Zhao Yilu, who was wearing a green military uniform and looked a little embarrassed because he was in a hurry, looked straight at Fan Hua who was standing in the door in one piece...
The worry he had been carrying for the past few days finally came to his mind. He pulled at the wrinkles on his shirt unconsciously with his fingers and asked in a hoarse voice, "Can I go in and have a drink of water?"
Fan Hua immediately opened the door: "Come in quickly!"
Geng Ailing's jaw dropped when she saw who was coming. How could Cao Cao appear like this? It was too magical!
Zhao Yilu nodded politely towards Geng Ailing, "Hello, Comrade Geng!"
"Hello, Comrade Zhao!...Well, I'll go sit next door with Su Wen for a while, you two can chat!" Geng Ailing tactfully made way.
"Thank you, Comrade Geng!" Zhao Yilu sincerely expressed his gratitude to Geng Ailing.
After Geng Ailing left, there were only two people left in the house. Zhao looked around the place where Fan Hua lived without leaving a trace. The house was not big, but it was simple and tidy, and looked pretty good.
Fan Hua had calmed down her nervousness and surprise at seeing Zhao Yilu all of a sudden, and she asked, "Comrade Zhao, why did you suddenly come to Yangcheng?"
"I heard you were hospitalized. Where were you injured? How are you now?"
Zhao Yilu looked straight at Fan Hua, his eyes scanning Fan Hua's thin body, he couldn't help but frowned, and continued: "Why are you thinner again?"
Fan Hua has not had a good appetite these days. She can't eat anything except spicy and sour bamboo shoots. She is less than three months old, but not only has her belly not gained weight, she is even thinner than before. Her whole face looks like the size of a palm!
Fan Hua felt a little embarrassed by Zhao Yilu's concerned gaze. "I'm fine. I'm fully recovered now. You didn't come to Yangcheng to see me just because you heard that I was in the hospital, did you?"
Zhao Yilu concealed his unnatural emotions and said, "I came to Yangcheng to participate in the training competition. I just arrived today and asked for two hours of leave. Excluding the time spent on the road, I can stay here with you for half an hour."
When Fan Hua heard what Zhao Yilu said, she couldn't help but feel that time was running out, and she spoke a little faster. "Well, have you eaten? You can still have a meal in half an hour. I'll accompany you to the state-owned restaurant downstairs to have some food! Otherwise, it will be a bit late when you go back."
Zhao Yilu indeed felt that the atmosphere would be a bit awkward sitting alone in the room with Fan Hua, so he nodded.
Fan Hua led Zhao downstairs. Because she had just fallen down the stairs and the doctor repeatedly told her to be careful and walk slowly in the future, Fan Hua walked very slowly down the stairs...
Zhao Yilu, who was walking side by side, watched Fan Hua's cautious steps with worry in his eyes. Zhao Yilu slowed down his pace unnoticeably and walked on the outside, protecting her with his hands vaguely.
When they arrived at the state-owned restaurant, Fan Hua ordered a plate of spicy and sour bamboo shoots and two quick stir-fried dishes, and then sat down opposite Zhao Yilu.
It had only been a month since they last met. The man in front of her looked much darker than when they first met on the train, but his features had a more masculine air that only a soldier could have. Fan Hua stared at the little teardrop mole at the corner of Zhao Yilu's eye and couldn't help but think of the dream that she still remembered so vividly. It was so real, as if it was imprinted in her mind...
Zhao Yilu looked at the little girl in front of him who was staring at him in a daze without hiding her feelings, and couldn't help but ask, "Comrade Fan, do you think I'm good-looking?"
