Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife-Chapter 1478: Movie Date 3

Sixteen stations, the route is not very long, sometimes getting off the metro doesn’t mean reaching the destination directly, so one must transfer to a bus.

Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue walked through several scenic spots in the snow, holding hands when no one was around, but were treated like fools by people when spotted. If braving the wind and snow for fun isn’t foolishness, what is?

Winter days are short, and nights long, and soon it was time for dinner, so the two went to the old Moscow Restaurant.

"Actually, hotpot and roasted mutton are tastier." Though she learned several foreign languages, Feng Qingxue personally didn’t quite like Western food; she still preferred the authentic cuisine of her own country.

Lu Jiang glared at her again and again, "It’s different in meaning!"

"What’s different in meaning?" Feng Qingxue asked curiously. Her mind whirled, could it be that he finds dining at a Western restaurant more romantic and atmospheric? With this thought, she suddenly laughed.

Feng Qingxue felt a delightful warmth in her heart as she gazed at Lu Jiang’s stern dark face, nodding, "Western restaurants are good, quiet, I like it."

Lu Jiang didn’t like drinking milk tea, but he ordered one for her.

The warm milk tea slid down her throat, quickly dispelling the chill of the journey.

Smiling eyes brimming with joy, Feng Qingxue propped her cheek in her hand, gazing at Lu Jiang.

Busy all day, indeed, it had been a long time since she had taken a good look at her husband’s face. Would she fail to recognize him if this continued?

Though he was already forty years old this year, formally stepping into middle age, his years of military life had lent him a certain world-weariness, but he also possessed the dignified air of a superior officer. In her eyes, he was still as handsome and imposing as the first time she saw him, no, even more charming - a charm that belongs to mature men. Under the lighting, he was heart-stirringly attractive.

"Looking at what?" Lu Jiang touched his own face, slightly embarrassed by his wife’s fervent gaze!

"Looking at you!" Feng Qingxue answered crisply.

Lu Jiang puffed out his chest and straightened his military cap, aiming to appear even more imposing, "Take your time looking." He regretted a little that he had not hung his medals on his chest, which failed to exhibit his greatness.

Feng Qingxue laughed with a snort.

Lu Jiang looked around and then whispered, "If you haven’t had enough, you can continue looking at home." He needed to remember where his wife had placed those medals in a box, as the medals had many uses, and if put out in plain sight, they generally kept people from causing trouble. Hence, Feng Qingxue didn’t store them in a space, but instead, carried some with her, leaving some others at their old home.

The waiter brought the grilled fish, cream of mushroom soup, and canned braised beef they ordered. Feng Qingxue sat up straight, picked up her silverware, "Eat up, many foods don’t taste good once they’ve cooled down."

Lu Jiang often rubbed shoulders with the upper echelons and even attended state banquets, so his dining etiquette was quite natural. freeweɓnøvel~com

Although the average consumption at Moscow Restaurant wasn’t high, around three to five Yuan, compared to the average salary of thirty to forty Yuan, it was still a considerable amount. Therefore, the clientele here were mainly offspring from prominent families, foreign guests, overseas Chinese, and high-ranking officials with considerable background and stature. Glancing around, including the foreigners, it seemed everyone was familiar to Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue.

Even if they weren’t close, they had seen each other at various social events.

Upon entering, they nodded to each other, no one disturbing anyone else’s meal.

The couple quietly conversed while enjoying the Western food and foreign wine, and at that moment, several young foreigners walked in, one of whom, after sitting down and looking around for a bit, suddenly stood up and approached Feng Qingxue to say hello.
