26: Get Back To The Capital

Gao Xun plans to join the army, and Second Master of Gao Family had some friendship with Qingzhou governor, who was just enough to promote him in the army.

He'd been busy last few months, and he hadn't seen her for days. Today, he finally had the chance to see her. He stared at her for a long time, but still couldn't move his eyes away.

Xie Zhen laughed at him, "What are you looking at me for? Haven't you seen me for a long time, so you don't know me?"

Gao Xun regained his senses and coughed dryly. He took a sip of the tea and cleared his throat.

He could not believe her change. That was because she grow more charming in these two years. It had only been a few days, and her face was even more beautiful than the last time.

She sat at the table across from him, sipping the fresh-picked Biluochun Tea, her mouth full of the aroma of tea. "How is your military affairs going on?"

Gao Xun retracted his thoughts and placed the small teacup on the table. "It's pretty much all right now. In two days, I'll be going to live in the army for a period of time."

In the army, he wanted to do a good job. He was a person who had ambition and knew how to climb higher step by step. He was not willing to be in such a small corner of the Qingzhou Province and the army was the first step he took. When he heard that the capital was prosperou, he thought that he must go to the capital for the rest of his life.

Xie Zhen had no idea about it.

In fact, she also felt that the military camp was very suitable for Gao Xun. He was not the material to study, he was free to do as he pleased, and did not like restrictions, only the military can meet these conditions. They had grown up together, and she knew many things about him, what he wanted, what was right for him, and she had always supported him.

It was a long time since they last met, so the two of them sat and talked for a while. Both of them were talkative, so they didn't have to worry about not having a topic to talk to.

Late in the afternoon, Gao Xun decided to say goodbye.

He had said he was leaving a quarter of an hour ago, but he had no intention of leaving even now. He looked like he had something to say. He opened his mouth a few times, but no sound came out.

"Do you want to tell me something?" Xie Zhen asked.

Gao Xun finally nodded with an unreadable expression on his face. "You should know that for the past few days, my mother has been selecting for my marriage ..."

He had reached the age of marriage. Since last year, Madam Zhao had been planning to choose a good wife for him. All the influential families in Qingzhou were picked. Madam Zhao asked him which family he liked the most, but he said he didn't take any of them. Madam Zhao was angry. She thought that he wouldn't marry for the rest of his life. Recently, she was truly worried. If he joined the army, wouldn't getting married and having children be even more hopeless? That's why she forced him a little harder these days.

"What's the matter? You still don't like them?" Xie Zhen felt funny.

Gao Xun looked at her and nodded earnestly.

She spread out her hands and shook her head. "You don't like this, and you don't like that either. What kind of girl are you looking for?"

When she smiled, her eyes were curved, as bright as the stars.

Gao Xun watched her for a moment, then asked with a smile that was not a smile, "How about a girl like you?"

Xie Zhen was very surprised.
