When she woke up, only ten hours had passed according to the time in the space, but Qiao Manman was full of energy like a newborn.
I stretched and got out of bed, went to the bathroom to take care of myself, changed into loose pajamas, and went for a walk in the garden.
Daisies, bellflowers, red roses, and other unnamed flowers and plants create a beautiful and tranquil scene.
Qiao Manman found a swing and sat down. On the table next to her were steaming hot fruit tea and crispy, sweet cookies.
Everything is perfect, except that I feel a little lonely.
Qiao Manman raised her hand to drink the tea, and the sweet and sour taste instantly captivated her taste buds.
"Master, how many merit points do I have now?"
"Reporting to the host, there are over three thousand!"
Have you been watching any period dramas set in the Qing Dynasty lately?
"Host, how did you know?"
Qiao Manman suppressed a laugh: "You speak with such a servile accent!"
"Is it the old servant who made a dazzling entrance with a loud bang in the sky?"
"Yes, yes, you know a lot!"
She couldn't hold back her laughter any longer; Qiao Manman laughed so hard she almost fell over in the garden.
After resting for a while, I checked in through the system and then went to the lab to do experiments.
Meanwhile, Lu Yuan stayed in the leader's office until midnight before leaving, looking exhausted.
The words echoed in my mind: "Commander Chen may be demobilized due to his wife's actions!"
Feeling depressed.
I can't help but wonder, if Meng Peiyu hadn't changed her mind and had chosen to go on a blind date with him, would he have accepted her? Would he have been implicated and even been unable to join the army?
He didn't know, and didn't want to ask Qiao Manman.
He pleaded with his superiors on behalf of Chen Junyan, but they only said they would consider it.
The military region has been in turmoil lately. First came the former deputy brigade commander, and now Chen Junyan has been implicated.
Everything has fallen away from the key figure, Meng Peiyu.
As I was thinking, I looked up at the starry sky.
Stars twinkled against the black backdrop, and Lu Yuan suddenly felt incredibly lucky to have met the love of his life in the Qingshan Brigade.
The start may not have been perfect, but the result was good.
Back at the family compound, as I passed the small bungalow, I saw Chen Junyan sitting on the steps, looking dejected.
He paused for a moment, then went home to get a small bottle of wine and some peanuts to keep him company.
"You don't need to pity me!" Chen Junyan forced a smile, which looked worse than a grimace.
"I don't sympathize with you at all! I just got back and have a two-day holiday. My wife isn't here, so I came here to find some freedom." Lu Yuan said, popping a peanut into his mouth.
"I think you're here to show off!" Chen Junyan turned his head, staring intently at Lu Yuan: "You're so lucky!"
Lu Yuan admitted: "Indeed, he came from a good family, didn't suffer much hardship growing up, and even married a good wife when he grew up."
So what? Shouldn't it be like that?
My grandfather and father, both big and small, emerged from the hail of bullets, suffering countless injuries.
My mother was immersed in books from a young age, and she didn't even relax during her wedding and postpartum period. After giving birth to me, she didn't give up her work and continued to work on the front lines.
I grew up in a large compound, which seemed glamorous, but I also bore the pressure from my parents. The studying and training never stopped.
At this point, a faint smile appeared on his lips: "The luckiest moment was when I went on a mission to the Qingshan Brigade and met Manman."
She is warm, generous, and has a heart for the world. I have never met a girl as lovely and lively as her.
"Speaking of which, you were originally supposed to go on that mission. I don't know what happened, but I ended up going instead."
Chen Junyan dug his nails into his palm: "Whether we are destined to be together or not, it's all arranged by God. Let's not think about the past."
"Yes, look ahead. With your abilities, you'll shine wherever you go. As Manman said, everyone has their own unique talents!"
"you're right!"
Chen Junyan poured himself a cup of wine and raised his hand to toast Lu Yuan: "If it weren't for Pei Yu, we would probably have become very good friends!"
Lu Yuan was displeased with these words: "What, am I not a friend enough to drink and have a heart-to-heart talk with you?"
Chen Junyan chuckled and punched his shoulder: "If there's an afterlife..."
Lu Yuan interrupted, "You haven't even figured out how to live this life yet, what are you talking about for the next? I think you're just being pretentious!"
He lay down and looked at the starry sky, thinking of Qiao Manman.
Chen Junyan, too, remained silent, his worries dissipating considerably.
Lu Yuan got home close to midnight. He tidied up a bit and went to bed to rest.
The nights in Northeast China are very cool. Thinking of Qiao Manman, his heart burned with desire.
A person lies awake, tossing and turning in bed. The few hours that have passed feel like torture.
The next day, Lu Yuan got up and washed the sheets and underwear before picking up Qiao Manman.
Along the way, it felt like riding a whirlwind, the speed was incredibly fast, and I didn't feel tired at all.
When we arrived at the guesthouse, my wife was still in bed. We waited at the front desk for a while before we heard noises coming from the hallway.
Upon closer inspection, it was Qiao Manman.
Smiles bloomed on both of their faces at the same time. Lu Yuan went into the house to help her unpack her luggage, and Qiao Manman took out breakfast from her spatial storage and shared it with him.
By the time we checked out, it was almost noon.
I went to a state-run restaurant and ordered a braised pork and a braised fish. Then I went to the post office to call my parents and in-laws.
Knowing that Qiao Runming and He Nian are doing well and that their two babies are growing up healthily, Qiao Manman smiled warmly.
Despite being reprimanded for her recklessness by Lu Qihua, Lu Jingchuan, and Xie Susu, Qiao Manman was not angry. She humbly accepted the reprimands, shamelessly flattering Lu Yuan and speaking well of him.
"Grandpa (Dad, Mom), it was my initiative to go and help, it has nothing to do with Lu Yuan."
Besides, I didn't go to the front lines; I just helped out with the medical team.
"You, you just know how to speak up for him!"
Qiao Manman smiled and praised Lu Yuan enthusiastically over the phone, making Lu Yuan blush.
"Honey, there are so many people here!" People picking up packages, mailing letters, and even office workers were all listening intently to the gossip.
I think this couple is really interesting.
Qiao Manman coughed lightly, "Dad, Mom, I'm hanging up now. I'll come back to see you when I have time!"
"Okay, okay, take good care of yourself, eat more and sleep more!"
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yuan went to pay the bill. It came to thirteen yuan, which was no small sum.
The two pretended to be in pain as they took out their money and left.
They found a secluded corner on the road, took out a bunch of food, and went to the hospital to visit Qiao Lingyue and Tao Yingzhen.
Upon meeting, Tao Yingzhen grabbed Qiao Manman's hand and cried, "You little rascal, how could you go to such a dangerous place..."
It took Qiao Manman a while to calm her grandmother down.
After talking with her for a while, and leaving Lu Yuan behind to tend the small vegetable garden, I finally found an opportunity to go to the "fertility clinic".
The place was packed with people, with several layers of people surrounding it from the outside in.
Just as Qiao Manman was about to walk around the crowd towards the examination room, she was stopped by an older woman: "Young lady, what are you doing? Go to the back of the line!"
Qiao Manman explained, "The one inside who's seeing a doctor is my grandfather!"
"Grandpa won't do it either, who knows if it's true or not. Go to the back of the line!"
Others chimed in: "That's right, everyone's been queuing for days, we can't let you get there first!"
"Little girl, you're so young, you probably don't need fertility pills!"
