Chapter 1649: Chapter 1649: Because I Love You 79
Ding Long only stayed at the base for a few hours before leaving, leaving a ssage for his comrades to attend his engagent banquet if they had ti, and he didn’t specially say goodbye to Lan Li before leaving the base.
When Lan Li returned from outside, he naturally heard about Ding Long coming to the base to distribute wedding candies. Passing through the crowd, he could hear everyone talking about Ding Long and Ding Jinshi’s engagent banquet. However, as soon as they saw him, they tacitly fell silent and scattered.
The night Ding Long left the base, Lan Li had insomnia for the first ti in a long while.
The last ti he was this sleepless was the day he personally broke up with Ding Jinshi. Afterward, he stayed in the hospital taking care of Gu En and didn’t have ti to think about Ding Jinshi. Although Ding Jinshi returned to M Country, he had thought about going after her, but ultimately, he took no action.
“Jinshi is getting engaged, how do you feel?”
Suddenly, the old political commissar appeared behind Lan Li. The old commissar was also getting on in years, and it would be a couple more years before he retired. He had watched Lan Li and Ding Jinshi’s relationship unfold over the years. He had thought that after his retirent, he would be able to attend Lan Li and Ding Jinshi’s wedding banquet, but unexpectedly, today he was indeed attending Ding Jinshi’s wedding banquet, but the one getting engaged to Ding Jinshi wasn’t Lan Li.
“What could I feel? It’s been so many years. I’ve long since let it go.” Upon hearing a voice behind him, Lan Li instinctively glanced back, then nodded to the old commissar before turning back to continue smoking by the wall. At his feet was a pile of cigarette butts, indicating that he had been standing there for quite so ti.
“On a cold day, here smoking alone, and you say you’ve long since let it go? Do you think I’m too old to understand the love affairs of young people?” The old commissar exposed Lan Li’s words. Seeing the cigarette at Lan Li’s fingertips, he refrained from ntioning the military regulations, fully aware of how much Ding Long and Ding Jinshi’s upcoming engagent was troubling Lan Li’s mind.
Though Lan Li and Ding Jinshi had broken up for many years, Lan Li always appeared nonchalant and never ntioned Ding Jinshi to anyone. Not even her na. Everyone thought Lan Li no longer had feelings for Ding Jinshi and had truly moved on, but the old commissar knew better. The more Lan Li cared, the less he showed it on the surface.
“The fact that Ding Long ca specially to the base to distribute wedding candies today shows he truly cares about Ding Jinshi. No matter what, Jinshi deserves soone who treats her with care and dedication. That girl, she’s stubborn. She didn’t return to the country for many years after you two broke up. Now, finally, Ding Long has brought her back. I know it pains you, but I still want to say, seeing Ding Jinshi with Ding Long, I feel genuinely happy for her. Back then, when you weren’t at the base, you didn’t see how long Jinshi waited for you. Initially, she stood at the base’s entrance and wouldn’t co in. In the dead of night, she had such bravery, not fearing any snakes or beasts in the mountains. Eventually, I couldn’t bear to watch any longer and personally brought her into the base, staying with her all night. She didn’t say a word, just silently waited for your return.”
