The day before Qi Taiguo’s departure, he specifically took a day off. Cheng Su also didn’t go to work, spending the entire day inseparable from him. They didn’t go out; they stayed home all day, talking, reading, cooking together, enjoying their peaceful time together.
In the evening, to celebrate Party Founding Day, a movie was shown at the military base. Qi Taiguo took Cheng Su to watch it. When they got home, they were passionately intertwined, as if wanting to become one.
"I really can’t bear to see you go." Cheng Su tightly hugged his strong waist, her voice choked with emotion.
"In three months, I’ll be back. At the latest, you’ll see me in October." Qi Taiguo comforted her, saying, "Take good care of yourself while I’m not around. Don’t mess around or be capricious. Eat on time and don’t get sick."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Su’s tears welled up, and she nodded haphazardly.
Qi Taiguo looked down at her and laughed, "It’s not that big of a deal, and you’re already crying like a kid?"
"You’re so annoying!" Cheng Su cried and laughed, pouting, "Can’t I feel a little sentimental?"
"No, it’s bad for your health!"
"So you can just leave me then?" Cheng Su quipped back.
"I can’t bear to! I’d like to shrink you and carry you in my pocket!" Qi Taiguo said, "But unfortunately, I don’t have that magic."
Cheng Su laughed, "You mean like Thumbelina!"
"What’s Thumbelina?" Qi Taiguo was confused.
Cheng Su briefly told him the fairy tale of Thumbelina, and Qi Taiguo said, "That’s fake, right? There’s no such person."
Cheng Su burst out laughing, hoping for his fairytale romance; it was all in vain.
