When Xiang Wanwan's feet touched the ground, she finally felt alive again.
It feels so good to be grounded!
Because the ship was carrying supplies, there were many soldiers in white uniforms waiting at the dock.
She put her hands on her hips, tilted her head back to feel the air on the ground, and closed her eyes comfortably.
The female soldiers nearby whispered among themselves:
"Whose family member is this? She's really good-looking."
"Look at that waist, so slender! And that hair, so long and smooth, so black and shiny."
"That little face isn't even as big as my palm!"
······
Xiang Wanwan stretched and then looked around.
Didn't they say someone was coming to pick her up?
Where are they?
She came to join the army; shouldn't Lu Jingnian have been waiting here already?
"Wanwan, I found out my husband's address. I'm taking the kids and heading out now. I'll come find you again once I'm settled."
Sister Wang was carrying several bags on her back and holding the hands of two children.
Xiang Wanwan frowned slightly. Are military wives treated so poorly?
Why aren't these people offering any help?
"Sister-in-law, are you sure you can manage? Should we find someone to take you there?"
"No, no need! I can carry this."
As soon as she finished speaking, she hurriedly took the child and left.
Seeing how swiftly she moved, Xiang Wanwan felt a little relieved.
It seems she really can!
Xiang Wanwan turned her head and looked at the four large boxes next to her.
She's not going to carry her own suitcase and go looking for it herself, is she?
Help!
Just then, a military green SUV drove up from the dock and came to a steady stop in front of her.
Then the car door clicked open, revealing a pair of long legs in black leather shoes stepping out, the trousers creases perfectly straight.
Immediately afterwards, a tall man got out of the car.
The man was dressed in a pristine white military uniform, his epaulets gleaming gold in the sunlight. He had handsome features, a high nose bridge, and a sharply defined jawline.
Xiang Wanwan looked at the man in front of her and her heart skipped a beat.
So handsome!
The man slowly walked towards her, and she felt her cheeks burning.
Is this Lu Jingnian?
Surprisingly, her husband, whom she married off to, is quite handsome!
The female soldiers next to him immediately erupted in excitement upon seeing Lu Jingnian.
"It's Commander Lu?!"
"What's his relationship with this woman? Why did he come to pick her up in person?!"
"I heard that Chief Lu got married. Could this be his wife?!"
"What? Then I don't have a chance."
Lu Jingnian's gaze fell on her, without the slightest ripple, very calm.
His Adam's apple bobbed, his voice possessing the steady composure characteristic of a soldier, yet carrying a distant coldness: "Xiang Wanwan?"
There were no superfluous words; it was as if the wife he had never met was no different from the targets on his training ground.
"Mmm." Xiang Wanwan nodded, letting out a soft sound.
She was not surprised at all by Lu Jingnian's attitude towards her.
After they got married, they lived apart. Since they didn't have much affection for each other to begin with, it was understandable that he was indifferent to her.
