Chapter 207
The Contract Marriage
At night, as Christian had said, there was indeed a rather large scale party held in the military camp.
The reason why this program was held was because during the days Christian had been here, he had pulled all the soldiersâ nerves too tightly. So today was a day when all the soldiersâ could relax a little.
Christian was the Commander of the army camp and Sarah was the wife of the Military Commander.
When they entered the venue, a large numbers of soldiers and their families came to welcome the chief and his wife.
Looking at the number people who were coming to greet them, Sarah felt like she was an emperor of some nation.
Sarah followed Christian into the armyâs auditorium and not long after, the entire venue began to sing loudly.
The sky was gray and the wilderness was vast. The autumn wind blew with a knife.
âWe were born in this world, and the Kunlun above our heads is full of lofty sentiments.
We traveled through thousands of mountains and rivers, and we only treated our hometown as our hometown. . .â
Only by falling in love with you would I know what it means to be in love, thinking about how many nights and days you have forgotten.
Only by falling in love with you would I know what it means to be in love, to think of your happiness is always filled with my heart.
I dreamed that you were calculating the date of my return, shouting at you, chasing you, wanting to kiss your dark face.
I dreamed that you would always give me a long way back, shouting at me, chasing me, wanting to hug me tightly in front of my chest.
You said you loved my soldierâs determination, but you protected yourself in the snow.
You said you wanted to bring back too much warmth, using your palm as my shelter from the rain.
My heart flew towards you, to the horizon. . .
Sarah quietly sat beside Christian, her small hands tightly held by him.
It was clearly just an ordinary love song but when Sarah listened to the touching lyrics, her tears silently fell. No matter how hard she tried, she could not stop them.
Perhaps it was because she had experienced it herself that she understood that this happiness was not easy to come by.
Fortunately, they performed some crosstalk and skit at the end of the song before Sarahâs emotions slowly calmed down.
The party ended in less than two hours. Sarah followed Christian back home.
When they entered the living room, Sarah remembered the lyrics of the song and couldnât help hugging Christian and crying.
Christian gently pushed her away. He reached out to hold her face and looked at the tears rolling down her face. He lowered his head and gently kissed the tears on her face, then gently kissed her cherry red lips.
Christian reached out and gently hugged her. He gently patted her back and comforted, âBaby, the pain in your heart. . . I knew and understood everything. But I am a soldier, and I am destined to owe you in this life. . .â
Sarah listened to him and shook her head hard in his arms. She looked up at him with tears in her eyes. âHubby, I didnât mean that. I just donât want to leave you. I want to be with you every day. . .â
Christian smiled in relief when he heard her words. He raised his hand and gently rubbed her face.
âDonât cry, okay? My heart broke when I saw you cry. . .â
Sarah heard his words and knew that he definitely did not feel good. She raised her small hand and placed it on his heart. âThen Iâll go buy a bottle of glue tomorrow and paste it for you.â
Christian was amused by his little wifeâs words. Seeing that there were still some tears on her eyelashes, he lowered his head and kissed her lips lightly. âAs long as you are fine, my heart will be complete, do you understand?â
No matter how happy the days of reuniting were, they still had to be separated.
In the blink of an eye, five days passed.
Today was the day that they had agreed to meet with David.
To tell the truth, Christian couldnât express his gratitude towards David for Sarahâs visit this time. So last night, he specially called David and asked him to book a flight ticket for the afternoon. He wanted to treat David to a good lunch at home.
David was a smart person. Once Christian said it, he understood his intentions. There were some words, that one doesnât need to say too clearly but the other person can understand perfectly.
Therefore, the next morning, David arrived at the army early in the morning. the entrance of the military camp to pick up David and brought him back to his home.
Sarah had been waiting at the door of the living room for a long time. When she saw David, she immediately invited him into the living room and poured him a cup of hot tea. She treated David like a hostess.
âDonât do these things. I am healthy and have hands and feet. You should just sit there your chief roars at me, the loss will outweigh the gain. . .â
David looked at Sarah who was busy at the back. Worried about her body, he made her sit on the sofa opposite him. He would do everything by himself.
Christian put on an apron and walked over with a smile. He looked at his wife and said, âBeloved, just sit here and chat with him. He was a big man. He could do whatever he wanted. If he was restrained here, heâs not your, Mr. David.â
David immediately looked at this guy and said rudely. âYou are really rude to me. I am a guest here!â
Christian heard his words and smiled. âYou have been a green onion that stuck in my nose, havenât you? You still want to pretend with me? Be careful that when my son is born, I will not let him call you uncle!â
returned to the kitchen.
David looked at the manâs back and smiled as he walked to the kitchen door. âUncle? Forget it. Why donât we discuss it and let call him call me godfather?â
This was a good way to address him! He liked it!
Christian immediately looked at David without any politeness. âWishful thinking! You can only dream of my child saying the word âgodfatherâ. Uncle is so good. It sounds like a family member.â
Looking at his expression, David immediately teased him, âYou Whatâs wrong with godfather? Itâs not like weâre related.â
âBecause itâs not wrong that itâs wrong! I want my son to give birth to your wife!â
âMy wife was taken away by you, okay?â
âA wife who can be taken away is not a wife!â
her to you!â
Christian heard what he said and looked at him with a smile. âDo you want a female soldier to be your wife? I can be your matchmaker for free.â
âYou can forget about it. I canât stand being separated from each other! Sarah is so stupid to fall for someone like you!â David immediately gave up on Military Commander Cooperâs idea.
