It's not that Lin Chuan doesn't like Miss Lan, on the contrary, within the military, Miss Lan is every man's goddess, possessing many traits that women have.

She has a beautiful and delicate face; she has a graceful and voluptuous figure; she has a cold and stunning temperament; and even more, she has unbeatable strength.

It must be said, Miss Lan truly is the ideal woman or even goddess in the heart of any man. It must also be admitted that Lin Chuan actually has feelings for Miss Lan, and he has considered being with her many times. But in the end, he picks up these thoughts only to gently put them down again.

Some words are not forgotten just because you say you will forget them, they are not lines from a script, spoken and then etched like a brand leaving marks. Some love cannot be escaped just because you don't want to face it, perhaps it will fade with time, but it still tightly surrounds your heart, unable to let go.

Those who promised forever, somehow scattered. In the end, after much thought, it remained unclear what the initial reason was for the separation. Then, you suddenly realize, love is so fragile. It can withstand storms, but not the mundane; together in a tempest, but scattered once the skies clear.

Perhaps it was just a fit of anger, perhaps just a trivial matter. Fantasies of reconciliation's sweetness, or the embrace upon reunion. At that time, would it be with tears and fists pounding on each other, or just silly laughter, what a beautiful picture that would be.

Unexpectedly, that goodbye was for a lifetime. Thus, everyone has their own life, loving someone else. Past love, at this moment, is unrelated. Even in the same little city, they never met again.

......

The next day, Lin Chuan drove to the airport.

This time, only Miss Lan came to see him off. The two were still silent all the way in the car.

Until Lin Chuan printed his boarding pass, and was about to enter the security checkpoint, the long-silent Miss Lan finally spoke up. She looked up at Lin Chuan, her eyes brimming with tears, and said, "Lin Chuan, you go find your love, where should I go?"

Lin Chuan, carrying a hint of guilt inside, said, "Xiao Lan, you will definitely find a man who is even better than me."

"No!" Miss Lan suddenly shouted, throwing herself into Lin Chuan's arms, saying, "I, Miss Lan, will only like you in this lifetime, my heart only belongs to you, and it will never possibly like someone else."

Lin Chuan hugged her tightly, helplessly saying, "Xiao Lan, why do you do this?"

"My attitude towards love is, I would rather be lacking than indiscriminate," Miss Lan looked up at Lin Chuan and said, "I will never compromise, as long as you are not married to another woman, there is still hope for me. Lin Chuan, I hope you understand what I mean."

"I..." Lin Chuan hesitated. To be clear, he truly understood. Xiao Lan was someone who was extremely faithful to love; once she liked a man, she would stick to it till the end; to be unclear, he also really didn't understand, knowing full well that the other party already had a girlfriend, why still persist? Do you have to wait until you hit the wall? Do you have to see the Yellow River before giving up hope?

Lin Chuan let out a deep sigh.

The airport, seemed like a scene of life-and-death parting. Miss Lan knew she could not stop Lin Chuan, she also knew that Lin Chuan's heart was not with her at the moment, so, she could only watch helplessly as Lin Chuan left, watching Lin Chuan turn and enter the security checkpoint. In the end, Lin Chuan's figure disappeared at the security desk.

Miss Lan stood alone in the airport, longingly watching Lin Chuan leave.

Once Lin Chuan left, Miss Lan immediately became the target of many men's pursuits.

In many people's eyes, Miss Lan's expression of such pain, such sadness, must surely be because of a broken heart, so, they decided to step forward and try their luck, perhaps if they succeed, they might have a lifetime of bliss; even if they don't succeed, it seems there's no loss.

Within the airport hall, many people were watching from afar. Some commented on Miss Lan, some were just there for the spectacle. Of course, more people were admiring Miss Lan's figure.

Miss Lan, in any crowd of women, would always be considered the cream of the crop. Whether it's her face or her body, any woman standing in front of Miss Lan would probably feel three parts ashamed, and it was such a girl that made many men long with anticipation.

Among them, there were some bold ones.

There was one, wearing sunglasses, with a corpulent figure, dressed in a floral shirt, and wearing a pair of casual leather shoes. In one hand, he carried a suitcase with universal wheels. He had one hand in his pocket, and with the other, he pushed the suitcase, slowly walking toward Miss Lan.

"Miss, are you interested in entering the entertainment industry?" The man took off his sunglasses, then smilingly handed a business card to Miss Lan, smiling, "I am an agent from Huayu Media, may I know if you are interested in developing with our company?"

