Chapter 204: Smoke of Gunfire

Jiang Xia turned around and saw a heroic female comrade in military uniform running towards them hurriedly.

Zhang Rui followed her closely, gave Zhou Chenglei an apologetic look, and then looked at Jiang Xia a little nervously.

Zeng Yuan ran to Zhou Chenglei. Jiang Xia felt that she wanted to pounce on Zhou Chenglei, but Zhou Chenglei pulled her back a step, and she stopped abruptly.

Zhou Chenglei expressionlessly pulled Jiang Xia's hand and took a step back.

Zeng Yuan paused, looked at the two people holding hands, her nose sore, and her eyes reddened: "Zhou Chenglei, you left without saying goodbye."

Zhou Chenglei glanced at her and said calmly without any expression on his face: "It seems that there is no need for me to say goodbye to you."

After saying that, he looked at Zhang Rui: "Letter of introduction."

Zhang Rui quickly handed the letter of introduction to Zhou Chenglei.

Seeing that the other person's eyes were red, Jiang Xia subconsciously looked at Zhou Chenglei.

Zhou Chenglei took the letter of introduction and noticed Jiang Xia looking at him. He lowered his head and looked at her: "Go and pay."

After saying that, he took her away to pay the bill without even looking at Zeng Yuan, as if he didn't know her.

Jiang Xia suppressed his curiosity and went to pay for the motorcycle first.

Zeng Yuan took a look at the intimate figures of the two and turned her head away angrily.

Zhang Rui whispered to her, "Now that you've met the captain, are you ready to go?"

He still had something to ask the leader! She ruined it again!

Zeng Yuan glared at him: "Why should I leave?"

Zhang Rui: “…”

"If you don't leave, what are you doing here?"

"What do you care about me?"

Zhang Rui: “…”

It's so confusing! I've never seen such a difficult woman.

The leader has never been kind to her, but she has been able to stick to him as if she had never seen him for so many years! Now that the leader is married, what else does she want?

If they didn't grow up in the same courtyard and the two families were old friends, he wouldn't bother to pay attention to her! Zeng Yuan ignored Zhang Rui. Her eyes fell on Jiang Xia, and she looked her up and down.

Zhou Chenglei likes this?

No, Zhou Chenglei married her just to repay a favor. He did not refuse because the person proposing marriage was his old leader and the person being proposed marriage was the daughter of Commander Jiang, who had helped and supported him when he first joined the army.

I was a step too slow, a step too slow in expressing my feelings, a step too slow in proposing marriage!

Apart from her whiter skin, how could this woman compare to me? How could she be worthy of Zhou Chenglei?

He is short, only as tall as Zhou Chenglei's shoulders. His background is not as good as mine, and he has a low level of education, with only a high school education!

At first glance, she was the kind of woman who had no fighting power at all and would only hide behind a man and cry when encountering problems! She was not worthy of Zhou Chenglei! Jiang Xia took the letter of introduction from Zhou Chenglei, took out 780 yuan and a ticket from her bag and handed them to the salesperson: "780 yuan, please count it."

Salesperson: "Seven hundred and ninety. The motorcycle has already been filled with gas, so the gas fee is an additional ten yuan."

Jiang Xia took out another ten yuan from his bag.

Seeing that Jiang Xia hadn't fastened her bag, Zhou Chenglei reached out to tidy up her bag.

The salesperson carefully read the letter of introduction, and only took the money and counted it after confirming no problems. Then he began to issue them receipts and reminded them to take the receipts to register their vehicles.

After that, he asked them if they had a driver's license. Zhou Chenglei said yes, and he didn't say anything else. He gestured for them to try the motorcycle and they could drive away if there were no problems.

Zhou Chenglei started the motorcycle and tested it by pumping gas. When he found no problem, he pushed the motorcycle out and said to Jiang Xia, "Let's go for a spin and give it a try."

Zeng Yuan stopped in front of the motorcycle and couldn't help but ask, "Alei, why don't you introduce me?"

Zhou Chenglei: "My love, Jiang Xia."

Then he said to Jiang Xia, "This is my former military doctor, Doctor Zeng."

Zeng Yuan is about 1.7 meters tall. She held out her hand to Jiang Xia, who is 1.65 meters tall, and said, "Hello, Zeng Yuan. I graduated from the Military Medical University and am now the attending physician in the military hospital. I take care of Lei every time he gets injured."

Jiang Xia smiled, stretched out his hand and shook hands with her.

