Chapter 292 Chimpanzee
next day
On her way back from taking Zhou Ni to daycare, Zhou Yan ran into Lu Huailin, who had just bought breakfast from the military canteen.
She gazed at his tall, upright figure with fascination, until her eyes shifted to him carrying breakfast.
A hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes. Gu Yihan was so lucky; she didn't have to take care of the children or cook.
"Commander Lu, Gu Yihan is so lucky to have married you."
Zhou Yan deliberately used a high-pitched, affected voice.
Upon hearing this, Lu Huailin instantly got goosebumps all over his body.
She glanced up at Zhou Yan, who was deliberately putting on a shy pose and winking at her.
It was like a chimpanzee courting; it almost made him vomit his leftovers.
He roared sharply, "Get out!"
After saying that, he quickly strode towards the courtyard.
When I got home, I didn't even have time for breakfast. I went back to the bedroom and leaned over to give my still-sleepy wife a series of passionate kisses.
Even a dead pig would wake up from this action, let alone Gu Yihan, who is a living, breathing person.
She opened her eyes groggily, pushed Lu Huailin away forcefully, and said irritably, "Can't a person get any sleep?!"
Lu Huailin stared intently at his wife, and said aggrievedly, "Wife, I need to see more beautiful things to cleanse my eyes."
Gu Yihan blushed slightly upon hearing this, even though they were an old married couple.
But this is the first time someone has said sweet nothings to me so early in the morning.
Then Lu Huailin rested his head on his wife's neck and shoulder.
He said, feeling wronged, "Honey, you have no idea that Zhou Yan actually flirted with you, her dark face! It almost made me throw up!"
Gu Yihan: "..."
One hour later
Gu Yihan hummed a song as she pedaled her bicycle with great effort, in a cheerful mood.
"Wow, it's been so long! Xiao Han has become more and more beautiful!"
Zhao Ju caught up with Gu Yihan on her bicycle and teased her with a smile.
Gu Yihan turned her head to look at Zhao Ju, whom she hadn't seen in a long time, and said with a smile, "Sister Ju, you're still talking about me!"
"You've had two kids and it's like you haven't had any at all. Your waist is so slim that Deputy Battalion Commander Wang could probably wrap his hand around it."
"Hahaha." Zhao Ju laughed heartily.
"I thought that since we haven't seen each other for so long, our relationship would gradually drift apart!"
"The moment you opened your mouth, I knew it was the same as before, nothing had changed!"
Gu Yihan smiled upon hearing this, but did not respond.
How could it possibly be the same as before?
Since Zhao Ju gave birth, she has been busy taking care of the baby while she herself has been busy going to work.
Living far apart, the two saw each other less and less over time, and their relationship gradually faded.
Textile factory gate
Gu Yihan looked at Hu Shan, who was confronting a female comrade.
She asked疑惑地问道, "Sister Shan, why don't you go inside?"
She stopped her bicycle, glanced at the voluptuous woman, and froze when she saw the face of the child in the woman's arms.
Xiuying glanced at Gu Yihan but ignored her.
Instead, he directly and confidently told Hu Shan, "Sister-in-law, don't forget to tell my cousin to come to my house after get off work to change my light bulb."
Hu Shan's eyes flashed with impatience, and she replied perfunctorily, "I know."
After saying that, he turned around, took Gu Yihan's arm, and greeted Zhao Ju, "Good morning, Officer Zhao!"
Seeing that Hu Shan naturally took Gu Yihan's arm, Zhao Ju knew that their relationship must be good.
He smiled and nodded, saying, "You guys chat. I'll be going now."
Gu Yihan pushed her bicycle alongside Hu Shan, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Is she Officer Cheng's cousin?"
Hu Shan didn't want to mention Xiuying, and said casually, "Yeah, they always go to Cheng Bo for every little thing at home, as if Cheng Bo is the man of their family."
"Oh, she's Aunt Cheng's daughter?"
