A whirlwind marriage with a high-ranking official: Lights out, don't force me to take the initi

Su Feng specifically requested this private room from the logistics department, not for any farewell purpose.

The application was submitted under the pretext of a post-battle exchange of experiences between the commanders of both sides in the exercise.

Actually, I just wanted to treat Lu Weidong to a meal alone.

For that sentence he said to himself that day in front of the tent.

"Don't let me down."

Also, Lu Weidong secretly helped him out behind the scenes.

When Zhou Qiwen called Su Feng to the command post that day and told him the results of the investigation, he casually remarked:

"Actually, even if Lu Weidong hadn't said it, I would still believe you, kid."

"Huh?" Su Feng was taken aback.

Zhou Qiwen told him what Lu Weidong had said.

In this situation, whether or not there is a guarantee or not is of little significance to the organization.

The seriousness of discipline will not be affected by one person's words, and the final conclusion will not be affected.

Lu Weidong certainly knew.

But he still spoke up.

He spoke on Su Feng's behalf.

He knew that if Su Feng were to be sidelined because of family matters at this time, it would be a disservice to a resolute, upright soldier like himself who had risked his life to prove his innocence.

That's so unfair.

It took Su Feng a long time to process this.

He had long been mentally prepared that no one would stand up for him, and some might even be eager to sever ties.

But someone actually stepped forward—it was Lu Weidong.

From childhood to adulthood, the power of the Su family has been both his protection and his shackles.

It seems that his background allowed him to have a smooth life, enabling him to obtain things that others could only dream of without much effort.

But he would rather not have it.

His hard-earned achievements were easily erased by the phrase "It's not even his family's business."

His classmates always looked at him with a certain distance in their eyes.

He thought this was the fate of families with high-ranking officials, and that this was the only way.

Until he met Lu Weidong at the military academy.

"Lu Weidong's father is the commander of a military region."

"Awesome, but seems a bit inferior to Su Feng's dad?"

"Does it matter if he's bad or not? Lu Weidong is definitely not bad. Look at his grades, he earned them all through his own hard work. He was the top student in our class to get in."

"I saw his physical fitness test results that day, and he's truly extraordinary..."

Not a single person, not a single word, questioned Lu Weidong in the discussions among his military academy classmates.

It turns out that personal effort really can overcome one's background.

Looking at the man who also came from a high-ranking official background, a crazy idea popped into Su Feng's head.

He wanted to surpass Lu Weidong and show everyone that he could do it too.

Later... he was indeed number one in everything, excelling in everything.

Why do people still look at him and question him even though he has tried so hard?

Only later did he realize that they were not just questioning him personally, but rather the underlying problem of the "Su family's" improper conduct.

No matter how hard he tried, it was all in vain.

"Damn it," Su Feng cursed inwardly.

He somewhat resented his family and complained about the unfairness of fate.

As a result, Lu Weidong was also affected.

Just as others might envy the Su family's illustrious background, he envied Lu Weidong's clean and honest family.

The Lu family and the Su family, both high-ranking official families, each possessed their own distinct characteristics.

It's just clean.

The other one, however, could never be cleaned properly.

As Ye Wenxi listened to Lu Weidong recount their years at military academy, she gradually came to understand.

So that's how it is...

Through Su Feng's desperate struggle, Lu Weidong saw the inner turmoil behind his actions.

She didn't find it strange.

Lu Weidong is indeed like that; he can see through appearances to the essence. He is keen and observant, whether it's about his work, himself, or Su Feng.

Lu Weidong is also an upright person.

He couldn't bear to see Su Feng get involved in something unrelated to himself and be abandoned at the most crucial moment.

This is his recognition of Su Feng as a soldier, and his acceptance of his personal character, regardless of family ties.

Just when Ye Wenxi thought the two were about to become friends in adversity.

"I never imagined you could help him to this extent."

"I did help him, but that doesn't stop me from disliking him," Lu Weidong suddenly said.

Ye Wenxi: "......."

She didn't dare ask why, afraid of getting into trouble.

"Here, the sweet and sour pork won't taste good when it gets cold." Ye Wenxi put a piece on Lu Weidong's plate.

"Is he going back in a couple of days?"

Lu Weidong snorted.

"uncertain."

"I might have to stay here permanently from now on."

"Huh? Why?" Ye Wenxi stopped eating the sweet and sour pork that was almost in her mouth.

Lu Weidong smiled and kept everyone in suspense.

"I'll let you know once I've confirmed it."

"But why do you seem quite happy to me?" Ye Wenxi asked, puzzled.

"Aren't you annoyed by him?"

Lu Weidong couldn't help but laugh as he ate.

"Yes, that's why I'm happy."

"what?"

Ye Wenxi was confused by his words, and her brows furrowed.

But guessing it was probably a personnel arrangement within the military, she never asked too many questions about such matters.

The two of them ate a table full of food, and even though they were stuffed, they couldn't finish it all.

We packed several boxes, eating and taking some home, returning with a full load.

Ye Wenxi was a little embarrassed.

Lu Weidong burped, looking relieved and satisfied.

"Wei Dong..." Ye Wenxi said as they walked back.

"I... want to discuss something with you."

"What is it?"

"I want to go to Yunnan to see Xiao Ding and the others," Ye Wenxi said softly.

"I knew it. You wouldn't feel at ease if you didn't go and check."

"That's not what we're discussing." Ye Wenxi took a deep breath.

"Hmm?" Lu Weidong turned to look at her.

"Can you come with me?" Ye Wenxi asked a little shyly.

"I want to go on our honeymoon together..." she pouted, looking both expectant and shy.

"What are you talking about?" Lu Weidong frowned.

"A honeymoon is... a wedding trip!"

She pouted, with a hint of coquettishness:

"Aside from going to the county town together, we haven't been anywhere else."

Lu Weidong was stunned for a moment, realizing that he hadn't spent enough time with Ye Wenxi.

I went to the county town with her for two days...

"Okay," Lu Weidong readily agreed.

"Really?" Ye Wenxi's eyes widened.

"Hmm, that should be fine."

In fact, as early as when the battle began in Yunnan, all military regions across the country were closely monitoring and sharing information with the front lines in real time.

As key officers and soldiers of the main military region, they should pay attention to this matter immediately.

Real-world experience is the best learning opportunity.

For commanders, post-battle debriefing, communication, learning, and experience summarization are routine.

Their military region had mentioned this matter before.

The military region leadership had mentioned this matter several times at meetings, but at that time the exercise was imminent.

When to go and who to go has not been decided yet.

Lu Weidong told Ye Wenxi about this.

"I'll try to get a business trip to Yunnan to exchange practical combat experience." He looked at her, "and go with you to see Ding Jiahe and Wang Hao."

"And while we're at it, let's...go on our honeymoon."

Ye Wenxi was stunned for two seconds. She hadn't really had any hope; she was just thinking of using a cutesy way of saying it.

Then came immense joy.

"Yay!~~~"

Ye Wenxi let go of his hand, happily sprinted forward for a while, and then quickly ran back.

"Yay! Yay! Yay! Yay!"

She bounced around Lu Weidong like a little rabbit, jumping happily.

Lu Weidong smiled so hard his eyes crinkled when he saw her childlike appearance.
