Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander

Chapter 1719: Chapter 1129: Discussion

Thinking it over carefully, Chuxia felt there was some truth in Zhao Bingbing’s words, and Zhao Bingbing’s face scrunched up: "Don’t mind me talking about downer stuff, I just feel that if you wait until you persuade all the elders, the flowers will have wilted."

"Then I won’t go..." Chuxia looked at Zhao Bingbing seriously, "To me, every family member is important, I can’t just abandon everything for some baseless guess.

Of course, my desire to go on missions together isn’t solely for personal feelings, but honestly, those feelings dominate, so I must think carefully. My concerns now, you should understand once you’re married."

"I think I can understand, just worried for you..." Zhao Bingbing sighed and smiled bitterly, "Or maybe, because I’m very familiar with the pain of loss, that’s why I’m like this."

Chuxia scrutinized her and asked, "Does it still hurt now?"

"Occasionally."

"Then you’re in a dangerous situation..." Chuxia reached out and patted her shoulder, "You need to adjust yourself well. Even though you said you wouldn’t reconcile if Lang Yi approaches again, don’t mind if I doubt you, considering your mindset now, you might change your mind, who knows."

"I know I haven’t completely let go of him, but I also understand clearly that I truly can’t be with him. Even if I lose control, my family wouldn’t allow me to do so.

See, my grandma is very supportive and fond of me, but when it comes to matters of principle, she won’t be polite. My parents too, they’d find every way to stop me.

So..." Zhao Bingbing smiled shyly, "I’m truly not worried about being deceived by him again, I care about family, and I already understand the reasoning. When the time comes, I won’t abandon everything."

Chuxia looked at her speechlessly, realizing her confidence was built on her family’s persuasion. In other words, she was very aware that if Lang Yi turned back, she would certainly turn back too...

Regarding Zhao Bingbing’s logic, Chuxia found herself speechless while also understanding Zhao Bingbing’s insistence on going to the front line, merely to compete with Zhao Weiwei.

But does this competition have any meaning?

For the time being, regardless of its meaning, Zhao Bingbing would persist, and one day when she meets a woman who truly appreciates her, she’d realize more clearly what she needs, right?

"But you can’t tell anyone about my thoughts..." Zhao Bingbing pleaded with a blush, "If others knew I thought this way, who knows how they’d see me."

"Do I look like an idiot? Do you think I need reminders for this sort of thing?" Chuxia angrily pushed her, "I’m really defeated by you, do you even trust me or not?"

"Hehe..." Zhao Bingbing chuckled awkwardly, "Of course I trust you, just worried you might slip up and spill the beans, that’s all... hehe."

"How could such a thing slip?!" Chuxia glared angrily, and asked, "Right, did all the elders agree for you to go to the front line?"

"My mom and my grandparents agreed, but my dad and brother disagree..." Zhao Bingbing shrugged helplessly, "I’ve no choice, since I was little my dad and brother were strict with me, saying with my current skills I’d only be a burden if I go, better to stay put at school.

Actually, they’re worried about my safety, both of them are harsh on the outside but soft inside, they say sharp words but their hearts are soft like tofu. They think I don’t understand their intentions, but I understand them better than they do."

"Is your brother a soldier too?" Chuxia asked.

"Yeah, my dad and brother are both soldiers, otherwise, why are they so rigid?" Checking around to see everyone was preoccupied with their own conversations, Zhao Bingbing lowered her voice, "They always urge others to be more aware, why is their own awareness so low? Humph..."

Chuxia: "..." The saying ’kind intentions misunderstood’ seems apt here, huh? Though I didn’t grow up in this environment, from my perspective, those who truly don’t care about their children’s lives and solely focus on the greater good aren’t as prevalent as portrayed in movies and TV.

Everyone harbors some selfishness; if true necessity arises, most wouldn’t stop their children from serving the country. If one more or less wouldn’t make a difference, or possibly become a burden, it is indeed necessary to hold back."

Of course, she wouldn’t say this to Zhao Bingbing. With her current mindset, hearing this would probably anger her to no end, maybe even end the friendship.

...

Early the next morning, before Zheng Sanqiao could find an excuse, Chuxia had Uncle Wang take her to the train station, "Yueyue, see your mother off." Left with no choice, Zheng Sanqiao looked to her daughter for help, "Your mother is still a bit scared alone."

