"Get up, let me show you around the base, then we'll go to the Political Commissar's house. Tonight, there will be a lot of people at the Political Commissar's place. Don't be scared, even though they will tease you, none of them mean any harm." This is He Teng's heads up to He Zhilan. He could imagine that tonight, at the Political Commissar's house, a big crowd will certainly tease him and his new bride, He Zhilan.
He Zhilan got up efficiently and combed her hair, then obediently walked beside He Teng. It wasn't surprising that in public, He Teng wouldn't hold her hand. He wouldn't even let her link arms with him. He Zhilan looked at He Teng with pursed lips thinking, what a macho man he was!
"It's not good to show affection in the army," He Teng replied to the look on He Zhilan's face and then led her around the base.
