The beautiful woman in the quick transmigration novel has been targeted by the male lead again.

Yan Shuqin was stunned for a moment before she realized what she was talking about: "What nonsense are you talking about? They don't even know you, how are you going to go?"

"Didn't you say that Tao Hongdou hasn't met anyone yet? When I go there, I'll just say I'm Tao Hongdou!"

"You silly girl, you can't concentrate on your studies, but your brain is working fast right now!" Yan Shuqin scolded. "No way!"

"Mom! Mom—" Chang Ning whined, "That person is good-looking, I like that kind of person!"

Yan Shuqin slapped her hand away, "Being pretty isn't good enough. We don't know anything about him. Who knows if he's the real commander or a fraud!"

"Oh my god, we'll just ask them when the time comes. The team leader should have some kind of proof!"

"That won't do either. If you go, and Tao Hongdou goes too, what if they run into each other? How embarrassing would that be for you! Where would you put your face then!"

Chang Ning said, "Just tell Tao Hongdou not to go tomorrow!"

She admitted that she was a little bad, since her whole family had bullied her older brother so much. "I'm just taking revenge for my brother!"

Yan Shuqin didn't refuse outright this time. To be honest, she was also a little tempted. Tao Hongdou had delayed her son for several years, and now she was going to marry a regimental commander. She would be angry for the rest of her life!

"What if that guy finds out when you go?"

Yan Shuqin waved her hand, "No, no, that would be even more embarrassing!"

Chang Ning naturally thought of these things: "If I don't like him, then so be it. But if I do like him, I'll first establish a relationship with him, and then I'll tell him who I am!"

"The relationship is already settled, he can't go back on his word now, can he?"

Yan Shuqin had given up hope on her daughter's head. She had been spoiled by her parents and two older brothers since she was a child and was not very shrewd. "What can you do if someone cheats? You were the one who lied to them first!"

"I don't care, I'm going!"

Yan Shuqin pinched her forehead: "Look at your pathetic self!"

the next day.

Chang Jun rode his bicycle to take Chang Ning to the city. Of course, he didn't know that his younger sister was going on a blind date; he just thought she was going to buy something.

Yan Shuqin didn't tell the two men in her family either, just thinking that Chang Ning was just being silly, so as not to make a fuss again. Whether it would work out or not was another matter.

When they arrived, Chang Jun dropped her off, arranged a time to pick her up, and then went to deliver the goods.

Chang Ning, wearing that white floral dress, gracefully entered the state-run restaurant next door.

The appointment was for 11 a.m. There weren't many people inside yet. As soon as I went in, I saw someone already sitting at a table by the window. It was the same person I had seen at my doorstep yesterday.

He doesn't have the square face that's popular these days; instead, he has sharp features, a high nose bridge, sharp eyes, and wheat-colored skin. When he's alone, he stands very straight, and he immediately raises his head when he senses someone approaching.

He was visibly taken aback when he saw the person who came, then immediately stood up and said, "Comrade, hello."

Changning says hello.

She wore two loose braids that just reached below her shoulders, unlike other girls who styled theirs neatly. She thought the looseness made her look better.

The man spoke first: "You're from Shangtang Village..."

"Oh yes, it's me!"

Chang Ning immediately interrupted him.

The man seemed to curl his lips slightly: "Please sit down."

"Oh, good."

Chang Ning sat down opposite him, looked closely at his face, then lowered her head and heard him ask, "What would you like to eat?"

It's actually a bit early to eat now, but there's nothing else to do if you don't eat. Chang Ning looked at the menu and ordered a braised pork dish, but the other person told her to order more.

Changning added a stir-fried vegetable dish.

These days, people come to restaurants looking for a better meal, and very few order vegetarian dishes like green vegetables. The man didn't say anything, and ordered a braised pork rib and a braised seafood dish.

Excluding the food coupons, it cost a total of two yuan and sixty-five cents.

That's considered quite luxurious, considering that the average wage for urban workers these days is only around thirty or forty yuan.

The other person poured her tea, and the two sat facing each other in silence for a moment.

Don't be fooled by Chang Ning's daring to come up with such crooked ideas at home. People who don't know her might think she's incredibly capable, but once she arrives here, she becomes mute in front of everyone. To put it bluntly, she's a bully at home!

Seeing that she kept her head down and didn't seem inclined to speak, the man coughed. Chang Ning immediately looked at him, and he said, "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Jiang Linghan, I am 27 years old, and I am a soldier stationed in H Province in central China, which is 16 hours away by train from here. My current rank is regimental commander, and my monthly allowance is 85 yuan."

Seeing her eyes slowly widen, the man continued, "My hometown is in Beijing. My parents are still alive, and I have an older brother who is already married."

"oh oh."

Chang Ning stammered, “I, my name is Chang Ning, I am 20 years old, I live in the third production team of Shangtang Village, I have two older brothers, and my parents are both healthy.”

After listening to her, Jiang Linghan asked, "What's your name?"

Chang Ning was stunned. Had she just said her own name?

"I, my name is, um..." Not knowing how to explain, she said angrily, "You don't even know my name?"

Chang Ning was certain that she had really seen the corner of his mouth curve slightly this time. "Sorry, I just wanted to confirm."

"Oh." Chang Ning said somewhat awkwardly, "It's enough that you know."

The dishes were served, and Jiang Linghan said, "Let's eat first."

The two chatted casually, with Jiang Linghan asking questions and Chang Ning answering. The questions were mostly about what she liked to eat and play, and she even mentioned her eldest brother and second brother.

Chang Ning suddenly realized that although Tao Hongdou had older brothers and a younger sister, Jiang Linghan hadn't mentioned her at all!

He went to the Tao family yesterday, so there's no way he didn't know, right?

Chang Ning glanced at him and saw that his expression was normal, and she couldn't tell what he was thinking at all. She wondered if she had been exposed.

Sitting here, I realized this was a terrible idea. Let's finish our meal and leave!

She felt bad about letting him suffer a loss, so she ate less and he ate most of it. She would just give him a dollar later!

Seeing that she was picking at the last grain of rice one by one, Jiang Linghan asked, "Can't you eat anymore?"

Chang Ning was already full, but there was no such thing as wasting food at this time, so he had to eat even if he was forced to.

Jiang Linghan held out his hand: "Give it to me."

"what?"

Jiang Linghan gestured to her bowl, and Chang Ning tentatively pushed it over. She saw him eat from her bowl without any hesitation. Chang Ning was stunned. Do soldiers of the People's Army even eat the leftovers of the people?

Finally, Chang Ning, holding her teacup, watched him devour the food and felt she couldn't stand it any longer. Just as she was about to suggest that they call it a day, she heard the person opposite her ask, "What do you think of me?"

Chang Ning paused for a moment and said, "That's good, that's good."

Jiang Linghan said, "I have a lot of feelings for you. If you're willing, I hope we can get married as soon as possible!"

"what!"

Chang Ning almost jumped up. It's normal to talk about marriage on the first meeting, but Chang Ning was completely unprepared for this. She stammered, "I... I need to go home and discuss it with my mom."

She only thought he was good-looking, which is why she caused this whole mess. She never imagined it would lead to something as far-reaching as marriage!

"When can I get the results? Can you do it tomorrow?" Jiang Linghan said. "Because I need to return to my post in three days, the time is a bit tight, please understand."
