"Honey, the main problem is that the place we're going to this time is quite far away, and it will take ten days to go round trip. There aren't many people in the team who know the way, and the journey is quite dangerous, so... only I can handle it."
Qin Zheng paused here and cautiously glanced at Ye Yun's expression.
Ye Yun asked calmly, "Where to?"
"West side."
"How much is West?"
"The border," Qin Zheng said.
Ye Yun: "..."
It really is far.
In this era of underdeveloped transportation, where people can only rely on their memory to remember directions, and the destination is in a dangerous area with poor security, probably very few people would be able to find the place and arrive safely.
Qin Zheng held Ye Yun's hand and gently rubbed it again and again.
He was afraid of upsetting Ye Yun.
He knew his actions were unfair to Ye Yun, but it was also his mission.
"Wife, don't worry, this is the last time I'll go out..." Before he could finish speaking, a small hand suddenly covered his mouth tightly.
Ye Yun's lips twitched.
Some things you can't say, because once you say them, it's over!
"Okay, I understand. But when you come back, tell your team that you'll get an extended leave. As for what happens after that, you can make your own choice."
Ye Yun said.
Actually, she also wanted Qin Zheng to talk to the team and see if he could be transferred to logistics as soon as possible.
But then I realized that was Qin Zheng's business.
She can't interfere too much.
Qin Zheng nodded, "Don't worry, honey. The team has assigned me several helpers this time. I'll just take them with me once, and then I'll hand over that line to them from now on."
"Can."
Ye Yun expressed her understanding and didn't say anything else. She patted the blanket on her body and said, "Then let's go to sleep."
Qin Zheng quickly responded.
Ye Yun told him to turn off the light, and he rolled off the kang (a heated brick bed), bent down and blew out the kerosene lamp, then went back onto the kang.
Ye Yun left a blanket for him and wrapped him up immediately after he got into bed.
It's gotten a bit colder lately. The weather in May can turn cold in an instant. The nights are quite chilly. The man only had to get off the bed for a few seconds before he felt the chill on his body. His exposed skin felt icy cold when it touched her.
Ye Yun rubbed her hands together, then gently placed them on the man's chest, bringing a warm sensation to her face.
Qin Zheng held her tightly with his strong arms, gently patted her back through the quilt, and whispered in her ear, "Sleep well, my wife."
Ye Yun was slightly taken aback.
She could still smell the pleasant scent of Qin Zheng's soap in her breath. After a two-second silence, she whispered, "Qin Zheng, are you sleepy?"
Qin Zheng remained silent.
Ye Yun couldn't help but wonder, could this man really be Liu Xiahui just because he said so?
She gently poked the man's chest with her hand, unconsciously drawing a circle, and called his name in a soft, gentle voice: "Qin Zheng..."
A small hand gently touches and teases the man's heart.
Unwittingly, sparks were ignited.
Qin Zheng's body instantly became incredibly hot, like a furnace radiating warmth in the cooling night, making people involuntarily press closer to him.
"Wife, don't stand so close to me..."
Qin Zheng's voice was filled with pain as he forcefully grasped Ye Yun's restless little hand on his chest.
Ye Yun pretended not to understand, "Huh?"
"I said, please don't get so close to me... it makes me uncomfortable..." Qin Zheng said in a low voice, his large hand unable to resist squeezing Ye Yun's soft, boneless hand.
Ye Yun hummed in response, as if she didn't understand his words, and asked, "Why do you feel uncomfortable?"
"I……"
Qin Zheng hesitated, then simply buried his head in the crook of her neck.
His massive body held her tightly, his heavy breathing whispering in her ear, tinged with a hint of coquetry: "Wife, were you doing this on purpose...?"
He dared not touch Ye Yun.
He worried that if something happened to him, his wife would have difficulty remarrying...
