"Call me when you get home."
Wen Ci reached out and hugged him. "I know."

Wen Ci had an exceptionally comfortable sleep on the plane. Huo Jingyuan had prepared an eye mask for her. After boarding, she leaned against the window and didn't wake up until a flight attendant called her name.
Most of the other passengers had already deplaned.
Wen Ci hailed a taxi after leaving the airport. The fare to the Beijing Military District Family Courtyard was eight yuan. She clicked her tongue. 'In the past, I never would have been willing to spend this much.'
Eight yuan.
That was a month's worth of food expenses for a single-income family.
The driver asked, "Is your husband a soldier?"
Wen Ci nodded amicably. "Yes."
"In that case, I'll only charge you seven yuan. Soldiers protect our country, so you, as a military family member, should enjoy some benefits."
"Huh?"
Wen Ci blinked.
'Military families already get to enjoy benefits at a time like this?!'
