Chapter 24: You Must Miss Me_1
Meng Yunhan knew of Yun Hao’s aloofness. If she wanted to change him, it wasn’t something that would happen overnight. There would be plenty of time in the future, and she was determined to alter him.
Saying a few more words was not wasteful chatter.
But saying a few less words would change the meaning entirely.
“Will you write to me?” Meng Yunhan asked shyly, her head bowed. Her flushed face and reddened neck were already betraying her embarrassment.
“I’ll write,” Yun Hao agreed, touching her slightly coarse hair. Her hair quality was good, and it was long.
“Alright, let’s get up!” Meng Yunhan cheerfully rose from the bed.
Despite having rested, her legs felt a little unstable, as if they yearned for intimate contact with the ground.

“Yun Hao, what am I to do? You haven’t even left yet, and I miss you already.” Meng Yunhan clung to Yun Hao’s waist, stifling her sobs.
Seeing her in such a state, Yun Hao was unsure how to console her and felt a bit panicked.
Joining the army had crossed his mind, but he immediately dismissed the idea. Life was hard, genuinely hard. At least at home, his elder brothers could help, and her days might be a bit better. But at the army, even buying a few vegetables would require careful planning, and having a meal with meat demanded calculation.
