Super Soldier in the City

Xu Yang agreed directly, without even asking about some important matters. Oh no, perhaps after experiencing life and death, Xu Yang already believed that certain things others consider crucial, like wedding houses and bride prices, were no longer important.

Zhang Tianxing wanted to say something more, but Xu Yang shook her head with a smile and said, "I only want you; there’s no one like you in this world."

Zhang Tianxing hurriedly promised, "I will be good to you, I will definitely be good to you!" After speaking, he addressed Xu Yang’s parents, "Uncle, Aunt, please rest assured, I, Zhang Tianxing, swear to love Xu Yang wholeheartedly, not to let her suffer any grievances, not to cause you any worries."

Zhang Tianxing’s mother wiped her tears and said, "We respect Yangyang’s choice and are pleased with your character. We feel assured leaving Yangyang in your hands. However, Tianxing, some things Yangyang might not ask, but as her parents, we feel compelled to speak."

"Aunt, please go ahead!" Zhang Tianxing quickly nodded.

Xu Yang called out "Mom," but her mother gestured for her not to speak and said, "We know you have already prepared for the wedding back home, and even plan to hold it there immediately. This matter... seems somewhat rushed. Firstly, Yangyang has just woken up, and her body might not withstand such an ordeal. Secondly, as parents, we naturally have to consider many things for our children. You’ve given us money and let the years go by quietly. As a mother, I want to ask what your future plans are: Will you continue to live in your parents’ home in your hometown, or return to the city?"

"If it’s the hometown, can Yangyang adapt to that life? Will she spend a lifetime farming with you? Or will you return to the city to find a job and together strive to create a little home?"

Of course, Zhang Tianxing had considered these questions, so he immediately answered, "Aunt, we will return to the city to work. Give me one or two years, and I will work hard to afford a house, it definitely can be done!"

Xu Family’s parents nodded, and Xu Yang’s mother asked, "We trust your promise, so you can first live at home for now. Although the place isn’t big, it’s enough for the four of us. But one thing, when you buy a new house, it should be big enough to consider space for children."

"Definitely, I will buy a big house!" Zhang Tianxing nodded repeatedly.

Although Xu Yang was weak, a blush still appeared on her small face, as she shyly looked at Zhang Tianxing. Before the incident, she’d already been fond of Zhang Tianxing, and now upon waking, her memory and feelings remained in the past few years; her feelings haven’t changed. Moreover, hearing about the past few years, she became more touched.

Xu Yang’s parents were still a bit unsure in their hearts, but seeing their daughter’s appearance, they felt relieved. As long as their daughter desires it, anything is okay. Besides, finding someone like Zhang Tianxing is truly not easy.

Li Yifei suddenly spoke, smiling, "Tianxing, you don’t need to worry about the wedding house; the organization will solve it for you!"

"Ah?" Zhang Tianxing looked at Li Yifei, very surprised. This matter had never been discussed before. Zhang Tianxing was unclear what kind of organization this was — the Flying Hawk Squad?

The three members of the Xu Family also looked at Li Yifei, just to hear him continue, "Tianxing is an outstanding soldier of the Flying Hawk Squad. For someone like him, when getting married, the organization will provide a wedding house, with a standard between 150 to 300 square meters, up to a maximum of 300 square meters. I suggest you choose the 150 square meters option and convert the remaining 150 square meters to cash."

"Is there really such a benefit?" Zhang Tianxing blinked his eyes in surprise, unable to believe it, "Boss, don’t fool me, I’ve never heard of it."

"There is, of course, there is. I’m the captain, so such benefits are surely considered for you!" Li Yifei laughed.

Still shaking his head, Zhang Tianxing wasn’t foolish, guessing this was likely a sudden offer from Li Yifei. It’s hard to get married these days without a house; no matter how much love there is, there must be a material foundation.

The three members of Xu Family also stared dazedly at Li Yifei, evidently unable to believe it. It’s rare these days for units to allocate housing, even within the military.

Li Yifei nodded affirmatively, saying, "Naturally, there is. I wouldn’t lie to you. The location can be chosen freely, and I will report it to the organization. This kind of thing is treated as a special case, very efficient. It can be here or in the provincial capital, but if you insist on choosing those places in Capital City where prices are ten to twenty thousand per square meter, the organization probably won’t agree!"

Zhang Tianxing scratched his head, muttering, "Impossible, how could there be such benefits? Even if we are part of the Flying Hawk Squad, it’s still not possible. Boss, you really don’t need to do this. I can earn the money for the wedding house myself, don’t you believe in my ability?"

