"You, someone who doesn't even have a partner, are recommending a date spot to a married couple?" Qiao Shouyan is usually quiet, but when he does speak, it's anything but.

He then looked at Lu Zhengjun, "Don't forget about sparring even on dates and holidays."

Lu Zhengjun: "..."

Brother-in-law, the days I can spar with you are numbered.

"Don't worry, I won't forget." Lu Zhengjun smiled.

Qiao Xinruo raised her hand with an expression that said she knew everything, and said, "My sister doesn't need to ask for leave. Whenever she wants to rest, she can just switch shifts with me. We haven't been in the army for long, so it's not easy for us to ask for leave."

"Yes, I plan to take a three- to five-day break," Su Yueya said. She and Lu Zhengjun didn't plan to go too far, since their family needed the space, and she shouldn't be away for too long.

Therefore, Lu Zhengjun, even on vacation, acted as if she were "working".

Aside from spending time with Su Yueya, he spent the rest of his time freezing time for an hour, then speeding it up tenfold, immersing himself in martial arts manuals, practicing until he reached a state of relentless focus, regardless of day or night.

"Crescent Moon, I'm planning to go home tomorrow to see my parents. Will you come with me?" Lu Zhengjun asked.

To carry out the mission, he had to fake his death. Besides Su Yueya, the people Lu Zhengjun was most worried about were his parents, Lu Anguo and Bai Xiuhui.

The loss of a son in middle age, the white-haired burying the black-haired...

The thought of his mother's distress made Lu Zhengjun feel unfilial, but on the other hand, he was also concerned about the greater good of his country. He was truly torn.

The only thing we can do is spend more time with them.

"What kind of question is that?" Su Yueya asked, somewhat annoyed. "If I'm not going with you, who do you want to bring?"

"I did not mean that……"

"I know, I was just kidding. Xinruo and I just switched shifts, so let's go back to see Mom and Dad together tomorrow. I'll bring them some vegetables and fruits, change the water in the water tank, oh, and grab a few bottles of health supplements... Anyway, you have to cover for me then." Su Yueya planned, counting on her fingers.

"Okay." Lu Zhengjun looked at Su Yueya with a doting expression, but there was always a faint, indelible sadness in his eyes.

He couldn't let Su Yueya see it, so he always hid his emotions.

The next day, the two went to visit Lu Anguo and Bai Xiuhui.

"Strengthening and health pills? These are really popular lately. I heard you invented them, Yueya. How are you so amazing!" Bai Xiuhui pinched Su Yueya's cheek.

Bai Xiuhui and Lu Anguo grew to like their daughter-in-law more and more the more they looked at her.

Especially when they heard that Su Yueya had developed a health-strengthening pill, which was so popular that it was often out of stock and impossible to buy, they felt proud of their daughter-in-law.

"Mom, you and Dad won't mind that I'm only bringing it now, will you?" Su Yueya explained, "Because you and Dad are both in good health, I don't think you need to take this yet, but you can take these bottles and give them to the elderly in your family or to friends who need them."

“How could Mom bear to blame you?” Bai Xiuhui said.

She saw her son's face now—Bai Xiuhui and Lu Anguo thought it was a human skin mask, unaware that Lu Zhengjun's real face had been healed.

Just being able to see Lu Zhengjun's "good face" was enough for Bai Xiuhui to be very grateful to Su Yueya.

What mother would be willing to watch her son live his whole life with a disfigured face?

Moreover, she had already made Lu Zhengjun so handsome.

Although her son hadn't shown any concern about his face before, it must have been unbearable for him to suddenly go from a handsome guy to having his face disfigured and covered in scars!

Even though her son didn't say anything, she, as his mother, knew the truth.

“I knew Mom loved me the most. By the way, I recently learned a few new dishes. I’ll cook them for you and Dad today,” Su Yueya said, then winked at Lu Zhengjun.

She had to monopolize the use of the kitchen in order to replace all the water in the water tank with spiritual spring water.

"Mom will help you." Bai Xiuhui couldn't bear to see her daughter-in-law work so hard alone.

"Mom!" Lu Zhengjun received the signal and immediately sprang into action, grabbing Bai Xiuhui and preventing her from leaving. "Mom, I remember there was a photo album in my old bedroom, I'm looking for..."

"How old are you? You can't even take care of your own things?" Bai Xiuhui was indeed "tricked".

Su Yueya quickly took the opportunity to go to the kitchen and replace the spiritual spring water.

During dinner, the family started talking again about the human skin mask that Su Yueya had made some time ago, and the secret technique that Liu Yuying had led everyone to practice...

"Zhengjun, when did you learn the secret manual from your mother-in-law? I heard you recently took on ten people at once, that's amazing!" Lu Anguo couldn't hide his pride when talking about his son's outstanding performance. He had been the envy of his colleagues quite a bit lately.

People used to think that the Lu family's choice of a daughter-in-law was a waste of Lu Zhengjun's title as a "King of Soldiers," as she was just an unknown girl who was good-looking.

But as Su Yueya recognized her relatives and led the Qiao family to "a higher level," Lu Anguo's colleagues could only express their envy.

"My husband is definitely the best!" Su Yueya chimed in, thinking to herself, "Lu Zhengjun is actually quite restrained."

If Lu Zhengjun were to unleash his full potential, he would be the most formidable. Although he started later than Liu Yuying, his youth and talent made him the best trainee.

"Don't talk about that. You two should eat more. Crescent Moon made this especially for you." As she spoke, Lu Zhengjun put a piece of pork rib on her father's plate.

Su Yueya followed suit and put a piece of pig's trotter on Bai Xiuhui's plate. "Mom, eat more of this pig's trotter. I stewed it until it was very tender. It's rich in collagen, and eating more of it is good for a woman's skin!"

“Okay, since it’s made by Crescent Moon, of course I’ll eat more!” Bai Xiuhui said with a smile.

After a pleasant and harmonious meal, Lu Zhengjun left with Su Yueya after dark.

Although Lu Zhengjun wanted to take the opportunity to spend more time with her parents, she couldn't act too unusually, otherwise they might become suspicious.

After all, I usually only go home occasionally. If I go home too often now, it will seem deliberate.

Lu Zhengjun didn't want her parents to suspect anything, and she especially couldn't let Su Yueya feel that something was wrong, otherwise there might be problems when she faked her death during a mission in the future.

To deceive the enemy, you must first deceive your own people.

In the evening, I returned to my space.

Lu Zhengjun usually goes to practice the secret manuals, and Su Yueya occasionally accompanies him in his practice. Most of the time, however, she spends her time reading in the library.

For doctors, learning is a never-ending process.

Just like Qiao Hanxue, even though he is already the dean, he has never stopped learning.
