“Yes, we also came back from outside and were planning to have dinner. Have you eaten yet?” Dong Qingqing came out with bowls and chopsticks, then bent down and patted Zhou Jianxin’s head, and said to her, “Xinxin, quickly call them uncle and aunt.”
After listening to her new mother's words, Zhou Jianxin came out from behind her and walked to the door.
Her eyes widened for a moment, and no one knew what she was thinking.
"Does it hurt, Auntie?" she asked softly.
Lin Qiyue was surprised; every time she saw her, she would run far away.
"Auntie is fine. How about you? Are you feeling better now?" Lin Qiyue's voice softened.
She is innocent to the children.
Zhou Jianxin shook her head and said, "I'm fine, thank you uncle, thank you aunt."
She was already eight years old, and she understood many things. Her mother didn't like her, and everyone knew that she was her mother's bargaining chip. After her father passed away, she would be nothing but her mother's burden.
"You're welcome. As long as you're alright, that's all that matters." Lin Qiyue really wanted to touch the child, but her hands weren't able to reach him.
"Come in and have dinner with us," Zhou Qishan invited the couple to join him for dinner.
Lan Yuchu said, "We've already eaten, we won't eat anymore."
"We had a meal at my cousin's house in the city before we came back. You guys go ahead and eat, we won't bother you any longer," Lin Qiyue added.
"Alright then, is your hand feeling better, sister?" They felt grateful, but also a little guilty, thinking about how Lin Qiyue had injured her hand while searching for her child.
Lin Qiyue smiled and said, "Sister Dong, I'm fine. I've already changed the dressing today, and I'll change it again tomorrow afternoon and I'll be fine."
"Alright, if you need any help, just let us know."
Lin Qiyue didn't stand on ceremony and quickly agreed with a smile.
I didn't want to disturb their family's happy dinner.
Back home, Lan Yuchu poured Lin Qiyue a glass of water and fed it to her.
"Drink slowly~" I thought to myself, what if she chokes while drinking so fast?
The water Lin Qiyue drank had a slightly honey-like sweetness.
"Honey, is this honey?"
"Yes, this is honey from Sister Dong's hometown that she brought over last time. I've kept it in the refrigerator and forgot to tell you." Lan Yuchu looked at Lin Qiyue helplessly and said, "Have you never even opened the refrigerator?"
"Hehe~" Lin Qiyue felt a little guilty.
The weather has been very cold lately, and sometimes she doesn't feel like cooking, but she likes to experiment with pastries. Perhaps it's something on her face, but she keeps going back and forth between the second bedroom and the kitchen.
The refrigerator was indeed opened, but she had no idea what was inside.
Lan Yuchu had nothing but praise for his wife.
"Rest for a bit, then we'll take a shower and go back to our room to lie down. I have to go to work tomorrow. I'll bring you breakfast, feed you, and then you can sleep. I'll get you lunch and eat with you." He's the deputy regimental commander. There's no regimental commander or political instructor in the regiment, so he has to take on multiple roles all by himself, which is unavoidable.
"I don't want to eat breakfast." Lin Qiyue can actually sleep for a long time in winter, and she really doesn't want to get up for breakfast.
When Lan Yu first heard Lin Qiyue say she wasn't going to eat, she almost became serious, but then she thought she couldn't treat Lin Qiyue like that.
Gently stroking Lin Qiyue, he said, "No, skipping breakfast is bad for your stomach."
Seeing that her refusal was ineffective, Lin Qiyue could only choose to remain silent.
Lan Yuchu held Lin Qiyue in his arms, inhaling her unique scent.
He felt a moment of relief and was truly relaxed.
Quiet down and enjoy the happy moment with your wife by your side.
“Honey, I really love the days we spend together. I can hear your voice every day, and I need your help, comfort you, and do things for you. It makes me feel like you depend on me as your husband. But do you ever feel wronged?” He could sense that Lin Qiyue was a stubborn person.
She remembers everyone who treats her well, and she also keeps the unkindness in her heart.
However, time and again, she chose to avoid his sharp edge for his sake, Lan Yuchu.
He felt that Lin Qiyue was a very weak person who needed her husband's protection.
"I already said I'm not wronged. Do you think I'm lazy and that's why you're saying this?" Lin Qiyue pouted and asked Lan Yuchu, "You're saying this because you don't want to serve me."
Lan Yuchu gently stroked her head with his warm, large hand and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I just..."
But the thought that she was very clear-headed when she was discussing business with Wei Yuelan today made him very clear that his little wife is a very capable and strong woman.
I think about it and realize that my wife acts all weak and vulnerable in front of him every day because it's for his pride.
Lin Qiyue looked up and asked again, "But what?"
"But seeing how amazing you are, I feel it's not good to keep you by my side." He is a soldier, and that identity would greatly limit her life.
There are many things she is completely unable to do.
Upon hearing this, Lin Qiyue became anxious and asked worriedly, "Are you going to divorce me?"
Lan Yuchu: "..."
What is she thinking?
"Lan Yuchu, do you really not love me anymore?" Lin Qiyue asked anxiously, tears welling up in her eyes.
Lan Yuchu said, "What are you thinking about!"
This young wife of his, what is she thinking all day long? It makes him so helpless.
The two of them were not on the same wavelength.
Tears welled up in Lin Qiyue's eyes as she softly asked, "Husband~ what are you thinking? Tell me, is it possible that you're not?"
Lan Yuchu was burdened with many worries, which made her feel very anxious.
She couldn't understand the man's eyes, especially.
Does the man think she's lazy, or that he doesn't love her anymore?
“Honey, I feel like I’m not good enough for you. Today, when I saw you talking to Wei Yuelan about business, you were very clear-headed and decisive. You earn most of the family’s income while living with me. I feel like I can’t give you happiness, and I’m always making you suffer and hurt.”
Lan Yuchu also understood that he couldn't protect Lin Qiyue at all.
But he couldn't bear to let go.
I feel so selfish.
Lin Qiyue looked up at him, and was stunned for a moment.
Then I sat next to him, leaned against him, and looked up at him.
That distant, uncertain look in his eyes!
Hehe~
Lin Qiyue found it increasingly amusing the more she thought about it.
"What are you laughing at?" Lan Yu asked, frowning when he saw Lin Qiyue laughing.
Lin Qiyue said, "Then you should retire and learn business from me."
Lan Yuchu had never thought about this question before. He stared at Lin Qiyue, unsure how to answer her.
"Why are you hesitating?" Lin Qiyue asked.
"I have never thought about retiring. This is the most sacred profession I have ever pursued, the dream I have pursued all my life, and my honor."
Lan Yuchu will not retire, but he is afraid that Lin Qiyue will make him retire.
