The Crippled Boss's Outstanding Substitute Wife

110.We Cannot Afford to

Lisa felt even more amused. “You were restless today because you saw the skills of the special police force, right?”

Big Buddha Zhao’s underground crime scene was not a small one. With the strength of the police station at East Street, it was naturally impossible to solve this. Thus, they specially requested assistance from the higher-ups.

Thinking of the valiant presence of the special police force as well as their capable skills and well-trained appearance, Hyunjin scratched his head in embarrassment. He replied, “Yeah.”

He was envious and eager, but he was too embarrassed to voice it out. A person like him would be a typical delinquent if he was born into a poor family. It was because of his good fortune that he was born into the Jeon family and became what others called a rich second-generation profligate. How could he be worthy of those valiant special police officers? He even felt that saying the word “envious” was an insult to the special police officers.

“Hyunjin, you’re great.” Lisa curled her lips and felt somewhat gratified in her heart. “A soldier who defends his country is the most worthy of respect. For you to have such a dream, it’s remarkable.”

“Sister-in-law, don’t you think that I have my head in the clouds?” Hyunjin’s eyes welled up with tears. The feeling of being trusted and affirmed by others was too good, it caused his eyes to redden slightly.

“Third Brother, you’ll definitely be able to do it.” Tzuyu encouraged him in a low voice and clenched her fists. “Third Brother, you’re super awesome!”

Hyunjin’s eyes reddened even more. He stretched out his hand and fiercely rubbed the top of Tzuyu’s head, unable to speak.

“It’s very hard to be a soldier. If you go, you cannot give up halfway.” Jungkook did not say anything to encourage him. His dark eyes fell on him coldly. Jungkook calmly said, “Our Jeon family cannot afford to humiliate ourselves like this.”

“I won’t!” Hyunjin’s face flushed red. “I’m not afraid of suffering!” There was a faint glimmer of hope in his heart.

Jungkook nodded wordlessly. He did not say whether he believed Hyunjin or not. Jungkook lowered his head and continued to flip through the documents in his hands. Seeing his reaction, Hyunjin’s bright eyes slowly dimmed. He was a little disappointed. Well, it’s to be expected… Hyunjin knew how unreliable he usually was, so it was normal for his big brother not to believe him…

“Tomorrow, I will ask Assistant Chen to accompany you and apply to leave the school.” Jungkook lowered his head and continued, “I will find someone to send you to the Military Academy. How far you can get there will depend on yourself. The family will not provide you with any additional help.” It was an unexpected surprise!

Even though he was hit in the head by the surprise, Hyunjin was still stunned on the spot and could not react for a while. It was Jieun who could not help but scream, “Big Brother! Ahhh! Congratulations, Third Brother! Big Brother has agreed!”

Tzuyu was also so excited that her little face was completely red. She clenched her fists and jumped on the spot twice. “Third Brother, you can do it. You can definitely do it. Third Brother, good luck!”

“I…” Hyunjin could no longer hold back his tears. However, the corners of his mouth could not help but curve upwards. “Thank you, Big Brother. Thank you, my sisters. I will definitely not embarrass the Jeon family!”

“Looking like a fool.” Eunwoo could not bear to look straight at him and turned his eyes away. He clenched his fists and lightly punched Hyunjin’s shoulder. “Don’t cry when you arrive at the Military Academy.”

“Get lost, I won’t!” Hyunjin was really excited. After he recovered from the surprise, he ran around the living room twice before he completely calmed down. This time, his family did not regard him disdainfully for being noisy. They were still immersed in being happy for him.

Eunwoo slumped back onto the sofa again. Looking at Hyunjin’s excited appearance, there was a smile on Eunwoo’s face. However, there was a faint hint of envy and turmoil in his eyes.

Lisa curled her lips into a smile and reached out to hold Jungkook’s big hand. Jungkook was reading the documents with a serious expression as if he was not affected by any of this at all. Jungkook paused slightly when she held his hand, and a faint smile also poured out from the bottom of his eyes.

On the other side, Yeonjun, who had gone to school early, did not manage to enter the school gate on time. When he reached the school gate, he was stopped by a woman who was dressed fashionably and elegantly.

Yeonjun tightened his grip on the shoulder strap of his school bag and stiffly looked at the person who had just arrived. After a long while, he softly called out, “Mom.”

Wu Tong sized up her biological son, her eyes filled with disdain and arrogance. She stood several steps away and asked from afar, “Yeonjun, why haven’t you come to see me recently?”

She had long been used to controlling this son of hers. At the same time, she was fearful because of his astonishing intelligence and gloomy personality. She was afraid that he would go crazy and hurt her one day.

In Wu Tong’s opinion, what she gave birth to was not a human, but a natural criminal. When she thought of the seven-year-old Yeonjun who had picked up the brush for the first time… He drew a horrifyingly distorted monster and painted the whole canvas scarlet red. Wu Tong felt disgusted and fear bubbled from the bottom of her heart.

It was also after that incident that she sent Yeonjun to the Jeon family.
