Xue Yanchen was clearly pleasantly surprised to hear the news and wanted to see them as soon as possible, without even thinking about why they had come here.
He eagerly pulled the soldier who brought the news along, saying, "Come on, come on, take me to see them quickly."
Following the soldier to one of the exits, he saw Grandma Xue and Luo Jingyan waiting outside. He hurried over, his smile brighter than the sunshine.
"Grandma, Jingyan. Why did you come all of a sudden? Didn't I tell you we were going back in the next couple of days?"
Grandma Xue, without bothering to explain anything else, hurriedly asked him, "Have you completed your discharge procedures?"
"Not yet. I was just about to go ask the regimental commander about it. He promised to give me an answer today. He said he would let me leave the army if the marriage application was not approved. The result will definitely be the second one."
*Smack!* Old Mrs. Xue slapped a bag at him.
"Look what's in here? Your wife and I came all this way to bring you this."
"What's this?"
Xue Yanchen was very puzzled. What could be so important that his grandmother and wife would travel so far and rush to send it over?
"Why don't you open it and see for yourself?"
Xue Yanchen opened the bag, and inside were several bright red certificates of merit, along with thank-you letters and medals.
He took it out and looked at it; both the certificate and the thank-you letter had Luo Jingyan's name on them.
His wife has received so much praise.
Grandma, this?
"Take these things to your superiors and see if they'll approve your marriage application. Yanchen, these things can help Jingyan get rid of her hat, and you can marry her without leaving the military."
The man immediately jumped for joy, thankful for his grandmother.
"Grandma, Jingyan, I'll hand these things over now. Please wait here for me a moment."
"Okay, go quickly."
Xue Yanchen went to see Commander Jiang first, but he did not hand over the items directly to Commander Jiang. At that time, there was no photocopying technology, and there was only one copy of these items. Even if he trusted Commander Jiang, he still needed to keep a necessary backup plan.
If these things are lost, there will never be a second copy, so a third or fourth person needs to be present.
When Commander Jiang saw him rushing over in such a hurry, he knew he must be there to inquire about his discharge from the army. He quickly grabbed his hat and tried to run away.
"Yanchen, I just got a call and I have to go to a very important meeting. I'll talk to you about it when I get back."
"Commander, what kind of meeting are you going to? You'll definitely have to meet with a lot of leaders. Should we ask the political commissar to come along?"
Commander Jiang couldn't understand what he meant.
"I'll go by myself, no need to call him."
"That's fine, I'll go with you. There are a lot of leaders there, so it'll be easier for me to get things done."
"What?" Commander Jiang's eyes widened. "You're going too? Don't worry, your application will be approved."
"But Commander, you promised to give me an answer today."
"I, I, it's just that the approval from above hasn't come through yet."
Xue Yanchen refused to let him go: "Commander, you promised me that day, and a gentleman's word is as good as his bond. However, I'm not in a hurry to pursue this now. I have something very important to give you, and these things should be able to help my girlfriend get rid of the cheating label."
Upon hearing his words, Commander Jiang immediately perked up.
If his girlfriend is removed from the "Five Black Categories" label, then their marriage application will be approved smoothly, and Xue Yanchen will not have to face discharge from the army.
Then why is he still hiding?
He immediately stood up straight, and in an instant, the authority and imposing presence of a leader were completely restored. His voice was calm and steady as he asked, "What is this? Let me see it quickly."
Xue Yanchen handed him the item, and after looking at it, he exclaimed with delight, "Wow, your girlfriend is amazing! She's not only caught fugitives and human traffickers, but she's also an anti-terrorism heroine. That's incredible!"
"Commander, this should be enough to get my boyfriend out of this mess, right?"
Commander Jiang didn't dare to speak too confidently: "There shouldn't be any problems, but the specifics still need to be reviewed and discussed by other leaders in the organization. However, in my opinion, there shouldn't be any problems."
"Then let's go find the political commissar together. The three of us will go together and hand these documents over to the division commander."
"Okay, let's go find Lao Xing now."
Xue Yanchen gave him a dismissive look. "Weren't you in a hurry to go to a meeting?"
They found the regimental political commissar, who was also very surprised after seeing the certificates of merit and letters of thanks.
I couldn't help but praise, "Xiao Xue found a great partner!"
The three of them went to Commander Li's place together. Commander Li and Regiment Commander Jiang had the same idea that Xue Yanchen had come to discuss his discharge application. He was about to decline when Xue Yanchen placed a stack of documents in front of him.
Regiment Commander Jiang smiled and said, "Division Commander, this time we should approve Battalion Commander Xue's marriage application."
"What's the meaning?"
Division Commander Li glanced at Regiment Commander Jiang with suspicion, then looked at Xue Yanchen and the regimental political commissar. Xue Yanchen remained as calm and composed as ever, while the regimental political commissar had an expression of confidence about something.
He turned his gaze away and onto the documents on the table, which looked like certificates of merit or something similar.
He didn't yet know the purpose of these things, but Commander Jiang's words made him anything but happy. He didn't know how things were going with his daughter. What marriage application? The marriage application he needed to approve was his daughter's marriage application with Xue Yanchen.
He glanced casually at the certificates and awards, and Commander Jiang quickly unfolded them and the thank-you letters, then put the medals away.
"Commander, please take a good look."
This time, Commander Li couldn't help but look at those certificates of merit.
Six certificates of merit, two letters of appreciation, and one medal.
The same name appeared on both the award certificate and the thank-you letter: Luo Jingyan.
Xue Yanchen told him, "Luo Jingyan is my girlfriend's name."
When Commander Li saw the contents of those certificates and thank-you notes, he felt worse than if he had eaten a pile of excrement.
He couldn't believe that Xue Yanchen's partner was such an amazing woman, whose achievements were something many men couldn't even accomplish.
He only knew that Luo Jingyan was the descendant of the "Five Black Categories" and must be a delicate and weak girl who at most knew a few words. But now it seems that she is completely different.
The regimental political commissar said, "Commander, Comrade Xue's girlfriend is quite remarkable. Not only has she fought against human traffickers, helped the police catch bandits, and rescued children in danger, but she is also an anti-terrorism heroine. Those terrorists are ruthless killers, and Comrade Luo dared to fight them. She is truly a woman who is just as capable as any man."
The more he praised Commander Li, the uglier his expression became, but he didn't show it too obviously.
