1970s: Transmigrated into a cannon fodder female supporting character in a lucky koi novel!

Aunt Wen and her younger sister praised Wen Li profusely.

Wen Li used to be spoiled by Song Yu and couldn't do anything, but now she can cook and be presentable in public, making everyone look at her with new eyes.

The family chatted at home for a while, and then Wenli went shopping with her two younger sisters.

Haishi was much more developed than other cities at that time; the city had electricity, and state-run stores even had elevators.

These things, which are common in modern times, are quite rare in this era. Wen Wan and Jiang Jiaojiao went up and down the elevator several times before they were satisfied.

Wen Li patiently waited until they had had enough fun before taking the two inside. Once they started shopping, they couldn't stop and bought gifts for the whole family before finally stopping.

The three sisters were still having a great time shopping even as it was getting dark, and only went home with Wen Xu when Wen Xu and his friends came looking for them.

After dinner, the family drove home.

Song Yu gently stroked Wen Li's head, "Your uncles know you're back. They'll take you to their house after the New Year; they miss you very much!"

When do my uncles and his family get their holiday?

"Soon, the day after tomorrow!"

With only three days left until the Lunar New Year, neither Song Yu nor Wen Guodong had time.

The task of buying New Year's goods fell to Wen Li and her two siblings.

Lu Zechuan finally arrived in Haishi before the New Year, and Wen Xu and Wen Li went to the train station to pick him up.

The two hadn't seen each other for months, and they couldn't bear to look away from each other.

Wen Xu clicked his tongue and stood in the middle, blocking Lu Zechuan's view.

"That's enough! You two aren't even married yet!"

Lu Zechuan reluctantly withdrew his gaze. When he got into the car, He Wenli, who was quite cunning, sat in the back seat.

The two ignored Wen Xu, who was quite angry, and started talking about their own situations.

The day after tomorrow is Chinese New Year, and Wen Xu arranged for Lu Zechuan to stay at his home and sleep in the same room with him.

The two were good brothers, and no one would gossip if they lived together.

Back home, Wen Li immediately pulled Lu Zechuan into her room.

As soon as the door closed, Lu Zechuan hugged Wen Li tightly in his arms.

I miss you so much!

"I miss you too. Why do you look so haggard?"

"I just came back from a mission and haven't had much rest!"

Wen Li's eyes were full of concern. "Then let's go get something to eat and rest for a while?"

Lu Zechuan cheekily pulled the person into his arms again, "Just a little longer!"

Wen Li rested her head on Lu Zechuan's chest, feeling his rapidly beating heart, and her own heart began to beat rapidly as well.

"How come I never realized you were so clingy before?"

"Yes, I want to be with you forever, I wish we could never be apart!"

Wen Li chuckled. Lu Zechuan had really evolved; he was spouting nice words as if they were free.

"Are you prepared for your future father-in-law's test?"

"Always be prepared!"

Lu Zechuan's deep voice reached Wen Li's ears, and his warm breath pattered on her face, instantly causing a blush to spread across her cheeks.

The atmosphere grew increasingly ambiguous. Wen Li took a deep breath, and the clean and pleasant scent of soap pods wafted into her nostrils. Wen Li couldn't resist pinching his well-defined abs twice.

Lu Zechuan hissed softly, grasping Wen Li's mischievous little hand. "Don't move!"

Wen Li also noticed the abnormality and felt that he was gradually reacting in a certain place, and her cheeks instantly turned red.

The two exchanged a glance, then Lu Zechuan shyly looked away, saying, "I'm going to the restroom!"

Wen Li stared at his retreating figure for two seconds, then couldn't help but burst out laughing. Lu Zechuan was just too innocent!

Lu Zechuan entered the restroom, looked down, and cursed himself for being a bastard at this time...

He took two deep breaths, washed his face with cold water, and waited until he was completely calm before leaving the bathroom.

Wen Xu had already cooked the noodles. "I thought you'd fallen into the toilet!"

Lu Zechuan felt a little guilty, but he remained calm and started eating heartily.

Wen Li waited until the blush on her face subsided before going downstairs.

"Where's Yangyang?"

"I sent him to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy soy sauce; he'll be back soon!"

After Lu Zechuan finished eating, Wen Xu took him to his room to settle in. Wen Xu's room was opposite Wen Li's room, so it wouldn't be crowded for the two of them.

Wen Guodong and Song Yu returned home as soon as they got off work.

Wen Li was cooking in the kitchen when Song Yu came in with an apron.

"Has the person arrived?"

"Yeah, he didn't rest well on the train, he's resting in my brother's room, I'll go call him!"

Song Yu took the spatula from Wen Li. "Let him rest! We can call him when it's time to eat!"

While the mother and daughter were talking, Lu Zechuan had already come downstairs.

In the living room

Lu Zechuan stood straight in front of Wen Guodong and then gave Wen Guodong a military salute.

"Hello, Uncle. My name is Lu Zechuan. I serve in the Northwest Military Region and am currently a battalion commander. I'm also Wen Li's girlfriend. This is our first meeting, so please take good care of me!"

Wen Guodong sized up Lu Zechuan with an unfriendly look. He was already tall, half a head taller than Wen's father. Even though Wen's father deliberately put on a stern face, he couldn't suppress Lu Zechuan's imposing aura.

Wen Xu crossed his arms, looking on with amusement, showing no intention of helping his brother.

Wen Yang didn't dare to get close, mainly because every time his father looked at someone with that kind of gaze, that person was sure to be punished.

Wen Guodong had heard his grandfather mention Lu Zechuan several times before, and his grandfather always spoke highly of him. Now it seems that Lu Zechuan is indeed quite good-looking.

Of course, this is in the case of a soldier, but the thought of him abducting his daughter made Wen Guodong feel terrible no matter how he looked at it.

Wen Guodong sat down first, then raised his hand, "Sit!"

Lu Zechuan sat down on the left chair with neither arrogance nor servility, and then tactfully poured Wen Guodong a cup of tea.

"You did an excellent job on that mission at Red Star Commune!"

"Protecting state secrets is the duty of soldiers!"

Then the two began to discuss that mission, and when they talked about their professional fields, they found themselves getting along very well.

Wen Li and Song Yu exchanged a glance, both seeing helplessness in each other's eyes.

"Your dad can't break that habit; he wants to test any promising young talent he sees!"

"Does that prove Dad approves of Lu Zechuan?"

"My dear, you need to understand that his success in his career is just one of his strengths. It's the two of you who will be living your lives together. A loving and caring partner is far happier than someone who excels in their career!"

The Wen family is not short of money and power; Song Yu only hopes that Wen Li will marry someone who understands and cares for her.

"Mom, can't other people have both?"

Song Yu gently tapped Wen Li's forehead. As a soldier, Lu Zechuan was away from home most of the year. If Wen Li were to be with him, they would face a situation of being apart for long periods of time.

"Is he really that great? He'd rather you stay away from your parents than be with him?"

"I also hate to leave Mom. I'll come back to see you often in the future, or you could retire early and live with us, okay?"

"You're talking nonsense! Mom won't be able to retire for at least another ten years!"

People are having children early these days; Song Yu is only forty-one years old this year.

Retirement is still a long way off!
