Chapter 18 I Belong to the Country (Revised) (2/2)



He repeated, "I'll wipe myself."

Lin Qingqing smiled and said softly, "Why don't you wipe the wound yourself?"

This statement cannot be refuted.

Song Yiyuan: "..."

Lin Qingqing wrung out the towel from the basin, folded it into a square in her hands, walked behind Song Yiyuan and began to wipe him carefully.

After not taking a shower for several days in the hot summer, and being injured in the mountains, Song Yiyuan's originally fair skin looked dirty because of the mud and dirt on his body that he had not washed off in time.

The towel turned black just after wiping the back. Lin Qingqing rubbed the towel clean and wiped it again.

After going back and forth a few times, the water in the porcelain basin had turned black.

Song Yiyuan looked at the basin of black water and his face turned red with embarrassment.

Lin Qingqing went out again to change a basin of water and wiped Song Yiyuan again.

Looking at his fair skin, Lin Qingqing even doubted whether this man was really a soldier, if it weren't for his crew cut and straight back which were the characteristics of a soldier.

This look, this skin...

Song Yiyuan looked at Lin Qingqing who had finished her work. He lowered his eyes and said, "Lin Qizhi, I will keep my word and marry you."

"But I can only give you the title of husband and a life with enough food and clothing. I am a soldier and I belong to the country."

Song Yiyuan looked up at her. He knew that what he said was too direct and cold-blooded, but he really had no intention of getting married.

Ever since he joined the Eagle Claw Group, he has never thought about starting a family with any woman. If he gets married, he will be harming others.

The missions they take are the most dangerous, and every time they go out they don’t know whether they can come back.

If she minds and doesn't want to get married, he is willing to compensate her.

Lin Qingqing stood aside and listened to these words without any reaction. His meaning was very obvious. Because his reputation was damaged, he would marry her and then they would be husband and wife in name only.

Lin Qingqing blinked. "Are you done? I agree with you. It's the duty of a soldier to protect the country."

She didn't like the life of being separated from each other. In her previous life, she didn't fall in love because she was afraid of trouble and wasting her energy on research.

She just wanted the status of a military dependent.

Song Yiyuan looked up and down at Lin Qingqing with inquiry and surprise in his eagle eyes. He thought that Lin Qingqing would at least cry and make a fuss, but would not talk to him so quietly.

Since she agreed, Song Yiyuan told her about the subsequent arrangements.

"I'm from Kyoto and currently serving in the army in H Province. I'll contact the army after I recover from my injury in a few days. I have a yard there. After marriage, whether you follow the army or stay in the Lin family, it's up to you."

"Kyoto is too far from here, taking half a month to drive, so you won't be able to meet my family. I've saved some money in the army, so you can ask for anything you want for marriage."

After hearing this, Lin Qingqing's eyes lit up. This kind of life where she doesn't have to take care of her parents-in-law, her husband is handsome and rich, and they can live their own lives after marriage, is too perfect.

In this era when women have to get married, this configuration is really great.

She wished she could drag him along to get the marriage certificate right now.

"After marriage, I will follow the army, so I need to discuss the marriage requirements with my family."

Song Yiyuan nodded. The smoothness of this matter exceeded his expectations. After solving this major problem, he felt relieved and his tone became a little more relaxed: "Your medicine is really effective. The deep wound on my back feels much better in just one day."

He had injured his muscles, which was why he couldn't get out of bed. Now that he had applied Lin Qingqing's medicine, he was amazed that the wound could heal so quickly.

Lin Qingqing smiled: "This is just something I figured out. The herbs were also picked in the mountains. You should rest more and your injury will heal faster."

After saying that, Lin Qingqing walked out holding the basin. Song Yi raised his eyebrows. This shady back figure made him feel as if the person who was obsessed with him and pestered him a few days ago was just his own illusion.
