The girl looked to be around twenty years old, wearing a green military uniform, with short hair that reached her ears. She had delicate features and could be considered above average in appearance.
As soon as she entered the room, her gaze fell directly on Feng Yidong, then she looked at Lu Zhengting and Lin Qingyan, before her gaze returned to Feng Yidong.
"Feng Yidong, I heard from others that you came here. It turns out you really are here."
"Brother Ting got married and brought his wife to join him at the military base. I came over to sit down and chat with them."
Liu Manman then looked at Lu Zhengting and Lin Qingyan and said, "Brother Lu, you're finally married! Your wife is so beautiful."
Lu Zhengting nodded with a serious expression, "I'm not that old."
He finally got married, as if he were some old man.
"I'm not saying you're too old. People say you're not interested in women. Jiaojiao, Peipei, and Yingying from the art troupe all have their eyes on you, but you don't even give them a chance to pursue you. Especially Qiu Yingying, she's been pursuing you relentlessly, she's written you so many love letters, but you haven't accepted a single one. Sister-in-law, let me tell you how many female comrades in the art troupe have fallen for Brother Lu."
"Cough cough."
Gu Zhengting coughed heavily twice, while cautiously glancing at Lin Qingyan.
Feng Yidong stopped Liu Manman from continuing, saying, "Alright, stop talking. Brother Ting isn't interested in those women. He just likes your wife. They're destined to be together."
Lin Qingyan was just listening to Liu Manman talk about more beautiful women when Lu Zhengting interrupted her.
She smiled and said, "Zhengting is excellent in every way, so it's normal for female comrades to like him. However, now that I'm here, it saves other female comrades from having any designs on him."
Liu Manman is a sucker for good looks. In fact, she was stunned by Lin Qingyan's angelic beauty the moment she saw her.
Fortunately, this beautiful woman married Lu Zhengting. If she had liked Feng Yidong, I definitely wouldn't have been able to win her over.
However, with Lin Qingyan's excellent external qualities, perhaps only Lu Zhengting is worthy of her.
"Sister-in-law, you're so beautiful, you and Brother Lu are a perfect match. Other women would be completely outshone by you. Even if Brother Lu and you weren't married, they'd probably be too afraid to make a move on him if they knew you were dating."
"You have such a sweet tongue, you're so good at talking." Lin Qingyan handed her some candy.
"Oh dear, these must be wedding candies from your wedding with Brother Lu." She took the candies from her hand. "Eat some to share in your joy, and I hope I can get married soon too." She glanced at Feng Yidong subconsciously, then looked at Lin Qingyan. "By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. Sister-in-law, my name is Liu Manman. I'm a female soldier in the cultural troupe here, and I'm also Comrade Feng Yidong's girlfriend."
Feng Yidong immediately looked at her, "We haven't started dating yet, have we?"
"Let's start from now on. I hereby declare that we are now in a relationship."
Feng Yidong was speechless. "Does your own announcement count?"
"Fine, since you didn't object, that means you agreed." She looked at Feng Yidong with her big eyes. "Would you object?"
Feng Yidong paused for a moment, seemingly conflicted, and then nodded.
Liu Manman immediately smiled and walked to Feng Yidong's side: "I told you I would win you over sooner or later. Can you see how sincere I am to you? Feng Yidong, let me tell you, you've struck gold by dating me. I'm beautiful, gentle and generous, and we're the perfect match."
Lin Qingyan was somewhat surprised by Liu Manman's actions. People in this era were still heavily bound by old ideas and were generally very reserved, especially young women, who were usually very demure.
Liu Manman, however, was quite open-minded.
From her words, Lin Qingyan could tell that it was Liu Manman who actively pursued Feng Yidong, and that her words and actions were very bold. Lin Qingyan had the illusion that she was a modern girl.
Lu Zhengting asked Feng Yidong, "When did you two start dating? Things have progressed quite quickly."
Feng Yidong said, "I don't remember exactly when it started, but you went to the countryside to treat your leg, and she started looking for me frequently. And then, it's been like this ever since. Now that you're here, you're focused on training and don't care about us."
Even when it was revealed that Feng Yidong was the one she had pursued, Liu Manman wasn't angry.
"What's wrong with a woman pursuing a man? If I like someone, I should boldly pursue him. This is a new era, and we are all women of the new era. We should boldly pursue our ideals, ambitions, and partners. Didn't I just say that several girls in our art troupe are thinking of pursuing Brother Lu?"
"Cough cough."
Lu Zhengting coughed twice more, thinking, "Can't you just not let your wife associate him with other women?"
"Comrade Liu Manman, just talk about your relationship with Yi Dong, don't mention me again."
He quickly walked over to Lin Qingyan, sat down next to her, and put his hand on his wife's shoulder. "Wife, let me give you a massage."
Fearing that Liu Manman might say something else that would cause Lin Qingyan to misunderstand Lu Zhengting, Feng Yidong got up to take his leave.
"Brother Ting, sister-in-law, it's getting late, I should go back now, you should rest too."
Liu Manman naturally wanted to go with him, so she got up to say goodbye.
Lu Zhengting and Lin Qingyan did not insist that they stay, and saw them off to the front gate.
When Feng Yidong and Liu Manman went outside, Liu Manman tried to hold Feng Yidong's hand, but Feng Yidong dodged her.
"It wouldn't be good if someone saw us."
"We're a couple now, what's there to be afraid of? Besides, it's dark everywhere, who could see us?"
