"Why, why? Don't you like me?"
She went through so much trouble just to marry Gu Rongzheng. Now she says she doesn't want to get married. Then, wouldn't the phone call he talked about this morning be nonsense?
"That's not the reason. Listen to me carefully."
"I just went back home and discussed our marriage with my mother, but there were some unexpected things. Your marriage to me is a military marriage, so we need to do a background check. We found out your identity and you are from a red capitalist family, but your current mother is still in prison."
"If we get married now, it will affect my career, so my parents suggested that we postpone the wedding... What do you think?"
Hearing these words, Lu Mianmian was shocked. She didn't expect that Gu Rongzheng had figured out her identity so quickly.
What could she do? She could only agree.
"I...no, you've found out everything. So, what's my name?"
Knowing that he had done a background check on her, Lu Mianmian broke out in a cold sweat, but she remained calm.
"Well, I found out everything. Your name isn't Chuchu, but Jiang Tangtang. You have an older sister whose whereabouts are unknown, a younger brother in a juvenile detention center, and both your parents are in prison. I know all this."
Since the investigation has already been done, there is no need to hide it and create resentment between the two of them, so Gu Rongzheng said it out openly.
When Lu Mianmian heard the three words "Jiang Tangtang", she felt very uncomfortable, but she still forced an awkward smile.
"Oh... so you know, I forgot some things. I don't remember much of what you said."
"It's okay. If you don't remember, I'll remember it for you. They're just old memories anyway, so just forget them."
Gu Rongzheng felt sorry for her family's situation, and from his words, he also wanted her to rely on him.
At least this way, she won't have such a hard time.
Lu Mianmian bit her lip, her eyes as cunning as a young fox, and she was truly moved by these words.
"You are so stupid, Rong Zheng."
"No, I will get promoted as soon as possible. As soon as I settle down, I will come to marry you. You don't have to worry about anything else. Just wait for me."
While speaking, Gu Rongzheng accidentally caught a glimpse of her hair.
In his impression, Jiang Tangtang always had long, smooth black hair, which was very dazzling when illuminated by the sun, and was much longer than it is now.
"Did you get a haircut? I remember your hair used to be much longer."
She was afraid that someone would notice her clues. When Lu Mianmian heard this, she immediately panicked and sat up quickly.
"Oh, was my hair really long before? I don't even remember it. Don't you think I look good with short hair? Or do you prefer long hair?"
When they were young, their mother would grow their hair to the same length so that they could have the same hairstyle.
Later, her mother died. In order to distinguish herself from Jiang Tangtang, she deliberately cut her hair much shorter, so Jiang Tangtang was the only one with long hair in the family.
"No, I just saw..."
But in his heart, he missed Jiang Tangtang with long hair more. Maybe what he missed was not the hair, but the time when they protected each other.
"Now, don't just say it, I promise you, I will wait for you, we agreed that now, you must marry me!"
Lu Mianmian remembered clearly that when she met Gu Rongzheng in her previous life, he was wearing a military uniform, and if she remembered correctly, the rank on his shoulder should be that of a brigade commander.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have fallen in love with this man at first sight.
If getting married at this time would affect his promotion, Lu Mianmian would rather wait until his promotion is stable before getting married. After all, she will spend her whole life with him, so she definitely hopes that he will become a higher-ranking official.
Although they had not been together for a long time, she knew that this man would not make empty promises. To her, this was the best marriage she could choose at the moment.
"I promise you, I, Gu Rongzheng, will marry Jiang Tangtang!"
His tone was firm, both as a reassurance and to reassure the other party.
When she heard the name Jiang Tangtang again, a hint of imperceptible contempt flashed in Lu Mianmian's eyes, and she deliberately changed the subject.
