Two days later, Chen Ming, who had arranged the special training plan for the next two months, finally had some free time.
It had been almost a week since he went out with Shen Xue.
Since he had some free time recently, he could bring Shen Xue out for a walk when he had the time to improve their relationship.
Driving the jeep, he soon arrived at the front of the political committee's courtyard and knocked on the door.
Not long after, the courtyard door opened. Shen Xue appeared in front of Chen Ming in a floral dress.
Chen Ming's eyes lit up.
Previously, Shen Xue had been dressed very plainly, but today, she was wearing a floral dress. She looked much more beautiful and very eye-catching.
When Shen Xue saw Chen Ming standing outside the courtyard, she was surprised. A sweet smile appeared on her face."Brother Ming, you're here!"
"I'm here to see you. Is the political committee here?" Chen Ming nodded.”
Shen Xue shook her head." Grandpa went to a meeting!”
"Then I'll take you to elope. Come with me!”Chen Ming jokingly held Shen Xue's hand and dragged her out.
When Shen Xue heard the word "elope", her face immediately turned red."Brother Ming, why did you elope? Don't your parents approve of us being together?”
"I was just joking with you!" Chen Ming smiled." I have nothing to do these two days. I'll bring you out to play. Leave a note for the political committee and tell them that you went out with me. Tell them not to worry!"”
Shen Xue nodded." Alright. If you want to go out, I'll change my clothes later!"”
Then, she turned around and went home. Thinking that Chen Ming was going to take her out, she was so happy that she even walked briskly.
After a while, Shen Xue came out. She changed into a pair of jeans and a denim shirt. She asked shyly,""Brother Ming, is it nice? I heard that this kind of clothes is very fashionable. This is the first time I'm wearing it. I don't know if it's suitable!”
Chen Ming sized him up and only had three words in his heart-this is so lame!
It was even worse than the floral dress from before!
Even though Shen Xue looked beautiful in everything with her looks and figure.
However, with Chen Ming's thirty years of aesthetic standards, the combination of jeans and denim was simply too old-fashioned.
Among the girls he knew in his previous life, those who paid a little attention to dressing up would definitely not wear jeans or denim clothes.
However, in the 1980s, jeans and denim clothes had just entered the Dragon Country from the West, and they were a symbol of fashion.
Many young people wore a denim outfit, a wavy hairstyle, and a pair of aviators. They felt that they were the king of the cat and walked around the streets, showing off.
Little did he know that this kind of attire would be completely eliminated in the near future.
Shen Xue saw Chen Ming's strange expression and could not help but ask,""Brother Ming, doesn't it look good?"
"Of course it looks good!" Chen Ming grinned." You're so pretty. You'll look good in any clothes. There's no need to go back and change. Let's just leave!"”
"Mm, alright!" Shen Xue nodded.
Since Chen Ming said that it looked good, she was relieved.
After the two of them got into the jeep, Chen Ming started the accelerator and drove towards the entrance of the military district.
"Brother Ming, where are we going to play?" Shen Xue tilted her head and asked.
Chen Ming thought for a moment and replied," We have plenty of time in the next two days. Let's go to the provincial capital and buy something for you!"”
Shen Xue was his girlfriend and his future wife. He felt bad that he had not given her anything after knowing her for so long.
In addition, after being reborn into this era, he spent most of his time in the army and had never had the chance to experience this innocent era.
Now that he finally had a few days of free time, he naturally had to go to the provincial capital for a stroll.
Moreover, the easiest way for couples to improve their relationship was to travel together.
If he brought Shen Xue out for a few days, his relationship with her would improve quickly.
It was simply killing three birds with one stone!
However, the provincial capital was quite far away from the military district.
In 1988, all kinds of freeways had not been built yet, so vehicles had to take the national highway, which was long and far away.
Chen Ming did not want to drive all the time. Otherwise, he would not have the time to interact with Shen Xue, so he went to the nearest bus station and bought a ticket to Provincial City with Shen Xue.
The two of them waited in front of the bus station for a while before an old long-distance bus drove into the station. Chen Ming and Shen Xue boarded the bus after checking their tickets.
The old bus did not have air conditioning, and the smell of car exhaust filled the cabin, making people feel a little disgusted.
Chen Ming also knew that this was the specialty of the bus in this era, so he did not care too much about the environment. He found a seat with Shen Xue and sat down.
After that, people boarded the bus one after another. When everyone was there, the driver threw the cigarette butt out of the bus and started the accelerator.
Rumble!
The engine of the old bus was very loud and noisy. After leaving the station, it began to drive along the national road towards the provincial capital.
Chen Ming sat in his seat and swept his gaze across the other people in the car.
The passengers on the bus sat quietly, either looking at the scenery along the way or closing their eyes to rest.
In the end, it was because they did not have a phone. Otherwise, they would have to lower their heads and swipe on the phone screen.
Shen Xue sat next to him. She seemed to be a little sleepy. Her little head swayed, and her eyes were about to close.
"If you want to sleep, lean on my shoulder and sleep for a while!”Chen Ming said gently.
"Yes!" Shen Xue replied in a daze. She leaned lazily on his shoulder like a kitten and soon fell asleep.
Looking at Shen Xue's soft and tender face, Chen Ming couldn't help but reach out and gently rub it. His movements were very light and didn't wake Shen Xue up.
After a while, the sky turned dark. The bus turned on its high beam lights and continued driving forward.
Chen Ming estimated that with the speed of the bus, it would take at least twelve o'clock at night to reach the provincial capital.
Time ticked by, and in the blink of an eye, it was already 11 pm.
Other than the continuous roar of the engine, the bus was very quiet. Most of the passengers were fast asleep in their seats.
Shen Xue had already woken up after sleeping for a few hours, but she was still leaning on him like a lazy cat. Her jade-like hands were interlocked with Chen Ming's.
Shen Xue had known him for some time now. She was no longer as shy as she was before. She was now more dependent on her boyfriend.
It was very dark in the car, with only two small lights on in the aisle. Chen Ming and Shen Xue were sitting in a corner. At this time, most of the passengers were already fast asleep, so Chen Ming's mind became active.
He lowered his head and looked at Shen Xue's pretty face. Shen Xue raised her limpid eyes and met his gaze.
Everything was done without a word. They only needed to make eye contact.
Chen Ming lowered his head while Shen Xue closed her eyes gently.
Bang!
After a long time, the two separated.
Shen Xue's fair face flushed red, and her eyes were filled with embarrassment.
On the other hand, Chen Ming was beaming with joy. This time, he had finally completed what he could not do last time!
At this moment, he suddenly noticed that the bus was slowly slowing down.
He looked ahead in confusion and saw more than ten people standing in a row not far away, blocking the intersection with cold weapons such as iron bars and machetes.
Chen Ming was stunned, but he immediately understood. He had encountered a robbery!
In the 1980s, public security was not good, and there was no mobile communication. There were often bandits on the national highway who would rob people and run away after a wave of robbery. By the time the police arrived, the people would have long run away.
There were even some extremely vicious bandits who wanted to kill them.
Chen Ming did not expect that he would run into such a mess when he finally went out.