Hu Shan turned her head and looked at Gu Yihan with a puzzled expression, not understanding why she suddenly became interested in Xiuying.
He nodded and said, "Yes."
A knowing glint flashed in Gu Yihan's eyes, and she chuckled, "She doesn't look alike at all with Secretary Cheng."
Hu Shan said, "Cheng Bo took after his father."
Gu Yihan feigned surprise and asked, "Really?"
"I saw that the child she was holding looked a lot like Officer Cheng. I thought Officer Cheng took after his mother!"
Upon hearing this, Hu Shan smiled and said, "How could that be? Cheng Bo looks exactly like his father, it's impossible..."
The rest of the words suddenly got stuck in my throat.
Hu Shan's pupils suddenly dilated, her face turned deathly pale, and her lips trembled uncontrollably.
I couldn't say a single word I wanted to say.
Gu Yihan pretended not to see it.
He thought to himself, "Finally, Hu Shan has discovered that Cheng Bo's relationship with his cousin is unusual."
If she fails to seize this opportunity presented to her, it can only prove that fate is against Hu Shan.
Gu Yihan parked her bicycle, and the two walked side by side in silence until they returned to the office.
noon
Gu Yihan carried the aluminum lunchbox to Hu Shan's desk and knocked on it.
"Sister Shan, dinner's ready."
"You're eating so soon?"
Hu Shan looked up at Gu Yihan, opened the drawer, and took out a lunchbox.
Zhang Limin looked at Hu Shan in surprise and said, "Xiao Shan, what's wrong with you? You've been absent-minded all morning."
Hu Shan forced a smile at Zhang Limin and casually lied, "It's nothing, I just had my period and my stomach hurts."
Zhang Limin didn't think much of it and nodded, saying, "Drinking some brown sugar water can relieve the pain."
The group headed towards the cafeteria.
Wang Guixiang walked up to Gu Yihan and whispered in her ear, "Are you very familiar with Zhao Ju?"
Gu Yihan glanced at her and said, "We're not familiar."
Upon hearing this, Wang Guixiang's eyes showed suspicion, and she blurted out, "We're not familiar with each other, so why did you come to the textile factory with her?"
"Who says we can't come to the textile factory together if we're not familiar with each other?" Gu Yihan asked in confusion.
"I thought you two were close, and I was wondering if I could sell her job to you!"
"She wants to sell her job?" Gu Yihan asked, puzzled.
Seeing that Gu Yihan didn't even know that Zhao Ju wanted to change jobs, Wang Guixiang believed that the two weren't close.
He replied dismissively, "I must have misheard you."
Seeing this, Gu Yihan didn't press the matter further, since it had nothing to do with her anyway.
After get off work
When Hu Shan returned home, she glanced at Cheng Weihong, who was feeding Jingjing egg custard.
He asked casually, "Wei Hong, is Xiu Ying's lover dead?"
Cheng Weihong was startled by Hu Shan's sudden question.
After realizing what had happened, she quickly explained, "Sister-in-law, I've never met my cousin's partner, so I don't know."
Hu Shan stared intently at Cheng Weihong, and when she saw that Cheng Weihong's forehead was starting to sweat with nervousness, she suddenly laughed.
Her voice was completely flat: "Look how scared you are. Your sister-in-law was just asking casually."
Cheng Weihong's heart pounded in her chest. She couldn't understand whether Hu Shan knew something or was just asking casually.
She glanced at the clock; her cousin hadn't returned by this time, so he'd probably gone to Xiuying's house.
For safety's sake, she had to go and warn her cousin.
"Sister-in-law, I suddenly remembered that we're out of salt. Could you watch Jingjing for a while while I go to the supply and marketing cooperative?"
After saying that, he stood up, walked over to Hu Shan, and handed Jingjing to her.
Jingjing blinked her beautiful eyes, looked at Hu Shan, and opened her arms, wanting a hug.
Hu Shan glanced at Jingjing's tender face and Cheng Weihong's anxious eyes, a hint of mockery flashing in her own!
