He Ruojin had made plans, thinking that after the two got engaged, he and General Ning asked for a break. He wanted to take Sheng Ling to play for a while so that Sheng Ling could relax and unwind.
He has even made several travel plans, and every place he wants to go must be with Sheng Ling.
But what was unexpected was that an urgent report came from the Military Aircraft Department, saying that the war in southern Xinjiang was urgent and reinforcements from the Sheng Army were needed.
He Ruojin took the order early in the morning to go to the staff, and it was finally determined that he would lead the army to southern Xinjiang to quell the war.
When he walked out of the military camp, He Ruojin's expression was as calm as ever, even a little indifferent. Instead of training as before, he went up to the high platform and sat down by the heater with his legs bent.
Luo Yi, who was behind him, followed him, frowned, raised his foot and touched the wooden railing of the high platform lightly, and glanced at him sideways: "Why didn't you resist for a while and then agreed?"
He Ruojin said calmly: "Military orders are like mountains."
"It's not like there's no one in the army who can go for you. You and the little princess have just been engaged for half a month, and you haven't even gone out to play yet. It will take you at least a few months to go, okay?" Luo Yi I feel worthless for him.
He Ruojin reached out and pressed her forehead, closed her eyes, and said in a low voice: "Among the new generals in the army, I am the only one who has been to southern Xinjiang. In front of the country, I cannot use the love between children as an excuse. I believe Ling'er will understand. .”
When Luo Yi heard what he said, he couldn't help but hesitate to speak. However, as He Ruojin's brother, he had fought with him on the battlefield for many years and knew what kind of person he was, so in the end he could only sigh with great regret. tone.
He knows better than anyone else that it is far more difficult for He Ruochen to pursue Sheng Ling than others think, because not only does he like Sheng Ling, but he also has to restrain his love because of his identity.
…
On this day, after Sheng Ling finished school, she waited for someone outside the academy.
Ever since she got engaged to He Ruochen, He Ruochen relied on his upright status to come and pick her up on time every day when she got off school. He Ruochen would not take her anywhere specially, and would usually just accompany her to eat. Order something and send her back to the princess mansion.
He never did anything excessive to her.
However, He Ruochen came a little later than usual today. When He Ruochen came over from the military camp, he saw Sheng Ling in student uniform standing quietly under the silver-covered tree outside the academy. The snow was a bit thick, so Sheng Ling lowered his head slightly and stepped lightly on the snow with the toes of his shoes.
She looked down, obediently, and her eyelashes were still stained with snow.
He Ruochen walked over from behind her, took off her cloak, and put it on Sheng Ling.
Sheng Ling grabbed the warm and soft cloak covering her body, turned around and saw He Ruochen.
He Ruojin reached out to brush away the snowflakes from her hair, "Will you wait for me for a long time?"
"Just waited for a while."
"Is it cold?"
Sheng Ling shook his head.
He Ruojin gently took her little hand, warmed her hand, and walked forward.
"Is the military camp busy?" Sheng Ling asked casually on the way, his voice was very soft, and there was a small puff of heat when he spoke.
He Ruojin said "hmm" and was silent for a moment before choosing to tell Sheng Ling directly, "Ling'er, I will set off on an expedition to southern Xinjiang in two days."
His words were a bit sudden. Sheng Ling was stunned for a while before he reacted. He said with some worry, "I heard that it is very cold in southern Xinjiang at this time."
He Ruochen nodded, but couldn't help but slowly squeeze her little hand, "When I come back, I will come back as soon as possible to celebrate the New Year with you."
Sheng Ling could clearly feel that he was holding her hand tightly, and He Ruojin was reluctant to let her go.
She nodded slightly, looked at him quietly with clear eyes, and said, "Don't worry, I will wait for you."
Sheng Ling was sure of He Ruochen's worry and reluctance. She didn't know what she could do for him. The only promise she could make to him was that since she had become his fiancée, she would definitely wait for his return.
