"Then let's go, don't waste time here!"
"Besides, if this happens again next time, don't be so impulsive, it will delay you!"
After confirming his guess, the commander-in-chief nodded to Li Qiufan and gave some instructions.
"I know Commander-in-Chief, please take care of yourself!"
Li Qiufan knew that there was no point in staying any longer. After saluting the commander-in-chief with a military salute, Li Qiufan set off on his way back to Yunnan.
After returning to Yunnan, Li Qiufan was intercepted by Zhao Gang before he could reach his office.
"I told you, Old Zhao, please pay attention to the impact. This is in a military area. What kind of nonsense are you talking about!"
After stopping Li Qiufan, Zhao Gang dragged him towards his office. Seeing this, Li Qiufan could only say something helplessly.
"Stop talking nonsense, what's going on?"
After arriving at his office, Zhao Gang first closed the door and windows, and then asked Li Qiufan.
"It's okay, but the Commander-in-Chief is stepping down."
Li Qiufan did not hide it and told Zhao Gang the result immediately.
"What? The commander-in-chief wants to step down?"
After hearing Li Qiufan's words, Zhao Gang's eyes widened immediately and he asked him with disbelief.
"Well, that's the result."
Li Qiufan nodded towards Zhao Gang and said in a very calm tone.
"How could this be! How could Commander-in-Chief..."
"Old Zhao! This matter is over, don't continue to struggle!"
Zhao Gang couldn't accept the outcome of this matter, and wanted to express his dissatisfaction to the commander-in-chief.
But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Li Qiufan, who also emphasized that the matter was over.
"Alas~"
After hearing Li Qiufan's words, Zhao Gang stopped talking and could only sigh helplessly after being silent for a long time.
"Okay, this matter is over, let's prepare for the wedding of you sour scholar!"
Li Qiufan raised his hand and patted Zhao Gang on the shoulder, then brought the topic to marriage.
"You're such a bitch, you can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth!"
Zhao Gang slapped Li Qiufan's hand away angrily, then glared at him and said.
"You are really using your good intentions as a donkey's liver and lungs. I will go home and be miserable. You can just stay here with your stupid self!"
Seeing that Zhao Gang actually insulted him, Li Qiufan responded mercilessly, and then prepared to go home.
"Ahem, why are you so anxious to go home? After all, you have experience in getting married. Please give me some advice later!"
Seeing that Li Qiufan was really about to leave, Zhao Gang quickly stopped him, then coughed twice awkwardly and said.
"Hmph! I really owe you!"
Li Qiufan snorted angrily when he saw this, but he took back his step.
Then Li Qiufan told Zhao Gang about his marriage experience, and Zhao Gang couldn't help but nod.
At this time, on the other side, the commander-in-chief's affairs were completely over.
That person personally expressed his position at the meeting, and also presented the Commander-in-Chief's application for retiring and recuperating, blocking everyone's mouths.
Time soon came to Zhao Gang's wedding day, and the entire military region was beaming with joy.
Li Qiufan became the witness of the marriage without hesitation. After all, if it hadn't been for him, Zhao Gang and Feng Nan might not have met each other in this life.
After Zhao Gang's wedding ended, Li Qiufan once again welcomed a happy event, that is, Tian Yu was pregnant again.
Li Qiufan was looking forward to this second child, because what he liked most was not his son, but the little cotton-padded jacket.
In the end, Tian Yu did not disappoint him and successfully gave birth to a daughter, whom Li Qiufan named Li Ruiya.
Since Li Ruiya was born, Li Qiufan has been running home whenever he can, just to spend time with his little cotton-padded jacket. This made Zhao Gang wonder if he was in a hurry to make a third one.
Time soon came to the end of 1960, and Li Qiufan, who was working that day, suddenly received a call from the Commander-in-Chief.
"Commander-in-Chief, what's wrong with you?"
After picking up the phone, Li Qiufan asked the commander-in-chief doubtfully.
Since the commander-in-chief stepped down, the two have barely spoken on the phone.
After all, the commander-in-chief is no longer in his position. If he often contacts Li Qiufan, the commander of the border area, it will be easy for him to fall into disfavor.
"You brat, I heard that Xiaotian gave birth to another daughter for you?"
After Li Qiufan finished speaking, the commander-in-chief on the other side of the phone asked him.
"Yes, is it possible that you are always ready to make up for me?"
Li Qiufan immediately laughed after hearing the commander-in-chief's words, and then joked with him.
"Haha, I really mean that!"
"I plan to go to Yunnan to spend the Chinese New Year this year and see your son and daughter!"
The commander-in-chief also smiled, and then stated the purpose of the call.
"Are you serious?!"
After hearing the commander-in-chief's words, Li Qiufan was very surprised. He had not seen the commander-in-chief for a long time.
"Of course it's true. I don't know how long I have to wait for you to bring your children to the capital. I might as well go directly to Yunnan to see you!"
The commander-in-chief smiled again, and then mentioned the last time he was in Jiujiang, where he told Li Qiufan to take his son to the capital to meet him.
"Um...ahem, you can't blame me for this. You also know that I didn't have an order..."
"Okay, I know your kid's difficulties, why don't you just want to go to Yunnan to see it!"
After hearing the Commander-in-Chief talking about asking him to take his children to the capital, Li Qiufan coughed twice in embarrassment, and then prepared to explain, but the Commander-in-Chief interrupted him before he could finish speaking.
"Then you always come to Yunnan, that..."
"I told that person a few days ago, and he said that he would also like to meet your son and daughter if he has the opportunity!"
Seeing that the commander-in-chief understood him, Li Qiufan said no more. Then he became worried about whether the commander-in-chief knew about coming to Yunnan.
After all, the Commander-in-Chief is not an ordinary person. Although he has retired now, he will always attract attention wherever he goes.
But before Li Qiufan could finish speaking, the commander-in-chief interrupted him and said that that person had agreed to the matter.
"Then when will you arrive? I will pick you up then!"
After hearing that the man agreed, Li Qiufan immediately became excited, and then asked about the arrival time of the Commander-in-Chief.
"It's just for these few days, you kid, don't worry about me, I'll go there by myself then!"
The Commander-in-Chief has not determined a specific time yet, and he only called Li Qiufan to make preparations.
"That's it, let's talk about it when you get old to Yunnan!"
After hearing the commander-in-chief's words, Li Qiufan could only agree, and then the two hung up the phone.
