Shi Qi blinked, digesting the meaning of Gu Chijin's words.
"My parents asked me to return to the capital?"
Looking at Gu Chijin, Shi Qi shook his head firmly and put his arms around his waist:
"I'm not going, I'll stay here with you.
Call me tomorrow and tell me that everything is fine in the military compound and I don’t want to go back to Beijing.”
Letting go of Gu Chijin, Shi Qi frowned and thought for a moment:
"Wait a minute, I'll tell you that my parents and brother must be suspicious of your idea.
I will write a letter and you can go to the city to mail it tomorrow."
As Shi Qi was about to get up to get something, Gu Chijin grabbed her and said with a smile:
"It's still early, let me hold you for a while. I'll make dinner and you can write later."
There has been a lot of work in the army these days, and Gu Chijin has been busy since he arrived. He missed her at home all day long.
Shi Qi sat back down beside him, looking at the faint weariness in his brows, and said:
"You take a rest, I'll make dinner."
Gu Chijin pulled the person into his arms and held him, shaking his head:
"No, I'll just hold you and sit for a while.
You've finally stopped vomiting these past few days, so cook less at home and I'll make dinner when I get home."
Thinking about what Li Shaoyu said on the phone today, Gu Chijin expressed another plan in his mind.
"If you like, I will apply to the army to be transferred to the capital next week.
When we get to Beijing, my parents and brother can come and take care of you when I'm not at home."
Shi Qi was stunned and said quickly:
"No, you can stay wherever you want. There's no need to request a troop transfer just to accommodate me."
Hearing what Gu Chijin said, Shi Qi directly refused.
She just got pregnant, and her reactions have gradually become much less severe in the past few days. She doesn't need anyone to take care of her at all.
Besides, transferring to the troops in the capital is easier said than done.
The most important thing is that Gu Chijin has finally become the battalion commander here, and he will definitely be demoted if he is transferred to the capital. Shi Qiyu can't bear to see him give up everything he has worked hard for just because she is pregnant.
Absolutely not.
“No concessions.
I want to develop in the military in Beijing."
Holding her tighter, Gu Chijin lowered his head and kissed her forehead, whispering:
"With my current qualifications, I can be a battalion commander in the army and there will be basically no change.
I am unwilling to stop here. There are more opportunities in Beijing, and I want to give it a try.
Would you like to go with me and try it?"
Shi Qi looked up at Gu Chijin, carefully observing the expression on his face, trying to discern the truth from his words, but after watching for a long time, the man's expression didn't change at all, and he couldn't help but feel discouraged.
"Gu Chijin, tell me honestly, did my dad and brother threaten you?
They asked you to persuade me, right?"
Gu Chijin was silent. Li Shaoyu's words today did not mean to threaten him at all, but he kept mentioning Shi Qi's safety in his words, so Gu Chijin did not dare to take the risk.
Seeing his silence, Shi Qi understood and suddenly became angry:
"How many times have I told you not to care about what they say, why don't you listen?
Are you and I husband and wife, or are they and you husband and wife?
I'm the one who will spend my whole life with you, why do you care about their thoughts?"
Looking at him helplessly, Shi Qi waved his hands and broke free from his arms:
"Forget it, forget it. I won't tell you. I'll write a letter and ask Mom to persuade Dad and Brother to stop thinking about it all the time.
I am a big living person, so I can take care of myself."
Shi Qi had just taken two steps when she was pulled back and fell into Gu Chijin's arms. Before Shi Qi could raise her head, her slender waist was locked by the man.
“Not them.
It’s me.”
Before Shi Qi could speak, he heard Gu Chijin's slightly tired voice ringing in his ear.
"I'm scared. Brother is right. I work in the army, and it's not safe for you to be alone in the military family compound.
If I get bumped and no one sees it, I can’t afford it…”
Shi Qi stopped pulling Gu Chijin and sighed inwardly:
"No. I'm basically with my sister-in-law during the day, it's not like I don't have anyone to keep me company.
Besides, I'm not a child. I will take care of my health. Don't worry, nothing will happen.
Besides, our only two friends are both in the military dependents' compound. If they really go to the capital, it will be difficult for us to get together in the future."
Gu Chijin didn't say anything. Thinking of what Ji Zhang said about Jiang Ling's thrilling childbirth, the big hand around Shi Qi's waist tightened inch by inch, and his eyes darkened.
There are some things he dare not say, and cannot say. He wants to nip any possible danger around Shi Qi in the bud.
"Don't worry about it. Go cook. I'll go back to my room and write a letter."
Shi Qi pried open Gu Chijin's palms again and went to the bedroom to get the letter paper.
Gu Chijin stared at her back for a while, then moved his gaze to her still flat belly and pursed his lips.
After a minute or two, Gu Chijin got up and walked towards the kitchen.
In the next few days, Gu Chijin remained very calm and he also sent out the letter that Shi Qi wrote to the Li family.
Shi Qi thought that Gu Chijin had given up the idea of letting her go to the capital, but unexpectedly, half a month later, Gu Chijin brought back a transfer letter.
Shi Qi opened the letter and read it quickly. He stared at the man in front of him in disbelief, waving the letter in his hand with a stern look on his face:
"Explain to me what it means to exchange officers between troops, and the timeframe is exactly one year!"
Gu Chijin protected Shi Qi's waist, glanced at the letter, and said calmly:
"The army suddenly issued a mission, saying that the country wants the troops in each province to communicate and learn more with each other.
As the battalion commander of the army, I was assigned by my superiors to participate in this exchange mission."
