In the end, when they discovered how breathtakingly beautiful Captain Lu’s girlfriend was, they were all astonished.
Despite being stunned, they remained friendly and even took the initiative to ask Gu Yan if she needed anything.
Gu Yan had already grown familiar with living in the dormitory. Her review progress was moving along very fast.
Soon, it was almost New Year’s Eve.
Unfortunately… she hadn’t received any news regarding Lu Ye.
Gu Yan began to worry about him. She resorted to recounting her previous life…
Back then, Lu Ye shouldn’t have gone on any dangerous missions.
After all, prior to her rebirth and during the period she got to know him, Lu Ye didn’t undertake any risky mission at all for the entire current year.
The more she became worried, the more stressed she felt.
While Gu Yan was reading her books, she was also wondering whether she remembered the time incorrectly, or she missed something important.
On the 29th of the Lunar Calendar, Bai Changle visited again and brought a lot of New Year’s goods.
He said, “My mother asked me to send this over. She wanted to come over herself, but I stopped her. There are some dishes you can eat as soon as you heat them up. If you are worried about spoilage, just put it outside and freeze it. There are no wild cats here, so it should remain intact without getting stolen.”
Gu Yan smiled. “Thanks, Aunty.”
Bai Changle smiled awkwardly, but he didn’t tell Gu Yan about how his mother kept on complimenting her and how she kept on hinting at him when he relayed everything to his mom that day.
Hence, Bai Changle could only reveal to Xie Luan that Gu Yan was already Lu Ye’s girlfriend.
Xie Luan complained for a long while about why he was too slow and how it was entirely his fault for being single!
Bai Changle felt truly helpless.
Gu Yan thought about it and couldn’t resist asking, “Captain Bai, do you have any news regarding Ye? He said his mission would be over before the New Year. Tomorrow would be the 30th…”
Speaking of this, Bai Changle’s expression grew more serious.
He responded, “Lu Ye is probably doing a confidential mission. Not many people know the specific situation. And Gu Yan, you need to be prepared to become a wife of a special forces soldier. When he is out on missions, you must handle numerous concerns such as his safety and the loneliness you need to endure. For example…”
“I know, I’m asking too much.” Gu Yan’s face flashed with bitterness. “I’m just a bit worried about him, but I trust Lu Ye. He will definitely complete the mission flawlessly!”
“Mhm.” Bai Changle looked at Gu Yan with approval and grinned. “Am I too serious just then? Hehe, I’m actually not a stern person. Anyway don’t worry, Lu Ye will definitely come back safely. It’s the New Year now. Perhaps he would return to his home in the Southern Star Region first.”
“Mhm.” Bai Changle couldn’t bear to see Gu Yan so dejected. Hence, he immediately added, “As soon as I have news of Lu Ye, I will notify you immediately.”
“Mhm, thank you, Captain Bai.”
After Bai Changle left, Gu Yan went to pack away the New Year’s goods.
She even saw some rare southern fruits.
She couldn’t even finish all of them by herself.
