After Huo Haocheng came out, he went straight to find Ruan Ruan and told her that Deng Yi had agreed. Then he took Ruan Ruan and Gu Jingyan to the backyard.
"You two chat for a bit, I'll come and call you when it's time to eat." After dropping them off and introducing them to each other, Ruan Ruan pulled Huo Haocheng back to the kitchen.
Huo Haocheng continued to help grill the fish. Ruan Ruan originally wanted to sneak back to see how they were chatting, but she was too embarrassed to be watched by Huo Haocheng and the other women, so she went back inside to continue their conversation and look after the children.
In the backyard, after Huo Haocheng and his wife left, Gu Jingyan carefully examined Deng Yi.
"How tall and how much do you weigh? Do you smoke and drink?" As the two walked toward the pavilion in the backyard, Gu Jingyan began to ask questions.
"I'm 185cm tall, weighed 75kg at my last physical exam, don't smoke, and don't drink alcohol," Deng Yi answered Gu Jingyan's question simply and clearly.
Afterwards, the two sat in the pavilion. Gu Jingyan noticed that his posture was rather casual, but his back was still very straight, and his clothes were also quite nice. She had deliberately moved closer to him while he was talking earlier and hadn't smelled any smoke, so it was true that he didn't smoke.
"Do you go on a drunken rampage when you drink?" Gu Jingyan had seen people who went on a drunken rampage and beat their wives and children half to death, so this was very important to her.
"No, as soldiers, we drink in moderation. We only drink a little and never get drunk or drink excessively. You can rest assured about that." As a soldier, especially a soldier in a special unit like theirs, one must be ready to go on missions at any time. Therefore, the regiment stipulates that drinking is generally not allowed, and even if one drinks, it is only a small amount.
"You know my job, so what do you think of it? Of course, I'll only go further in the future than I am now." Gu Jingyan didn't need someone to tell her what to do about her work, so she asked this to see how Deng Yi would answer. She knew he was the only son in his family, and if he wanted her to stay home and be a wife and mother after marriage, then forget it.
“That’s your job, I have no right to interfere. Of course, if you feel tired one day, you can go home.” Deng Yi didn’t find Gu Jingyan’s direct question unreasonable at all; on the contrary, he thought it was very good. He felt that Gu Jingyan was very straightforward and asked directly what she wanted to know. Given the special nature of their work, this kind of personality was very good.
Gu Jingyan was also very satisfied with Deng Yi's answer, and now she believed what Ruan Ruan had said about having the same ideals.
"I'm very satisfied with you right now. What about you? I was the one asking you all the questions. Do you have anything you want to ask me?" Gu Jingyan looked at Deng Yi with a smile, proving that she was in a good mood.
Just like her name, Yan, when she doesn't smile, is a cool and aloof beauty, unapproachable; when she smiles, she is charming and alluring, making people want to kiss her.
Seeing Gu Jingyan smile, Deng Yi forced himself to remain calm, but his heart was in turmoil. "No, I think you're fine the way you are."
"Okay, so we're officially dating now?" Seeing that he had no problems with her, Gu Jingyan was even happier. She just wanted to end the conversation with him as soon as possible and go back to tell them that Deng Yi had really fallen for her.
"Yes, then please take care of me in the future!" At this moment, Deng Yi was similar to Gu Jingyan, and he smiled and extended his hand to Gu Jingyan.
"Please take good care of me." Seeing him extend his hand, Gu Jingyan also extended her hand to shake his, but quickly separated them.
"Let's go back first. It's getting early, and it'll be time for dinner soon." With that, Gu Jingyan got up and started walking out.
Deng Yi followed behind her, putting the hand that Gu Jingyan had just held into his pocket. Only after she went inside did he return to the kitchen to find Huo Haocheng.
