Chapter 1345: 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."

Lu Jiang, keenly perceptive, realized that something was up.

"Okay, make it quick," Lu Jiang said. With the great-nephew accompanying them, he wasn’t worried; instead, he had to take care of the four kids around him first.

Zhong Wenxiu’s face was a bit red; on the way back, she kept her head down, just looking at her feet. If not for Feng Qingxue’s enthusiasm, always engaging her in conversation, and Feng Qingyun’s playful interjections, she would probably have remained silent the whole time.

"Wenxiu, may I call you that?" Feng Qingxue suddenly asked halfway through their journey.

"Of course you can," Zhong Wenxiu said, looking up with a smile.

Although she wasn’t particularly stunning, her beauty paled in comparison to Feng Qingyun’s, but the gentle, water-like warmth she exuded was something Feng Qingyun lacked, making people feel as if they were basking in the spring breeze.

Feng Qingxue said with a smile, "I feel like you and I hit it off; we should write to each other in the future, along with Xiaoyun."

"Of course!" Zhong Wenxiu was not ungrateful.

Feng Qingxue’s smile grew even sweeter, sweet enough to make Zhong Wenxiu nearly light-headed. She was so young, so beautiful; it was hard to believe that she was almost thirty, still ethereal and extraordinary as a young girl.

The sisters had indeed noticed that Zhong Wenxiu had taken a liking to Guan Cheng, and they were doing all this because they saw that the attraction was mutual.

Ensuring that the flicker of affection they had for each other continued was what mattered most.

Love at first sight, heart flutters at a second glance, understanding each other’s character and talents, sharing common interests – this is what real love and marriage are about.

Whether they could turn this into a beautiful relationship would be up to Guan Cheng and Zhong Wenxiu themselves.
