Dudu's Diary

"So, Dad, is it your job to help others every day?"

"Yes, Dad has to help others solve their difficulties." In order to help his son better understand what he does every day, Yuen Long added, "Dad usually has to train and fight to make himself stronger, so that he can better help others."

Although Dudu doesn"t quite understand what training and fighting are, it doesn"t prevent him from realizing that his father has a very powerful job, and he already admired his father very much.

Even Wu Jing, who heard it in the kitchen, was very curious and asked Yu Shanshan quietly, "Is Dudu"s father particularly good? What position does he have and what rank?"

"I"m sure is certain, but as for his rank..." Yu Shanshan thought about it and said, "He was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel four years ago. At that time, he seemed to be at a deputy regiment level, but now I don"t know."

"Oh, my G.o.d, he was already so good four years ago? Shanshan, you can do it!" Wu Jing has completely forgotten all kinds of expletives about Dudu"s father before, and now there is nothing left in her mind but admiration.

Yu Shanshan felt that Yuen Long now has two fans.

When the two men came out of the kitchen, Yuen Long picked up Dudu and said, "I"ll take Dudu down to try his plane."

This proposal is exactly what Wu Jing wants. She still has a lot of things to ask.

After the father and son left, Wu Jing grabbed Yu Shanshan"s face and raised her eyebrows, "Dudu Dad is really a smart man. He knows I have something to ask you. He is deliberately leaving room for us to talk."

Yu Shanshan didn"t want to talk to her, she patted her paw and sat back on the sofa.

Wu Jing couldn"t help slapping her fat b.u.t.tocks and making a crisp. "Can you please take care of your image? You and Dudu used to be the only ones in the family. Now that Dudu"s father is back, you have to be more careful."

Yu Shanshan looked at her with complaint, "What"s the matter with you? Why do you want me to pay attention to my image? You used to say that he"s not a good, but a sc.u.mbag, he was a bad guy, and you said that if you caught him, you will straighten him out. And what happens? Did you even do it?"

Wu Jing smacked her lips. "Back then I didn"t know who Dudu"s father was. I thought he was the second-generation type of guy with money. That he lied to you because of his appearance, that he"s irresponsible for abandoning you and Dudu. But now I know it"s not true."

Yu Shanshan sat up and squinted at her. "Even if he didn"t know Dudu existed, how do you know that he didn"t deceived me because of my young age and then let me lose my mind and  heart and carrying my baby?"

Wu Jing pointed to her own eyes. "Forget it. I believe what I see when I look at people"s eyes. Dudu"s father is so calm and resolute, full of strong hormonal flavor. How can such a person deceive you? If he really wants to deceive a little girl, he can just take his pick from a horde, it would be his loss if he deliberately chose to deceive you"

"Wu Jing! I want to break up with you!" Yu Shanshan was furious. "What do you mean deceiving me is his loss? Am I that bad? Are you still on my side? You defected too fast!"

Wu Jing thought carefully, she did changed her mind immediately when she saw Dudu"s father enter the door, as if she had changed sides a little quickly.

Wu Jing felt that she could be excused for doing so. "Ah, seriously, Dudu"s father has a strong sense of integrity, you can see at a glance that he has the kind of temperament that"s very reliable and definitely not a bad person. This is amazing."

Yu Shanshan did not find it amazing. She had a crush on him at first sight, precisely because of his upright demeanor that was different from most dudes. He always had this ability, just take one look at him, and you can succ.u.mb to his eyes and follow him with peace of mind.

"What"s so magical about that? He came from military family, where all members are soldiers. Their main purpose is to train hard, protect and serve the country. He was brought into the barracks for training since he was ten years old and then he served in the special forces for many years. So of course he will grow up like that"

"Oh, my G.o.d, special forces." Wu Jing said, so he is a real soldier. She became so excited when she heard that and she shook Shanshan"s arm, "Your man is still the king of soldiers. You have found such a wonderful thing. Yu Shanshan, you"re so terrible, why haven"t I encountered this luck."

Yu Shanshan snorted triumphantly, "You used to say that I had no brain, but now you say that I am terrible. You"re hypocritical."

Wu Jing smiled, "That"s because I didn"t know you were looking for such a person. What kind of woman doesn"t want to be moved by this kind of man? So you must win him over as soon as possible."

Yu Shanshan puckered her mouth and could not look directly at Wu Jing"s ugly face at the moment.

Wu Jing suddenly became serious and said to her, "I"m telling you seriously, although I don"t know what kind of past you two have, but he had found you now. Look at how attentive he is to Dudu, so please give me a good job. Try holding people in the palm of your hand just this once, and don"t foolishly let them go."

Wu Jing looked up and down at Yu Shanshan with a tone that hated iron but failed to produce steel. "You have to continue to lose weight for me. Although your figure is terrible now and I doubt he would abandon you easily because Dudu is present. But that doesn"t mean you can just let yourself go. You have to pursue yourself."

Yu Shanshan shriveled her mouth and buried her head in the sofa, muttering to herself: "What do you mean by pursuit? I think people only want sons, not wives."

"What are you whispering about?" Wu Jing didn"t hear what she was saying.

