Military marriage in the 1970s + a top-tier powerhouse revealing her true colors + an adorable child

Bai Zhi walked through the gates of the Northern Xinjiang military compound with her three-year-old son in her arms.

The man she was looking for was Lu Zhanting, the youngest battalion commander in the military region: cold-faced, iron-willed, and decorated with countless battle honors. But three years ago, he was injured and lost his memory. He couldn’t even remember that he’d been married.

Lu Zhanting looked at the frail woman before him and the little boy tugging at his pant leg and calling him Dad. His face darkened.

And Bai Zhi herself, the delicate wife who couldn’t even lift a bucket of water, pinned an enemy agent who had infiltrated the base into the mud with one hand.

Lu Zhanting stared at her and tugged open his collar. “Bai Zhi, how many more things are you hiding from me?”
