After the train stopped, people who wanted to board, people who were seeing off passengers, and people who were picking up passengers squeezed forward.
Guan Wenru was afraid that she couldn't squeeze through, so she simply continued to stand on high ground and tried her best to stand on tiptoe to see.
Three minutes later, He Yanzhi and the others got out of the car.
He was wearing a faded military uniform, staring sternly at the man in front of him. "Third Battalion Commander! Form ranks! Check equipment, not a single one can be missing! And move quickly!"
The battalion commander immediately saluted, "Yes, sir! Regimental commander!"
He turned to the ranks and shouted, "Attention! Right dress! All right!"
The soldiers moved quickly, their footsteps making a clattering sound.
He Yanzhi's gaze swept across the group, when suddenly, a vibrant red flash caught his weary peripheral vision.
His body suddenly stiffened, as if he had been nailed to the spot.
This dress looks so familiar…
He turned his head sharply, his gaze piercing through the throng of people, and precisely caught sight of that bright red!
A figure in a long red dress stood quietly by a pillar at the end of the platform, watching him.
Guan Wenru noticed the soldiers' good posture the moment they got out of the vehicle!
He Yanzhi was tall, and she noticed him at a glance.
She just couldn't squeeze through.
So I can only stand.
Seeing that He Yanzhi had finally noticed her, she raised her hand and waved vigorously.
Time seemed to stand still.
The bustling platform, the orderly soldiers, the billowing steam... all the backgrounds instantly blurred and faded.
In their world, only each other remained.
He Yanzhi's expression was unusually out of control; his lips parted slightly, and he forgot to breathe.
Guan Wenru stared at him intently, her clear eyes instantly welling up with tears.
Once he came to his senses, He Yanzhi gently pushed through the crowd and ran towards her as fast as he could!
As he approached, Guan Wenru jumped off the platform and ran towards him.
He Yanzhi opened his arms, and the two of them crashed heavily into each other's embrace!
He used all his strength to hold Guan Wenru tightly in his arms, his arms trembling from the force.
Guan Wenru buried her face deep into his chest, which smelled of gunpowder and sweat, and wrapped her arms tightly around his waist, as if she wanted to embed herself into his body.
"It really is you!" He Yanzhi whispered repeatedly in her ear, his voice thick with emotion, "Wenru! It really is you!"
Guan Wenru sobbed silently in his arms, her body heaving violently, her words incoherent, "It's me! You're finally back... He Yanzhi... He Yanzhi... Six years... More than six years..."
For more than six years, she has missed him terribly!
I'm going crazy thinking about it!
The only thing I can do is numb myself with work!
He Yan rested his chin on the top of her head, feeling the real touch, his voice choked with emotion, "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting so long..."
The two embraced tightly, forgetting the time, and didn't even notice that there were hardly any people left on the platform.
The soldiers were stunned when they noticed their commander's loss of control.
This was the first time they had ever seen this side of He Yanzhi!
The dignified regimental commander seemed like a completely different person!
Some soldiers wanted to laugh, but when they saw the trembling figure in the red dress in the commander's arms, they all silently looked away, with understanding and respect.
The train station announcements were still playing, but for them, the world consisted only of each other's heartbeats and the sobs that had finally erupted after six years of suppressed emotions.
After an unknown amount of time, He Yanzhi finally let go, cupping her face in his hands and examining her closely.
More than six years have passed, and she has matured a lot, becoming incredibly beautiful.
Guan Wenru looked at his unshaven, travel-worn face through teary eyes, her fingers trembling as she touched it. "You're so dark...and you've lost so much weight...does it still hurt? Those wounds..."
He Yanzhi grabbed her icy hand and pressed it tightly against his face, his rough stubble brushing against her palm. "It doesn't hurt! Seeing you makes everything feel better! Why did you come?"
Guan Wenru's cheeks flushed slightly. "My man is coming back today! Even if the sky falls, I'll come to pick him up! Comrade He Yanzhi, I... I've been waiting for you!"
As she spoke, she buried her face deeply in his chest again.
He Yanzhi simply hugged her tighter, using all his strength, as if he wanted to crush the six years of separation into this moment of embrace.
...
Seeing that they seemed determined to keep hugging, Wan Tao couldn't bear it any longer. He hobbled closer, leaning on his crutch, a mischievous smile on his face.
"Ahem! Commander He, this is in public, can't you be a little more mindful of your image? Don't you care about organizational discipline?"
"!" Upon hearing the sound, Guan Wenru's body stiffened abruptly. She quickly lifted her head from He Yanzhi's embrace and looked in the direction of the sound.
When she saw who was speaking, her eyes widened instantly, and her face was filled with disbelief.
"Commissar Wan...Commissar Wan?! You...you...you're not...you're not..."
She could barely utter that word!
Didn't Wan Tao sacrifice himself a few years ago?!
It was because of his sacrifice that Gu Siyu left without hesitation.
Moreover, three years ago, Gu Siyu brought her newlywed husband back and deliberately went to the feed processing plant to show off how happy she was now!
Wan Tao is still alive today…
That…
Isn't Gu Siyu committing bigamy?
