âWhat kind of like were you talking about? The kind between friends?â Nian Junting said blandly, âYouâre not friends, so he surely canât like you. Donât think too much. You only need to like me.â
Luo Sang found that she wasnât able to communicate with Nian Junting about feelings. However, she thought carefully and felt that he was probably right. It was the first time Feng Ji Chuan had met her, and he knew nothing about her. So indeed, he didnât have a reason to like her. She didnât like him, either. She was just curious about him because of Nian Xi. Thinking this way, she stopped struggling over this question.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
As they arrived at the military region hospital, Mrs. Feng was there, too. She had a weird look on her face uopn seeing Luo Sang. Right at that moment, a doctor called Feng Ji Chuanâs family and said, âThe medical facilities where Ji Chuan came from arenât good enough, and with the long travel time, his wounds are getting pretty serious. He had better stay in the hospital for a week.â
âAunty, Iâll look after Ji Chuan. Iâve already asked for time off,â Nian Xi offered.
Mrs. Feng smiled. However, before she could answer, Feng Ji Chuan said in a soft voice, âMy mother has hired a carer for me. You donât need to be here at night. You can come here in daytime.â
âBut...â Nian Xi pouted.
âYou,â Mrs. Feng glanced at Ji Chaun and said discontentedly, âYouâre rarely back. Nian Xi just wants to seize the time to be with you. Sheâll keep you company.â
âThe hospital is dirty, and she canât sleep well here.â Feng Ji Chuan frowned helplessly.
âAlright, in that case, letâs do what Ji Chuan said,â Nian Junting said to Nian Xi, âYouâll sleep at home.â
Nian Xi gave him a threatening glance. At that moment, someone knocked on the door to the ward. Everyone turned to look at the door and saw Nian Qingyun and his chauffeur walking in, carrying a bunch of fruit and nutritional supplements.
âJi Chuan, are you feeling better?â asked Nian Qingyun. âIâm here to see you.â
âUncle, I just got here, and youâre already showing up. Youâre really efficient,â Feng Ji Chuan said jokingly.
Nian Qingyun laughed and said, âHaha, I have to. Youâre my future son-in-law.â However, the grin on his face froze when he saw Luo Sang, who was standing beside Nian Junting.
âMr. Nian.â Luo Sang didnât like him, as she had heard his story. However, he was Nian Juntingâs father, after all, so she greeted him politely.
Nian Qingyun didnât look at Luo Sang, but turned to his son with a dark face and said, âIsnât this your gossip girlfriend that everyone talked about earlier? Didnât you break up?â
âWe broke up for a couple of days, now weâre back together.â Nian Junting held Luo Sangâs hand and said, âLet me introduce your future daughter-in-law to you.â
âYou...â Nian Qingyunâs face twisted slightly. However, he controlled himself, as many people were on the scene. Remembering his important purpose, he didnât lose his temper but turned to Mr. Feng, smiled, and asked, âFeng, at this age, howâs your journey to the China-India border?â
âIt was too much to take.â Mr. Feng waved his hands and laughed. âThankfully, Junting and Si were with me. As weâre all here now, I want to talk about the wedding. Ji Chuan and Nian Xi have been engaged for years. As Ji Chuan is taking injury leave this time, I think they should hold a wedding at New Yearâs. We donât want any further delay.â
âWeâre thinking the same thing.â Nian Qingyun looked delighted. âThere are quite a few lucky dates after New Yearâs. I think Ji Chuan shouldnât always be a soldier away from home. Next year, Iâll find a way to transfer him back to Xia City.â
âUncle Nian, Dad, I want to stay in the army,â Feng Ji Chuan said abruptly. The ward fell into silence. Nian Xi stared at him, confused.
