediator. In his mind, since Zhou Jingping was both a father and a superior, he should be able to persuade his son, right?
In the end, Jiang Chaoqun called him back saying that Zhou Jingping had indeed called his son, to no avail, and that he should stop troubling him, and stop troubling Zhou Jingping as well.
Furthermore, he advised that to truly resolve the matter, one must talk to Zhou Mikang’s wife, Lin Chuxia.
It so happened that Lin Chuxia was at Medical University. After checking her information, he was certain that a girl who grew up in a small rural place wouldn’t change radically even if she married into the Zhou family or returned to the Dalin Family.
He believed that with a little persuasion, she would definitely help. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Unexpectedly, he was entirely wrong.
Firstly, when she met him, after the initial surprise, her demeanor could absolutely be described as poised and dignified. Moreover, many children from prominent families did not possess her level of composure.
Then, she straightforwardly rejected him without a hint of hesitation, even threatening him. How could this be a girl who grew up in a small rural household?!
Until today, no young person had ever behaved so confidently in front of him. Ou Mingtao even doubted whether the information he had was accurate.
But now wasn’t the time to question these things. He knew the situation was tense, and he genuinely hoped his daughter could contribute to the country with her intelligence at this time.
However, he couldn’t state the real reason. What kind of reasonable excuse would make her relent?
Looking at the furrowed brows of Ou Mingtao, Chuxia was also puzzled. His daughter’s character is obviously flawed; experiencing setbacks and hardships while young is actually beneficial for her future development. Given Ou Mingtao’s status, he shouldn’t be so unable to see this, right?
If he couldn’t understand even such simple reasoning, how did he come to occupy his position? He must have been extremely lucky, or he won’t hold it for very long.
At this moment, Chuxia had already mentally dismissed Minister Ou from his position, embarrassed~
"Comrade Xiao Lin..." Ou Mingtao sighed slightly, looking at Chuxia with some embarrassment, "I know continuing to speak is a bit tactless, but it’s really necessary for my daughter to stay at A Division.
I also assure you that she will absolutely not act inappropriately towards your husband. Even if you don’t trust her, surely you can trust that I, this old man, wouldn’t deceive you? Otherwise, where would my face be, right?"
Your daughter isn’t interested in Zhou Mikang, as if! Chuxia thought to herself but didn’t say it out loud. Otherwise, this old man would definitely think she was simply jealous and that was why she wouldn’t help.
"Minister Ou, then I’ll call Zhou Mikang now."
Unexpectedly, when Chuxia, who was adamantly refusing earlier, suddenly agreed decisively, Ou Mingtao was slightly taken aback and quickly pushed the phone towards Chuxia: "I knew it, Comrade Xiao Lin is a magnanimous child."
