After returning, Captain Yuan thought about it and decided to apologize to Zhou An.
He has been in the army for so long and has finally made it to where he is today. He can't let everything be ruined because of his son.
Besides, I heard that Zhou An’s wife is pregnant, so he must be soft-hearted.
He used a self-torture trick with his son, and maybe the matter would be settled.
Thinking of this, he winked at Shengli.
Shengli burst into tears: "Aunt, I know I was wrong. I didn't mean to do that that day."
"The road was too slippery due to the snow, and I accidentally fell. Please don't get angry with me..."
The harsh sound was particularly clear in the small room, causing Xu Zhixia's face to change.
Captain Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and thought complacently, women are really easy to fool.
Little did she know that Xu Zhixia was just disturbed by the noise, and her expression became even uglier.
"Excuse me."
She interrupted Shengli and said, "It doesn't matter whether you did it intentionally or not. The army will give me an explanation for this matter."
"If you have nothing else, please go back. I need to rest."
Captain Yuan walked in with a smile, as if he hadn't heard it, opened the package and revealed the contents.
In addition to the common snacks, there are also two bottles of canned yellow peaches.
A trace of heartache flashed in his eyes. He had spent a lot of money to exchange this for someone else.
"Comrade Xu, I'm showing my sincerity here. Why don't you just forget it?"
"Or if you have any requests, just ask, I will satisfy them as long as I can."
If he can get over this matter now, he will have plenty of opportunities to settle accounts with Xu Zhixia in the future.
Xu Zhixia didn't even glance at him and said coldly, "Didn't I make it clear enough?"
"I don't need any of that."
As soon as the words fell, the scene suddenly became a little awkward.
Captain Yuan took a step forward and was about to say something else when Zhou An suddenly spoke up, "Captain Yuan."
"You're a smart person, and you don't want things to get ugly, right?"
"If I remember correctly, the notice of your handling has not yet come down."
Captain Yuan heard the hidden meaning of these words and was immediately filled with resentment.
He gritted his teeth, raised his right hand high, and hit the victory next to him.
After the slap, Shengli's face suddenly swelled up.
Seungri was caught off guard and burst into tears after he came to his senses.
Compared to before, this time it was full of sincerity.
Xu Zhixia was furious: "What are you doing?"
She didn't feel sorry for Seungri, but because Seungri's face was swollen from being slapped in her ward, and she didn't know how many rumors would spread if the news got out.
This is also the purpose of Captain Yuan. He doesn't believe that Xu Zhixia will not give in for the sake of Zhou An's reputation.
His eyes flickered, and he spoke earnestly, "I'm just venting my anger for you."
"Comrade Xu, it's my fault that I didn't raise my child well, but look at what has happened..."
A chill ran through Xu Zhixia's heart. If he could treat his own children like this, wouldn't he treat outsiders the same way?
She didn't dare to think any further. She couldn't let Captain Yuan stay on the island any longer.
Zhou An thought the same thing. His voice turned colder: "Please leave. You are not welcome here."
Captain Yuan was stunned. He didn't expect that even after he had done this, Xu Zhixia still wouldn't give in.
He felt a secret hatred in his heart, but he did not show it, and left with victory, looking back every step of the way.
As he walked out of the ward, he could no longer suppress his anger.
He shouted at the still crying Victory: "Shut up."
Shengli was so frightened that he stood there in a daze, shrinking his neck, not daring to make a sound, his face flushed red.
A gloomy look flashed in Captain Yuan's eyes. Since Zhou An is so unkind, don't blame him for being unjust.
He whispered a few words to Shengli and strode out with him.
Xu Zhixia didn't know what happened after Captain Yuan and Shengli left, and she still felt angry.
Zhou An soothed her, "Xia Xia, there's no need to get upset over insignificant people."
"I was wrong today. I shouldn't have let them appear in front of you."
The Yuan family...should have left earlier.
Xu Zhixia took a deep breath and managed to calm down.
She said, "I know, I'm just a little angry. After all, it's his child."
She didn't want to continue this topic, so she changed the subject: "When will the uncle you mentioned arrive?"
Zhou An agreed softly: "It should be in the afternoon. His last name is Wu. I believe you will like him very much."
Xu Zhixia blinked and put a question mark in her mind.
Since they are elderly people who have been with Zhou's father and mother for a long time, they shouldn't be difficult to get along with, right?
She soon found out, no wonder Zhou An said that.
In the evening, Mr. Xu and Zhou An came with an old man in his fifties. He had gray hair and looked kind.
"This is Xia Xia, right? I've heard Zhou An mention you before."
Uncle Wu's eyes lit up when he saw Xu Zhixia in front of him. He finally understood why Zhou An was so obsessed with Xu Zhixia.
It is no exaggeration to say that Xu Zhixia is the most elegant girl he has ever met.
Xu Zhixia was a little nervous and gave an embarrassed smile.
Uncle Wu said with a smile: "You and Zhou An can just call me Uncle Wu."
"I should have come to see you first when I got to the island, but Zhou An said you didn't eat well at noon, so I went back and prepared something for you."
"Try it and see if it suits your taste. If not, I'll change it."
As he spoke, he put out the lunch box he brought.
As soon as I opened it, a fragrant aroma came to my nose.
Xu Zhixia's eyes lit up and she swallowed subconsciously.
In front of me is a meat dish, a vegetable dish, and a bowl of soup, which are all delicious.
The stir-fried pork looks very colorful, and the fried eggs and persimmons next to it are even more appetizing.
Just by smelling the soup, you can taste its delicious flavor.
Xu Zhixia has a secret that she has never told anyone, which is that she attaches great importance to her appetite.
But now it seems... Zhou An seems to know, otherwise he wouldn't have said those words.
She looked at Zhou An thoughtfully, and met his smiling eyes, her face suddenly blushing.
Uncle Wu watched the young couple's reaction with great interest and felt relieved.
If Zhou's father and mother saw this scene, they would probably feel relieved.
Xu Zhixia didn't eat much at noon, and she was really hungry now.
So I didn't hesitate and picked up the chopsticks to take a bite of the fried eggs with persimmons.
A sour and sweet taste spreads in the mouth, and it tastes so delicious when paired with a mouthful of rice.
Xu Zhixia's eyes were curved and she couldn't stop eating.
After eating, I felt a rare sense of satisfaction.
Zhou An was helpless and said, "Uncle Wu, it's a good thing you came. Before, Xia Xia couldn't eat a few bites."
For a chef, there is nothing more gratifying than having people like the food he cooks.
If Uncle Wu loved Xu Zhixia at the beginning, he now really likes her even more.
