Chapter 21 A Late Confession
Two weeks after Lin Momo arrived at the military region, she received a package from Beijing.
One was supplies sent by the Cheng family, and four were clothes and supplies sent by Lin’s parents and brother and sister-in-law.
When the supply truck arrived at the military district, many military dependents were watching.
"Captain Cheng's wife's family is really well off. How could they bear to let her come with the army?"
"Such a large package, and still one, tsk tsk tsk, if my family conditions were so good, I would not come to join the army."
"But I heard that Captain Cheng's family is not bad. I heard that his father is a factory director."
The military families were talking about it, but without Miao Xiaohua, there were fewer people saying sour words.
Lin Momo hummed and hummed as she moved the packages one by one, muttering and cursing Cheng Jinghao as she moved.
"I knew the supply truck was coming today, but I didn't help move the things. If I had known, I wouldn't have come to be your military wife."
"I'm here." Suddenly a deep male voice came into her ears.
"......" As expected, you can't say bad things about people, "Didn't you go to training?"
Cheng Jinghao raised the corner of his mouth and quickly took the package from Lin Momo's body. "If I hadn't come, you would have scolded me. Don't you regret coming to join the army?"
"I, I was just complaining." Lin Momo blushed. "Is it okay for you to just come here like this?"
"It's okay. Old Zhao is watching over there. I'll help you move it and then I'll go over. You can't let our young wife move a package by herself. Then I can sleep on the kang at night?"
"Cheng Jinghao, you, who is your little wife? Speak properly." Lin Momo pretended to hit him, but was concerned that they were outside and there were many military dependents watching behind.
Cheng Jinghao looked at her straightly, until he entered the living room and put the package on the table, and said.
"Didn't you say you'd come to be my military wife? Then you're my little wife."
"You, you, you are shameless." Lin Momo stared at him with a red face.
"Well, I'm shameless." Cheng Jinghao looked at her blushing face and smiled.
"Wait at home, I'll go get the rest of the packages." After saying that, Cheng Jinghao went out.
Lin Momo stood there in a daze, unable to recover. What did he mean by what he just said?
Is that what you mean? It's impossible? How is that possible?
Cheng Jinghao was quick and quickly brought back the remaining four packages.
"I'm leaving." Cheng Jinghao was about to go back to the training ground when he found Lin Momo still in a daze.
"Are you asking someone to press your acupoints?" He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her eyes twice.
Lin Momo raised her head and looked at him seriously, "Cheng Jinghao, you are so... "
"I like you!" Cheng Jinghao said his true feelings without hesitation.
Lin Momo blinked her eyes vigorously, and her heart was beating violently.
"I realized I liked you when I was 17. I had planned to confess my feelings to you after our college entrance exams, but then I was urgently recruited by the army and joined the special forces directly."
"Then, why didn't you tell me later? Why did you leave me alone?" Lin Momo looked at him, not wanting to miss any of his expressions.
"Because I have seen too many comrades leave, I dare not, I am afraid that I can't give you a lifetime." Cheng Jinghao sighed.
Lin Momo's lips unconsciously tugged at the hem of her clothes. Was that the reason?
"You, you go train." Lin Momo started fiddling with the package and stopped looking at him.
"Momo."
"Cheng Jinghao, I want to be alone for a while."
"Okay, then I'll go to training first." Cheng Jinghao looked at her deeply and walked out.
Hearing the sound of the courtyard door closing, Lin Momo sat down on the chair and patted her red face with her hands.
It would be a lie to say that she was not touched by Cheng Jinghao's words.
It would be a lie to say that she had never made any move on Cheng Jinghao during her adolescence.
But they had been separated for so many years, and she didn't know how to respond to Cheng Jinghao's confession.
Lin Momo decided not to think about things she couldn't figure out, time would prove everything.
She began to unpack the package. Most of the things sent by the Cheng family were food, and there was also a cotton-padded jacket inside, which should have been bought for her by Cheng's mother at the shopping mall.
The Lin family sent her winter clothes, as well as a lot of dried meat and bacon, as well as quite a few snacks and daily necessities, and even several bottles of vanishing cream. These should have been prepared by the two sisters-in-law who helped Lin's mother prepare them.
With these packages as cover, Lin Momo took out a lot of cured products from the space.
I steamed some sausage rice for lunch. Cheng Jinghao loved eating this when he was a child.
Neither of them mentioned the topic from the morning again, as if what happened in the morning had never happened.
"I want to go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the afternoon. The material truck arrived today, so the supply and marketing cooperative should have new goods, right?" Lin Momo mentioned casually while eating.
"Well, there should be new goods. What do you want to buy? I will accompany you after dinner?" Cheng Jinghao asked.
"I want to make clothes, but I don't have thread. There is no thread for this sewing machine in the space. I also want to buy some wool."
"Then I'll accompany you after dinner."
"Okay." Lin Momo nodded. It would be better if someone could take her there on a bike.
After dinner, Cheng Jinghao washed the dishes and drove Lin Momo to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Along the way, 껩 didn't know whether the road was difficult to walk on or Cheng Jinghao did it on purpose.
Lin Momo had to grab the hem of his clothes to prevent herself from falling.
"Cheng Jinghao, can you ride more steadily?"
"I've tried my best. You think this is the asphalt road behind." In a direction that Lin Momo couldn't see, Cheng Jinghao's lips curled slightly.
"How about I carry the backpack and you sit on the front bar?"
"No." Lin Momo refused without even thinking.
"Oh." Cheng Jinghao didn't say anything else, but Lin Momo found that the road was becoming more and more difficult to walk on.
"Ah!" Until Lin Momo was overwhelmed by the urge and wrapped her arms around Cheng Jinghao's waist.
"Uh..." Cheng Jinghao suddenly felt something soft touching his back and the car stopped.
"You did it on purpose!" Lin Momo said with certainty.
"Well, no, the road is difficult to walk on." Cheng Jinghao's ears turned slightly red.
"Childish." Lin Momo stretched out her hand and pinched the flesh around Cheng Jinghao's waist.
"Hiss, Lin Momo, you murdered your husband."
"Why are you howling!" Lin Momo's pain worsened.
“…”You are my wife, legally.
"Captain Cheng, are you accompanying your wife to the supply and marketing cooperative?" At this time, several villagers came towards them.
Lin Momo heard the sound and quickly relaxed.
"Uncle village chief." Cheng Jinghao greeted the village chief with a smile.
"This time, I really didn't mean it. Look for yourself, there is such a big stone." After the village chief and others left, Cheng Jinghao pointed at the stone on the wall and said.
"Come on, you'll have to go to training soon."
Lin Momo glared at him, not wanting to argue with this sinister man.
