Zhao Yilu glanced at his watch. There were still four minutes left...
"Lihua, I still have to stay in the army for at least three more years... We'll be apart more often than together these few years, and I won't be able to be with you all the time. I don't know when we'll meet again, so there are some things I don't want to put off. I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you face to face today."
Fan Hua clenched her sweaty palms tightly, looking at Zhao Yilu nervously but also with a little anticipation, waiting for him to continue.
"I'll be twenty in two months. If you're willing, I'll file a marriage registration in two months! Lihua, I want to marry you!"
Fan Hua was so surprised that she simply didn't know what to say...
She thought that Zhao Yilu might like her a little, otherwise he wouldn't call her every week and send her an allowance every month, but she never thought that Zhao Yilu would actually want to marry her!
"Comrade Zhao, we've only known each other for a month, and this is our second meeting..."
"I know, Lihua, but I am indeed attracted to you, and I want to have a deeper relationship with you." Zhao Yilu replied bluntly before Fan Hua finished speaking.
Zhao Yilu still didn't understand why Fan Hua was so resistant to him that night. Sometimes he even had the illusion that Fan Hua was not resistant to him that night but to his brother He Siyan. But how could that be possible? She had never seen his brother!
So Zhao Yilu decided that since he had to take responsibility for her and marry her no matter what, there was no need to wait three years. It would be better to get married sooner rather than later and find out what Fan Hua was resisting. As for him taking his brother's place as an educated youth, he wanted to wait until they were more familiar with each other and understood Fan Hua better before telling her...
"Then how will you face your brother in the future?" Fan Hua asked.
"I have my own way, you don't have to worry about this problem!"
Fan Hua felt a little complicated at this moment, but she couldn't help but feel a little sweet.
She had to admit that she liked Zhao Yilu very much, no matter his figure, appearance, temperament or personality. If she had to find someone to marry in this strange world, she would choose Zhao Yilu!
But Fan Hua couldn't agree to Zhao Yilu right away, after all, she was pregnant!
Seeing that Fan Hua didn't answer, Zhao Yilu looked at his watch and stood up apologetically. "Lihua, it's time. I have to go back home. Please think about what I said just now. I mean it."
"Oh, you better hurry up and leave! Don't be late!"
Zhao Yilu nodded, stood up and walked out quickly. Before leaving, he did not forget to pay for today's meal.
Fan Hua saw him running after leaving the restaurant, and her heart felt both bitter and warm. This young man really squeezed out time to see her in a hurry!
No one has ever traveled thousands of miles just to see him like he did. It would be a lie to say that I am not touched!
Fan Hua returned home with a lot on her mind. She lay down on the bed and buried her head in the pillow, thinking about what Zhao Yilu had just said. Her mind was in a mess...
Geng Ailing came back and saw that no one was in the main room. She went to the bedroom to look for Fan Hua, "Has Comrade Zhao left?"
"Hmm!" Fan Hua responded listlessly.
"Shouldn't Comrade Zhao be training in the army? Why is he here?" Geng Ailing asked curiously.
"He came to Yangcheng to participate in the military exercises and came to see me on the way." Fan Hua said sullenly.
"Comrade Zhao is really capable. He can participate in the exercise after only fifteen months!" Geng Ailing couldn't help but sigh.
Fan Hua suddenly thought of something from these words...
Is it really what she thinks?
Fan Hua shook her head. It shouldn't be like that. After all, not everyone can get a spot in the exercise just by striving for it. This must all be a coincidence!
Geng Ailing was amused by Fan Hua scratching her hair, lost in thought, and shaking her head. She said with a smile, "Lihua, what's wrong with you? Why do you look like your soul has been taken away by Comrade Zhao's visit?"
Fan Hua was stunned. Didn’t he just take her soul away?