Miss Lan glanced at him and laughed, "Sorry, I'm not interested."

The man was stunned; usually, almost no one would refuse him. After all, as a talent scout, although he might meet people who doubted him, he never had someone reject him. Clearly, the man did not know what to say next, because he was extremely eager for Miss Lan to join him. Of course, what he was most desperately after was Miss Lan's body. Such a beautiful, iconic, and elegant girl, if he couldn't sleep with her, it would be a great pity.

"This..." the man hurriedly added, "Don't you want to become a diva like Na Ying, Fan Bingbing...? After becoming famous, you will have thousands of fans, and thousands of admirers."

"I don't want to." Miss Lan said expressionlessly.

"This..." The man was immediately dumbfounded, he had never in his life seen a girl who didn't want to become famous. The man quickly said, "But you can make a lot of money, live a worry-free life, reside in a luxury house, drive luxury cars. You can buy Hermès bags, and buy whatever you want."

"Not necessary." Miss Lan shook her head again.

"Then what do you want?" the man asked eagerly.

"I want the person who just went in to come out," Miss Lan pointed towards the receding figure of Lin Chuan.

The man's face turned awkward, saying, "Miss, I can't help you with that."

Having said that, the man could only leave helplessly.

Before long, another man dressed in a white suit arrived, sophisticated and handsome. He spotted Miss Lan, standing alone in the airport. His eyes lit up, and he hurriedly approached Miss Lan.

"Miss, hello," the man in the suit said with a beaming smile, "I'm new here and not very familiar with Beijing, would you be interested in being my guide? Show me around Beijing city?"

"I'm busy," Miss Lan said and turned to leave.

The man in the suit didn't seem to give up; he quickly followed her, excitedly saying, "Miss, perhaps we can get to know each other. For example, we could have dinner together tonight, what do you think?"

"No need," Miss Lan walked away.

The man in the suit didn't give up but chased after her urgently, mumbling all the way from the airport hall to the parking lot. Not until Miss Lan got into a car did the man freeze in shock. The car Miss Lan boarded was an Audi, which was fine, but the license plate was extremely conspicuous. It was not just a military plate, but one with a single-digit number. The man in the suit completely fell apart.

He watched Miss Lan's departing figure in shock, rendered speechless.

"A military plate?" The man in the suit rubbed his eyes, saying, "And it belongs to a top military official, my goodness, this girl has such a solid backing. No, I must hurry and catch up to her, make her my girlfriend, then I can strut around Beijing with clout."

After saying that, the man in the suit chased after her quickly.

Unfortunately, by the time he made it out of the parking lot, the black Audi had long since vanished without a trace. Annoyed, he said, "Damn it, didn't catch up, it's killing me, I've lost a powerful support."

...............

Jiangbei City.

In Tang Yumeng's office. It has been nearly half a month since Lin Chuan left. During these two weeks, Tang Yumeng greatly missed Lin Chuan, with the feeling of longing growing stronger by the day, wishing she could see Lin Chuan right away.

Without knowing when it started, a photo frame appeared on Tang Yumeng's desk. Inside the frame was a photo from a fire scene. Lin Chuan, wearing a safety helmet and a white shirt with casual pants, with Jiangbei City's avant-garde Chemical Plant in the background, flames reaching for the sky, and it seemed like the smelting furnace in the back might collapse at any moment. There was also a look of anxiety and tension on Lin Chuan's face.

This photo was taken by Xiao Xue with her mobile phone, which she later kept, and then went as far as to print this symbolic photo to put in a frame on her desk.

Tang Yumeng rested her chin on her hands, gazing intently at Lin Chuan in the photo frame.

"You rascal, you've been gone for half a month; you should be back by now, shouldn't you?" Tang Yumeng pouted her red lips.

Tang Yumeng fiddled with the photo frame and 'annoyedly' pointed at Lin Chuan in the frame with her slender finger, scolding, "You jerk, hurry back, or else, don't blame me for being unkind."

At that moment, the office door was pushed open.

Xiao Xue walked in with a smile and said, "Secretary Tang, what's wrong with you?"

"Ah?" Tang Yumeng became flustered and hurriedly tried to fix her messy hair, her face slightly red as she said, "Nothing... nothing, I was just resting my head for a bit."

Xiao Xue giggled mischievously, her eyes wickedly fixing on the photo frame on Tang Yumeng's desk, raising an impish smile, "Oh, missing Lin Chuan again? Hehe, but really, that guy has been gone for so long, he hasn't come back yet, it's been almost half a month, right?"
