Chapter 319: Chapter 319 Is it interesting to keep pestering?_1
Sweet times are always fleeting.
By the time they returned from climbing the Great Wall, it was already the afternoon. They made some simple food after they got home and then laid down on the bed, too tired to move.
The dinner was prepared by Yun Hao.
Old Mr. Zhao watched them, smiling.
“Dad, next time, let’s climb the Great Wall.” Only then did Meng Yunhan recall that her dad had been with her in Kyoto for so long and she hadn’t taken him to climb the Great Wall yet.
Previously, she had been busy with homework and housework over the weekend, and she had neglected her dad.
...
But old Mr. Zhao didn’t really care. Seeing his daughter busy running the household, he was glad that she shouldered the responsibilities of the family.

On her weekends off, she didn’t even rest. If she wasn’t making clothes for him, she was making clothes or shoes for other family members.
Yun Hao, who barely got a chance to come home, he thought, should go out and have a lovely date with his wife. That would help to strengthen their relationship.
“We can talk about it later. Little Huzi is learning to walk now. When he learns how to walk, we, as a family, can go to climb the Great Wall. It wouldn’t be too late then.”
The following time passed swiftly, and Yun Hao woke up quietly before dawn the next day.
Meng Yunhan was waken up by old Mr. Zhao because she had to go to school, and he didn’t want her to be late.
“Dad, Ahao has left.” She longed for a time when she could see Ahao, the moment she opened her eyes in the morning and before going to bed at night.
Yet she needed to wait, and wait some more.
She had given herself ten years to finish her studies, start a business, and raise their child. Then she could join the military and spend more time with him rather than being apart for such long periods of time.
She also understood that now that Ahao had been promoted, becoming a vice battalion commander so young, he’d probably need to accumulate experience over the next several years.
There wouldn’t likely be many opportunities for out-of-town assignments.
However, he’d probably have plenty of other tasks, like training new soldiers.
“Hmm, he left early in the morning. He told me before he left.” As an old man, Mr. Zhao needed less sleep. Little Huzi slept next to him and as long as Huzi could sleep throughout the night, it was enough for Zhao – except when he had to hold Huzi for his midnight bathroom break.
Meng Yunhan had classes that day, so after quickly eating breakfast, she rushed off to school.
Lu Jingyi had visited the army several times but had not seen that man.
Since she had worries of her own, she wasn’t as attentive to Lin Xiao’s affairs now.
Today, she visited the army again, hoping to find the man whose mere memory made her heart race.
“Hey, stop!” Lu Jingyi saw Lu Jianjun and immediately called out to him.
Hearing her voice, Lu Jianjun could only sigh in frustration – he even furrowed his brow.
Didn’t this woman understand how to behave like a lady?
Was it fun for her to be so persistent?
And what about the guard at the gate? How did he allow this woman to come in?
Didn’t they know outsiders weren’t allowed in the military base?
It seemed a little chat was in order.
“If you have something to say, say it. If not, I’m very busy.” Lu Jianjun spoke, looking impatient.
He was genuinely busy, not just saying so.
Seeing Lu Jianjun’s discontent, Lu Jingyi said, “I’m just asking if you’ve got any new recruits here recently?”
She had to make the most of this hard-won opportunity to catch someone and ask. It had been so long, and she still had not found that man.
Lu Jianjun responded seriously, “A lot of people came here recently. Are you going to search for them one by one? You’re free to do so if you wish, but I don’t have the time to accompany you in these pointless pursuits.”
Seeing Lu Jianjun about to leave, Lu Jingyi grabbed his arm to stop him. Upon being stopped, Lu Jianjun’s expression darkened a bit.