"Nothing." Yu Shanshan didn"t want to share with Wu Jing the stupid things she had done before. If she said it, she would feel humiliated and Wu Jing would definitely scold her.

Yu Shanshan pinched the fat on her belly and asked faintly, "Do you think I am really ugly like this? Is it very unappetizing for men to see it?"

Wu Jing: "What"s the matter? In the past, you used to fish for three days and dry the net for two days to lose weight, but now you"ve been seen by Dudu"s father, you suddenly don"t feel confident?"

Yu Shanshan smiled bitterly and exposed her inferiority complex to Wu Jing for the first time. "In fact, I"ve always been afraid of being seen by him. I don"t want him to see me like this. I had hoped that he"ll always think of me as the beautiful person I was before, but... I really didn"t expect him to suddenly appear in front of me. I was completely unprepared when he saw me."

The smile at the corners of Wu Jing"s mouth also disappeared. She understands Yu Shanshan"s current mood. No woman wants to expose her worst side to the man she likes. It"s false to say that she doesn"t care. How can she not care? Even if Yu Shanshan has always been a nerve, she can"t ignore this.

Wu Jing sighed and suddenly asked, "Shanshan, you like him very much."

It"s a statement, not a question.

Yu Shanshan did not speak, still burying her face.

Wu Jing did not need her to answer, because she knew that she must have liked him so much that she was willing to give up everything she had for him and give birth to Dudu.

She witnessed her giving up and losing.

Yu Shanshan did not speak for a long time, and when Wu Jing was about to think that she wouldn"t answer, she suddenly gave a low "Uh-huh".

"I like him very much. I really like him."

Wu Jing heard this whisper.

Wu Jing"s heart shook heavily, shocked by the fact that she was secretly hiding such hot feelings under the appearance of her nervousness.

"Then you ..."  Wu Jing wanted to ask her why she had lived alone with Dudu for so many years without looking for him, but she swallowed it on the tip of her tongue and changed her statement to, "...Then work hard, and since you like him, don"t let it go."

Yu Shanshan rubbed her eyes in a tone of unprecedented frustration, "But he doesn"t like me."

Wu Jing grasped her hand and shook it comfortably. "Do you feel inferior because of your figure? You listen to me. Although you are not good-looking now, you have given birth to his child, he cannot be irresponsible. You can still rely on him, and then hurry up to lose weight. Once you get back to your former appearance, he will definitely like you."

Yu Shanshan shook her head with pursed lips and said gloomily, "No, I meant that he didn"t like me even back when I was still good looking."

"Ah? He didn"t like you looked like that?" Wu Jing has nothing to say now.

Yu Shanshan used to be a well-deserved school flower of the Imperial Dance Academy. The type of beauty that didn"t make women feel envious or jealous when they saw her. Wu Jing once thought that even if Shan Shan had a problematic att.i.tude, she those faults are easily tolerated because of her Face Value.

In fact, she thought that Yu Shanshan"s temper was really bad, it"s just like heaven and earth, but there are still a lot boys who liked her back then, and countless people have chased and confessed their love behind her every day.

Her appearance was simply unfair back then because she was obviously heavily favored by G.o.d

But surprisingly now, she has just been told that there was a man who could withstand the Shanshan"s beauty and didn"t like her.

Wu Jing stammered, "Well, if he doesn"t like you, then how come Dudu exists?"

Is it a one-night stand? Did the overlord Shanshan bend the bow? Or did she gave him aphrodisiac?

Wu Jing"s mind instantly filled with countless Yu Shanshan"s unethical ways of dealing with Yuen Long.

Yu Shanshan didn"t know that she had been secretly painted as a bully and hooligan by Wu Jing. She was silent for a long time before sharing the sad story, "I took the initiative to chase him, and he was so entangled with me that he had no choice but to......reluctantly allow me to be his girlfriend."

Yu Shanshan felt very humiliated. She once dominated the Imperial Dance Academy, but the ballet fairy fell under Yuan Lang"s pants. She went down to chase him, and finally... in the end, she only got her girlfriend status because she begged for it.

From the beginning to the end, she was never wanted.

开挂 or 開掛 Kai gua. it means cheating during a game via a cheat code or cartridge. As an internet slang, when a person achieves an amazing result, it is thought that it was obtained through cheating because of being incredible. It does not necessarily mean that what the person obtained is through cheating so sometimes it"s a compliment. But since Wu Jing mentioned G.o.d, hehehehe~ Life"s not fair lmao

霸王硬上弓 bàwáng yìng shàng gōng. The original meaning was to describe someone who forced another to do something forcibly. Modern usage is to implicitly describe one party forcing the other to have s.e.x.

拜倒在他的石榴裤下 bàidǎo zài tā de shíliú kù xià. This term generally refers to "being willing to surrender and indulge a person because of their looks or charms."

Monique: I"m currently translating another novel. Seems like a historical BL, but I"m not so sure yet. It"s way harder because the characters are all speaking in idioms and third person. Plus add in the honorifics so I"m translating in snail"s pace. Might release 2 chapters....next week? Hopefully my work is understandable.
