Chapter 60 -59: Wu Zhengran’s Request

“Still arguing, who do I think I am? Someone who understands you even better than your mother. Ever since you got scratched by her Hua Hua, I could tell that you treat Lu Jingqiu differently from other female comrades.”

“When you look at Lu Jingqiu, your eyes shine with a glint.”

Jiang Nanzhou was amused by Lih Huakun’s teasing, “Busybody.”

Lih Huakun didn’t argue, “I’m only a busybody with you. You’re twenty-six this year, and I think it’s indeed time for you to settle down. Uncle Lu’s daughter is well-matched with you in social standing, and Lu Jingqiu is quite good-looking too, very much your type.”

“Firstly, you’re also twenty-six, so if anyone should settle down, it’s you. Secondly, how come she’s suddenly my type? Haven’t you heard the nicknames those soldiers have for me?”

“I’ve always been looking for a suitable comrade in arms, haven’t I? It’s just I haven’t encountered one yet. It’s different for you; you probably haven’t even realized that you’ve recently been paying quite a bit of attention to Lu Jingqiu, even if you’re unaware of it.

Black-faced Jiang, the tough steel man, a sweet and fair girl like that is meant for you, Black-faced Jiang. As a friend, let me remind you, a good partner isn’t something you can easily find. If you like her, you should go after her quickly. I’ve heard that quite a few people in the team like Comrade Jingqiu.”

“It’s natural for everyone to like a good girl, that’s normal.”

“Still making excuses, hmm. Let me ask you, how long has it been since you two met?”

“Has it… Does it count from the first time we saw each other?”

“Yeah.”

“Half a year.”

“In this half-year, how many coincidental meetings have there been?”

“…Six or seven times.”

“Tsk, for two people who aren’t familiar with each other to meet up so many times in such a short period, it’s like heaven is creating opportunities for you. You’d better not foolishly treat her just as an ordinary friend.”

“I haven’t treated her as just an ordinary friend,” Jiang Nanzhou replied subconsciously.

Lih Huakun said, “Oh? So you do like her.”

Seeing his friend start to dig deeper, Jiang Nanzhou pursed his lips and refused to tell him.

Lih Huakun was used to this and didn’t get angry. He continued to analyze for his friend, “Look at me, we both came to West City around the same time, and I’ve obviously met Lu Jingqiu fewer times than you.

I’m very good at reading people, and Lu Jingqiu, this girl, is kind-hearted, virtuous, and not delicate, also she is very steady in her work, very suitable for you. If you think she’s good, you should take action quickly. I’m going back to the hospital now, you think about it yourself.”

“Not staying for dinner?”

“The hospital is short-staffed, and I’m doing the work of two. Sometimes I think I might as well have it easier like Hua Hua in Lu Jingqiu’s house.”

Jiang Nanzhou laughed at his words and agreed, “Her cat ranks first in her home, completely overpowering Commander Lu’s status. I highly agree.”

“If you became part of her family, you could try competing with Hua Hua for rank.”

“Get out of here.”

Jiang Nanzhou didn’t take Lih Huakun’s words seriously; his feelings for Lu Jingqiu were indeed just care and concern for the daughter of a family friend and his leader’s family member, without much else on his mind.

…

In the morning, while Lu Jingqiu was picking vegetables in the yard,

Xiao Shun was once again perched on the wall, sharing his joy with a smile, “Sister Xiao Qiu, my mom agreed to let us keep Ah Fu.”

“Really?”

Xiao Shun gave her a thumbs-up with a smile, “My mom said we can keep him, but he’s not allowed to run into the house, only in the yard.”

“That’s great, then take good care of Ah Fu.”

“Yeah, yeah, Sister Xiao Qiu, to thank you, I’ll catch a few more bugs for your chickens this week.”

Lu Jingqiu gave him a thumbs-up; having a little helper like him was certainly better than managing a large group.

When she arrived at the unit, Yang Bo and Luo Xinyue were already there.

The work at hand was still the previous project, and they didn’t start on new tasks.

Therefore, the three of them also got off work a little earlier.

After getting home, she continued her unwavering studies. Of course, she also kept an eye on Hua Hua’s health these past few days.

By the third day of medication, Hua Hua’s stools had formed properly.

