Chapter 1345: Keeping Mediation Pulling 4
For Guan Cheng, this was like a pie filled with gold falling from the sky!
He slipped the letter into his inner pocket, patted his chest, and said, "Don’t worry, Auntie, once I get what I’m hoping for, I’ll definitely repay your kindness!"
This was an excellent matchmaker, truly understanding and considerate.
Why were both his aunt and his little aunt so understanding and considerate? It moved him so deeply that on the way back after dropping off Feng Qingyun, Feng Qingxue had told him about Zhong Wenxiu’s age and some conclusions she had drawn from their conversation.
Zhong Wenxiu, eighteen years old, a capitalist’s daughter, her household registration was in Jinling before she enlisted, her birthplace unknown, as well as her parents’ family background.
Feng Qingyun adopted an elder’s tone and whispered, "Who else should I care about if not my great-nephew? Wenxiu is really good, she’s just a bit less experienced than my sister, as good as Xiaoyue. There are plenty of soldiers in the army eyeing our cultural troupe, and Wenxiu, with her gentle nature, attracts a lot of attention. You need to step up your game!"
Guan Cheng nodded vigorously, saying repeatedly, "Don’t worry!"
"How can I not worry? Wenxiu is in the army, you’re going back home; both of you are in different places, relying only on letters is not reliable. Moreover, the cultural troupe has a rule: no promotions, no romance. Your situation is different from Tianjun and Xiaoyue; your path is arduous and long!"
"Even so, I can’t just give up!" Guan Cheng had finally encountered a comrade that made his heart flutter at first sight. Retreating in face of difficulty was not his style; he had to find a way to change the current situation. He couldn’t remain hidden in the Wanglou Brigade forever, letting his talents go to waste.
After he and Feng Qingyun returned to the others, Feng Qingyun took Zhong Wenxiu’s hand to say goodbye to everyone.
"It’s almost five o’clock now, and it’s getting dark. I can’t rest easy with you two girls going back alone," Feng Qingxue quickly intervened, pushing Zhuangzhuang into Lu Jiang’s arms, "Acheng and I will escort them. You all wait for us at the army base entrance."
