Chapter 7: The stunning red dress captivates all the male soldiers on the island.

Rumors spread faster than the sea breeze in the military compound.

Within half a day, the entire island knew about the exciting news from Commander Qin's family.

"Have you heard? Commander Qin and his fussy wife have made up!"

"It's more than just making up! I heard from Mrs. Zhang next door that last night... it was incredibly intense!"

"Really? Hasn't Commander Qin always disliked her?"

"Who knows? That Jiang Wu looks like a vixen. Men, what man doesn't stray? She probably used some seductive tricks to seduce our Commander Qin!"

"Tsk tsk, she's really lucky. Such a good man, how did she end up with her?"

The military wives gathered together, washing clothes and preparing vegetables while chatting animatedly.

His words were filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment towards Jiang Wu.

Jiang Wu was completely unaware of these rumors and paid them no attention.

She was busy with her own things at home.

Qin Lie did not return all day.

I heard that he took his troops to the rocky beach on the other side of the sea to conduct anti-landing exercises.

This gave Jiang Wu plenty of free time.

She dug out all of the original owner's old-fashioned clothes.

It was either drab, gray work clothes or brightly colored polyester fabric.

The style is outdated and the workmanship is rough.

Jiang Wu shook her head at the sight.

How could a demoness of the Hehuan Sect wear something like this?

She chose the most brightly colored dress that the original owner rarely wore.

It was a tacky bright red dress with large peony flowers printed on it.

Jiang Wu took out her needle and thread and began to drastically alter the dress.

Ditch the outdated Peter Pan collar and replace it with a simple and elegant off-the-shoulder neckline.

Tighten the loose waist to make it fit the body's curves perfectly.

Cut off the trailing hem so that the length is just above the knee.

With a series of actions, a tacky "grandma dress" was transformed into a fashionable and sexy dress in her hands.

Although it's not as good as her robes, it's still wearable.

After doing all this, Jiang Wu glanced out the window.

As the sun begins to set, it's the best time to enjoy the sunlight at the beach.

The island's specialty is a variety of beautiful seashells and conches.

She planned to go to the beach, collect some seashells, and make some small ornaments to decorate her simple home.

By the way, it's time to let this beautiful body get some fresh air.

She changed into the altered red dress and casually let her long, black hair fall over her shoulders.

She wasn't wearing makeup; she just smiled slightly at herself in the mirror.

The person in the mirror has skin as white as snow and a red dress as fiery as fire.

Every frown and smile exudes a natural charm.

Jiang Wu walked out of her house with satisfaction and headed towards the beach not far away.

This is the time when the troops finish a day of training and prepare to return to camp.

On the western beach, a group of soldiers who had just finished an exercise were undergoing their final physical training.

They were shirtless, wearing only military green shorts.

His bronze skin was covered in beads of sweat, which shimmered with a healthy glow in the setting sun.

It was brimming with youthful, vibrant hormones.

They trained while playfully teasing each other, their laughter ringing out.

However, all the laughter stopped abruptly when a fiery red figure appeared on the beach.

Everyone's movements seemed to have been paused.

The soldiers' eyes all turned to the woman who had suddenly barged in.

They saw a woman.

A woman wearing a bright red dress.

She appeared abruptly on this beach, soaked with sweat and masculine energy.

The afterglow of the setting sun, like a golden veil, draped over her.

The sea breeze tousled her long, black hair, which danced in the air, entwining around her snow-white neck and the faintly visible collarbone.

The red dress clung tightly to her shapely figure.

Her waist was so thin that it seemed one hand could encircle it.

Beneath her skirt, a pair of slender, white legs shone through, barefoot on the soft sand. Her ankles were delicate, and her toes were round and lovely, like pearls.

She's so beautiful she doesn't look real.

Like a siren stepping out of a painting, she comes specifically to seduce people's souls.

The entire beach was deathly silent.

All that could be heard was the "whoosh" of the waves crashing against the beach and the soldiers' heavy breathing.

Jiang Wu seemed oblivious to the stares from those around her.

She bent down, searching for pretty seashells on the beach.

This movement caused her skirt to lift slightly, revealing more of her fair thighs.

This also allowed her perfect body curves to be displayed more clearly in front of everyone.

"Gulp."

Someone swallowed hard.

The sound, like a switch, instantly shattered the silence.

"I...I'm not seeing things, am I? Is that a fairy descending to earth?"

"It's...it's so beautiful..."

"Who is she? Is she a new family member on our island? I've never seen her before."

"Her figure and face are even more beautiful than those of celebrities in magazines!"

The young soldiers lowered their voices and began to whisper amongst themselves.

Their eyes seemed glued to Jiang Wu, never blinking.

His face showed undisguised amazement and admiration.

A few of the bolder ones even started whistling.

Jiang Wu picked up a colorful seashell and listened to it.

Then, she looked up and glanced in the direction from which the whistle was coming.

Her lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile that could captivate anyone.

That smile was like a hook, instantly capturing everyone's heart.

The soldiers who were whistling blushed instantly, scratched their heads embarrassedly, but couldn't help but continue to steal glances at her.

"That's... Commander Qin's wife, isn't it?"

Finally, a veteran who had been in the army for a long time recognized Jiang Wu.

"What?!"

"Is she that drama queen Jiang Wu?"