"I trust you, hahaha. But if it’s something that belongs to you, why not strive for it?" After saying this, Li Yifei added, "Alright, that’s settled. As your former squad leader, and your boss, even Xu Yang’s parents have agreed to this marriage. I also give my approval here!"

"Captain, please speak!" Zhang Tianxing straightened his back and said.

Li Yifei then said, "Treat Xu Yang well, work hard. You’ve experienced some things since leaving the army, but don’t become dispirited again. For your new family, and for both parents, make sure to live well."

"Respect!" Zhang Tianxing stood up and saluted Li Yifei solemnly.

"This promise should be made to your parents, not to me. Honestly, I’m happy when you all are well; I truly am happy for you all."

"Boss!" Zhang Tianxing’s face flushed with excitement. Li Yifei gestured to him to calm down and then said, "Okay, I’ll notify Mingrui to start right away. Whether today or tomorrow, let’s get the wedding done well; don’t let the guests come in vain. Of course, certain aspects might inconvenience Xu Yang and Uncle, Aunt. These are things you owe, so make sure to compensate gradually in the future."

"I promise!" Zhang Tianxing replied loudly.

"I believe you. A man’s words are like nails, if he says it, he must do it!"

Xu Yang’s parents looked at their son-in-law, feeling like it’s all a dream. Today, not only did their daughter fully recover, but the person who provided the life-saving money, Zhang Tianxing, also proposed to their daughter. Although he did come here after being rejected by someone else, the elderly couple chose to overlook this matter. After some discussions, they told Zhang Tianxing and their daughter, "We indeed agree to this marriage. Seeing Yangyang happy is our greatest hope. Concerning the house, we won’t pressure you. If the army provides it, we are certainly happy. If not, there’s no need to force it; you can stay at home!"

"Uncle... Aunt, regarding the house, I’ll check on it again. It would be great, even if it’s not 150 square meters, as long as it’s seventy, it’s still not small. We can save from taking on debts worth hundreds of thousands, and work will be much easier."

"Rest assured, there certainly is. Don’t you believe my words?" Li Yifei, calling on the phone, laughed, while Zheng Mingrui, who had been waiting impatiently, cheered as he received good news from Li Yifei, immediately issuing a series of orders. These items could be transported by helicopter, and the speed wouldn’t be slow.

Li Yifei had considered nearby places like a villa but finally decided to hold it at his home; the venue can be adjusted slightly. The key is the atmosphere, which would also give face to Zhang Tianxing’s parents!

Li Yifei helped Xu Yang adjust her body, which made her feel much better. Once everyone was ready, they went downstairs. During this time, Xu Yang’s parents contacted their relatives by phone, informing them of Xu Yang’s recovery and the wedding. These relatives were shocked but quickly reacted, feeling genuinely happy.

This organized a dozen or so family groups, amid another one or two-hour wait.

Meanwhile, Zhang Tianxing and Li Yifei were downstairs smoking, with the former persistently probing about the house issue. Li Yifei chuckled and said, "Do you really want to know?"

"Boss, although we are brothers, I should be respectful with you. But this housing issue is so significant... Besides, it’s in the city, such a favor is too substantial. I should explain to Xu Yang’s parents that they will understand. The housing can be slowly earned."

"Haha, well, let’s not talk about these between brothers. Also, if you knew your boss’s current situation, you probably wouldn’t be so polite!"

"Ah?" Zhang Tianxing blinked and asked, "Boss, aren’t you also getting married and having children? I see your wife is not only beautiful but also virtuous!"

Patting Zhang Tianxing’s shoulder, Li Yifei said, "It’s been a long time since you’ve watched the news or gone online; your boss, me, is now the richest man in Ning Province, with assets worth tens of billions—far from the cost of just one house!"

"Ning Province’s... richest man? Boss, you..." Zhang Tianxing’s jaw dropped in surprise, and then he shook his head, saying, "This... I believe in the boss’s ability, but... it’s still hard to believe."

"Therefore, there’s no need to fight over the house; consider it a wedding gift from your boss. Not only for you, if any of you face difficulties, feel free to speak up. Our camaraderie isn’t measured by money; it’s a bond built on years of life-and-death loyalty. Even if I lacked ability, you’d still receive my best support. More so now that I indeed am capable."

"Boss!" Zhang Tianxing was moved too many times today, his emotions fluctuated repeatedly, leaving him unsure of what to say.
