Reader note
The male protagonist is the ideal soldier brother in the world! Qin Weidong, the cold-faced and iron-blooded reconnaissance company commander, has a good family background and strong abilities, but is cold on the outside and hot on the inside. His feelings for the heroine are respect, appreciation, and protection, and they are the soul resonance of a strong union. He would silently deliver scarce fabrics on snowy nights, secretly solve problems when she encounters rumors, write the briefest words "Everything is fine, don't think about it" in letters, but use his actions to smooth the bumpy road ahead for her. Who can not be moved by this kind of silent male protagonist who loves you to the core? Their relationship is that of a comrade-in-arms fighting side by side, and more importantly, of a soul-to-soul confidant. Adult love is so solid and easy to love!
