Two days later, the train arrived in the evening in Southern Province where the troops were located.

Shi Qingqian looked at the unfamiliar scenery outside the window, feeling both nervous and expectant.

She raised her hand to take down the suitcase, and Zhao Min suddenly came over to help her.

Handing the suitcase to Shi Qingqian, Zhao Min said with a complicated look in his eyes: "Comrade Shi, have a safe journey. I hope we will have the chance to see each other again in the future."

Shi Qingqian nodded slightly and responded politely, "Thank you, and I wish you all the best." After that, she hurried off the train.

As soon as Shi Qingqian got off the train, she saw Xu Huaian coming to pick her up not far away.

Xu Huaian stood tall and straight, dressed in military uniform, his eyes full of anticipation and joy.

As soon as he saw Shi Qingqian, he strode towards her.

"Qianqian!" Xu Huaian's voice was filled with excitement and tenderness.

Shi Qingqian looked at her husband whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and her eyes instantly became moist.

"Huaian." She called softly, her voice full of longing.

Xu Huaian took the suitcase from Shi Qingqian's hand and held her hand tightly.

"Thank you for your hard work along the way," Xu Huaian looked at Shi Qingqian's slightly tired face, his heart full of heartache.

Shi Qingqian shook her head. "It's not hard. I'm glad to see you."

The two walked side by side, as if everything around them had become quiet, and they shared with each other the details of their lives during this period.

Walking out of the train station, Wang Jianguo saw them coming out and quickly stepped forward to greet them, "Hello sister-in-law, my name is Wang Jianguo, and I am the commander's correspondent."

"Hello, Comrade Wang," Shi Qingqian responded with a smile.

Wang Jianguo looked at Shi Qingqian smiling at him and immediately scratched his head embarrassedly.

One time, he accidentally saw the photo that Xu Huaian kept in his chest pocket.

I didn’t expect that my sister-in-law is much prettier in person than in the photo.

Seeing him like that, Xu Huaian suddenly felt jealous and stuffed the suitcase in his hand into Wang Jianguo's hands.

"Why are you so silly? Put your luggage in the car quickly."

Shi Qingqian looked at Wang Jianguo's honest and cute appearance and couldn't help but find it interesting: "Comrade Wang, thank you for your help."

Wang Jianguo felt even more embarrassed after hearing what Shi Qingqian said, and quickly took the suitcase. "It's not a bother, sister-in-law. This is what I should do."

Xu Huaian looked at Wang Jianguo's back, still feeling jealous. He turned to look at Shi Qingqian, a hint of grievance in his eyes: "Why are you so polite to him?"

Shi Qingqian looked at Xu Huaian's jealous expression and felt both angry and amused: "He helped me with my luggage, so of course I have to be polite."

"I got the box too."

Shi Qingqian reached out and gently pinched the soft flesh on his waist: "Thank you, Comrade Xu Huaian."

Xu Huaian rubbed the place where he was pinched: Well... satisfied.

He held Shi Qingqian's hand and stroked it gently: "You bully me."

Shi Qingqian smiled and rolled her eyes at him, "Who told you to be jealous?"

At this time, Wang Jianguo had already put away his luggage and walked over to open the car door: "Captain, sister-in-law, please get in the car."

Xu Huaian let Shi Qingqian get in the car first, and then he got in too.

Wang Jianguo closed the car door and sat in the driver's seat. The car started slowly and drove towards the troops.

In the car, Xu Huaian kept holding Shi Qingqian's hand tightly, as if he was afraid that she would leave again.

Shi Qingqian pushed him, but Xu Huaian held on even tighter.

"Where will I stay later?"

Xu Huaian said, "Don't worry, I've arranged everything. We'll live in the military's family compound. I've applied for an apartment, and it's already been cleaned. We'll be able to move in right away when you arrive."

Shi Qingqian nodded, thinking that she was going to stay in a guesthouse.

After driving for about an hour and a half, they finally arrived at the military base.

Shi Qingqian looked outside through the car window and saw the soldiers standing guard at the gate with straight postures and firm and sharp eyes. Their solemn uniforms and solemn expressions made people instantly feel the seriousness and solemnity of the army.

The car slowly drove towards the gate, and the soldier on guard immediately raised his hand to signal to stop.

Wang Jianguo stopped the car, and the soldier came forward and saluted with a standard military salute: "Please show me your ID."

The soldier's voice was serious and powerful.

Xu Huaian and Wang Jianguo took out their IDs and handed them to the soldier. After carefully checking them, the soldier looked at Shi Qingqian in the car and asked, "Who is this?"

Xu Huaian raised the corner of his mouth slightly and introduced: "This is my wife, she came to visit relatives in the army."

When the soldier heard this, his eyes softened instantly and he saluted again, "Welcome sister-in-law to the army."

Shi Qingqian smiled a little embarrassedly, "Thank you."

After the soldiers finished checking, they signaled them to pass.

After entering the military camp, the road was wide and clean, with trees on both sides neatly arranged, as if welcoming their arrival.

From time to time, teams of soldiers marched past in neat steps, their slogans loud and powerful.

"Why are you still training so late?" Shi Qingqian asked.

Xu Huaian looked at Shi Qingqian's curious expression and explained gently, "In addition to daily training during the day, the troops also have night training to improve their nighttime marching and combat capabilities."

"So that's how it is. You guys really work hard," Shi Qingqian said with emotion.

Xu Huaian nodded slightly: "We do all this for the country and the people. No matter how hard it is, it's worth it."

After a while, the car arrived at the family compound.

The atmosphere here is slightly different from the serious atmosphere of the training ground, and it has a bit more of a breath of life.

There are two tube-shaped buildings in the family compound. If you walk further in, you can see several rows of bungalows.

The house Xu Huaian applied for is a bungalow.

"Qianqian, there are no vacancies in the tube building right now. If you want to live there, I'll try to apply again next time."

At this time, everyone was interested in buildings, but Shi Qingqian was not.

The tube-shaped building consists of several households connected by a long corridor. With such a high density, it is obvious that the privacy is very poor.

For a young couple like these who have just been apart, things will definitely be more intense, and Shi Qingqian doesn't want anyone to overhear them.

Shi Qingqian looked at Xu Huaian and said seriously, "I don't care about the tube-shaped building. Our bungalow is good enough. I like it."