Zeng Yuan clasped her hands together and exerted force without leaving any trace.

Zhou Chenglei glanced at Zeng Yuan coldly.

Zeng Yuan wanted to pull her hand back, but she couldn't!

Jiang Xia smiled: "Hello, Doctor Zeng. Thank you for helping my wife heal. Your duty as a doctor is really great. You cure diseases and save lives, and you care for patients selflessly."

Jiang Xia let go of his hand after he finished speaking.

Zeng Yuan's entire palm was stiff, numb, painful, and the numbness kept spreading upwards.

Zhang Rui glanced at Jiang Xia.

My sister-in-law is awesome!

Not only is he extremely strong, he's also a great talker.

He downplayed the care Zeng Yuan mentioned and said it was just the doctor's responsibility.

Yes, treatment is treatment, what do you mean by care? It's so ambiguous!

Taking care of patients and saving lives are just the doctor's duties!

Zeng Yuan was angry and embarrassed. She took out a handkerchief, wiped her hand that Jiang Xia had held, and then threw the handkerchief to Zhang Rui: "Please help me throw it away."

Zhou Chenglei's face turned cold and he took a look.

Zhang Rui only felt the smoke rising! Damn, this handkerchief is simply a time bomb!

Is he lost? Jiang Xia returned to Zhou Chenglei and said, "Let's go! Let's try the motorcycle."

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Zhou Chenglei parked the motorcycle, held Jiang Xia's wrist, took her out, then turned on the kettle and used the water in the kettle to carefully rinse her hand, which she had just shaken hands with Zeng Yuan. After that, he took out a handkerchief to help her wipe the water droplets on her hand.

Zeng Yuan followed out: "..."

Almost cried! After helping Jiang Xia dry his hands, Zhou Chenglei dried his own hands and said to Jiang Xia, "Wait here for me. I'll push the motorcycle out."

Jiang Xia nodded.

Zeng Yuan waited for Zhou Chenglei to go in, then came to Jiang Xia and looked down at her and said with a smile: "Comrade Jiang, what kind of work are you doing now?"

Seeing that the sun was strong, Jiang Xia took out sleeves from his bag and put them on to protect himself from the sun while saying, "I'll farm at home."

"Puff..." Zhang Rui quickly covered his mouth.

My sister-in-law is such a good talker!

Farming? Absolutely! Zeng Yuan moved her lips. I didn't expect her to say that. She obviously didn't have a job and was supported by a man, but she said she was farming at home! She wanted to make a sarcastic remark, but she couldn't find the words. She couldn't satirize the peasant class.

Zeng Yuan glanced at Jiang Xia.

I didn't expect he was such a sharp-tongued person!

She pretended to be weak and beautiful in front of Zhou Chenglei. Did Zhou Chenglei know that she was like this? Zhou Chenglei pushed the motorcycle out and parked it.

The sun is out and it's a bit hot. Jiang Xia is afraid of the sun.

He took off the straw hat hanging on his back, raised his hand to push the loose hair on Jiang Xia's forehead, put the straw hat on Jiang Xia, tied the rope, and asked, "Are you thirsty? Do you want some water?"

Jiang Xia shook his head: "No need."

Zeng Yuan: “…”

She had never seen Zhou Chenglei so gentle.

Zhou Chenglei got on the motorcycle, sat down, stepped on the ignition, and then signaled Jiang Xia to get on.

When Jiang Xia got into the car, Zhou Chenglei turned around and helped her out of habit.

Zeng Yuan was stunned for a moment. She thought he was aloof by nature and was cold to everyone, especially women. He always had a stern face and kept his distance.

Turns out it’s not!

He can also be gentle and considerate.

Zhou Chenglei said to Zhang Rui: "Your sister-in-law and I will leave first."

Zhang Rui still had something to say to Zhou Chenglei, but now was not the right time. He nodded and waved to Jiang Xia: "Okay, sister-in-law, see you another day!"

Jiang Xia smiled and waved to Zhang Rui: "See you another day."

Zhou Chenglei was about to drive, and said to Jiang Xia, "Hold me and drive."

Zeng Yuan: “…”

Jiang Xia put his arm around his waist.

Zhou Chenglei took Jiang Xia away on a motorcycle.

Zeng Yuan looked at their receding figures, feeling a little unwilling: "She is not worthy of the leader!"

Zhang Rui returned the hot handkerchief to her: "I don't know whether she is worthy of you or not, I only know that the head of the group doesn't like you."

Zeng Yuan: “…”
