Ning Yuan was stunned. She had just paid the money and was holding the sweet potato when she turned her head and saw a handsome face with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes.
Especially since the other party was wearing a military uniform.
Unlike Rong Zhaonan, Ning Weiheng was a typical handsome, tall, and dashing man, like a military uniformed member of the National Flag Guard.
The kind that can be featured on a magazine cover or used in promotional videos.
Ning Yuan stared at that familiar handsome face for a long while, her eyes somewhat dazed.
She rubbed her eyes, making sure it wasn't a hallucination, and the sweet potato in her hand suddenly fell to the ground.
Ning Yuan didn't care. She rushed over and threw herself into his arms, hugging him and crying, "Big brother—!"
The only person who truly loved her in her past life was her eldest brother, who sacrificed himself at the young age of twenty-nine.
Now, standing right in front of her, still young and vibrant, how could she not be excited?
Ning Weiheng was nearly knocked off balance by her lunge, but he managed to steady himself and catch her slender waist.
A deep tenderness flashed in his eyes as he gently patted her back: "Alright, alright, don't cry... Your big brother's here..."
As Ning Yuan listened to this familiar words of comfort, she couldn't stop the tears from streaming down her face.
When I was a child, I upset Ning Jinyun and was scolded with my ear twisted.
Or perhaps he was beaten and physically punished by Bai Jin for not doing housework well.
Even Ning Zhuliu would just pat her head, give her a piece of candy, and tell her to reflect on her actions and not to upset her mother and aunt.
Only in her eldest brother's arms could she cry out her grievances and sadness, and only her eldest brother would help her apply medicine.
But this kind older brother ended up marrying Tang Zhenzhen because of him, though their relationship was not harmonious.
My eldest brother sacrificed his life while fighting floods when he was 29 years old.
Compared to Ning Bingyu, a business tycoon who might have a real blood relation and lives a life of luxury, he is a complete stranger.
Ning Yuan considers Ning Weiheng, who grew up with her and protected her, to be the truly important older brother.
After being reborn, he immediately turned against Tang Zhenzhen, not only for his own sake but also largely for the sake of his elder brother.
The later falling out with Ning Jinyun couldn't be explained in just a few words in a letter.
Once in Shanghai, she kept thinking about meeting her elder brother, but Ning Weiheng was never at his residence.
The letter could only be delivered by someone from the unit, and even when Ning Zhu left it, she didn't see her older brother who was on a mission.
Who would have thought I'd see my brother here? Alive, still alive!!
Ning Yuan clung to Ning Weiheng like an octopus, crying her eyes out.
Ning Weiheng held the girl in his arms, patting her back in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Then, he looked awkwardly at the row of comrades who had come to see him off.
Seven or eight soldiers looked at their battalion commander holding a petite girl with strange expressions.
This girl isn't even an adult yet... Battalion Commander, your girlfriend is so young, won't she make a mistake?
Ning Yuan didn't even notice the line of people behind Ning Weiheng; she just hugged him and cried.
Not far behind the row of young men in military uniforms, a figure with an extremely handsome and dark face watched the scene with a gloomy expression.
The tall man beside him looked tormented, wanting to speak but not daring to.
The exceptionally handsome man, with a cold expression, turned and boarded the train with a sullen face.
His companions quickly followed.
He muttered to himself the whole way—Holy crap, the captain got raided after more than half a month?!
"Commander... um... the flight attendant is urging us to board the train..."
A strange voice rang out, stammering slightly.
Ning Yuan suddenly looked over Ning Weiheng's shoulder and noticed a row of green military uniforms standing not far away.
She froze, her face flushed with embarrassment: "Brother, you brought people with you, why didn't you say anything..."
Ning Weiheng smiled helplessly: "Did you give me time to speak?"
He could tell what his men were thinking just by looking at their expressions.
But he didn't correct his subordinates' ideas, letting them guess.
After all, he knew the character of his rough and uncouth subordinates. If these guys knew he had a beautiful, unmarried younger sister, they would definitely have ideas!
Then I heard the train's whistle urging me to board.
Ning Weiheng patted Ning Yuan on the back and asked gently, "Alright, little sister, did you come on this train? Let's talk on the train."
Ning Yuan quickly released her grip on Ning Weiheng's waist, only then noticing that he was still carrying a military backpack.
She quickly sniffed: "Okay, let's talk in the car!"
Seeing his living relatives filled him with joy, and he became a little carried away for a moment.
Ning Weiheng smiled, patted her head, and still regarded her as the timid little sister he used to know.
He turned around, his expression turning stern.
The gentle older brother became the stern Battalion Commander Ning.
A row of handsome young men in military overcoats were craning their necks to watch their battalion commander gossip.
At that moment, they immediately stood at attention, their posture upright, listening to the instructions.
Ning Yuan stared longingly at her older brother, unaware that her "fascination" was being observed by another pair of cold and exquisite phoenix eyes.
Ning Weiheng dismissed the group of subordinates who insisted on seeing him off, and got into the car with Ning Yuan and another companion.
"Big brother, where are you going on a mission this time?"
"Hey little sister, what are you doing here? Weren't you cutting in line?"
As soon as the train started moving, the two of them couldn't wait any longer and asked each other at the same time through the doorway.
Ning Yuan answered without hesitation: "I was admitted to Fudan University last July, so I came here to study."
Ning Weiheng was stunned: "You... got into Fudan University?"
When did my little sister become so amazing? She was only an average student in junior high school!
"Why didn't Mom and Dad tell me what happened when you wrote to me last time saying you didn't need to send me money anymore?" Ning Weiheng frowned.
He knew nothing. The last time he received a letter from Ning Yuan was half a year ago. She only wrote about how much she missed him and emphasized that he didn't need to send money.
His adoptive parents' letters contained nothing but asking for money.
Ning Yuan glanced at the young soldier next to Ning Weiheng.
Only one company commander got on the bus with Ning Weiheng this time.
He had initially thought that his battalion commander's spring had arrived, but after listening to the battalion commander talking to that young girl, it didn't seem to be the case.
They're clearly family.
The young soldier sighed inwardly, realizing that his battalion commander hadn't come for spring.
Seeing Ning Yuan looking at him, he tactfully avoided listening to the battalion commander's family affairs: "Battalion commander, I'm going to find our seats. Captain Rong and the others should already be waiting for us."
Ning Weiheng nodded: "Okay."
Ning Yuan's ears perked up immediately!
Hmm, Rong Dui? What does "Rong" mean?
But before she could think about it, Ning Weiheng's brows furrowed: "Little sister, what exactly happened?"
Ning Yuan picked at her ears, thinking she must have misheard. Even if Rong Zhaonan wasn't in Hong Kong, he should be in Guangzhou or Shenzhen at this time.
How did it end up in a small town in northern Guangdong?
