120: Chapter 101 I’ll Beat You to Death 120: Chapter 101 I’ll Beat You to Death The first update is here; another will follow.
————————-
It was barely eight o’clock at night, and the streets were already deadly silent.
She rembered her era when nightlife was just beginning at this ti.
Staring out of the window, Chuxia felt helpless and powerless.
She asked him why he thought she should marry him.
He said that since she dared co to him even after knowing what had happened in his family, then she must be prepared to face the consequences.
His family had already clearly stated they would no longer push him, no longer force him, yet he still made her bear such consequences.
That was too impolite, too domineering, and too dismissive!
Moreover, she was only seventeen!
Did he really not feel any psychological barriers?
Marrying a girl ten years his junior, could he truly claim he had no psychological barriers?
In front of his family, she couldn’t ask him whether he liked her or anything like that.
She could only play dumb; whatever he said, she didn’t respond.
She believed that once they left his ho and the ti passed, he would change his mind.
Dinner was at his place, and the atmosphere was grim.
After the al, everyone dispersed quickly, even Zeng ili, who had co with her, had disappeared.
As for Zhou Hanliang, he had run off before the al was over.
She wanted to run too, but, unfamiliar with the place and without anyone to guide her, she didn’t dare to flee.
One by one, they had no loyalty!
Well, it’s not like they were very close to her, and maybe there really wasn’t any loyalty to speak of, but—they were at least her superiors, and should take so responsibility, right?
How could they shalessly dump her, a young girl, to face on her own the terrifying man even they were afraid to provoke?
Sigh, the truth was, they really could do so without sha…
With a sigh, Chuxia’s gaze retreated from the window, and she glanced at the brigade commander Tongzi, who drove with a solemn face, and sighed again quietly.
He glared at her, “What are you sighing about at such a young age?”
“Commander, aren’t you a bit too old to be acting this petulant?”
“Who said I’m petulant?” he frowned, “Where did you see that I am petulant?”
Grinding her teeth, Chuxia asked, “Then do you like ?”
“I like you.”
The reply was quite prompt.
Did he really understand what she ant?
Chuxia rolled her eyes inwardly, “What I an is, do you have the kind of feelings a man has for a woman towards ?”
“Am I not a man and you not a woman?”
Did this person really not understand?
Chuxia had to be more straightforward, “Do you feel your heart race when you see ?”
“If my heart doesn’t beat, can I live?”
Flip the table!
Chuxia was truly infuriated.
Was there such a person?
She didn’t believe he couldn’t understand what she was saying.
If he still didn’t get it after she’d been so direct, he must be an idiot with comprehension issues!
Could an idiot beco a commander?
“Zhou Mikang, don’t play dumb with .
Dare you swear you don’t know what I’m asking?”
Glancing at the bristled little kitten, Zhou Mikang’s lips finally twisted into what looked like a smile, “Lin Chuxia, are you so unwilling to marry ?”
“If you truly like , wholeheartedly want to marry …” Chuxia’s face turned red as she paused for a long ti before continuing, “Then, maybe marrying you wouldn’t be unacceptable.
But the reality is, you’re just fed up with your family pressuring you and looking for anyone to resolve the imdiate problem.
That’s…
that’s unfair to !
Yes, with your background, if you really forced to marry you, then I would have no choice but to comply.
But I would look down on you!
Forever!”
“Now, in your eyes, I’m no different from Xue Ligang, right?”
“You’re worse than him!” At this point, Chuxia was all in.
She was just a post-90s girl, spoiled from birth, unaccustod to hardship.
It was already her limit to endure this long before erupting.”
Zhou Mikang nodded, “Hmm, I guess I am worse than him, because my rank is higher, my family background is stronger, and if I chose, a line of girls would queue up to marry .
Yet, I insist on forcing a girl who doesn’t like to marry .
That’s shaless, right?”
This was very clear!
Chuxia didn’t try to hide her disapproval as she gave him a thumbs-up without making a sound.
“That’s just your thinking, it doesn’t an I think the sa way,” Zhou Mikang’s face darkened, “I’ve asked you before, you joined the army to make life better for your parents, right?”
Chuxia nodded affirmatively, “Right!”
“So, how do you plan to make their life better?”
She had thought about this countless tis, and Chuxia naturally replied, “Perform well, switch to being a volunteer soldier or apply to military school.
Later, I can bring them over and not let them be bullied anymore.”
Zhou Mikang gave her a dismissive glance, “That’s your idea, but have you considered whether they will adapt after leaving their holand?
“So what you’re saying is, I should stop being a soldier and go ho?” Chuxia blinked her large eyes, “I see.
