"Comrade Ning Ning, I heard that you got engaged today?"
Sheng Zexi walked over and saw two figures from a distance, both of them facing him sideways. One of the pretty figures was his young fiancée Gu Jianing whom he had met not long ago.
And the other one, who turned into ashes, was also recognized by Sheng Zexi.
Sheng Zexi's eyes darkened and her lips were pursed into a straight line. She really met Wen Zhuqing.
Why? Was it a coincidence, or?
Before I got close, I heard Wen Zhuqing ask this question.
Sheng Zexi stopped, and happened to stop in the blind spot of the two people's vision.
Suddenly, he was very curious about Gu Jianing's answer.
After all, he knew that Gu Jianing had liked Wen Zhuqing, and it was this love that made Sheng Zexi jealous to the point of almost going crazy, but Gu Jianing didn't know it.
At this moment, Sheng Zexi, who was waiting, felt that his breathing became lighter and his heart was lifted up. Even on the battlefield, he had never been so nervous and uneasy.
"Yes, I'm engaged." Soon, Gu Jianing's voice came, with a hint of joy.
"So, Wen Zhiqing is here to congratulate me?" Gu Jianing looked at Wen Zhuqing with a smile.
That question and smile made Wen Zhuqing stunned for a moment, and she didn't know how to respond.
It seemed that this answer was beyond his expectation.
But Wen Zhuqing quickly calmed down, lowered her eyes, and pretended to be sad, "I, I thought Comrade Ning Ning took care of me like that because she had a good impression of me. It seems that I misunderstood."
There was still a smile on Gu Jianing's lips, but the smile did not reach his eyes. That was it. Wen Zhuqing was like this in his previous life. He made her feel guilty with an aggrieved and depressed look, and then gave her everything she wanted with her own hands, while he was a pure and innocent little white flower.
Thinking of this, Gu Jianing said with a hint of malicious teasing, "No, Wen Zhiqing did not misunderstand."
To Wen Zhuqing's surprise, Gu Jianing said, "I did have a crush on Wen Zhiqing before, and I also thought about marrying you, but after meeting Brother Sheng, I changed my mind."
"Brother Sheng is a military officer with a promising future, and he is also from Beijing. You, Wen Zhiqing, are from Shanghai, but you are still an educated youth now, and you don't know when you can return to the city. Brother Sheng gets a salary every month, but you don't have a job, and you can't even get a full centimeter for working in the fields. Moreover, Brother Sheng is more majestic and tall, and he is also very handsome."
"So, I think Brother Sheng is better."
Originally, Gu Jianing thought about whether to reveal Wen Zhuqing's true identity, but when he thought about his future plans, he decided to give up.
So, just be a scumbag who falls in love with everyone she meets.
Although Wen Zhuqing was scheming, she was obviously shocked by her scumbag remarks.
He didn't expect that Gu Jianing was simple, but he was also someone who easily changed his mind.
Not far away, Sheng Zexi's hands went from clenched to loose, and then clenched again.
Originally, when she heard Gu Jianing say that she liked him more and that he was better than Wen Zhuqing, the corners of her mouth curled up wildly, her starry eyes became brighter, and her heart was filled with joy.
But after hearing Gu Jianing's remarks, I was also shocked.
He thought, if this little girl met someone better and more handsome than him in the future, wouldn't she be seduced away?
Sheng Zexi licked her back teeth with the tip of his tongue and felt like holding the little girl down and spanking her.
But I secretly took note of this incident and warned myself to work harder and become better in the future, and also to not be so rough with my face.
Reaching out and touching his face, Sheng Zexi didn't care much before, thinking that it was okay for men to be a little rough, but now he feels that he still needs to take good care of his face.
Sheng Zexi's mood can be said to be up and down because of Gu Jianing's words.
"Wen Zhiqing, if there is nothing else, I will leave first. By the way, please call me Comrade Gu next time we meet. I am afraid that my fiancé may have misunderstood your previous address."
After saying this, without paying any attention to Wen Zhuqing who seemed to want to say something, Gu Jianing concealed the hatred in his eyes and left.
Just when he was about to leave, he seemed to see the corner of a gray figure hiding in front of him. Thinking of that certain person, Gu Jianing's plan slowly took shape.
Wen Zhuqing wanted to catch up and say something, but she saw a tall and handsome man in military uniform walking towards Gu Jianing from a distance.
The man's gaze seemed to be fixed on him, with a hint of provocation, and Wen Zhuqing could not help but stop.
When Gu Jianing approached the man intimately, he was sure that the man should be the military officer fiancé whom Gu Jianing was getting engaged to today.
Is he worse than that officer?
Wen Zhuqing, who had been praised and admired since childhood and was always referred to as someone else's child, had a slightly distorted face.
However, considering that he is a military officer, and considering my current situation, I decided to avoid him for the time being.
Wen Zhuqing has always been able to bend and stretch.
It was Gu Jianing who was really unwilling to accept this.
"Brother Sheng, didn't you go back to the county town?" Gu Jianing's round almond-shaped eyes were full of surprise, and at the same time she felt a little guilty. She didn't know whether this man had seen her talking to Wen Zhuqing.
Sheng Zexi sneered in his heart when he saw the guilt in Gu Jianing's eyes, but he didn't care much.
He didn't intend to tell anyone what had just happened.
Suppressing the thoughts in his mind, Sheng Zexi's rebellious eyes rarely showed shyness, "Nothing, I just forgot to discuss with you when we are going to take wedding photos and get the marriage certificate."
So that's how it is.
Gu Jianing no longer thought about what happened with Wen Zhuqing, and was distracted by Sheng Zexi's words.
My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
"Then let's take wedding photos tomorrow. Once the photos are ready, we'll go get the marriage certificate."
"Okay." Sheng Zexi agreed immediately. If the baby was born a second later, Gu Jianing would refuse. "Then I'll pick you up tomorrow morning and take you to the photo studio in the county."
"Okay." At this time, Gu Jianing seemed to remember something and said, "Yes, the box your grandparents gave me..."
Gu Jianing whispered what was in the wooden box.
"…The things in here are too valuable. I can't accept them."
Sheng Zexi's eyes were a little dazed as he looked at Gu Jianing. The little girl's eyes were clear and the emotions in them did not seem fake.
I really feel that the things are too valuable to accept.
This little Pixiu always goes in but never leaves.
He knew that this little girl was somewhat greedy.
But I didn't expect that the little girl, although she loves money, is so clear-headed.
He doesn't think loving money is a bad thing.
A large part of those jewellery was his mother's dowry. Later, the man married another woman. When he found out that the woman dared to embezzle his mother's jewellery, he made a fuss and finally took all of his mother's dowry back to her parents' home, including the shop and the house.
Now, Sheng Zexi feels that there is nothing wrong in giving it to Gu Jianing.
Sheng Zexi thought so and said so.
"…My mother's things were either passed down to me or to you. We are one as husband and wife, and it is the same now. And since my grandparents have given them to you, there is no reason for them to take them back. Just keep them with peace of mind."
Finally, under Sheng Zexi's advice, Gu Jianing had no choice but to give in.
I plan to put the box into the system's space when I get back, so that I won't lose it and I can carry it with me.
