'110', '119' wedding wins over netizens

"I never saw her cry, but I cried after reading stories about her and her colleagues on social media," Bao said. "I thought that policewomen wouldn't be sent to dangerous places. She never told me what she was doing at the time because she didn't want me to worry."

In January, Bao asked for two days' leave and presented Ren with 99 roses on their wedding day. He said that they never expected to receive so many blessings from friendly netizens.

Bao said that he has also frequently been touched by friendly people he encountered in his work.

While he was in Henan in July, local inhabitants flooded their tents with food and drink.

"Many people had tears in their eyes when they thanked us for our help," he said.

Bao said he plans to apply to work at home to spend more time with his wife and family members.

"I'm sorry that I have had to let her down many times because of the long distance and work pressures. I'll try my best to make it up," he said. "I'll be good tempered and nice, no matter how angry she might become with me in our future life."
