"You might as well let me go to the battlefield and carry bullets instead of letting me go on a blind date." Lu Xiuyuan answered without hesitation.
"Puh, puh, puh, can you please watch your mouth, little brat?" Meng Hongping spat several times in a row.
Ever since Lu Xiuyuan almost got into trouble this time, she has become more cautious about these things.
"Mom, don't worry about me anymore. Just focus on my dad so that he won't dislike me again." Lu Xiuyuan went into the house and prepared to take a shower and change clothes.
"Your dad will naturally put in some thought, but since you are my son, I cannot favor one over the other." Meng Hongping followed Lu Xiuyuan closely, "Tell mom honestly, why have you always been so resistant to blind dates and unwilling to find a girlfriend? Is that so..."
Meng Hongping looked a little embarrassed when she said this.
Lu Xiuyuan didn't quite hear it clearly, so he turned his head and asked, "What?"
"I say, is it because of your health that you don't find a girlfriend?!" Meng Hongping looked at him pretending to be stupid and yelled at him.
All of a sudden, even the aunt who was preparing food in the kitchen dropped the beans in her hand.
"Mom, what are you thinking about every day?" Lu Xiuyuan was really helpless.
"You can't blame me for not thinking about it. You're a guy in his 20s. If you're in good health, how can you not miss your girlfriend? Your father back then..." Meng Hongping suddenly paused, and the expression on her face looked a little unnatural.
"What happened to my father back then?" Lu Xiuyuan asked.
"Why do you care about these things? You must go on a blind date for me tomorrow, otherwise I will never let you join the army!" Meng Hongping acted like a mother.
Lu Xiuyuan put the towel on his shoulders and said seriously, "Mom, I really have no plans to get married at the moment. If I go to meet a girl with a perfunctory attitude, I will be irresponsible to her."
"You haven't seen the girl before. Once you see her, she might want to start a family." Meng Hongping said.
"I..." Lu Xiuyuan opened his mouth and wanted to explain something. He had rejected so many blind dates arranged by his mother. If he couldn't find a reason to convince her this time, he might really be forced to go on a blind date by her tomorrow.
Thinking of this, the expression on Lu Xiuyuan's face softened slightly.
"I already have someone I like."
"What did you say?" Meng Hongping widened her eyes in disbelief.
"You should know that my mission this time was extremely dangerous. When I was on the verge of death, a girl saved me. Later, she also healed my eyes." Lu Xiuyuan said softly.
"What? A little girl? What does she look like? Where does her father come from? How old is she? Who else is in her family? When can we come to propose marriage?" Meng Hongping grabbed Lu Xiuyuan's arm, her tone extremely excited.
Lu Xiuyuan was really so mad at his mother that he almost laughed.
"Mom, I just said that I have a crush on the girl, why did you bring up the marriage proposal?"
"So what you mean is that you have a one-sided love for that girl?" Meng Hongping reacted.
Unrequited love?
Lu Xiuyuan thought about it for a moment, and a vague figure emerged in his mind.
Although he is so thin, his eyes are more determined than those of a soldier like him.
It may not be considered unrequited love, but I can only say that I do have some feelings for her.
After all, he is a grown-up, and his heart has only ever been beating because of her.
"I say, you are a worldly-wise man. You have been tempered in the army for so many years, but how can you be so timid when facing the big things in life? If you like a girl, you should boldly confess to her. Why are you still doing this unrequited love?" Meng Hongping's face was full of anger.
Lu Xiuyuan's thoughts were drawn back.
"But my situation is critical and I really don't have any extra time to spend with you." He was telling the truth.
