Before we knew it, it was National Day.
Song Fanxing couldn't wait to go home.
The night before, she packed her things, planning to take the bus early the next morning.
The next morning, as soon as I went downstairs, I saw Zhou Zan.
Wearing a green military uniform, standing there straight, he was the man with the best physique she had ever seen.
He looked incredibly handsome in that military uniform.
No wonder those girls fluttered around him like butterflies.
He seemed to be enduring it; although he didn't look to the side or speak, his expression wasn't good.
Song Fanxing stood at a distance and admired the scene for a while before going to rescue him.
What brings you here?
When Zhou Zan saw her, his eyes lit up immediately, and he pushed through the crowd to stand in front of her.
"I've come to find you."
"What do you want from me?"
"I...I...Let's talk as we walk."
Zhou Zan couldn't stand the countless eyes staring at them, so he pulled Song Fanxing away.
A group of girls shook their heads regretfully.
Zhou Zan: "What are your plans for your holiday?"
Song Fanxing: "Go home."
When are you leaving?
"Now."
Zhou Zan frowned, then suddenly said, "Xingxing, do you want to come to the capital with me?"
"To the capital?"
"Yes, go see my grandparents. The magic water you gave me saved my grandmother's life last time. My grandparents are very grateful to you and have always wanted to meet you. When you get to the capital, I'll take you boating and let you try the local delicacies."
Song Fanxing was intrigued; she really wanted to go to the capital to see what it was like in the 1980s.
Zhou Zan looked at Song Fanxing expectantly.
Song Fanxing agreed after only one minute of thought.
"Okay, go."
Zhou Zan didn't expect the surprise to come so quickly.
He didn't really have high hopes that Song Fanxing would go to the capital with him.
He was planning to go back to the capital to visit his grandparents, as they were getting old and he was worried about them.
Before going back, he made a special detour to Lian City to see Song Fanxing.
The suggestion to send her to the capital was just a spur-of-the-moment idea.
"We'll leave right away and take today's train."
"Okay, but I need to go to the post office to call my dad first."
"Alright, alright, go make the call. We can't let Uncle Song and Aunt Fang worry."
The two arrived at the post office.
When Song Darong learned that his daughter was going to the capital, his first reaction was to object.
"No...daughter, what are you going to the capital for?"
Song Fanxing glanced at Zhou Zan.
He said into the phone, "Zhou Zan invited me to his house."
"Zhou Zan? He's with you? Why did he invite you to his house? What's he up to?"
The phone call had severe audio leakage, and Zhou Zanquan heard it.
Song Darong had a loud voice, full of energy. He was used to scolding his subordinates when he was a leader, and his imposing manner was intimidating.
Zhou Zan's heart trembled.
Song Fanxing said helplessly, "Dad, Zhou Zan is indeed there..."
"Let him answer the phone."
Song Darong interrupted.
Song Fanxing had no choice but to hand the phone to Zhou Zan.
Zhou Zan reluctantly accepted it.
"Uncle Song."
"You brat, what are you going to do with my daughter in the capital?"
Song Darong roared.
Zhou Zan felt like his ears were about to be deafened by his shouting.
“Xingxing has never been to the capital, so I’m letting her go and have some fun. Also, my grandparents want to meet her.”
"I disagree!"
Fang Jie returned home and realized she had forgotten her keys, so she went to Song Darong's office to get them.
I heard Song Darong say this as soon as I entered the office.
"Who are you talking to on the phone? What do you disagree with?"
Song Darong turned his head and saw his wife, and hurriedly complained, "Zhou Zan is trying to trick our daughter into going to the capital."
Zhou Zan and Song Fanxing: ...
Fang Jie's first reaction was also to disagree.
“I haven’t seen my daughter in a long time, I miss her, let her come home.”
Song Darong seemed to have found an ally.
“Wife, then you go and tell Zhou Zan to go back by himself and not to take our daughter away.”
Fang Jie answered the phone.
"Little Zan."
"Aunt Fang, I am Zhou Zan."
"Are you alright? Are you settling in well in the army?"
"Thank you for your concern, Aunt Fang. I'm fine."
"I heard you were in danger last time, it really scared me."
Song Darong glanced at Fang Jie and felt that she had laid too much groundwork.
"Yes, thanks to Xingxing, I was spared. From now on, Xingxing is the person I will protect for the rest of my life."
Fang Jie liked hearing this.
Song Fanxing glanced at Zhou Zan.
No one has ever told her that they will protect her for life.
Fang Jie: "Okay, okay, Xiao Zan, I'm very relieved to have you protecting Xingxing. She wants to go to the capital, right? Go ahead, have a few more days, take her around, just don't lose her."
Song Darong: ...
You promised not to let your daughter go!
He glared angrily at Fang Jie.
Fang Jie pretended not to see it.
"Don't worry, Aunt Fang, I'll take good care of Xingxing."
Song Fanxing snatched the phone.
She said sweetly into the other end of the line, "Mom, thank you. I'll be back in a few days."
"Okay, be careful."
"Um."
"It must be cold over there. Bring some warm clothes so you don't catch a cold."
"knew."
"When you visit Xiaozan's grandparents, you should bring a small gift as a token of respect."
"I will."
"Buy whatever you like, don't be stingy with money."
Song Fanxing thought for a moment and said, "If I see a house I like, can I buy it?"
Fang Jie was stunned for a moment.
Her daughter is no ordinary person; the questions she asked were quite unusual.
