Chapter 501 - 496: Light Bulb

Lin Yinghui was surprised by Mei Lang Jun’s judgment ability, and he nodded without denying it, "Sort of."

"Then you have to be careful. Wang Xiangyang is quite a rogue. He often bullies girls. Make sure your partner is careful."

"Yeah, we will be careful."

"But don’t worry, now that you’ve met me, even if he has the guts of eight men, he wouldn’t dare cause you trouble."

With Mei Lang Jun’s words, Mu Qing felt quite relieved. She didn’t expect that Ah Hui knew people from the Capital City, and was even so close with them.

She wondered if their parents would change their opinion of Ah Hui after knowing this.

Lin Wan had been with her godparents early in the morning to greet guests, and her brother and Mu Qing just arrived after they’d sent off a wave of guests.

Liang Qian warmly chatted with Mu Qing upon meeting her and learned that she was in the military.

Mei Shuqing was pleased. Remarking on the coincidence, their family was somehow connected with the military.

Mei Shuqing was enthusiastic about anyone in the military, so he supported Lin Yinghui and Mu Qing’s relationship.

Mei Lang Jun, who had connections in the Central Plains Unit, heard that Mu Qing was recently recruited as a communications officer this year. He took note internally.

Their unit happened to need two communications officers, and it would be great to officially promote this junior sister-in-law.

Mei Lang Jun’s thoughts were unknown to Mu Qing and Lin Yinghui at this time, which later resulted in less resistance to their relationship.

Lin Wan hadn’t seen Mu Qing for a long time, so she asked her a few questions about life in the military camp.

"Sister Mu Qing, when do you all plan to return?"

"I only have a ten-day vacation, and today is already the third day."

"Tomorrow, Ai Yi is taking me to climb the Great Wall. Are you and brother going?"

"Sure, let’s go together."

"Xiao Wan, count me in too. If you all leave, I won’t have much to do at home. It’s perfect to join you for some fun." Mei Lang Jun chimed in from the side.

"Brother Junzi, just don’t regret it, okay?"

"I’ve climbed steep peaks; the Great Wall is just a minor thing." Mei Lang Jun completely misunderstood.

Lin Wan secretly chuckled beside him, without making much explanation.

The family had just finished lunch, and guests arrived at home. People came and went all afternoon, with many guests stopping by. The siblings accompanied their godparents all day long entertaining them.

It wasn’t until after dinner, when her brother took Sister Mu Qing to the hotel, that it finally quieted down.

Her godmother initially wanted Mu Qing to stay, but there were no rooms left at home. She thought about having Ah Hui and Junzi squeeze together for a few nights.

Sister Mu Qing felt uncomfortable, given that they weren’t married yet, staying at someone else’s house seemed inappropriate. So she kindly turned down Liang Qian’s offer.

Mu Qing thought the private hotel seemed quite safe and didn’t let Lin Yinghui go with her.

Lin Yinghui was still uneasy and insisted on accompanying her at night.

This mutual concern between the couple was something Liang Qian felt awkward commenting on, fearing they might make mistakes. But she just let them be.

At night, Lin Wan lay in bed, unable to sleep, waiting for Han Yi.

The task should be over today; she wondered where he was returning from. At this hour, there were no cars, and she worried about how he would come back alone.

The more Lin Wan thought about it, the more anxious she felt. Unable to sleep, she got up, threw on a coat, didn’t turn on the light, and leaned against the window, watching the road outside.

Lin Wan wasn’t sure how long she had been there, lying by the window, just when her eyes started to feel heavy.

Her room door opened.

Lin Wan saw Han Yi and was surprised, "How come I didn’t see you?"

"You were about to drool in your sleep. I watched you from outside the window for a long time, and you didn’t even notice me, silly girl." Han Yi chuckled affectionately, walked to her side, touched her cold hands, and quickly placed them under his armpit to warm them up, "Don’t wait like this for me next time, okay?"

"I was worried about you, couldn’t sleep."

"No need to worry, I have my own judgment. If I say I’ll come back, I definitely will."

"It’s so late, with no cars, how did you get back on your own?"

"A comrade drove me back. He lives in the courtyard, in South Courtyard. We happen to be on the same road."

"Oh," Lin Wan nodded. Her worry instantly eased. "How did you come in? I didn’t hear a sound."

"Last time I came back, godmother gave me a house key."

Lin Wan rolled her eyes internally. Her godmother didn’t even let her know. She was waiting to open the door for Han Yi at night.

