The bustling commercial streets were filled with people. As an international metropolis near the sea, Eastern Sea City was a first-tier city that had access to the world. Although it was not as prosperous as the capital, it was still a first-class city.
After He Rui and Tang Xinyi came out of the military, they changed into casual clothes and came here. It was difficult for a couple in love to be far away, and He Rui was prepared to make it up to his girlfriend.
In addition, He Rui would be going to the army soon. It was not easy to come out of the army. The discipline was strict, and every vacation was uncertain.
"Hey, He Rui, let's go to the mall and buy some gifts. How about that?”As she spoke, she pulled He Rui into the mall.
"Oh, the ugly daughter-in-law knows how to be polite when she meets her parents-in-law!”
"What are you talking about? Who's ugly? He Rui, are you looking for death?" Tang Xinyi grabbed a piece of soft flesh on He Rui's waist and said fiercely.
"Sigh, sigh! I was wrong, my dear wife, please spare my life!" He wondered if every woman liked to pinch a man's waist.
Hearing He Rui surrender, Tang Xinyi proudly let go." Let's see if you still dare to talk nonsense."”
It was said that men and women in love were the most childish. If Gu Xiaojie saw the usually calm and strong Tang Gong become like this, she would be shocked.
In fact, He Zhijun was the brigade commander of the Wolf Fang Special Combat Brigade and had the rank of major general. His family would not lack these things. However, it was still a token of his girlfriend's appreciation. If He Rui did not allow it, she might be even more nervous.
Looking at the usually cold and elegant Tang Xinyi who was now nervously shopping for gifts, He Rui estimated that her serious attitude would not be any lower than when she was working.
He Rui, who was watching from the side, had a gentle look in his eyes. He could not help but hug his girlfriend's slender waist.
Tang Xinyi was shocked by He Rui's sudden attack and said shyly," Don't mess around. There are people watching."”
He Rui also knew that Tang Xinyi was shy, but he didn't want to let her go so easily, so he took the opportunity to kiss his girlfriend when Tang Xinyi was not paying attention. He Rui couldn't help but reminisce about the delicate softness.
Meanwhile, Tang Xinyi looked around nervously. When she didn't see anything, she heaved a sigh of relief. She turned her head and saw He Rui's reluctant expression. She glared at He Rui fiercely.
However, He Rui's skin was extremely thick, so he wasn't affected at all. Tang Xinyi couldn't do anything about it, but the joy that couldn't be concealed from the corner of her mouth showed her feelings.
"Xinyi, choose a few more dishes. We'll go visit my grandfather later.”He Rui's grandfather, He Baoguo, was He Chenguang's grandfather in the original novel. He Rui had not been there for half a year and missed him very much.
"Well, it's not convenient for me to go. After all, he's your grandfather.”
"It's okay. We can go directly to my house after we leave Grandpa's house. We can also let Grandpa see his future granddaughter-in-law.”
Actually, there was another reason. In the original novel, He Chenguang and Tang Xinyi became a couple in the end, but now Tang Xinyi was He Rui's. He wanted the two to get to know each other in advance to prevent misunderstandings in the future.
At He Baoguo's home in the Southeast Military District, Fan Tianlei came to visit He Baoguo today, hoping to agree to He Chenguang's request to join the army.
Originally, He Baoguo did not have such thoughts. The He family had been in the army for generations. Even his biological son, He Chenguang's father, had died in the battlefield. Moreover, he was old. He did not want to send his grandson to that cruel world again.
That was why he had always been against his grandson joining the army. However, Fan Tianlei's words today made him re-emerge from his years of retirement. Soldiers would only die in battle, not be scared to death.
At this moment, his heart was very complicated. He did not know what to do, so much so that he did not even realize that two people had appeared beside him.
He Rui looked at He Baoguo's absent-minded expression and laughed." Grandpa, what are you thinking about? You're so engrossed."”
"Oh! It's you, kid. Why did you graduate from university?”He Baoguo turned his head and was amused when he saw Tang Xinyi standing beside He Rui. He asked curiously,"This is…?"
"Oh, Grandpa, this is Tang Xinyi, your future granddaughter-in-law.”
When Tang Xinyi heard this, she secretly pinched He Rui and quickly greeted him." Hello, Chief."”
When He Baoguo heard this, he looked at the bags in their hands and couldn't help but smile." Good boy, you both have girlfriends. Not bad. Come in and let your grandmother take a good look. She often talks about you."”
