"Is that so... Then when will he come back?" Shen Li said regretfully.
“I don’t know about that either.” The guard felt a little sympathetic towards her, as he saw that it was not easy for such a pretty girl to come all the way here.
But there was no other way. Discipline was above all else here. Captain Shen had to come and confirm that this was his person before they would arrange for her to come in and provide her with accommodation.
"Why don't you stay in a guesthouse for a few days and wait?" asked the guard.
"It's the only way." Shen Li nodded, got up and left with her bag on her back.
After she took a few steps, she ran into a tall and slender figure head-on.
Shen Li's eyes lit up.
Isn't this the soldier I met on the road?
At this moment, he was standing in front of her in a tall dark green military uniform. The man had an upright posture, a calm temperament, was dignified and steady, his facial features were deep and three-dimensional, his edges and corners were clear, he was firm and hard, giving people a sense of intimidation without even being angry.
"Comrade soldier, you are here too?" Shen Li's eyes lit up.
"Yeah." Lu Jingchuan nodded.
"Captain Lu, you're just in time. Your target just came to see you..." The guard on guard walked over.
"Who?" Lu Jingchuan's deep and three-dimensional eyebrows wrinkled slightly.
"Yes, it's the one next to you!" The guard saw Shen Li standing next to Lu Jingchuan, and he smiled, "Go stand guard, you two can have a good chat."
Soon, the guards went to stand guard.
"You looking for 놖?"
"You are... Lu Jingchuan?"
They both spoke at the same time.
Shen Li didn't expect that the man she met at the train station was Lu Jingchuan!
There is such a thing under here!
"Yes, it's Lu Jingchuan." Lu Jingchuan said, looking at her inquiringly, "The person you're talking about is Lu Jingchuan?"
"Yes." Shen Li nodded. "My name is Shen Li, and I'm the youngest daughter of the Shen family. Originally, your engagement partner was Shen Mengyue, but Shen Mengyue got engaged to an educated youth from our village, so your engagement partner became You. So, I'm here to marry you."
But... I don't know if he would be willing.
Lu Jingchuan never thought that this cute girl in front of him would be his engagement partner!
He also thought...
only……
"You don't understand what I'm thinking. I'm 10 years older than you." Lu Jingchuan said in a deep voice.
This little girl was only nineteen years old. She was so young and looked so petite... and he was old enough to be her uncle.
"It's okay, age is good." Shen Li smiled with curved lips, her smile was sweeter than cotton candy, "Age will be caring."
"I have two children." Lu Jingchuan pursed his sexy thin lips, "One is 6 years old and the other is 3 years old."
Most girls are not willing to be someone else's stepmother.
Lu Jingchuan thought Shen Li would give up and back off, but the little girl in front of him just smiled faintly and said, "Yeah."
Her reaction...isn't it too calm?
Is she willing to raise a child for someone else?
"These two children are your comrade's. Your comrade died to protect you. You promised them that you would take good care of these two children. Plus, you are very busy at work, and you don't have much time and energy to have your own children. Therefore, if you marry you, you won't be able to have children in the next three to five years." Lu Jingchuan's eyes were complicated.
He had already regarded the two children as his own, and he would fully take care of the children's feelings.
"Yeah, I understand." Shen Li nodded obediently, smiling softly and sweetly.
Raising a child is a piece of cake for her.
In her previous life, Song Qingshan's two children, one was a gangster who was ignorant and only knew how to skip classes and fight, but she was able to train him into a scientific researcher, and the other was a girl who was born weak and stuttered, but she was able to train her into a famous lawyer... and Lu Jingchuan's children were naturally not difficult for her.
When Shen Mengyue returned to her parents' home a few years ago, she saw the two children. They were kind and smart children, much better than Song Qingshan's two children. It would not take too much energy to raise them. Moreover, the two children were not ungrateful. They knew how to repay kindness, otherwise they would not have gone crazy to take revenge on Shen Mengyue after Lu Jingchuan's sacrifice and took over their lives.
"Are you sure?" Lu Jingchuan looked at her with complicated eyes.
"Yes, I'm sure." Shen Li nodded. "You ask these questions, does that mean you don't like me? If you didn't like me, you wouldn't stay here so stubbornly. You'd leave now."
"No," Lu Jingchuan said quickly, his deep eyes fixed on the pretty girl in front of him, "Of course I chose you."
In fact, the moment he saw her on the train, he was already quietly moved.
After meeting her, he finally understood what love at first sight in TV dramas meant.
