In the military camp, a significant number of individuals chose to spend their earnings as they received them. This decision stemmed from the stark reality that, within the military camp, one never knew when they might be deployed to the battlefield, facing the possibility of never returning.

In such an unpredictable environment, the thought of saving money for a future that might never come seemed futile. Instead, many believed that it was essential to seize the moment and ensure they had no regrets in this world.

Within the military camp, the most common expenditure was on military prostitutes.

Upon receiving the reply, Qin Zhenzhen read it and couldn’t help but smile.

Her fourth brother, while possessing a rugged demeanor, exhibited meticulous thoughtfulness within that rough exterior. He understood that his future held great promise, with no doubt about achieving the rank of chiliarch and even aspiring to become a general.

Once he reached that status, numerous young ladies from wealthy families would vie for his hand in marriage.

Initially, Qin Zhenzhen had suspected that her fourth brother might not have any romantic feelings for Chen Shanshan. Her observations of their interactions had led her to believe that her fourth brother didn’t harbor such sentiments for her. Additionally, Chen Shanshan hailed from a modest background and was of average appearance.

However, she hadn’t anticipated that her fourth brother would express his willingness to marry Chen Shanshan. Moreover, he was genuinely concerned about her well-being if anything were to befall him.

This level of consideration demonstrated the effort and thought her fourth brother had invested in Chen Shanshan.

Qin Zhenzhen discreetly sought out Chen Shanshan and conveyed her fourth brother’s intentions.

“My fourth brother has already responded. Initially, he hesitated to entertain such thoughts because he feared disappointing you, which is why he didn’t mention it,” Qin Zhenzhen explained.

“He expressed that those who enter the military camp have little say in their lives; their existence belongs to the country, not themselves,” she continued. “It’s uncertain when they might sacrifice their lives for their nation. But after learning of your feelings, he desired to spend time with you, and only then did he realize your importance in his life.”

Qin Zhenzhen emphasized, “My fourth brother wishes for you to carefully contemplate this decision.”

Chen Shanshan responded resolutely, “I’ve thought it through. I understand Brother Silong’ concerns, but I believe he is favored by the heavens, and he will surely return safely. I’ll never regret my decision! ”

Although Chen Shanshan’s face reddened with shyness, her response was straightforward. She was neither bashful nor hesitant. Her affection for Qin Silong and her willingness to marry him were born of careful consideration, not mere impulsivity.

Chen Shanshan had already considered the very worries that plagued Qin

Silong. Nevertheless, human emotions often worked in strange ways, compelling individuals in love to disregard all else.

Observing Chen Shanshan, Qin Zhenzhen smiled approvingly. The more she thought about it, the more convinced she became that Chen Shanshan was well-suited to be her fourth sister-in-law.

Qin Zhenzhen had always admired Chen Shanshan’s personality, and there was no need to mention the good conduct of Chen Shanshan’s parents. Moreover,

Chen Shanshan was her disciple and a crucial member of her distribution team.

If Chen Shanshan were to become part of the Qin family, Qin Zhenzhen would feel more confident entrusting essential matters to her.

However, this decision required the approval of her parents.

“Have you discussed this with your parents?” Qin Zhenzhen inquired.

Chen Shanshan blushed and nodded. “Yeah.”

“They didn’t object. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have agreed. I’ve never been engaged.”

“They even talked about finding a matchmaker to propose marriage.”

“I stopped them.”

“What if Brother Silong is unwilling to marry me and your parents agree? That would be equivalent to harming myself and Brother Silong..”
