Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander

Chapter 407: Chapter 433 Gu Junming is Having a Hard Time

Yang Xiong could only comfort her: "Take care of yourself too, look at what you've becalong with Yang

Dongfeng. If you get sick, this family will be even more chaotic. You two don’t just have one daughter, there's

another one. As for that wastrel, don’t worry about her."

He no longer had any affection for this granddaughter and wished he didn’t even recognize her.

Zhao Jieyun hurriedly nodded: "Dad, | know, is there any news from Gu Junming?"

"Hmm, no news yet. There are so many soldiers, they have to go everywhere. But don’t worry, the flood

prevention suggestions Gu Junming proposed earlier were adopted, so this tit’s not too serious. The dam's

sandbags are also much higher than before. They should be relocating villagers in advance now."

Zhao Jieyun breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. | was worried about something happening to Gu Junming."

With their eldest daughter like that, if something happened to their second daughter, none of them would be

able to live.

They were constantly worried about the flood relief efforts, continually inquiring about it. But there was still no

news about Gu Junming, leaving everyone on edge.

Sun Chan was even more anxious, unable to eat or sleep, losing a lot of weight in a short time.

She was afraid her in-laws in the Gu Family and countryside would worry, so she would call and write to reassure

them, keeping all her tension bottled up inside.

Today was Wang Guihua’s birthday. Sun Chan left school, bought sitems, and headed to the Gu Family to

celebrate with her.

Gu Juntao and his wife had already cwith their child. Yang Hongying went to the kitchen with the nanny to

cook, while Gu Juntao held the child and chatted with his mother. Wang Guihua’s face bore no smile. She truly

didn’t like this granddaughter.

"Where's Dad?"

"Hmph, as if he cares about me," Wang Guihua sneered, "he went with your grandfather to the military, saying

he’s worried about the disaster." In her heart, she grumbled, "What does that have to do with us? He has nothing

better to do."

"They're concerned about the military situation, they should be back by evening, Dad always remembers."

Wang Guihua sighed: "Your dad and | just make do, whether he remembers my birthday or not, | don’t care. |

have no expectations now. If you could make something of yourself, | wouldn't ask for more."

"What do you wantto do, argue with Dad?" Gu Juntao frowned slightly, bouncing the child in his arms. The

little girl, dressed in maroon clothes, was fair and tender, as cute as a dumpling, but her grandmother didn’t

spare her a glance.

Wang Guihua glanced toward the kitchen and nudged Gu Juntao, whispering, "Is she really unable to have more

kids? Get a doctor to check. You're not in the military anymore, have a second child, we can register the child

under someone else’s household..."

"Mom, | won't do that. Having this daughter is enough for me. If you don’t want our household to be unsettled,

stop saying useless things." Gu Juntao couldn't believe that after all this time, his mother was still dreaming. He

was annoyed to no end, raising his voice a little, startling the child, who pouted, about to cry.

It pained Gu Juntao: "Nannan, don’t cry. Daddy didn’t mean it, oh oh." He soothed her.

Wang Guihua was irritated seeing her son so doting on a little girl, criticizing him not to spoil her too much.

"Just like Yang Hongying, all delicate and with no skills whatsoever, always crying at the slightest issue, how is

that helpful? She should be strong and capable."

Yang Hongying, eavesdropping in the kitchen, squeezed a large chili in anger. The nanny kept her head down,

pretending not to notice.

Sun Chan entered at this point, carrying a cake. It was customary to bring a rather nice big cake to celebrate a

senior’s birthday, enough for the whole family to share.

"You're here?" Wang Guihua becspirited, smiling warmly as she greeted her, "You've worked hard these

days with Gu Junming not around."

Sun Chan smiled: "It's nothing. Happy birthday."

Wang Guihua thanked her with a smile, taking the items inside. Gu Juntao, no longer in the military, wasn’t

involved in the flood relief, but Gu Junming had to go, suffering hardships beyond description. So seeing Sun

Chan provided a sense of schadenfreude. Newlyweds being separated must be unpleasant, right? Her smile

becmore genuine.

"How is Gu Junming? Any news? This flood is massive, | heard they can barely eat? Will he face health issues?

What if there's danger?"

Gu Juntao frowned: "Mom, what are you saying! Isn't that poking at a sore spot?"

Sun Chan laughed: "It’s alright. She’s concerned about Gu Junming. I'll go help in the kitchen." With that, she

left.

Wang Guihua didn’t mind at all, sitting down with a bright smile.

Seeing Gu Junming in trouble made her feel more balanced.

Sun Chan was in the kitchen cooking with Yang Hongying. They got along well, but both were either worried

about Gu Junming or in a bad mood, so they didn’t talk much.

After making a few dishes, Sun Chan said her goodbyes after the meal, not even staying for cake.

Seeing her out, Wang Guihua remarked with a smile, "Sun Chan was feeling unwell? | only spoke the truth. She's

really burdened with heavy thoughts."

Yang Hongying said nothing, extremely irritated by her mother-in-law.

Walking on the road, it was already dark, and the rain seemed never-ending. Sun Chan sighed, Gu Junming,

where are you?

Gu Junming was on the front line of

At this moment, he was discussing the relocation of downstream villagers with Yan Kai over a meal.

Gu Junming handed Yan Kai a thermos: "Have some."

Yan Kai gulped down shot water, nodding: "Fortunately, Sun Chan prepared this thermos, otherwise having

hot water would be impossible."

Gu Junming ignored that remark and continued, "We'll go over in the afternoon, checking every house. If we

encounter those absolutely refusing to leave, we'll have to forcefully relocate them."

Yan Kai said: "I don’t know what they're thinking. Before it’s about items and livestock, but are human lives not

valuable?"