"That can't be! I heard that although she's pretty, she always has a long face, like everyone owes her eight million. How could she be like this?"

"Yes, it's completely different from what I've heard!"

The crowd gasped in disbelief.

Commander Qin's notoriously "drama queen" wife is actually such a beautiful and alluring woman.

This... this is unbearable!

If you had a daughter-in-law like that, you'd spoil her even if she caused the sky to fall!

In an instant, everyone's gaze towards Jiang Wu changed again.

What started as simple amazement turned into envy, jealousy, and even a hint of... sympathy.

Commander Qin sympathized with them.

To have such a stunning beauty by his side and still sleep at the military base every day, that takes a lot of willpower!

Just as the soldiers were lost in their fantasies, a chilling voice boomed behind them.

"What are you all standing there for! Is training over?!"

It's Qin Lie.

He and his team had just returned from an exercise at the rocky beach.

From afar, this strange scene could be seen on the beach.

His soldiers, as if possessed, stared intently in one direction.

He followed their gaze.

Then, he was stunned.

Qin Lie recognized the woman at a glance.

It's Jiang Wu.

She was wearing a stunning red dress that he had never seen before.

The color was like a ball of fire, instantly igniting his eyes.

She stood barefoot in the sunset, as beautiful as an unreal dream.

That dream had haunted him all night.

It caused him great suffering and left him feeling utterly humiliated.

Qin Lie's heart clenched painfully.

Immediately afterwards, an uncontrollable rage surged from his chest to the top of his head.

He saw it.

He saw the undisguised, naked gazes of his soldiers as they looked at her.

That look is the most primal, possessive look a man gives when he looks at a woman.

But she didn't avoid it.

She even smiled at them!

That smile was so bright, so... alluring.

Qin Lie felt his blood freeze into ice in an instant.

His face, already taut from a day of intense training, was now as black as the bottom of a pot.

The air pressure around me was terrifyingly low.

He strode confidently toward Jiang Wu.

He walked very fast, with an air of impending doom.

The soldiers on the beach sensed the terrifying rage emanating from him.

Everyone fell silent instantly.

They stood ramrod straight, eyes fixed straight ahead, not daring to even breathe loudly.

The beach, which had been bustling just moments before, suddenly became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Jiang Wu also saw him.

She was still bent over picking up seashells when she looked up at him with some surprise.

"Qin Lie? You're back?"

Her voice carried a hint of joy at seeing her husband.

Qin Lie did not answer her.

He walked up to her, his tall figure completely enveloping her in shadow.

His gaze was like two sharp knives, sliding from her bare shoulders to her slender waist, and then to her long, snow-white legs that were faintly visible beneath her red dress.

With each second he looked, the anger in his eyes intensified.

He didn't say a word.

To Jiang Wu's astonishment, he quickly took off his military jacket, which still carried his body heat and the smell of sweat.

Then, he bent down and, with an almost rough force, wrapped the large coat tightly around her from head to toe.

It completely obscured all her springtime beauty and all her charm.

Only a small, bewildered head was visible.

"ah!"

Jiang Wu gasped in surprise at his sudden action.

His breath filled the air with a strong, masculine scent, tinged with sweat.

The smell wasn't unpleasant at all; instead, it made her cheeks burn uncontrollably.

"Qin Lie, what are you doing!"

She struggled for a moment, trying to get out of the coat.

But the next second, her body suddenly felt light.

He was lifted up horizontally by a pair of strong arms.

It's a princess carry.

Qin Lie simply held her in his arms, turned around and left without saying a word.

His steps were both quick and steady.

He held an adult woman in his arms as if she were a ball of cotton, without any effort.

"Qin Lie! Put me down! Are you crazy?!"

Jiang Wu finally realized what was happening.

She struggled and cried out in his arms.

Being hugged like that by him in public is just too embarrassing!

Although... the feeling of being forcefully possessed by a man is not bad at all.

"Shut up!"

Qin Lie squeezed out two words through gritted teeth.

He tightened his grip on his arms.

Like an iron clamp, it held her firmly in its arms, unable to move.

Jiang Wu felt a little pain from his grip, but more than that, she felt a heart-pounding, domineering sense of possession.

She simply stopped struggling.

She buried her face in his firm chest and secretly smiled.

This man, when he gets jealous, is really... adorable.

Behind them, the soldiers on the beach had all turned to stone.

They stood there, stunned and bewildered.

His eyeballs were practically popping out of their sockets.

What just happened?

Their Commander Qin was as cold as an iceberg...

it turns out……

In front of all of them, he took off his clothes and wrapped them up around his wife.

And then, in such a domineering manner, he carried the person away?!

Is this... is this still the Commander Qin they know?!

Is that Qin Lie, the one who was indifferent to women, serious and rigid, and who valued military discipline above all else?!

"Am I...am I dreaming?" a new recruit murmured.

"Pinch me, quick!" another soldier said to his comrade beside him.

"Ouch! You actually pinched me!"

Does it hurt?

"pain!"

"Then it's not a dream!"

The beach erupted in chaos once again.

Everyone looked at Qin Lie's departing figure with the eyes of someone looking at a god.

That figure was tall, upright, and full of power.

He was still holding his "trophies" in his arms.

This scene was deeply imprinted in the minds of all the soldiers.

From then on, a new and exciting version of the legend about Commander Qin and his "demon" wife was added to the military compound.
