Chapter 83: of course

The two walked side by side on the sidewalk. In order to take care of Su Ran who was wearing high heels, Han Dong slowed down his pace. The street lights lengthened the figures of the two people. The two shadows were sometimes close and sometimes separated, just like two hearts that wanted to get close but were shy to keep a distance.

"On the day you were transferred to another hospital, I saw a helicopter circling over the camp for three weeks. Instructor Han, were you on the plane?" Su Ran looked at him. Under the dim street lights, his profile was like a perfectly curved silhouette. She could never get enough of looking at it.

"Um!"

"I knew it was you. I waved to you." Su Ran smiled, joy overflowing in her heart, like the gentle ripples in a lotus pond rippling in her heart.

A barely perceptible smile appeared on Han Dong's lips.

Yeah

He thought she was still sleeping, but he didn't expect that she saw it. Is this considered telepathy

"Coach Han, I'm glad to see you tonight. Otherwise, I don't know when we can meet again."

"Um!"

Han Dong's smile deepened. He was also happy. He had been hesitant. Should he meet her? He had to thank his sister for the call.

Su Ran thought to herself: What does "hmm" mean? Does it mean that he knows? Or... is he happy too

"Instructor Han, one of our filming locations this time seems to be not far from the military training unit."

"oh!"

"Will you return to the army after you are discharged from the hospital?"

"Um!"

"Do you usually have holidays?"

Just as Han Dong was about to speak, Su Ran warned him, "No more umms or ohs."

Han Dong sneered: "Whether I can have a holiday depends on the result of this exercise. If the result is good and there are no tasks, I may have a holiday. However, I can't catch up with this exercise, so the result is hard to say."

He understood what she meant, she was asking him if it would be possible for him to visit the set if he had any days off.

But he couldn't give a definite answer now, their tasks were sudden and out of their control. He never promised things that were uncertain.

"Oh..." Su Ran drew out the last syllable, feeling a little disappointed.

After a moment of silence, Su Ran asked again: "I heard that your family wants you to marry Dr. Jiang, is that true?"

"When to get married and who to marry is my business. Others have no right to interfere and cannot interfere." Han Dong said.

Su Ran became happy again, knowing that he was a man of his own ideas and would not be easily manipulated.

However, their current relationship was quite awkward. It seemed as if they both understood each other's feelings, but they had never broken the window paper. Su Ran pursed her lips and secretly made up her mind to take advantage of such a rare opportunity today to finalize their relationship, so as to avoid being unclear and unconfident in speaking.

Su Ran mustered up the courage to ask, "Coach Han, I... I've had several romances in plays, but they were all scripted, and I just had to act according to the script. Now, I want to have a good romance in real life, with you, are you willing?"

Su Ran looked around but didn't dare look at him. She was worried that he hadn't made up his mind yet.

This was her third confession, and it would be so embarrassing if she didn't get a response.

Han Dong was also thinking about how to tell her that the appearance of Gu Yunchen made him feel a certain sense of crisis. He knew that guy liked to make trouble, so he had to confirm their relationship as soon as possible to prevent Gu Yunchen from causing trouble.

This was the third time she took the initiative to confess her love. The first time it was too sudden and he hadn't thought it through at all. He had too many concerns, so he didn't respond. The second time he thought he was going to die and had no right to accept her love. Now, he has made his feelings clear, but he didn't expect her to get there first again.

Su Ran waited for a long time, but he still didn't respond, and she couldn't help feeling annoyed.

"You can think about it for three days." Su Ran tried to save face dejectedly.

"If after three days, you still feel that it is not possible... then I will..."

Then she really didn't have the face to bother him anymore.

Han Dong said calmly: "Dating without the purpose of getting married is just hooliganism."

Su Ran was surprised and said, "I'm not being naughty! I'm serious. If you want to get married, then get married. I have no objection."

She couldn't ask for more, and her grandparents would definitely not object. Her grandfather loved soldiers the most and when she was a child, he told her stories about wars and they only watched war TV dramas.

Han Dong stopped and looked at her. His deep eyes were like the calm sea, with undercurrents surging in the calm. He said solemnly, "I'm in the army all year round and have few vacations. If you're with me, I may not have much time to accompany you."

"It's okay. I also have to travel frequently and film a movie. I'm afraid I won't have time to accompany you. But communication is so convenient now. We can call or video chat."

"I often have to go on missions, and some of them are very dangerous. If you stay with me, you will inevitably live in fear."

"I know, so I will cherish the time I spend with you even more. I won't cry and hold you back. I will wait patiently for you to come back. Also, you know there is someone in this world who cares about you. You will be more careful when you go on a mission, right?"

"I'm a boring person, I don't talk much, I don't understand romance, and sometimes I'm quite overbearing."

"I like you like this." Su Ran said. Besides, she didn't think he was boring or unromantic at all. His coldness and domineeringness seemed romantic to her.

"If we want to be together, we might encounter some resistance."

"I'm not afraid. As long as you are determined, I will fight alongside you until victory."

Han Dong looked at her determined eyes and couldn't help but recall the day when she cried heartbrokenly. She cried and said... I like you! It's the first time I like someone. I also thought that one day you would like me too, and we could go shopping, eat, watch movies like ordinary couples. You shoot guns... I will load bullets for you, you go on missions, and I will wait for you to come back...

He sighed silently in his heart, and now he finally believed that sentence... All the waiting was to meet the best you. How lucky I am that such a good you also likes me in your heart.

Han Dong held her in his arms, his heart was soft beyond words, and he spoke in a low and hoarse voice: "Silly girl, you have to think it over carefully. I am a person who will never let go once I make up my mind. You will have no chance to regret it now."

Su Ran hugged him and nodded vigorously in his arms: "I've thought about it. I won't regret it. It's just... you have to think about it too. I'm an actor. I'm in the entertainment industry, so it's inevitable that I'll be involved in gossip. You have to believe me."

"I know what kind of person you are."

"So am I your girlfriend now?" Su Ran asked with her head raised, her eyes becoming brighter and brighter because of joy and anticipation, shining like the stars in the sky.

Han Dong smiled, the tenderness and pampering in his eyes were as mellow as wine, he lowered his head and kissed her beautiful red lips, answering her with practical actions.

Of course, it has been a long time since then. You are my first girlfriend and also my last girlfriend.
