At the same time, he was glad he made this trip, or else he wouldn’t have known the girl was being bullied at work.

Thinking about the way that woman spoke just now, if he wasn’t mistaken, wasn’t she once Gu Lingling’s roommate in the dorm?

Yang Yunhai stroked his chin, feeling it was necessary to investigate that woman thoroughly.

And what about Fu Runze? He promised to look after her. How’s he handling things?

While silently packing up his things to leave work, Fu Runze suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

This feeling usually meant something bad was about to happen.

A single ’I miss you’ made Gu Lingling’s heart instantly soften.

"And you?" Yang Yunhai asked her.

"Hmm." Gu Lingling glanced outside, avoiding his gaze.

But Yang Yunhai wasn’t planning to let her off that easily, "Hmm what? Do you miss me or not?"

This guy.

Clearly knew everything but still wanted her to say it out loud.

"Brother Yang, I miss you a lot too," Gu Lingling turned her head to face him, blushing as she spoke.

She hadn’t felt this way before, but recently he took some time off, and the time they spent together was more than ever before. Suddenly being apart felt a bit hard to adjust to.

Moreover, being separated for so long this time, she couldn’t even reach him when she wanted to.

Because of this, Gu Lingling truly felt how tough it is to be a military wife.

Seeing her like this, Yang Yunhai felt a pang in his heart.

He didn’t dare to tell her that he was just passing through the Capital City, and could stay only until tomorrow night at the latest.

Forget it, he’d tell her later in the evening.

"What do you want for lunch?" Gu Lingling asked him, "I got my paycheck, it’s on me."

She had just gotten her salary a few days ago.

Now, she was someone with an income.

"Anything’s fine," Yang Yunhai said.

The main thing was to be with her.

"In the afternoon, can you take off?" After thinking for a while, he couldn’t help but say.

"I can." Gu Lingling didn’t ask why and directly said, "I’ve worked overtime several times, so I can take time off."

"And tomorrow?" Yang Yunhai asked her.

Tomorrow?

Gu Lingling nodded without even thinking.

The two of them didn’t talk about this topic anymore.

Gu Lingling also knew that he might have to leave tomorrow.

Not asking anything, taking things as they come.

Her understanding was heart-wrenching.

If he weren’t driving, Yang Yunhai would love to just pull her into his arms and kiss her thoroughly.

"Brother Yang, I’m fine," Gu Lingling knew what he was thinking from his expression. She took his right hand, placed it on her face, and said with a smile, "Actually, it’s quite nice like this. Isn’t there a saying... absence..."

Absence makes the heart grow fonder?

But they weren’t even married.

Uh... it didn’t seem right to say that either.

Gu Lingling’s face blushed again.

Yang Yunhai laughed heartily.

"Yes, absence makes the heart grow fonder."

Gu Lingling gave him a sideways glance.

The smile on Yang Yunhai’s face grew even bigger.

The restaurant was near Gu Lingling’s workplace, a dumpling restaurant, and their dumplings were delicious.

Gu Lingling ordered a plate of lamb dumplings for Yang Yunhai and a portion of sour soup dumplings for herself.

It was lunchtime, the business was quite good here and there were quite a few people. The two of them found a spot in the corner to sit.

Just as they finished ordering, someone pushed the door and walked in.

It was Yang Yunfeng.

And standing next to him was Fang Yujiao, Shen Lingyu’s best friend, whom they had met on Peach Blossom Island.

Looking at the two of them, they seemed quite close.

Gu Lingling felt like she had stumbled on something unexpected.
