Chapter 109 Sheng Tunan is promoted to Master
Tonight the breeze blows gently, whose heart is it moving?
Zhan Xinyue sat in front of the window, watching the breeze ruffling the curtains. The pink veil fluttered in the night wind like a restless heart.
Habits are a magical thing. In her previous life, Zhan Xinyue always slept alone, and she felt free and happy.
In this life, after marrying Sheng Tunan, tonight was the first time that Zhan Xinyue faced the long night alone. For the first time, she could not feel the warmth of a broad embrace, and could not hear the strong and even breathing beside her ears. Zhan Xinyue suffered from insomnia. She stayed awake in the dark until midnight, but still could not fall asleep at all.
Zhan Xinyue simply got up, sat in front of the window, admiring the moon, listening to the wind, and counting the stars.
She counted slowly, and when she counted more than 3,000, it was already 2:30 in the morning.
"Ding ding", suddenly, two whistles sounded. Zhan Xinyue immediately stood up and looked down. A military vehicle slowly drove into the yard. After a while, Sheng Tunan got off the car.
The man seemed to have sensed something and looked towards the third floor, just in time to meet Zhan Xinyue's expectant eyes.
Sheng Tunan shook his head helplessly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, quickened his pace, and walked quickly into the house with his long legs.
Zhan Xinyue's heart was pounding. She trotted over to open the door. In less than a minute, Sheng Tunan, looking a little tired, appeared in front of her.
"Wife, why haven't you slept yet?" Sheng Tunan looked at the clarity in Zhan Xinyue's eyes and knew that she didn't wake up in the middle of the night, but had not slept all night.
Zhan Xinyue smiled and didn't say, "I can't sleep because you're not around."
Sheng Tunan is a soldier and will most likely go to the battlefield in the future. Zhan Xinyue doesn't want her husband to worry too much about her and not be distracted during the war. She wants to be a military wife who will allow her lover to have no worries.
"Why are you back at this time?" Zhan Xinyue changed the subject and asked, "Where's Dad? Why didn't he come back with you?"
Sheng Tunan was about to take a shower, so he took off his clothes, revealing his muscular upper body. Zhan Xinyue touched him and then took out his pajamas and handed them to him.
"Dad went straight to sleep in the army. I was worried about you, so I came back. I'll go to the headquarters at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."
Sheng Tunan took the clothes. He had been in the office all day and had not sweated. He went in to take a quick shower, brushed his teeth carefully, and washed his face.
His wife is so beautiful. He is five years older than Zhan Xinyue, so he needs to take good care of his face.
Sheng Tunan applied Yashuang on her face and Zhan Xinyue had already fallen asleep.
Sheng Tunan turned off the lights quietly, climbed onto the bed, held his wife in his arms, kissed his beloved on the forehead, and fell asleep in each other's arms.
Early the next morning, Sheng Tunan and Zhan Xinyue woke up at almost the same time.
"Xinyue, sleep a little longer." Sheng Tunan changed his clothes and prepared to wash up.
Zhan Xinyue rubbed her eyes and followed the man into the bathroom. She leaned tenderly on her husband's broad back, yawning and acting coquettishly: "Well, I'll have breakfast before going to bed."
"If we have to talk till late today, you can sleep in the army like dad. You are too tired running around like this."
Sheng Tunan brushed his teeth and started talking to his wife while washing his face: "We should be able to finish the discussion this afternoon. The senior leader attaches great importance to it. He wants to realize both AI and the moon landing. The senior leader thinks that the geographical location of Huanyu Island is very suitable for a research base. Yesterday we mainly discussed the personnel arrangements, and the arrangements have been almost completed. Let's finalize the details today."
Zhan Xinyue nodded. This was a military secret, so she didn't ask who would go.
Sheng Tunan washed his face and hung up the towel. There are some things that cannot be said, but these three things can be said.
"Xinyue, the leader decided to establish an AI division in Huanyu Island. I should have been appointed as the commander of the AI division because of my father's influence." Sheng Tunan shrugged and said self-deprecatingly, "I am also a relative."
Although China has some small battles to fight now, it is generally a peaceful time. Against this background, to be precise, there has not been a young division commander like Sheng Tunan since liberation.
At the age of 25, Sheng Tunan became a division commander. He was the second person to do so after liberation!
The first one is called Ling Kong. His father Ling Feng fought countless victories before liberation. He was a founding marshal and was even regarded as a contemporary god of war.
Under the guidance of his war god father, Ling Kong showed outstanding military talent at a very young age. At the age of 24, he was promoted to Deputy Minister of the Army Operations Department at a rocket speed.
The deputy minister is at the army level, one level higher than Sheng Tunan's division level.
Of course, Zhan Xinyue felt that Ling Kong relied purely on his father and his powerful background. Her husband Sheng Tunan was the one who had real strength and relied on himself!
Sheng Tunan and Zhan Xinyue walked into the bedroom. Zhan Xinyue took out the new leather shoes she bought yesterday and said, "These are calf leather shoes. They won't hurt your feet."
The man put his feet in it and found it fit perfectly and the style was generous.
Zhan Xinyue straightened Sheng Tunan's collar and said with a smile: "When I was on the island, Aunt Xu told me that you had made many contributions. Her husband said that if the country still had many wars to fight, you would have been appointed as a division commander long ago."
It’s just because it’s a peaceful time now, with almost no officers sacrificed and no positions left vacant, there’s certainly no urgent need to fill the vacancies, so the promotion rate is slower.
Who is the big leader? The second in command, when he received Shen Min'e's report, had already asked someone to retrieve all of Sheng Tunan's files. If Sheng Tunan was just an ordinary person, no matter whose son he was, he would never be given the position of division commander.
Yesterday morning, Sheng Tunan's knowledge of AI was verified on site. The senior leader was very satisfied, and since Sheng Tunan was Shen Min'e's son, he did a favor for Academician Shen and expanded the AI group to the AI division.
"Husband, your ability, strength, and past achievements fully qualify you for the position of commander." Zhan Xinyue's eyes were firm, and she completely trusted her lover.
Sheng Tunan felt warm in his heart. Being recognized by his lover is a man's greatest pride.
The two walked downstairs hand in hand, and Sheng Tunan continued, "Brigade Commander Li has also been promoted to the head of the Logistics Department. He should be transferred back to the capital in a few days. The organization has sent a younger brigade commander to be responsible for the security work around Yu Island."
Zhan Xinyue nodded. Although she had not spent much time on the island, she had already fully understood the military positions.
The brigade commander is at level 13, and the head of the logistics department is at level 8. On the surface, Li Xiangqiang has been promoted five levels, but in reality, he has lost his real power. His salary and allowances are just better than before.
This was a blow to the power-loving Dongfang Xiaoqing. In the future, they would live in the military compound in Beijing. There were many army commanders living in this compound. As the lover of the logistics director without real power, she was really not good enough.
Zhan Xinyue shook her head and stopped thinking about this person. She just prayed that Dongfang Xiaoqing would not come to see her again after she came.
