I Became the Mother of His Child-Chapter 508: Why Another Soldier

"But the real question is, I actually feel an urge to agree. What should I do? What should I do?"

"How about it? Would you like to try dating me?" Zhao Nan asked again, his voice unconsciously carrying a hint of nervousness. The words he had just spoken were what he believed to be the kindest things he could say to a girl, and also the way his comrades in the army would charm their girlfriends and wives. He didn't understand it, nor had he tried it, but having heard it and remembered it, he thought he should bring it out and give it a try. Otherwise, he had no idea how to treat this young lady in front of him.

He wanted to give her the best in the world, even the lengthiest pursuit and waiting, but he didn't have the time. On this point, he couldn't satisfy her, but in other aspects, he would certainly present his whole world to her.

"…Okay, okay!" Song Chenxi blinked, then blinked again, and on instinct, she just blurted out her acceptance.

Actually, at this moment she herself was a little unclear about what exactly the acceptance coming out of her mouth meant, but the problem was, she had indeed agreed.

"You agreed," Zhao Nan's sharp eyes flickered, and then he stared at the young lady in disbelief, but the surprise in his tone couldn't be faked. Only Zhao Nan knew in his heart just how nervous he was at that moment, waiting for the young lady's acceptance or refusal. Either answer felt like a heavy and solemn verdict for him.

"Mhm!" Song Chenxi took a deep breath and nodded.

"Good girl." Zhao Nan instantly smiled, he could hardly believe it. His rough hand reached out to gently stroke the young lady's head.

"…" Song Chenxi continued to be stupefied, then like a proud Persian cat, she softened as she was gently stroked.

Ever since Song Chenxi had absent-mindedly consented to Zhao Nan, she had started a life of romance. Apart from having a meal at her aunt's house during the Mid-Autumn Festival during her five-day holiday, Zhao Nan had whisked her away to the Military District. God knows how he managed it, but anyway, the young lady had stayed at the Military District for several days.

If not for the end of the school holidays, Zhao Nan wasn't planning on letting her go.

At Z City Airport, a man in a crisp military uniform was walking hand in hand with a young lady: "Go to school and be good. Don't bother with those boys. I'll find a way to transfer to the Imperial Capital Military District, and then we can look for an opportunity to get our marriage license." Holding the young lady's hand, Zhao Nan had only felt that the days they spent together flew by. Originally he thought that the young lady had been fooled by his sweet talk, but after several days, she still seemed to be in a daze.

Seeing her like this, Zhao Nan was afraid that as soon as she returned to the Imperial City, she would forget about him. From the few days of interaction, he realized this girl was perfectly capable of such a hurtful act.

"Mhm, come quickly." Song Chenxi agreed and turned to grab his sleeve, facing this man she had only met for a few days, she suddenly felt reluctant to part. Everything was happening so fast, it almost didn't seem real, yet her heart refused to settle down.

Yet, the words about getting a marriage license also rang a bell in her mind, oh my gosh, things had escalated. Although her mother Xu Xiuxiu had told her to squander her youth as she pleased, she definitely hadn't allowed her to get married without even graduating from college. Would she be in trouble if this became known?

"Okay!" Zhao Nan, hearing the young lady's coquettish plea, wished he could accompany her to the Imperial City right that moment. If it weren't for the last bit of reason holding him back, he might have wanted to scoop the young lady up into his pocket and carry her with him everywhere.

"Then I'm off!" Song Chenxi looked at Zhao Nan with a tinge of reluctance in her voice.

"Call me when you get to the Imperial City," Zhao Nan pinched her little face and bent down to plant a kiss on her forehead.

"...Okay." Song Chenxi suddenly felt as if she was floating on a cloud the entire way, her mind completely absent, and then boarded the plane back to the Imperial City like a smitten fool.

"Han Xiaoer, I'm in love!" On the first day back to school after the break, upon seeing Han Yunfei, who had become her best friend since middle school and was now increasingly sardonic, the first thing she did was report the prime gossip she'd cooked up over the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"..." Sitting at her desk and reading, Han Yunfei looked up at Song Chenxi, gently pushed her glasses up the bridge of her nose, and then resumed reading with an expression of disbelief.

"Bang—" Song Chenxi, overflowing with passion, slammed her hands down on the desk in front of Han Yunfei: "Xiaoer, I'm serious." Song Chenxi had arrived in the Imperial City the day before, too excited to sleep at just the thought of Zhao Nan, and crucially, she'd even gone for an early morning run, yet she still felt incredibly energized. This unusual sensation wouldn't let her calm down; she desperately needed Han Xiaoer to throw some cold water on her and wake her up!

"Oh!" Han Yunfei responded without looking up.

Song Chenxi felt deeply wounded by her best friend's reaction. I mean, could she be any colder or more heartless?

"Han Xiaoer, as my best friend, can't you at least congratulate me?" Song Chenxi complained, slumped over her desk in mock distress.

"You say you're in a relationship, but where's the guy? Who is he, what's his name, and which class is he from?" Han Yunfei, evidently exasperated, closed her book and looked up to question Song Chenxi.

"He's not from our school." Song Chenxi's eyes lit up at the thought of Zhao Nan, a clear sign that she was indeed infatuated—it was an unmistakable look that one could hardly fake. Han Yunfei, initially dismissive, suddenly perked up: "Song Xiaosan, did you seriously find someone? How can this be? Best friend, weren't we supposed to enter a relationship together?" Han Yunfei's academic demeanor vanished in a burst of commanding presence, almost flipping the table with her reaction.

Seeing Han Yunfei finally drop her act, Song Chenxi broke into a smile and then shrugged apologetically, "Sorry! The other party was too formidable, he whisked me off my feet so effortlessly that I didn't even struggle. Next time, I'll try to make him do it all over again."

"..." Han Yunfei nearly rolled her eyes—the sight of Song Chenxi's utter bliss was positively blinding!

"Out with it! Who is he? The man who's capable enough to win over Qing University's beauty." Han Yunfei crossed her arms and fixed Song Chenxi with a 'spill the beans' look. She was genuinely curious—whoever could easily capture Song Chenxi was definitely no ordinary person!

In response to Han Yunfei's questioning, Song Chenxi didn't hide anything and freely spilled everything she knew about Zhao Nan.

"Song Chenxi, are you out of your mind? Your house is already swarming with military greens and you're not fed up? You even find yourself a soldier boyfriend; aren't you tired?!" Han Yunfei, also a child of the Military District, had grown up amidst it and was so tired of seeing the green uniforms that she thought Song Chenxi would share her sentiment. It turned out, however, that when Song Chenxi finally found someone to date, he was still, of all things, a soldier.
