Chapter 7: Meeting Liang Chen

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lu Ming quickly took the three bags of candies that Chen Lan handed to him, cradling them carefully in his arms. Then, he solemnly saluted her and said, “Sister-in-law, don’t worry, we will complete the mission!”

She smiled as she watched Lu Ming’s salute. She couldn’t explain why, but she felt truly touched. However, before she could respond, Lu Ming continued, “I wish you and Commander a happy and harmonious marriage, with many children to come!”

Lu Ming’s voice was loud and clear, attracting the attention of people passing by.

She suddenly became the center of attention, and she wished she could find a hole to hide in. She waved her hands in embarrassment and said, “Alright, alright, I got it. Now, go inside and share the candies with everyone.”

Seemingly aware of Chen Lan’s embarrassment, Lu Ming scratched his bald head in embarrassment and quickly ran off.

As she watched Lu Ming’s figure disappear, she couldn’t help but shake her head in amusement. The soldiers’ Tang Ye led seemed to be cut from the same cloth.

Since she completed her task, she didn’t plan to linger. She bade farewell to the other soldier standing guard nearby and was about to leave.

“Chen Lan, what brings you here?” However, she had only taken a few steps when she heard someone call her from behind.

She turned around and saw a man standing not far away.

The man was dressed impeccably in a military uniform, with every button fastened meticulously. Unlike Tang Ye, who had a rugged, sun-kissed complexion and exuded a tough, masculine aura that hinted at his experience on training grounds and battlefields.

The man in front of her had fair skin and a slender figure. If he were dressed in a long robe instead of a military uniform, he would resemble a refined scholar or teacher.

As he gazed at Chen Lan, his face displayed a mixture of shock and a hint of disdain and impatience.

She could tell that this man must be none other than the original protagonist, Liang Chen, whom the original character had loved but couldn’t be with. Judging by his expression, he probably assumed that she had come to see him.

“I’ve come to deliver something to Tang Ye. Why? Anything else?”

Chen Lan’s tone was far from warm, and she even seemed quite indifferent. It was a stark contrast to how she used to act around Liang Chen, where she would eagerly approach him.

In response to her attitude, Liang Chen seemed momentarily taken aback, his mouth opened as if he had forgotten what he wanted to say.

“If there’s nothing else, I’m leaving,” she stated flatly. She had little patience for refined egoists like the male lead and simply wanted to leave.

“Wait.” Surprisingly, Liang Chen, who initially seemed to want to keep his distance, stopped her once again. He jogged to her side.

She took a deep breath and then forced a smile that couldn’t be considered pleasant as she asked, “What’s the matter?”

Liang Chen was still very uncomfortable with Chen Lan’s attitude and appeared awkward. “Nothing. I just wanted to tell you that you and Tang Ye are already married. Don’t come looking for me anymore, and let’s reduce our interactions in the future. Tang Ye is a good person. You two should live your lives well.”

Chen Lan rolled her eyes at his words. She wondered why he was saying this. If he truly wanted them to live their lives peacefully, he should just stay away from her.

“Our marital affairs don’t concern you. I have other matters to attend to, so please don’t block my way.”

Liang Chen had already figured out why she had such an attitude. She must resent and regret because he was unwilling to marry her, and her current behavior was probably just a way to seek his attention. She was using delivering things to Tang Ye as an excuse to see him. He felt even more disdain for her.

“That’s all I have to say. Do as you please,” Liang Chen concluded. He stepped aside and stood there with an air of righteousness, leaving Chen Lan feeling inexplicably annoyed.

“Chen Lan! You are pestering Liang Chen again!”

Chen Lan didn’t want to have any private interactions with Liang Chen, but every time she tried to leave, it didn’t work out.

“Chen Lan, you are shameless! You’re already married, and yet you’re so eager to look for Liang Chen. Are you trying to cheat on Tang Ye?”

“Which eye of yours saw me pestering him? Right now, I’m the one who wants to leave, but he’s blocking my way, okay?”

Sun Zhi walked up to Liang Chen and shielded him from Chen Lan, looking at her with disdain. “You’re just an unwanted b*tch. Would Liang Chen ever block you? If it weren’t for that ‘green-haired turtle'[1.derogatory Chinese slang meant to insult] Tang Ye, you probably wouldn’t have a future…”

‘Slap!’

Before Sun Zhi could finish his sentence, she stepped forward and swung her arm, slapping him across the face.
