"I... I told Yongliang that I still wanted to live here with you, but he disagreed... He even acted coquettishly and said that Nian Nian and he needed me too. I softened my heart and agreed to live with you until school started, and then I'll move in..."
"I'm sorry, Li Xi, if you don't want me to move out, I'll talk to him again! I won't move out!" Geng Ailing became more and more unhappy as she spoke.
"How could that be, Sister Ailing?"
Fan Xi stepped forward and took Geng Ailing's hand and continued, "Although I will feel a little uncomfortable if you move away, I've told you before that I am now your family. Although I may feel reluctant to let you go, I hope you can be happy!"
"Director Xie is a very good person. You should be very happy with him. We don't live too far away. You can come and stay with us anytime in the future! If Director Xie dares to bully you, I will be the first to disagree! No matter what, don't forget that you still have me, your family. I will support you..."
Before Fan Xi could finish her words, Geng Ailing hugged her and burst into tears. "Li Xi, do you know what I didn't understand at all before I met you? My blood family didn't care about me. They didn't care about how I lived or whether I was happy or not. They only cared about their so-called face and how much benefit I could bring to the family..."
"It wasn't until you started calling me Sister Ai Ling that I realized a true family member like you should be. Someone who would consider my feelings, be afraid of being bullied, and want to support me..."
"Even though you are younger than me, ever since I met you, I feel like I am no longer a poor person with no one around me. I have someone to rely on, and I have the confidence to live a normal life. In front of you, I can no longer be strong, I can be fragile, and I can cry freely..."
Geng Ailing wiped her tears and continued, "Wow, Li Qi, you don't know how happy I am that I met you that day before I went south. Otherwise... otherwise, I can't even imagine what I would be like now. I might not even be alive in this world!"
"I wouldn't have been able to get into a good university like I am now, and I would have met someone who loves me. You are the salvation of my life!"
"Thank you, Li Qi!"
Geng Ailing was already sobbing uncontrollably. She hugged Fan Xi tightly, choking with sobs as she spoke the words that had been pent up in her heart for a long time...
Fan Xi gently patted Geng Ailing, who was already crying her heart out. "Sister Ailing, Yuanyuan and Xiaoxiao are watching us right here. What if they start crying like you? Be good, stop crying. We're going to get the marriage certificate tomorrow, and we need to look beautiful!"
Geng Ailing sniffed before continuing, "Li Yi, I'll ask Yongliang first to see if he has any way to transfer Zhao Yilu to Yangcheng. Zhao Yilu is now a platoon leader, and he'll be promoted to company commander after a while. Then you can join the army. Otherwise, I'm really worried about you if I move away!"
Aunt Chu, who had been sitting by the bed and had already secretly wiped away a few tears of emotion, immediately said, "Ailing, don't worry about moving over! I'm here to take care of you, and there are also Su Wen and Zhang Yuan next door. Don't worry!"
Seeing Geng Ailing crying with tears and snot streaming down her face, Fan Xi immediately changed the subject and said, "Sister Ailing, you just said that Director Xie's family is not simple. How is it simple? Tell us!"
Geng Ailing perked up immediately when she mentioned this. She sighed and said, "I always thought Yongliang's family background was good, but I never thought he would be so stupid!"
"It was only after I followed Yongliang to Beijing this time that I learned that Yongliang's grandfather, Xie Baoguo, was once the political commissar of a division-level unit, his father-in-law, Xie Mingxuan, is now the head of the Discipline Inspection Department, his great-uncle, Xie Minghui, is now the head of a military region in Beijing, and even his cousin, Xie Yuchuan, is in politics in Beijing. His cousin, Xie Yuting, is studying at the Military Medical University and will be assigned directly to the military region hospital after graduation..."
"Wait...wait, Sister Ailing, who are you talking about? What's Director Xie's cousin talking about?"
"Xie Yuting, if I remember correctly, that's her name! I heard she was only twenty years old this year, and she was admitted to Beijing Military Medical University the first year the college entrance examination was resumed. She should be assigned a job in two years!"
Fan Xi was so shocked that he was completely speechless. Was Geng Ailing the cousin-in-law of the heroine of the original book?
She clearly remembered that the original book didn't mention Xie Yongliang...
Hey...wait a minute!
Fan Xi suddenly remembered that in the original book, before Xie Yuting and He Siyan got married, Xie Yuting asked He Siyan to accompany her to the post office to pick up a package.
