Lu Zhengting quickly raised his hand to touch the stubble that had sprouted on his chin. His hands were covered in calluses, so he didn't feel the prickliness, but his wife's delicate skin must have felt it.
"Okay, I'm going to take a shower now."
He poured a basin of cold water and started washing himself in the yard. Lin Qingyan brought him clean clothes and helped him wipe his back as well. After washing, he was only wearing a pair of shorts. Since he would have to take them off later anyway, why wear so many clothes?
After returning to the house, Lin Qingyan trimmed his hair, and soon, his messy and somewhat fluffy hair was transformed back into a neat and clean buzz cut.
Lu Zhengting took out a razor blade and shaved off his beard. Lin Qingyan pinched his chin and kissed his thin lips.
"Hmm, it doesn't hurt at all now. But you've lost so much weight."
"But I am naturally strong." He immediately showed off his muscles to his wife.
"Good, good, you're still as strong as before, but you need to take good care of yourself."
The man picked up his wife and said, "Honey, I've been holding back for over a month. It's time for me to let loose."
This release lasted for two hours. Lin Qingyan didn't notice that the man was tired. Anyway, she had only rested for one night and now she felt tired again.
Lu Zhengting stopped because he discovered that the condom he was wearing had leaked, and there were no new condoms at home.
He was quite disappointed: "Honey, we have to go to the hospital to pick up family planning supplies again."
"Then let's get another one. Should you go get it, or should I just get it myself?"
"I'll go." How could a young woman like my wife be so embarrassed to do something like this?
"Okay then, you can go with me when I go to work, or go when I'm about to get off work, and we can come back together."
"Okay. I have three days off this time, so let your man take good care of you."
Lin Qingyan leaned on his shoulder and tilted her head up to kiss his lips.
The fire within the man was instantly reignited, and he pressed her down onto the bed again. The next second, however, he suddenly realized that there were no condoms left, so he had no choice but to force himself to give up.
We tried a different approach.
But he forgot about the last time the condom had a hole.
In the afternoon, they went to the hospital together and ran into Dong Yue on the way.
Dong Yue deliberately avoided Lin Qingyan again. After seeing Lin Qingyan and Lu Zhengting, he quickly turned his head to the other side, pretending not to see them.
Seeing that he was ignoring her, Lin Qingyan did the same as Dong Yue.
Lu Zhengting, however, wanted to greet Dong Yue. He stopped the car and called out to Dong Yue, "Comrade Dong Yue."
Upon hearing the voice, Dong Yue knew he couldn't avoid it any longer, so he turned to look at Lu Zhengting and also saw Lin Qingyan.
He smiled at Lu Zhengting and said, "You're back. I have to get to training now, so I'll be going now."
Lu Zhengting paused for a moment, then said "okay".
After Dong Yue walked away, Lu Zhengting felt somewhat depressed.
In the past, Dong Yue would always take the initiative to talk to his wife whenever they met, and his wife seemed to enjoy being around him.
But this time he clearly noticed something was wrong.
Not only is Dong Yue avoiding his wife, but his wife doesn't even bother to speak to him when she sees him. What exactly happened?
"Wife, what happened between you and Dong Yue while I was away?"
Lin Qingyan sighed, "You'd better not know."
"Huh?" The more this happened, the more he wanted to know: "Wife, just tell me, otherwise I'll be very upset."
"Alright then. Because of the time you were away, some people spread rumors about us. They said some really nasty things. Later, the person who spread the rumors was caught. She was an actress in the cultural troupe, and she has now been discharged from the military."
Although the matter has been resolved, there may still be some repercussions, which is probably why Dong Yue is avoiding any appearance of impropriety.
"How could such a thing happen!" Lu Zhengting tightened his grip on the handlebars. "Wife, I'm so sorry you had to suffer like this. If I had known..."
"I knew you'd have to go on a mission eventually, even if I'd known. You can't disobey orders over something like this. I'm upright and have nothing to hide. I can handle this. As long as you trust me, I don't care what others say."
"Honey, thank you for your trust in me."
And you? Do you have any doubts about me?
"All I know is that my wife has been wronged. It's my fault for not protecting you."
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore, it's ruining your mood. Go buy some groceries when you get home, and I'll cook you something delicious tonight."
Lu Zhengting knew that his cooking skills were far inferior to his wife's.
"I'll prepare the ingredients first, and you can just cook it when you get home."
After they arrived at the hospital, Lu Zhengting first went to visit Feng Yidong in his ward and stayed there for a while before going to the family planning office to get condoms.
After he registered his name, the older woman suddenly gave him five boxes of condoms. He looked at her in disbelief.
The eldest sister said, "Of course we should take care of a combat hero who has just returned from the battlefield."
"Thanks."
He quickly put the condom in his pocket, turned around, and walked away.
On the surface, everything seemed calm, but inside, they were overjoyed.
Tonight, my wife and I will have a 300-round battle, and we won't even have to worry about running out of condoms.
Two days later, a commendation ceremony will be held in the military region.
As the main leader of this mission, Lu Zhengting also made great contributions on the battlefield and deserves to be commended. Lin Qingyan, as his family member, can also attend his commendation ceremony.
After the commendation ceremony, a celebratory banquet will be prepared in the canteen. They don't need to eat at home that night; they go directly to the military region's auditorium.
