Chapter 99 Commander Gu's "Sweet Mission"

Their married life was as sweet as living in a honey pot.

Su Yue wakes up not by the alarm clock, but by the enticing aroma of food wafting from the kitchen.

Gu Beichen seemed to be making up for all the tenderness he had owed her over the past twenty-eight years.

Today I made black chicken soup to nourish blood and qi, tomorrow I'll switch to yam and pork rib porridge to nourish the spleen and stomach.

The stove became his new battlefield, and pots and pans became his new weapons.

The iron-blooded regimental commander, who could strike fear into the hearts of the entire regiment on the training ground, was now wearing a faded apron, his tall figure moving somewhat clumsily around the small kitchen.

His long, strong fingers held the kitchen knife with a steady grip, as firm as a rock.

Su Yue liked to lean against the door frame and watch his back as he busied himself for her.

Broad shoulders and a narrow waist, wrapped in a simple white shirt, exude a reassuring sense of strength in every inch.

"What are you looking at?"

Gu Beichen didn't turn his head, but the tips of his ears quietly turned red.

He could feel that burning gaze, like a feather tickling his heart.

"Look at our chef, I want to study how he can turn a tough guy into a stay-at-home husband." Su Yue walked over, wrapped her arms around his waist from behind, and pressed her cheek against his warm back.

Gu Beichen froze, his chopping motion halting.

He put down the cleaver, turned around, and surrounded her between himself and the stove. He looked down at her, his eyes filled with tenderness.

"As long as you like it, I'll be your cook for life."

Su Yue felt a sweet warmth in her heart and tilted her head back to kiss him on the chin.

"That won't do. I don't want people to say that I've turned you, a war hero, into a housewife."

As she spoke, she subtly observed his complexion.

Rosy cheeks, full cheeks, and bright eyes.

He was completely different from the exhausted man he was when he returned from Beijing.

Su Yue understood.

This is certainly not entirely her doing.

It was the "spiritual spring water" that she secretly dripped into his food every day that had the effect.

That was the essence of the spatial spiritual energy, enough to bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded, but it was more than enough to repair his damaged foundation.

"Have you noticed anything different about your body lately?" Su Yue asked casually.

Gu Beichen thought for a moment and answered very seriously, "Yes."

"Um?"

"Your energy is much better than before." He said succinctly, but there was a light in his deep eyes that made Su Yue blush and her heart race.

This man, ever since he started eating meat, has been like a tireless perpetual motion machine.

If she hadn't been using the spiritual spring water to regulate her own body, she probably would have surrendered long ago.

"Ahem, I'm serious." Su Yue nudged him. "I feel reassured knowing you've recovered so well. In a couple of days, we'll go to the hospital for a check-up and let Huo Ming take a look too; the data is the most reliable."

"I'll do whatever you say." Gu Beichen held her hand and kissed it. "My wife is a miracle doctor, whatever you say goes."

Two days later, at the military hospital.

Huo Ming's hands were trembling as he held Gu Beichen's latest medical examination report.

His face, which always wore a nonchalant smile, was now filled with shock, his mouth agape enough to fit an egg.

He read the report over and over again three times, then looked up at the radiant Gu Beichen, and finally his gaze fell on Su Yue, who stood calmly to the side.

"Sister-in-law... no, sister-in-law! Ancestor!"

Huo Ming was so excited that he almost knelt down before Su Yue.

"This...this is a medical miracle! This is absolutely a medical miracle!"

He pointed to a statistic in the report, his voice trembling.

"Look here! Sperm motility! Last time it was less than 3% of the normal value, but now... now it has soared to 50%!"

“All other physical indicators have recovered to his peak level, and even… even surpassed it!”

Huo Ming looked at Gu Beichen as if he were a monster, and at Su Yue as if she were a deity.

"This...how is this possible? It's only been a month! Even with the most advanced imported medicine, it shouldn't have this effect! Sister-in-law, what kind of miracle drug did you give him?"

Several doctors who were also looking at the report gathered around, all gasping in shock and discussing the matter.

"It's incredible. This speed of recovery completely defies medical common sense."

"Yes, we all know how badly Commander Gu was injured back then. It was a miracle he survived. Now he's acting like he was never injured at all."

"Comrade Su Yue's medical skills are truly miraculous!"

Faced with everyone's amazement, Su Yue simply smiled modestly.

"It's not all my doing. It's mainly because Beichen has a good physical constitution and strong willpower. I just used some formulas to strengthen his body and replenish his vital energy, along with dietary supplements, based on his constitution."

Her words, spoken so casually, only aroused even greater respect from the doctors present.

To turn the rotten into the miraculous, and to describe it so casually—that's the true demeanor of a great doctor!

Gu Beichen didn't say a word from beginning to end; he just stared at Su Yue.

In his world, it was as if he could no longer hear any other sounds.

His heart was pounding violently in his chest, not because of his physical recovery, but because of the woman before him who had created a miracle for him.

She was his miracle.

After leaving the hospital, Gu Beichen picked up Su Yue without saying a word and strode home.

"Hey! What are you doing! Put me down! There are so many people watching!" Su Yue was both embarrassed and anxious, struggling in his arms.

Gu Beichen hugged her even tighter, keeping his head down and walking forward with quick and steady steps.

The soldiers and their wives who were passing by smiled kindly when they saw this scene, and some even whistled.

Su Yue simply buried her face in his firm chest and refused to look at him.

Only after they entered their own courtyard and the door slammed shut did Gu Beichen put her down.

The next second, he pulled her into a tight, tight embrace, with such force that it was as if he wanted to meld her into his very bones.

Su Yue could feel his burning body temperature and his rapid heartbeat.

"young married woman……"

His voice was terribly hoarse, with a barely perceptible tremor.

"Thank you."

All the words I wanted to say can be summed up in these three words.

Su Yue could understand his feelings at that moment.

For a man of great stature, a decorated soldier, physical disability is a torment more unbearable than death.

It was she who made him whole again.

"Silly boy, we're husband and wife, why are you being so polite with me?" Su Yue stood on tiptoe and gave him a comforting kiss on the lips.