"What’s there to be scared of?" Lin Chuyue frowned at her, "Uncle Wang is taking you to the station, your ticket is already bought, just get on and off the train. There are so many people, what’s to be scared of?

"Don’t give me any crap about not knowing the way, being afraid of missing your stop or getting on the wrong bus. You managed it all by yourself coming here, so it’s even less likely you’ll mess up going back."

Indeed, this was exactly the reason Zheng Sanqiao had planned to use, but Lin Chuyue blocked that path completely. Her face turned bright red, her mouth opened and closed a few times, and finally, she obediently got on the bus.

She realized that Chuxia’s family disliked her, her daughter was annoyed by her, and if she kept pushing, she might end up with nothing. All in all, coming here was still worth it for her.

First of all, she confirmed she wouldn’t have to go to jail.

Secondly, she got a bit of pocket money.

And she spent a night at Lin Baohe’s house, witnessing first-hand the true situation of Chuxia’s family, which gave her enough material to brag about when she got back!

As for whether she could continue to benefit in the future, that was a problem for later. Why worry about it now?

That’s Zheng Sanqiao for you, absolutely selfish, and just as Lin Chuyue said, she’s a bully to the weak and fears the strong. If you really stand up to her, she becomes well-behaved, otherwise, she’ll just continue her unreasonable antics.

Two days later, Lin Chuyue also set off for home. Actually, the extra day had made her anxious and jittery, as she was worried Zheng Sanqiao might stir up more trouble upon returning, causing trouble for her older brother.

...

"What did you say?" Zhao Yulan looked at her daughter in disbelief, "Did I hear that right?"

"You heard me right, I really want to go find Zhou Mikang, see how he’s doing now, and it would also be a real opportunity for me to improve myself, which would be beneficial for my future development.

Dad, Mom, opportunities like this don’t come around often, and of course, we don’t wish for them to. Once this is over, it might be a long time before another comes along.

You’ve always hoped I could make something of myself, now that I’ve made this decision, you should support me, right?" Chuxia said, playfully hugging Zhao Yulan’s arm and shaking it, "Mom, you and Dad have always cared for me so much, just indulge me this once, please?"

"No." Without even thinking, Zhao Yulan denied her daughter’s plan, "You have two kids now; you can’t just irresponsibly leave them.

If Xiaomi were completely safe over there, I wouldn’t have any objections, but knowing he’s in a place full of real danger, how can your dad and I be at ease?

Your going there wouldn’t be helping Xiaomi; it would be adding to his trouble, do you understand?" She said, looking at her husband, "Baohe, you agree with me, don’t you?"

After a long silence, Lin Baohe frowned as he looked at his daughter, "Xia, you understand how dangerous it is at the front, right?"

"I understand, but I’m just going to be an assistant, staying in the rear tents to care for the wounded or something similar, it won’t be dangerous. Dad, you agree with my approach, don’t you?"

"Dad doesn’t want to agree, nor do I want you to take this risk," Lin Baohe paused for a long time before continuing, "But, you’re grown now, you have your own ideas about things, and you’re not the type to act impulsively. Dad believes that your decision is well thought out.

Children grow up; they must go out and explore, they must have their own lives. Your mom and I can’t make decisions for you as easily as before, so what Dad wants to say is, if you believe that this choice is really important for you, then I won’t object.

But, Dad needs you to think about a few things before you go. If something happens to you, your mom and I would be devastated. Nannan and Beibei have their grandparents, great-grandparents, their dad, but for your mom and me, you’re the only one."

"For your mom and me, you’re the only one." This sentence made Chuxia’s nose tingle, and tears involuntarily rolled down her face. She looked intently at her parents, "Dad, Mom, don’t worry, I cherish my life. I haven’t even begun to enjoy the good life yet; how could I bear for anything to happen to me?

I’m not someone who doesn’t know my limits, nor am I highly skilled in medicine, or super fit. I certainly won’t rush to do something I’m not capable of.

The decision I made isn’t out of recklessness; I know that some people are eyeing Zhou Mikang like a hawk. I also believe he’s not a fool, but still, I want to be by his side to watch out. He’s Nannan and Beibei’s dad, and I don’t want any discord in our marriage.

Furthermore, this is indeed an opportunity for me. I hope one day I’ll be able to take care of you on my own and make Nannan and Beibei proud of me, so I have to work even harder.

Moreover, I’ve been collecting data from over there. Once there, I should be able to help Zhou Mikang and not be a burden to him. Dad, Mom, I need your support!" (To be continued.
