A Well-Behaved Southern Girl Comes to the Military District Compound

1970s + well-behaved southern girl + northern father-type rough rogue + height and build difference + 11-year age gap + sweet, doting romance — Qiao Lanshu was born into a dual-income worker family in the capital of a southern province. Quiet and well-behaved, with a handsome, delicate appearance, she was too pampered for her family to feel comfortable sending her to the countryside. So, with a marriage certificate in hand, her parents put her on a train and sent her thousands of kilometers north to find her fiancé. Her fiancé was supposedly an officer, and she could accompany him with the army. But the moment she got off the train, she was frozen unconscious. And what awaited her afterward was even more shocking: she had been tricked into a marriage. Her fiancé had never joined the army at all. He had been using his military status to swindle financial support from her family, treating them all like an inexhaustible source of money. The army leaders sympathized with her and said, “Little Qiao is a good comrade. Don’t worry—we’ll definitely find you a good husband.” Thus, all the unmarried cadres in the army came to meet her. Qiao Lanshu was not interested in any of them. Seeing her fair, beautiful little face, the leader asked gently, “How come you haven’t taken a liking to any of them? What kind of man do you like?” Blushing, Qiao Lanshu looked at the leader. “I—I like someone like you. Aren’t you unmarried?” The army leader: “…” — Qin Yuanzheng was nearly thirty and unmarried because a physical examination had shown that he was infertile. He had originally intended to dedicate his life to his country and remain single forever. Yet one night, he happened to pick up a delicate young woman from the south. The girl even said that she liked him and wanted to date him. Qin Yuanzheng rejected her. But after returning home, he tossed and turned night after night. This girl was the one he had brought home. He truly couldn’t bear to entrust her to anyone else. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: A Well-Behaved Southern Girl Comes to the Military District Compound — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
