Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander

Chapter 1724: Chapter 1131: Seeking Help

Chapter One.

---------

The fact that she comes from another parallel universe is something she can never tell Lin Baohe and Zhao Yulan. No matter how immature Chuxia might have been in the past, she was their beloved daughter. If they knew that the soul residing in their daughter’s body now was someone else, they would be heartbroken.

Even if she told them that their real daughter was living happily in her universe and had grown much more sensible, they wouldn’t believe it. They would think she’s just comforting them.

Thus, aside from Zhou Mikang, this matter will forever remain a secret to others.

This also means she can’t reveal her true intention to go to the front lines, and her choice is tinged with a bit of impulsiveness.

Initially, she thought it would be tough to get past her parents, but now it seems her father is surprisingly open-minded. His worry and unwillingness are evident, as is his struggle, but he is willing to let her go.

As for her mother, although she still can’t understand why she’s making such a decision, since her father agreed, her mother’s approval will eventually follow.

In this household, most of the time Zhao Yulan makes the decisions, but if Lin Baohe is sure about something, Zhao Yulan always supports him. So, her parents’ side is basically settled.

"Dad, Mom, you have to trust me. I care about you, care about Nannan and Beibei, care about Grandma and Grandpa, my in-laws, everyone in the family. How could I possibly let anything happen to me?

I don’t want to lie to you either. Zhao Bingbing and her grandmother specifically came to meet me and visit us today for a reason..." With that, Chuxia truthfully told her parents about Zhao Bingbing’s boyfriend being stolen, and her worries.

This is not the time to talk about patriotism with outsiders. Saying too much would only make her parents more anxious, so she couldn’t mention the actual reasons. Instead, this reason became the most convincing one.

Zhao Yulan and Lin Baohe both understood her feelings for Zhou Mikang. Now that there’s an invisible bomb beside their son-in-law, it’s normal for their daughter to be worried.

"Alright, Mom agrees too. But you must remember your promise: come back safe and sound, without a scratch. Otherwise, Mom will never trust you again!"

"Alright!" Chuxia happily hugged Zhao Yulan. "I knew Mom would definitely agree. Dad and Mom are the most open-minded parents in the world. I’m truly blessed!"

"Agreeing with you means open-mindedness; disagreeing means being old-fashioned?" Zhao Yulan glaringly retorted to her daughter. "Don’t be too happy too soon. Although your father and I are letting you go, will your husband’s side agree?

With your current medical skills, you’re just like a beginner. You won’t be of much help, and you can’t tell them you suspect another woman is trying to steal your husband. Let’s see if they’ll agree—it seems uncertain."

"I know it’s hard to convince them, so I spoke to Dad and Mom first. I need your support to gain confidence..." With a brief pause, Chuxia smiled, "As for them, I should let Zhou Mikang convince them. I’ll just wait for the result."

"That’s a good plan!" Lin Baohe nodded in agreement. "Chuxia, do that. Tell Xiaomi you want to go over, and let Zhou family handle it on his behalf. If he suggests it instead of you asking, it really makes a difference."

"Exactly, when he calls, I’ll tell him."

All calls from Zhou Mikang are classified, so it’s impossible for Chuxia to call him. All she can do now is wait, and as for the deadline for expanding the medical team, she asked about it—there are still twenty days left, so she’ll hardly miss it.

It was only the next night that Zhou Mikang called, sounding utterly exhausted: "Chuxia, what’s urgent?"

"Did you just return from a mission?" Chuxia’s heart couldn’t help but ache slightly. With him so busy and in such danger, how could she bring up Zhao Weiwei’s matter?

"Yeah." Zhou Mikang replied with a single syllable and continued his inquiry, "What happened?"

"Nothing really, I just wanted to ask your opinion. I want to come to your side..." Pausing, Chuxia explained, "I want to join the medical team. I want to stay by your side, accompany you at this time. Nannan and Beibei are fine without me now."

The other end of the phone fell silent for a while, before asking, "Why suddenly have this idea?"

"I miss you." Unable to say anything else, Chuxia resorted to acting coy.

A happy chuckle emanated from the other end of the phone, followed by a momentary pause before Zhou Mikang continued, "Just because of that?"

"Yes."

