The two embraced silently in the office.
Xu Xinghe's legs were getting numb, so she moved slightly, her voice soft and sweet, making one's ears itch, "Jiang Linchuan, can you let go of me first? My legs are numb."
Is this what they mean by an iron tree blooming?
My ear used to turn red just from being touched.
But now they're hugging each other endlessly...
Jiang Linchuan slowly released his arms, supporting her waist to straighten her up, and looked down at her reddened eyes and swollen lips, "Can you still stand?"
"Hmm, I can stand up." Xu Xinghe stood up and stretched her stiff body, feeling more comfortable afterward.
As soon as they stopped, Jiang Linchuan grabbed her hand again, his fingers clenching tightly as if she would disappear if he let go, and pulled her straight out of the office.
Xu Xinghe followed him blankly, "What are you going to do?"
Jiang Linchuan didn't say anything, and just pulled her out of the office building.
Just as the affair between the two was causing quite a stir, many people saw Xu Xinghe come to see Jiang Linchuan and secretly followed her to watch the excitement.
Upon suddenly seeing the two holding hands, everyone was stunned and stopped in their tracks.
Jiang Linchuan felt the gazes around him, but instead of flinching, he gripped Xu Xinghe's hand even tighter and spoke in a deep, clear voice.
“Those letters were written by Xinghe in the heat of the moment when we had a fight. From beginning to end, she did not wrong me, nor did she fall in love with anyone else. There were just some misunderstandings between us, but they have now been cleared up.”
He paused, glancing around at everyone, "My engagement with Xinghe has not been cancelled. Once I've finished dealing with what I have to do, I'll start preparing for the wedding. I hope everyone will come and attend our wedding."
Xu Xinghe felt a sweet warmth in her heart as she listened to Jiang Linchuan's words.
He used to be afraid and avoid things, afraid to do anything that might involve him. His words and actions were filled with distrust and probing.
But now he no longer hides, no longer fears, and stands openly beside her, protecting her behind him, declaring their relationship in the most direct way.
How could she not love a man like that?
Jiang Linchuan's tall figure blocked her way, shutting out all the different gazes.
The sunlight outlined his sharply defined profile, and the warmth of his body emanated from my palm; everything felt so reassuring.
Xu Xinghe couldn't help but curl her fingers and grip him tightly.
Blessings echoed throughout the venue.
"Oh, it's good that it was a misunderstanding. Congratulations, Commander Jiang, and congratulations, Miss Xu."
"I've always thought you two were a good match. Once the misunderstanding is cleared up, just don't let it affect your relationship."
"Now we're just waiting to drink your wedding wine!"
...
Xu Xinghe smiled sweetly at everyone, her gaze still fixed on Jiang Linchuan.
It turns out that being protected by someone feels so reassuring.
The suffering from my past life seems insignificant at this moment.
Jiang Linchuan led Xu Xinghe and continued walking forward.
When he meets someone, he will offer an explanation.
He wanted everyone in the military to know that he wanted to be with Xu Xinghe.
As for the past hurts and misunderstandings, let's pretend they never existed.
When he said it was a misunderstanding, he wasn't just talking to others, but also to himself.
Let's just treat it as a misunderstanding; let the bad be over, and perhaps the good will come.
Just like winter in Northeast China, no matter how cold it gets, it will eventually pass, and spring, when everything comes back to life, will arrive.
Jiang Linchuan led Xu Xinghe back to the courtyard.
As soon as he entered the door, he started a fire, added firewood, and also boiled a kettle of water to make a cup of malted milk powder.
Xu Xinghe didn't have to do anything; she just had to sit on the small stool and wait.
Jiang Linchuan handed her the cup, saying, "It's a little hot, drink it slowly."
"Hmm." Xu Xinghe's eyes were bright and she watched his every move. "By the way, what happened to the things you bought when we went to town together?"
Jiang Linchuan froze.
That day... was the day he was about to propose to Xu Xinghe, but Li Xingzhou suddenly arrived.
"I'll have someone bring it over in a bit."
Xu Xinghe nodded, "Oh right, and the furniture too. Although you had it moved in, it wasn't placed where I wanted it."
That day, Li Xingzhou also caused trouble, resulting in the furniture they bought together not being properly arranged.
"I'll get right away." Jiang Linchuan rolled up his sleeves, revealing his handsome muscle lines, smooth yet muscular, making one want to touch them.
He took out his tools and began inspecting the furniture, fixing what could be repaired and replacing what couldn't.
Since he has decided to be with Xu Xinghe, he should give her the best.
After drinking the malted milk powder, Jiang Linchuan's examination was almost complete.
He stood up and pulled Xu Xinghe up again, "Come on, let's go to the cafeteria for lunch."
He wanted everyone to see his stance.
He will be with Xu Xinghe, and those letters are nothing to him.
If even he, the person involved, doesn't care, then no one else will care either.
Xu Xinghe obediently followed him, "Those letters..."
"I will burn it all today." Jiang Linchuan lowered his eyes. "I will never give anyone the chance to hurt you again."
Xu Xinghe chuckled and scratched his palm with her finger. "What I want to say is, how could those letters suddenly appear? Someone must know your habit of hiding things, so from now on, you'd better change it."
"Okay, I understand."
When they reached the cafeteria entrance, Jiang Linchuan let go of her hand.
Supporting Xu Xinghe once is enough.
Holding hands too often can easily attract strange looks from others.
As soon as I entered the cafeteria, many people came up to greet me.
Jiang Linchuan is usually very cold and unapproachable, but today he not only replied to everyone, but even smiled.
"Hey, did you see that? Commander Jiang smiled!"
"I saw it, but are you sure it was a smile? It looks more like it's about to kill me!"
"He must be laughing. The power of love is truly great; even the King of Hell is laughing!"
Xu Xinghe listened to the soldiers' discussion and smiled, her eyes crinkling.
The two sat facing each other in the cafeteria for the first time.
Xu Xinghe placed a piece of food she didn't like on Jiang Linchuan's plate, asking, "Were you really laughing just now?"
Jiang Linchuan paused, his face expressionless. "No."
"Fine, I'll pretend you didn't have it."
Xu Xinghe picked up another piece of tofu from his plate and put it in her mouth. "Mmm, other people's food is definitely tastier."
Jiang Linchuan didn't say anything, but put all the tofu into her bowl.
"Xinghe." An annoying voice came from behind.
Xu Xinghe rolled her eyes, pretending not to hear.
As a result, the owner of the voice sat directly opposite her, next to Jiang Linchuan.
Li Xingzhou had already heard about what had just happened and was in a bad mood, but he was still smiling, his clean shirt rolled up at his forearm to avoid getting oil stains. "I heard about those letters."
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Linchuan, pushed up his glasses, and said, "Commander Jiang, even if you are dissatisfied with Xinghe, you shouldn't have exposed those letters. It's not good for Xinghe, don't you think?"
Xu Xinghe slammed down her chopsticks. "What's it to you?"
She picked up a steamed bun from the plate, tore off a piece, and stuffed it directly into Li Xingzhou's mouth.
It was so tightly packed that he couldn't speak, and he couldn't even vomit.
"I ate!" Xu Xinghe stared intently at him. "Didn't you say I was your sister? What, your sister is feeding you, and you won't eat?"
