"Since you're the first customer to request this, we'll give you a special price—the same as for a solo portrait, but with the same number of photos."
The customer was overjoyed when she heard this. She had originally wanted to give it a try, but she didn't expect the other party to agree so readily. Not only did he give her the same price discount as for individual photos, she immediately made an appointment for the shooting time of two scenes.
The matter was resolved easily and perfectly, but the waves stirred in Shao Jingque's heart could not calm down for a long time.
Why did her heart suddenly skip a beat at that moment? She felt as if Lu Zhan was standing outside the window. She even smelled the fragrance of wintersweet flowers at the tip of her nose!
But Lu Zhan should be in the Henan Provincial Military District Hospital at this moment, so how could he appear outside the photo studio?
Shao Jingque's eyelashes trembled, and she heard someone calling her from behind in a trance. She looked closely and saw that it was the guest she had just chatted with.
The next second, she raised the corners of her mouth and went to greet the customers with a smile——
After all, wild thoughts will only affect the speed at which she makes money!
Lu Zhan took Lu Qiuya to the military district guesthouse, and the person who received them happened to be the front desk clerk who had received him and Shao Jingque for the first time.
The front desk clerk was very surprised to see Lu Zhan:
"Captain Lu? You're back! It's great to see you back safely!"
Lu Zhan had a faint smile on his face:
"Thank you, please help me get a single room."
The front desk clerk was a little surprised and stared at Lu Qiuya with suspicion.
With the noodle shop owner's "previous experience", Lu Qiuya had already guessed what the front desk clerk was thinking, and introduced herself somewhat speechlessly:
"I'm his sister, and this is my student ID."
The front desk clerk had a slightly awkward smile on his face, but his hands honestly turned over the student ID card that Lu Qiuya handed over. He saw that there was indeed her photo on it, and the three words "Lu Qiuya" were clearly written in the name column.
Since both of them have the surname Lu, she must be Captain Lu’s sister!
The front desk clerk's smile finally became genuine. He took out the registration book and explained while writing:
"I'm sorry, our guesthouse requires registration and needs to check ID. It's just a routine procedure."
Lu Zhan nodded, without any objection. People staying in the military district guesthouse should have been screened more strictly.
He remembered the news he had asked Liu Jincai to confirm for him before, and his heart suddenly moved.
At this time, the front desk clerk registered and handed over the key:
"Registered, room 204 on the second floor."
Lu Zhan took the key and handed it to Lu Qiuya:
"Go back to your room and rest. I'll call you before dinner."
After traveling for two days and one night, and then walking all the way from the train station back to the military guesthouse, Lu Qiuya was already exhausted. She nodded obediently, took the key and went upstairs.
The front desk clerk thought Lu Zhan would leave soon, so he stood there ready to say goodbye to him.
Unexpectedly, Lu Zhan stood there in silence for a while, then suddenly spoke:
"Shao Jingque...Which room does she live in?"
This question confused the front desk clerk directly.
Didn’t Captain Lu’s wife check out a long time ago?
Could it be that Captain Lu was asking which room his wife had lived in before?
Did Captain Lu know that there was a snake in his wife's room and was worried that his sister would also live in that room?
The front desk clerk answered hesitantly:
"My sister-in-law used to live in room 202, not room 204."
"And Captain Lu, don't worry. The last time my sister-in-law was almost bitten by a snake, it was all because of the evil deeds of that evil person Xiaoli!"
"Since then, our guesthouse has strengthened safety management in this area and regularly sprays rat and snake repellent. Now there will definitely be no more snake bites."
The front desk clerk's answer contained so much information that Lu Zhan didn't know where to start.
What does "before" mean?
Could it be that Shao Jingque is no longer living in the military district guesthouse?
Lu Zhan's heart sank as he recalled her condition when she left, and there had been no news of her since then. It was as if she had never appeared in front of him again, just as he wished.
In this case, if she returned to Ning City, it is very likely that she would choose to move out of the military district guesthouse.
And what about being bitten by a snake? What about that?
During the time Shao Jingque was taking care of him in the hospital, she chattered a lot in his ear every day like a sparrow, but she never mentioned that she was almost bitten by a snake when she was staying in the military guesthouse. And it seemed to be man-made, not an accident?
"I don't know about her being bitten by a snake. Tell me about it."
The front desk clerk wished he could shut up about his talkative mouth.
Now that's good. Captain Lu already has great prestige in the army, and he has made great contributions this time. I heard that a commendation meeting will be held when he returns, and maybe Captain Lu's rank will be raised at that time.
If she offends him, the director of their guesthouse will definitely not forgive her!
But seeing Lu Zhan's serious expression, the front desk clerk didn't dare to hide anything and could only tell him everything.
When Lu Zhan heard that Shao Jingque was rescued by Song Yangyu who came from Beijing, his brows were furrowed so tightly that they could almost pinch a mosquito to death.
No wonder the two seemed so familiar with each other when they met in his ward. It turned out that they had such an intersection.
For a moment, Lu Zhan felt complicated.
Judging from the interrogation of him by Song Yangyu in the Henan Provincial Military District Hospital, Song Yangyu's purpose of coming to Ning City was obvious, and it must have been to investigate his relevant situation.
