Chapter Ninety-Nine: She actually believed what she was told to coax a child.
After resting at home for a day, Shen Yuzhu asked Lü Guangzhi for a letter of introduction the next day, and took an oxcart to the garrison. She wanted to tell Zhou Congsheng the news immediately, and she was excited, with a smile on her face all the way.
It seemed like fate was on her side. By sheer coincidence, Zhou Congsheng wasn't on a mission today; he was at the military base. After receiving the message, he quickly arrived at the door to see her.
Seeing that she was carrying many bags and packages, I took them from her with a feeling of tenderness.
"Why did you bring so much stuff? I have everything I need, so don't keep thinking about me."
"Come to your dorm, I have something to show you."
Zhou Congsheng was infected by her emotions, chuckled twice, and led her back to the dormitory. Along the way, many passing soldiers saw Zhou Congsheng leading a pretty girl back to the dormitory and started whispering among themselves, including Ren Dayong.
When he saw him, he clicked his tongue twice. Before returning to the provincial capital, he made a special trip to see Zhou Congsheng and genuinely thought that the guy was quite good-looking. Thinking of his sister, Kayan, he even had the idea of introducing him to her.
Looking at the happy young couple now, he wished he could go back in time and slap himself.
These are Zhao Yue's brother and sister-in-law. If I were to interfere with their relationship and try to play matchmaker, Zhao Yue would probably tear me apart. I could forget about having any happiness for the rest of my life.
Back in the dormitory, Zhou Congsheng closed the door and hugged Shen Yuzhu tightly.
I miss you so much. How about you? Do you miss me?
"kindness!"
They hadn't seen each other since the New Year, and when she saw Zhou Congsheng running towards her at the door, she clearly felt a flutter in her heart.
Zhou Congsheng held her for a while before reluctantly letting go, putting his things on the table, and pouring her a glass of water. Only when he handed it to her did he realize that the water was cold.
He quickly ran out and brought back a bottle of hot water.
"I've been training a lot lately and haven't been back to the dorm much. I forgot to change the water, so please don't mind, Zhuzhu."
"Oh, it's nothing. I heard about your training. You've lost weight. Is it very tough for you?"
Zhou Congsheng shook his head. He had originally wanted to tell her about the military, but then he remembered that she had said she had something to tell him when she first arrived, so he asked instead.
Shen Yuzhu didn't say anything, but smiled and took the certificate out of her bosom and handed it to him.
When Zhou Congsheng saw the little red booklet, he had a strong premonition. However, after receiving it and seeing the words "Advanced Certificate" written on it, he couldn't help but stand up abruptly.
He looked at Shen Yuzhu with an excited expression and trembling lips.
With a slightly hoarse voice, she asked, "Is this...is this true? Can we...can we get married?"
"Yes, I completed the mission in the provincial capital this time. The organization recognizes my abilities, and my file has been updated. It clearly records that I am now a public servant. From now on, we can get married."
Zhou Congsheng's eyes reddened as he stared intently at Shen Yuzhu.
Although men don't easily shed tears, for so many years he has been silently watching her, hoping that one day he could get even the slightest bit of her attention, and if he was lucky, stand openly by her side.
She is like the moon in the sky, shining not only on him.
After waiting for so many years, the person he loved finally looked down at him, and every day that they became a couple felt like a dream.
Now Yuzhu says they can get married.
We can get married now!!!
These words were like heavenly music to him.
Seeing that he suddenly burst into tears, Shen Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, wiping away his tears with a mixture of amusement and heartache.
"Alright, alright, stop crying. Isn't this a good thing? Are you willing to marry me or not? Are you crying because you're happy or scared, Zhou Congsheng?"
"I'm so happy, of course I'm happy, Zhuzhu! I... Waaah, I did it! Waaah... I've already written my marriage application, and I've submitted it. You're my wife now! I need to call my parents right away and ask them to come over so they can share in my joy."
Shen Yuzhu gently hugged him, stroking his back lightly again and again.
Zhou Congsheng finally managed to calm himself down, but when he saw Shen Yuzhu smiling at him, he immediately felt embarrassed. He coughed twice, turned around, exhaled, and fanned his cheek with his hand.
"Hehe, look, there are tiny flying insects in this room... why are there even some flying insects? They even flew into my eyes, it's really uncomfortable."
"Yes, I just saw two of them, and they both flew into your eyes."
Zhou Congsheng: "..."
That tone is like coaxing a child!
Shen Yuzhu went to the cafeteria with him at noon. He had a task in the afternoon, so Shen Yuzhu rested in his dormitory.
Zhao Yue only found out that Shen Yuzhu had arrived after training was over. She was overjoyed and ran to find her.
Ren Dayong, who came to deliver the message, immediately grabbed her arm.
"What are you doing? Let go of me."
"You're such a spoilsport. They're here to see their partners, and the young couple hasn't even had a proper chat yet. You just barged in and made them look annoying."
"Get lost! My brother and sister-in-law would never look down on me. My sister-in-law said that in her heart, I am more important than my brother. What do you know?"
Ren Dayong glanced at her with disdain. This sounded like something he'd said to coax a child, and she'd actually believed it.
"Listen to me, it's really not a good time to go over there. Your sister-in-law and brother haven't seen each other in a long time, and they're bound to... well, you know, all that kissing and hugging. If you go over there, how can they be so affectionate?"
Seeing that she was silent, Ren Dayong quickly continued, "Think carefully, isn't it true that every time your brother and sister-in-law are together, when you run over, your brother gives you a sharp look?"
Zhao Yue looked at him suspiciously, recalling the events in her mind. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that what Ren Dayong said seemed to make sense.
When Zhou Congsheng heard that he would be on duty during the Spring Festival and would not be able to go to Xiangyang Production Team, he couldn't help but laugh out loud several times.
At the time, she didn't think much of it, but now that she thinks about it, she's probably worried he would be overjoyed if she hadn't gone!
"Okay, I'll go see my sister-in-law tomorrow. You can go now, I'm going back to my dorm."
"Hey, you're such a simpleton. How about this, I'll treat you to a meal at a restaurant, and I'll give you a good talk about relationships between men and women. That way, when you're with your brother and sister-in-law, you'll be more careful, right?"
"Pshaw~, give me a break. You're an old bachelor, and you're still rambling on. Go find yourself a girlfriend first. Your head is full of nonsense, you silly boy."
Ren Dayong: "..."
What does this mean? Is it a compliment or an insult?
