Chapter 113

Yun Xiaolu hadn't figured out how to tell her parents about Xu Chao. It wasn't because she was worried about their opposition, considering that her two older brothers were also in the military, so her parents were quite understanding of this profession.

The reason she didn't want to talk about it was that she hadn't figured out how to define her future with Xu Chao yet. They were still in the early stages of their relationship, and they hadn't considered many issues regarding the future. If her parents were to know, it would be seen as entering the "marriage discussion" stage, which was far from where she and Xu Chao currently stood.

But could she tell her parents that they were currently in an uncertain "trial stage"? She dared not say that, as Zhao Yueji and Yun Haisheng might break both her and Xu Chao's legs. In the eyes of the older generation, it would be considered "irresponsible and playing around."

So Yun Xiaolu simply explained to her parents that they were "increasing their understanding of each other through letter correspondence." There were still many issues they needed to consider between them, and these matters were far from being discussed on the table.

Xu Chao had his convictions, and Yun Xiaolu had her own dreams. So from the very beginning, when they established their relationship, Yun Xiaolu understood that they might have a "marathon-style" love affair.

"My parents are not easy to fool." When Yun Xiaolu left her eldest brother's house, she felt somewhat deflated. After being away from her parents' supervision for these past few years, suddenly receiving their "concern" was something she wasn't quite used to.

Xu Nianyun had listened to the entire conversation, and she felt that every child and parent seemed to enter this strange cycle of tug-of-war. Parents constantly worried about various issues, while children constantly sought to escape their parents' concerns.

"They will understand. After all, they have even tried to accept your second sister's situation."

Yun Shuang had chosen not to marry, and Zhao Yueji and Yun Haisheng had gone from "urging" to "numbness." Once they realized they couldn't influence Yun Shuang's choices, they seemed to have accepted their fate.

Now their attention seemed to have shifted to Yun Fan and Yun Xiaolu. Yun Fan's act of "reporting" this time was perhaps an attempt to divert trouble towards them.

Walking down the street, Yun Xiaolu let the evening breeze brush against her face. In truth, she felt a bit sorry for her parents. It seemed like the days of worrying about their children would never come to an end.

Xu Chao's phone call came unexpectedly. Yun Xiaolu didn't know how Xu Chao found out about her parents coming to the capital. She hadn't mentioned it, but Xu Chao still knew.

"Are you able to make phone calls conveniently now?" Yun Xiaolu was aware of the strict level of confidentiality in Xu Chao's work.

"I have a new assignment and will be in H Province for a while. During this period, I can communicate with the outside world via phone."

Xu Chao accepted a new appointment to establish a new directly subordinate reconnaissance battalion for the armored division in H Military District. He would probably be busy here for the next year or two.

In fact, the journey from H Province Military District to the capital was only an 8-hour drive. He received this appointment shortly after submitting his love report, making it difficult to say that there wasn't some thought from the leaders taking care of him.

As soon as Yun Fan learned about this, he immediately informed his own parents about their trip to the capital, perhaps hoping to add some stability to their future.
