Lin Qingyan: "When can't I play chess with Zhengting? Do you think I'm trying to steal your spot? I'm just worried about your training tomorrow."
Shen Mengfei smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law. I'm really fine. Do I look like I'm not feeling well? I'd like to stay a little longer."
Seeing that she couldn't get rid of him, Lin Qingyan stopped chasing him away.
You can't reason with a stubborn person; sometimes things are just ordained by fate, and no one can change them.
After Shen Mengfei stared at Shen Mengya for a long time, Shen Mengya also noticed the burning gaze that occasionally drifted over from over there.
The man kept staring at her, and how could she not understand what that young man's gaze meant?
Shen Mengfei must have taken a liking to her.
She also subconsciously glanced at Shen Mengfei a couple more times, noticing that Shen Mengfei's physical appearance was better than those of the single officers she had met before.
Lu Zhengting said that all the officers under his command were either in relationships or married; none of them were single.
But if this man is staring at me like that, and he really has a girlfriend or is married, then staring at other women like that is just being a pervert.
The military has strict discipline, and if Shen Mengfei does anything even slightly indecent, he will be punished. Why is he keeping an eye on me? Doesn't he know the military's rules, or is he deliberately breaking them?
Grandma Shen sat with her eyelids lowered. Bored, she gradually became sleepy and couldn't help but yawn.
"Mengya, it's getting late, let's go back inside and go to sleep."
Shen Mengya didn't want to go back. Firstly, she wanted to stay by Lu Zhengting's side. Secondly, she wanted to see what Shen Mengfei wanted to do to her and whether there was anything about him that she could use.
"Grandma, I'm not sleepy yet. I want to watch them play chess. You go to sleep first."
Grandma Lu stood up: "If you don't want to sleep, stay here for a while. I'm going back to sleep."
"Okay, Grandma."
Grandma Lu yawned again, patted her mouth with her hand, and went outside.
Shen Mengya deliberately came up to Shen Mengfei and watched him play chess with Lu Zhengting.
Shen Mengya's sudden approach made Shen Mengfei's heart race, and her ears involuntarily began to feel hot.
Because he already had feelings for Shen Mengya, he couldn't help but have wild thoughts.
Shen Mengya took the initiative to move closer. Could it be that the other person is also interested in him?
Thinking this, his face turned red. He held the chess piece in his hand and placed it as if he wasn't thinking. He made two or three bad moves in a row. Lu Zhengting planned to win later, but Shen Mengfei directly defeated him in one move.
Lu Zhengting had lost interest. "Mengfei, I think you're really not in the zone today. Let's just stop playing. Your mind isn't on the game at all. You're getting worse and worse. I don't want to play with you anymore. There's no point in winning."
Shen Mengfei quickly tidied up the chessboard. He knew that Shen Mengya's proximity had made him more distracted while playing chess.
But he couldn't leave; to be precise, he was reluctant to leave.
"Battalion Commander, let's play two more rounds. If I lose both, I'll leave."
They each took their chess pieces back. Shen Mengfei's heart was pounding. Shen Mengya looked very young and was deliberately getting close to him. If she really had feelings for him, then she should be single.
He's 23 and still single. If Shen Mengya is also single, maybe they could give it a try.
How should he find out if Shen Mengya has a boyfriend? Asking directly seems too abrupt.
He suddenly remembered the casual remark he'd made about asking Lin Qingyan to find him a partner, so he asked her, "Sister-in-law, do you remember when I told you I didn't have a boyfriend and wanted you to find me one? Do you have any ideas about where I might meet a suitable woman?"
Lin Qingyan would never introduce Shen Mengya to him. "Not yet, Brother Mengfei. Finding a partner is a major life event, and sometimes it depends on fate. You can't rush it. I will continue to keep an eye out for suitable female colleagues in our hospital."
Shen Mengfei wondered, wasn't Shen Mengya single?
Their girls are right in front of me, why can't they introduce me to them?
Could it be that they look down on him because he's just a company commander? Or is there some other reason?
However, when Shen Mengya learned that Shen Mengfei was still single, she realized that Lu Zhengting had lied to her and Old Madam Lu.
Lu Zhengting deliberately told them that all the officers under his command were either in relationships or married. What did he mean by that?
Could it be that Lu Zhengting deliberately doesn't want to marry her off?
He doesn't want to give her to another man and wants her to stay single at home. That means he likes her and doesn't want her to be possessed by another man.
Thinking of this, she felt incredibly excited.
On the surface, Lu Zhengting appeared indifferent to her, keeping her at arm's length, but in reality, she held a significant place in his heart.
But if he had feelings for her, why didn't he agree to date her in the first place? And then he got together with Lin Qingyan. He didn't give her any face at all because of Lin Qingyan. She almost treated him like an enemy. When she and Grandma Lu came here, he didn't welcome them and even tried to drive them away.
What exactly is he trying to do? Does he like her or not? Shen Mengya was a little confused.
She stared at Chen Mengfei for a while, and suddenly an idea came to her.
Whether Lu Zhengting likes her or dislikes her, if he doesn't speak, she has to buy herself time and find a way to verify it.
But the prerequisite is that she can stay by his side.