"You are very beautiful and young, you have a good personality, and you are a very nice person... I just feel that these conditions are not worthy of you." Lu Jingchuan's voice was low, and there was a hint of loneliness on his cold and hard face.
"Your conditions are also very good." Shen Li's dark and clear eyes curved and looked at him with a smile, "You are a military officer who protects the country! As for the problems you mentioned, I think they are not problems."
"I'm just afraid that I'll wrong you..." Lu Jingchuan said in a deep voice, "If you're willing, you can stay and live with us for a while. If you regret it, you can leave at any time," he paused, "When the time comes, I'll give you some money."
"You won't regret it." Shen Li smiled with her lips bent, looking at him with her dark almond eyes, and said.
Lu Jingchuan is a good and responsible man. Marrying him is a thousand times or ten thousand times better than marrying Song Qingshan.
"Okay, then I'll take you to settle down." Lu Jingchuan said. He took the bag from Shen Li's shoulders and walked inside.
Shen Li followed him step by step, feeling the man deliberately slowing down his pace, and the corners of her lips curved slightly.
On the way, the two passed by a rubber playground where soldiers in uniform were running in unison.
"One, two, one."
"One, two, one."
The soldiers' slogans were deafening.
Seeing Shen Li, all the soldiers who were doing drills stared at her!
I didn't expect that there would be a woman around Deputy Captain Lu who has never been close to women!
This woman must be the object of Vice Captain Lu’s affection!
This is so beautiful!
They have never seen such a beautiful girl in their lives!
The skin is so moist and white like tofu! The dark and shiny eyes are like clear spring water!
And this figure... this slender curve, this waist that is not too small...
Deputy Captain Lu is so lucky!
Lu Jingchuan took Shen Li to his residence.
It was a three-story building built of green bricks and red tiles, surrounded by bare ground.
The living room is paved with pure white tiles. The leather sofa is soft and comfortable. Next to it is a rectangular glass-top coffee table. Opposite the sofa is a brown solid wood TV cabinet. On the TV cabinet is a color TV, some small children's toys, and next to it is a half-person-high refrigerator.
There are three bedrooms, a bathroom, and a spacious balcony with a washing machine.
In that era, there were only a few families that could afford a color TV, a refrigerator, and a washing machine. It was obvious that Lu Jingchuan's family was quite well off.
It's just that the toys in the house are piled everywhere, and the floor is not cleaned up. It looks dirty and messy.
"The two kids haven't finished school yet," Lu Jingchuan said. "They didn't clean up in advance, so the house is quite messy."
"Very good." Shen Li put her little blanket on the sofa, "Where are the two children?"
"One is in the kindergarten, and the other is in the first grade. I have to pick them up from school now." Lu Jingchuan said, looking at the clock on the wall.
He took out fifty yuan from his pocket and handed it to Shen Li, "You just got here, and there are many things you need to buy. Take this money, and go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the courtyard to buy whatever you want."
Shen Li was stunned.
Giving her fifty bucks right after meeting her?
This man is too simple!
"If it's not enough, just tell me. I still have more." Lu Jingchuan's deep eyes fell on Shen Li, his voice was low and sexy, "Don't be reluctant to spend money."
Shen Li nodded, "Okay."
All her life, Song Qingshan used her hard-earned money to support women outside. It would be fine if she supported a gigolo, but she also supported the gigolo's woman! In this life, an old man who was not married was willing to spend money on her as soon as he met her!
Shen Li felt more and more that she should change her partner for this kiss!
"As for where to stay, the bedroom on the far left is a guest room. You can stay here." Lu Jingchuan said. He looked at the clock on the wall below and said, "It's time to pick up the kids from school."
"Yeah." Shen Li watched Lu Jingchuan leave. She looked around and opened the refrigerator.
The two children would definitely have dinner when they got home later, so she would prepare dinner and wait for them to come back.
Shen Li opened the refrigerator and looked inside. The things inside were terrible. There was not even an egg. There were some beans with green sprouts and some rotten onions. There was nothing else.
This is an island, but there is not a single piece of seafood in the refrigerator.
Shen Li didn't think much about it. She thought that there was nothing in the refrigerator because Lu Jingchuan was too busy to take good care of the children. She took out the beans and onions and threw them into the trash can.
"What are you doing?!" At this time, a woman in her twenties wearing a white floral shirt and blue trousers walked in with a stern face. Her round face was a little yellowish and there were a few yellow spots on the bridge of her nose. At this time, she quickly took out the things in the trash can and said angrily, "Who are you? Breaking into someone's house and throwing their things!"
