Chapter Fifteen: Remember to Think of Me
Xie Guoliang looked Shen Yuzhu up and down. She was indeed very beautiful. Even in a hospital gown, she was a beautiful woman in distress. When her big, watery eyes looked at him, his heart skipped a beat.
"Cough cough..."
Meeting Zhou Congsheng's somewhat displeased gaze, Xie Guoliang finally came to his senses.
"Hello, Comrade Shen. I am the captain of the Chengbei Public Security Bureau. I've come here to ask you some questions."
Shen Yuzhu nodded obediently, then glanced at Zhou Congsheng. After putting down the bowl, the latter immediately poured a glass of water and handed it to her, which she naturally accepted.
Xie Guoliang: "........."
That's very perceptive!
Who could tell that this was the youngest regimental commander, a ruthless and impartial figure who had spent years honing his skills in the military?
"Comrade Shen, didn't you already issue a statement severing ties? How come you ended up at the Shen family's house with Lü Jiahao and the others?"
Shen Yuzhu took a sip of water before slowly beginning to speak.
“I’m going to the countryside tomorrow. The Shen family is where I’ve lived since I was a child. I’m reluctant to leave. Last night, after checking out of the guesthouse, I went home.”
"I've already handed over the house deed, so from now on it's a place I can't just go in whenever I want. Thinking that this might be the last time I'll be inside as the owner, I decided to stay there for one night. But as soon as I arrived at the Shen family's house, I heard a commotion inside!"
"Noise?"
Shen Yuzhu nodded, and when she looked at Xie Guoliang, she suddenly smiled softly, "Well, at the time I thought there was another thief breaking into the house, so I locked the front door and the bedroom door. After I sneaked in, I found out it was Lü Jiahao and his gang."
"Comrade Shen, you're really brave. Didn't you think of going out to ask for help?"
Shen Yuzhu stuck out her tongue, glanced at Zhou Congsheng shyly, and then said softly, "I didn't think too much at the time, I just thought that I definitely couldn't let the thief get away."
"Don't do that again next time. No, there won't be a next time. Nothing is more important than your safety."
Zhou Congsheng looked at Shen Yuzhu with a stern face, but only for a moment. After Shen Yuzhu turned her face away, he stiffly forced a smile and looked at her.
Xie Guoliang: "......."
No wonder Uncle Zhou and Aunt Chu said you're obsessed with your wife, it's unbearable to watch!
"Yes, I've remembered everything you said. I'm the most obedient person."
Xie Guoliang: "......."
Destroy it, thank you!!!
"Ahem... Comrade Shen, let's continue. It seems that Lü Jiahao and his group have had a conflict. Do you know why?"
"Well, Lü Jiahao wanted to take them to Hong Kong, but Shen Yuxia didn't want to go. She wanted Lü Jiahao to issue a certificate of severance of ties so that she could sever all ties. After all, she was convinced that I had already transferred the job to her. Zhong Fu didn't want to leave either. She actually had a lover. She even lied to Lü Jiahao that Shen Yukun wasn't his son. She just didn't want to go to Hong Kong. She was unfamiliar with the place and no one knew what kind of life she would lead there. That box of large yellow croakers was enough for them to live comfortably. That's why they had a falling out. They just didn't expect that I was still in the Shen family."
"They found me and were afraid I would tell on them, so they wanted to harm me."
"that........"
"Are you ever going to stop? We're interrogating a prisoner, can't you see she's tired?"
"Okay, okay, I'm leaving now. Comrade Shen, you should get some rest. I'll be going now, otherwise I don't know if someone will let me see the sun the next day, hmph!"
"Ha ha......"
Seeing Shen Yuzhu laughing heartily, Zhou Congsheng felt a little embarrassed. He kicked Xie Guoliang and shoved him out of the ward.
Shen Yuzhu's plight deeply saddened her neighbors in the compound. They not only pooled their money but also bought her many gifts, which Zhou Congsheng helped deliver to her, all in an effort to make her more comfortable in the countryside.
She felt a little guilty accepting it, but ultimately didn't refuse.
Inside the station, the Zhou family of three were all there, surrounded by other parents who were reluctantly seeing their children off.
"Good child, take good care of yourself when you get there. The farm work is heavy, do what you can, and ask for leave if you can't. Don't push yourself. These are the addresses of some of my classmates, written on a piece of paper. If you encounter any problems that you can't solve, go to them and they will help you."
"Alright, alright, you've been nagging all the way here. Let Congsheng and Zhuzhu have a proper chat. Let's go over there."
"I can't bear to part with it!"
Chu Lianhong stared at Zhou Daoming with her red eyes. The latter also looked reluctant, but the couple knew in their hearts that the one who was suffering the most at this moment was their son.
Seeing that the two of them had deliberately given them space to talk, Shen Yuzhu reached out and tugged at Zhou Congsheng's hand.
"I'm leaving now. I'll write to you every month and take good care of myself, so don't worry."
"Yes, the large luggage items are transported by the educated youth office. When you get to the station, check it out. Mom has put money and coupons in the quilt, cotton coat, and shoe soles that I prepared for you. The coupons are valid all over the country. I also put money in the gap of this suitcase that you carry with you. I have prepared a lot of food and drinks for you in your bag. Don't leave them out today, so don't be reluctant to eat them, okay!"
"It will take several days on the journey. There are food vendors on the train, so don't be stingy with your meals. I will send you my monthly allowance from now on."
He spoke very softly when he mentioned these things, especially when he talked about money, his lips were almost touching his ears. For a moment, Shen Yuzhu suspected that he was doing it on purpose.
"No need, you can spend your own money. I have some... but if you want to send it to me, then send it!"
Shen Yuzhu was somewhat helpless. She had already signed the guarantee, but this person was still not at ease. As soon as he uttered any words of refusal, his expression changed.
"Is there anything else you want to tell me?"
Zhou Congsheng blushed as he looked at his shy sweetheart in front of him. If this weren't a train station, he would have... taken Yuzhu's little hand.
"I will do my best in the army, Comrade Shen Yuzhu. I look forward to the day we meet again. When that day comes, I will definitely marry you in the shortest possible time."
"I'm waiting for you."
They could talk for three days and three nights and still not finish. From now on, they could only write letters. Unfortunately, letters are short and feelings are long. Zhou Congsheng felt that he could not express his feelings. Moreover, Shen Yuzhu's attitude towards him had only recently improved, so he dared not say anything too outrageous for fear of scaring her.
Looking at the handsome man in front of her, Shen Yuzhu understood his feelings, which spanned two lifetimes. However, she was also afraid that if she showed too much enthusiasm, she would scare him and make him think that she had some kind of hysteria.
The train whistle had already sounded. Shen Yuzhu, carrying her bag and suitcase, was about to board the train. From time to time, cries could be heard from the crowd of relatives seeing them off. Zhou Congsheng also felt a little anxious.
Shen Yuzhu took two steps forward, then suddenly turned her head and, taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention, hugged Zhou Congsheng tightly, tilted her head slightly, and pressed her lips to his neck, giving him a gentle kiss.
"Zhou Congsheng, I'm leaving. You're not allowed to look at any other female comrades. Remember to miss me."
