Qi Taiguo was on the plane at this mont, feeling sowhat annoyed as well. The mission had co so urgently that he had set off without a second thought.
It wasn’t that he intentionally didn’t tell Cheng Su; rather, he had forgotten and simply didn’t have the self-awareness that he was already a married man with his own family!
He had been a soldier for over a decade, having fought and crawled his way through life and death to reach his current position. Others envied his youthful ascent to the rank of company commander, not realizing it was earned by hovering on the brink of life and death many tis, like that one ti...
Throughout these years, Qi Taiguo had always been mindful of his identity. He was a soldier, and it was his unconditional duty to obey his superiors’ orders; defending the country was his lifelong mission.
For all those years, he had been alone, never having to report to anyone about going on missions. To say he forgot would rather an he was used to it!
Therefore, when this mission arose, being very urgent, he didn’t think twice; he packed up at the military base and left. Only now, seated on the fighter jet, listening to the idle chatter of his comrades, did he rember that he was married, that he had a family, a wife!
And what does starting a family represent? It signifies an additional responsibility. It would be reasonable, both emotionally and logically, for him to have inford Cheng Su before leaving on a mission. And yet, he had forgotten!
Qi Taiguo’s face turned somber. He pursed his lips and muttered under his breath, "Does a man going on a mission need to check in first? It’s not like I’m off doing sothing ssy, but risking my life for the country. Besides, now that I’m gone, she might as well be happy!"
But really, could she be happy?
Thinking back to the ’three Chapter agreent’ Cheng Su had ntioned before, the insistence on clear communication and mutual decision-making, that seriousness...
Qi Taiguo suddenly beca uncertain.
"Attention, we’re approaching the airspace above the hills where the Eagles are located. Prepare for low-altitude landing," the commander appeared before each soldier, instructing them solemnly with his hands behind his back.
Qi Taiguo couldn’t afford to ponder anymore. He stood up, took his parachute, and put it on...
Would Cheng Su be happy? To hell with it!
When Cheng Su heard that Qi Taiguo had left on a mission without leaving a single word for her, she was so enraged that she went to kick the bivouac where Qi Taiguo usually slept several tis to vent her anger, cursing him for what he considered her to be. She had actually heard about the mission from the mouth of another soldier.
It made her furious!
Once her anger subsided a bit, she couldn’t help but worry. What kind of mission had he departed on? Could it be dangerous?
It wasn’t that she was particularly fond of Qi Taiguo, but they were married, and he was her man. She definitely didn’t want to carry the stigma of widowhood at such a young age!
Not to ntion, they had an agreent, and now he had broken it.
Hmph!
If the rules were broken, it wouldn’t be fair for only one to break them. If one breaks them, then they should be broken together.
Cheng Su packed up her things, and the next day, she went to both the Gold shop and the Pawnshop, exchanging for forty yuan. Adding that to her savings, she had a total of ninety-six yuan and returned to that restaurant.
All the money she had was ninety-six, with the transfer fee being ninety. If she gave it all away, what use would the remaining few yuan be? Therefore, Cheng Su, through much pleading and bargaining, managed to first give eighty, promising to return the remaining ten yuan the following month.
Fortunately, Old Wang and his wife, who owned the restaurant, were honest folks. Seeing Cheng Suxin’s sincerity and urgency, and considering her deanor, they thought of it as making a friend and agreed to her terms.
Cheng Suxin was delighted. The contract was quickly signed by both parties, and after registering with the relevant departnt, within two days, the unassuming restaurant officially changed ownership to Cheng Su’s na.
