Chapter 436 Not Getting Married
She thought she would never be able to find the watch again in her lifetime.
She didn't regret giving it away, nor did she regret selling it. But when she thought about it in her dreams at midnight, she would sigh. All the marks on this watch were proof of her years of hard work.
Sometimes, Lin Ting would raise her arm to check the time.
The empty wrist always made her feel uncomfortable, and it took her a long time to get used to it.
I didn’t expect that I would be able to have it again so soon!
"I know this thing means a lot to you, so I've already thought about how to get it back for you. After all, we have such a big merchant ship behind us, so we have the money."
Chen Zhuyi was playing tricks and patting his chest, acting like a wealthy man.
For a moment, Lin Ting felt that all the gloom during this period was swept away, her heart was filled with warmth, and tears were already welling up in her eyes.
"We all want to improve our reputation internationally, but how important are the opinions of outsiders?"
Chen Zhuyi held a handkerchief in one hand to wipe Lin Ting's tears, and held her hand with the other.
“Only when we become strong ourselves will others not dare to define our identities at will, and only then can we do what we want to do.”
Now, they have a bad reputation internationally, and people around them hate and even despise them.
But so what?
The awakened dragon will prove its strength little by little. As long as it has the power and confidence, others will be willing to listen to its voice!
"I'm obsessed." Lin Ting also wiped her face randomly, and there was a bit of determination in her smile, as if she had suddenly made up her mind.
"I will definitely use my own abilities to make our country develop further!"
After speeding all the way, they soon arrived at the border. Looking at the familiar islands not far away, Chen Zhu even felt a little dazed.
She hadn't been back for a long time, and her memories of this place had become a little different.
"Let's rest here for a while and go deeper in a few days. We also need to leave some of the goods here." Huo Qiyun explained the next itinerary and looked at Huo Jinzhi again.
He knew that this place must be somewhat special to them.
After all, it is the place where two people fall in love.
The boat was getting closer and closer, and Chen Zhuyi was the first to hear the barking of dogs. He always thought that the little Sui Sui was standing there majestically with his white fur, and there were several puppies around him.
It looks like the descendants of the years.
"Do you still recognize me?" Chen Zhu felt a lump in his throat and stretched out his hand. Sui Sui pounced on him and swung its tail on Huo Jinzhi, causing him to feel a little pain.
It can be seen how excited Suisui is now.
"Welcome home." Ye Xumei also had a heroic temperament. She walked over with a smile, not rushing over, but her eyes were full of eagerness.
Huo Jinzhi saw many familiar faces, and like Chen Zhuyi, he felt a lot more melancholy in his heart.
Some of the people in the team had already been transferred away.
Huo Jinzhi might be familiar with some of the ordinary soldiers, but it was difficult to find someone to hug intimately and get drunk with, like he did with Shen Zhuyi.
"I can reluctantly chat with you for a while. Let's go for a drink?" Huo Qiyun put his hand directly on his brother's shoulder and raised it quite casually with a smile on his face.
Finally reaching the border of their motherland, they could finally put down the burden that had been weighing on their hearts.
"After we send them all back, I will not leave until we are drunk." Huo Jinzhi slapped Huo Qiyun's hand aside, but rejected his kindness. The female comrades had already reunited affectionately.
Seeing this scene, Lin Ting hurriedly followed. Although she was older, she had a very young mentality.
Doctor Zheng looked older than before, but because of Ye Xumei's instigation and the arrangements of Liu Jinxing and others, everyone gathered together for dinner in a warm and friendly manner.
"We didn't tell you we would be here, so how come you're already prepared?" Chen Zhu asked in surprise when he saw the fresh meat in front of him.
If she didn't know that the people they sent on this trip were well-informed and cautious enough, she would have suspected that someone had leaked the information.
"They are all our own pets. We can just kill them when the time comes. The return of you and Jinzhi is the biggest event for our entire village!"
Zhao Yue was busy as a bee, and brought a glass of orange juice to Liu Jinxing. The table was filled with malted milk, but the orange color of the orange juice was particularly eye-catching.
"When people get older, they like to drink something sour and sweet. In the past, I only drank these sweet things and always felt uncomfortable." Liu Jinxing said with a smile. She did not feel uncomfortable about her husband's active care. Instead, there was some envy in the eyes of several women around her.
Their lives on the island are much better than those of ordinary people, but their husbands are not as considerate as Professor Zhao, and the relationship between them is not that good either.
Ye Xumei was standing by and watching the old couple get along so well. He subconsciously glanced at the crowd of men and quickly lowered his head.
Chen Zhuyi moved closer, put his arm around her slender waist, and winked, "Have you never thought about finding a partner?"
The aunts present suddenly stared at her as if some radar had been turned on.
"Yes, we all want to introduce a boyfriend to Miss Ye, but she just doesn't appreciate it."
An auntie next to her spoke with a smile.
Liu Jinxing was an experienced person and saw through their little tricks at a glance. He hugged Ye Xumei and said, "If our Ye girl really wants to find a partner, she will definitely find the best child. Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Don't blame me for spitting on you. If you sincerely introduce our Ye girl, she wouldn't be ungrateful. You guys are just a bunch of ugly girls. Even I find them distasteful, let alone such a delicate beauty."
When Chen Zhu heard what Liu Jinxing said, he realized that his topic was a little inappropriate.
She originally saw Ye Xumei's eyes drifting towards the group of male guests and wanted to make a little joke, but she never expected these aunts to be so eager to make a big deal out of it. Her expression changed and her voice became low.
"There are plenty of unmarried girls out there. Men can make money on their own. Even among gay men, how many of them earn more than her?"
