Marrying My Bestie's Ferocious Brother - He Calls Me His Baby!-Chapter 221 - 220: My Report Has Only Three Sentences, and Every One Is About You!
The auditorium was brightly lit.
Gu Yanshen pushed the stroller while Lin Wan Yi held his arm, and the family of four walked in.
The previously noisy music and chatter seemed to have been paused.
Hundreds of eyes turned towards them simultaneously.
Amazement, curiosity, and some concealed amusement.
"Is this Gu Yanshen’s wife? Even prettier than the rumors."
"Did you hear about that scene at the entrance? They treated Zhang Lina like a hostile attack!"
"The living Yama is truly the living Yama, even harsh to his own people."
Though the discussions were low, they couldn’t stop drifting towards them.
Lin Wan Yi walked with composure, as if she were strolling in her own backyard.
Gu Yanshen didn’t glance sideways, his stern face bore only one expression: don’t bother me.
At that moment, a middle-aged man wearing a Zhongshan suit with stars on his shoulders approached them, surrounded by a group of cadres, smiling.
It was Political Commissioner Zhou from the National Defense University.
The few cadres following him had somewhat nuanced expressions.
There was a good show to watch.
Gu Yanshen had publicly embarrassed a female comrade and stirred up the security department; this matter could be big or small.
Political Commissioner Zhou approached Gu Yanshen.
"Good boy!"
He didn’t criticize but instead raised his hand to heavily pat Gu Yanshen’s shoulder.
The sound was crisp and powerful.
"I saw it all from upstairs just now."
Political Commissioner Zhou smiled so much that his eyes squinted.
"Not bad! Our officers should have this stance and sense of boundaries!"
"A family is the smallest nation; if you can’t guard the family, how can you defend the country?"
His words were not quiet, transmitting clearly across half the auditorium.
Those around, ready to watch the excitement, froze in expression.
Is this...praise?
Political Commissioner Zhou turned his gaze to Lin Wan Yi, his attitude instantly softening.
"You must be Comrade Xiao Lin? Truly, see once more than hear a hundred times."
"Yanshen, this youngster has a stubborn temperament; please bear with it more. It’s tough taking care of two kids."
Holding Gu Ning, who was watching the commotion with wide eyes, Lin Wan Yi smiled slightly.
"The chief praises too much; he is very good."
Simple five words, neither humble nor pushy, yet exuding an indescribable confidence.
Political Commissioner Zhou nodded in satisfaction.
He bent over, amusing Gu An, who was in the stroller dismantling a Rubik’s Cube.
"Good boy, bright eyes!"
This changed the wind completely.
Even the Commissioner personally came out to support Gu Yanshen; who dared say anything against him?
In the crowd, an officer named Liu Quan had an unpleasant expression.
He and Gu Yanshen were contemporaries, always overshadowed, feeling indignant inside.
Seeing Gu Yanshen not punished but praised, he couldn’t help himself.
Liu Quan held a wine glass, walked forward, and with a false smile, began.
"Political Commissioner Zhou is right; Mr. Gu stands firm and is our role model."
He praised first.
But then his tone changed.
"However, Ms. Zhang is after all a female comrade." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
"Mr. Gu made her so embarrassed publicly and alarmed the security department; isn’t it somewhat... excessive?"
"We soldiers should be ruthless like winter to enemies, warm like spring to comrades."
His words sounded justified and dignified.
Outwardly probing an issue of conduct; in reality, it was mudslinging Gu Yanshen.
Suggesting he’s ruthless to comrades, unable to separate public from personal matters.
Many nodded subtly, feeling the reasoning was valid.
Gu Yanshen’s brows furrowed, the temperature around him dropping suddenly.
Zhao Tiezhu beside him clenched his fists anxiously.
This Liu, truly a bastard!
Just as Gu Yanshen was about to speak and freeze someone into an ice sculpture.
Lin Wan Yi moved.
Holding Gu Ning, she took a half step forward, perfectly positioned ahead of Gu Yanshen.
She looked at Liu Quan, her eyebrows soft.
"Thank you for the reminder, comrade."
Liu Quan was stunned.
Thank him?
Lin Wan Yi gently sighed, her tone carrying a hint of helplessness.
"You’re right; Yanshen does indeed have shortcomings."
"He’s too straightforward, single-minded; his head is too empty."
"Besides the tasks assigned by superiors, there’s just me and the kids left in him."
She spoke while glancing affectionately at the man beside her.
"Others, other matters, in his mind, he doesn’t even understand or accept them."
"In that situation, he probably just felt someone might harm his wife and children, so he was solely focused on protecting us."
"The reaction was a bit excessive; when we return, I’ll definitely criticize him thoroughly and ensure he’s gentler next time."
After she finished, the entire place fell silent.
Then, who knows who chuckled first.
Following that, the laughter seemed contagious.
Even Political Commissioner Zhou couldn’t help but smile, pointing at Gu Yanshen and shaking his head.
The words spoken were exceptionally clever!
What are shortcomings?
This was undoubtedly the most touching love confession in the world!
What is enemy identification procedure?
It’s ingraining wife and children into his instincts!
Liu Quan’s face turned livid.
He intended to dig a hole for Gu Yanshen; instead, his wife effortlessly buried him.
And incidentally fed everyone a mouthful of dog food!
Looking at Lin Wan Yi’s serene face and Gu Yanshen’s evident protective posture.
He finally understood.
These two were like iron and cotton.
Seemingly soft, yet tougher than anyone internally!
He retreated awkwardly, not daring to utter another word.
At this moment, the host took to the stage.
"Next, let’s warmly welcome the outstanding trainee representative of this year, Comrade Gu Yanshen, to deliver his speech!"
Thunderous applause.
Gu Yanshen pushed the stroller to Lin Wan Yi’s side.
"Wait for me."
He whispered before turning to walk toward the podium.
He walked steadily, military boots striking the ground, each step resonating with a powerful force.
The entire hall quieted down, ready to hear the report from this "war machine."
By convention, such speeches often summarize tactical ideas and learning experiences.
Dry, but necessary to listen carefully.
Gu Yanshen stood behind the podium.
He didn’t look at the manuscript in his hand.
His gaze went beyond the dense crowd, finding perfectly the slender figure with the stroller in the last row.
He began speaking.
His voice echoed through the microphone, spreading across the hall.
"My report is short."
Everyone perked up their ears.
"From being here, I’ve learned three things."
"First, in any complex environment, recognize your primary task and core objective at the first moment."
His gaze fixed firmly on Lin Wan Yi.
"Second, use the quickest and most effective means to eliminate any potential disruptions to completing your task."
When he said this, many in the audience recalled Zhang Lina being dragged away earlier.
Low laughter sounded.
Gu Yanshen paused, his voice sinking.
"Third."
His eyes, tender enough to drip with warmth.
"Never forget why you fight."
After speaking.
He slightly nodded towards the direction of the podium.
"Political Commissioner Zhou, chiefs."
"That concludes my report."
Everyone was dumbfounded.
This... was over?
Was this a military report? No, this was the most hardcore confession scene ever!
Not waiting for everyone to react.
Gu Yanshen had already stepped down from the podium.
He went straight through the crowd, arriving in front of Lin Wan Yi.
Under hundreds of watching eyes, he naturally took over the stroller’s handle.
Then he leaned slightly, whispering in Lin Wan Yi’s ear, with a voice only measurable to both of them.
"Wife, let’s go home."
