Chapter 4: Childhood sweethearts
A week later, Zhang Hui, the second sister-in-law, brought news that her neighbor Cheng Jinghao from her mother's side had returned from the army and asked Lin Momo to meet him.
The meeting place was arranged at a park in the flour mill's residential area. At first, Lin's mother disagreed. After all, they were strangers and it was inappropriate for them to meet alone outside.
However, considering that we are just meeting each other, it is not appropriate to go to each other's homes.
"Mom, he is a soldier after all. What can he do to me in broad daylight?"
Of course, Lin Momo hoped that the two of them could meet alone. How could she confirm whether he was the Cheng Jinghao if they didn't meet alone?
"Okay, then you should be careful and keep your distance." Lin's mother instructed carefully. Originally, she did not agree with Lin Momo going to meet him by herself, but this was her daughter's own business after all, and it was her daughter who asked to go to see him.
This year, if a man and a woman get a little closer, they will be gossiped about. Even if they are a couple, holding hands on the street will be said to be immoral.
The next day, Lin Momo arrived at the park. As soon as she saw the agreed slogan, she saw a tall and straight figure standing in front of the slogan, wearing a green military uniform, with his back to her.
She was just about to call out "Cheng Jinghao" unconsciously when the other person turned around and she was stunned for a moment.
She was very familiar with that face. Cheng Jinghao had delicate and three-dimensional facial features, deep eyes, and was 188 cm tall. She once joked that if Cheng Jinghao didn't join the army, he could become a model.
"Why are you standing there like an idiot? Are you stupid because of me?" A slightly magnetic voice sounded.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Lin Momo confirmed that he was Cheng Jinghao, the Cheng Jinghao who died in the fire for her.
Lin Momo covered her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes, and she didn't dare to move forward for a long time.
Cheng Jinghao curled the corners of his lips and walked towards Lin Momo, "If you cry here, people will think I'm a hooligan."
Hearing his words, Lin Momo quickly stopped crying.
"This is not the place to talk." Cheng Jinghao looked at her. His original body had been a soldier for many years and did not have much impression of Beijing.
It was class time now, and although there weren't many people in the park, their conversation could have been overheard by someone, and they might be dragged to the police station, so it was better to be cautious.
"Come with me." As childhood sweethearts for many years, Lin Momo naturally knew what he meant.
Lin Momo led him to an alley, and Cheng Jinghao followed her, always keeping a distance of half a meter.
Before entering the alley, Cheng Jinghao looked around and made sure that there was no one there before following Lin Momo in.
As soon as he entered the alley, Cheng Jinghao was pulled by Lin Momo, and in a flash, he and Lin Momo appeared in the mall.
"What is this? Your space?" Cheng Jinghao took a look and realized that this was the mall of Lin Momo's class in her previous life.
"Oh, you also know about space?" Lin Momo looked at him. As far as she knew, Cheng Jinghao never read novels.
"Yeah." Cheng Jinghao looked at her with a gleam in his eyes. He finally saw her.
"Are you stupid? Why are you following me to die?" Lin Momo put one hand on her waist and the other pointing at him.
"Everything is fine now." Cheng Jinghao curled his lips. They are not dead and have all come here. Everything is fine.
"..." Lin Momo choked and had no words to refute him. Yes, they are all still alive, that's great.
"When did you come?" they both asked at the same time.
"July 23rd." They both said the same time.
"I have already written the marriage report and will go to get the certificate tomorrow. I only have a week's vacation." Cheng Jinghao said calmly.
"What certificate? What marriage? When did you file the marriage report?" Lin Momo took a step back, moved away from Cheng Jinghao, and looked at him warily.
"When I received your photo, I registered my marriage. Wasn't it you who took the initiative to see it?" Cheng Jinghao looked at Lin Momo with interest.
"I did that to confirm if it was you. You are 26 years old now and I am only 18. You want an old cow to eat young grass? No way." Lin Momo hugged her clothes tightly.
"What's the matter? Do you still want to be like before and not get married at the age of 28? Nowadays, many people get married at the age of 18. If you don't marry me, you can just find a pockmarked or crippled guy to marry?" Cheng Jinghao looked at her with his arms folded across his chest.
"If I don't get married, I can go back to my hometown. I'm so rich, how can I starve to death if I go back to my hometown?" Lin Momo raised her head proudly.
"Yes, you don't work every day, and you get everything you need from the mall. If someone finds out that you have such a space, are you sure you won't be taken to a porn site?" Cheng Jinghao glanced at her.
"......" Lin Momo was immediately deflated, as if what Cheng Jinghao said was right.
"Do you think I really think you are such a weakling? If it weren't for the fact that we grew up together, I would..." Cheng Jinghao pointed at Lin Momo and made a gesture.
"What do you mean? Although my body is only 18 years old, I can get whatever I want, okay?" Lin Momo puffed out her chest and moved closer to Cheng Jinghao.
"Ahem." Cheng Jinghao's face turned red and he quickly turned away.
"......" Lin Momo's face turned red. In her previous life, they had seldom contacted each other since Cheng Jinghao joined the army. When they met in this world, it was as if they had suddenly returned to their childhood and forgot that they had all grown up.
"It's a fake marriage. My parents are urging me to do it. It's just right that I can solve your problem. After the marriage, you can join the army immediately." Cheng Jinghao said seriously.
"Let me think about it."
"I'll give you a benefit." Seeing that she was still hesitating, Cheng Jinghao unbuttoned two buttons of his military uniform.
"Cheng Jinghao, what are you doing? Are you acting like a hooligan?" Lin Momo looked at him nervously.
"What are you thinking about?" Cheng Jinghao showed his collarbone, with a red mark of water droplets on his face.
"What is this?" Lin Momo asked curiously.
"Spiritual spring."
"Lingquan? The Lingquan that brings the dead back to life?" Lin Momo asked in surprise.
"You've read too many novels." Cheng Jinghao tapped her forehead gently and said. "It can improve physical fitness, strengthen the physique, and speed up wound recovery."
"How did you get this? Why don't I have it?" Lin Momo said enviously while staring at the red mark.
Cheng Jinghao felt hot all over when she looked at him, and buttoned up his shirt. "Do you still remember the red water-drop stone you gave me when I was in the army? This is it."
"What?" Lin Momo pointed at the covered mark in shock, "I bought it on the street for ten yuan."
"Do you want to have a fake marriage with me? Lingquan is up to you." Cheng Jinghao put forward the conditions. "You take care of my food and drink, and I'll give you my allowance, which is 131.3 yuan a month. If I go on a mission, I'll get a bonus, at least 50 yuan, and sometimes even hundreds of yuan."
"My current savings is exactly 10,000 yuan. How about I give it all to you?" Cheng Jinghao looked at Lin Momo's sparkling eyes and made a move.
He knew Lin Momo too well and knew that at this moment, she was already making plans in her mind.
"Fake marriage?" Lin Momo looked at him with bright eyes.
Ten thousand yuan households, this year's ten thousand yuan households are not something you can just do.
Although she has endless supplies in the mall, she has no fighting power and dares not go to the black market rashly. What if she is caught and raped?
"Fake marriage." Cheng Jinghao nodded.
"Hi." Lin Momo raised her hand to high-five Cheng Jinghao.
Cheng Jinghao raised his hand. Lin Momo was immersed in the joy of becoming a millionaire and was unaware of the gleam in Cheng Jinghao's eyes.
