Capítulo 945: Chapter 638: Jiang Wenyuan (Part 2)

“Chuxia married into a good family, but, they married Chuxia, not all her relatives. If I tell her the truth, she’ll definitely ask Regimental Commander Zhou for help, and I don’t want her to owe favors.”

“Sister, are you still mad at Zhou Mikang?” Chuxia couldn’t help but laugh, “Was it because he initially didn’t let you join the army that you’ve always felt uneasy about it?”

“No, I know he truly cares about you, but I just don’t want to rely on him for help…” Zhao Qihui pursed her lips, “Besides, even without help, I can still get into university. I don’t want people gossiping.”

A sudden thought flashed through Chuxia’s mind, but she quickly suppressed it. Some things just shouldn’t be said out loud, it would only make things awkward for everyone if they were.

The main door shut with a clatter, and Zhao Qihui leaned on the window to look outside. Her face instantly turned red: “Why is he here?”

Chuxia and Luo Xiaoqiong exchanged glances, quickly following her gaze outside, and saw a delicate-looking young man push a bicycle into the courtyard. Before the two could ask anything, Zhao Qihui had already slipped into her shoes and gone out.

“Thank goodness…” Luo Xiaoqiong let out a sigh of relief, “Turns out, she still likes this man. The way she was talking just now had me thinking she was into your Regimental Commander Zhou, scared me to death.”

Chuxia gave her a glare: “You shouldn’t say that stuff, even as a joke, you can’t say it. Sister Qihui is a very serious person; if she took it seriously, it would make things uncomfortable for everyone.”

“I know, I’m not dumb.” Luo Xiaoqiong rolled her eyes at her, curling up a bit: “No getting off this kang, or it’ll be hard to get back up. This way, I can observe my future brother-in-law up close.”

Zhao Qihui led Jiang Wenyuan to the east room to greet a group of elders, chatted for a while, and then returned with him to the west room.

Seeing Chuxia and Luo Xiaoqiong sitting cross-legged on the kang, Jiang Wenyuan paused for a moment, and Zhao Qihui quickly introduced: “This is my cousin Chuxia, and this is my future sister-in-law Luo Xiaoqiong, they are both military doctors.”

“Hello, Brother Jiang.”

“Hello, Brother Jiang.”

Chuxia and Luo Xiaoqiong greeted in succession.

Their greetings made Jiang Wenyuan’s smile stiffen slightly, but he then smiled warmly: “Hello, nice to meet you both.”

“Brother Jiang, how long is your winter break?” Chuxia asked.

“Twenty-eight days.”

“So lucky.” Luo Xiaoqiong looked envious, “I’m over the moon just getting a ten-day break; I can’t imagine how exciting a twenty-eight-day break would be.”

“Heh…” Jiang Wenyuan chuckled lightly, “Whether it’s ten days or twenty-eight days, they feel pretty similar. Personally, I prefer school life more; chatting with like-minded people makes time fly by.”

“Brother Jiang, do you write poetry?” Out of nowhere, Chuxia blurted out this question.

“I’ve joined a poetry club, but my personal talent in this area is average, I’m still learning…” Feeling he might have ignored Zhao Qihui, he then looked at her, “When you get to school, I’ll introduce you to the poetry club, and we can learn together.”

“Okay.” Zhao Qihui nodded, looking quite happy.

Jiang Wenyuan turned to Chuxia and Luo Xiaoqiong: “Are you two planning to apply to the military academy?”

Chuxia nodded: “I’m planning to.”

“That’s the way it should be. Young people should study more, otherwise, they’ll be left behind one day. Your sister is great in this way, she’s hardworking and ambitious.”

“Yes, my sister is very ambitious and brave. We were just talking about it; if it were anyone else, they’d happily take the second choice and go, but she chose to go through it all again.”

“I really admire that about her, daring to challenge herself. Such people can continually progress, and in this aspect, I must learn from your sister.”

“…”

After chatting for a while, Chuxia and Luo Xiaoqiong started feeling a bit bored.

Maybe someone like Jiang Wenyuan would appeal to some self-proclaimed highbrow students, but the two of them definitely couldn’t appreciate it; his words were all idealistic, but to live, one has to fulfill the small self to better achieve the greater self.

When you can’t fill your stomach or take care of your family, can you really get things done?

“Sister, you chat with Brother Jiang, we’re going out to get some exercise; sitting here too long is making our legs stiff.” As Chuxia spoke, she got off the kang, and Luo Xiaoqiong, who had long been restless, jumped off the kang with a thud as soon as she heard they could leave.

As Chuxia was putting on her shoes, she couldn’t help but close her eyes in exasperation, Sister, even if you’re in a hurry, is there really a need to scramble away like you’re escaping for your life?

Before the two could leave, Jiang Wenyuan had moved the books to the center of the kang, when he saw Zhao Qihui also wanted to get off, he frowned slightly: “Okay, let’s start studying.”

Bending down to tie their shoes, Chuxia and Luo Xiaoqiong exchanged a glance, both showing a face of helplessness.

“Do you think they’re suitable?” Out in the courtyard, Luo Xiaoqiong let out a long breath, looking at Chuxia, “I just can’t handle someone like that, it’s too dull.”

“It doesn’t matter if the two of us think they’re suitable or not; what matters is how my sister feels about it. Anyway, we’ve already given our reminders, saying more would be pointless.”

Luo Xiaoqiong nodded: “True, if it really works out for them, us gossiping might end up making enemies out of us, but why do I feel so uneasy about it?”

Chuxia chuckled, patting her on the head: “Look at you being all tangled, is it really that serious? Everyone likes different types; Sister Qihui is also very serious; what she likes will definitely be different from what we like, stop overthinking it, let’s go out for a walk.” (To be continued.
