Let's Get Married

"Enlightened by his words, I forced myself to rush forward during the entire mission, and not to care about my own life. It turned out that I succeeded. Since then, all the obstacles in my mind had been broken through, but he..." The captain raises his hand, puts the cigarette in his mouth and takes a deep puff. Perhaps being choked by the smoke, he coughs and leans his back on the desk. He shrugs his shoulders twice before managing to find his voice. "He didn't come back."

Rex could catch the sadness of this great man through his trembling deep voice. He doesn't know how to comfort him. After all, everyone has his own duty living in this world.

A peaceful and prosperous era is never formed for no reason. It's just that these great men sacrifice themselves to protect our pure and clean land in a place where we can’t see.

"If he could see you now, he would be pleased." Rex rarely comforts people. To him, comforting is the most useless thing, but now, he doesn't have the heart to see the captain lying on the desk being so depressed.

The captain quickly calms himself down and thinks of Hawk's gang. He grits his teeth and says, "Don't worry. I promise you that we will definitely save your wife."

"Actually, she's not my wife. We haven't had a wedding yet." At the thought of the bright and sweet-smiling Lily, Rex feels sweet and happy in an instant. "They moment she comes back, I will marry her."

No one knows how painful and anxious he has been during these days without Lily. Rather, he feels more of guilty and regretful. He has been questioning himself why he didn't look after her well, and why only after she was missing did he begin to regret for not giving her lots of things.

Rex has almost prepared everything needed for their wedding. He swears that he would prepare the best wedding in the world for Lily after she comes back.

Within these days, it is the first time that the captain captures a hint of tenderness in Rex's eyes. Rex keeps a cold face in public. He is calm in most cases. Occasionally, when he thinks of something, he might collapse but he never loses control of himself, so everyone is somewhat afraid of him. Even some bold officers find Rex a scaring man. In their views, Rex is an indifferent man. Yet, no one can see the passion and affection burning beneath his cold face.

The captain chuckles in a soft voice, breaking the silence. "I'm waiting for the invitation."

Without further ado, the captain promises that Lily will survive and he will strive to return alive.

of men, so tightly and firmly that their hands slightly tremble. Looking at the determination shown on the captain's face, Rex finally puts on a sincere smile.
