Chapter 13 Military Marriage 2
When she returned to the guesthouse, she saw two young men checking in at the front desk. Ning Yan took a second look at them. To be honest, both of them were quite good-looking, and they were also soldiers, since they were wearing military uniforms.
Perhaps they had been looking at each other for a while, because one of them suddenly turned his head away.
Ning Yan saw the face clearly. The profile was already extremely beautiful, but the front view was even more captivating. The features were exquisite, and the fox-like eyes were beautiful and alluring.
Fair skin, beautiful face, and long legs are usually used to describe women, but they also fit the description of the man in front of me.
However, this woman's appearance doesn't quite fit current aesthetic standards; well, only she can appreciate it.
Ning Yan smiled at the other person, then turned and went upstairs.
Xiao Nian's gaze followed her movements until she disappeared around the corner of the stairs.
Qu Muyang patted his friend on the shoulder, "Your eyes are glued to you! You've got your eye on someone?"
Xiao Nian withdrew his gaze. "What, are you planning to play matchmaker for me?"
Qu Muyang: ...My brother used to be so arrogant. He even said he'd stay single forever, but look what happened, he fell in love at first sight!
"This is your territory, what matchmaker am I playing? But a young girl like you staying at a guesthouse must be the wife or fiancée of one of your comrades visiting. You have no chance."
Xiao Nian felt a little regretful and looked away. "Hurry up, I need to go back to training after you're settled."
The military region was forming a special operations team, and he was transferred here to be the captain. It seemed like a lateral transfer, but it was actually a promotion. He was going to be very busy in the next few months.
As a result, Lao Qu even came over to find him something to do.
"Okay, okay, I'll go put my luggage away now. It won't delay your plans."
His family has arranged a marriage for him, and he happens to have some time off to come and get to know his fiancée better. If things go well, they'll get married soon.
Ning Yan slept in her room for half a day. When she woke up, it was already dark outside. She made do with some food to fill her stomach, changed into dark clothes, and went to the military base again.
It was early summer evening, around eight or nine o'clock, and there weren't many people outside. The guard on duty heard that she was looking for Zhou Hongjun and let her go immediately.
Ning Yan guessed that Zhou Hongjun might not be home, but she still went to his dormitory.
Company Commander Zheng: "Someone was looking for him just now, so he went out."
"Does Brother Zheng know who is looking for him?"
Company Commander Zheng would never cover for Zhou Hongjun and deceive a female comrade's feelings. Zhou Hongjun was a big problem. "It must be Bai Moli from Regiment Commander Bai's family. In the afternoon, Bai Moli's fiancé came over. I heard that the two had some unpleasantness, and Bai Moli called Company Commander Zhou away that night."
"It's so late at night, and they're a man and a woman meeting up outside all alone, and you...,"
It's better to dump an unfaithful person sooner rather than later, otherwise your marriage won't be smooth sailing.
Ning Yan understood the unspoken meaning in the other person's words, "Thank you for reminding me, Company Commander Zheng. I know what to do."
"Well, I'm not very familiar with this area. Could you please help me find Zhou Hongjun, Brother Zheng?"
Company Commander Zheng nodded in agreement after only a moment's thought.
The two headed straight for the grove after leaving the dormitory. There were only a few places in the military region suitable for a date between a man and a woman, and the grove was definitely the top choice.
Moreover, the original owner saw the two of them hugging in the grove.
So as soon as Company Commander Zheng finished explaining his guess, Ning Yan nodded.
The grove was in the southwest corner of the training ground. When she got to the edge of the grove, Ning Yan deliberately kept her footsteps down.
The woods weren't very big to begin with, and the two of them had only walked a few dozen meters into the woods when they saw two figures embracing each other.
“Brother Hongjun, it’s true that it’s a bit difficult for us to be together, but I believe that one day you will soar to great heights. When that time comes, you can come to my house to propose marriage, and my father will definitely agree.”
Who could have imagined that Zhou Hongjun, a peasant from a humble background, rose through the ranks through her own abilities in her previous life, while her husband Qu Muyang died just over a year after their marriage, leaving her with a burden. Her second marriage was to a widower with two sons, and she eventually died unexpectedly.
In this life, she would never make the wrong choice. Zhou Hongjun was devoted to her, so she might as well just snatch him away first.
As for his wife, she died in childbirth in her previous life. He married Zhou Hongjun, which saved her life. She should be thanking him.
Zhou Hongjun could hardly contain his joy. "Jasmine, for you, I will definitely work hard, strive to complete more missions and make another contribution, and then I will go to your house to propose marriage."
"Yes, yes, yes, our military region is going to establish a special operations team, and you will likely join it. The chances of promotion in the special operations team are much greater than in the regular regiment, so you'd better work hard."
Zhou Hongjun was so excited to hear such big news that he kissed Bai Moli on the cheek.
Bai Moli said sweetly, "What are you doing? You're not allowed to kiss me anymore. Don't forget, you still have a fiancée!"
Zhou Hongjun practically swore to the heavens, "I'll send her back immediately and have my mother go to her house to break off the engagement."
Bai Moli: "We were in the wrong after all. If necessary, we should give her some compensation so that I won't feel uneasy later."
When she died, Zhou Hongjun was already a brigade commander. It's easy to imagine that his future achievements would be much greater than that. Having taken Zhou Hongjun's fiancée, she felt somewhat guilty.
"Okay, okay, whatever you say."
Ning Yan overheard the entire disgusting conversation between the two people and couldn't help but speak up, "No need for all that trouble. I'm right here. Why wait until we get back to my hometown to talk about it?"
Let's make things clear right here!
Her voice startled the two men. Zhou Hongjun quickly released Bai Moli from his arms, his eyes filled with panic. "Ning Yan, what are you doing here?"
"How would I have known you were hugging and kissing someone else late at night, and that you were going to dump me, if I hadn't come here?"
Bai Moli was indeed very nervous at first, but when she saw that Ning Yan was the only one there, she immediately relaxed. "Comrade Ning, feelings can't be controlled. Brother Zhou doesn't like you. Even if you force yourself to marry him, you won't be happy. Why don't you let go and go back to find a good family? What do you think?"
"Should I thank you for saving me from this hellhole?"
You're the first person to describe being a mistress as something noble; this is truly eye-opening!
How about I order a banner from outside tomorrow and send it to your workplace? On the left it says "Rescued people from fire and water," and on the right it says "Slut who stole scumbag boyfriend!"
"So, isn't what I wrote on this banner particularly accurate?"
The two bitches turned pale. If she really did that, they would be completely finished. Their dreams of success and wealth would be gone. All they would have to do was be pointed at and gossip, and never be able to hold their heads up again.
As soon as the couplet was displayed, an irrepressible laugh echoed from the woods.