Sure enough, when Grandma saw the two of them, they exchanged pleasantries again. He Rui, who came from the family, felt very close to them. He Rui looked at Grandma who was holding Tang Xinyi's hand and talking non-stop as if they had known each other for a long time.
She said to He Baoguo," Grandpa, where's Chenguang? Why don't I see him?"
"Oh, he went out for a run. He'll probably be back soon. Let's not talk about him anymore. Let's talk about you. Where are you going after graduating from university?”He Baoguo was very satisfied with this grandson of his. He had achieved so much at such a young age.
"The higher-ups originally planned to arrange for me to work in the intelligence department, but I plan to go to the grassroots to gain experience. Then, I will participate in the selection of the Wolf Fang Special Combat Brigade and enter the special forces. I will rely on my own ability to succeed on the battlefield.”
He Baoguo stopped and did not say anything. However, Grandma, who was beside him, said," Go to the battlefield? Ruirui, this isn't a joke. Our He family doesn't lack soldiers. Besides, isn't it good to work in an organization?”
He Rui saw that his grandmother was anxious and hurriedly advised,"Grandma, I know what I'm saying and what I'm facing in the future. But since I've decided to wear this military uniform, I'm a soldier. As a soldier, I've never retreated. Otherwise, it would be an insult to this military uniform.”
"Sigh, you've all grown up and don't listen to me anymore. Do you know how dangerous the battlefield is? Your uncle died on the battlefield.”
He Rui didn't know what to say about this topic. He only felt his heart sink. Tang Xinyi looked at He Rui's serious face and felt a pain in her heart. She slowly held her boyfriend's hand. She was also a soldier, and not just any soldier. She had carried out missions before, so she didn't object to her boyfriend joining the army. She was just silently worried for her boyfriend.
Feeling the tenderness in his hands, He Rui turned his head and saw Tang Xinyi's comforting gaze. He was touched and said in a hoarse voice,"Grandpa, Grandma, from the moment I put on the military uniform, I knew that I was destined to walk this path. I won't regret it.”
At this moment, He Chenguang, who had just returned from running outside, felt an unusual atmosphere in the house. He could not help but ask,"Grandpa, Grandma, what's going on? Yo, cousin is here?"
"Chenguang is back! How, how have you been recently? Are you alright?"
" It's alright…"
He Baoguo looked at the two grandsons in front of him with a dazed look in his eyes. He Rui was right. Since he was wearing this military uniform, he couldn't humiliate him. This reminded him of what Fan Tianlei had said this morning. Soldiers only died in battle, not scared to death.
He Rui didn't know that his few words had made He Baoguo think so much. The two brothers hadn't seen each other for half a year and missed each other.
"Come, cousin, let's have a spar. We haven't seen each other for half a year, let's see the difference between us.”He Chenguang couldn't wait to spar with He Rui when he was outside.
Since they were young, He Rui and He Chenguang had been learning Bajiquan. Because of his calm temperament, He Rui's martial arts had improved much more than He Chenguang's. Now that He Rui had reached the Small Success, he was much more powerful than He Chenguang. However, martial artists should not be afraid of challenges.
"Alright, I promise you. Let me see how much you've improved in the past six months.”
Tang Xinyi, who was standing at the side, couldn't help but feel worried when she saw the two's serious expressions.
Bajiquan belonged to the category of short-range boxing, and its movements were extremely fierce. In terms of attacking techniques, he emphasized on taking every inch and attacking hard. It truly had the characteristics of being hit, helped, squeezed, leaned, collapsed, and shaken. The force is exerted on the heel, the waist, and the fingertips, so the explosive force is extremely strong and full of the characteristics of martial arts. Because Bajiquan's movements were strong, simple, and unadorned, it had the momentum of shaking the sky and shaking the nine provinces with a stomp. Therefore, there was a saying that " Wen has Taiji to stabilize the world, and Wu has eight poles to stabilize the universe."
In other words, Bajiquan was a fist technique used to kill people in actual combat. It was the greatest feature of Bajiquan to rise and fall violently, to open the opponent's door forcefully, and to advance continuously.
Furthermore, the Bajiquan that He Rui practiced was slightly different from the traditional Bajiquan. This was a fist technique that he had combined with the Bajiquan that He Baoguo had taught him and his own martial arts after many years of learning from various martial arts schools.
He didn't know what it was called, but its power was top-notch, much more powerful than He Chenguang's Bajiquan. However, He Rui's current experience was not rich and he had not experienced life and death combat, so the fusion was limited.
However, it was definitely not something He Chenguang could compare to. Furthermore, He Chenguang was not a match for Bajiquan.
