If it weren't for his father's words, Xu Cheng might have already divorced Lin Chuxue after failing the Dragon Division test.
But he knew that all these years, while he was working hard, another person was also working hard, and that was Lin Chuxue.
She was also working hard. If her hard work was really just for herself and not for Xu Cheng, then Lin Chuxue wouldn't need to worry about her marriage with Xu Cheng and could just find someone else to marry. There were so many men in the entertainment industry and the entire country that were willing to treat her well, and not all of them were scumbags. However, Lin Chuxue didn't like any of them. She even put an end to all the rumors, which in itself meant that she respected Xu Cheng and was waiting for him. The two of them were working hard together to change.
Ever since that night, she told her parents that she was going to marry Xu Cheng.
Moreover, she was willing to come to Hua with him. As a man, if you can't even keep your promise, what kind of man are you?
So, Xu Cheng was working very hard.
"I can't do it." After Xu Cheng came back to his senses, he bitterly smiled and said to the five elders, "It's because I've been in love for half my life, and now you suddenly want me to let go. I feel like my life is going to go blank, and I don't know where I'm going to go."
Elder Zhou: "But you don't dare to face her right now, and you even want her to give up on you. If that's the case, why can't you let it go?"
"Three years in the army, three years of regret, and if you don't, a lifetime of regret. Which soldier would forget military rules and duties? As long as I don't die, the will to protect the country will still exist. At the same time, as long as I don't die, I will still want to protect the things I've protected for my entire life. This is a bad habit of soldiers! "Xu Cheng said.
Elder Xing: "If you want to forget a relationship, you have to accept a new one. Brat, my granddaughter Xing Zhen is still single."
The other four elders nudged Elder Xing. "Go to the side, don't ever forget to introduce your granddaughter."
Elder Xing snorted. "If you have the ability, then why don't you find an unmarried and beautiful granddaughter from your own family?"
Elder Zhou: "Because I have a granddaughter?"
Elder Nie: "That's right, there are more than 60 million single people in Hua who can't find a solution to their marriage problem. You don't want to serve the people and marry someone else, but you want to find Xiao Cheng?"
Elder Xing replied, "I, Zhen 'er, have no interest in others. What can I do?"
At this moment, Xu Cheng raised his head and looked at Elder Xing. "Then, does she like my current appearance?"
Elder Xing was momentarily at a loss for words. He smacked his lips and said, "If I want her to marry, then she has to marry! I want to teach her not to judge a book by its cover. My granddaughter is definitely not that vulgar! "
After saying that, even he curled his lips guiltily without confidence.
"Alright, grandpas, I know you're doing this for my own good. I've been through all these years, and I can still hold on for the rest of my days. People should have dreams. What if they come true?"
Old Man Ye couldn't help but tease, "Others might be able to realize this, but don't even think about it. This isn't a dream, it's called whimsy."
Xu Cheng: "If it's just wishful thinking, then so be it."
Grandpa Ye: "That's true. Your DNA doesn't belong to a human anyway. You're the only lunatic who doesn't need to be locked up in a mental hospital."
Hearing this, Xu Cheng couldn't help but laugh. "Grandpa Ye, don't forget that you said I couldn't handle the Land of Mercenaries. What about now? Who was the one who said he would help me write an autobiography? "
Old Man Ye awkwardly coughed, and his old face turned red. "It's not a foregone conclusion yet. Don't worry, if the Land of Mercenaries that you've been manipulating behind the scenes gets past the Americans and the United Nations recognizes your country's name and sovereignty, I'll personally write an autobiography for you and boast about you to the heavens, okay? "
Xu Cheng smiled in satisfaction, and then he sighed. "Now I feel like I have a goal to fight for."
Elder Zhou: "You're not even in your thirties yet, why are you sighing like an old man all day?"
Xu Cheng: "I've been with you guys for a long time, and my soul is already a hundred years old. Otherwise, I would have been tricked to death by you guys."
Old Man Ye slapped him on the back of the head. "How can you say that?"
Xu Cheng smiled. "Have a better attitude. I'm here to do business with you guys like a tycoon. Let me make it clear, if the goods aren't good, I will go to the polar bear next door. They're still waiting for my reply."
The five elders were speechless.
Old Man Ye rolled up his sleeves and was ready to fight. "Why don't you try next door? You don't even care about your own family's business, let me teach you a lesson. "
Old Man Zhou pulled him back. "Don't try that, it's not like you can beat him."
Old Man Ye: "If I beat him as an elder, would he dare to fight back?"
"No," Xu Cheng directly said.
"That's right," Old Man Ye said.
"But ever since I became like this, sometimes I can't control myself." Xu Cheng looked at Old Man Ye with a teasing look.
Old Man Ye's eyelids twitched, and he sat down. "Since my grandson asked, I will definitely give you a discount. We are hoping that you can make the Americans vomit 3 liters of blood. "
"That's for sure." Xu Cheng straightforwardly said, "I just hope that our country and Russia will try their best to prevent the Americans from landing their aircraft carriers. As long as they don't use all kinds of satellite missiles or nuclear bombs, we can solve the problem of our outdated weapons."
Old Man Ye nodded and said, "Don't worry, the Americans won't be able to fly over. As for the aircraft carriers, we will do a friendly exercise with Russia to block the entrance from the Pacific Ocean to the Indian Ocean. If the Americans want to go over, by the time it gets to your side, the aircraft carriers will only be an empty shell."
Xu Cheng was relieved. His purpose for coming here this time, in addition to taking care of his family's business, could also be considered half a favor to his parents. With the verbal agreement from the five elders, this matter was settled.
"Grandpa Ye, I will definitely come back to celebrate your 90th birthday."
Old Man Ye: "At least you still have a conscience."
The other elders weren't having it. "Then we won't celebrate our birthday? What a waste of your grandson! "
"It's all over, it's all over, I will come back, okay?" Xu Cheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He turned to look at Grandpa Xing and teased, "Grandpa Xing, then Xing Zhen is already my sister, can we still be together?"
Old Man Xing: "… This brat is f * cking tricking me again."
Xu Cheng smiled, stood up, and left.
Seeing that Xu Cheng was about to leave, Old Man Ye couldn't help but say, "Let's go see that girl. I feel like she still doesn't believe that you are dead."
Xu Cheng paused for a moment, and he curiously turned around to look at Old Man Ye.
Then, he heard Old Man Ye say, "She has a close friend named Ran Jing, right? She's still stubbornly investigating your identity file, and this is what that girl told her to do, which means she hasn't given up yet. "
Xu Cheng's eyes flashed.
