Zhou Yinchun blushed deeply, wishing she could disappear into the ground. But she was still terrified from the earlier remark, and her legs were too weak to get up.

They could only stand there and be pointed at and gossiped about.

Meanwhile, Yu Yao was sitting at a table in the cafeteria, slurping up large mouthfuls of rice noodles.

Lingshui sour rice noodles are made from fine rice flour, giving them a unique flavor that is sour, crisp, and refreshing.

It also contains many unique condiments, such as dried shrimp and squid. Lu Ze said that it also contains local yellow lantern chili peppers, which make it taste fresh, fragrant, spicy and refreshing.

Seeing that she was slightly sweating, Lu Ze opened a coconut for her.

After finishing her noodles, Yu Yao drank the sweet coconut water, feeling extremely satisfied with her body, mind, and taste buds.

Aunt Ge watched the two of them from the side, her smile never stopping.

She had previously worried that their marriage was based on an engagement and that there wasn't much affection between them, but now she's relieved.

After observing her along the way, it's clear that Yu Yao hasn't grasped the concept yet.

As for Commander Lu, he's probably already deeply involved. It's just that he doesn't seem to realize it himself?

After Zhou Yinchun's incident, the military families' attitudes toward Yu Yao changed considerably.

Some people like her personality, finding her courageous and opinionated, and actively seek to be close to her. Others, however, find her intolerant and too fierce, and distance themselves from her, avoiding her altogether.

Yu Yao didn't care and was very satisfied with the current result.

At least the military families greeted her with smiles, and regardless of their private behavior, they were all polite on the surface, which was enough.

The ship sailed at sea for almost two days and one night, and finally arrived at its destination on the afternoon of the third day.

Yu Yao stood on the deck and looked out. In the distance, she could see a beautiful silver beach with rows of coconut trees growing on it.

The dock was filled with fishing boats of all sizes, and fishermen were unloading their catch, carrying boxes of various seafood. The larger and more expensive items were picked up by the purchasing station staff, while the rest were bought by dock workers and military dependents who were waiting there.

The ship docked, and the soldiers set up a gangplank.

Lu Ze went down first and handed his hand to Yu Yao, saying, "Be careful."

Yu Yao took his hand and disembarked. Standing on the dock, she looked at the tall trees around her and the flocks of seabirds and coconut trees in the distance, filled with anticipation.

A joyful male voice came from afar, "Mom, Lu Ze, I'm here."

Yu Yao looked up and saw a tall man in military uniform parking a jeep on the side of the road, closing the door and walking towards her.

Ge Jinhua walked over, her eyes a little moist: "You brat, you've grown taller, but you're also darker and thinner."

Qin Ye hugged Ge Jinhua, then walked towards Lu Ze.

The two patted each other on the shoulder to greet each other. After patting each other, Qin Ye smiled and looked at Yu Yao: "You must be Yu Yao. I'm Qin Ye. You look pretty much the same as when you were a child. You haven't changed much."

"Hello, Political Commissar Qin," Yu Yao greeted him with a smile.

Qin Ye took the luggage from Ge Jinhua's hands. "Sun Yu made a delicious meal at home to welcome you. Come on, get in the car."

As soon as they left, the military families on the dock erupted in excitement. Within half an hour, everyone in the military compound knew that Commander Lu had returned.

He also brought back a delicate and charming wife.
