Xi Mufan pursed his lips. He didn't know what might happen to He Yanzhi, but given Guan Wenru's current state, she was most likely pregnant.
He looked at Baiyun with a serious expression, "Your sister is always so impulsive. Baiyun, if you see her at the factory tomorrow, remind her not to jump around like that, she might be pregnant."
"What?!" Bai Yun's eyes widened instantly, and she excitedly covered her mouth. "Really...really?"
Xi Mufan nodded. "It's pretty much true. Remember to remind her tomorrow, or if you see Commander He tomorrow, tell him to take your sister to the county hospital for a thorough check-up. The facilities there are better."
"Oh my god!!" Bai Yun excitedly spun around on the spot. "This is great! I'm going to be an aunt! No way, I'm going to go there right now. I can get into the family compound, and I'll tell them right now."
As she spoke, she excitedly tried to run away.
Xi Mufan quickly grabbed her arm. "Let's skip it today. Judging from her expression, something must have happened. Let's not bother her today."
After he said that, Baiyun calmed down.
Her sister looked quite serious just now, as if something terrible had happened…
...
On the other side, Guan Wenru got into the passenger seat of the Jeep, and He Yanzhi reached out and ruffled her hair. "How did you know I was here to pick you up?"
"I knew it." Guan Wenru knew perfectly well what had happened, but she still pretended to be calm and waited for He Yanzhi to bring it up with her.
He Yanzhi reached out and clasped her fingers together.
He held the steering wheel with one hand and drove not towards the family compound, but towards a mountain he frequented.
The mountain is low; you can drive up it by winding around.
Upon reaching the mountaintop, He Yanzhi got out of the car first. He opened the car door for Guan Wenru, took her hand, and walked a short distance away, gazing at the distant, layered mountains.
A moment later, He Yanzhi turned his head to look at Guan Wenru's profile, which was being blown by the wind, and suddenly reached out to gently cup her face. "Wenru..."
"Hmm?" Guan Wenru suppressed her emotions.
He Yanzhi did not answer, but leaned down and kissed her deeply.
The kiss carried the coolness of the mountain breeze and an indescribable heaviness, lasting for quite a while before they parted.
He still held her face in his hands, his thumbs stroking her cheeks, his voice so deep it was almost carried away by the wind, "We... leave tonight."
Just as I expected!
Guan Wenru's heart tightened, but her eyes remained calm, even carrying a hint of knowing she had already anticipated this. "A mission?"
"Yes, we're going to the front lines. I'll be leading the first batch from the division."
Guan Wenru took a deep breath. Without surprise or crying, she simply stretched out her arms and hugged his strong waist tightly, burying her face in the front of his military uniform, which was covered in dust and sweat.
In her previous life, He Yanzhi was among the first group to lead the team at this time, so she wasn't surprised at all!
However, her voice still choked with emotion, "Then you have to promise me you'll come back safely. I'll be waiting for you at home!"
He Yanzhi's body trembled slightly, and he pulled her even tighter into his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head:
"I promise you! You have to promise me too, take good care of yourself, put yourself first, and if anything happens, go to the commander. Also... don't work too hard at the factory, just do your best."
Guan Wenru nestled in his arms, "Okay!"
He Yanzhi tightened his arms around her, as if trying to embed her into his very bones. He had thought... that after he finished speaking, she would cry and make a scene...
But she was so sensible that she didn't worry him.
The two embraced in the wind atop the mountain, remaining silent for a long time.
...
That afternoon, the two returned home. Guan Wanxin seemed to already know what had happened. She went over and patted He Yanzhi on the shoulder, saying, "Promise Grandma you'll come back safely!"
He Yanzhi saluted, "Yes!"
Guan Wanxin saw that her granddaughter's eyes were slightly red, and she felt sad too. She took the initiative to say:
“I heard from your commander that you are leaving tonight. He asked the logistics department to prepare food so that everyone can eat together in the canteen. Chunlan and the others are also helping out in the logistics department. I’m going to check on them too.”
Guan Wenru put down her bag. "Grandma, let's go together."
"No need, no need. You help Yanzhi pack her luggage, and the two of you can have a good talk. You can go over tonight."
He Yanzhi knew that Grandma Guan wanted to create an opportunity for him and Wenru to be alone.
He pursed his lips and said, "Thank you, Grandma."
Guan Wanxin chuckled, "Alright, you guys pack your things."
After saying that, she left first and closed the door behind her.
Guan Wenru was already feeling down, but her grandmother's antics made her feel... awkward!
Before she could say anything, He Yanzhi suddenly turned around and closed the door.
He turned around abruptly, pinned Guan Wenru against the door, and pressed a hot, irresistible kiss down on her, instantly stealing her breath.
Heavy breathing...
The kiss was deep and urgent, as if it were pouring out all the reluctance to part and all the unspoken words.
He Yanzhi tightened his arms around her waist, half-carrying and half-pushing her as they staggered towards the bedroom…
Overwhelmed by his intense onslaught, Guan Wenru was utterly powerless, able only to tilt her head back and endure it, her hands climbing up his broad, taut back, her fingertips unconsciously digging into the fabric of his military uniform, "Speaking of..."
At times like this, she whispered his name... It was incredibly powerful, making his heart race!
The two stumbled into the bedroom.
He Yanzhi kicked the door shut, turned around and pushed her down onto the bed, his kisses becoming deeper and more passionate, with an urgent, conquering intensity.
The sounds of clothes rubbing, belt buckles clanging, and rapid, intertwined breathing instantly filled the small space.
He Yanzhi's lips lingered on the side of her neck and behind her ear, leaving a burning mark.
Guan Wenru's consciousness was stirred into a daze by him, but her body responded eagerly. Each touch ignited a deeper flame, and sweat soaked her forehead and the clothes that clung to her body.
The first time they were intimate, it was as intense as a storm, the most direct and profound expression of their feelings on the eve of parting.
Sweating profusely and panting, He Yanzhi's strong arms still held her tightly, refusing to loosen their grip even slightly.
After a brief moment of tenderness, Guan Wenru suddenly moved.
She turned over and, under He Yanzhi's slightly surprised gaze, took the initiative and resolutely took the top position for the first time.
Her eyes were hazy yet filled with unprecedented courage and passion. She lowered her head and kissed his sweaty chest, then his Adam's apple, and finally her lips.
Her initiative was like a spark thrown into dry tinder, instantly igniting an even more turbulent wave in He Yanzhi's heart.
He let out a low growl, grabbed her waist, and flipped her over, turning the passive situation into a more ferocious and proactive one.
This time, it's a raging fire, a passionate entanglement, and the deepest imprint of each other's souls.
...
After an unknown amount of time, the fierce storm finally subsided.
Exhausted, the two embraced, their sweat mingling, their rapid heartbeats echoing like drums in the quiet room.
He Yanzhi's arms remained tightly wrapped around her, his chin resting on the top of her head, and he remained silent for a long time...
Guan Wenru was exhausted and her lower abdomen ached slightly, but she didn't say anything so as not to worry He Yanzhi.
