Chapter 199: Marriage Proposal
I smiled and said confidently:
"First, let Zhong Jie become the person in the shadow group, second..."
Before I finished speaking, Mr. Zhong interrupted me and said:
"Changfeng, it seems unrealistic to let Xiaojie enter the shadow group. First of all, she does not meet the selection criteria of the shadow group. From a private perspective, I don't want my only granddaughter to engage in dangerous jobs!"
I smiled and said:
"If conditions are said, it is absolutely no problem. I was not an ordinary military academy student at the time? Because I practiced Longteng, I achieved excellent results in Shadow Training. So as long as Zhong Jie practiced Longteng, the selection conditions and other aspects were no problem! Of course, I can't do anything about your second reason. Haha, I'd better talk about the second method. I will guide Zhong Jie alone..."
Mr. Zhong listened quietly, and I continued:
"The textbook I drafted is top secret, but this textbook can be said to be my brain. Even if I can't spread the top secrets without authorization, the things in my mind always belong to me. Longteng is my own thing. Who would I teach to should not violate the regulations? Besides, Zhong Jie is the real owner of Longteng in a sense!"
Mr. Zhong pondered for a while and said:
"I prefer the second solution, Changfeng. Now anyone who knows the inside story dares not be skeptical about Longteng anymore. Longteng can be said to have become a treasure of the army and the country. At this time, you are willing to teach it to Xiaojie. I am very grateful to you!"
I said with a smile:
"Grandpa, are you still polite to me? I said just now that Longteng originally belonged to the Zhong family..."
Mr. Zhong interrupted me and said:
"Changfeng, you don't have to mention this all the time. You know very well in your heart that if it weren't for you, our Zhong family would only have a beautiful necklace. And if you didn't have you risked your risk and kept exploring, Longteng wouldn't have been able to spread on a large scale like today! So not only our Zhong family wants to thank you, the army and the country, too!"
I laughed dryly and said:
"No matter what, you don't have to say thank you to your child! By the way, grandpa, Zhong Jie is going to ask you to tell me. It's easier for you to communicate with her if you should emphasize confidentiality. After that, you'll just ask her to come and find me!"
Mr. Zhong said cheerfully:
"no problem!"
Since it was a weekend, after I came out of the office, I greeted Lei Jun and drove out. Xiaoying and I hadn't seen each other for a whole month. I was busy with training plans during this period, so I spent almost every day in the camp and never went out.
Before leaving the camp, I was busy in the office for a while - a question I had been thinking about this month I finally made a decision last night - I picked up a stack of paper spit out of the printer, drove to a gift shop in the city center, found a beautiful box, and at the same time I bought a beautiful sign pen and put it in the box with the paper I had prepared.
Half an hour later, I restarted the car and drove to the "Haokelai" steak shop that I had made an appointment with Xiaoying. The exquisitely packaged box was quietly lying in the passenger seat. While driving, I kept rubbing the box, and was full of expectations for the upcoming meeting.
After I parked the car, Xiaoying was already standing at the door - on time is one of her major advantages. Today's Xiaoying seems particularly beautiful in my eyes. She made a hairstyle a few days ago. After spraying gel water, her wet hair was slightly curled. The permed hair not only did not make people feel very charming, but instead gave people a cute feeling. Xiaoying wore a pink jacket and white jeans, and her whole body looked very refreshing. I put the gift box in my pocket and walked up to Xiaoying with a smile.
After Xiaoying saw me, she showed her unique charming smile. When I walked to her, she naturally took my arm, then turned her head and asked mischievously:
"Changfeng, do I look particularly old after I finish my hair?"
I couldn't help but laugh, gently scraped her nose and said:
"Silly girl, hasn't anyone ever praised your hairstyle? To be honest, you gave me a bright feeling today. I was thinking in my heart just now, the most correct and wise decision I have ever made in my life is to make you my girlfriend!"
Xiaoying's face turned slightly red and she chuckled:
"A guy with a smooth tongue!"
I immediately said:
"Of course you have the most say in this. I don't have oily mouth and my tongue is slippery or not!"
Xiaoying was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought of the deep meaning in my words. Her face turned red and she kept hitting my chest with her right hand and said:
"You bad guy! You can say all this!"
I naturally didn't care about Xiaoying's strength that could only scratch me or massage me. I laughed:
"Girl, let's go in and find the location first. There are a lot of people on weekends!"
After saying that, I walked towards the store, and the little shadow holding my arm naturally followed closely. We were lucky enough to find a place by the window. From here, the traffic at the intersection of East Street was at your feet, and the beautiful scenery of Fuzhou Commercial Center was unobstructed. After ordering two 70-ripe T-bone steaks, we sat in the seat, enjoying the view outside the window while chatting softly.
After a while, our steak was ready. After I signaled the waiter to leave, I said to Xiaoying who was about to start:
"Girl, I'll eat later. I have something to say to you!"
Xiaoying looked at me with a flash of eyes and asked with a smile:
"Changfeng, I suddenly felt that you were weird today. I honestly told you! Do you have any conspiracy?"
I was dizzy! But speaking of it, I seemed to be a little "conspiracy" today. I laughed dryly and said:
"I'm wronged! Xiaoying, what kind of conspiracy can I do with such a pure person? I just have a gift to give to you..."
Xiaoying asked with a smile:
"Oh? Take it out and I'll take a look!"
I didn't take out the box immediately, just smiled and said:
"You must accept it after I take it out!"
