Lu Jianan originally didn't want to come to today's social gathering, but because he had been avoiding it all the time, the political commissar, who had lost his patience this time, didn't give him a chance to refuse and directly gave him a death order that he must come.
Seeing that his old leader no longer let him fool around and gave the order directly, Lu Jianan was helpless.
A soldier's duty is to obey orders, so he can only come to the social gathering.
Anyway, it's all up to him to go. It's up to him to find a partner or not. So go ahead. The provincial political commissar keeps calling him about this.
Originally, Lu Jianan wanted to just show up and then leave early.
However, he didn't expect that the leader was on guard against him this time. Not only did he ask someone to watch him, but he also set a time limit for the social gathering, and no one was allowed to leave before the time was up.
Although no one could stop him if he wanted to leave by force, there was no need to do so.
If you don't want to find a partner, just find a place to stay and leave when the time comes. Anyway, it's up to him to decide whether to have a partner or not.
However, there were many people in the auditorium, and from time to time someone would come up to test his thoughts. Lu Jianan was a little annoyed and annoyed, so he found a reason to come out and get some fresh air.
Not wanting to be seen by others, I found a secluded corner. Just as I was about to lean against the wall to smoke a cigarette, I found that there was already someone in front of me.
It was a first come first served basis, and he didn't want to disturb them, so Lu Jianan prepared to move to another place.
I stopped and was about to turn around when I found that the person in front of me heard the noise and turned around.
That was a very beautiful woman!
A hint of surprise flashed in Lu Jianan's eyes.
When Jianshu turned around, he saw a man in military uniform, probably a soldier attending the social gathering.
Although the light was against his back, he could still vaguely see his appearance.
His strong facial features, outstanding looks, mature and reserved demeanor, straight posture, and that unique military charm made Jianshu linger on him for a while.
Being handsome is nothing. After being exposed to various modern domestic and foreign celebrities, she has seen many handsome guys, but the man in front of her still surprised her.
Some people are handsome, some have good temperament, but the person in front of me has both, and the combination of these qualities makes the effect of one plus one greater than two.
However, although I was a little surprised, Jianshu didn’t have any other thoughts.
After all, she herself has outstanding looks, and the people around her, such as Zhao Mingze, Meng Ying, Qian Wenhan, Li Li, Pan Ning, etc., also have their own beauty. In addition, the parents in her memory are also first-class in appearance. It can be said that she has developed resistance to beauty.
So she just admired Lu Jianan's appearance. After all, everyone loves beauty. Besides, she is a face control, so it is not illegal to look at a handsome guy a few more times.
However, this is not an open modern society, and it is not good to stare at a person of the opposite sex like this, so Jianshu immediately withdrew his gaze.
Just as I was about to leave, I heard the other person's voice.
"Hello, comrade. Sorry to bother you." A deep voice came from the front, making Jianshu look forward again.
"This is a public place, not anyone's private place. There's no such thing as disturbing or not disturbing. If I can come, you can come, and everyone can come. Comrade, you are too polite." Jian Shu said.
She couldn't take other people's courtesy for granted. This was the machinery factory, not her territory. She had just come here first, and there was no reason to stop others from coming.
However, in this case, Jianshu couldn't leave immediately, lest the other party think it was because of him.
Jianshu didn't care, so Lu Jianan stayed and found a place a little distance away from Jianshu and stood against the wall.
After all, both of them are single, and being too close will have a bad influence, so they still have to keep their distance. At this time, the relationship between men and women is still very strict.
"Hello, comrade. My name is Lu Jianan, Lu means mainland, Jian means founding the country, and An means safety." Lu Jianan broke the silence and took the lead in introducing himself.
Jian Shu originally thought that the two of them had just met by chance and were just passing by, but he didn't expect the other party to actually introduce himself.
Jianshu was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and replied: "Hello Comrade Lu, I am Jianshu, the simple Jian, the reading book."
"Comrade Jian, are you here to attend the social gathering as well? Why is you outside alone and not staying inside?" Lu Jianan asked.
"I came here to attend a social gathering, but there were too many people inside and it was a bit stuffy, so I came out to get some fresh air." Jianshu told the truth.
Lu Jianan nodded and said, "I was also feeling a bit bored and wanted to get some fresh air. It seems we are quite destined to meet each other while out for some fresh air. I wonder if Comrade Jian has gained anything today?"
"What gains does Comrade Lu refer to?" Jian Shu asked uncertainly.
A social gathering is a blind date gathering. What else can you gain besides finding a partner?
What did Lu Jianan mean by this? Was it what she thought he meant? However, Jian Shu was too embarrassed to ask directly. If she guessed wrong, it would be embarrassing.
Lu Jianan stepped forward, looked at Jian Shu and said solemnly, "Comrade Jian Shu, let me reintroduce myself. My name is Lu Jianan, I'm 28 years old, from W City, and I currently serve in the Jing City Military Region as a deputy battalion commander.
My parents are still alive. I have an older brother, two younger brothers and a younger sister. My older brother and younger brother are married, and my younger sister just started high school this year. My parents and brothers all have their own jobs.
I was married before. My wife died of complications during childbirth of our youngest son, leaving behind three children, two boys and one girl. My eldest son is seven years old, my daughter is five years old, and my youngest son is just two years old. They are all in my hometown now, being raised by my mother.
My basic salary is 89 yuan a month, plus my military service salary, etc., which is enough to support my whole family..."
Before Lu Jianan could finish his words, he was interrupted by Jianshu.
"Wait, Comrade Lu, what do you mean?" Jianshu felt something was wrong the more he listened. Why was he telling him this?
And if she remembered correctly, these were all discussed during the blind date, right? Why did Lu Jianan tell her this?
Could it be that as she had guessed before, Lu Jianan wanted to date her?
No way, if she remembered correctly, this was their first meeting, love at first sight? Jian Shu was a little skeptical.
But soon, Lu Jianan confirmed her guess.
"Comrade Jianshu, I want to date you." Soldiers are straightforward and decisive, and Lu Jianan perfectly inherited this style. He didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose.
However, this shocked Jianshu, and he didn't react and reply for a while.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Lu Jianan continued what he had not finished saying before and continued to introduce his situation to Jianshu.
He told everyone about his family background, personal situation, and so on, and then waited silently for Jianshu's answer.
"Comrade Jianshu, this is my basic situation. I wonder what you think?" Lu Jianan stared at Jianshu, waiting for her answer.
