Chapter 827: 551

Looking at the elder, Mu Lin nodded, "I’ve adopted her." After a pause, he continued, "Grandpa, you mentioned on the phone previously that Mother wanted to go to Black Deep Forest to be with Father; so I thought, it would be good for Ruirui to go with her." Otherwise, he was actually still somewhat afraid his mother might suddenly lose hope.

Having a child by her side is a comfort; and he believed that his mother would definitely not have the heart to leave Ruirui there alone.

After all, that was Black Forest.

The elder’s brows were slightly furrowed, "But she’s still just a child." A place like Black Deep Forest was too dangerous, he thought for a moment and then said, "Actually, having an additional child in the Jing family is quite good." He didn’t mind whether the child was blood-related or not, as long as Mu Lin recognized her, she was his great-granddaughter.

However.

"Great-Grandpa doesn’t need to worry about Ruirui, Ruirui will take good care of Grandma," Ruirui said. In fact, Ruirui was still a bit worried, worried that the Jing family and Gong Muxue wouldn’t want her, and then she would never see Mu Lin again.

Such a small child, with sensitive thoughts.

"Ruirui is such a good girl." Jing Grandpa reached out and touched her head, smiling reassuringly at her and looking at Mu Lin, "Have you decided?" For some reason, he seemed to have come to terms with it.

"Yes." Mu Lin nodded and said, "This child, I want her to take the surname Gong." That is, the same as Gong Muxue; in fact, Mu Lin had not changed his surname back to this day.

Because he felt that the surname Mu was quite good.

"Grandpa has no objections." Jing Grandpa had always respected Mu Lin’s decisions; in fact, he could understand Mu Lin’s thoughts, and he had seen Gong Muxue’s situation over the past two months, which indeed was somewhat concerning.

For a lonely person, having a child by their side is indeed good; and Mu Lin, with an independent personality, could not really empathize with the situations of ordinary people.

Since both of the child’s parents were no longer there, this was actually not a bad situation for her; he believed her future would be better.

Moreover, the elder could tell that she was indeed a sensible child; this must be one of the reasons Mu Lin brought her back.

She was a child who was both endearing and poignant, even he couldn’t help but like her at first sight.

However, since she was the daughter recognized by Mu Lin, she was also his great-granddaughter.

After dinner, when Gong Muxue came back, he told her about his decision; initially, Gong Muxue did not agree, after all, she felt that such a place was not suitable for a child’s growth, but Mu Lin had grown up there, and this argument silenced her; yes, Mu Lin, so outstanding; besides, everyone in the Jing family had their own affairs, so there was no time to care for a child.

Therefore, Gong Muxue ultimately agreed; however, if Ruirui, oh no, now it could also be Gong Rui, did not adapt to life there, she would send her back immediately.

Mu Lin had no objections.

Eventually, Qiaozi and Ying Sun also joined them on their return.

Time in the Military Area passed swiftly, and it was already quietly August, the beginning of August, the hottest time during summer; training in the units became even more rigorous, especially for Jing Youlan and his people, who trained to the point of self-forgetfulness, sweating under the scorching sun.

Especially after Jing Youlan’s hand injury had healed; having missed half a month of training time, he worked extra hard to catch up.

Every Military Area, every unit, was working hard for this time’s selection for the Ying Sun.

They all wanted to get in.

After all, Ying Sun had not held open selections for new members in almost two years.

If you’re a soldier, you want to join Yan Sun; it was their dream, and being chosen would become a glory for their entire life; even if in their hearts, even if their deaths would go unremembered by anyone, with only a cold tombstone and the words "martyr", they were willing to sacrifice everything.

A soldier who doesn’t want to be a Special Forces Soldier is not a good soldier!

Time, with only half a month left; and at this time, Mu Lin, with an eight-month pregnancy, was quite large and had a bit of difficulty walking, so he had taken leave to rest at home.

When taking walks, he supported his waist; it was a relief that Mu Lin was tall, otherwise, he really would have looked like a round ball; each time he looked at his own stomach, Mu Lin felt it was incredible; the longer the time passed, the softer he felt at the core of his heart.

Of course, with such a big stomach, how could Jing Grandpa bear to let Mu Lin roam around in the unit risking injury, being pushed or falling down.
