Chapter 533 - 0533: Red Fluff’s Night Run 1_1
The commander and Su Junlin were smiling at Bai Xue, habitually assuming that she would not refuse.
In the military, most of the officers were older than the female soldiers. It was rare to find someone of the same age, and no female soldier had ever resisted an arranged match.
So they weren’t worried.
Even Xibao, sitting on the commander’s arm, was blinking her big eyes curiously at Bai Xue. Her eyes were spinning rapidly as if to say this person was not as white as mom, not as beautiful as mom, not as fragrant and soft as mom.
Bai Xue felt annoyed. Why could Feng Qingxue marry the young, handsome and remarkable Lu Jiang while she was expected to marry a playboy or an old man? She was a good singer and dancer and had been praised many times. Even the leaders had invited her to dance. What did Feng Qingxue have? Wasn’t she just a peasant woman? Regardless of her looks, she was still just a village girl.
"I... esteemed Commander, esteemed Division Commander, I... feel this is sudden, I need some time to consider!" Bai Xue wanted to refuse but didn’t dare. She didn’t have the courage to, so she hedged to buy herself some time and hoped to seek her aunt’s help.
"That’s fine! I understand it’s sudden, and it will take some time for you two to leave the military area. After all, only a small portion of the leaders and soldiers have seen you perform today. There are still many who haven’t seen it." The commander didn’t find it peculiar. Girls usually are reserved and seldom agree right away. It’s common for them to take some time to think it over.
Having agreed to Bai Xue’s request, the commander pointed at Su Junlin with one hand and laughed, "Even though Division Commander Su is a bit older, older people tend to be more considerate! His salary, allowances, and benefits are not low, he won’t let you suffer in life. The army cares a lot about Commander Su’s family life and has always been selecting suitable candidates. No one can be perfect, but when we saw you today, we knew you were the one. Comrade Bai Xue, the army values you highly and hopes you will carefully consider. Age and status are not a problem!"
