June Sunshine, Just Like You

[Dear readers, my upcoming novel, Cherry First Love Story, is listed at the bottom. Check it out in my author page!]

[Gentle, cheerful male officer who likes to play dumb and catch people off guard × lively, adorable female doctor who loves making wild assumptions]

One day, a counterterrorism story suddenly appeared on the trending list on Weibo. The accompanying photo showed a uniformed soldier so thoroughly covered up that even his own mother wouldn't recognize him. Tang Bao stared at Su Zhen's photo and couldn't stop swooning. Shamelessly, she left all sorts of love confessions under the news, thinking no one would ever find out, until much later, when Su Zhen picked up her phone.

"So you've had your eye on me for ages. I'm right here. Feel free to ravish me. I'm so pitiful, helpless, and weak, I couldn't possibly fight back."

"Shut up! Comrade officer, watch your conduct! Believe it or not, I'll report you to your unit!"

Xu Xu gently placed a lotus-leaf lantern on Su Zhen's head and said in a babyish voice, "Uncle, do you like the hat I gave you?"

Su Zhen's smile froze. After a long, difficult struggle, he finally met Xu Xu's expectant gaze and said, "I like it... but Uncle doesn't like this color."

Tang Bao looked at the shiny, bright green hat on his head, complete with neon effects, and burst out laughing.

Dear Su Zhen, you promised me you'd come to marry me in your most handsome uniform. I waited eagerly, unable to contain myself, and put on my most beautiful qipao, hoping I'd be worthy of you.

On our wedding day, the sun shone brightly, and your comrades gathered around us.

Your comrade looked at you and said, "Su Zhen, I brought the 15-year-old Moutai you've been dreaming of. I promised you I'd bring it."

I looked at the uniform you were wearing and said, "Su Zhen, I finally got to marry you, just as I'd always wanted. I promised you that, too."

We both kept our promises.

1.

A new interpretation of the core values:

Gu Chen: Could you be reasonable for once? Have you ever studied the core values? Prosperity and democracy, civility and harmony.

Bai Mumu: You're too greedy. Aren't we prosperous and democratic enough already?

Gu Chen: How is this democratic? You're just a bandit.

Bai Mumu: I've always upheld prosperity and democracy. But ours is a custom-made version. In plain language, you're prosperous and I'm powerful; you're the people and I'm the ruler. So you should bow down to me.

Gu Chen: ...Damn it.

2.

Bai Mumu: I'm so envious of you. How did you get so lucky?

Gu Chen: ?

Bai Mumu: You managed to get a girlfriend like me. You're truly heaven's favorite. I'm so jealous of you.

Gu Chen: Ever seen someone give the finger? Want me to show you?

3.

Bai Mumu: In your previous life, you must have been a monk for ten thousand years, accumulating virtue and practicing self-restraint.

Gu Chen rolled his eyes and didn't feel like answering.

Bai Mumu: Why aren't you asking me why?

Gu Chen, humoring her: Why?

Bai Mumu: If you hadn't spent ten thousand years saving all those people, how else would you have earned the good fortune to meet me in this life?

Gu Chen: Maybe I killed the Buddha's father and stole his wife. The Buddha must hate me so much that he's making me suffer through this ordeal in this life.
