Chen Shuning wasn't sure whether to call herself lucky or unlucky.
Her misfortune was that, having had a stable job and a prosperous life, she lost her life in a fire at a newly opened la...
The next morning, Chen Shuning woke up hungry and glanced at his watch; it was only 5:30.
Thinking that He Chaoyang must not have eaten enough last night, she quickly got up, dressed, and went out to see if she could buy anything to eat.
But as soon as she opened the door, she saw that tall figure standing in the hallway.
He Chaoyang went out early to buy breakfast. In order to make sure that Chen Shuning could have a hot breakfast as soon as she woke up, he got up before dawn and went to queue up in front of the state-run restaurant.
At five o'clock, as soon as the state-run restaurant opened, He Chaoyang, who was first in line, went straight into the restaurant.
I ordered a bowl of wontons, Chen Shuning's favorite, and a few meat buns. I also bought some fried dough sticks and soy milk, just in case the little girl wanted something else. Anyway, I'm here, so I can eat what she doesn't want.
After ordering his food, He Chaoyang found a seat and waited for his breakfast to be ready.
A moment later, the waiter behind the counter called number one, and He Chaoyang hurriedly got up, grabbed his lunchbox, and walked toward the counter.
He Chaoyang carefully packed the prepared breakfast into a lunchbox and held it in his arms as if it were a rare treasure.
Not knowing when the little girl woke up, He Chaoyang quickened his pace, almost running back to the guesthouse.
Seeing that Chen Shuning's room door was still tightly closed, He Chaoyang didn't go back to his own room, but just waited outside Chen Shuning's door with a lunchbox in his arms.
Fortunately, Chen Shuning didn't keep him waiting for long. Soon after, He Chaoyang heard movement coming from Chen Shuning's room.
However, He Chaoyang did not disturb her, but waited quietly outside the door until Chen Shuning opened the door and saw the scene just now.
Chen Shuning rubbed his eyes and saw the lunchbox in He Chaoyang's hand, a surprised smile appearing on his face.
"Why did you go to buy breakfast so early?" Chen Shuning asked.
"I knew you'd be hungry in the morning, so I went to buy some food early." He Chaoyang said, carrying the lunchbox in one hand and naturally taking Chen Shuning's hand with the other as they entered the room.
Place the lunchbox on the table, open the lid, and an enticing aroma wafts out.
Looking at the breakfast spread out on the table, Chen Shuning was filled with emotion and happiness.
"Why did you buy so much? There's no way the two of us can finish it all," Chen Shuning said, looking at the four or five different breakfast items.
"I didn't know what you wanted to eat, so I just bought a little bit of everything." He Chaoyang said as he pulled up a stool and sat down next to Chen Shuning, looking at his little girl with eyes full of joy.
Chen Shuning didn't stand on ceremony with He Chaoyang. She scooped up a wonton, put it in her mouth, closed her eyes, and savored the taste of the wonton. She slowly felt He Chaoyang's affection and love. She couldn't help but sigh. It felt so good to be pampered. No wonder everyone longs to find someone who loves them.
Looking at Chen Shuning's eyes filled with happiness, He Chaoyang's heart was also filled with happiness and contentment.
The two had finished breakfast at only 6:30 a.m., tidied up, and went downstairs. They put the things they had bought yesterday into the jeep that the military commander had specially approved for He Chaoyang's use for this period of time, and then set off for the Qingshan Brigade.
He Chaoyang's leave was specially approved by the military region leaders, so He Chaoyang no longer needs to return to the army.
However, Chen Shuning needed to go back to Qingshan Brigade to ask for leave.
Although the military commander, who took He Chaoyang's upcoming marriage very seriously, said that the two of them could just go back to Beijing to hold the wedding, and that he would also arrange for Chen Shuning to take leave.
However, Chen Shuning felt that since he had been gone for more than a month, it wouldn't be good to return to Beijing without even showing his face.
Therefore, he declined the leader's offer and decided to go back in person to ask for leave before leaving.
The main problem is that Chen Shuning left in a hurry when he came, and he didn't pack anything at home.
As a veteran educated youth in his second year of being sent to the countryside, Chen Shuning was entitled to take leave to go home for the Spring Festival. Therefore, Chen Shuning planned to take a few more days off and try to return after the Spring Festival.
It just so happens that He Chaoyang also took leave to go home and recuperate from his injury, so the two of them can probably spend the New Year in Beijing before returning.
He Chaoyang drove fast and steadily, and the two arrived at Hongqi Town before three o'clock in the afternoon.
Thinking about the double bedding she couldn't buy at the Harbin department store, Chen Shuning felt a little regretful.
Although the two had already agreed to consummate their marriage after holding their wedding in Beijing.
But Chen Shuning still wanted to take advantage of this trip back to the educated youth settlement to tidy up her little house there.
So when the car passed the alleyway leading to the black market, Chen Shuning thought for a moment and then asked He Chaoyang to stop the car, explaining that she needed to prepare her dowry.
He firmly insisted that He Chaoyang wait in the car, while he went to the black market for a stroll, thinking about what Hei Zi had said a while ago: that many people get married after the autumn harvest.
I asked myself if I could get some suitable bed sheets and duvet covers for the wedding.
At that time, she seemed to have brought several sets of double bedding for Kuroko.
Since it was the first time this kind of product had been released, Chen Shuning remembered that he hadn't given Hei Zi many sets, and he didn't know if Hei Zi still had any left after all this time.
But even if she doesn't get it, it's fine. Her main purpose today is to go to the black market. If she can buy it, she will; if not, it doesn't matter.
At worst, she can just buy a bamboo basket from the black market. Anyway, the people selling things on the black market all have these kinds of things, so it's not difficult to buy one.
I can just secretly take a set of bedding from my space and put it in the bamboo basket.
Anyway, He Chaoyang couldn't possibly go to the black market to investigate which stall she bought what.
