On the night the Shanghai socialite accompanied the military officer, he broke his vow.

Chapter 26 You'll Always Be My Young Lady
"My pursuit of you and my desire to marry you are both genuine."

Fu Sinian is a straight man, without many fancy thoughts, and he makes no attempt to hide his feelings for Song Jinyue.

In his dictionary, if you want something, you should actively strive for it.

Regardless of the outcome, I only seek to follow my heart.

For the past twenty-seven years, he has devoted himself to making achievements and never considered matters of the heart.

His family, as well as his leaders and comrades in the army, were all very anxious about his marriage and urged him to get married as soon as possible.

But he is not a person who will settle for less; he will not just find someone to spend his life with because of their nagging and urging.

If you can't find someone, then stay single.

Fu Sinian had originally planned to live out his days alone, but unexpectedly, Song Jinyue entered his world like a ray of light.

She was dashing, unique, intelligent, brave, and beautiful; every single one of these qualities was fatally attractive to Fu Sinian.

From the moment he first saw her, all his previous plans went awry.

The moment Fu Sinian's heartbeat was disrupted by the sight of Song Jinyue, he knew that the person he wanted was her.

Fu Sinian never expected that after being single for so many years, he would finally fall for a girl who was seven years younger than him.

After learning yesterday that Song Jinyue had come to Beijing to find her fiancé, he became irritable and depressed, and felt a tightness in his chest.

He strictly adheres to military regulations during his missions and never drinks alcohol, but last night he drank alone in silence.

Although his mission in Beijing was completed yesterday, it wasn't considered finished until the report was submitted.

He was drunk, but his mind was still clear. Last night, Fu Sinian sat on the chair by the window all night.

He couldn't bring himself to ruin the happiness Song Jinyue had already achieved, so he could only silently wish her well and suppress his feelings for her deepest within his heart.

He knew that time would heal all wounds.

Fu Sinian thought he could control his emotions well, but when he heard the words "Peking University" from his mother, he finally couldn't sit still.

Go there; perhaps you'll see her again.

Even just a glimpse from afar would be enough.

At this moment, Fu Sinian's urge to see Song Jinyue reached its peak.

He just didn't expect that this trip to Peking University would bring such an unexpected gain. It turned out that she came to Beijing to find Li Wenzhu to annul the engagement.

In an instant, the frustration in my heart was replaced by joy.

Since she was unmarried, he naturally wanted to fight for her and take the opportunity to express his feelings to her.

He will accept whatever the outcome.

Song Jinyue's brain suddenly shut down, automatically blocking out all sounds around her, with only Fu Sinian's words echoing in her ears again and again, exceptionally clear.

"You...you're not kidding? What you just said was true? But we've only met once."

Song Jinyue looked up at Fu Sinian, trying to find any trace of his teasing on his face.

However, that wasn't the case; Fu Sinian's expression was incredibly serious and sincere.

"I never believed in love at first sight before, but after meeting you, I do."

Staring intently into his deep, affectionate peach blossom eyes, and hearing the explicit words uttered by him, Song Jinyue's heart pounded wildly.

Being confessed to face-to-face by such a handsome guy with striking features would make anyone nervous and excited!

In the real world, Song Jinyue is a lifelong single, having never been in a relationship. Yesterday, after meeting Fu Sinian, she joked that if she could have a romance like that in the book, it would be a worthwhile trip. And today, Fu Sinian confessed his feelings to her?!
"Every word I just said is truer than gold."

Fu Sinian's words pulled Song Jinyue back from her reverie.

She swallowed hard and looked the man in front of her up and down again. If she were to have a relationship with Fu Sinian, it seemed... not so bad?
She's someone who lives for the moment; as long as the process brings her joy, she doesn't care about the outcome.

Song Jinyue didn't mince words; she followed her heart and laid out all the facts.

“Li Wenzhu is right. I am a capitalist’s daughter. In the current turbulent times, if you are with me, you may be affected, and it may even affect your future promotion.”

Fu Sinian replied without hesitation, "Compared to you, these things are not important."

Whether he is promoted or demoted, he will do his best to serve the country.

Song Jinyue continued, "You may not care, but what about your family? With a capitalist's daughter as your daughter-in-law, your parents will probably be affected too, and they'll have a lot of headaches to deal with in the future."

"They'd love for me to get married. Don't worry, the Fu family still has the ability to protect itself in Beijing."

Fu Sinian didn't need to think at all; he directly dispelled Song Jinyue's concerns.

"I can't cook, and the housework was always done by a nanny. If we were together..."

Before Song Jinyue could finish speaking, Fu Sinian interrupted and answered first.

"You don't need to worry about that. I'll take care of the housework, and you can keep your salary. You'll stay the same as before. You don't need to force yourself to make any changes for me."

"No matter how turbulent the situation may become in the future, you will always be my young lady."

Song Jinyue gives Fu Sinian's answer a perfect score of 100.

Looking at the tall, handsome man in front of her, she smiled and said, "I've said everything I wanted to say. If you can accept all of this, then we can give it a try."

"You've finished speaking, it's my turn."

Fu Sinian introduced himself to Song Jinyue.

"I'm twenty-seven this year, seven years older than you. The age difference is quite large. If you mind..."

"I don't mind. Isn't it said that older men are more caring?"

Hearing that she didn't mind that he was seven years older than her, Fu Sinian's serious expression did not relax at all.

He pursed his lips and said in a deep voice, "I was injured during a mission two years ago. The doctor said I would have some difficulty conceiving and might never have my own child in this lifetime."

Fu Sinian didn't think much of it before, but now that he has met the girl he wants to protect for the rest of his life, he is afraid that this matter will become the last obstacle between them.

After he finished speaking, he lowered his eyelids, not daring to look at the expression on Song Jinyue's face, and had already made the worst-case scenario plan in his heart.

Song Jinyue's eyes lit up.

I'll do it!

Is there such a good thing?
Broad shoulders, narrow waist, handsome appearance, handing over her salary, doing all the housework, and having no children—these conditions are practically tailor-made for her!

Great, she'll take this man!
“It’s okay. I’m not ready to be a mother right now anyway. If we want a child in the future, we can adopt one.”

Upon hearing this, Fu Sinian suddenly looked up at her, and the moment he met her bright, moist almond-shaped eyes, the heavy weight in his chest finally lifted.

His expression suddenly became solemn, and he stood up straight, raising his right hand in the highest salute befitting a soldier.

"Report! Fu Sinian, commander of the 772nd Air Regiment, has applied to marry Comrade Song Jinyue. Please approve!"
