Kid, you aren’t being fair, getting married———\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mid-sentence, Chen Dayong stopped speaking, looking at the retreating step of Shen Que’s leg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man over 1.8 meters tall suddenly had wet eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s up with your leg?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s lame, nothing major.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Que said indifferently, but Chen Dayong felt a wave of sadness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes! As long as you came back alive, a real man can achieve anything with effort.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suppressing the sadness in his heart, Chen Dayong steered away from the topic of legs, returning to the subject of the radio ticket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s not for marriage, it’s just that I’m starting to date someone. The girl gave me a pen, and I’d like to give her a radio.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Dayong grinned widely upon hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amused that Shen Que could actually date!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And grinning because... giving a girl a radio?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shen Que, take some advice from me. While a radio is nice, a girl may not necessarily like it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Give girls a red scarf or some snow cream; my wife used to love those.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Que listened attentively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m sure my girlfriend will like the radio, but you have a point too. I could just buy both, there’s no rule that says I can only give one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Dayong thought about it and realized he might be right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright then! I’ll go get you the ticket, wait a moment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Que responded with an ’mm,’ and waited outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later, an uncertain voice sounded behind Shen Que.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shen Que?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Que turned around and saw Lin Chengyuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning from patrol, Lin Chengyuan couldn’t help but wonder: could Shen Que be joining the security department?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlikely!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his limp, it’s impossible for him to join.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chengyuan looked at Shen Que and asked, \"Why are you here?
