Shen Xiaobei smiled and deliberately defeated Duan Xichuan.

"Even if you lied to me, your husband won't go back tonight! I finally get to see my wife, how can I leave so soon? Tonight, husband, you have to stay with your wife."

"Are you serious? I was just kidding!"

"Let's chat for a while and then go back. Even if you stay here overnight, we can't sleep together. In that case, why don't we go back and sleep separately?"

"You little bitch, are you so willing to let your husband go?"

"You have to be willing to let go even if you're reluctant! Work is more important than love, isn't it?"

"You little bitch, you're trying to trick me again! Forget it, let's go. I'll leave now. It's not good to go back too late. Come on, give me a kiss and I'll leave."

When Shen Xiaobei heard Duan Xichuan’s words, he lowered his head obediently and kissed him.

After Duan Xichuan touched her lips, he was reluctant to let go immediately, so he stood up and kissed her back for a while before letting go.

"Girl, I'm really leaving."

"Um."

"If I really leave, do you have anything else to say to your husband? For example, ask your husband when he will come to see you next time?"

"I won't ask. If you want to come, you will come naturally. If you don't want to come, what's the point of asking!"

"You little bitch, you're so reluctant to let me go, yet you're still trying to be tough. Can't you just show some weakness to your husband?"

"No, I'm a strong woman and I'm not used to showing weakness!"

"Well, okay, my strong wife, your husband won't ask any more questions. I'm leaving now. You take care of yourself here. Your husband will come to see you whenever he has time."

"Well, take these two bottles of water with you on the road and drink them. Be careful."

"Okay, got it."

Duan Xichuan took the two bottles of water given by Shen Xiaobei, looked at her reluctantly, and left.

Shen Xiaobei did not leave the classroom to see him off, but stood there until his back disappeared in the night, and then he silently shed two lines of reluctant tears.

The resettlement site where she and Duan Xichuan lived was so far apart, and everyone had to get up early in the morning to go to work, so she didn't want to show that she was too attached to him and make him feel uneasy and sad when he left.

Since she chose to be a substitute teacher here, Shen Xiaobei knew that she had to get used to living here alone.

Otherwise, once she became dependent on him, and he returned to the army, she would be left alone here for the long nights, which would be really hard to endure...
