Hello, Comrade. I'm Here to Marry You!

Gu Qingran stood at the entrance, frowning at the stern military base gate.

’I have to find another way to get close to Xie Huaizhen.’

But the entire military base was so large, and the surrounding area was vast. Finding Xie Huaizhen would be incredibly difficult.

The younger version of Xie Huaizhen, at that.

’I wonder how similar the Xie Huaizhen of this era is to the man he’ll become?’

In truth, Gu Qingran felt the best way to find Xie Huaizhen was to stake out Su Zhaozhao.

Since Su Zhaozhao had come here to marry Xie Huaizhen and had been here for so long, their relationship must have progressed by leaps and bounds.

She had missed the perfect opportunity. She couldn’t help but sigh. ’If only I’d been reborn earlier, I could have found Xie Huaizhen before Su Zhaozhao did.’

But it wasn’t too late. Su Zhaozhao would definitely be going on dates with Xie Huaizhen now.

When the time came, all she had to do was find Xie Huaizhen and tell him everything.

She would not allow the man she idolized to fall into the hands of a wicked woman.

Su Zhaozhao slept until a knock on the door from Xie Huaizheng woke her.

She got up to open it. The moment Su Zhaozhao saw Xie Huaizheng, he reached out and pulled her into his arms.

"I missed you so much," Xie Huaizheng said.

Hearing his words, Su Zhaozhao couldn’t help but laugh in his embrace.

"We’ve only been apart for a few hours, and you’re already saying things like that."

Xie Huaizheng pecked her on the lips.

"Half a day apart feels like three autumns," he said in a low voice.

Su Zhaozhao had no idea that he had been thinking about her from the very moment they separated.

Whenever he had a free moment, her face would involuntarily appear in his mind. He wished he could carry her in his pocket at all times.

He never used to understand why couples were so clingy. If he were in a relationship, he would never be like them.

’Women? How could they be more important than a career?’

Plenty of women had pursued him, but Xie Huaizheng found them all uninteresting.

That’s why he had remained single all these years. Even when his family arranged blind dates, Xie Huaizheng would scare the girls away with his fierce demeanor.

He had been just as fierce with Su Zhaozhao at first, but she had shamelessly kept getting close to him. No matter what he said, she just refused to leave.

And then, Xie Huaizheng suddenly felt like he was eating his words.

Someone who’s never been in love could never truly understand its sweet tenderness.

At this thought, Xie Huaizheng pinched Su Zhaozhao’s cheek. "Zhaozhao, come on, let’s go eat."

The three of them went downstairs, with Su Zhaozhao holding onto Xie Huaizheng’s arm.

Huang Jiqin stood beside Su Zhaozhao, and the trio chatted as they walked.

Gu Qingran was huddled in a corner, watching Su Zhaozhao flanked by an older woman and a tall, handsome man.

She was even holding the hand of the man next to her.

The man was also pressed closely against Su Zhaozhao.

His tall frame and her petite body were nestled together, looking so intimate.

’But wait, something’s not right!’

’This man isn’t Xie Huaizhen!’

Even though she didn’t really know what Xie Huaizhen looked like when he was young, she could tell from his later appearance that he definitely hadn’t looked like this man.

Besides, this man had a roguish air and a hostile aura, with an unapproachable "stay away" vibe.

This was definitely not the kind of temperament a gentle and reserved man like Xie Huaizhen would have.

’Didn’t Su Zhaozhao come here to find Xie Huaizhen?’

’Then who is this man?’

Gu Qingran stared intently at their departing figures, her heart pounding wildly. She felt like she had just discovered a shocking secret.

’Su Zhaozhao is cheating on Xie Huaizhen!’

Her body trembled uncontrollably at the discovery of this hidden secret.

She almost screamed out loud.

She quickly clapped a hand over her mouth to stop herself from actually screaming.

’This is an earth-shattering secret! How could Su Zhaozhao dare?’

’She’s so bold! Isn’t she afraid of going to jail for this?’

’No, I have to find Xie Huaizhen and tell him about this.’

At this thought, Gu Qingran suddenly became incredibly excited. A moment ago, she had thought all hope was lost.

After all, unlike in her past life, Su Zhaozhao hadn’t broken off the engagement and had even come here to marry Xie Huaizhen.

But now, hope was rekindled. ’Xie Huaizhen would never be with a cheating woman like her.’

At that moment, Su Zhaozhao had no idea that someone was staring at them.

Xie Huaizheng, however, glanced back out of the corner of his eye before looking away again.

They went to the military base’s cafeteria to eat.

Huang Jiqin was also a little curious.

She had been here before, but that was a long time ago.

She had eaten in the base cafeteria back then, too.

Later, Xie Huaizheng became unwilling to let her visit, and Huang Jiqin couldn’t be bothered to come either. Traveling such a long way by herself was nerve-wracking.

This time, she had only come because she wanted to meet Su Zhaozhao.

The base cafeteria was a bit better than it had been a few years ago, and the food had improved quite a bit.

Huang Jiqin looked at the meal in her mess tin and was very satisfied. "Mm, this is pretty good. The meat is actual meat, and the vegetables are actual vegetables. They’re not stingy with the oil and salt, and these soy-braised ribs are so fragrant!"

"Mom, you have such a way with words. What a brilliant description," Xie Huaizheng said, giving Huang Jiqin a thumbs-up, his tone laced with sarcasm.

Huang Jiqin huffed and turned to Su Zhaozhao. "Zhaozhao, look at him. You’ll have to teach him not to be so disrespectful to his elders."

Hearing his mother’s words, Xie Huaizheng’s mocking smile froze. He reached out, grabbed Su Zhaozhao’s hand, and looked at her nervously. "Don’t listen to my mom’s nonsense. This is just how we interact."

Seeing how anxious Xie Huaizheng was about Su Zhaozhao’s opinion, Huang Jiqin felt both happy and sad.

She was happy that this little rascal had finally seen the light when it came to love, but sad that he was so good to Su Zhaozhao while treating his own mother this way.

Huang Jiqin felt a pang of sadness.

’Oh well,’ she thought. As long as someone could keep Xie Huaizheng in line, she would be eternally grateful. She wouldn’t have to worry about him getting into trouble anymore.

After dinner, Huang Jiqin headed back first, leaving the two young people to have some time alone.

Su Zhaozhao and Xie Huaizheng went for another walk. Su Zhaozhao said to him, "I heard that you used to get into fights every day and were so unruly that you were sent here."

"Did my mom tell you that?" Xie Huaizheng scoffed. ’Of course she’d spill all my embarrassing stories from the past.’

It was true that he used to be quite belligerent. He’d fight anyone who rubbed him the wrong way, and no one around could beat him.

"I was just curious. I want to know about your past so I can understand you better. But I believe you wouldn’t just hit people for no reason. It must have been because they deserved it."

Xie Huaizheng couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. "You trust me that much?"

But he couldn’t help tightening his grip on Su Zhaozhao’s hand.

The girl’s eyes curved into crescents, sparkling brightly. "Of course! You’re my husband, after all. My judgment of character is never wrong."

From the moment she saw him on the train, Su Zhaozhao knew he was a good person—cold on the outside, but warm on the inside.

When he tried to send her away at first, it wasn’t because he was heartless, but because he knew this place was unsuitable for a delicate girl like her.

Life here would be very hard for her.

’How could a person like that have just gone around beating people up in the past?’

The word "husband," which had just slipped from Su Zhaozhao’s lips, made Xie Huaizheng freeze. His heart skipped a beat, and he found himself holding his breath.
