Chapter 1960 80s 9

Su Yan didn't really move; she just moved in with her bags.

So she refused Jiang Hong's offer to help her move.

Unexpectedly, while carrying a bundle and walking in the alley, she also ran into Li Chunyan, Wu Jianguo's white moonlight.

She saw Su Yan look her up and down. The two had met before at the military family compound, but she didn't know if Su Yan remembered her.

Su Yan walked into the alley as if nothing had happened.

Suddenly, her voice came from behind: "Hey, you're Commander Wu's fiancée, right?"

Su Yan turned around, a professional fake smile on her face, and said, "Commander Wu and I have dissolved our engagement. From now on, we have no relationship whatsoever."

"Then why are you still in the capital?"

"Can't I be here?"

"Uh, no, it's just that your letter of introduction is due soon, isn't it?"

Su Yan said politely but distantly, "This is my private matter, you don't need to worry about it."

"Alright then, do you live here now?"

Su Yan smiled but did not answer. Li Chunyan also felt that she had been a bit presumptuous, since they had only met once.

They hadn't even had a formal introduction, and now she was asking all sorts of questions; it was already a miracle that Su Yan was even paying attention to her.

"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now," Su Yan said politely.

"Oh, goodbye then." Li Chunyan said goodbye somewhat awkwardly.

Later, in the military family compound, Li Chunyan met Wu Jianguo and brought up the matter.

"Um, last time I ran into your former fiancée, Su Yan, she lived in Wangfu Street. Did you arrange that?"

"She hasn't left yet?" Wu Jianguo was a little surprised; he thought Su Yan had already left.

After all, they weren't married and didn't have a marriage certificate, so she had to return to her hometown when the time came.

"Don't you know what's going on between you two?"

"I have nothing to do with her anymore, really."

Seeing his anxiety, Li Chunyan quickly smiled and said, "I didn't mean anything by it. She also told me that you had broken off your engagement. Why did you break off the engagement so suddenly?"

Wu Jianguo looked at Li Chunyan with complicated emotions, which he could hardly conceal.

Li Chunyan couldn't stand his direct and slightly aggressive gaze, and awkwardly avoided his eyes.

"Because I didn't like him, I broke off the engagement. I don't want to be tied to someone I have no feelings for for the rest of my life. This time, I just want to live for myself."

Li Chunyan's eyes flickered, not daring to meet Wu Jianguo's gaze. She pretended not to understand anything and smiled, "You are very brave. I really admire you."

"I'd rather stay single than not meet someone I like. Even if she gets married, I'm willing to wait for her."

Unfortunately, she was already married and could not possibly respond to him.

"I have to go pick up my child, so I'll leave now. We'll talk later."

"Well, let's go."

Li Chunyan ran away as if fleeing, as there was simply no way to continue the conversation.

She had only come to ask Wu Jianguo because she was a little concerned, but now that she was sure he did have feelings for her, Li Chunyan was both happy and worried.

Why did they meet so late? It would have been so much better if they had met two years earlier.

Although she is now the battalion commander's wife, her husband is away from home most of the year, either on a mission or on his way to one.

What's the difference between her and a widow? Besides, her husband is unromantic, not gentle, and doesn't know how to make a woman happy.

Every time he came back, he had a stern face, and when he opened his mouth, it was like he was scolding his soldiers. His words were fierce and harsh, and she really couldn't like him.

If it weren't for his good qualities, she really wouldn't have wanted to marry him.

Alas, fate is cruel.

Li Chunyan walked for a while, but still couldn't help but look back.

To everyone's surprise, Wu Jianguo not only didn't leave, but kept staring at her back.

Their eyes met, and Li Chunyan quickly turned her head away, her heart pounding wildly.

This guy just stares at her so openly. What if someone else sees him? He really doesn't know how to hide anything.

That afternoon, Wu Jianguo went to Wangfu Street and circled the area twice, following the address given by Li Chunyan, but still couldn't find Su Yan.

Finally, I had to ask around to find out exactly where Su Yan had moved to.

"Boom boom boom..."

Su Yan had just finished lunch and was resting in a rattan chair when she was surprised to find someone looking for her at this hour.

He slowly opened the door and saw Wu Jianguo standing outside with a dark expression, as if someone owed him money.

"What? Do I know you?"

Wu Jianguo was about to ask why he hadn't gone back to his hometown yet, but Su Yan's question made him seem presumptuous.

"Hmm, why haven't you gone back to your hometown yet?"

"Whether I go back to my hometown or not is none of your business. Do we even know each other?"

"Su Yan! Do you have to talk to me like this? I've never treated you badly. Even after the engagement was dissolved, I gave you enough compensation. Are you blaming me now?"

Su Yan chuckled and said, "Yes, you compensated me, so we have no relationship anymore. In my eyes, you're a stranger. What's wrong with me asking this? Why would a stranger like you come knocking on my door?"

"Su Yan, don't give me that nonsense. I'm asking you, why haven't you gone back to your hometown yet?"

"Whether I go back to my hometown or not is none of your business. Even if I get arrested and deported, it's none of your concern."

"You're like a dog biting Li Dongbin, not recognizing a kind heart. I just wanted to show you some concern, did you have to be so hostile towards me?"

"Hehe, do I need your concern? You're really kind, even coming to check on a stranger. If you're so free, why don't you go and support the Northwest?"

Wu Jianguo choked, realizing he had come all this way for nothing. Judging from Su Yan's hateful expression, she was probably still resentful about their broken engagement.

He had never known she had such a unreasonable and irrational side.

In her past life, she always went along with him and was very patient with him and their child. Now, just because he broke off the engagement, his true nature has been revealed.

Sure enough, she was a master of disguise.

Unfortunately, he could never be with her again in this lifetime, and he wouldn't care what she was like anymore.

"I know you're angry, but I've already made amends enough. What more do you want from me?"

Su Yan was so angry he laughed. It was as if he couldn't understand what was being said. The other person had distanced themselves from him, but he still came to bother them, acting all self-righteous and bossy.

Could he still think she's the woman who faithfully stayed by his side in his past life?

"Who has time to get angry at a stranger? And don't think you're the boss just because you gave me enough compensation. I'm an unmarried woman who was tricked into coming to the capital by your family, and then you broke off my engagement. Have you thought about what my fellow villagers will say when I go back? You don't think that the thousand yuan you gave me can make up for these invisible harms, do you?"
