She thought for a while and said, \"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then tomorrow I’ll drive you back to my hometown, up the hill to see your future in-laws.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sounds good! I’ll wait for you at home.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They both smiled at each other as they spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The car continued driving and stopped at a slightly desolate place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The car stopped at the bottom of a small hill, and the two of them got out. Shen Que carried a basket in one hand and held Jiang Cheng’s hand with the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Be careful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s fine, I have you to hold me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng smiled sweetly and with a bit of dependence, making Shen Que’s protective instincts surge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them walked hand in hand up the hill and stopped in front of two tombstones after walking a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Que put down the things and personally cleaned up a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng stepped forward to help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After it was clean, Shen Que took a small iron basin and some yellow paper from the basket, lighting them on fire when there was no wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dad, Mom, I’m here to see you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m not here alone....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Her name is Jiang Cheng, and she will be the love of my life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Shen

so don’t worry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When we come next time, I’ll address you differently, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to Jiang Cheng’s words, Shen Que’s nose tingled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How lucky he was, to have met her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After they both finished speaking, they tidied up, ensured there were no safety hazards, and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the way back, Jiang Cheng felt like their relationship had gotten a bit closer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It truly felt different when there’s a \"blessing\"!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Que drove without returning to the large courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took Jiang Cheng to the park.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them had rare free time, so they just went on a date.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though the weather was cold, they weren’t the only ones on a date.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The unique shyness of the times was playing out in many corners of the park.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along the way, Jiang Cheng saw several couples who had been holding hands let go as soon as they saw people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She found it interesting and simply held onto Shen Que’s hand, wanting to let go when she saw people, but Shen Que held her tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng glared at Shen Que, who looked at her innocently and confidently said, \"The wind’s strong, your hands will get cold.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng burst into laughter instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a great excuse!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them tried to walk where there were fewer people, and as they walked, they reached the lakeside where many people were skating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng got interested too and simply pulled Shen Que onto the ice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sliding on the ice, pushing each other, the game couldn’t be simpler, but the joy never diminished because of its simplicity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After playing for over half an hour, Jiang Cheng was sweating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Que pulled her and said, \"Let’s go back and make an ice cart, and come back next time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng agreed with a smile, and the two left the ice, taking the opportunity to catch a movie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the dark cinema, Jiang Cheng’s hand remained in Shen Que’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She watched seriously, though she wasn’t sure if Shen Que did too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the movie ended, they finally returned to the large courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandma Shen saw them return together, with a teasing smile on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng completely ignored Grandma Shen’s teasing smile and said very frankly, \"Shen Que and I went on a date.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandma Shen showed a pained expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jiang Cheng, can’t you be a bit more reserved?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng shook her head earnestly and said, \"I can’t!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandma Shen smiled as if she was used to it, pointing inside, \"Your foreign friend is waiting for you, we can’t get a word in, go take a look.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Jiang Cheng quickly went inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside, Shen Xing was learning English with George.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Xing was holding a pencil, George said \"pencil.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Xing repeated it, then switched to an eraser, George said it again, and Shen Xing learned it, before switching again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Jiang Cheng could only sigh: The self-discipline of a top student.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze shifted to Shen Yue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm... indeed, everything about studying has nothing to do with underachievers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yue was engrossed in a comic book.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng quietly approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yue Yue, is it good?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s great—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yue suddenly turned back, seeing Jiang Cheng, a little head turned and said, \"Sister, I’m learning its drawing style, I think I can draw too!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng looked at the Shen Yue who had quickly found a reason, and touched, she said, \"Not bad, not bad, you have a bit of your sister’s demeanor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After she finished speaking, Jiang Cheng glanced at the comic book and thoughtfully said, \"If you want to draw, draw. I’ll cover your postage, we’ll submit it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yue looked a little excited but also a little scared, looking at Jiang Cheng hesitantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng said generously, \"Don’t worry, your big brother has money, after all, he’s a director, don’t save his money!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Que came in just in time to hear this, and Shen Yue looked at Shen Que with bright eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What could Shen Que do, he could only nod and say, \"Yes, listen to your Sister Jiang Cheng.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Shen Yue immediately hugged Jiang Cheng and said sweetly, \"Sister, you’re the best!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I really earn a manuscript fee, I’ll give it all to you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng held Shen Yue, looking at Shen Que with a playful glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Que shook his head helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, he could also hand over his salary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng didn’t know Shen Que’s thoughts. She let go of Shen Yue and went to George’s side, conversing with him in fluent English.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Xing listened enviously from the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sister is really amazing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder she always praises her own excellence; she truly is outstanding!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within a few minutes, Jiang Cheng and George almost finished communicating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stood up and looked at Shen Que, saying, \"George wants to move over today, let’s help him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Que naturally had no objections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Shen family, along with a few people from Li Chunxiang’s family, busily helped George settle into a nearby home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After tidying up, the group was about to leave when George suddenly spoke, \"Can Shen Xing stay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1336,"2026-06-03T05:46:21.788Z",1,"novelbin.me","68acf3639db625f2e5b60a2ee817741ec959e75c30dad5b7621a87c7e356ebc9","rich-in-the-70s-i-made-a-rugged-veteran-a-millio-chapter-178","rich-in-the-70s-i-made-a-rugged-veteran-a-millio-chapter-177",340,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frich-in-the-70s-i-made-a-rugged-veteran-a-millio-cover.jpg"]
