Chapter 69 Propose to Join the Army
It was almost evening when we left Huang's house.
The Huang family saw them off for a long way before reluctantly turning back.
Huang Xinran also couldn't bear to leave his parents, and made an agreement with them that he would come over to help after his eldest sister-in-law gave birth to a baby in a few days.
Lu Yunchen was silent all the way. Huang Xinran was also lost in his own thoughts.
The way back was particularly quiet.
When they got home, the two kids, who had played all day, had already fallen asleep leaning against their backs.
After settling the child down, Lu Yunchen was dazzled by Huang Xinran's beautiful and charming profile. He couldn't help but think of what his brother-in-law said before, and fell silent for a moment.
"Ran Ran has always been strong and could not tolerate failure. But her marriage became a big joke back then. It became the topic of conversation for countless people. This was a great shame and humiliation for her. It was not so much that she was obsessed with the surname Xiao, but rather that she could not accept her own failure."
"Although the beginning of your relationship with Ranran was accidental and fortuitous, I know that Ranran and Xiao have played together since childhood. Whenever Xiao wanted to hold Ranran's hand, she would beat him up. On the contrary, with you..."
"Isn't it possible that she fell in love with you at first sight?"
"Give her some time, wait for her to think it through and understand her own feelings. Even if you don't want to give her face, give her another chance for the sake of Yaya and Maomao. How about it?"
…
Huang Xinran didn't want to care at first, but the gaze of the man next to her was too direct, making her unable to ignore it even if she wanted to.
As a last resort, she turned to him and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Oh, yes."
Lu Yunchen came back to his senses, touched his nose, and suddenly spoke as if possessed by a ghost: "Do you want to take your children with you to join the army?"
“Huh?!”
Huang Xinran was shocked.
Lu Yunchen's ears were burning, and he realized that he had said such a thing unintentionally. He could only try to make up for it: "Ahem, that... Yaya and Maomao are still young, so we adults won't say anything. It's easy to deal with even if they get divorced. But what about them? The strange eyes of the country people can ruin their lives."
Huang Xinran's eyes lit up.
What he meant by this was...
Lu Yunchen then added: "My idea is that we should separate for the time being. You take them with me to join the army first. After they adapt to the life over there, we will..."
The light in Huang Xinran's eyes dimmed.
She really thought too much...
"How about it? What do you think?"
"Oh, sure."
Huang Xinran smiled hurriedly, then lowered her head to hide her disappointment, "Let's do this. Let him go with the army. If he goes to the army, it will also save the child from getting hurt in the future."
If the two children had followed her to the army, could they have avoided the tragedy of their previous life?
Maomao will not be lost, and Yaya can live a safe and happy life?
Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and raised her head again, looking at him seriously: "Lu Yunchen, you are right, it is better for Yaya and Maomao to follow me to join the army. I am willing to join the army."
"good!"
Even if Huang Xinran agreed to join the army, it was not something that could be done just like that.
We have to wait for Lu Yunchen to return to the army to apply, and we can only set off after getting approval.
It's late at night.
It was the first time for a couple who had been married for many years to lie so peacefully in the same bed. Both of them tossed and turned and could not fall asleep.
Both parties were wondering why the other party was so abnormal today?
As a result, both of them slept late and were unable to get up until noon.
Lu Yunqian was angry before, and when she saw that the woman hadn't gotten up after dinner, she immediately wanted to call for help, but was stopped by Zhang Wenbi.
"You are already a grown-up girl, yet you are still so reckless. No wonder your father wants you to settle down sooner. If you keep putting it off, you will be laughed at by others when you marry into your husband's family!"
In Zhang Wenbi's opinion, her son was about to return to the army, and the young couple took the opportunity to have a good time together. How normal is it to get up late? But her daughter didn't even think of this. She didn't know how many conflicts she would have when she got married and went to her husband's house.
"Mom, even you help that woman..."
Lu Yunqian yelled, and suddenly realized something was wrong: "What do you mean by settled? Mom, what do you mean by that? Didn't we agree before that I would study and continue to take the college entrance examination, and I would not get married!"
"You can't say no!"
Zhang Wenbi was troubled by her annoyance. Lu Tianlei was right. This daughter was really spoiled by her. He simply gave an order: "If you have a suitable candidate, tell me as soon as possible. If not, I will find a matchmaker to help you in the next few days. You should also prepare and meet people properly. It will save you from running around all day."
"I don't want to get married! I won't marry even if you kill me!"
Lu Yunqian was so angry that she turned around and ran away without even eating.
"Run, run! If you have the guts, run away and don't come back!"
Zhang Wenbi was also angry.
This damn girl is like this every time. She will make a scene if I say a few words to her, and she will run outside at any time. She will make public the smallest things so that everyone knows about them. It really makes her so angry!
Lu Yunqian felt aggrieved.
After running out of the yard, he was still very angry. He picked up a small stone and threw it towards the room where Huang Xinran lived.
There was a loud bang, and then there was a loud noise, which obviously startled the people in the house, and they ran away in a hurry.
Huang Xinran is not deaf.
She had already woken up when the mother and daughter started arguing, as had Lu Yunchen beside her.
The difference is that Lu Yunchen got up, while she was still lying in bed without moving.
But when Lu Yunqian was angry and threw stones, she happened to break the tiles above her head, and the flying broken tiles almost hit her, forcing her to jump up.
Her action made it clear that she had been pretending to sleep.
When their eyes met Lu Yunchen's, both of them felt a little uncomfortable.
Fortunately, both of them tacitly agreed not to speak, and each went about their own business before quickly leaving the house.
Zhang Wenbi cursed a few times and couldn't help shedding a few tears. When the two came out, she was cursing and swearing to find a matchmaker as soon as possible to marry Lu Yunqian off, "so that I won't be upset when I see her wandering around at home."
Huang Xinran pretended not to understand and sat down to eat quietly.
Because he had to leave tomorrow, Lu Yunchen had already finalized today's schedule. He first went to the Public Security Bureau to inquire about the progress of the case. He then went to several of his comrades to take care of things. When he returned home, it was already dark and Huang Xinran had fallen asleep.
In fact, Huang Xinran didn't rest either.
Thinking about the fact that the other party took the initiative to mention that they would not divorce for the time being and let her and her child go to join the army, she felt sad and uneasy. She felt sad that this marriage was only temporary, and uneasy that she would go to join the army in the future, which would deviate from the plot in the original book.
The subsequent development should be completely different from the description in the original book, right?
