In middle age, one's comprehension becomes extraordinary.

Xia Zhan's persistent questioning left Zhuang Meng completely bewildered.

She didn't understand the purpose of Xia Zhan's question. Was he trying to criticize her from a different angle?

Just answer truthfully. Does he still have feelings for you?

If so, how deep is this obsession?

Seeing that she didn't answer, Xia Zhan pressed for more details, insisting on an answer.

Zhuang Meng glanced at Tang Wenlou beside her.

I'd like to get some advice from my future father-in-law.

However, Tang Wenlou couldn't figure out what Xia Zhan meant at the moment.

"Zhuang Meng, just answer truthfully."

The truth is the truth; I'll explain it to Shuchen for you.

Upon hearing Tang Wenlou's words, Zhuang Meng did not hesitate.

I don't know how to judge how deep this obsession is.

All I can say is that if I were willing to get closer to him, he would probably agree to anything.

Zhuang Meng carried this confidence from beginning to end.

This confidence made her always feel that Li Yuan was someone she could have.

You can pick it up anytime you reach for your chopsticks.

"Commander-in-Chief, although I have this confidence, I am certain that his obsession runs deep."

But I'm getting married soon after all.

Because of this, he won't talk to me at all now.

They pretended to ignore me to annoy me.

He knew there was no hope; even if I talked to him, it probably wouldn't improve things much.

Zhuang Meng thought she had guessed Xia Zhan's thoughts.

She was to be sent to persuade Li Yuan.

Unfortunately, Zhuang Meng believes that she cannot do this now.

Upon hearing her words, Xia Zhan did not look at Zhuang Meng, but instead turned to look at Tang Wenlou.

"Wenlou, I have some thoughts that may be a little excessive."

Can the marriage between Shuchen and Zhuangmeng be cancelled?

I think perhaps we could have Zhuang Meng talk to Li Yuan.

We completely sided with Li Yuan.

If we can accomplish this, then the merit Li Yuan has made should belong to us.

The problem we're facing now can be solved!

Xia Zhan's words stunned Zhuang Meng, who seemed somewhat unable to accept them.

Tang Wenlou, who was standing to the side, also looked grim.

Isn't it too shameful to send your own daughter-in-law there?

"Wenlou, we are now at a critical juncture of life and death."

If I, as the commander-in-chief, can't sit still, then you, as the deputy commander, can forget about it either.

Everything your Tang family has today will be thrown away step by step.

Xia Zhan's words struck Tang Wenlou's mind like a hammer blow.

At such a critical moment, saving face is useless.

Without this power, he will lose more than just his daughter-in-law.

In fact, this loss is the smallest.

Zhuang Meng wasn't particularly outstanding; she came from an ordinary family and was just a liaison officer here.

Her relationship with Tang Shuchen was clearly a case of her marrying up.

Tang Wenlou was not very satisfied at first.

But after thinking about it, I decided to see what my son thought.

Tang Shuchen felt that Zhuang Meng was very good at providing emotional value, and it was very comfortable to be around her.

Although Tang Shuchen also felt that he deserved better.

In the end, she chose Zhuang Meng.

Tang Shuchen lacked the confidence to find a better female companion.

And those female companions probably wouldn't provide him with enough emotional support.

"Commander-in-chief, Shuchen and I are engaged, and we will get married at the end of the year."

How could you...?

Zhuang Meng's words carried a hint of disdain for Li Yuan.

To this day, she still feels that being paired with Li Yuan would be a disservice to herself.

Zhuang Meng didn't think she couldn't do these things; she just didn't want to.

She didn't want to marry down and become Li Yuan's confidante.

"Zhuang Meng, if you truly love Shu Chen, you should help him."

The Tang family cannot withstand such a great loss.

With Wenlou in trouble, Tang Shuchen won't have an easy time either.

He has everything now, but much of it will disappear.

What Xia Zhan said was also true.

The most important people in Tang Wenlou's family are Tang Wenlou and his wife.

These are Tang Shuchen's parents.

His parents lost their positions in the command center, and the entire Tang family was reduced to an ordinary family, even worse off than an ordinary family.

"Shuchen is very talented in martial arts. Even when he encounters difficulties, he can always win them back through martial arts..."

When Zhuang Meng said these things, Xia Zhan even felt that she was a little foolish.

Unless Tang Shuchen is comparable to Xia Zhao, relying on him is simply hopeless.

Seeing that Xia Zhan still insisted on that point, Zhuang Meng turned her head to look at Tang Wenlou beside her.

But at this moment, Tang Wenlou seemed to have made a decision.

He turned his head to look at Zhuang Meng, his expression serious.

"Xiaomeng, I know this is very unfair to you, but I also know that you love Shuchen very much."

Could you please help him this time, and help our Tang family?

I can assure you, he will remember your kindness for the rest of his life...

Tang Wenlou's decision left Zhuang Meng completely stunned.

She felt she could understand Xia Zhan's suggestion.

After all, he had no real relationship with her, and it was only natural that he would make arrangements for his own benefit.

But at this moment, the person saying these words is Tang Wenlou.

This is Tang Shuchen's father, her future father-in-law.

Zhuang Meng never expected that he would ask her to get close to Li Yuan and win him over.

"We, the people here, can only rely on you."

Martial arts training requires a lot of resources, Zhuang Meng, you should know this very well.

Without his father's support, Tang Shuchen would have no chance to continue on the path of martial arts.

"I'm begging you, Xia Zhan, I owe you a huge favor, okay?"

Seeing Xia Zhan's expression, Tang Wenlou, who was standing to the side, also spoke up, hoping that Zhuang Meng would carry out the plan.

Seeing their statements, Zhuang Meng knew she had no choice.

If he doesn't agree with this plan, Tang Wenlou will not allow her to marry Tang Shuchen.

With this in mind, Zhuang Meng prepared to make a final struggle.

"I can help you find Li Yuan and get him to agree to some things."

But there are some things I want to make clear beforehand: I don't want to marry Li Yuan.

I will break up with him after things are settled.

The only person I think about is Shuchen.

Upon hearing this, Tang Wenlou unconsciously frowned.

He didn't actually want it to be like this.

He preferred that the two of them separate so that Tang Shuchen could find someone else.

Find a daughter-in-law who is a good match for you and can offer some help.

Now that Zhuang Meng had spoken up, they had no choice but to agree and echo his sentiments.

If Zhuang Meng can bring Li Yuan over, the whole situation can be reversed.

In the end, all these credits will be arranged by their faction.

As for Deputy Commander Zhou, he's nothing but a petty person who tries to steal credit.

After discussing the matter, Zhuang Meng prepared her own plan and began looking for opportunities to meet with Li Yuan for a detailed discussion.

Meanwhile, Li Yuan was dealing with the production line in Wugang City.

Xia Zhao went in with her this time.

She observed the situation yesterday and realized that there was still significant danger.

If she goes in with him, she will be able to handle many dangers.

Another production line was put back into operation under Li Yuan's guidance.

These production lines are actually quite different.

Each time a new production line is installed, the installation techniques that need to be learned are different.

But Li Yuan completed it so easily.
