During New Year, the special training forces wrapped dumplings together at the dining hall. However, they were all male soldiers.
Since Lu Ye wasn’t around, Gu Yan didn’t participate. She wasn’t interested in going either.
Gu Yan and Lu Ye left the dorms. The dining hall was still well lit up and bustling with activity. However, it couldn’t draw their attention over no matter what.
Their hearts were solely focused on each other.
Both of them held hands as they walked straight to the training grounds.
There was a small empty hill there. It was high enough and a great place to watch the fireworks.
The fireworks this evening were mainly about listening or watching those mono-colored lights.
There wasn’t much variety.
Even so, the couple chose a spot and leaned against each other, watching the festive night sky.
They still felt it was very romantic.
It was a romance belonging to this era.
There was the saying, ‘If you choose the right person, you go through Valentine’s day every day.’
The fireworks went on for a long while.
Gu Yan looked up at the vast sky and narrowed her eyes. Her lips curled up.
Suddenly, she felt a little warmth on her face.
When she turned around, she realized Lu Ye had just kissed her. He was looking at her with a scorching gaze.
“Gu Yan, next New Year, we’ll play with fireworks together.”
“What did you say?” The fireworks were so loud that Gu Yan couldn’t hear him clearly.
Her pair of pretty eyes looked intently at Lu Ye.
Lu Ye bent down and quickly kissed her lips again. She pointed at Gu Yan and then pointed at his heart.
The fireworks were still going on, but he didn’t need to say any words now.
Nothing was as important as the two being together forever.
The pair just leaned against each other like that for an hour or so.
Later, the fireworks started to wane. Only then did the two of them return.
Other than the two swift pecks, Lu Ye didn’t do anything else.
He knew well enough that when he and Gu Yan arrived at the place, there were a few other people concealing themselves in the dark.
Those bastards, they were hiding there, probably wanting to peek at something.
Did you guys want to take a sneak peek?
‘Hmph, I won’t let you watch!’
When Lu Ye took Gu Yan back to the dormitory, three tightly-wrapped soldiers revealed themselves.
One of them was confused.
“Captain Lu can really hold it in. He really just innocently watched an hour of fireworks with such a pretty girlfriend?”
“Are you dumb? They were constantly holding hands.”
The last one shook his head. “You two are too naïve! Didn’t you see him bring her back to his room?”
The first soldier remarked with shock, “You’re saying… they will… tonight… No way! When Captain Lu’s mother visited, Captain Lu went to Captain Bai’s room to sleep.”
The other two looked at him like he was an idiot.
The last person shook his head and concluded, “You will probably end up single for the rest of your life.”
