Chapter 284: Promotion to Deputy Battalion Commander
Bai Zhi couldn't bear to see Ye Qingbai so sad and disappointed.
But she had no choice but to tell him the truth.
In her past life, although Lu Shan and Gu Jingyi did not end up together, as far as she knew, she also did not have any romantic involvement with Ye Qingbai.
Lu Shan was still single when she was in her forties.
If Gu Jingyi were to sacrifice himself, she would definitely try her best to bring Lu Shan and Ye Qingbai together.
As for age, Lu Shan is only three years older than him.
It's precisely this age difference that makes it possible to "hold a gold brick" (a metaphor for achieving great success).
That's not a problem at all.
But when it comes to matters of the heart, as the name suggests, the most important thing is the word "feelings".
As long as there is affection between two people and they are mutually attracted, age and gender will not be a problem.
Even though Ye Qingbai and Lu Shan were compatible in every other aspect, they lacked the subtle emotions between a man and a woman.
Therefore, even though she was a reincarnated person, and even though she was Ye Qingbai's cousin, she couldn't presumptuously try to bring them together.
Bai Zhi's brain cells were excited after watching the performance, and coupled with her conversation with Ye Qingbai, her thoughts were overflowing, and she lay in bed unable to fall asleep for a long time.
She was given a second chance at life and hoped to help those who had suffered tragic fates in her previous life, to the best of her ability.
So far, she is very gratified that Ye Tiandong has been able to get a divorce and get rid of the cuckold's horns.
Her wedding to Lu Ye was imminent, and their fates, as they were now, were completely different from the trajectory of their previous lives.
It completely changed the course of her fate.
At least, Lu Ye has regained his health.
This is the most important thing.
Only when people have a healthy body and a healthy mind can they have the opportunity to create more value.
Xie Zheng and Lu Ye have essentially reconciled.
Her biggest wish right now is for Lu Shan and Gu Jingyi's story to have a happy ending.
But she herself doesn't know where Gu Jingyi is.
She couldn't let Gu Jingyi find out about him before he had suffered so much pain.
She couldn't be too direct in telling Lu Shan and the others about Gu Jingyi's situation.
Because she simply couldn't explain to them how she knew all this.
She might also be investigated as a suspect.
The key issue is that she has no idea where Gu Jingyi is.
Moreover, based on her intuition, she had a premonition that Gu Jingyi's whereabouts were unknown, and that he was probably not missing but rather sent on a special mission.
If that's the case, then no one can interfere.
We can only wait passively.
Finding the person ahead of schedule means the mission has failed.
Bai Zhi tossed and turned for a while, then, thinking about having to get up early for work the next day, she forced herself to fall asleep.
As the crowing of roosters echoed through the morning, two slender, fair arms stretched lazily out from under the pink quilt on the bed in the north room.
Bai Zhi stretched and pulled back the floral curtains. The morning light shone through the window onto the bed. She didn't stay in bed; she threw off the covers, sprang up, and got dressed.
Upon opening the door, I was suddenly confronted with two men in the courtyard.
When they saw her come out, they both looked over at the same time.
"Lu Ye, why are you here so early?" Bai Zhi looked at the increasingly handsome and energetic man, her eyes filled with uncontrollable love.
She really missed him after not seeing him for so many days.
Last night, in the darkness and with so many people around, she didn't get a good look at him.
Lu Ye approached her and said softly, "I got up early to bring you breakfast."
"I bought steamed buns and porridge. Hurry up and wash up before eating. Grandpa's up too."
"good."
Ye Qingbai stood there with his arms crossed and laughed, "Cousin, look how considerate your brother Ye is to you. Even my second grandfather and I are benefiting from it. We don't have to cook today; we can eat what's ready."
Ye Qingbai remained calm and full of energy.
There was no such thing as being depressed after a breakup.
Seeing this, Bai Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.
She had been worried that Ye Qingbai would be heartbroken because he couldn't win over his goddess, but seeing his current state of mind, she felt relieved.
The young men who joined the army had all received ideological and political education.
They have a strong sense of righteousness in their hearts, so they won't be troubled or entangled by matters of love and romance.
After Bai Zhi washed up, when she entered the room, Ye Rufeng was already sitting in the main seat as usual.
Read medical books.
Bai Zhi couldn't help but complain, "Grandpa, you're seeing doctors at night and in the morning, is it really necessary to be so serious? Let's balance work and rest. You're already a miracle doctor, don't overwork yourself."
Upon hearing her teasing words, Ye Rufeng raised his eyes, lifted his eyelids, and said calmly, "I'll keep learning as long as I live."
Bai Zhi's lips twitched slightly as she placed the porridge in front of the old man. "Eat your food, then you can continue learning."
Ye Qingbai and Lu Ye sat down at the lower end of the table. Ye Qingbai was full of excitement. "Second Grandfather, stop reading for now. I have good news to announce."
Upon hearing this, Ye Rufeng glanced at him indifferently and asked, "You're no longer single?"
Ye Qingbai, "!!!"
Bai Zhi, "..."
That old man really knows how to bring up the most sensitive topics; he's deliberately trying to hurt people's feelings.
Ye Qingbai's originally enthusiastic and handsome face became listless.
However, he quickly regained his energy and spirits.
"It's not my business." Ye Qingbai temporarily put aside his personal feelings and looked at Lu Ye beside him with a proud expression.
"It's my brother Ye's happy occasion."
Upon hearing this, both Ye Rufeng and Bai Zhi looked at Lu Ye simultaneously.
They knew about Lu Ye's happy news.
It's just getting married, right?
Does that mean the marriage certificate application has been approved?
This doesn't seem surprising.
Bai Zhi comes from a clean family background. Although her father is not very helpful, he has never done anything illegal or disorderly.
There were absolutely no problems with the background check.
The grandfather and grandson were thinking about the same thing, so they weren't very interested in the happy news Ye Qingbai mentioned.
"Second Grandfather, Cousin, why aren't you two curious at all? This is a big deal." Ye Qingbai expressed his dissatisfaction with their calm reaction.
Bai Zhi sympathized with Ye Qingbai's love affair, which ended before it even began, so she was especially accommodating and cooperative today.
So, she turned into a curious child, looking at Ye Qingbai with expectant eyes, and asked, "Cousin, what's the good news? Tell us quickly, we're all so curious."
"Guess," Ye Qingbai said mysteriously.
Bai Zhi, "......."
With a steamed bun in her mouth, she shook her head, "Never mind."
Although she felt some sympathy for Ye Qingbai, it wasn't much.
I won't waste my time playing hide-and-seek with him.
She needs to finish eating quickly so she can get to work.
"Cousin, you're such a spoilsport."
Bai Zhi patiently coaxed a child, "I have to go to work. Can you guess when I get back tonight?"
"No need, I can't wait to announce this good news."
Ye Qingbai stood up solemnly and saluted Lu Ye. "Deputy Battalion Commander, Ye Qingbai, the platoon leader of the second platoon of the third company, requests permission to announce your good news."
Bai Zhi, "???"
"Lu Ye, you've been promoted to deputy battalion commander?" Bai Zhi hadn't even swallowed all the bun in her mouth yet. She swallowed hard and looked at Lu Ye with surprise and joy to confirm.
Ye Rufeng's indifferent gaze flickered slightly as he looked at Lu Ye.
His eyes betrayed his admiration.
