Wen Qiao knew when Shen Jichuan would be returning, and she was looking forward to her husband's return, so she couldn't sleep at night.
She took a nap after dinner in the evening while putting the child to sleep.
I woke up in the middle of the night.
She had just woken up when she suddenly heard a siren outside the door. She immediately got up, grabbed a flashlight, and went outside.
I happened to overhear Shen Jichuan talking to someone.
"Go to the guesthouse to rest. You don't need to leave the Northwest. Wait for my arrangements."
The man said yes.
Then she started the car and drove away. Wang Gang, who lived next door, came out even earlier than Wen Qiao.
When Wen Qiao walked to the door with a flashlight, Wang Gang had already come out. Seeing Shen Jichuan, he asked him with concern.
"Jichuan, you're back? Why did you rush back so late at night? There's no need to be in such a hurry."
Shen Jichuan casually made up an excuse: "I'm worried about my wife and children at home."
Upon hearing this, Wang Gang immediately chuckled.
"I knew it! Someone as family-oriented as you, how could you not miss your wife and kids?"
"Go home quickly. I'm worried that something might have happened to you coming back at this time. I don't think the person who brought you here is from the military."
It must be said that Political Commissar Wang has a good eye.
Shen Jichuan said, "He's someone I met in Beicheng, a retired soldier who drives for me."
Wang Gang understood.
He said that this Deputy Division Commander Shen from Beicheng must come from an extraordinary family. Look, his family even has a private car and a private driver.
Seeing that Shen Jichuan was alright, Wang Gang urged him to go home quickly.
She also said, "Your wife Wen Qiao is waiting to pick you up at the door."
Shen Jichuan knew that Wen Qiao had come out.
Just as he was talking to Wang Gang, Wen Qiao was standing at the door. She stood quietly and obediently, not disturbing his conversation with Wang Gang at all.
As Wang Gang walked away, Shen Jichuan turned around and met Wen Qiao's gentle gaze.
She chuckled, "You're back. Come inside."
"It's getting cold in the Northwest now. A few days ago, Sister Li asked me if I should buy coal in advance."
Shen Jichuan didn't speak. It wasn't that he didn't want to speak, but rather that he didn't know how to speak.
He simply gave a faint "hmm".
Wen Qiao noticed that there were two boxes next to him, one large and one small.
She knew the large item belonged to Shen Jichuan.
The younger one didn't know what was inside either.
Wen Qiao instinctively wanted to help him carry his things, so she walked over to Shen Jichuan's side, didn't ask any questions, and went straight to carry them.
This time, it really didn't come up.
"What's in here? It's so heavy."
Shen Jichuan bent down, carrying a box in each hand, and said to Wen Qiao, "Let's go back inside and open it for you to see."
"Lock the door."
Wen Qiao nodded and went to lock the door, while Shen Jichuan carried the things back into the house.
Wen Qiao always felt that their feelings had faded because they had been separated for several months.
Why was Shen Jichuan so cold and indifferent to her, showing no warmth whatsoever between husband and wife?
She had been so looking forward to her husband's return, but when he came back, she was met with such coldness. Wen Qiao felt a sense of disappointment, but she truly loved Shen Jichuan now.
When you like someone, you can't help but find all sorts of reasons to like them.
She thought that Shen Jichuan must be too tired from his missions.
Or perhaps they encountered some difficult problem that they couldn't solve.
Men and women are different.
