I relied on my heart to play badly in front of my husband, an officer.

Chapter 141: Finding a Partner

The autumn night wind blows gently, and the sound of insects can be heard on both sides of the road.

On the way home, Bai Youyou held Lin Xiaolin's hand and walked leisurely, but he looked very serious as he talked to her.

"Xiao Lin, do your parents know that you ran away to my place?"

Lin Xiaolin looked at the sunset that was just a little bit left on the horizon, and replied to Bai Youyou in a tone that was not very pleasant, "You should know! I left a note for them when I left."

Bai Youyou turned to look at her friend, "Haven't you always lived in the factory dormitory? Why did you go back home?"

Lin Xiaolin said calmly, "Oh! My mom lied to me and said my dad wasn't feeling well and asked me to stay home for a few days to take care of him, so I went back."

Bai Youyou was a little surprised. "Your mom lied to you and said your dad wasn't feeling well and wanted you to come home and take care of him. She just wanted you to marry the person they found for you, right?"

"Well, on the third day of my stay at home, they brought someone home and let me spend time with men directly."

Bai Youyou looked at her friend's indifferent expression and was very angry about what she said.

"How could your parents do this? They just find a random man for you and let you marry him. Isn't this the same as harming you?

What if that man is a bad person? What would you do? Even if that man is not a bad person, but he has violent tendencies and likes to beat women? What can you do?

Well, even if he doesn't have the above two points, what if he has a wicked mother-in-law and other bad habits? How will you cope with it?

Aren’t they just pushing you into the fire pit?”

Seeing that Bai Youyou felt very sorry for her, Lin Xiaolin smiled.

"Okay, okay, the man my parents found for me is actually pretty good in every way, not as embarrassing as you said.

That's right! He's a bit older, and he has a son and a daughter. Other than that, everything else is really good.

He's doing a good job, and they say he's a good person, too. He seems hardworking and doesn't seem like the type to hit a woman."

Bai Youyou became even angrier when she heard what Lin Xiaolin said.

"Xiao Lin, how old are you? They want you to be a stepmother. Don't they know how difficult it is to be a stepmother? You can have your own children, so why do you have to be a stepmother at such a young age?

Isn't this just a waste of yourself?

Xiaolin, tell me honestly, what does the person your parents introduced you to do, and how old is he?

Lin Xiaolin looked at Bai Youyou with a smile, "Youyou, it's great to be friends with you."

"Don't talk to me about that useless stuff. Tell me honestly now, what does that man do? How old is he? How old is his child?"

Bai Youyou asked Lin Xiaolin in a very impatient tone, which made Lin Xiaolin burst out laughing when she saw her like this.

"Okay," I said. "The man is the deputy director of my dad's factory, 39 years old. As for the children, my mom said the eldest is about ten or eight, I forgot. Anyway, the second one is five."

Bai Youyou widened her eyes and said in disbelief:

"Xiao Lin, are your parents crazy? They're 39 years old, almost 20 years older than you, and they have two children. Are they really planning to let you go and sacrifice the rest of your life for it?"

Lin Xiaolin sighed, "Youyou, you know our family. If I don't agree, my parents will definitely not let it go.

So, I pretended to agree to them, but in fact, I secretly came to you.

Youyou, let me tell you, the deputy factory director and my parents promised to treat me well, but I don’t quite believe him.”

"Haha, promise? This kind of promise is the most unreliable. What if he changes his mind in the future? Your parents are really naive." Bai Youyou calmed down now.

Lin Xiaolin said with joy, "That's right, my parents are really naive. I won't marry him anyway. If they want someone to marry me, then I can find someone myself!"

"Xiaolin, don't worry, I will find you someone who is good in all aspects. We don't want to marry an old man." Bai Youyou was now determined to find a partner for Lin Xiaolin in the army.

As long as the two of them are in love, no one can separate them.

"Hehe, I knew you were the best." Lin Xiaolin smiled and pulled Bai Youyou.

As the two were talking, a few young men in military uniforms came towards them.

Bai Youyou's eyes lit up, and he pulled Lin Xiaolin forward. One of the handsome and sunny warriors asked curiously:

"What's up, comrades?"

Bai Youyou said openly, "Comrades, you're all single, right? Do you have someone you like? If not, I can introduce you to someone!"

The soldiers looked at each other, then nodded with red faces.

Bai Youyou pointed at Lin Xiaolin and said, "This is my good friend, Lin Xiaolin. She's a really nice girl. If you think it's okay, I'll talk to your Captain Sheng about this."

Lin Xiaolin was so embarrassed by Bai Youyou's bold words that she lowered her head. She secretly held Bai Youyou's hand, signaling her not to say anything more.

The soldiers laughed in a friendly manner, and one of the older ones said, "Sister-in-law, we soldiers are very disciplined, and marriage must also be conducted according to the rules.

But it seems that Comrade Lin is indeed a good girl. If she is willing, she can participate in the blind date activities organized by our army."

Lin Xiaolin raised her head, her eyes full of hope, and said to Bai Youyou: "Youyou, this sounds great."

Bai Youyou nodded excitedly, "Okay, okay, when is your blind date event? We'll go then."

The older soldier replied, "Okay, sister-in-law, the time is set for next Sunday. The location is in our unit's activity room. You can ask the regiment commander to take you there then."

Bai Youyou quickly agreed, "Okay, we'll be there on time."

"Okay, sister-in-law, we'll take our leave then." After making things clear, the soldiers said goodbye and left.
