Chapter 466 Xie Mingzhu felt that the child looked like her son.

Seeing that she insisted, but still worried, Shu Ying thought for a moment and then stepped forward to take the kitchen knife from Xie Mingzhu's hand.

Xie Mingzhu smiled helplessly.

"I know you're worried about me, but cooking is a piece of cake for me. I'll be fine, don't worry."

Shu Ying didn't argue with her, but simply pointed to the wall clock.

"It's not that I want to fight you for it, but I'm not going to cook. Let's eat at the cafeteria today."

"To the cafeteria?"

Shu Ying nodded: "Yes, we were delayed for a while. It's a bit late to cook and eat now. I have to go to work early this afternoon, so let's eat at the cafeteria. It's the most convenient and simplest way."

In an attempt to persuade her sister to eat at the cafeteria, Shu Ying reluctantly made up an excuse.

Xie Mingzhu looked at Shu Ying, as if she had seen through something, but she didn't say anything, she just smiled slightly.

"Okay, let's go to the cafeteria."

Shu Ying breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the two lunchboxes, locked the door, and headed to the cafeteria.

On the way to the cafeteria, Shu Ying was afraid that Xie Mingzhu would overthink things, so she kept talking to her to attract her attention.

Xie Mingzhu responded while looking around in the direction Shu Ying was pointing.

Xie Mingzhu's gaze fell on a tree in the distance. Just as she was about to look away, she suddenly saw a little boy run over, bend down to pick up a leaf from under the tree, and then quickly skip and hop to a tall man's side.

Jiang Jiang naturally took Gu Yanjun's hand, skipping and hopping as she held up the leaf in her hand to show him.

"Gu Yanjun, look, look! Isn't this leaf beautiful? Doesn't it look like a heart?"

Gu Yanjun smiled and nodded in agreement.

Jiang Jiang smiled and put the leaf into her pocket, then continued to hold Gu Yanjun's hand and look around, observing the surroundings with curiosity in her eyes.

"This is the Beijing military region? It's so different from Kunming! It's such a big military region, and there are so many tall trees in front of us!"

Gu Yanjun simply bent down and picked Jiang Jiang up, then turned his head to ask.

"What do you want to eat later? Let me tell you, the cafeteria here is famous for its good food. The dishes are delicious and there's a wide variety of options."

The little guy's eyes lit up more and more as he listened.

"Really?!"

He couldn't help but lick his lips: "Then I want to eat a big chicken leg, and I want to eat meat too, is that okay?"

Gu Yanjun pinched his nose.

"Why do you only think about eating meat? Were you a little tiger or leopard in your past life?"

Jiang Jiang chuckled, "There are so many more things I want to eat! I want to eat okra, stir-fried pork, and so much more..."

Jiang Jiang shook her little head and recited the names of the dishes one by one in Gu Yanjun's arms.

The way they looked wasn't just that they wanted to eat these dishes; it was as if they wanted to take a bite of everything they saw, they were incredibly greedy.

Gu Yanjun listened with a smile throughout, and many soldiers he encountered on the way greeted him politely.

"Commander Gu!"

"Greetings, Commander Gu!"

"Commander, is this your child?"

Gu Yanjun smiled, carrying the child as he passed by them, and continued to explain the local customs and culture of the Beijing Military Region to Jiang Jiang.

After being transferred to the Beijing Military Region, he will most likely stay here and won't leave again.

If Jiangjiang can adapt to life here sooner, he can integrate into the community more quickly.

Gu Yanjun nodded with a faint smile throughout, while Jiang Jiang showed no shyness whatsoever.

After reciting the names of the dishes, Jiang Jiang noticed that many people were greeting Gu Yanjun and seemed very curious about her. So she simply smiled and waved back at them in a generous manner.

Hello everyone!

"Hello Uncle, my name is Jiang Jiang. I'll be staying here with Gu Yanjun from now on!"

"Brother, do you live in the military compound? We might become neighbors in the future! Jiangjiang is going to live in the military compound too!"

Jiang Jiang is naturally adorable, and her innocent smile exudes a natural charm that makes her easy to chat with. Many people can't help but want to talk to the little guy a bit more after seeing her, praising her cuteness.

Xie Mingzhu stared at the child, somewhat lost in thought.

Until the child walked up to her, saw her, and waved at her with a smile.

Hello, beautiful lady!

Gu Yanjun corrected him seriously.

"You should call her Auntie."

The little guy changed his tune without hesitation.

"Hello, super pretty and young auntie! My name is Jiang Jiang! We'll be neighbors from now on!"

"Are you also going to the cafeteria for lunch? We're on our way too! See you at the cafeteria later!"

Xie Mingzhu nodded blankly, not even knowing when she had raised her hand and waved at him. She only remembered that his beautiful and lovely eyes curved like crescent moons when he smiled, and were very pretty.

It also inexplicably gave Xie Mingzhu a special feeling.

It felt like...so familiar,so dear.

To put it bluntly, she felt that the child looked a bit like her son.

The moment the thought popped into her head, Xie Mingzhu quickly closed her eyes.

Has she gone mad? She's hallucinating!

How can you see a child and immediately think it's your son?

but……

The child did indeed look about the same age as her son.

No wonder she would have wild thoughts.

But it's probably just wishful thinking.

Because the child looked very much like the man holding him; his facial features, eyebrows, eyes, and mannerisms were all like miniature versions of him.

One is romantic and cheerful, the other is more restrained.
