Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander-Chapter 1231 - 811: Attitude

First watch.

Huang Suai looked at Old Madam Zhou with a wry smile: "Grandma Zhou, why do I feel like I’m just asking for trouble? To be honest, I’m really looking for Chuxia only because I’m afraid she’ll get hurt. It’s not like you imagine, like a weasel looking to visit the chicken house during the New Year.

Even though Lin Wenhang and I aren’t married yet, our relationship is already settled. But until now, the only ones who have accepted me are Lin Wenhang and Second Aunt Lin.

Since I want to marry into the Lin family, I have to integrate myself into the Lin family. As of now, Chuxia is the best mediator. As long as she accepts me, everyone in the Lin family will accept me.

I admit, I’m very calculative, but my approach doesn’t harm anyone’s interests. On the contrary, it will harmonize the relationships within the Lin family. Overall, it’s a good thing, right?"

Hearing her say this, Old Madam Zhou’s expression softened a bit, and she turned to Chuxia: "Grandma won’t stop you, make your own decision."

The old lady always has my best interests at heart. If I were to go upstairs with Huang Suai now, although she wouldn’t say anything, it would feel a bit like disrespecting her. So Chuxia sat there without getting up: "Second Sister-in-law, if you have something to say, just say it in front of everyone. We’re all family, there’s no need to hide anything."

Wu Jingbo shifted uncomfortably, and Chuxia looked at her: "No need to remind me; you’re family too."

This recognition made Wu Jingbo feel touched but also uneasy, so she sneaked a glance at the elders of the Zhou family. Wang Zhongliang and Qin Yingfen had already slipped into the kitchen to keep busy when everyone came in, given their standing, which was normal. If she were to leave abruptly, it wouldn’t be appropriate. But staying felt awkward, so what should she do?

Noticing Wu Jingbo’s inner turmoil, Old Madam Zhou smiled: "Child, since Xia said you’re family, then you are family. In this house, can’t you tell that Xia is the eldest?"

"Grandma..." Chuxia stepped forward and wrapped her arm around the old lady, showing reluctance, "No matter what, I can’t possibly be the eldest in the house. But I know that my friends, whom I acknowledge, will also be acknowledged by grandma, grandpa, dad, and mom."

"That’s right. Our Xia has an outstanding ability to judge people..." The old lady indulgently held Chuxia in her arms, "Grandma can’t compare to that."

"Grandma, I’ll gladly accept your compliment..." Chuxia then turned to Huang Suai, "Doctor Huang, please go ahead."

With that being said, Huang Suai naturally couldn’t dodge it any longer and looked seriously at several people: "I’ve known Zuo Hai before, and he is a particularly smart person. However, he’s also very stubborn. Once he’s set on something, no one can change his mind.

In the past, he dedicated all his thoughts to his studies. After being deliberately targeted by Ye Meiru, his entire heart was attached to her. In his mind, Ye Meiru was the most beautiful, kindest, and most lovable woman in the world.

Of course, this isn’t just my speculation. When I met him not long ago, he told me this himself. To be honest, at that time, he scared me.

I’ve known him for so many years, and I’ve never seen him care about any girl this deeply. He grew up with Ou Jie, but he never mentioned her to me.

He is particularly proud, and because I have a certain talent in medicine, he thinks we are the same kind of people, which is why we became friends and he tells me everything.

When he talked about Ye Meiru, his eyes were dreamy, like a young man in the throes of first love meeting a girl he admires. Knowing his character, I didn’t try to dissuade him at the time.

I originally thought that with his temperament, when the day comes that Ye Meiru dumps him, this matter would naturally resolve itself over time. But I didn’t expect things to develop to this point.

I think you can imagine, Ye Meiru certainly wouldn’t speak well of Chuxia in front of him. Anyway, when he talked to me, he said that everyone thinks Ye Meiru is bad, but in fact, Ye Meiru was simply harmed by Lin Chuxia. If Lin Chuxia hadn’t snatched Zhou Mikang, Ye Meiru could have lived happily.

He’s the type of person who, for the happiness of the person he loves, can send the one he loves to the person they love. You can call him selfless, or say his mind is troubled.

Anyway, he’s just that stubborn, so when Ye Meiru was sent away this time, he blamed all the responsibility on Chuxia. Based on my understanding of him, he will definitely come to settle the score with Chuxia. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

During this time, it’s best if you strengthen your security. Though Zuo Hai isn’t particularly skilled in combat, he is good at using poison. Chuxia is currently pregnant..." At this point, Huang Suai spread her hands, "I don’t need to say the rest, do I?"

Zhou Mikang frowned tightly and said nothing.

Old Madam Zhou looked at Huang Suai seriously: "Child, I’m very grateful that you came to tell us this, but if you could have said it earlier, I think I’d feel quite different."

