Chapter 945 - 0945: Old Friends Help 3
"You saw me? Saw us, when?" Feng Qingxue expressed surprise at He Hongjun’s words.
Why had she no recollection? She had a good memory.
If she had seen He Hongjun, she surely would have recognized him because his appearance hadn’t changed, with the most notable difference being his cleaner and neater clothing, and he seemed more spirited.
He Hongjun laughed and said, "It’s been several days, I think. That morning, there was a light rain, and I was on the tram to work when I saw the two of you in military green, holding an oilcloth umbrella. I thought my eyes were deceiving me. I knew your husband was in the military, you’re always at the Wanglou Brigade, right? So how come you’re donning a proper military uniform too? That’s not the kind of military clothes ordinary citizens wear to show admiration for soldiers."
Upon hearing He Hongjun’s explanation, Feng Qingxue realized it must have been when she got off the tram after lunch that day.

Recently, we’ve both been on leave! We were idle at home and decided to take a trip to Shanghai. In a few days, we’re going to the Capital to visit some old friends."
He Hongjun quickly greeted Lu Jiang, "My life was saved by Comrade Qingxue. I owe her a great debt of gratitude that I will never forget."
Lu Jiang once again witnessed the connections his wife had accumulated through her good deeds, marveling at how she seemed to know someone wherever they went.
"Hello, hello, Comrade He Hongjun, saving people is our duty, no one can ignore someone in peril." Lu Jiang saluted him militarily, then glanced at the recycling station behind He Hongjun, "Comrade He Hongjun, do you work here?"
