When Secretary Zhang saw the look in his eyes, her legs went weak.

Good heavens, if he knew Lin Yu had a boyfriend, and such a ruthless one at that, he wouldn't dare to fawn over her.

Li Yonglin realized he had made a foolish move and quickly tried to smooth things over: "Comrade Gu, since she's Comrade Lin Yu's girlfriend, we're on the same side now."

Gu Yunze intimidated Secretary Zhang, who was no match for him, then his expression changed, and he saluted Li Yonglin:

"Good morning, leader. This is Gu Yunze, commander of the First Regiment of the Beicheng Military Region."

When Li Yonglin heard that he was a regimental commander and saw how young he was, he knew that this man's strength should not be underestimated.

"Commander Gu is truly a promising young man."

Secretary Zhang, being pragmatic, quickly shut her mouth and followed behind her leader without saying another word.

At this time, it's best to be invisible.

Lin Yu felt a little guilty: "I'm sorry, boss, I didn't tell you I had a boyfriend before."

This was also an explanation to Gu Yunze that Li Yonglin was unaware of his existence, which was why he had the idea of ​​matchmaking.

Gu Yunze naturally understood, and he wouldn't misunderstand Lin Yu.

Li Yonglin smiled and said, "It's okay, I understand. Girls are often shy about saying things."

Lin Yu nodded shyly.

Actually, she wasn't embarrassed; she just felt there was no need to say it.

She thought that it was enough to handle things officially.

She never expected that leaders these days would still have the habit of playing matchmaker, and she was rather slow to catch on.

Everyone assumed that Secretary Zhang's overtures on the train were just ordinary interactions between colleagues.

This led to such a misunderstanding.

Once both sides had explained things clearly, the atmosphere improved considerably.

Gu Yunze: "I'll take you there. Where are you going?"

Lin Yu didn't know either, and looked at Li Yonglin.

Li Yonglin waved his hand: "We have a car from our unit to pick you up. Comrade Lin Yu, would you like to stay at the guesthouse tonight, or...?"

Lin Yu nodded: "Yes, I'll stay at the guesthouse you arranged."

Li Yonglin then told her the location, and she could check in directly with the letter of introduction.

He added, "We'll go back to our unit ourselves, you can come back tomorrow."

Gu Yunze came to pick him up at the station, so Li Yonglin definitely had to give the young man a chance to get to know him.

So Lin Yu parted ways with them and got into Gu Yunze's car.

The two have kept in touch, but haven't seen each other for a long time.

As soon as Gu Yunze got into the car, he held onto Lin Yu's hand tightly.

The two looked at each other, their longing for one another evident in their eyes.

Gu Yunze released her hand and slowly embraced her, his voice hoarse: "Xiaoyu, it's been a long time."

Lin Yu leaned on his shoulder: "Yeah, it's been a long time. How have you been?"

"I am fine."

Gu Yunze's job was unusual, and there were many things he couldn't tell her.

However, Lin Yu's job allowed her to talk about anything, which resulted in Gu Yunze knowing what had happened to Lin Yu in the past two years.

Lin Yu, however, knew nothing about his work.

Lin Yu knew what he was thinking: "Don't feel guilty, I understand, we understand each other."

The two had been in a long-distance relationship, which Lin Yu knew was very unusual in the eyes of people nowadays.

However, Gu Yunze was able to accept this kind of relationship and never mentioned asking her to give up her job and come to Beicheng.

Of course, even if he brought it up, Lin Yu wouldn't agree.

Lin Yu also supported his transfer to the Beicheng Military Region at the time.

Both of them are striving in their respective fields and never allow the other to compromise for them.

This is what mutual respect and mutual understanding mean.

Therefore, Lin Yu said, "We are true revolutionary partners."

The two hugged and kissed for a while, not daring to cross the line, and then Gu Yunze drove off.

First, he accompanied Lin Yu to the guesthouse to drop off her things, and then he asked her, "Want to come to my house?"

Now that they were in Beicheng, Lin Yu naturally wanted to visit Gu Yunze's parents.

She took out the gift her grandmother had prepared and then dragged Gu Yunze to the department store to buy things.

What do your parents like?

Gu Yunze said, "Just buy something casual, don't spend too much."

Lin Yu shook her head: "How you feel when you go to my house is how I feel when I go to your house."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yunze's face lit up with joy, his eyebrows dancing with delight, clearly showing his pleasant mood.

He went to Lin Yu's house nervously, fearing that the Lin family would be dissatisfied.

Lin Yu was also nervous, which means she cares about me.

Lin Yu didn't have time to pay attention to his little schemes. First, she bought a bottle of wine, then she bought milk powder and biscuits.

After paying the bill, both of them came out carrying large bags and small packages.

Gu Yunze drove Lin Yu to the military compound. Sitting in the car and looking at the place, Lin Yu couldn't help but feel even more nervous.

Besides the old man guarding the gate, there were also soldiers standing guard outside.

The courtyard is a separate courtyard, which looks similar to the residential area outside.

Children were running and jumping on the road, and the atmosphere of daily life eased Lin Yu's tension.

Gu Yunze drove directly to his doorstep, where Li Huizhu, dressed in brand-new clothes and with her hair neatly combed, was standing at the door to greet them.

This was her son's girlfriend's first visit, and she was quite nervous.

Before the car door even opened, Lin Yu saw the woman standing at the door. She looked dignified and elegant, and her appearance was somewhat similar to Gu Yunze's.

Lin Yu then guessed her identity.

She quickly opened the door and got out of the car, greeting the other person: "Hello, Auntie, I'm Lin Yu."

Li Huizhu watched as her son's car pulled up in front of her, and a beautiful young woman got out. She had fair skin, a round face, and two dimples when she smiled.

She felt an instant connection with the girl the moment she saw her.

"Hey, Xiaoyu, I'm Yunze's mom. I'm so glad to finally meet you."

Seeing how enthusiastic she was towards him, Lin Yu smiled and said, "I genuinely like you."

"Auntie, I've always wanted to visit you, and now I finally have the chance."

Li Huizhu was even happier to hear this; the child was thinking of her.

Li Huizhu was initially somewhat dissatisfied that her son had never met his girlfriend, even though they had been dating for so many years.

But this dissatisfaction will vanish, replaced by fondness.

This child is beautiful, articulate, and poised; she's a wonderful girl.

Li Huizhu pulled Lin Yu into the house, and Gu Yunze, ignored by the two women, had no choice but to follow behind with his things.

Lin Yu was pulled to sit down by Li Huizhu, her face beaming with smiles.

Seeing what Gu Yunze brought in, she quickly stood up and said, "Auntie, these are things my grandma asked me to bring for you and Uncle. There are also some things we just bought. I hope you don't mind."

She was very frank; she said what it was.

Although the things I bought were expensive, they couldn't compare to the love and care in the things Grandma prepared.

When Li Huizhu saw this, she realized that Grandma Lin was very kind and had prepared food.

The dried mushrooms are all wild from the mountains, and many of the varieties are completely unfamiliar to me.

Homemade cured pork and salted duck eggs, plus a few cans of pineapple.

"Oh dear, you've gone to so much trouble, old lady. These are all very good things."