"Grandma Zhou..." Huang Suai said with a wry smile, "It wasn’t that I didn’t want to say it, but I had no opportunity to. We aren’t that familiar, and wanting to talk to Zhou Mikang, he avoids me like the plague. So I thought it was better to wait until reaching my destination to speak to Chuxia, and that’s why I held back."

Zhou Mikang glanced at her and said calmly: "No matter what, thank you."

Seeing the expression on her commander’s face, Chuxia knew the commander was displeased that she spoke late. And indeed, the sooner it was said, the sooner it could be dealt with, and therefore safer. Although Huang Suai said there was no opportunity, it’s plain to see she intentionally waited.

This is understandable too. Although Huang Suai planned to marry Lin Wenhang, she seemed to value Zhou Mikang more. Yet, she’s a very proud girl and doesn’t want others to think she still has feelings for him, so she tried her best to avoid it. Little did she realize, this only highlighted her guilty conscience.

Chuxia sighed inwardly; should she count her blessings for her good fortune and light a candle for the other party?

The silence in the room was awkward, so Lin Yanqiu lightly coughed and looked at Huang Suai warmly: "Xiao Ai, thank you so much. If you hadn’t reminded us, the consequences would really be unimaginable. Oh..." she glanced at the kitchen, "It’s getting late, why don’t you stay for dinner?"

Is this an invitation for dinner? Clearly a polite way to ask her to leave, right? Huang Suai wasn’t stupid, so she stood up immediately: "Thanks for the reminder, Auntie. I only just realized how time flies.

Well, I’ll definitely come and bother you another day. Today I can’t; I have an appointment with Wenhang to go home together after he gets off work. Even though most of the Lin family doesn’t accept me, I still have to make an effort.

By the way, Chuxia..." she turned her gaze towards Chuxia, "I’d really appreciate it if you could put in a good word for me with grandpa, grandma, uncle, and aunt. You know my situation; it’s really a dead end. But overall, I think it’s better to be family than enemies."

Before Chuxia could answer, Zhou Mikang’s face darkened: "Are you threatening my wife?"

Huang Suai smiled calmly: "I just wanted to express that this is a fair exchange, so that everyone wouldn’t misunderstand my intentions."

"No..." Chuxia also looked at her calmly, "Indeed, you are about to become my second sister-in-law; we should count as family. But you also know, I’m not very close with my second brother, much less with you.

Moreover, there have been many misunderstandings between us, which are not things that can just be erased by mere words. So, I won’t pretend with you; I’m very thankful for everything you’ve said today.

But regarding your engagement with my second brother and your relationship with the Lin family, I don’t plan to get involved, because I think you really don’t need my help. By saying this, you’re just trying to find a suitable reason for helping me.

I believe in the principle that time will reveal a person’s true colors. Even if we aren’t very trusting of you now, if you truly mean well for me, we will see it sooner or later.

I like people who are straightforward, so I hope that in the future, when we interact, you’ll directly tell me what you want, to avoid all this guessing—I don’t like it."

Huang Suai sighed bitterly: "First, I must clarify, I really have no choice about blending into the Lin family. They all reject me. Although I do have some talent in medicine, in this aspect, I really lack any exceptional flair.

Of course, I also feel that moving them with sincerity is better than asking you to intercede. You guessed it right, I’m aware that I came to seek your help, indeed, to dispel your doubts.

I’m not someone with a bleeding heart out of goodwill; my actions indeed have my own objectives. But this time..." Her gaze fell on Chuxia’s belly, "There are two lives at stake. I don’t want to regret it in the future."

"He won’t have the chance." Zhou Mikang’s expression remained indifferent as he looked at Huang Suai, "Even if you hadn’t mentioned it, he wouldn’t have had the opportunity to get close to Chuxia. Do you think I’d be so careless as to leave her here without protection?"

"Xiaomi!" Lin Yanqiu glared at her son but quickly switched to a smile looking at Huang Suai, "We are very grateful that you told us about this matter, truly."

Old Madam Zhou echoed her daughter-in-law: "Yes, we appreciate you telling us."

Zhao Yulan quickly added: "My husband and I also thank you for informing us of this." As she spoke, she pulled Lin Baohe aside, prompting him to nod in agreement with his wife’s words.

Old Master Wan and Old Master Zhou exchanged glances but remained silent.

Overall, Huang Suai’s actions were rather aboveboard this time; she could have chosen not to say anything. However, given her relationship with Zuo Hai, Zhou Mikang would have eventually figured things out. If she hadn’t spoken, it might have been even harder for her and Zhou Mikang to cooperate in the future. So... they hesitated to say the words "thank you" lightly. (To be continued.
