Chapter 144 Bai Fanglan Gets Married
Bai Fanglan’s wedding was held in a hotel near the military district, and it was quite lively. Looking around, more than half were wearing military uniforms, and the atmosphere was very solemn. Many leaders attended, most of whom knew Gu Junming, so naturally, greetings were exchanged upon meeting.
Wang Hu was over there greeting guests, and upon seeing Gu Junming, he was very warm. Although he was the groom, apart from a boutonniere on his chest, he wore nothing special, still clad in a military coat.
He enthusiastically shook hands with Gu Junming, "When are you returning to the quake zone?"
"After the New Year. Are you going back?" Gu Junming replied.
"Yes. Isn’t it because of the New Year? I need to visit the soldiers staying in the disaster zone." Wang Hu specializes in ideological and political work, and such tasks are indeed more suitable for him. But this cannot compare to Gu Junming’s credentials.
He knew Gu Junming had earned more merits this time, feeling a burning urgency in his heart; if this continued, he would indeed lose. Even Yan Kai received a third-class merit this time, plus the previous accomplishment at Xiong’er Ridge, leaving Wang Hu at a disadvantage. Thinking of this, he lost all mood for the wedding.
The two talked briefly about the troop arrangements. Sun Chan didn’t speak, just smiled faintly, youthful and radiant.
Wang Hu glanced, found her quite pleasing to the eye, and glanced again, meeting Sun Chan’s gaze. Feeling a bit ill at ease, he realized staring wasn’t appropriate. She meant nothing by it, but worried others might misinterpret. After saying a few words to Gu Junming, he shifted his attention elsewhere.