Xiaoying's eyes turned and said:
"It depends on what it is... Do you want to take me a dead mouse and I will also carry it home?"
After taking a look at the delicious steak, I showed signs of dizziness again. After a while, I said to Xiaoying who was joking:
"I promise not to play pranks with you. I really have something to give to you!"
Xiaoying thought for a while and said:
"Okay! After all, a deputy league cadre is giving me a gift! No matter how hard it is, I will accept it!"
I said with a smile:
"very good!"
After saying that, I took out the box I had prepared long ago from my pocket with lightning speed and handed it to Xiaoying, and said:
"Open it and take a look! I hope you can like it!"
Xiaoying looked at me suspiciously, and her expression seemed to be really worried that I would put a dead mouse in the box...
Xiaoying slowly tore open the outer packaging, revealing the antique box inside, and my heartbeat gradually accelerated. After Xiaoying glanced at me, she gently opened the box...
I carefully observed Xiaoying's expression. After she opened the box, she picked up the stack of printing paper and looked at it. After looking at a line, her face suddenly turned red. She looked at me nervously and found that after I was looking at her, she seemed to be a frightened bird, quickly dodging my gaze.
I thought to myself: I haven’t seen Xiaoying’s extremely shy look for a long time. To be honest, her expression when she was shy was really heart-pounding!
I gently reached out and grabbed Xiaoying's hand. She didn't seem to notice my movements. It was not until I held her weak and boneless hand that she looked at me in panic, but she did not pull back her hand. I pointed to Xiaoying's document with the cover of the "Military Cadre Marriage Application" and said:
"Xiaoying, are you still satisfied with this gift? If you think it's OK, then pick up the pen on your hand and sign your beautiful name!"
Xiaoying raised her head and opened her mouth. Just as she was about to speak, I rushed to say:
"You know it's very troublesome for an officer to get married. He has to apply for a report and approve it step by step, so if we get married in October, we should start these procedures now..."
Xiaoying stopped me from continuing with her eyes, and she said:
"Changfeng, I'm so happy! I know you care about me very much. Marrying you is something I have always dreamed of, but I feel it seems to be too hasty, and I'm not ready yet..."
I thought about it and asked with a smile:
"Xiaoying, do you think it's not romantic enough without an engagement ring? Do you think I might be so careless? Look at what this is?"
After saying that, in Xiaoying's surprised eyes, I took out the engagement ring that I had prepared yesterday from my pocket like a magic trick. I gently opened the box and took out one of the rings. When I was about to kneel down, Xiaoying quickly stopped me and she said:
"Changfeng, I don't think it's not romantic. I'm really happy to be with you. Today I can treat me like this, and I'm very, very happy! But I think it's really not the time to get married now..."
I quietly put away my ring, tidy up my clothes, and asked calmly:
"Can you tell me the reason?"
Xiaoying faced my gaze, thought for a moment and spoke:
"First, my job is still in its infancy, and everything is not stable yet; second, I think it doesn't seem good for Zhong Jie when we get engaged at this time..."
I understood as soon as I heard this. The second reason is the real reason why Xiaoying hesitates. This silly girl! I can also consider so much about personal relationship issues. I really convinced her! Don’t they say that both men and women in love are irrational? Why does my Xiaoying consider so many things?
I took a deep breath and said:
"I accept the reasons for work. I promise you that I will not mention marriage before I transfer to the main group. However, when I transfer to the main group, your work will probably be on the right track. I will propose to you again, and you are not allowed to refuse!"
Actually, I have selfish intentions to say this. I know that Lei Jun has only a handful of days in the Thunder Brigade. It may be the case that I have been in the process of adjusting the regiment in the past few months...
Xiaoying opened her mouth, I stopped her with my eyes, and then said:
"As for the second reason, I have already told you with my actions, Xiaoying, you are an adult, and you don't know that things about feelings cannot be forced, right? I like you, I love you, my heart can no longer tolerate others. Why do we force our feelings because of other people? Isn't this asking for trouble?"
When I talked about it, my tone was a little excited. Maybe I said this to increase my confidence! I cannot deny that my feelings for Zhong Jie are a bit different, but I think most of them are brother and sister. I have been thinking about my own affairs for the past month, and finally figured it out. Since Xiaoying is something I cannot give up, it is a beautiful dream in my previous life, and an angel that I will never forget in this life, I will not consider other factors. I will make a quick decision and do what I want to do first, so that I will take action to propose today.
Xiaoying was a little excited when she saw me, and she hurriedly said:
"Changfeng, don't get me wrong. I don't doubt how you treat Zhong Jie, but it is undeniable that Zhong Jie likes you very much. At this time, you get married or even get married, she will feel very uncomfortable. So I want to wait until she figured it out before we consider the marriage. After all, we are all good friends..."
I sighed and said:
"Okay, anyway, I promise you to consider getting married when you are transferring to the group, so let's talk about it later!"
Xiaoying looked at me carefully and asked:
"Changfeng, I don't give you face so much, you must be very angry, right?"
I smiled bitterly and said:
"Silly girl, I don't blame you. How could I bear to blame you for being so kind? If you want to blame, you can only blame God for giving me a Bodhisattva heart. You should consider other people's feelings first..."
Xiaoying was not angry when she saw that I was not angry, and she breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:
"Just not be angry, haha, Changfeng, actually I thought just now that if you persist, I will promise you..."
Seeing my pretended ferocious gaze, Xiaoying screamed softly and said repeatedly:
"Eat something! Eat something! Changfeng, you can eat too! The steak is not delicious when it is cold!"
