Chapter 33

“Anyway, you’re mine for life.” Lin Shu Yin hummed.

Shen Guan Nan, “Yours, yours. I’ll find you in my next life, okay?”

“Okay.”

Half a day ago, Shen Guan Nan was a suitable marriage partner.

But now, Lin Shu Yin was sure she was in love with him. She had lacked love since she was a child. Only a man like Shen Guan Nan, who could take care of her, was suitable for her.

She liked being taken care of.

They were being affectionate for a while when Shen Guan Nan sighed,

“We have to be apart again.”

He was so reluctant. He felt miserable all the way back this afternoon.

Lin Shu Yin, “Well, there’s nothing we can do. It’s work.”

“By the way, don’t come next week. I’ll go see you. We won’t be in San He Brigade next week.”

Shen Guan Nan, “Okay.”

Lin Shu Yin let go of him, “Go back quickly. The gate will be closed soon, and you won’t be able to get in.”

“Yeah.”

Shen Guan Nan, “Honey, go in first. I’ll watch you go in.”

“Okay, I’m going then.”

Shen Guan Nan, “Remember to think about me.”

“I’ll think about you all the time.”

It was so strange, so strange. They had only started dating this afternoon. In half a day, how did their relationship progress to this level?

Isn’t this the kind of thing that happens during the honeymoon phase?

Even in the information age, half a day was just the stage of getting to know each other.

[Because you two are destined to be together!] The system’s voice suddenly rang out.

Lin Shu Yin was startled, “You’re online?”

[I’m not busy today.]

“You said we’re destined to be together, like the red string of fate?”

[Yes, a perfect match.]

“I just feel like he’s different from the other guys I dated in my previous life. He’s perfect for me. Everything about him meets my requirements.”

[That’s great. The system is happy for you, host, that you’ve found your soulmate. When you get married and get your marriage certificate, the system will give you a wedding gift.]

“Thank you, system.”

Lin Shu Yin chatted with the system for a few sentences in the courtyard. She turned around and saw that Shen Guan Nan had already left. She carried her things and went inside.

“Wow, did your Battalion Commander Shen buy all this for you?”

Sa Ren was surprised to see a big bag of snacks.

Lin Shu Yin, “Yeah, he said he was afraid I would be hungry.”

Su Xiang Wei tsked, “That’s great. Your Battalion Commander Shen is treating you like a daughter.”

Li Jin Yue, “Shu Yin, shouldn’t you find someone older than you? They’re more likely to be caring.”

Lin Shu Yin, “It depends on the person. Some people are several years older than you, and they’re still big babies.”

“What’s a big baby?” Li Jin Yue asked.

“A big baby is…”

Lin Shu Yin opened the bag, “Are you guys hungry? Do you want some?”

The three of them shook their heads. They were embarrassed to eat food that her boyfriend had brought.

Lin Shu Yin, “You guys are too polite with me.”

“I can’t eat candy. I’ll share the candy with you.”

She gave each of them a handful of milk candy.

Then she took out half a pound of almond cookies and another handful of milk candy and went to deliver them to Sa Ren’s parents and brother.

Lin Shu Yin kept the rest. She would give her brother some milk candy and rice cakes tomorrow. She would eat the rest of the malt extract, milk powder, and sponge cake herself.

It was a gift from her boyfriend.

Was sweet love finally coming her way? Lin Shu Yin felt like she was developing a love brain too. She was pathetic. She felt so happy.

“You know, he bought me all these things. Shouldn’t I give him a gift too?” Lin Shu Yin opened a can of fruit.

The four of them sat on the kang and ate together.

Su Xiang Wei, “You should give him something.”

Li Jin Yue, “Shu Yin, what are you going to give him?”

Lin Shu Yin, “I don’t know. He gave me a watch. I can’t give him a watch too. And I can’t afford it.”

Sa Ren, “Give him a scarf, sister. Let’s go to the city next week and buy some yarn. You can knit him one yourself. Battalion Commander Shen will definitely love it.”

“Knit a scarf?”

Sa Ren, “Yeah, knit a scarf.”

Su Xiang Wei and Li Jin Yue agreed, “That’s a good idea. It’s sincere and practical.”

Lin Shu Yin thought for a moment, “Hmm… okay. I’ll knit a scarf.”

The original owner didn’t know how to knit, but she did. It was a painful memory. In her freshman year, she was lovesick and dated a guy.

All four girls in her dorm were dating. They bought yarn together and knitted scarves for their boyfriends. It’s not about how their boyfriends were.

She broke up with her boyfriend before she could even give him the scarf.

But since then, she learned how to knit and became quite interested in it. She had knitted sweaters, scarves, blankets, shawls, everything.

Lin Shu Yin thought she would buy a lot of yarn next week. If possible, she would knit a sweater. Just a scarf would be too simple.

Shen Guan Nan had just returned to his dormitory.

The battalion commander’s dormitory had four people. They were all unmarried.

“Guan Nan, what did you do all day? We haven’t seen you.”

His roommate asked.

On weekends, Shen Guan Nan usually just slept in bed.

Shen Guan Nan, “I went to see my girlfriend.” He said it casually.

But his three roommates were shocked, “What?”

Shen Guan Nan, “I went to see my girlfriend.” He said it again.

Roommate 1, “Where did you get a girlfriend? Didn’t you say you didn’t have one? How long have you been dating?” He asked three questions in a row.

Roommate 2, “You little rascal, you’ve been dating secretly. Come clean!”

Roommate 3, “Where is she from? Is she from our army or from outside?”

“I started dating today. She’s from the army art troupe.”

Shen Guan Nan’s dorm also had a “detective” roommate. Roommate 2 asked, “Is it the little nightingale?”

When that girl went on stage to sing, this guy kept looking at her. He was clearly interested in her.

Shen Guan Nan, “Her name is Lin Shu Yin.”

“Okay, Lin Shu Yin.”

“No, you’re moving too fast. You just started dating and that’s it. Why didn’t you tell us beforehand?” Roommate 1 said.

Roommate 3, “So, Guan Nan, did you hold your girlfriend’s hand?”

Shen Guan Nan, “Why are you asking that?”

Roommate 3 scratched his head, “I’m just curious. I’ve never held a girl’s hand. I heard that women’s hands are very soft.”

Shen Guan Nan thought about something and his ears turned red. He said, “Just find a girlfriend and hold her hand.”

“You’re right. Women are different from us men. Their hands are definitely softer than ours.” Roommate 1 said.

Roommate 3, “Have you held a girl’s hand?”

Roommate 1, “I pulled my sister’s hand when we were fighting as kids.” Then he dislocated her shoulder. His dad almost beat him to death.

“Cut it out.”

“Guan Nan, did you hold her hand or not?” Roommate 2 persisted.

Shen Guan Nan, “I don’t know. I’m going to sleep.”

Roommate 3, “He definitely didn’t hold her hand.”

Shen Guan Nan thought, he didn’t want to share his story with his wife with them.

People in love dream sweet dreams.

Shen Guan Nan had a beautiful dream. He dreamed that they were married, in their honeymoon suite…
