Chapter 228: You Mean That You Like Gu Yan?
“Mhm, I really like her.” Gu Yan nodded. “But I told her not to let others know for now. At most, Bai Changle should be the only one privy to it.”
“Mhm, I’m with you, whatever your decision may be.” Lu Ye moved closer and hugged Gu Yan from behind.
“Sigh, you’re going back to the Logistics Department soon.”
“I’ve agreed with my G.o.dmother to come to your place for half a day during my monthly break to ma.s.sage her head. Her head always hurts.”
“Sure!” Lu Ye was quite happy. That way, he would be able to see her more.
The two shared some more intimate moments before Gu Yan went back to the Logistics Department.
Lu Ye accompanied her back to the barracks. As soon as they went inside, the women of the Logistics Department peered at them curiously.
Disregarding the murmurs, Gu Yan generously took her things from Lu Ye’s hands and waved him goodbye.
Lu Ye took a good look at her before finally departing.
Upon returning to the special vanguard force, a voice next to him exclaimed, “Greetings, Captain Lu!”
Lu Ye turned around. It was the squad leader under him, Song Qiliang. Yan Yan’s acquaintance.
He nodded. “You just came back from home?”
“Mhm.” Song Qiliang nodded. He smiled and took out a bag saying, “Captain Lu, my mom dried these mushrooms. It can be used to cook with meat. It’s very tasty. Take it.”
Now that Gu Yan had gone back to the Logistics Department, he had no intentions of cooking anymore. He’d grab whatever was served at the dining hall.
However, Lu Ye still took the dried mushrooms since Gu Yan might like dried mushrooms.
He remembered the first time he met Gu Yan, she was picking mushrooms in the mountains.
Suddenly, Song Qiliang said, “Captain Lu, I want to ask a favor of you.”
“What is it?” Lu Ye raised a brow. He wondered to himself if he looked like the type to be very helpful.
Song Qiliang looked determined and wouldn’t be dissuaded by Lu Ye’s expression.
Song Qiliang has been thinking about this during the past few days at home. He even had trouble falling asleep.
He told his mother and had Aunty Sun’s full support.
He rubbed his hand and said with embarra.s.sment, “Captain Lu, I need your help to introduce someone to me.”
Lu Ye squinted and said, “Song Qiliang, do I look like a matchmaker to you?”
He had never done this before. Why did this stupid Song think he would?
Song Qiliang smiled. “The thing is, aren’t you very close with Comrade Gu Yan? You’re our superior as well. I want you to ask Gu Yan if she’s willing… to date me.”
This was the first time Song Qiliang admitted his feelings towards Gu Yan. He really felt embarra.s.sed. His face and neck turned red as blood rushed to his head.
Lu Ye smiled bleakly. “So you’re saying you like Gu Yan and you want me to be your matchmaker?”
