Yun Jingqi did not expect to meet an acquaintance on the first day of her arrival in Yunnan.
She turned around and saw a woman in her forties standing behind her. She was wearing a dignified police uniform and had a smile on her face. "Jingqi, Xiaoyun? It's really you? I noticed you the moment you stepped out of the platform. You haven't changed at all. You're still as beautiful as before! "
Yun Jingqi knew this woman.
Her surname was Zhao, Zhao Jiani. She used to work in the provincial capital's Public Security Bureau and was in the same office as Yun Jingqi. She was a family member of a soldier and was transferred to Yunnan with her husband. They had not seen each other for about three to four years.
She had met an old friend in a foreign land!
Yun Jingqi felt particularly close to her. "Sister Zhao, why are you here?"
"I'm here to pick someone up from the station. He's a young man who was newly assigned to the unit. It's a long story! What about you? Xiaoyun, why are you here? Are you on a business trip? "
Yun Jingqi shook her head. "No! I haven't been feeling well recently! I'm going back to the hospital! So I applied for a long leave from the unit and came out to get some fresh air. Otherwise … I'll feel bored to death in the provincial capital. "
Zhao Jiani chuckled. "Get some fresh air? Then you've come to the right place! Yunnan is really beautiful! The local customs are also different from the mainland! There's a lot to see! Hey, have you arranged a place to stay? "
"Not at the moment. I'm just looking for a hotel to stay in!"
"Great! When the person I'm picking up arrives, I'll send him to the Public Security Bureau's guest house! Come along. The conditions there are not bad. Also, it'll be convenient for me to look for you in the future. Since we've met again in Yunnan, we have to get together! I must treat you to a meal! "
Zhao Jiani was very enthusiastic.
Yun Jingqi thought about it … it was not a bad idea. She did not decline. "Okay, I'll listen to Sister Zhao's arrangements!"
"Okay! You'll be right to listen to my arrangements. I've been here for three to four years. I'm definitely more familiar with the environment than you are! "
She held Yun Jingqi's hand affectionately and said, "Aiya, fate is so magical. I don't even know where I'll meet who. When I left the provincial capital back then … To be honest, I thought I'd never see all of you again. Hey, how is Xiao Li in our office? Where's Little Wu? "
"Ah? They … "
The two of them chatted endlessly.
Zhao Jiani kept glancing at the exit, afraid that she would miss the person who would pick her up.
Not long after.
A young man in his twenties came out of the station, carrying a Shanghai travel bag in his hand. He looked clean and tidy as he stood outside the fence, looking left and right. Zhao Jiani was also a police officer, so her eyes were sharp. "It must be him!"
He quickly went up to him and asked, "Are you Little Zhang?"
"Yes! I'm Zhang Yu! You're … Big Sister Zhao who came to pick me up, right? "
"Yes! Yes! Comrade Little Zhang welcomes you! Let's cut the small talk and go back to the guest house first. You must be tired, right? Have a good rest! We'll talk about the rest later! "
Zhao Jiani was an amiable person. She squinted her eyes and smiled. "Xiao Zhang, don't you think it's a coincidence? I just met a friend from the northeast. He's also going to the guesthouse. Do you mind if we go together?"
"I don't mind, that's great! Let's keep each other company! "
Yun Jingqi also joined in the conversation. The three of them returned to the guest house of the Public Security Bureau together. After packing up, Second Sister Yun could finally settle down. Moreover, she already had a friend on the first day.
Putting aside her days in Yunnan for the time being.
Time flew by quickly …
Yun Laohu was about to leave home.
Although no one had mentioned 'parting' in the past few days, this moment had inevitably arrived.
At night …
Mi Xaing 'er hugged his waist under the blanket and clung tightly to his warm body. Half of her heart felt sweet and fulfilled, while the other half felt sad and sad.
The two of them were not sleepy at all, and they chatted endlessly …
Yun Laohu reminded them repeatedly that he could not bear to part with his wife and child. No matter how much Mi Xaing 'er said, it all boiled down to two words: "Take care."
Later, the clock on the wall struck 12. Mi Xaing 'er thought that her husband still had a long journey tomorrow and needed a good rest. She simply lowered her voice and pretended to be asleep.
Yun Laohu gently shook her shoulder. "Hm? Don't sleep, I'm talking to you! "
He felt that every minute and second they spent together was especially precious. He wanted to extend and make use of this time indefinitely. He wanted to hear his wife's voice and see her smile.
