Because Mu Chen was injured, Lin Chuchu was granted leave, any number of days, and she could return home and cancel her leave.

Exhausted after a long day, Lin Chuchu quickly fell asleep.

The next morning, Lin Chuchu was woken up by Xiao Lu.

"Sister Chuchu, I just saw a doctor making rounds."

It wouldn't do for Lin Chuchu to still be sleeping when the doctor arrives.

Lin Chuchu nodded, immediately regaining her senses.

Medical conditions aren't that good these days, and Mu Chen was only able to get a double room because the bureau chief pulled some strings.

There was no bathroom in the ward; there were only two on the entire floor. Lin Chuchu didn't plan to wash up for the time being and would do so after the doctor left.

Mu Chen also woke up; he had woken up when Xiao Lu entered the ward.

Team Leader Qin has already sent someone to buy breakfast, and it will be delivered soon.

Yesterday, Lin Chuchu gave all the money and tickets she had to Captain Qin, asking him to help her get food these days and also to bring a portion for everyone else in the hospital.

Team Leader Qin didn't want it because they would receive subsidies from their superiors if they went out with Lin Chuchu.

"Captain Qin, you're here because of Mu Chen. I won't feel at ease if you don't accept your offer."

Lin Chuchu knew that Qin and his team were here to protect not only her, but also Mu Chen and the injured police officers.

If something happens, Captain Qin and his team won't ignore it. Although we're not from the same system, we're all comrades-in-arms.

The doctor arrived quickly and examined Mu Chen. Under Lin Chuchu's anxious gaze, the doctor smiled and said...

"This young man is in good physical condition. As long as he takes good care of his injury, it will heal quickly."

Lin Chuchu couldn't help but smile and thank the doctor.

"Thank you, doctor. It's all thanks to your excellent medical skills that Mu Chen was able to successfully complete the surgery."

So close to his heart, if Mu Chen suffered a massive heart hemorrhage, he would be going to meet the King of Hell.

Mu Chen is so powerful, maybe the King of Hell will appoint him to an official position.

As soon as the strange thought crossed her mind, Lin Chuchu quickly shook her head; she couldn't possibly curse Mu Chen to die.

Everyone likes to hear nice things, and doctors are no exception. He smiled and said some things to be aware of.

Lin Chuchu wrote it down carefully.

After seeing the doctor out, Lin Chuchu turned around and saw Mu Chen staring intently at her.

Perhaps the two were gazing at each other too sweetly, and Xiao Lu didn't want to stay in the room and be subjected to their public displays of affection, so she left the room.

Mu Chen looked at her with burning eyes. He really wanted to kiss her; he had wanted to kiss her since he woke up last night.

He confirmed that he was still alive and that Lin Chuchu was in his room.

Lin Chuchu felt a little uncomfortable being stared at like that, and her face turned slightly red.

Why is this guy staring at her like that? It's kind of embarrassing.

"Do you... need to use the restroom?"

Mu Chen's breath hitched, and he looked at Lin Chuchu with a mournful gaze. His wife was a master at ruining the atmosphere.

He beckoned to Lin Chuchu, "Wife, come here."

His voice was husky and deep, captivating Lin Chuchu's heart, which pounded as if it were about to burst out of her chest.

Mu Chen is very handsome, has a good physique, and exudes a military aura; otherwise, he wouldn't have attracted the attention of so many young women and wives.

Lin Chuchu walked over, and Mu Chen made her bend down. Their faces drew closer and closer, and Mu Chen kissed Lin Chuchu hard on the lips.

A warm, fleeting kiss brushed against her lips, and Lin Chuchu felt her cheeks flush, feeling a little embarrassed.

Lin Chuchu quickly took a step back and glared at him.

Mu Chen smiled gently, like a cat that had just stolen some fish.

"You...I'll go wash up!"

Lin Chuchu took her washbasin and towel and went to the bathroom.

Mu Chen watched the shy person leave, his smile fading as he frowned and fell into deep thought.

When Lin Chuchu returned after washing her face, she saw the bureau chief and two of Mu Chen's colleagues talking to Mu Chen.

Upon seeing Lin Chuchu return, he immediately shut up.

The bureau chief smiled and said, "Hello, Comrade Lin, this is our third meeting."

Lin Chuchu greeted her with a smile, "Hello, Director. Have you eaten? I had someone buy breakfast. Would you like some?"

The bureau chief waved his hand repeatedly, "No need, no need, we've already eaten. We just came to see Mu Chen. We're relieved to hear from the doctor that he's doing well."

"Comrade Lin, you're busy, we'll be going now."

Without waiting for Lin Chuchu and Mu Chen to stop him, he left.

He still has a lot to do. Several comrades died this time, and there are also injured people. The families of the martyrs need comfort.

They haven't caught those enemies yet; they need to hurry and investigate their whereabouts.

His gaze was grim. The fact that this operation had been leaked meant that there were enemy spies on their side who had caused the deaths of so many people. He was determined to make them pay the price.

Soon, only Lin Chuchu and Mu Chen remained in the room, and the food they had bought was placed on the small table next to the hospital bed.

Seeing Lin Chuchu pretending to be busy and avoiding looking at him, Mu Chen smiled silently.

Having been married for so long, he knew that although Lin Chuchu seemed aloof, she genuinely liked him. She was especially prone to shyness when they were alone or intimate.

Therefore, Mu Chen really enjoyed teasing Lin Chuchu.

He loves Lin Chuchu, so he wants to live well and stay with her forever.

Lin Chuchu glared at Mu Chen, not wanting to talk to him.

Lin Chuchu handed him the porridge very gently, watching him eat it little by little with the spoon.

Lin Chuchu knew that Mu Chen wouldn't let her feed him anymore; last night was a special case, and he was too weak.

Mu Chen believed he could feed himself today.
