Chapter 8: Just a Comrade's Sister
Gu Yunting's superior looked up at Gu Yunting and Zheng Jiayu standing next to him: "Is this the fiancée your grandfather arranged for you?"
"Yes, her name is Zheng Jiayu."
"Hello Comrade Zheng, we are aware of your parents' situation. You can rest assured here; your safety is fully guaranteed."
"If there's anything you need to say, you can talk to Yunting directly."
Zheng Jiayu was initially a little nervous, thinking that these leaders were all very serious.
Surprisingly, this leader was quite easy to talk to.
"I will."
"Yunting, take her to rest first. Once she's settled, come back and report to me about this mission and the people you captured," the leader instructed sternly.
This matter cannot be left unresolved.
"yes."
"I've already applied for a house for you to live with your family. It's the one not far from my house. Here's the key." The leader took the key out of the drawer and handed it to Gu Yunting.
After learning about Zheng Jiayu's relationship with Gu Yunting, he applied for a house for Gu Yunting and had his wife help tidy up the house these past few days so that they could move in as soon as they came.
Gu Yunting was surprised that he had thought of everything so thoroughly: "Then we'll be going now."
Gu Yunting took the keys and led Zheng Jiayu to the family compound.
Having found their courtyard, Gu Yunting opened the gate and led the people inside.
The yard had clearly been cleaned; everything was spotless.
"Let's go in and see what's missing." Gu Yunting led Zheng Jiayu inside.
The two looked around the yard, and finally Zheng Jiayu said, "We have enough things here to live on. All we need to buy now are daily necessities."
The leaders and their spouses have already arranged very well for the furniture in their home.
Don't rush to add the remaining odds and ends; just add them gradually.
Zheng Jiayu felt a wave of dizziness as she thought about the way out.
Is this something I absolutely have to buy?
Seeing Zheng Jiayu's face turn pale again, Gu Yunting suppressed a laugh and said, "Don't worry, there are villages near the military region. We can go there to exchange supplies. As for going out to buy things, the cooks will go out every week. You can go with them if you want to buy something, or they can help bring it back."
Zheng Jiayu nodded in understanding. Oh, I see. I'm relieved.
"I'll drive you out tomorrow to buy some necessities. These are essential items." Gu Yunting knew that Zheng Jiayu wasn't used to traveling by car yet, but these things were necessary for their move.
Although Zheng Jiayu was somewhat reluctant, she still nodded reluctantly and agreed: "Okay, let's go together tomorrow."
While Gu Yunting and Zheng Jiayu were discussing what to buy for tomorrow, Shen Lin also learned that Gu Yunting had returned from his mission.
Not only that, he also brought a very beautiful woman with him.
This news prompted Shen Lin to rush over.
Upon entering, one sees Gu Yunting and Zheng Jiayu sitting together, discussing something earnestly.
Zheng Jiayu was also writing something in a notebook.
"Do you need a sewing machine? If so, I'll go find my comrades to exchange for tickets," Gu Yunting asked, noticing that Zheng Jiayi had bought mostly pots and pans.
"A sewing machine is optional for us right now, we can talk about it later, let's buy the necessities first."
"I'll listen to you."
Gu Yunting's gentle voice stung Shen Lin's eyes.
Shen Lin strode up to Gu Yunting and asked through gritted teeth, "Brother Yunting, who is this woman?"
Gu Yunting looked up at Shen Lin, who had barged in at some point, took Zheng Jiayu's hand, and calmly said, "This is my fiancée, Zheng Jiayu."
fiancée?
Shen Lin stared blankly at Gu Yunting, who was speaking in front of her, her face deathly pale.
Shen Lin asked unwillingly, "She's your fiancée, so who am I?"
Gu Yunting looked calmly at Shen Lin in front of him: "You are just my comrade's sister."
The phrase "comrade's sister" felt like a slap in the face to Shen Lin.
Shen Lin pointed a trembling finger at Zheng Jiayu: "What is it about this woman that I don't?"
"I came to this godforsaken place for you, and now you're telling me you have a fiancée? What about everything I did for you?"
Hearing Shen Lin's hysterical questioning, Zheng Jiayu then said, "You're just being presumptuous."
Gu Yunting suppressed a laugh and reached out to rub Zheng Jiayu's head: "Why are you speaking such blunt truths?"
The intimacy between the two was so glaring to Shen Lin.
"Gu Yunting, do you think you can get rid of me like this? Let me tell you, I won't let this go. You can only be mine."
Zheng Jiayu frowned slightly, her eyes filled with dislike for Shen Lin.
She got up and went inside to retrieve her marriage certificate with Gu Yunting.
"This is a marriage agreement that my grandfather and Grandpa Gu made for me and Gu Yunting fifteen years ago. You want us to cancel the marriage agreement. Have you asked Grandpa Gu?" Although Zheng Jiayu had never met Grandpa Gu, she could tell from his actions that he immediately asked Gu Yunting to pick him up after receiving the news.
Grandpa Gu attached great importance to this marriage.
If Shen Lin really had the chance to marry Gu Yunting, she would have been with him long ago, instead of waiting until now.
Shen Lin looked defiantly at Gu Yunting: "Brother Yunting, are you just going to watch this bitch bully me like this?"
"Enough. Anyone with eyes can see who is bullying whom, Shen Lin. Jia Yu is my fiancée, and I will not marry anyone else but her."
Before Shen Lin could retort, Gu Yunting continued, "You said you came here for me, but I never said that."
"Apart from that, I haven't said anything about liking you. You're just imagining things."
After criticizing Shen Lin, Gu Yunting looked at Zheng Jiayu and said, "You don't need to pay any attention to this person."
"Are you sure we should just ignore it?"
"I have nothing to do with her. You are my fiancée. There's no need to talk to someone like that."
Zheng Jiayu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Gu Yunting really disliked Shen Lin, and even hated her.
For some reason, Zheng Jiayu was actually quite happy to see Gu Yunting belittling Shen Lin and showing her no respect.
Shen Lin glared venomously at Zheng Jiayu, who was smirking, and said, "Do you think you can marry Gu Yunting without any worries?"
"I won't let you succeed, really."
After saying that, he stormed off.
Gu Yunting was about to get angry when Zheng Jiayu stopped him.
"Why are you arguing so much with a spoiled little girl from her family?"
“She’s two years older than you. Anyone who didn’t know better would think she was much older. She speaks so maturely.” Gu Yunting found Zheng Jiayu’s shocked expression somewhat amusing.
However, he did find Zheng Jiayu quite adorable.
At least it's much more realistic than Shen Lin's.
