Huo Jingrui looked in the direction of the voice: "Deputy Regimental Commander Geng, what is this?"
Geng Qiusheng said somewhat embarrassedly: "There’s something I’d like to discuss with you."
Huo Jingrui asked in confusion: "What is it?"
What matter could there be between them, when they don’t belong to the same regiment?
Geng Qiusheng scratched his head and pointed to the empty space ahead: "Deputy Commander Huo, let’s go over there and talk."
He was really embarrassed to bring this up, but his wife was determined to live in an apartment, and the logistics department had told him that he applied late. The last apartment in the newly constructed building was allocated to Deputy Commander Huo.
To live in an apartment, he would either have to wait for a new one or exchange with someone else, so he thickened his face and came over.
Huo Jingrui nodded and walked over first: "Go ahead, what’s the matter?"
Geng Qiusheng handed a cigarette to Huo Jingrui, but Huo Jingrui usually didn’t smoke much anyway, and Yunyi had said smoking wasn’t allowed since they were preparing for pregnancy. He waved his hand: "In the end, it irritates the throat."
Seeing Huo didn’t smoke, Geng lit it for himself, took a deep drag: "Deputy Commander Huo, here’s the thing..."
Huo Jingrui understood. Deputy Commander Geng had assumed the military spouse qualification after three years of marriage, but then his mother fell ill, so his wife had stayed home to care for her for seven years.
A few months ago, Deputy Commander Geng’s mother passed away, and he planned to bring his wife and children to live with him in the military. At home, he’d casually mentioned the new apartment building the army had constructed, which excited his wife, Feng Qiaomei.
Since then, she became fixated on living in an apartment, and their three children were clamoring to go live with their dad in the army apartment.
