Lu Zhenghan also found this news very strange. Xia Qiuran's social background was very simple, so how could she suddenly offend some big shot?

He comforted Xia Qiuran for a few moments, and after returning to his unit, he asked someone else to help investigate the matter.

Feng Yuan is an official in Beijing, so that important figure must also be in Beijing.

After arranging everything, Lu Zhenghan went to supervise the drills until ten minutes before lights out, when he finally returned to his dormitory.

During this period, Xia Qiuran must have been very troubled, either because her father was injured or because of work problems. Lu Zhenghan specially asked for two more tickets to the movie "Maple Leaf Romance". He couldn't see it last time, so he was determined to take her to see it this time, and then go to the lakeside to relax and unwind.

The next day, after arranging things at the military base, Lu Zhenghan took another day off and specially took off his military uniform and put on a civilian outfit.

The white polyester collared shirt is smooth and flat, and the slightly fitted design perfectly accentuates the broad shoulders and back, while the waistline is neat without being too tight.

Lu Zhenghan stood in front of the mirror for a while. He unbuttoned his collar, which had been buttoned up neatly, but after looking at it for a while, he seemed dissatisfied and quickly buttoned it up again.

As Lu Zhenghan walked down the street, he passed by a photo studio and unconsciously stopped to take a second look at the people in the picture.

At this moment, the proprietress with her permed hair saw Lu Zhenghan stop and quickly went to greet him.

Looking at Lu Zhenghan's face, which was even more handsome than a magazine star, the proprietress immediately said.

"Young man, do you want to have your picture taken? If you want to have your picture taken, I won't charge you a penny, as long as you let me put this photo in the shop window."

"I'm not taking pictures, I'm just looking around."

Lu Zhenghan glanced at the proprietress before preparing to leave, clearly showing no interest in the matter.

"Hey, don't go, my little roommate! We can not only take photos here, but also get haircuts."

"If it's not good-looking, you don't have to pay."

The proprietress stood at the door, still calling out, but Lu Zhenghan remained unmoved. After thinking for a moment, he called out again.

"We can design hairstyles specifically for men and women going on blind dates or dates."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhenghan indeed slowed down his pace.

He wanted to invite Xia Qiuran to the movies; I guess that counts as a date.

This was his first formal invitation to Xia Qiuran, so he should indeed pay extra attention to his image.

The proprietress led Lu Zhenghan into the store and pointed to the posters on the wall.

"Look at all these styles! Is there anything you like?"

After entering, Lu Zhenghan glanced around and frowned as he looked at the flashy and flamboyant hairstyles on the wall.

Having spent many years in the military, he was used to a clean and neat buzz cut. These so-called trends seemed particularly ostentatious to him and did not conform to his aesthetic sense.

The proprietress smiled, as if she could see through Lu Zhenghan's thoughts, and said with a smile, "Comrade, you may not be used to these hairstyles now, but girls nowadays all prefer these fashionable hairstyles."

Lu Zhenghan, who was about to leave, paused again, and the image of Xia Qiuran's joy at seeing him involuntarily surfaced in his mind.

"Brother Zhenghan, your hairstyle is so handsome! Let's go see a movie together."

Thinking of these scenarios, the corners of her mouth began to curve slightly upwards, and her earlier anxieties about the trendy hairstyle instantly diminished by more than half.

When Lu Zhenghan stood up from the barbershop chair, his original buzz cut had been completely spruced up.

The length of the hair on the top of the head was not changed much, while the sideburns on both sides were trimmed more neatly and cleanly, and a thin layer of hairspray was sprayed on them to fix the shape.

Still sporting a short hairstyle, retaining the rugged spirit inherent in soldiers, yet shedding the original seriousness and rigidity, adding a touch of refreshing style.

At the landlady's urging, two buttons on his shirt collar were undone, making him look less stern and more dashing, with a unique charm.

Lu Zhenghan was still a little uncomfortable. He touched his hair with his hand, and the stiff strands made him look unusually reserved.

The proprietress stared wide-eyed at Lu Zhenghan after he finished cleaning up, her gaze fixed on his face.

"Wow, comrade, you're so handsome! If you went into acting, all the current stars would hate you to death. You're really leaving no way for anyone else to survive."

Lu Zhenghan felt a little embarrassed by the stares, and it was also the first time he had dressed like this, so he was somewhat unaccustomed to it.

"The money is here."

Without saying anything more, he put the money on the table and left.

...

When he arrived at the hospital, Lu Zhenghan didn't go inside to look for Xia Qiuran; instead, he decided to wait at the entrance.

The first thing Xia Qiuran saw after she came out was Lu Zhenghan's back. She didn't recognize him yet, but she couldn't help but take a second look.

She's got such a great figure; if she showed it all off, I wonder how many young girls she'd swoon over.

After spending a month in the hospital, this was the first time I'd seen such a good-looking man.

bah bah.

What are you thinking about? Xia Qiuran quickly shook her head to regain her senses. She already had a boyfriend, so how could she still be thinking about these things?

Just as Xia Qiuran turned to leave, Lu Zhenghan also turned around and greeted her immediately.

"Ranran."

Xia Qiuran turned around and realized that the super stylish handsome guy from just now was actually Lu Zhenghan.

She stared wide-eyed, her eyes wide with disbelief.

Is today some special day? Why are you dressed up so nicely?

"Commander, why are you dressed like this today?" Coming back to her senses, she walked over to Lu Zhenghan and said.

Lu Zhenghan's gaze darkened: "Call me by my name, but don't use my title in private."

Xia Qiuran lightly brushed her fingertip against her lips, then immediately changed her tone and whispered, "Brother Zhenghan, are you going on some special mission today?"

In my previous life, it seemed like that's how it was portrayed on TV: going on missions, going undercover, and playing various roles.

Lu Zhenghan cleared his throat, his eyes unconsciously glancing elsewhere.

"No, I just happened to pass by a photo studio, and they offered me a free haircut if I took a picture according to their requirements, so that's why I dressed up like this."

"Really? Where is it? I want to go too."

Upon hearing the word "free," Xia Qiuran immediately perked up.

Now that the opportunity to become a permanent employee is gone, and we still owe the hospital so much money, of course we have to save as much as we can.

"I'll take you there sometime."

Lu Zhenghan didn't want to continue the topic, so he took out the movie tickets he had prepared in advance from his pocket.

"Oh, right, I have two movie tickets here."

"Oh, it's 'Maple Leaf Romance'! I've heard it's a really good movie."

As soon as Lu Zhenghan took it out, Xia Qiuran saw the name on the movie ticket, and a bright smile immediately bloomed on her face.

Lu Zhenghan: "Whatever you like."

"I love it! I really love it. I heard from Sister Wenmei yesterday that she had been trying to buy these movie tickets for a long time but couldn't get them. This is a good opportunity to go see the movie with her." Xia Qiuran said happily, holding the movie tickets.

What? Chung Wen-mei.

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhenghan's smile immediately froze.