You an, if I don’t marry you, I have to go ho, right?”
Zhou Mikang frowned, “Lin Chuxia, do you have a blockhead or sothing?”
“You’re the one with a blockhead!”
Zhou Mikang shook his head helplessly, “Not grown up yet, but sure stubborn.
Tell , Lin Chuxia, why do you always explode like you’ve eaten gunpowder every ti you see ?
What have I done to you?”
“How have you offended ?” Chuxia looked speechless, “Heh…
You really have the nerve to ask.
If this were ancient tis, I’m afraid you’d be the tyrant who kidnaps village girls in broad daylight with your servants!”
“Alright, let’s get to the point.
Let put it this way, for your parents, the most important thing is that you marry well.
What they want isn’t for you to work hard like a man, bringing them into an unfamiliar place to live.”
“I understand…” Chuxia looked enlightened, “You’re saying that if I marry you, it will bring honor to my parents and make them happy, right?”
“You’ve finally smartened up.
Think about it, if your parents leave their holand for an unfamiliar place, knowing no one but you, would they truly be happy?”
“As long as they are with , they will be happy.”
“Lin Chuxia, can we stick to the issue without being stubborn?”
“Who is being stubborn with you?” Chuxia rolled her eyes, “After all is said and done, you just want to prove that what you’re doing is actually for my sake, for my parents’ sake.”
“That’s exactly the case,” Zhou Mikang sighed, “Lin Chuxia, don’t think that I’m saying I want to marry you just on a whim.
In fact, after knowing all that my family has done, I’ve had this idea.
If I told you that I liked you from the first mont I saw you and that I’ve always thought of you and wanted to marry you, I wouldn’t believe it myself.
But you have to believe that marrying , you will get everything you want.
You can continue to be a soldier.
You don’t have to worry about supporting the family, including your parents’ care in their old age, I will take care of that.
Every year, I will accompany you ho.
Other tis, if you want to go ho, just go.
I will take care of the leave, the travel expenses, and any other expenses.
If your parents want to live closer to you, then, buying a house for them will be my responsibility.
In short, marrying , you can eat well and live well, all your wishes can be fulfilled.
Beyond that, you will be able to do so things you want to do.
You won’t have to worry about which family’s son has taken a liking to you and wants to marry you, nor will you have to worry about being abandoned by the man who married you because you’ve aged.
As for those relatives who look down on your parents, from now on, they will only envy your occasional marriage.
Lin Chuxia, aren’t these your goals?
Think about it, marrying , isn’t it beneficial in every way and not harmful at all?”
It seed that in his eyes, her being a soldier was just so she could eat well, while his marrying her was tantamount to rescuing her?
Taking a deep breath, Chuxia said, “You an, apart from love, you can give everything else, right?”
“Love, I will give you that too, as long as you have the patience,” he replied.
Taking another deep breath, Chuxia tried to suppress the anger welling up inside her, “Why ?”
“One, you’re the only girl who’s dared to stand up to over the years.
Two, you’re the only girl who still had no designs on after learning of my identity.
Three, you’re the only girl who’s made feel that marriage isn’t so bad.
Four, you’re the only girl who my family has misunderstood.
There are more reasons, but I can’t think of them at the mont.”
“I’m only seventeen.”
“No problem, I’m old enough.
As soon as I report it, we can get married right away.”
“I…” Chuxia pronounced each word with deliberation, “I’m not worried about being too young to get married.
What I want to know is, are you really okay with marrying a seventeen-year-old girl?”
“What’s there to be okay with?
Back in ancient tis, at your age, you would have been a mother already.
Plus, your birthday is in the first lunar month; you could count as eighteen now,” Zhou Mikang said matter-of-factly.
“Hmph!” Chuxia didn’t know what to say anymore.
She turned her head to the window, ignoring him.
She didn’t understand—why were his family mbers so afraid of him?
He was just a muddle-headed fool; what was there to be afraid of?
“Let’s settle the matter like this.
Write to your parents and ask for their opinion.
Before the end of the year, let’s get married.
As for whether or not you want to continue in the dical team, it’s up to you.
However, with your physique, you really need to exercise more.
No, just stay with the dical team first.
Once your body is stronger, then consider changing to another place…”
Listening to Zhou Mikang’s endless prattle, Chuxia’s repressed anger finally shot to the top of her head, and she suddenly shouted, “Stop the car!”
“Screech!”
Zhou Mikang reflexively hit the brakes, “What’s the matter?”
Chuxia turned around and lunged at him, scratching at his head, “Ow, I’m going to beat you to death!
Beat you to death!!
Beat you to death!!!” (To be continued.
