Chapter 964: Chapter 0964: Mutual Affection 1
Fast? This can’t be rushed.
The bus was full of passengers, and Feng Qingxue couldn’t even squeeze to the front half of the bus compartment, nor did she bother trying to make room for others to sit down. So, it was only after getting off the bus that she pulled Lu Tianjun aside under Jiang Xiaoyue’s anxious gaze.
The bus stop was a long way from the military base, giving them plenty of time to talk as they walked.
The base was far from the center of the Capital, secluded and remote.
Thus, the scene was set, with Lu Jiang, Feng Qingxue, and Lu Tianjun walking in front, and Jiang Xiaoyue lagging far behind, wringing the hem of her clothes and making them wrinkled.
"Tianjun, what do you think about Xiaoyue?" They, as uncle and aunt, hadn’t missed a single move.
Hearing his wife’s question, Lu Jiang smiled and said, "I just asked Tianjun about this on the bus, and he was begging me to ask you to inquire if Jiang Xiaoyue has a ’revolutionary companion.’ I remember you mentioned Bai Xue or someone from the Li Family, Li Jun, and Xiaoyue grew up together like green plums and hobby-horses."
Lu Tianjun scratched his forehead embarrassedly, his dark face blushing slightly as he stared at Feng Qingxue, "Aunt, my lifelong happiness is in your hands! I’ve never heard Comrade Xiaoyue report about dating anyone or getting married, so I’m certain she doesn’t have a ’revolutionary companion.’ I’m just worried about this childhood friend."
"Worried? Do you know Li Jun?" Feng Qingxue immediately seized the crux of the matter.
Smart boy, he’s done his homework, hasn’t he?
Lu Tianjun chuckled, "I’ve heard, I’ve heard. We’re about to become veterans, meaning I’ve been in the army for a year, and stationed in the Capital military region for eight or nine months. The grassroots soldiers share information, and I just happen to be a bit more well-informed. The only thing I know is that the Jiang Family and the Li Family are old family friends, both patriachs being old revolutionaries. I’ve also heard that the Li Family has long considered Xiaoyue as their future daughter-in-law and have interfered with her work in the army before, but I don’t know if Xiaoyue is aware of this."
Jiang Xiaoyue was forthright and open-minded, but due to this, she lacked sophisticated thoughtfulness. Based on Lu Tianjun’s understanding of her, she probably didn’t know about the Li Family’s actions, and how she feels about Li Jun is also unknown.

Childhood sweethearts, such a beautiful phrase.
Feng Qingxue stretched out her hand, intending to tap his forehead, but her nephew was too tall, so her fingertip only reached his chest.
Lu Jiang quickly pulled back her hand, "Qingxue, you’re his aunt. You can chastise him when needed, but don’t be too physical."
Feng Qingxue was initially taken aback, then she glared at him before turning to Lu Tianjun, "You’ve been in the army for only a year; will dating affect you guys? Can you handle how outsiders view you?"
"New and old soldiers are treated the same, and dating is no issue as long as proper procedures are followed." The military only prohibits improper conduct between servicemen and women. In fact, the military is more concerned than anyone about older officers remaining single. "Outsiders’ views? What views of outsiders? Aunt, I don’t quite understand what you mean."
Feng Qingxue patiently explained, "You’re a new recruit with no commendable achievements yet while Xiaoyue is a veteran, but let’s set that aside for now; you two are of similar age. Yet, she is General Jiang’s only precious daughter. In the future, when you’ve made a name for yourself, General Jiang says you have the makings of a General, and I believe you will achieve great things, but could you tolerate people saying you relied on family connections? We know that you built a career through your own hard work, but outsiders... especially those with ulterior motives, people will say all sorts of things."
