Chapter 268 - Chapter 268 Chapter 267 Taking You to Flirt with Girls (24)

Chapter 268: Chapter 267: Taking You to Flirt with Girls? (24) Chapter 268: Chapter 267: Taking You to Flirt with Girls? (24) After coming out of the space once again, Su Shu finally managed to squeeze in a nap before dawn.

Upon waking, she first heated some water for Xiao’ai’s bath, and after getting her all nice and clean, she took her down to the Ge Family’s old house–only to run into Tang Zelin, who was just coming up the mountain to find her.

“You… How did you come up here?”

The first thing she said upon seeing him amused Tang Zelin.

He had come up the mountain without a single soldier; what else could he be there for if not to see her?

The two stood at the main entrance of the Ge Family home, just looking at each other–you in surprise, me with a smile.

Fu Shiyin took Xiao’ai’s hand, and upon seeing the two of them standing at her doorstep gazing into each other’s eyes, she couldn’t help but let out a chuckle.

“Are you two going to come inside to chat, or head back up? Is the air better at the doorway?”

Su Shu’s face turned red with embarrassment from Grandma Fu’s teasing, and she hastily followed her into the house.

Tang Zelin, following behind her, showed not the slightest hint of discomfort from the old lady’s teasing; he greeted her politely and confidently stepped inside, casually closing the Ge Family’s main gate behind him.

Old Ge took off his reading glasses upon hearing his wife’s words and greeted Tang Zelin with a warm smile when he saw him.

“Group Captain Tang is here?”

“How is your health, Old Ge?”

Tang Zelin approached with a beaming smile and found himself a seat.

Ge Tingzhi laughed and said, “Just an old bag of bones, taking it one day at a time; nothing much to report.”

“If you feel unwell, you should go down to the hospital early; with the cool weather rolling in, it’s better to be more cautious.”

“Ha-ha, I appreciate Group Captain Tang’s concern.”

The conversation between men always flows smoothly, especially since Ge Tingzhi held Tang Zelin in high regard. Though initially acquainted through Su Shu, after chatting a few times, both Old Ge and his wife Fu Shiyin had privately expressed their very favorable impressions of Tang Zelin.

It was rare for Old Ge to find someone as young as Tang Zelin who not only had talent and ambition but also empathized with the emotions of the common people. As a military man, he fulfilled his duty without arrogance or impatience, intelligent and courageous–Old Ge greatly admired him.

Fu Shiyin also liked Group Captain Tang, but without all the complex reasons her old man had; to her, it was enough that he simply seemed like a good person.

Moreover, she was quite optimistic about Tang Zelin and Su Shu as a couple.

Old Ge shared his thoughts on the pros and cons of everything the government had done in C City since the Apocalypse arrived. Tang Zelin contributed to the conversation when appropriate and laughed off topics he couldn’t discuss; Old Ge didn’t pry further.

While the men talked about matters concerning the state, Fu Shiyin held Su Shu’s hand and discussed women’s matters between themselves.

The topics among women invariably revolved around how things were progressing between her and Tang Zelin.

Su Shu didn’t know how to answer; it was clear to anyone with eyes what was going on between her and Tang Zelin, and she didn’t try to hide it, but currently, their relationship was hung up on the military’s marriage report.

Grandma Fu said, “It really is a bit troublesome with the military; if he weren’t in the service, you two could be together and who could say anything? You see, that’s how it is for people in our district.”

“Yeah, but we’re not in a rush; it’s better to wait, especially since he’s in the military. If we did it like others, it wouldn’t be good for him,” Su Shu was quite relaxed about it, despite a bit of anxiety in her heart. She was already blessed with more than she’d hoped for; after all, one must be grateful for the good things in life, right?
