"Were there any female comrades injured or killed?" Gu Weizhou thought of Ruan Yunxi.
He dared not think about it.
What would he do for the rest of his life if something happened to her?
He shouldn't have waited for her in Dalian; he should have gone to Shanghai to pick her up.
Gu Weizhou clenched his fist secretly, filled with regret, his eyes brimming with tension and unease.
Seeing Gu Weizhou's drastically changed expression, the person in charge knew he had come to pick up his wife who was accompanying him in the army, and immediately reassured him: "Commander Gu, don't worry, your wife is fine. It's just that the casualties were all comrades from the Ministry of State Security, they..."
Gu Weizhou knew he shouldn't be happy; compared to Ruan Yunxi's safety, he didn't think he had anything to be ashamed of.
In his heart, Ruan Yunxi's safety was more important than his own life.
Gu Weizhou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his face showed regret for the deceased: "Thank you for informing me. As for those comrades in the Ministry of State Security, they were great."
When the ship docked, before anyone else had disembarked, Gu Weizhou had already used his position to board the passenger ship first and go to look for Ruan Yunxi.
The deck was already crowded with people eager to disembark. They huddled together, each afraid of being left behind on the passenger ship. After a two-day, one-night voyage, they couldn't wait to get ashore.
Ruan Yunxi was not in a hurry.
She accompanied the Ministry of State Security personnel who was still in a coma. Their luggage was carried by the ship's staff. Besides her, there was also a doctor who was treating the unconscious wounded. They were taking extra care of the injured and were directed to go down through another passage.
Avoid crowding with other passengers.
As Ruan Yunxi descended the steps, a powerful hand appeared before her, with slender fingers, distinct knuckles, and calluses on the base of the thumb, clearly the result of years of training.
Following the large hand upwards, a silver Shanghai brand watch was encircled on the slender, wheat-skinned wrist. The dial was slightly worn, and the crystal was slightly scratched. It looked old, but the owner did not seem to mind wearing it. It was worn steadily on the wrist, as if the owner was reluctant to take it off.
Following the worn watch upwards, the slightly rolled-up cuffs revealed his strong arms. His arms were long and his shoulders broad. The ordinary navy blue shirt looked crisp and upright on him, exuding a capable and refreshing aura.
Ruan Yunxi's gaze fell on the face of the person with the large hand. He had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, with regular features. His deep gaze contained a hint of tenderness and joy. His dark eyes were fixed on her face, which had a straight nose and thin lips that were slightly upturned, forming a beautiful curve.
It looks familiar, yet I can't quite recognize it.
Ruan Yunxi hesitated, looking at the tall, imposing man who was showing her kindness. Standing on the steps, she relied on their height to meet his gaze. A familiar yet unfamiliar name welled up in her mind: "You are...?"
A man's cool voice rang out, tinged with warmth: "Gu Weizhou!"
Her beautiful eyes brightened slightly, and Ruan Yunxi, who had guessed correctly, curled her lips into a smile. An awkward yet polite smile bloomed on her fair and jade-like face: "Could you please come and pick me up?"
“Picking up my own wife is no trouble at all,” Gu Weizhou eagerly declared his identity.
Ruan Yunxi's lips twitched. She realized that she had indeed come to marry him, and it wasn't wrong for people to call her their wife.
"The steps are a bit steep, so I'll hold your hand to keep you from falling," Gu Weizhou said considerately.
Ruan Yunxi met him for the first time after he had been in the army for ten years. She was unfamiliar and distant, and instead of placing her hand on his big hand, she grabbed his arm through his clothes, which made her seem less cold and distant.
Even so, she was still slightly shocked by Gu Weizhou's strong arms and burning body temperature.
No wonder they say the soldiers are made of steel, unafraid of bullets and charging forward bravely.
Ruan Yunxi found it.
His arms are indeed quite strong.
