Chapter 1298: How Is Your Relationship with Your Partner Going?
Although someone was already waiting for the bus ahead, they had still arrived early.
As soon as they approached, someone took the initiative to greet them: "Company Commander Fu, are you heading back to the city?"
Fu Yan Cheng smiled and nodded to that person: "Yes, I'm taking my wife back to handle some matters."
After speaking, he introduced the person to Liu Chuxue: "This is Liu Xiaoyuan, the wife of Company Commander Zhang."
Liu Chuxue recognized the woman at a glance; previously, when Fu Yan Cheng was injured, this woman's fiancé's family had chased her down to scold her, yet she had unexpectedly married into the military dependents' compound: "Hello."
Liu Xiaoyuan smiled at Liu Chuxue: "Hello, I've long heard that Company Commander Fu's wife is beautiful; today I finally get to see her."
After speaking, she continued: "Sister-in-law, my home is just behind yours; let's visit each other more often when we have time."
Liu Chuxue nodded with a smile but did not reply.
To be honest, she wanted some private space and did not want family members coming and going all day, especially since the translation materials she had just received had only just begun.
While they were talking, they heard someone else greet Fu Yan Cheng.
Liu Chuxue turned to look, but did not recognize the person.
When Fu Yan Cheng turned around, he whispered to her: "This is Ding Runping's husband."
Upon hearing him say this, Liu Chuxue understood.
After all, the surname Ding naturally related to his rumored ex-girlfriend; knowing that woman's cousin worked at the supply point, the connection clicked.
Before long, the bus arrived, and Fu Yan Cheng directly chose a seat in the middle.
Originally, Fu Yan Cheng had wanted Liu Chuxue to sit on the inside while he sat on the outside.
But Liu Chuxue insisted on taking the outside seat herself.
The reason she wanted to sit on the outside was that last time they took the bus, a young woman had approached and asked the soldiers to give up their seats; you are not seventy or eighty years old, yet once the request was made, the soldiers could hardly refuse.
Today, she deliberately sat on the outside to avoid anyone coming over to morally blackmail her.
However, this time she had clearly worried unnecessarily, as they arrived smoothly in the city.
The two transferred to a city bus and returned first to their own small home.
It was only shortly after they arrived home that they heard someone knocking on the door.
Fu Yan Cheng opened the door and saw Du Juan: "Cousin, why have you come over?"
Du Juan smiled and greeted them: "Luckily you are here; otherwise I would have had to keep waiting here."
Liu Chuxue also came out of the courtyard at that moment: "Du Juan?"
Du Juan smiled and ran forward: "Uncle and Aunt called you, but couldn't find you; they guessed you took the bus back to the city, so they sent me over to run this errand."
"What happened?"
Du Juan, fearing she might worry, quickly explained: "It's just that little cousin is over fifty days old, so Uncle and Aunt wanted the whole family to gather tonight; I received the call at noon and simply took leave this afternoon."
"When I got there, I found I couldn't reach you, so I came over."
After speaking, she looked around: "Cousin, where is Zhuifeng?"
Liu Chuxue smiled: "Zhuifeng is at the military dependents' compound; since we took the shuttle bus back, there was no way to bring him."
Upon hearing this, Du Juan grew anxious: "Then what will he eat while you are back?"
Liu Chuxue pulled her inside: "I prepared a large basin of water for him; as for food, your cousin-in-law asked his comrade-in-arms to look after him."
Hearing that someone was taking care of him, Du Juan said: "That's fine; I haven't seen Zhuifeng in a long time and actually miss him a bit."
Liu Chuxue smiled: "Next time you have a day off, you can go to the dependents' compound to see him; it's also a good chance to get to know the place."
Upon hearing this, Du Juan's eyes lit up: "Can I really go?"
Seeing her like this, Liu Chuxue smiled: "Of course you can; by the way, how is your relationship with your partner going?"