Christian heard what he said and could not help but laugh.
Sarah smiled and walked over. âMr. David, do you have any thoughts about our Vice President? You asked Kendall to be your secretary. Donât tell me you like Kendall?â
âThen who do you think is better?â David looked at her and asked directly.
âYou only know how to be a good person!â
Christian heard their conversation and directly expressed his opinion. âPersonally, I think your vice president is not bad. Other than floating in the air, she is good in other aspects.â
Hearing this, Sarah immediately asked in a daze, âWhat do you mean by floating in the air?â
âItâs just that she doesnât like we are. Her family definitely wonât eat the kind of food we usually eat. She wonât wear ordinary clothes and wonât enter those low-class places. In any case, donât expect her to go to the food stall with you to eat. But whether or not she can fall down depends on Davidâs charm.â
After he finished speaking, Christian looked at David and smiled meaningfully.
David immediately took revenge. âI have always been more charming than you!â
âHaha!â Christian laughed out loud. âKeep dreaming.â
This lunch was especially good. Sarah had never thought that, the two men who used to be hostile would sit together and have a meal so harmoniously. Listening to them constantly tease each other, she smiled happily.
Christian and David pulled each otherâs legs for a long time. But after teasing each other, they would raise their wine cups and drink forthrightly.
Sarah sat by the side and watched. Her heart was filled with indescribable joy and gratification.
In the past, she felt that in her life, it was impossible for her to eat at the same table as now scene was a luxurious dream for her. After all, she owed Mr. David too much. . .
But what surprised her was that Davidâs heart was even wider than the ocean. Even if she couldnât marry him, he still cared about her happiness. To have such a good Big Brother to protect her, how honored was her life?
Lunch was finished very quickly. Christian looked at the time. Knowing that he could not keep his wife anymore, he brought Sarahâs suitcase to the door.
David understood that the two of them definitely had something to say, so he carried his suitcase downstairs first. He sat in Christianâs off-road vehicle.
Christian looked at the door, then walked in front of Sarah. He raised his hand to help her tidy up her coat and helped her put up the collar. He then pulled down the edge of her hat and felt satisfied. Only then did he lower his head to kiss her red lips.
Christian looked at her and silently smiled. He held Sarahâs hand and walked out of the house.
When they went downstairs, Sarah did not say anything.
Actually, there were a lot of things that she wanted to say to him. But when she thought about how it would take a long time for her to see him again after she left this place, her throat choked. There were a lot of things to say but even if she didnât say it, it seemed like he could understand it.
âWife, your belly is getting bigger and bigger. Donât run around anymore in the future, okay?â
âTake good care of yourself. When you give birth, I will take a family visit leave.â
âIf itâs inconvenient to move around, then donât go to work anymore. I donât lack money.â
âIf you donât want to go back to the villa, then donât go for now. Youâre pregnant now, so you donât have to care about other peopleâs feelings.â
âCall me when you miss me. If I donât take it, I will definitely call you back in a while.â
âYou have seen my situation here. Donât worry about me. I am pretty good here.â
âItâs cold now. You should wear warm clothes when you go out. If you really catch a cold, donât take western medicine. Antibiotics are not good for the human body. Itâs better to take traditional medicine.â
âYour stomach is getting bigger and bigger. Donât drive by yourself anymore. If you really want to work, take a taxi to work. That wonât cost much.â
âIf you want to go to shopping, donât buy too much. If you really want to buy something, you have to call mom for help.â
Christian held Sarahâs hand and kept reminding her to do this and that, like a long-winded old woman.
Sarah followed beside him and listened to his endless words. When she looked at his face again, her throat choked again.
As Christian spoke, he went downstairs and brought his wife to the car. He stretched out his hand and helped her tidy up her clothes. He looked at Sarah, a little worried. âBaby, do you remember what I said just now?â
Sarah nodded heavily. âYes, I did. Donât worry, I will be careful.â
âI still have a meeting to attend in a while, so I canât personally send you to the airport. Call me when you get home, understand?â
âYes, I know. . .â Sarah nodded heavily again.
Christian smiled. He wanted to kiss her again, but he still had to pay attention to his image as a soldier.
He opened the door for his wife and held her arm. âGet in the car.â
Sarah heard his words and slightly pursed her lower lip. Her throat was choking and she felt uncomfortable.
Without saying a word, she turned around and hugged Christian and kissed him heavily on the lips.
Only then did she hold Davidâs hand and get into the car.
Christian looked at Sarah and smiled faintly. Then he quickly closed the car door. He looked at the driver in the driverâs seat and raised his hand. âDrive. Be careful on the road.â
The car started quickly. Sarah put her face against the window and looked at Christian, who was outside the window, reluctantly. Tears slowly slid down her face.
The car drove for a distance. Sarah rolled down the window and stuck her head out. She looked at Christian and shouted, âChristian. . .â
When she shouted his name, the rest of her words turned into silent tears.
