I wonder where the military dependents live? I imagine it must be a lively place where they live. As long as they don't go to places they shouldn't go, they should be able to go anywhere else they want!
A short while later, someone knocked on the door, followed by Feng Yi's voice, "Baozhu, I've brought you breakfast."
He had seen the little girl standing by the window looking out when he started morning exercises, so he knew she must have gotten up.
Tang Baozhu wasn't actually hungry. She had eaten some fruit during her free time, and now all she wanted to do was go back as soon as possible. Although she could usually stay in one place for a long time, there was a difference between wanting to stay and being forced to stay in the dormitory.
Quickly open the door and let him in. "Didn't you start your vacation today? Why do you still have to go to training?"
I put the breakfast I brought on the table and quickly called her over to eat. "Eat quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold. I didn't know what you liked to eat now, so I just bought some steamed buns and fried dough sticks, which are the things you used to like."
"Okay, thank you."
"Why are you being so polite to me this time? You never knew before, I'm sorry, I never knew how to say thank you. You always took it for granted when I did something, and now you're thanking me. It's really a bit strange."
Feng Yi didn't think much of it, assuming the girl was just distant from him. After all, they hadn't seen each other for so many years, and perhaps the girl wasn't happy in the inner quarters, which made her feel a bit unfamiliar with him.
"As for training, I go to morning exercises every day. If I don't go one day, I feel uncomfortable all over. As long as it doesn't interfere with our work, doing exercises won't have any impact. I'm already used to it."
Tang Baozhu could understand this. If something she did every day was suddenly interrupted, she would definitely feel uneasy.
He took a fried dough stick, ate it, and then didn't want to eat anymore. "Brother Yi, I'm full. You can eat the rest yourself. Let's go back after we finish eating. It's too far. It would take at least eight hours to walk back."
Hearing that she had walked here, Feng Yi realized he had forgotten to ask her how she found the place. Taking advantage of the moment, he quickly asked, "How did you find me? You must have suffered a lot along the way!"
Her tone was full of concern, making Tang Baozhu feel very uncomfortable. "It wasn't too hard. Fortunately, I only had to search two military regions before I found you. I thought it would take a long time to find you. It seems I'm very lucky."
Tang Baozhu's plain and unassuming tone sounded like she was hiding her hardships to Feng Yi, making this grown man feel incredibly sorry for her and deeply moved.
This made Tang Baozhu feel extremely guilty, and she didn't know why. This Feng Yi was so fond of imagining things, and after imagining them, he felt that he had suffered a great injustice.
"Brother Yi, let's hurry up and eat breakfast. We still need to get back after breakfast. It's such a long way. If we don't get back soon, it will be very late."
"Okay, I'll eat right away. It definitely won't delay our return. I was thinking of borrowing a car from the military to take you back, but none of the cars are available. I'll just have to make you walk with me."
Feng Yi felt a little guilty when he talked about this. The unit had been established for so long, but it had never had many vehicles. There were only two cars in total, and they were always in a state where the people were idle but the cars were not. So they had to walk back.
"It's fine. We traveled a longer route here without any problems, and we'll be able to go back in even less time, so there won't be any issues either."
If she weren't afraid of scaring him, she would have liked to just put a car out of her space. There were vehicles stored in the second small world in her space, all of which were relatively durable off-road vehicles, not the kind of cars that would break down after going up a few steep hills.
Unfortunately, I dare not show them. They are all vehicles that do not exist now. If I did show them, I could not explain their origin, or I would be arrested as a spy sooner or later.
Feng Yi eats quite quickly, probably because he's used to eating in the army. He finishes a big bowl of breakfast in no time, and he doesn't look rude at all, which is enviable.
After finishing his meal, Feng Yi went to the tea room to wash the dishes and chopsticks. When he returned to his dormitory, he packed two sets of clothes and took a savings book with some loose change from the drawer.
He approached Tang Baozhu and handed her the bankbook directly. "This bankbook contains my salary from the past few years. I'll entrust it to you for safekeeping from now on. I don't usually spend much money. I don't drink or smoke much, and I only occasionally give gifts. Otherwise, I don't have any other expenses. It's all here. Take a look."
Tang Baozhu had no idea that this person would hand over his salary so quickly, and even seemed worried that she wouldn't accept it. But she really didn't want to accept it; it seemed improper for her to accept the salary now.
"Keep it for now, you can give it to me after we get the marriage certificate. Giving it to me now is not the right thing to do."
Tang Baozhu's refusal to accept his bankbook startled Feng Yi, who thought the young girl might have other ideas. He didn't dare to keep asking, and since she said she would keep it after they got their marriage certificate, he decided to give it to her after that, since it would only be two or three days.
After packing their things, the two of them carried their belongings out of the dormitory. As soon as they left the dormitory building, they ran into other people. Everyone had just finished breakfast and it wasn't time for training yet. Otherwise, the girls who came out of the dormitory would have startled the other residents. They didn't know when a girl had come to their dormitory.
Everyone only knew that Feng Yi's fiancée had arrived and assumed she would stay at a guesthouse. Unexpectedly, she stayed directly in Feng Yi's dormitory. A few people knew that Feng Yi had stayed in someone else's dormitory yesterday, but most people still didn't know.
Fortunately, someone explained that they weren't living together, so everyone stopped paying so much attention. At first, they thought they were living in the same room, which startled them.
Some people joked with Feng Yi, saying that they had never heard of him having a fiancée, apparently because his fiancée was too beautiful, so they kept her a secret.
Feng Yi kept smiling despite the teasing, which made others uncomfortable. They were used to his cold demeanor all the time, and his sudden smile sent a chill down their spines. No one dared to stop him from speaking anymore, and they all walked away.
It would be even better if no one stopped her. Tang Baozhu quickly followed Feng Yi toward the gate of the military base; she was already prepared to walk.
