Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder!-Chapter 386 - 15: Child-Rearing Strategy (15)

Li Shuning once thought, if Meng Ran knew he was going on a secret mission, he would have arranged for the original host to return to the Capital City or simply let her stay with the army. How could those things have happened?

Li Shuning herself had great respect for soldiers. They defend the country; without them, how could ordinary people live in peace and happiness? The original host’s father was a soldier, her husband was a soldier; she had this level of awareness.

However, between husband and wife, after five years, if the man comes back and expects the woman to be understanding, doesn’t it seem a bit much?

After all, neither the original host nor Li Shuning ever said anything against him.

Is it not allowed for one to be a bit angry?

Moreover, in the storyline, when he left, it was a separation by death. His end wasn’t good either; if things are still this way, will there be another tragedy? It’s something that needs to be prevented.

From the storyline, it was clear that the original host had deep feelings for this man. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have stubbornly stayed in this small town in the absence of any news.

Li Shuning felt a bit depressed. If the original host were here, wouldn’t she and this man have lived well together? If she wanted to complete the mission, would she have to accept this man? Was it time to bring the doppelgänger in? She definitely couldn’t do it herself; although she admired this man, she had no feelings for him. She was just an outsider, yet she couldn’t let go of the child.

When in a bad mood, it’s natural to let Meng Ran cool off.

When her mood improved someday, she could step back, and then bring in the doppelgänger.

Meng Ran never expected Li Shuning to forgive him immediately.

He took his clothes to the guest room.

Lying in the guest room, Meng Ran sighed. Though it was urgent at the time, it wasn’t that he couldn’t make even a single call. He just thought, he would be back in a few days, no need to make it seem like a life or death separation.

He didn’t expect to be trapped there for so long, and yet this caused Shuning so much pain.

Meng Ran truly felt very guilty in his heart.

In the days that followed, Meng Ran witnessed the full capabilities of Li Shuning.

When it came to the child, she seemed invincible.

For their daughter’s long hair, she always styled it variously, tying it up in different ways. During the ten days he stayed at home, he didn’t see the same style twice.

The meals for their daughter were made with special care, often crafted into various shapes like cat faces, big suns, and little trees. He was dazzled by it all.

The food looked delicious, not just aesthetically pleasing. In any case, he saw Xiao Bao eating heartily without any need for adult feeding.

Through these details, it was evident that Li Shuning was very attentive to the child and raised her well.

Half a month passed, and Li Shuning remained indifferent. Meng Ran continued to be sincere, attentive, and doing his utmost to please her.

Seeing this, Li Shuning ultimately gave in.

One day, after Meng Ran left, she got into the hovercar and let the doppelgänger replace her.

The doppelgänger looked exactly like Li Shuning; neither Meng Ran nor Xiao Bao noticed anything amiss.

Of course, the doppelgänger’s eyes had emotions that Li Shuning did not possess, which Li Shuning had instructed her to simulate.

Finding that the "doppelgänger" no longer rejected him, Meng Ran was overjoyed, and that night, after Xiao Bao slept, he rolled into bed with the doppelgänger.

Li Shuning covered her face; this man had been away for five years. Given his feelings for the original host, it was likely he’d been repressing himself for five years too. Luckily, she escaped quickly.

It’s just a pity that the original host was no longer there.

Xiao Bao was growing older, and Meng Ran had returned, giving Xiao Bao a name: Meng Si.

There was no kindergarten in the small town, so previously, Li Shuning taught Xiao Bao to read, to sing, and such.

After discussing it, they decided that Li Shuning should first take Meng Si back to the Capital City.

Before leaving, the doppelgänger invited close friends from the town to their home for a meal and gave away things they couldn’t take with them.

Though the items were old, everyone knew it wasn’t because they looked down on them. It was precisely due to their good relationships that they weren’t concerned with such things.

Moreover, despite being old items, they were better than anything in their homes.

Everything was packed properly; nothing was left behind, as once the doppelgänger and child left, Meng Ran would stay with the army.

Because Meng Ran could not leave immediately, Li Shuning came out again, taking the child back to the Capital City, spending a small reunion time, before releasing the doppelgänger again.

Because Meng Ran was transferred back to the Capital City.

Despite his youth, Meng Ran held a high position and so naturally garnered envy.

As in the story, there were rival forces with ambitions clashing with Meng Ran, never in agreement with him.

However, Meng Ran had no weaknesses.

He treated the doppelgänger very, very well, remembering the debts from before and the five years of unwavering loyalty this woman had given him. He was deeply moved and dared not forget.

Meng Ran held much respect and love for the doppelgänger.

No such thing as being tempted by beauty existed.

Without Tao Xiaoxiao, there was no incident of the child being purposely taken out.

Meng Si was enrolled in the kindergarten within the family quarters, always the most notable presence in her class.

If anyone intended to kidnap from the family quarters, they had better think of the consequences.

The family lived well until they slowly aged.

The doppelgänger never got pregnant, so Meng Ran only had one daughter, Meng Si. Though some whispered behind his back, suggesting that Meng Ran keep a woman outside, that if she got pregnant and had a son, he could bring the boy home. The woman wouldn’t need to come home, naturally avoiding any problems.

But Meng Ran never wavered.

Moreover, he gradually distanced himself from those who gave such suggestions.

Bringing a child back wouldn’t cause disorder at home?

Such nonsense, those people had ill intentions.

He knew what he truly wanted and also knew what things should not be touched.

Several times, he distinctly saw that Li Shuning was waiting for him to make a mistake and then leave with the child.

Even though Meng Ran felt a bit puzzled, this was indeed the truth.

Because several times, when Li Shuning missed Xiao Bao, she’d come out during the day to reunite with Xiao Bao.

Being herself, naturally, her eyes had a different look.

The doppelgänger, instructed by Li Shuning to fully simulate the original host’s feelings, naturally gazed at Meng Ran affectionately.

When she emerged herself, the resentment of the child being taken away, and the resentment of being unable to be with the child, made her very displeased at the sight of Meng Ran.

While in the hovercar, she naturally knew of the little plots those people made behind the scenes.

If Meng Ran really did something, regardless of how she felt about the person, she would have a reason to take Meng Si away.

However, Meng Ran did nothing, and still treated the doppelgänger very, very well.

In her heart, Li Shuning was somewhat happy; at least the original host’s heartfelt dedication didn’t face betrayal.
