The old man laughed out loud when he heard this. His grandson was busy in the army every day, and he had always been worried that he would not agree. It was great that he could finally open his mind!

"I heard that the girl went to the military area to look for you. You should leave in the next two days and get along well with her so that your grandfather can have a great-grandson sooner!"

Gu Zhixing frowned, "What girl?"

"It's your childhood sweetheart, Comrade Xiao Su. You and that girl should get married formally if it's suitable. The girl is still young and not yet of marriageable age, so you two can cultivate your relationship more."

Gu Zhixing's brows furrowed more and more tightly, "Grandpa, I don't need to meet the person you mentioned, Comrade Su."

When Mr. Gu heard this, he slammed his hands on the table and said, "What did you say? What object? I don't agree. This Miss Su has been engaged since she was a child. Unless she despises you, you must marry her."

"Grandpa, I can obey you on other matters, but not on this matter. I will only marry the girl I like."

When Mr. Gu heard this, he stood up angrily and said, "Impossible, our Gu family would never do anything to betray our trust."

Gu Zhixing stood up and said, "Grandpa, I can't do it."

"You...you..." Mr. Gu covered his chest and fell on the sofa.

A group of people were shocked and quickly gathered around. Gu Zhixing was very upset when he saw his grandfather's appearance. How could he have forgotten that his grandfather was in poor health? His grandfather passed away not long after he had an accident in his last life.

The guard immediately brought the medicine over. After the old man took it, he breathed a sigh of relief. Gu Zhixing half-knelt in front of the old man.

"Grandpa, I promised you to meet that girl, please don't be angry."

Old Master Gu sighed and said, "Zhixing, if it weren't for the protection of the Su family, our troops would have probably met with an accident. We can't be ungrateful."

Gu Zhixing lowered his head, "I understand, Grandpa."

Mr. Gu touched Gu Zhixing's head and said, "Good boy."

Gu Zhixing helped his grandfather upstairs, and waited until his grandfather fell asleep before he tiptoed out of the room.

Gu Yongchang saw his son coming out, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Your grandpa is old now, and he hasn't been in good health recently. Don't make him angry in the future!"

Gu Zhixing nodded, "I understand, Dad."

"When are you going to return to the military area?"

"I'm leaving early tomorrow morning, and then I have to go back to Luoan."

"Going back to Luoan? Haven't we finished dealing with things over there?"

"It's still okay."

"Okay, then you should pay more attention to yourself."

Gu Zhixing responded and returned to his room.

Unexpectedly, his childhood sweetheart would come to the military district to look for him.

But Grandpa said that as long as the woman doesn't like him, it's fine.

He looked at his unshaven self in the mirror, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

Su Yuechan got on the bus with several other ladies in the compound, and the group of people were talking and laughing.

"Yuechan, what are you going to buy?"

"Just strolling around. This is my first time in Beijing, so I'd like to take a look around and broaden my horizons."

"You're a girl, it's better for you to be younger. There are so many prostitutes nowadays. Who knows if they will have bad ideas when they see you are so pretty!"

"Thank you, Auntie. I will be careful."

"Okay, okay, by the way, I mentioned before that I would introduce you to someone..."

"Auntie Li, I'm not even 18 yet, I'm still a minor!"

"Hey, let's meet first, maybe we'll fall in love, then we can find a partner and get married."

Su Yue asked, why do the ladies in this compound like to be matchmakers so much?

As Gu Zhixing drove into the military area, he saw the military commuter bus speeding past him.

He frowned, "It seems that I missed Xiao Chan too much. I was dazzled just now and thought it was Xiao Chan in the car."

He parked the car and walked straight towards the administration building.

On the other side, Su Yuechan was sitting in a car, chatting with a group of aunts and sisters. After a while, she had a thorough understanding of the black market in Beijing.

After getting in the car, she went straight to the department store.

From a distance, she saw Zhang Jinbu wandering in front of the department store, and she walked over quickly.

"Sister~"

"How's it going? What time did you arrive?"

“It arrived last night!”

"Let's go, I'm going to the state-owned hotel to have a meal first."

"good."

"Sister, I have already contacted the person in charge of the black market last night!"

"Oh, so soon?"

"It was King's help that made me go there the first thing I did when I arrived last night."

"So, what's their purchase price?"

"Sister, you don't know that the price on the black market here is ridiculously high! I showed them our rice, and they said that as long as it's of this quality, they'll give me a piece."

“So many!”

"Yeah, I didn't expect that. There's also fruit and the like. They said that no matter what kind of fruit, all will be charged at two yuan per pound! By the way, this is the payment for the goods last time. I have deposited it in the bank."

Then he handed a passbook to Su Yuechan.

Su Yuechan took it, opened it and saw, "Hmm, not bad," fifteen thousand, plus the money she had saved before, it was almost one hundred thousand.

"Okay, you go find a warehouse first, and I'll figure out the source of goods."

"Oh, okay sis!"

Then Su Yuechan took out 1,000 yuan from her pocket and handed it to Zhang Jinbu, "This will be the starting capital for this time."

"Sister, it won't take that much!"

"Just take it if it's given to you. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Just find a place to live by yourself. It's not a big deal to always stay in a guesthouse."

"That's what I thought. I'll start looking for a house later."
