Chapter 119: A Short Separation Is Better Than a New Marriage (1)
inside the house.
Lu Yuanbao sat on a small stool, looking up in anticipation. Chu Yue had just walked into the room a few minutes ago.
When Chu Yue walked out of the room again, she had a square cardboard box in her hand and placed it in front of Lu Yuanbao.
Lu Yuanbao stared at the cardboard box in Chu Yue's hand with his dark eyes, his gaze moved along with it, his face full of excitement.
After looking at it for a while, he looked up and asked Chu Yue, "This is the gift. Can I open it?"
"Of course, it belongs to you now." Chu Yue said gently.
Lu Yuanbao smiled shyly, his eyes curved. The cold and precocious child in the past now showed the liveliness that belonged to his age.
He dragged the cardboard box in front of him, carefully reached out, and slowly opened it——
Inside the cardboard box is a yellow, furry ball. (Picture)
Chirp, chirp, chirp!
It's a chick!
It’s only the size of a fist, a real little chick!
The chicks have very fluffy and soft feathers. The color of the feathers is different from that of adult hens. It is a very light yellow, just like the yolk of a boiled egg.
This is a new and improved breed of white-feathered broiler chicken.
Chu Yue made an appointment with Song Dashun, asking him to come to the military compound in three days to pick up the new breed of chicks, which she took out from her personal space.
While preparing the chicks, Chu Yue thought that Lu Yuanbao would definitely like these cute, furry little chicks.
Lu Yuanbao doesn’t like to talk on weekdays and likes to go out and play, especially during the past few days of separation. It would be so lonely for him to be left alone at home. It would be great if he had a pet to keep him company.
After some thought, Chu Yue prepared this special gift.
Obviously, Lu Yuanbao likes it very much.
He grabbed the cardboard box, stretched his neck, almost buried his head in it, and looked at it carefully.
The chubby little chicks kept spinning in circles in the cardboard box, making chirping sounds.
Chu Yue reminded, "Yuanbao, you can reach out and touch it."
After hearing this, Lu Yuanbao reached out and gently touched the little chicken.
So soft!
Warm!
Lu Yuanbao's fingertips felt like they were sinking into soft and fluffy cotton, touching the body temperature of the little chick.
He touched it once, but couldn't help it and touched it a second time, then a third time, and a fourth time...
Then, he carefully picked up the chick with both hands.
The little chick stepped on Lu Yuanbao's palm, and its little yellow pointed beak chirped even more happily, chirping non-stop.
Lu Yuanbao couldn't help but smile happily, and asked Chu Yue again and again, "Is this really a gift for me?"
"Of course. The chick is still a child, just like you. You have to take care of its food and water. You can grow up together."
"Can I bring it into the room and sleep with me?"
"Sure. But you can't get on the bed. You can make a little nest for the chicks."
"Okay, I'll remember that!"
Lu Yuanbao gently touched the chick's feathers and said excitedly, "It's really so small..."
Wasn’t Lu Yuanbao very small in the past?
This lonely little chicken seemed to see himself.
Just as Lu Yuanbao was immersed in the cute appearance of the little chicken, there was a knock on the door, "Yuanbao, Yuanbao, Yuanbao...dong dong dong——"
Lu Yuanbao hurriedly said, "It's Uncle Song Qi."
Chu Yue said, "You play with the little chicken in the house, I'll go out and open the door."
Chu Yue walked out quickly.
As soon as you open the door.
"Yuanbao, dinner is here. I added a fried egg for you today—" After Song Qi saw who opened the door, his cheerful and cheerful voice suddenly stopped, and was replaced by a startled surprise, "Sister-in-law!"
Xu Feng's name for Chu Yue spread in the army, and Song Qi and the others followed suit, calling Chu Yue "sister-in-law" in private.
"Sister-in-law, you're back?! That's great! Captain Lu would definitely be very happy if he knew you were back."
Chu Yue looked at Song Qi with a familiar and friendly feeling. She took the lunch box from his hand and said, "Have you been delivering lunch to Yuanbao these days?"
"I haven't delivered it for a few days. If Captain Lu is not busy, he will cook for himself. He will only let me deliver food when he is too busy to work overtime and can't come back."
"Thanks a lot."
"Sister-in-law, it's not hard! This is what I should do." Song Qi finished delivering the meal and said hurriedly, "I'll go back and tell Captain Lu that you're back and ask him to go home early!"
Before Chu Yue could ask Song Qi to come into the house to drink some water, Song Qi ran away excitedly.
Chu Yue shook her head and walked into the house with the heavy lunch box in her hand. She saw Lu Yuanbao put the cardboard box on the ground, put some rice grains in his palm, and put it to the chick's mouth.
Chirp chirp!
The little chicken pecked at Lu Yuanbao's fingers with its little beak and ate the millet grains. Lu Yuanbao was extremely happy!
That evening.
It seemed that Song Qi's message really worked. Lu Zhanlin did not come back at night. When Chu Yue and Lu Yuanbao had just finished dinner, the tall man walked into the house.
Lu Zhanlin stared at Chu Yue's figure with his dark eyes, his eyes shining, "You're back."
Chu Yue looked up when she heard the voice. Her pretty face was fair and soft. She smiled at Lu Zhanlin and said, "You came back so early today. Have you finished your work in the army?"
"Yeah, I'm done."
Lu Zhanlin walked into the house step by step, his eyes glued to Chu Yue, with an indescribable burning passion.
Lu Yuanbao was completely unaware of this, and only Chu Yue, who was being watched, could feel it.
Lu Zhanlin's eyes looked like he wanted to eat someone.
I think they separated just a few days after becoming a real couple. The man had just started eating meat and had not yet had time to have a second meal. It is easy to imagine how painful it was for his wife to be away for such a long time.
They say a short absence is better than a new marriage, and that’s exactly what it means.
Lu Zhanlin is not a man who speaks sweet words or confides in others. His deep longing for Chu Yue is hidden in his eyes, so strong that it cannot be dissolved.
Chu Yue thought she had experienced many ups and downs, but under Lu Zhanlin's gaze, her whole body felt hot and her heartbeat was out of control.
Overnight.
The whole room was silent, and no one was talking.
Lu Yuanbao finished the last few mouthfuls of rice in his small bowl, looked up at Chu Yue, and then at Lu Zhanlin. It was strange that these two adults were not moving.
Lu Yuanbao tilted his head in confusion and asked Chu Yue, "Mom, are you hot? Why are you blushing?"
Chu Yue wanted to cover Lu Yuanbao's mouth directly. This child is usually silent, why is he talking so much at this time?
