Chapter 1269 What kind of expression is that?
On the other side, Fu Yancheng, who ran up from the conference room downstairs, was dumbfounded: "Why did the phone hang up?"
Guo Zhanrong, who followed him in, stubbornly insisted, "I didn't hang up. I told my sister-in-law, I'll go call her."
Before he could even finish saying "you," he was already at the table, slapping his forehead and saying, "Battalion Commander, I was wrong. I hung up the phone in my excitement."
As he spoke, his face was full of embarrassment.
Fu Yancheng glared at him angrily: "My wife finally called me. If I didn't have a grudge against you, I would suspect that you are taking revenge on me."
He then patted Guo Zhanrong on the shoulder and said, "Alright, it's no big deal. Get out of here now."
Guo Zhanrong was very uneasy: "What if my sister-in-law gets angry and doesn't call?"
He looked annoyed as he spoke.
Seeing his expression, Fu Yancheng said, "My wife isn't that petty."
He had barely finished speaking when the phone rang again. Fu Yancheng answered it incredibly quickly: "Wife."
The sound was so loud that Chu Xue quickly moved the receiver further away: "It's me."
Fu Yancheng's face was full of smiles: "Wife, how did things go? Do you want me to come pick you up?"
Chu Xue coughed lightly: "I was planning to go back tomorrow, but I have some things to take care of. I called to let you know that if I can't go back tomorrow afternoon, I'll have to wait until the day after tomorrow."
Fu Yancheng was a little disappointed when he heard that his wife might not be able to come home to the family compound tomorrow, but he still said, "Wife, can you tell me what's wrong? I'll see if I can find someone to help you."
He was speaking from the heart, and of course, his goal was to get his wife back to the family home as soon as possible.
The matter hadn't been resolved yet, and Chu Xue didn't want to discuss it in advance, especially since the call had been transferred and people might spread rumors about it: "No one else can help with this. I'll explain it to you in detail when we get home to the family compound."
After giving him various instructions, Fu Yancheng reluctantly hung up the phone.
Guo Zhanrong, who had already taken refuge in the outer corridor, heard the phone call end inside and poked his head in: "Fu Ying."
She had originally intended to tease her battalion commander, but seeing him standing there expressionless, the words caught in her throat: Could it be that her sister-in-law was angry with the battalion commander because of the phone call? What should we do?
Fu Yancheng was amused by his expression: "Alright, this is none of your business, stop overthinking."
Guo Zhanrong's "Do you think I believe you?" expression made Fu Yancheng's hands itch again.
Fu Yancheng was afraid the boy would feel guilty: "What kind of expression is that?"
Guo Zhanrong said frankly, "I'm just worried because you don't seem very happy."
Fu Yancheng scoffed, "You haven't even had a girlfriend, what do you know?"
Guo Zhanrong was displeased: "Battalion Commander, I just received a letter from home the day before yesterday. My sister said in the letter that she wanted to introduce her classmate to me as a wife. I have already written a reply. I will soon be a man with a girlfriend."
Fu Yancheng rolled his eyes at him: "You should save your breath if you're not sure about something."
Guo Zhanrong initially wanted to object, but then he thought about it and realized that he would be in an awkward situation if the girl didn't agree.
He coughed lightly and quickly changed the subject, saying, "Then why did you seem unhappy just now?"
Fu Yancheng reached out and slapped him: "Which eye of yours saw that I was unhappy? I was just worried about my wife."
Guo Zhanrong couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Battalion Commander, you've become so fussy now that you're married. Your wife is a grown woman, what's there to worry about?"
Chu Xue had previously told him not to announce her pregnancy unless absolutely necessary, so he had to keep quiet about it.
