After leaving the Jiang family home, the three headed straight for the train station.
Jiang Zheng and Lu Jingnian carried all the things they brought, while Jiang Yue went empty-handed and bought a ticket at the station.
When I got on the bus, there were only three seats left: one in the front and two next to each other in the back.
"You guys go to the back, I'll sit in the front," Jiang Zheng said directly.
Jiang Yue and Lu Jingnian went to the back and sat down. Lu Jingnian asked Jiang Yue in a low voice, "What did Jiang Xue say to you when he left?"
“He didn’t say anything,” Jiang Yue replied.
She couldn't very well say that Jiang Xue wanted to replace her brother-in-law, could she?
Upon hearing this, Lu Jingnian looked at her without saying anything.
Jiang Yue felt a little guilty under Lu Jingnian's gaze. "I really didn't say anything, just that I should go to night school as soon as possible."
"I can read lips."
Lu Jingnian suddenly said.
Jiang Yue: "..."
"I studied lip reading for half a year to prepare for a mission," Lu Jingnian said earnestly, looking at Jiang Yue.
He saw clearly what Jiang Xue and Jiang Yue said.
"Jiang Xue is talking nonsense. I didn't want to tell you because I was afraid you would overthink it. I rejected all those male teachers Jiang Xue mentioned without even thinking about it. Right now, I just want to live a good life with you and I want to like you."
Jiang Yue wrapped her arms around Lu Jingnian's arm, rested her head on his shoulder, and closed her eyes.
"Lu Jingnian, I'm a little carsick, I'll take a nap first."
When did Lu Jingnian start settling accounts with her?
This man is being naughty.
Looking at her shameless attitude, Lu Jingnian felt both helpless and cute, and couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth. He never thought that one day he would have such complicated feelings over such a trivial matter.
He had never felt helpless during even the most dangerous missions in the past.
The car set off quickly, and the passengers were very quiet along the way. Jiang Yue actually fell asleep while leaning against Lu Jingnian.
Until Lu Jingnian called her.
"Yueyue... Yueyue, wake up!"
"The train has arrived at the station."
Jiang Yue opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was Lu Jingnian's handsome face. She was still half asleep and couldn't tell where she was. Her mouth reacted faster than her brain, and she hugged Lu Jingnian and kissed him.
"Huh..."
A middle-aged woman's disdainful voice came from nearby, "Young people these days, they really have no manners at all, kissing in public."
Jiang Yue was jolted awake by those words and quickly let go of Lu Jingnian.
She forgot that this was the 1980s, and although it would soon be 1990, people's thinking was still very conservative.
"Lu Jingnian, I..."
Jiang Yue looked at Lu Jingnian's bright red ears and wanted to explain.
Lu Jingnian lowered his head and quickly kissed her on the cheek again, "Don't be afraid, she's talking about me."
The warm sensation on her cheek made Jiang Yue stiffen, and she stared at Lu Jingnian in shock.
She really couldn't believe that someone like Lu Jingnian would dare to kiss her in such an environment.
"Cough cough!"
Jiang Zheng's clear cough rang out at the car door, "Get out of the car quickly."
Jiang Yue and Lu Jingnian then stood up from the back door and walked towards the car door.
At this point, only the two of them were left in the car.
Jiang Zheng stood under the car door and watched them get off. He glanced at Lu Jingnian speechlessly, and while Lu Jingnian went to get something, he walked over and warned him, "I know you want to be good to my sister."
But we're out here, you're a soldier, can't you be a little more mindful of your appearance?
This person seems like a completely different person after getting married.
"I know."
Lu Jingnian knew what he was doing. After picking up his things, he walked over to Jiang Yue and said to her, "Would you like to eat something before you go?"
It's already past 5 pm, time for dinner.
"Are you hungry? If not, let's go home and cook for ourselves."
When we left, Mom took a lot of cooked dishes; we can just heat them up and eat them when we get home.
Jiang Yue said.
Shen Limin was worried that they would be tired when they came back and wouldn't want to cook, and there was no food left in the canteen. She was afraid that they would go hungry, so she asked the aunt to cook a lot of delicious food for them.
"Then let's go home?" Lu Jingnian listened to Jiang Yue, but also wanted to ask Jiang Zheng.
Jiang Zheng had no objection. What was a little hunger? In the past, when they were on missions, there were times when they didn't eat or drink for two days.
Since none of the three wanted to eat out, they returned to their unit first.
After walking for more than half an hour, the three of them finally returned to their unit.
As soon as Jiang Yue arrived at the gate of the military base, she saw Political Commissar Yu, who was talking to someone. Upon seeing Lu Jingnian and Jiang Zheng, Political Commissar Yu immediately said goodbye to the person and ran over.
"I knew you'd be back around this time, so I've been waiting here for half an hour."
Jiang Zheng kicked him while carrying his things, "You're waiting for us, are you just trying to freeload a meal?"
Despite being kicked, Political Commissar Yu wasn't angry. He smiled and took the things from the man's hand. "I haven't seen you for over a month. I missed you. Don't make me sound so materialistic. Whether I get a free meal or not isn't important."
The important thing is that I haven't eaten with you in so long, and I really miss the way you eat.
"vomit!"
Jiang Zheng almost vomited.
"Everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, ask Lao Lu." Political Commissar Yu looked at Lu Jingnian with reason and confidence. "Lao Lu, don't you think so?"
Lu Jingnian ignored the two of them and said to Jiang Yue, "Let's go home first, we don't need to pay attention to them."
Jiang Zheng and Political Commissar Yu love to joke around; when they're together, they never stop talking.
Jiang Yue was quite envious of their friendship; only true friends could joke around like that without any reservations.
As Jiang Yue walked home with Lu Jingnian, she heard Jiang Zheng, who was behind her with his arm around Political Commissar Yu's neck, say, "I can let you come and freeload a meal, but I have a condition."
"You need to let me stay at your place for a couple of days. My application for family housing won't be approved until next month, so I'll be staying there in the meantime."
Now that his younger sister is here, Jiang Zheng doesn't want to stay in the dormitory anymore.
There are empty rooms in the family dormitory, but they haven't been cleaned up yet, so he can't stay there for the time being.
Political Commissar Yu said nonchalantly, "You can stay anywhere, just don't climb into my bed at night."
Jiang Zheng scoffed, "You wish."
