Chapter 55: My love, Ruan Anan!
Just as Ruan Anan was feeling deeply moved, a man's voice suddenly sounded from behind her.
"Captain Xu?"
Ruan Anan and Xu Yancheng turned around at the same time and saw a man in an old military uniform that had been washed out and was bleached by dust standing not far away.
The man was in his early thirties, with tanned skin, a strong body, and regular features. The only difference was that there was a hideous and twisted scar on his left cheek, which made people feel scared at the sight of it.
"Captain Lu!" Xu Yancheng's tone became more excited when he saw the scarred man.
Ruan Anan was puzzled. Why did Xu Yancheng feel closer to this scarred man than to his immediate superior Qi Changan?
Her ears moved imperceptibly, and her eyes glanced at the old locust tree next to her.
Drinking spiritual spring water every day, his five senses are no longer comparable to those of ordinary people.
There is someone behind the tree!
Xu Yancheng grabbed Ruan Anan's wrist, and with a hint of imperceptible pride in his voice, he took the initiative to introduce: "Captain Lu, this is my wife, Ruan Anan!"
"An An, this is Captain Lu Helu, my old squad leader! We have a life-or-death friendship!"
"Hello, Comrade Ruan." Lu He's reaction was much calmer than Xu Yancheng's. He just nodded slightly.
Ruan Anan put on a polite smile that was just the right amount of politeness: "Captain Lu, I've long heard of your name."
"I haven't seen you for a year. You look more energetic and your shoulders are stronger!"
Lu He raised his hand and patted Xu Yancheng's strong shoulders heavily, with a relieved tone in his voice.
"You've made great progress. A captain who's not even thirty yet has a bright future!"
"Captain Lu!" Xu Yancheng's eyes darkened, and his throat seemed to be choked by something, "If it weren't for you back then..."
Lu He interrupted him, "What's wrong with me? I'm fine now! I don't have to drift on the sea anymore, I can take care of the logistics and have a lot of free time."
As he spoke, he changed the subject and looked at Ruan Anan: "Comrade Ruan, I look scary, so I won't accompany you. You just arrived on the island, so let Yan Cheng take you around. I'll make up for the wedding gift later."
Ruan Anan could tell that this man had a special relationship with Xu Yancheng, and immediately put on a bright and sincere smile: "Comrade Lu, that's what you said! The scar on your face is a medal of honor for defending our country! We admire you so much, how could we find it scary? Once we're settled, we'll invite Captain Lu to our home for dinner!"
Xu Yancheng moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he swallowed his words and left with Ruan Anan.
After the two of them walked away, Lu He coldly hooked his finger at the old locust tree on the side of the road.
A man, as skinny as a stick, slipped out from behind a tree with a flattering look on his face: "Xu Yancheng is so lucky! The wife he married looks like she walked right out of a magazine! Captain Lu, when you take him down, this beautiful young wife... hehe, can you give her to me as a reward?"
"Su Erhei," Captain Lu's voice suddenly turned cold, "Watch out for those dog eyes and foul mouths! Don't hang around near the military area, and don't even think about these nonsense. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
Su Erhei shrank back at the scolding, curling his lips in dissatisfaction. "She's just a delicate young lady from the city. How big a fuss can she cause? They're pushing us so hard! We've buried everything as you instructed, and we're just waiting for your letter of denunciation!"
"Xu Yancheng fights like a madman, and we can't reach the island without him. If you keep dragging your feet, aren't you afraid that person will get angry?"
Lu He glared at him fiercely, his eyes filled with murderous intent: "What are you afraid of? Tell them, if they ask me for help, they should show me some respect! And you, get out of here right now! If anyone sees us, we'll both be finished!"
Su Erhei was frightened by that look and ran away with his back hunched.
Lu He stared at the direction where he disappeared and sighed tiredly.
Just because of Ruan Anan's sharp glance behind the tree just now.
He knew that this capitalist lady from Hai City was no pushover!
He didn't want to alert the enemy unless it was absolutely necessary. But if the enemy insisted on bumping into him, then he couldn't be blamed...
Twenty meters away, in a shady corner of a low house.
Ruan Anan and Xu Yancheng were like two geckos, clinging tightly to the cold wall.
Ruan Anan stared at Lu He's blurry figure in the distance and asked in a low voice, "Xu Yancheng, you still have enemies on the island? Otherwise, why did that little bean sprout behind the tree just now act like a mouse seeing a cat when he saw you?"
Xu Yancheng's mind was blank now.
In order to hide, Ruan Anan's entire back was almost pressed against his chest.
As soon as he lowered his head, her fair and delicate neck and slightly concave collarbone penetrated his eyes.
He forced himself to turn his face away, but the hem of her skirt, with the fragrance of soapberries, still rubbed against his calves.
An unfamiliar, disconcerting tingling sensation instantly spread throughout my body, making my breathing disordered.
Ruan Anan was completely oblivious to the man's anomaly and analyzed the situation to herself, "Lu He is close to you, but that little Douya is so hostile to you that she doesn't even dare to show her face... So which side does Lu He stand on?"
"Tsk, say something!" Ruan Anan turned her head impatiently, only to see Xu Yancheng's handsome face flushed red.
She then chuckled, a bit teasingly: "Xu Yancheng, are you really that serious? Isn't it just that Lu He might have had some dealings with that little Douya? Look how angry you are, your face looks like Guan Gong!"
As she spoke, she pulled out the aluminum military water bottle from her army-green shoulder bag, unscrewed the lid, and handed it over. "Here, have a drink and calm down. Who is that little bean sprout? Did he have a grudge against you for stealing your wife or for killing your father?"
Xu Yancheng needed cold water to extinguish the evil fire, so he took the kettle and drank it.
The cold water slid down his throat, his bronze Adam's apple rolled up and down violently, and his strong jawline was stretched tight.
Ruan Anan couldn't help but mutter in her heart when she saw him like this.
He looks quite attractive, but unfortunately he seems to be not very smart, and he is very concerned about his reputation and is narrow-minded.
After taking a few gulps of cold water, Xu Yancheng felt that the heat was forcibly suppressed a little.
He took a step back suddenly, keeping a safe distance, and said with a soldier's solemnity, "They are not enemies, they are enemy spies."
"Enemy spy? I thought he was your mortal enemy..."
Ruan Anan responded casually, but just as the words came out of her mouth, her mind suddenly buzzed and she realized what those two words meant.
Her eyes widened and her voice cracked: "Enemy...enemy spies???!!!"
She is from the year 2025. The word "enemy spy" is so distant to her that it only exists in history books and old movies.
What ordinary people often talk about is "a walking half million"!
This was a living, breathing enemy spy, just twenty meters away!
A cold despair instantly gripped Ruan Anan's heart!
It’s over, it’s all over!
I thought that by escaping to the Nansha Islands and getting rid of the deadly label of "capitalist lady", I could live a peaceful life.
Who would have thought that he would fall into the tiger's mouth just after escaping from the wolf's den!
Being a capitalist lady in Hai City means at most being sent down to the countryside for reform, but there is still hope if you hold on.
But if you get involved with "enemy spies", you will be shot!
