On our wedding anniversary, I specially bought braised pork from the state-run restaurant and brought it to my husband's military camp.
But I unexpectedly caught him carrying the radio announcer, Chen Yuanyuan, on his back, his eyes full of tenderness as he said:
"Don't worry. From now on, I'll take good care of you in place of your parents."
I wiped away my tears and left. I stopped pestering him to come home every day.
Seeing how well-behaved I was, Lin Jianguo looked at me tenderly.
"Once things calm down, I'll take you and your parents to see the great rivers and mountains of our motherland."
I smiled and lowered my head.
He had no idea that half a month earlier, both my parents had died in a serious accident, and I had submitted a divorce petition to the military.
We were no longer husband and wife.