"Then don’t come over. It’s no fun here, Chuxia. Unless you’re exceptionally skilled or your medical skills are exceptionally good, I wouldn’t stop you from coming.

You know what the situation is like now. If you come over but can’t do much, the impact won’t be good. If you are asked to handle things, I just can’t be at ease.

Listen, stay at home and wait. At most, a few months, I’ll be back. I really miss you too, so much that I wish we could meet right now. But I can’t be selfish like that. You should keep studying at home, take good care of yourself, and I’ll be especially motivated, okay?"

"Not okay." Chuxia immediately objected. "I’ve discussed with Dad and Mom, and they’ve agreed for me to come find you. Zhou Mikang, we’ve been separated for over a year. If you don’t let me come, I might consider someone else."

With a gentle laugh, Zhou Mikang replied, "If you dare develop feelings for someone else, when I return, I’ll beat that man till he’s crippled, then snatch you back, spanking you into submission!"

"Ugh, I’m serious, and you’re treating it as a joke. You can’t be like this..." Frustrated, Chuxia stomped her foot. "Don’t forget, besides my skills in fighting and medicine, I have other unique skills that others don’t. I can surely assist you."

"You’ve told me all about those, and you know I understand them well. Rest assured, I’ve got a good grasp of things. If you don’t believe me, should I relay all that’s been said before back to you?

Moreover, thanks to what you shared with me, I pre-arranged several battles, winning them without losing a single soldier. Chuxia, you’re my lucky star. I can’t bear to let you take even a slight risk, so let’s drop the subject."

"Zhou Mikang, you can’t be so domineering. I’m your wife, so at times like these, I should set an example. If others can go, why not me?

Besides, I’m not going to the front lines to fight; I’d basically be in safe areas where we could meet every few days. How great would that be? After we got married, we haven’t had much time together, and continuing like this will alienate us.

What’s more, Ye Meiru is there too, and I don’t feel secure. I must come over and be with you. I won’t let you fall for any traps from her or other women who might covet you. I refuse to let down my guard.

In any case, if you don’t let me come, it means you’re hiding something and fear I’ll expose you. To avoid leaving me in a state of constant suspicion, you should agree and inform our elders at home. With you guaranteeing my safety, they’d surely feel reassured."

"Oh you..." On the other end, Zhou Mikang felt truly helpless. He knew his little wife’s temperament well. Even though he clearly stated his point, she was still adamant, which meant she’d already made up her mind.

If he didn’t agree, she’d probably find her way there anyway. Instead of letting her create conflicts among their family, he might as well help her.

Once she arrived, he’d ensure she was closely monitored, and prevented from venturing into dangerous areas. Even if it smacked of favoritism, so be it.

The notion that he was worried about being judged by others was merely a ruse to stop her. In reality, was he concerned about others’ opinions? Over this past year, his accomplishments were substantial enough to silence anyone.

Moreover, his wife had played a major part in his success.

Having not seen her for a year, he desperately missed her. If he didn’t have photos of her and the kids with him, he couldn’t guarantee he wouldn’t sneak home midway.

Previously, he thought acts of recklessness for love were brainless. Now that it was happening to him, he realized that loving someone deeply could lead to unimaginable actions.

"Have you agreed?" Seeing Zhou Mikang silent for quite some time, Chuxia smiled and pressed further, "I knew you wouldn’t stop me."

"Alright, you’ve said all there is. What more can I say?" Zhou Mikang sighed, "Don’t rush. I’ll slowly convince the elders. Their opposition isn’t due to anything else but concerns for your safety. So even if they scold you, don’t be upset, okay?"

"Certainly." Though Zhou Mikang couldn’t see it, Chuxia still nodded vigorously. "Of course I won’t be mad. They’re worried out of care for me. Otherwise, hearing I’m going to take care of you, wouldn’t they happily agree? I’m someone who knows the difference between right and wrong, don’t worry, okay?"

"You, you know everything yet still don’t heed..." After thinking it over, Zhou Mikang added, "When you come over, bring photos of Nannan and Beibei so I can see. Also, take some for Longlong and Huhu, so Hanliang and Qiliang can see what their kids look like."

"Okay." She agreed verbally, though inside she felt overwhelmed with emotions. Thus, it’s true that those in military service are indeed adorable—months have passed, yet they haven’t seen their children’s faces... (To be continued.
