Chapter 103: Deputy Commander Cui's Earth-shattering Love
"Hahahaha, we can't go to Antarctica now, but we will definitely be able to go there in the future. We can also go to the moon. Our country is no worse than the United States."
Deputy Commander Cui is full of confidence in the future. The Chinese people are willing to endure hardships and are not afraid of any difficulties or obstacles. They will never lose to the United States.
"Absolutely. We can even go to Mars. In the future, we can even work in space."
Li Rong spoke with conviction, because Luo Xinxin told him that a few decades later, China would not only go to Antarctica, but also land on the moon and build a space station that would be more advanced than that of the United States.
Luo Xinxin also said that two American astronauts were forgotten in space and left unattended because their spacecraft malfunctioned.
Li Rong felt that if the United States lost the support of the people in the future, it would definitely fall further and further behind and eventually be overtaken by China.
"You are more imaginative than me. I hope it can really come true. I don't know if my old bones can see it."
Deputy Commander Cui was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. This kid was even crazier than him, and he liked him.
"How old are you this year?" Li Rong asked.
"47, what's wrong?"
"Then you should take good care of yourself, and you should be able to see the prosperity of China."
Li Rong's tone was very serious. Sixty years later, Deputy Commander Cui 107, if he took good care of his health, it would not be impossible.
"How dare you say that? It will take at least a hundred years to go to the moon and Mars. I'm not an old witch."
Deputy Commander Cui was amused. He and his old comrades imagined the future of China and estimated that it would take about a hundred years for the Chinese people to live a good life and stand tall in the international arena.
Even if he could live longer, he wouldn't be able to live past a hundred years.
"No, sixty years is enough. In ancient times, people lived to be centenarians. If you live well, you will definitely live to be centenarians."
Li Rong was very confident. Although Deputy Commander Cui had been wounded many times, he was in good health. Moreover, given his rank, he had access to top-level medical resources. Theoretically, he should have no problem living to be a hundred years old.
"You sound so real. Who can predict the future? I'll report Xiao Luo taking off her hat to the higher-ups and ask them to hurry up. But you have to think carefully. Xiao Luo's grandparents are known for their graceful movements. Even if Xiao Luo takes off her hat, her status will definitely affect your future."
Deputy Commander Cui actually wanted to persuade him to break up, saying that with Li Rong's conditions, he could find a better partner.
He used to want to marry his daughter to this guy, but after seeing the guy's sharp tongue, he changed his mind. But he also didn't want to see a talented person's future affected by the issue of getting married.
"Deputy Commander, love should not be tainted by any impurities. Didn't you and your lover also endure numerous tests back then?"
Li Rong had long heard about Deputy Commander Cui's earth-shattering and heart-wrenching love story, which had even spread beyond the Northwest Military Region. He had heard about it when he was in the Shanghai Military Region.
Before joining the revolution, Deputy Commander Cui was a farmhand in a landlord's family. His wife was the landlord's eldest daughter, who was studying in a foreign school in the provincial capital. She was beautiful, well-educated, and had a good family background. No matter from which aspect, it was impossible for him to be with an uneducated farmhand.
But love is like a tornado, it comes suddenly and with great power. The eldest daughter fell in love with the country bumpkin farmhand, but of course she was opposed by the landlord, who was hoping to give his daughter to the warlord as a concubine to gain benefits.
As a result, the eldest daughter eloped with the farmhand, and they joined the revolution together. Moreover, the characters that Deputy Commander Cui knew were all taught by his wife, and the couple had a very good relationship.
"We were different back then than you are now." Deputy Commander Cui raised the corners of his mouth with a proud expression.
Being able to marry a wife is the proudest thing in his life.
"Love knows no age. If you like someone, then you like them. Otherwise, your lover wouldn't like you."
Li Rong felt a little guilty when he said this. After all, there was no love between him and Luo Xinxin yet. The girl only wanted to take off the hat, and it was even less likely that she had love for him. They were more like partners.
"That's because I'm handsome. Back then, I was the most handsome guy in the whole town."
Deputy Commander Cui was very proud. He knew that his wife was attracted to him because of his handsomeness.
Li Rong smiled and didn't respond.
He has learned his lesson now. He disdains lying, and telling the truth is likely to offend people, so it's better to keep silent.
"What's with that expression on your face? I was no worse than you back then!"
Deputy Commander Cui glared fiercely. He was very confident about his appearance. His wife was a painter and had very high standards for beauty. When his wife said he was handsome, it was 100% true.
Li Rong simply stopped smiling and looked at the dark-skinned leader with an expressionless face. This face was even further away from being a handsome young man than Luo Xinxin taking off her hat.
Pan An is in the eyes of his lover, and the ancients were not wrong about him.
"Let me ask you something. How did Xiao Luo get information about the enemy spies?" Deputy Commander Cui asked the question he had been thinking about for a long time.
His men have all received professional training, but none of them are as good as Luo Xinxin in catching enemy spies. This girl is no ordinary person.
Li Rong looked hesitant, not knowing what to say.
"This matter must be made clear, otherwise I won't be able to explain it clearly to the higher-ups. They might suspect that Xiao Luo is connected to the enemy spies."
"Have you ever heard of psychology?"
Li Rong thought of a perfect reason.
"Xiao Luo knows psychology?"
"Yes, she is very proficient. She can guess what someone is thinking through their facial expressions and body movements, and it is almost foolproof." Li Rong said.
"Is it really that powerful?"
Deputy Commander Cui was skeptical.
"If you don't believe me, you can give it a try. However, I suggest you don't try it yourself, as it could easily reveal your secrets."
Li Rong suggested sincerely, but he didn't dare let Luo Xinxin try it, for fear that the girl would know that he liked to sleep with his clothes off.
Deputy Commander Cui immediately gave up the idea of trying it himself. He was afraid that Xiao Luo would guess where he hid his private money and he would lose every penny.
"Well, let Xiao Luo cooperate and continue to interrogate Mingyue and the other two to see if we can dig out more information."
"When will the trial be held?"
"Wait for notification in a few days."
"good."
Li Rong saluted and left. He had to go back to sleep as he was feeling a little sleepy.
As soon as he left, Deputy Commander Cui called a certain department: "Hello, this is Cui Zhiguo. This is Comrade Luo Xinxin, the one I mentioned to you last time. Yes, she's the brave girl who captured the enemy spies. Yesterday, she cooperated with our people to capture four more enemy spies and made great contributions. When do you think she will take off this hat? We can't let our comrades down!"
"Will the examination take longer? Give me an exact number. How long will it take? One year, two years, or ten years? I'll tell you the truth. Luo Xinxin is really capable. I want to recruit her to catch enemy spies. You'd better speed up the examination. Otherwise, it will delay my work and slow down the scientific research progress of the base. You can't afford the loss."
Deputy Commander Cui spoke in an official tone and successfully intimidated the other party. He promised to speed up the investigation and would never delay the work of the base.
"We must be efficient and stop dragging our feet. If everyone works at this pace, how can we continue to develop the country?"
After Deputy Commander Cui finished his lecture, he hung up the phone with a bang, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, and said to himself: "Damn it, fighting is more comfortable. Dealing with these people is really fucking tiring!"
When that guy gets married, he must be invited to sit in the seat of honor. He has never been so worried about his own wedding.
