[Set in the 1970s + Space + Broken Engagement + Golden Finger + Family Life + Attractive Leads]
After transmigrating to the 1970s, the first hurdle Xue Miaoyun faced was having her engagement...
Chapter 25: One Thought
"good!"
"Ah?" Xue Miaoyun was confused by this sudden good news.
"I will repay you for saving my life. Okay." Cang Ling looked at Xue Miaoyun very seriously. "Comrade Xue, I'm Cang Ling, 27 years old, from the capital, and the deputy commander of the Iron Fist Regiment of the H Brigade of the T Division. I don't smoke or drink, and I've never liked any woman except you. I want to date you with the intention of getting married."
Cang Ling's eyes were very deep, but they no longer had the coldness and arrogance of the past. It is somewhat clear and hot.
Xue Miaoyun felt a little nervous and at a loss when she was looked at. To be honest, she had been confessed to many times in her previous life, but none of them made her heart rate stop, her head feel dizzy, and her ability to think seemed to have disappeared like this.
“I, you…”
"I think you like me too, why can't you give me a chance." Cang Ling's voice was gentle with a hint of coaxing.
"I know you have plans for your future, and marriage may not be what you want most at the moment. But..." Cang Ling glanced at her.
"Your appearance is there, and you can't hide it for long. There are more ugliness in this world than you can imagine. A husband in a high position of power can save you a lot of trouble." The man said in a calm tone, as if he was saying that the weather was really nice today.
Although I know that what the other party said is true, it still makes me feel very uncomfortable.
"You are not the only one in a high position of power. Why should I choose you?" Xue Miaoyun said.
Cang Ling smiled, the admiration in his eyes no longer concealed. The man was gentle and affectionate, and the way he looked at Xue Miaoyun made people feel that they had been in love for a thousand years at first sight.
"Because I admire Miss Miaoyun and fell in love with her at first sight." The deep and charming voice touched people's hearts.
Xue Miaoyun was also confused for a moment. A man like Cang Ling was too attractive to girls.
But Xue Miaoyun has received the education of a modern independent woman. Even if she has never eaten pork, she has seen pigs run.
I know that once I get married, I will have to face a series of issues such as family and children. Especially for military marriages, you have to take care of both home and outside life. In this day and age, higher requirements are placed on women after they become mothers. The mainstream view is to sacrifice everything for the sake of children. Xue Miaoyun really doesn't have the courage to get married.
In her previous life, she was a non-marriageist and even in her thirties she had no plans to get married or have children.
Now she doesn't have it either. There are still two years before the college entrance examination. If she gets married, when will she have a child? She has no interest in going to college with a bulging belly.
There is also the issue of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Cang Ling doesn't look like a child from an ordinary family. Thinking about the complicated things in a wealthy family, Xue Miaoyun immediately backed off.
Thinking of this, my brain, which had been a little heated because of the attractiveness of the man, suddenly became sober as if a basin of cold water was poured over it.
"Love at first sight is all about beauty, Deputy Captain Cang, I have no plans to get married, thank you for your kindness." Xue Miaoyun touched his face, still trying to find a way to cover it up. Stick with it for two years, come on.
Cang Ling lowered his eyes. He felt that the other party was loose just now. How come...
"...Can I ask why?"
Of course Xue Miaoyun couldn't tell the other party that the college entrance examination would be resumed in less than two years. Based on this, she has a series of plans, and marriage and children will affect her plans.
"I am still young and don't have the confidence to be a good military wife and mother."
Liar!
Cang Ling felt upset. This girl dared to come to the army alone to ask for the token, dared to jump into the water to save him, and dared to live alone. Being young is simply an excuse.
Still a very perfunctory excuse.
"I know you are young and restless, but your marriage will definitely be on the agenda after you go back this time. Although your parents died early, you still have elders in your family, and they will definitely introduce you to a marriage. Even if it is for your house, I'm afraid you won't have too much peace. And once you delay in getting married, rumors about you and Song Zhuangguo will spread like wildfire." Cang Ling is not a young master who knows nothing. He knows very well how powerful the gossips in the countryside are.
The corner of Xue Miaoyun's mouth twitched. She had forgotten this. Her breaking off of the engagement had been planned for a long time. If her last name wasn't Xue and if Seventh Grandfather hadn't determined that the marriage was due to the Song family's dishonesty, the rumors would have been even worse.
She didn't care much about these rumors, but if someone said that she was delaying marriage because she still had feelings for Song Zhuangguo, she would be sick to death.
"I don't know what you are afraid of," Cang Ling looked at her steadily, "but I can promise that after marriage, you can still do whatever you want. It's okay if you don't want to join the army, and it's okay if you don't want to have children."
Xue Miaoyun looked at Cang Ling in surprise, and then was burned by the burning look in his eyes.
"Hehe, anything is fine, then why are you getting married?" The credibility of a man like Cang Ling can be fully trusted, and he disdains to lie.
"...I've lived for twenty-seven years and this is the first time my heart has moved. I don't want to miss it." Cang Ling is not very good at expressing his feelings. Years of military life have made him accustomed to being straightforward most of the time.
But Cang Ling has no problem with his IQ and EQ, and he knows what to say to give himself extra points at this time.
"I didn't get married to have a wife and a few children." Cang Ling didn't know what to say.
"I believe it. With your conditions, if you want to get married, you won't wait until this age." In traditional Chinese culture, starting a family is the key to success. If a man doesn't get married, it's like he hasn't grown up, which actually has some impact on his career. It will make people feel that you are unreliable.
"Yes," Cang Ling was somewhat happy, looking at her with burning eyes, and said firmly: "I don't want to settle. My wife is someone I know is the one when I see her, and she will be my wife for the rest of my life. If not, I would rather not marry in my life."
Xue Miaoyun was shocked. This, this guy is a love saint. Is he serious? But if he is not serious, this person's children may become useless.
It is said that sincerity is the ultimate skill, and Xue Miaoyun felt like she was a little bit defeated.
“I, you…”
Cang Ling knelt on one knee, his eyes level with Xue Miaoyun.
"I won't force you, I just hope you can give me a chance, a chance to protect you."
"…I still have school to do back home…"
"It's enough for tuition. I have money here."
Xue Miaoyun stared at the passbook in front of her in astonishment. No, what's the point of carrying this thing with you?
Cang Ling stuffed the passbook into Xue Miaoyun's hands and said, "Here are my savings over the years. I don't have much use for money in the army. Take it and buy whatever you want. No need to save money."
Xue Miaoyun felt it was a little hot.
"I will file a marriage report. Can you wait for a few days? I will go back with you and hold the wedding there. I will ask my comrades there to take care of you. I guarantee that no one will come to trouble you then."