Mi Xaing 'er snorted softly. "Hm? Say it! I'm listening! "
Yun Laohu's heart ached for her. "Are you tired? Sleepy? "
"Hm! A little! "
Yun Jingting tightened his arms and hugged her even more tightly in his arms. His chin gently rubbed against her forehead … The woman's delicate body curled up in his chest made him feel indescribably fulfilled.
He lowered his voice. "Alright then! Go to sleep, I won't disturb you. "
He took the opportunity to put one of his thighs on Mi Xaing 'er's body and sandwiched her between his knees … It seemed that this was the only way the two of them could be so intimate that there was no gap between them.
Yun Laohu sighed contentedly … He really hoped that they could stay like this peacefully until the end of time.
However, no one could hold on to time.
The ticking sound of the clock on the wall flew past quickly.
Early morning …
The sky was still dark.
Yun Laohu tiptoed out of bed to get dressed and wash up. He did not dare to turn on the lights to disturb his wife. Everything was done in the dark. Fortunately, he had military training experience, so this was not a problem.
How could Mi Xaing 'er not feel anything?
She really did not know how to face her husband leaving.
Should she cry?
She did not want him to worry about her.
Should she smile?
She really did not want to pretend to be strong.
She was upset, and her heart ached … It was also a fact that she did not want to leave him.
She squinted her eyes in the dark and stared greedily at Yun Laohu's every movement on the floor. It was as if she wanted to imprint his figure in her mind and automatically condense it into a photo that would never fade.
Finally …
Yun Laohu swiftly tidied up his luggage and habitually touched his collar. Then, he walked slowly to the bed and kissed his son's face. He muttered softly, "Yunpeng, take good care of Mom for me!"
He then faced his wife and used his large hand to gently caress her face. His voice was as low as a whisper. "Xiang 'er, I'm leaving now!"
Mi Xaing 'er pretended that she did not hear him.
Yun Laohu bent down and hugged her in his arms. He rubbed his face against her cheek and felt a warm and smooth feeling. There was also a sweet fragrance in his nose. "Wife, be good … Wait for me to come back!"
He did not say anything else.
He gently kissed her on the lips … then turned around and strode out of the room.
"Pa Da" sound …
The door closed.
Mi Xaing 'er felt a lump in her chest. The tip of her nose turned sour and tears almost fell. She really had the urge to call her husband back, kiss him, and hug him.
She opened her mouth but did not make a sound.
She lifted the blanket and ran to the window barefooted. She hid behind the curtains and looked through the gap at Yun Jingting's handsome back view under the streetlights … He walked further and further away.
Until he reached the corner.
Yun Laohu then stopped in his tracks. He hesitated for a moment and turned to look at the window of his house.
The dim yellow light of the street lamp shone on his face, as if covering him with a layer of pleasant halo.
Mi Xaing 'er could not hold it in any longer.
She grabbed the curtains with both hands and pulled them to the sides. With a whoosh, the heavy curtains opened and her slim figure was reflected in the window.
Mi Xaing 'er reached out to push open the window. A gust of cool wind blew in and gently caressed the ends of her hair.
Tiger Cloud saw this scene from afar. He squinted his eyes and smiled. He straightened his body and stood at attention, giving her a solemn military salute.
He paused for a few seconds.
Then he put down his right arm and waved gently. Although he knew that it was too far away and his wife could not see him, he still mouthed, "Take care!"
He turned around …
He disappeared around the corner in large strides.
Mi Xaing 'er muttered softly, "Tiger, you have to take care of yourself too!"
Yun Jingting arrived at the entrance of the military zone.
Wu Zhifei and Gu Dalong were already waiting there … Both of them were dressed in neat military uniforms and looked mighty and tall.
They had already said their goodbyes.
Wu Zhifei saluted silently and then shook Yun Laohu's hand forcefully … The thousands of words that were exchanged between comrades were expressed in their speechless gazes.
Gu Dalong straightened his luggage. "Political Commissar! We're setting off! "
Wu Zhifei nodded and patted his shoulder forcefully. "Okay! Let's go! Dalong, take good care of Tiger when we get there. When everything is settled, give me a call! "
"Yes!" Gu Dalong saluted. "Rest assured, Political Commissar!"
Yun Laohu took a deep breath and said to Gu Dalong briefly and forcefully, "Let's go!"
A few days later …
Yun Laohu stood on the platform of Kunming Train Station. She looked at the person who had come to pick her up and was stunned. "Why are you here?"
