She Mistakes Someone Else for Her Fiancé, and the Cold-Faced Commander Won't Let Her Go

Shen Jiao's father forced her to marry an old widower. Remembering the childhood betrothal her grandfather had mentioned before he died, she fled overnight to the military base to find her fiance.

Her fiance was tall and handsome, and an officer, but he was cold and distant toward her.

Shen Jiao did not dare bring up marriage. She only asked him to let her stay for the time being. She would move out as soon as she found a job.

But her fiance was astonishingly good to her. He brought her delicious meals, bought her pretty clothes, stood up for her when she was bullied, and even handed over his entire salary.

Shen Jiao thought he seemed to like her too, but was simply cold and not good with words.

So she confessed first and asked if he would marry her.

To her surprise, the man froze, his face filled with conflict, hesitation, and struggle.

Shen Jiao's eyes reddened. Swallowing her hurt, she said, "I'm sorry. I misunderstood things lately. I thought you might like me too..."

She turned to leave, but the man pulled her into his arms and held her tight as he admitted:

"Yes, I really do like you!"

Shen Jiao was still troubled by how hesitant he had been when agreeing, until a young man showed up, glared at Zhai Yue, and said:

"Uncle! How could you marry my fiancee!"

"Weren't you the one who went on a mission to escape the marriage? You should be calling her Aunt now." Zhai Yue held his wife close and declared his claim on her.

Looking at her possessive husband, Shen Jiao finally understood why he had kept his distance despite clearly having feelings for her, and why he had seemed so conflicted when responding to her confession.

It turned out she had... mistaken him for the wrong fiance.

Late that night, the man pinned Shen Jiao against the door, his eyes red as he said:

"Jiaojiao, we've already submitted our marriage application. You can't call it off."
