Without any imagination, Gu Qingbei had a playful smile on his face.

It was only after he entered the house and sat down that Dong Yixing realized what he had said. He felt embarrassed and at a loss as to what to do.

Fortunately, no one teased him about this, which made him feel a lot better.

Dong Yixing was on vacation for two months and just happened to pass by here so he decided to come and take a look.

He and Gu Qingbei have had less contact since they left their original unit. Everyone has their own things to do, and when they contact each other, it is usually because there is something going on.

It was only when he met Gu Qingbei last time that he learned that Gu Qingbei had been transferred to the west in the past two years. The previous two had stayed in the south for many years, and they must have been uncomfortable adapting to the new environment.

"Are you planning to go back to your hometown? Isn't there anyone left at home?"

At the dinner table, the men all raised their wine glasses, and the women sat together drinking soup, not wanting to join them.

Dong Yixing paused, but didn't want to hide it. He said unconfidently, "I'm chasing someone. Her name is Zhang Qingzhu. She's a dancer in the art troupe. She..."

He wanted to ask Gu Qingbei if he knew him, but he knew it was impossible.

Gu Qingbei was indeed confused. He knew it was a lesbian's name. How could he know her?

However, Han Siyue, who was sitting opposite, was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had misheard.

"Zhang Qingzhu? Zhang Qingzhu from the art troupe?"

Dong Yixing's eyes lit up. Does anyone know him?

"Yes, do you know her? She came here to perform with the art troupe these past two days. I received the message to come here, and I thought Lao Gu and the others were here, so I came here as soon as I had a day off."

Lu Zhengming raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Dong Yixing would still be able to chase girls one day. It was really like the sun rising in the west.

When they were in the same army, the three of them were the best friends, but Dong Yixing had no interest in girls at all.

In her eyes, there is no difference between men and women. She holds her gun all day long, either resting or practicing shooting.

It's only been a few years, and people have changed so much.

As I get older, the ideas I had when I was young have long been forgotten.

It should be said that it is a period of time and a state of mind. Looking back on my past self, I always feel that I was extremely naive at that time. How could I have such naive and unreasonable ideas?

But am I not also a childish person in my future eyes?

Gu Qingbei was too lazy to tease him, but this matter could be a big deal or a small one.

Active-duty military personnel must submit a relationship report and a marriage report before getting married.

What's more, both of them are soldiers, so they cannot get along with each other in an unclear manner in private.

Of course it's fine if no one pursues the matter, but once someone reports it, it will not be a trivial matter.

"What are you thinking? If you like her, report your relationship first. Otherwise, if people find out about your relationship, you might not be in trouble, but she will definitely be the one being killed to scare the monkeys.

The military leadership has always been worried about soldiers privately teaching others and affecting the atmosphere of the unit, and has long been looking for an opportunity to rectify this. Don't rush into danger."

Dong Yixing felt nervous, but then he felt relieved when he thought that he hadn't done anything yet and would definitely not implicate the other party.

He met Xia Qingzhu while watching a performance, but he was feeling conflicted at that time.

The other person's shining image on the stage kept appearing in his mind.

But I am just a rough guy who only knows how to practice fighting and shooting, and I really don't have the confidence to attract her attention.

But the more they met, the more restless he became. He didn't have the courage to talk to her and could only glance at her from afar in the crowd.

But with the departure of the art troupe, Dong Yixing felt that his life had become boring, and his former love of shooting also became uninteresting.

Lying on the lawn at night, I thought about what had happened over the past twenty years and how I had escaped death on the battlefield many times.

He always knew that one day he might fall on the battlefield, at the hands of the enemy's gun.

But maybe he will be lucky and stay in the army safely until retirement.

Especially as he grew older, he began to lead troops in training and rarely went on missions.

His mission was to bring more sharpshooters into the army.

Not having to go to the battlefield for missions also means that he doesn't have to worry about his own safety all the time, and doesn't have to worry about not being able to come back.

Does this also mean that I can at least give her a stable life?

The inner torment he felt during this period prompted him to come here with the art troupe.

He didn't know what to do next. He wanted to pursue Xia Qingzhu, but he also wanted to win her consent.

It's impossible that he would secretly report the relationship to his superiors before they even knew each other, right?

But too much private contact is not good either, it makes him feel very conflicted.

"So what should I do now? Ask a leader to act as a matchmaker and introduce us to each other? I...

She doesn't even know me yet, and I just followed her here. How can I act like a scoundrel?"

He was worried that Xia Qingzhu would think too much. What if the first impression was not good?

Han Siyue thought this was a good opportunity. She was worried that her friend might be matched up with someone else. Wouldn't it be better if she could find someone she liked rather than someone who was ten or twenty years older than her?

Moreover, she hadn't seen her former comrades for a long time, so she could take this opportunity to invite a few of her good friends to her home to visit.

"Xia Qingzhu and I have a pretty good relationship. We haven't seen each other for a while. I plan to invite them to my house for dinner in a few days. Sister Xiaoxue should also come. I'll introduce you to each other."

Lu Zhengming didn't expect that his wife was thinking of being a matchmaker, but he didn't object.

It would be a good thing if Dong Yixing could find someone he likes.

Except for those who died on the battlefield, all of their former comrades have already married. Dong Yixing is 30 years old, which is not young at all. If he continues like this, he will be single. Which girl would be willing to marry such an old man?