Lu Jingqiu didn’t dare to feed it raw meat, seeing that it wouldn’t go out, it also stopped catching mice.

After a week of work, their coordination was seamless, and they completed a small half of the project.

On Friday afternoon, Lu Jingqiu and Gao Qing went to the school together.

On the way back, Lu Jingqiu mentioned Wu Zhengran to her, “He came to see me, and I even accepted his gifts. Do you want to meet him?”

“Comrade Jingqiu, are you his friend or mine? You can’t push me away just because of some fruit.”

Lu Jingqiu shook her head, “I just think he’s quite pitiful, he’s about to be heartbroken.”

“Heartbroken? If he has a girlfriend, why is he coming to me?”

“The one he’s heartbroken over is you. In a month, he’s going to Capital City for school, leaving here. Whatever you become, whoever you date, he can do nothing but watch you drift farther and farther away from him.”

“From what you’re saying, I should meet him, comfort his little heart?”

“You can make your thoughts clear to him so he doesn’t get too obsessed.”

Gao Qing sighed, her mind wavering.

“Qingqing, you’re not still thinking about Wei Jincheng, are you?”

As soon as Wei Jincheng was mentioned, Gao Qing’s face instantly brightened with a smile, “Yeah, I asked him out to dinner yesterday.”

“Ah, did you check his background?”

“Not yet, I’ve been too busy to get around to it.”

Lu Jingqiu watched Gao Qing’s triumphant smile and gradually grew worried. If Gao Qing was still entangled with these two men in her life, choosing between Wei Jincheng and Wu Zhengran, she would support Wu Zhengran. At least Wu Zhengran had never done Gao Qing wrong and only ever had Gao Qing in his life.

But Wei Jincheng was different. Although he didn’t like Gao Qing, he had still been ambiguous with her in the beginning, even causing Gao Qing to be unforgettable for a lifetime, which led to her unhappy marriage eventually.

“Since you’ve put it this way, I’ll meet him then, make it clear to him, and let him give up hope.”

Lu Jingqiu nodded, but still reminded her, “You should still inquire about Wei Jincheng. If you have fellow villagers, you can ask them too.”

“Qiuqiu, when did you become such a nag, worse than my mother.”

“Ah?” Had she become naggy?

“Tell Wu Zhengran, I’ll meet him at the park tomorrow afternoon at two o’clock.”

“Okay, but tonight, we still need to study at my place. Have you been studying properly in the dorm this week?”

“I have, I’m so scared they’ll find out, every night I read under the covers with a flashlight. I’ve memorized all the key points you marked for me.”

“That’s impressive.”

“That’s right, Sister is also capable of studying well. Isn’t there a major exam next month? I specifically sought out a teacher from the troupe, told her I wanted to go to university, and asked for her guidance.

Guess what happened?”

“What happened?”

“The teacher, who usually has the same expression for everyone, promptly agreed. She even exempted me from rehearsals, calling me to the dance studio every day after class to coach me on dance movements and encouraging me warmly to work harder.” Gao Qing’s eyes gleamed with joy as she spoke, “Qiuqiu, I had no idea that wanting to go to university would change their attitude towards me so much. You know, they didn’t like me that much before.”

“I told you, teachers and neighbors all like people who are motivated and make an effort.”

“Yeah, the teacher’s encouragement has given me even more motivation. I’m fine with Chinese, but the hardest parts are math and English.”

“Don’t worry, I’m a bit better at math than you, I can teach you. We’ll work together on memorizing English vocabulary.”

“Okay, this time I’ll listen to you.”

Lu Jingqiu went to Wu Zhengran’s house early the next morning—don’t ask how she knew where to go, she remembered everything from her previous life.

Wu Zhengran was so delighted to hear the good news early in the morning that he almost jumped for joy.

Perhaps because Lu Jingqiu was there, he restrained himself, “Old classmate, I really can’t thank you enough. If you ever need help, just ask me, and I’ll be there.”

“No need for that, just don’t forget the time. I’m leaving now.”

“I definitely won’t forget, take care on your way, and I’ll treat you to a meal another day.”

“Goodbye.” Lu Jingqiu certainly didn’t dare to let him buy her a meal, not knowing whether he would be crying after today.
