Sending letters from the town was convenient, and there was nothing much happening, yet for a full half-month, he did not receive a single letter from her.
During his intensive training, he had read the two letters he brought with him so many times he could recite them by heart. He longed so much for a letter from her, what did she think of him in her heart?
Hu Xibing said, "Captain Meng, Chiang Xiao isn't in town right now."
"Not in town?" Didn't they just say she was living in Osmanthus Alley? What's this about her not being in town now?
Hu Xibing thought about the instructions Chiang Xiao gave him before, and he felt conflicted, as if two little people were fighting inside him.
Should he tell or not tell?
Chiang Xiao had told him not to tell Captain Meng that she was taking her grandparents to Huali Tea Garden and that she would find time to go to the camp herself to tell him.
