"Huo Tingxiao, you liar, I don't believe you."

Wen Xingyue slept for almost noon the next day before waking up.

Huo Tingxiao proved with his actions that he was not old. The two of them did everything they should and shouldn't have done, except for the last step.

Wen Xingyue was covered by the quilt and was reluctant to be called to eat by Huo Tingxiao.

She slept so much that she missed breakfast.

During this time, Huo's mother and the others were worried that she might be feeling unwell, but in the end, Huo Tingxiao said that she was tired from reading for too long.

"I'm a liar, it's my fault. Mom and Dad went out for a walk, and Xiaojun went to play with her classmates. I made your favorite dried fish and cooked red date and milk sweet porridge."

Huo Tingxiao bent down and scooped her up from the bed, pulling back the blanket to reveal her small face. Her face was flushed and full of color from being covered up for so long. He lowered his head and affectionately pecked her soft face.

"Hmph, you're not allowed to kiss me."

Wen Xingyue turned her head and buried her head on his shoulder.

"I was wrong, don't be angry." Huo Tingxiao suppressed a laugh, his voice magnetic.

"Just because you made a mistake doesn't mean you can stop doing it next time." Wen Xingyue didn't accept his apology.

"..." No, that won't work.

Huo Tingxiao remained silent.

With his young wife in his arms, he couldn't be a monk.

Although we can't eat meat right now, we can still drink some meat broth.

"Huo Tingxiao! You won't even lie to me."

Wen Xingyue was unhappy and tugged at his ear.

This man is so bad, he doesn't even know how to lie to her.

"I don't want to lie to you, because I love you, so I want to be close to you, and I want you to have nothing but me in your heart and eyes." Huo Tingxiao looked down at her.

Huo Tingxiao wasn't good at sweet talk or lying. "Love" was the best he could say. He longed for intimacy with her, he longed to possess her completely, and he wanted her to belong to him entirely.

Men are inherently possessive, especially when it comes to the person they love. That possessiveness will only multiply by hundreds and thousands, filling their hearts and occupying their entire being.

I want to be with her forever.

"Bad guy."

Wen Xingyue lowered her head and bit Huo Tingxiao's shoulder.

She was terrified last night, but she wasn't unhappy at all when she was with Huo Tingxiao.

"I'm bad, can you scold me after you've eaten?"

Huo Tingxiao placed the quilt on the bed, then took the person out of the room to go to the living room for dinner.

"Want to try some?"

Huo Tingxiao put her down, stood up and served her a bowl of red date and milk porridge.

Drinking porridge can warm your stomach when it's cold.

"Have you got a meal yet?"

Wen Xingyue scooped up some sweet porridge with a spoon and looked up at him.

"I've eaten, you can have some. The dried anchovies were just fried and they're very crispy."

Huo Tingxiao sat down next to her and placed a plate of golden-brown fried dried fish in front of her.

Wen Xingyue picked one up and put it in her mouth. It was crispy and fragrant.

"How is it?" Huo Tingxiao looked at her expectantly.

"It's delicious! How come you can cook?"

Having eaten something delicious, Wen Xingyue was in a good mood, so I won't say anything more.

"When we're on a mission, there's no fixed place to cook. Sometimes we're ambushed in the jungle and there aren't good cooking facilities, so we have to cook for ourselves. We'll get the hang of it over time."

Huo Tingxiao said with a smile.

The conditions for carrying out the mission were harsh. Sometimes we would lose contact with our contact for several days and run out of food. We had to find food on the spot, such as grass, tree roots, wild fruits, and we would hunt birds and snakes on the mountain and roast them on the spot. We did all sorts of things.

Over time, I learned to cook for myself.

However, since we were busy in the army, we usually ate in the mess hall.

Later, he injured his leg and went home to recuperate. Since Wang Ma cooked for him, Huo Tingxiao rarely had to lift a finger.

"Huo Tingxiao, do you want to rejoin the army?"

Wen Xingyue felt a sense of ease and joy that she had never experienced since joining the army. She took a bite of a dried fish and looked at him.

"..." Mentioning returning to the army, Huo Tingxiao's cheerful demeanor faded somewhat.

To be honest, does he want to go back? He definitely does.

The team already knows that his leg has been slowly recovering recently, and the commander has spoken with him and asked him to return to the unit.

Huo Tingxiao was an indispensable talent in the army, with outstanding military achievements. If his leg hadn't been injured, his position would have been promoted. The leaders in the unit were very sorry for him because of his leg injury.

Therefore, even though he was injured, the commander kept suppressing his transfer application, hoping that Huo Tingxiao could return home once his leg was healed.

But once he returned to his unit, he certainly wouldn't be able to look after her all the time. His young wife was pure of heart, and occasionally had a childlike nature, making people want to pamper and protect her.

Back in the army, although he could try to spend time with her, it was definitely not like when he was resting at home and could be with her all the time. Moreover, once he received a mission, it was normal for him to not be able to go home for ten days or half a month.

"Huo Tingxiao, your leg is healed and there are no aftereffects. You can go back now."

Seeing his silence, Wen Xingyue assumed he didn't want to go back, so she put down her spoon and looked at him.

Huo Tingxiao should be a shining star in the military; the military is where he truly belongs. It would be such a waste if he didn't go back; I haven't even seen him in his uniform yet.

Huo Tingxiao's eyes narrowed; he hadn't expected her to think this way.

Huo Tingxiao thought that she probably didn't want to go back to the army.

"Xingyue, I'm going back to the army and I'll be very busy soon. I might not be able to come home for two or three days, and I might not be able to take care of you then."

Huo Tingxiao spoke to her earnestly.

Since she brought it up, Huo Tingxiao also shared his thoughts with her wholeheartedly.

“Huo Tingxiao, I’m not a child anymore. I will continue to practice medicine and save lives. I will also have my own things to do. You have your things to do, and I will have mine. Besides, you’re just on a mission, it’s not like you’re not coming back.”

Wen Xingyue was stunned for a moment, then realized that Huo Tingxiao was not returning to the army because of her.

"..." Huo Tingxiao's heart trembled violently.

The commander has spoken with him several times recently, and the political commissar has also talked to him several times, hoping that he can go back this year.

Huo Tingxiao hadn't figured it out yet and wanted to discuss it with Wen Xingyue, but he didn't know how to bring it up with her.

Because in his heart, he always regarded Wen Xingyue as someone who needed to be taken care of and accompanied. The little peach blossom spirit had a special identity; she was not born and raised in the human world. The little peach blossom spirit was a little demon who had never been human. Even though she had been living in the human world for some time, Huo Tingxiao was still worried about her.

But now, Huo Tingxiao suddenly realized that she seemed to be an independent person as well. She was mentally resilient, simple-minded but not foolish, persistent, and persevering.

She studied medicine and soon she would take the exam for a traditional Chinese medicine qualification certificate. After passing the exam, she would be a real doctor.

She will practice medicine and save lives, and she will also have her own career. With Mr. Li paving the way, her future is bright.

He worried about her and couldn't let go of her, but he forgot that she herself would have to fly away one day.

"Huo Tingxiao, you are a soldier, a soldier who protects our country, a truly upright soldier. You are not only my husband, but the country needs you, the people need you. Huo Tingxiao, you should go back..."

Wen Xingyue took his hand.
