Pushing for Relatives

Fan Ming quickly returned with the news, saying that he had found the person.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiu hurriedly urged Fan Ming to drive quickly. She needed to talk to Yu Yan about this matter.

At that moment, Lin Fan, after returning home, immediately looked for Yan Shun.

The fabric had already been bought, but it seemed like she had forgotten to measure the size for Yan Shun yesterday.

However, the house was empty, and no one was there. Lin Fan assumed that Yan Shun hadn't come back yet, so she took out pen and paper and started designing the style.

This time, she wanted to design a cheongsam. After all, in this era, cheongsams were quite popular in the cities. However, in the military compound, many women did not bother dressing up daily like Zhou Liu did.

In the military camp, Yan Shun casually tossed the gun to someone nearby, unable to hide the smile on his face. The people surrounding him cheered.

"Captain Yan, you're amazing!"

"Victory is ours!"

These past few days, the military camp had been conducting individual competitions, which served as an evaluation of the camp's recent training results. It was heard that the winning company in this competition would receive a special reward. So, the enthusiasm in Yan Shun's company was high.

Just now, the captains of several companies competed together. The company whose captains had the highest target scores would win.

Yan Shun had always perfected all aspects of his skills, so these tasks were relatively simple for him.

The other captains from the same company came over and patted Yan Shun on the back, saying happily, "Captain Yan, you are truly the role model of our company! With you here, how could we lose to other companies!"

"Words can't be spoken like this. Without Captain Yan, would you all have practiced seriously?"

Hearing this voice, everyone involuntarily straightened their bodies and saluted towards the source of the sound. "General!"

The newcomer was Yan Yan, who had just come to the military camp as usual to check if anyone was slacking off. He happened to overhear someone speaking those words and his face instantly became serious.

"Reporting to the General! They didn't mean it that way! Everyone is never lax, even for a moment!" Yan Shun, the company commander, spoke up loudly.

Yan Yan was well aware of this, but he still spoke sternly, "As a soldier, everyone must lead by example, demanding strictness from themselves rather than relying on others to win at critical moments! Do you understand?"

"We understand!"

Yan Yan did not really want to reprimand them. Seeing everyone in high spirits, he did not say much more, turning away from the training ground. He casually chatted with Colonel Lu, who was accompanying him. "Is the assessment coming up soon? There seems to be a vacant position for a battalion commander in one of the battalions. This might be a good opportunity for a promotion."

"I heard that among the platoon leaders, Yan Shun is quite outstanding, a promising talent who should be nurtured," Colonel Lu said.

Colonel Lu thought of something and smiled, "But once a soldier's rank goes up, it represents the face of the military district. It can't solely depend on one's abilities. We have to consider various aspects, such as personal conduct. I heard Yan Shun's wife doesn't have a good reputation outside... It's not very pleasant to hear."

"On the other hand, I heard that the deputy company commander, Jiang Tao, one rank lower than Yan Shun, has a harmonious family. Moreover, his wife is a nurse," Colonel Lu hinted.

A few days ago, his sister had specifically entrusted him. His brother-in-law's nephew was in the same military camp as him, nearing the assessment period. She had asked him to help. Now, a strong rival had appeared, so naturally, Colonel Lu would be biased.

After speaking, he stood aside, silently observing the General's expression. Seeing the General deep in thought, he knew he had achieved his goal.

Sure enough, General Yan said, "That makes sense. I didn't expect Yan Shun to have such strong overall abilities but not handle his family issues well. Let's observe a bit longer!"

General Yan felt a bit disappointed inside, but he agreed with Colonel Lu's words and quickly made a decision.

Yan Shun was unaware of all this. Ever since Lin Fan made a complete change, Yan Shun could not wait to come home every day, as if there were some surprises waiting for him.

"I'm back!" Yan Shun said as he opened the door, seeing Lin Fan holding a piece of fabric and smiling at him.

He nodded with a smile in response.

"Perfect timing, I was thinking of making two outfits for us yesterday. But I forgot to measure the sizes. Come here," Lin Fan's tone was very gentle, making Yan Shun feel like he was dreaming again.
