Sheng Yi gently inhaled the fragrance emanating from Zhu Qinghao's head, feeling at ease while secretly sighing.
Isn't there a way to have the best of both worlds?
Zhu Qinghao seemed to know what he was thinking, rested her head on his chest, and said softly:
"Actually, it's not that there's absolutely no way out, but I feel that you might not want to accept it."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Yi lowered his head:
"Is Haohao trying to say that after we get married, I'll go back to work in the army, while you stay in the village to be with your family?"
Zhu Qinghao looked up in surprise, her eyes sparkling like stars.
"That's right, Grandpa Sheng is here too. I can stay in the village to take care of both sets of grandparents, while you go back to the military hospital to focus on your career. Isn't that a good idea?"
And look, every year during your vacation, you visit all your relatives as soon as you come back. Isn't that convenient?"
Sheng Yi could tell that Zhu Qinghao genuinely thought this method was quite good, but that wasn't what he truly believed.
What kind of good man would want to be separated from his wife after marriage, living far apart?
But does it really matter what he thinks?
"Okay, okay, I don't think this is a good idea?"
Zhu Qinghao didn't see anything wrong with this issue.
"What's wrong with it? I think it's alright, isn't it?"
Zhu Qinghao, who is constantly being clung to by Sheng Yi, has never experienced the heartache of separation, let alone this kind of long-term separation.
Sheng Yi knew why she couldn't perceive the problem, so he simply sighed softly and smiled:
"Okay, there's no rush anyway, so let's just take it one step at a time, how about that?"
Zhu Qinghao couldn't think of a suitable answer, and of course she couldn't wait for Sheng Yi to let her go, afraid that she would nod too slowly.
"Okay, okay, let's take it one step at a time."
Seeing her relieved expression, Sheng Yi chuckled.
Forget it, let him think of a better way himself, or ask Yuan Yue when he gets back to the army to see if there's a better way.
As for now, let's not make things difficult for his little girl anymore. Look at her wrinkled face; you can tell she's really out of options.
After dinner, Sheng Yi went with her to the cowshed to deliver some things, then took her home before leaving on his own.
Unbeknownst to Zhu Qinghao, she was becoming more and more accustomed to Sheng Yi's presence and increasingly dependent on him.
Sheng Yi himself noticed it, but he was just happy and didn't tell anyone.
If I tell them, and then feel embarrassed and take everything back, what am I going to do?
The Zhu family and Grandpa Sheng could also see that the relationship between the two was becoming increasingly close, and they were all silently happy for them.
While the villagers were busy with the business of selling mountain products, a pair of evil hands reached out to Zhu Qinghao.
That day, Zhu Qinghao and Si Tian returned early after picking pine cones on the mountain, so Sheng Yi's meal was not yet ready.
Zhu Qinghao glanced at the sky outside, then looked at Sheng Yi, who didn't need her help, and simply took her clothes to the river to wash them.
She ran into Huang Ying on the way, but she only glanced at her briefly before walking towards the river, ignoring her.
Since their last argument, she's almost gotten used to Huang Ying's ever-present presence.
Perhaps they thought that following Zhu Qing would help them find things; in any case, ever since their last argument, Huang Ying and Zhou Chunli had been running into them on their way up the mountain.