"It’s already midnight. Hurry up and sleep."

"Hmm, help me warm the bed, it’s so cold." Lin Wan held onto Han Yi, acting spoiled and unwilling to let go.

Han Yi chuckled, directly taking off the overcoats on both of them, and snuggled down with Lin Wan like conjoined twins onto the bed.

"It’s starting to snow outside, are we still going to the Great Wall tomorrow?"

"Yes, it’s more fun when it’s snowing."

"Alright, after climbing the Great Wall, where else would you like to go?"

"Anywhere is fine as long as I’m with you."

"It’s cold when it snows. Let’s go out all day tomorrow and head home the day after. I’ll stick with you, let’s not get out of bed."

Lin Wan, amused and annoyed, playfully punched Han Yi, "Auntie is home, you may not be afraid of embarrassment, but I am."

Han Yi sighed softly and said, "Then let’s hurry home. It’s more comfortable at home, and we can do whatever we want."

"Hmm, I miss my daughter."

"I miss her too, but I miss you even more." Han Yi said, quickly stealing a kiss on Lin Wan’s cheek.

"Stop it, let’s sleep."

"Don’t stop, Wan, let’s have some fun, it’s cold outside, let’s warm up then sleep comfortably."

"You rogue, where do you come up with this nonsense?" Lin Wan shyly swatted his back twice but didn’t reject Han Yi’s suggestion.

After finally being together, the two certainly wouldn’t miss out on a wonderful moment.

The next day, when they got up, it was indeed a field of white outside.

Luckily, the snow had stopped by morning, and no one was surprised to see Han Yi come out of the room.

Everyone in the family knew he would come back last night.

After preparing breakfast, Liang Qian went out with Mei Shuqing to visit veterans and stopped by other places; they left even more hurriedly than everyone else.

As the three were having breakfast, the brother arrived with Sister Mu Qing.

It was Mu Qing’s first time meeting Lin Wan’s love, she greeted Han Yi politely and then said to Lin Wan, "Xiao Wan, you’re so lucky. Your man is great; handsome and an officer too."

Lin Wan raised an eyebrow, "Isn’t my brother great? Handsome and a civil servant. When you have kids, they’ll be second-generation officials."

Mu Qing’s face flushed red and she pinched Lin Wan, saying, "Your brother is great, oh, if it weren’t for me, we should have gotten married already."

The snow in the Capital City isn’t as heavy as in S City, but the cold wind is harsh.

Once outside, Lin Wan felt hesitant. Plans had been made days in advance, so backing out wasn’t an option now.

"Don’t worry, my classmate is coming with us today, he has a car."

"One car isn’t enough, we have more people, wait, I’ll get another car." Mei Lang Jun said as he went out the door.

Soon, both cars were parked in front of their house.

The one leading wore a stylish fur-collar leather jacket. Lin Wan glanced at Han Yi, signaling, how do you have such a trendy classmate?

Han Yi laughed and pulled her to Liao Ye, saying, "This is my comrade and current classmate, Liao Ye, this is my wife, Lin Wan."

"Hello, Saozi, I recognize you, always seen your photo in the dorm," Liao Ye said, finishing with a whistle to Han Yi.

Han Yi didn’t blush, instructed his brother and Mu Qing to get in the rear car with Mei Lang Jun, and took Lin Wan on Liao Ye’s car.

The two cars, one after the other, went to the guesthouse where Shi Lan stayed, picked up the couple, and headed towards the Great Wall. Luckily, the snow hadn’t frozen the roads, so driving was smooth.

Aside from the strong wind, everyone was having a lot of fun. Lin Wan ran around with her camera, helping them take photos.

When it was Lin Wan and Han Yi’s turn for a photo, it was Sister Mu Qing who helped take the picture.

Watching the three couples ahead, Mei Lang Jun instantly understood what Lin Wan meant yesterday.

Turns out he was the only single person. He glanced at Liao Ye beside him and smiled, feeling much better. Not only was he the one feeling left out.

"Liaozi, do you feel like we came to be abused today?"

"Damn it, today I feel like the unlucky one, just here to drive for them."

Mei Lang Jun enthusiastically patted his shoulder, "Feels like being duped. Well, don’t get disheartened, let’s make them pay for lunch, we’ll feast on them."

"Bro, we’re allies now."

"Definitely."

The joyful day ended with Liao Ye and Mei Lang Jun indulgently eating and drinking.
