The couple's actions were perfectly normal; in fact, they were much more restrained in public.

Their reckless conversation truly astonished the students.

Tang Yani was the most excited. She had originally wanted to run forward to help Gu An'an, but Xiao Yuheng appeared halfway there, so she lost her chance to appear.

"Ahhh! So this is what An'an's husband looks like! He's so handsome!"

Tang Yani was truly smitten, but what she liked wasn't Xiao Yuheng himself, but rather his aura.

"An'an is keeping it a secret quite well; she has never mentioned that her husband is a soldier even once."

That's what she said, but Nan Xiaoxiao's eyes were full of smiles.

“We didn’t ask either! Right, we should have asked. If we had, An’an would definitely have told us.”

They were genuinely happy for Gu An'an. They had overheard some things these past few days and were just about to tell Gu An'an when this incident happened.

Excellent people are bound to have more gossip and trouble around them, so having a way to solve this problem once and for all is definitely the best approach.

Unlike them, Xue Ren, who was not far away, felt his heart shatter the moment Xiao Yuheng appeared.

"Ren-ge, is that Gu's husband? He's so handsome..."

Tang Gui inadvertently revealed his true feelings, but shut up when he saw Xue Ren's unpleasant expression.

"Ren-ge, I misspoke just now! That guy wasn't handsome at all, not as handsome as Ren-ge..."

Seeing Xue Ren's increasingly unpleasant expression, Tang Gui felt that his flattery had backfired.

"He is indeed more handsome than me and deserves Gu."

After saying that, Xue Ren walked towards the cafeteria without looking back. The only difference was that the delicious food he had been thinking about had lost its appeal at this moment.

Seeing how dejected he looked, Tang Gui was quite worried.

Fortunately, this state only lasted for a week. Seeing Xue Ren regain his energy, Tang Gui almost burst into tears.

Big brother! You're finally back!

Of course, that's a story for another time.

Xiao Yuheng came in a colleague's car, and Gu An'an didn't ride her bike today either, so the two of them had to take the bus back.

However, both of them enjoyed walking and chatting about their recent lives.

Especially Xiao Yuheng, he just hoped the road would be as long as possible, because he had two children when he got home, and he wouldn't have time to enjoy his wife all to himself.

However, the school is quite close to home, so even if he deliberately dawdled, he still made it home.

When Xiao Yuheng was at home, his two children, Da Bao and Er Bao, disliked him quite a bit, and the two groups of people kept fighting over Gu An'an.

But when he wasn't home, the two little ones missed him terribly, though they just didn't say it out loud.

As soon as they entered the room, the two little ones were listening to Grandpa Xiao recount the events of those years on the kang (a heated brick bed), occasionally letting out exclamations of amazement.

"Great-grandfather, you are amazing! Our country has been able to get to where it is today because of people like you."

"Yes! Great-Grandpa, I want to become like you in the future and work hard for the development of the country."

Hearing his two great-grandsons' bold words, Grandpa Xiao felt a warm glow in his heart.

Just as they were about to say something more, the two little ones saw the two people who had entered the house.

"Mom! Dad! You're back!"

He then quickly got off the kang (a heated brick bed) and ran towards the two of them.

Of course, the two of them rushed towards Gu An'an first; Xiao Yuheng was already used to their different treatment.

To everyone's surprise, after the two children hugged Gu An'an, they suddenly turned to him. Although their expressions weren't as happy as when they were facing their mother, they still hugged him.

"Dad, you still know how to come home?"

"You've been gone for a full 31 days!"

Each person said one thing, yet Xiao Yuheng unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth.

"What? Missed me?"

The two little ones turned their heads at the same time, stubbornly insisting, "We don't miss you at all."

"Yes, we don't miss you, we just feel bad that you're not home. Mom has to take care of everything at home, it's too tiring."

That's what they said, but they never let go of Xiao Yuheng's clothes for a moment.

Xiao Yuheng wasn't angry at all; instead, he felt like teasing her. "Oh? So it doesn't matter whether I'm home or not! Then I'll go back and continue studying!"

"Honey, Mom, I have something to do over there, so I have to go back now."

Gu An'an and Xiao's mother knew exactly what he was up to, but they were happy to see the two little ones jumping up and down, so they cooperated and said, "Okay, go ahead and do what you need to do."

"Honey, you don't need to come back next time if you're busy. We're doing fine at home, so don't worry."

Da Bao and Er Bao initially didn't believe it, thinking their dad was just teasing them.

They were a little confused when they saw the other person hug them and then prepare to leave.

"Sis, Dad's not really going to do this, is he?"

"No, she's definitely lying to us."

Da Bao's words were like a shot in the arm for Er Bao, who stopped in his tracks and just wanted to see when his mischievous dad would come home.

As a result, Xiao Yuheng really didn't look back. It wasn't until he stepped out of the house without looking back that the two little ones finally got anxious.

"Sis, Dad's really gone!"

"Sis, wait for me..."

Hearing hurried footsteps behind him, Xiao Yuheng's smile widened as he mentally counted down the seconds. Sure enough, just as the countdown reached its last second, his clothes were tugged at.

At the same time, there was the daughter's angry voice, "Dad, how could you do this! You clearly promised to come back once a month."

Xiao Yuheng turned his head and said, "Da Bao's words really hurt Dad. I came back during my free time, but neither you nor my brother miss me. Dad is a little sad. I might as well go back to work."

Da Bao and Er Bao immediately stopped hiding their feelings, each hugging one of their arms, "Daddy, we don't miss you."

"Yes, my sister and I often talk about you."

Seeing how anxious the two children were, Xiao Yuheng couldn't bear to tease them any longer. He picked them up, one in each arm, and asked, "Do you miss your dad, Da Bao and Er Bao?"

Da Bao buried her head in Xiao Yuheng's neck, and a girl's sweet voice rang in Xiao Yuheng's ear, "Mmm, I miss Daddy."

These few words were enough to melt Xiao Yuheng into a puddle of water. Just as he was about to say something to his daughter, his son's loud voice boomed in his ear.

“Dad, how can you think we don’t miss you or love you? We are your children. What child doesn’t love their parents?”

The words were well-spoken, but there was really no need to speak so loudly; Xiao Yuheng felt like his ears were being exploded.

"Dabao, remember that Dad will always love you."

"Erbao, what you just said was very good. Keep it up in the future."
