Chapter 495: The Model Military Spouse

The old commander tapped on the desk repeatedly with his finger, a subconscious motion he made when deep in thought. The young officer standing before him knew this well and stood ramrod straight, letting the old commander ponder to his heart's content.

Indeed, at this moment, the old commander was recalling how several of his old comrades had come to his home to celebrate the New Year. Everyone who saw the couplets pasted beside his front door had praised them, saying, "Good, the writing is excellent, and the matched pair as well." Whenever he heard these words, he'd respond with a proud, enigmatic smile, leaving others baffled.

"It was you who insisted on showing off the couplets, and we all followed suit by praising them. Why are you acting all mysterious now?" Eventually, after the old commander spread the word, everyone high-up in the military circles of the Capital knew about Li Hongjun, that young soldier, and his talented wife who was currently attending university.
