Li Xue felt that she was really lucky today. She didn't run into Xue Yanchen at the military canteen, but she accidentally ran into him at the state-run restaurant.
There aren't as many people here as in the military canteen. Should she take the initiative to go over and say hello to him?
She thought about it for a moment. In the first place, she was the one who was going to take the initiative to pursue Xue Yanchen. What was wrong with taking the initiative to say hello to him?
She suddenly realized that she was being too hesitant and indecisive, which wasn't like her at all.
Oh, and she wanted to order food too. The two of them huddled together in front of the window, and they could easily start a conversation.
She said to Xu Xin, "Xin Xin, sit down and wait a moment, I'll go order."
Xu Xin recognized Xue Yanchen and knew what Li Xue was going to do. She gave Li Xue a thumbs-up and said, "Xue'er, good luck! I wish you success!"
Li Xue nodded, hummed in agreement, and then walked gracefully toward Xue Yanchen.
Xue Yanchen was looking at the menu written on the blackboard when Li Xue suddenly walked over and said as if they were old friends, "What a coincidence, Battalion Commander Xue, you're eating here too."
Xue Yanchen glanced at her indifferently, gave a perfunctory "hmm," and then continued looking at the blackboard.
Li Xue noticed his cold attitude and frowned slightly.
But then she thought, isn't that how all wood is? Cold and hard. She just needs to be more proactive.
So she spoke to Xue Yanchen again: "Battalion Commander Xue."
At this moment, Xue Yanchen discovered a new dish. Whether he heard her or not, he turned around and went to find Luo Jingyan and Grandma Xue to ask them if they wanted to eat the dish.
"Grandma, Jingyan, would you like some stir-fried bamboo shoots with cured pork?"
After Xue Yanchen left the window, Li Xue's gaze naturally followed him. When she saw Xue Yanchen walk up to a very pretty girl, her heart sank.
Beautiful women generally have a natural sense of hostility towards women who are more beautiful than themselves.
And Luo Jingyan was the prettier one than her. Even if she didn't want to admit it, she couldn't deny the fact that she had seen it with her own eyes.
However, this was not the most disappointing thing for her.
She noticed that Xue Yanchen and the girl seemed very close. When he spoke to the girl, his eyes seemed to light up, and the corners of his lips naturally turned up, as if the joy in his heart was written all over his face.
And he hasn't even given me a second glance yet.
The "hmm" she just made was also icy cold, as if she owed him several hundred dollars.
What exactly is the relationship between this girl and him?
Her father said that Xue Yanchen didn't have a girlfriend yet, and there was no news of him having a girlfriend in the military region... Could this girl be his sister?
She stood at the window, staring blankly in that direction. At the same time, Luo Jingyan had already noticed her and could tell that she was deliberately moving closer to Xue Yanchen.
Luo Jingyan said to Xue Yanchen, "The food at the state-run restaurants here is different from that in An County. Let's see what other good food there is."
"good."
Xue Yanchen really wanted to take her hand, but he had to consider the opinions of other people around them, so he just walked alongside her.
Luo Jingyan arrived at the small blackboard by the window before Xue Yanchen, while Li Xue remained there, waiting for her second "encounter" with Xue Yanchen.
As the two girls got closer, Luo Jingyan's stunningly beautiful face, as lovely as a lotus emerging from water, was fully revealed to Li Xue. Li Xue was once again subjected to a visually overwhelming attack, and felt even more ashamed of herself.
She believed herself to be exceptionally beautiful. Not only would she not be more beautiful than her in the military region, but she would also find it difficult to find a girl with a better appearance outside of the military.
However, in front of Luo Jingyan, she instantly lost all confidence in her appearance.
She took a deep breath and calmed herself down. It was alright. After all, this girl was just Xue Yanchen's younger sister. Xue Yanchen was handsome, so his sister should be stunningly beautiful too.
She can't be so petty; she can't even stand his sister.
She mustered her courage and looked at Xue Yanchen again: "Battalion Commander Xue, your sister is really beautiful!"
"younger sister?"
Luo Jingyan and Xue Yanchen were both surprised and amused.
Xue Yanchen said, "She is not my sister."
If we're really going to consider her a younger sister, she can only be my affectionate younger sister.
"Then she's your sister?"
Anyway, she wasn't going to be his girlfriend, and she didn't want the girl in front of her to be Xue Yanchen's girlfriend.
Neither Luo Jingyan nor Xue Yanchen answered her. Luo Jingyan pointed to a dish of bell peppers and nameko mushrooms on the blackboard, her tone coquettish: "Yanchen, I want to eat this."
Xue Yanchen was slightly taken aback. Was his wife just being affectionate with him? Her voice was so soft and sweet that it captivated him, and his smile deepened: "Okay, I'll order this one."
He looked at her tenderly, his voice filled with boundless affection, and even a hint of ingratiation.
Seeing that they seemed to be deeply in love, Li Xue began to understand their relationship. They really were a couple.
In a short time, she felt as if a piston had been inserted into her chest cavity and was pressing down, making her feel extremely tight in her chest and unable to breathe.
Luo Jingyan's beautiful, watery eyes swept over Li Xue. The woman in front of her was indeed somewhat attractive, but not particularly outstanding.
"Comrade, you must be Yanchen's comrade-in-arms. Let me introduce myself. I am Yanchen's fiancée. Oh, we will be getting married soon and becoming husband and wife. I don't know how your relationship with Yanchen is. You two seem to know each other very well. I invited him here today because I want to marry him. When we get married, I would like to invite you to our wedding banquet and have some wedding candy. I wonder if you would be willing?"
