Fortunately, the spicy snack wasn't poisonous, and Chi Heng reacted quickly enough.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be as simple as just a broken leg.
It hurt a bit, but as Chris was talking, she suddenly laughed.
She finally realized something.
That is, she seems to hold some weight in Chi Heng's heart.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be in such a hurry.
Chris was completely dazed the moment she rolled down the slope.
But there was one thing she was certain of.
When Chi Heng rushed down to pull her up, his hands were shaking.
On the way to the hospital, he held her hand tightly the whole time, never letting go for a moment.
As the two were talking, there was a soft knock on the door.
Chi Heng has returned.
He was the one who called Jiang Si just now.
Seeing that he was carrying a thermos, Jiang Si wisely made an excuse to leave early.
When we got home, the two little ones were holding the receiver and calling for their dad.
The baby is almost 11 months old now, and his voice is exceptionally clear when he calls out "daddy" and "mommy".
The only problem is that the way they address grandpa and grandma isn't quite standard yet.
However, the family is already very satisfied with this.
Seeing Jiang Si return, Huo's mother happily carried the two little ones into the stroller.
"It's Xiaozhou on the phone. You two chat first. I'll take Suisui and Zhaozhao outside for a walk and some fresh air."
Jiang Si nodded and took the receiver.
The earpiece casing felt a bit hot to the touch, which meant they had been talking for quite a while.
"Why have we been talking for so long today?" Jiang Si asked, somewhat surprised.
Upon hearing his wife's voice, Huo Tingzhou's smile widened noticeably.
"We just finished the second phase of training. Everyone performed well and achieved ideal results, so we were given a few hours off to relax."
This was the first time Jiang Si had ever heard of a holiday that only lasted a few hours.
This shows how precious this holiday is.
"How have you been lately? Is everything alright?" Huo Tingzhou asked with concern.
Seeing that he had plenty of time, Jiang Si teased him, "Guess?"
Judging from her tone, Huo Tingzhou knew that she should be doing well recently.
My anxiety has finally subsided considerably.
The call was repeatedly transferred, and Jiang Si couldn't go into details about how the mole had been exposed.
Based on the current progress, the main structure of the building should be completed smoothly before the end of the year.
She also said that once she's done with this busy period, she'll take a good rest.
"Okay, when we take a vacation at the end of the year, I'll take you to a hot spring."
I promised to take her there before, but I kept putting it off for various reasons. I'm determined to do it this year.
Jiang Si smiled and replied, "Just recently, Chris gave me a swimsuit."
The style is not the long-sleeved jumpsuit commonly seen in this era.
In short, it's very hot.
This is obviously not suitable for public beaches, but it should be fine for private places like hot springs.
"She gave it to you?"
Huo Tingzhou vaguely remembered this Chris, but he didn't know when her relationship with his wife had become so good.
They're so good to me that they're giving me intimate apparel!
Seeing his curiosity, Jiang Si briefly explained how the two became friends after a fight.
She had wanted to bring this up on the phone last time.
But in a call that only lasts a few minutes, you wouldn't even think of that.
"I just went to the hospital to see her." After thinking for a moment, Jiang Si also briefly mentioned the matter between her and Chi Heng.
They didn't mention anything about their collaboration, only that they are currently in a romantic relationship.
"They're together?"
Huo Tingzhou was quite surprised, or more accurately, delighted, by this.
There's always this person by my wife's side.
It would be a lie to say there was no pressure.
If the other party has ill intentions or is of bad character, he can still take action without any scruples.
However, Chi Heng's words and actions perfectly exemplify the qualities of a gentleman.
Now, I know he has a girlfriend.
For Huo Tingzhou, it was a huge relief.
They chatted for a few more minutes until static came through the receiver, at which point he reluctantly hung up the phone.
Looking up, I saw Xiao Zhengjun leaning against the door frame, his right hand covering his cheek.
Before Huo Tingzhou could speak.
Xiao Zhengjun teased with a mocking look in his eyes, "I never expected this, I never expected that you would talk to your sister-in-law like this, my goodness! It's so cheesy it's making my teeth ache..."
Before he could finish speaking, Huo Tingzhou grabbed the training manual from the table and threw it at him.
Xiao Zhengjun nimbly jumped up and took it, "Why did you resort to a sneak attack?"
"I haven't even accused you of eavesdropping yet!" Huo Tingzhou said calmly.
His wife is easily embarrassed, and luckily he didn't say anything mushy just now, otherwise she would have been laughed at by him for half a year.
“How could this be eavesdropping? I’m standing here openly and honestly. You were so busy talking to your sister-in-law that you didn’t notice. It’s not my fault.”
After putting the training manual away, Xiao Zhengjun plopped down on the stool next to him.
"To be honest, I'm really not used to you leaving."
After all, they had been together for seven or eight years, and Huo Tingzhou's sudden departure left him feeling empty.
Perhaps feeling that the topic was a bit heavy, he chuckled and said, "But why didn't you tell your sister-in-law beforehand about your transfer? If you had, she would have been very happy."
Huo Tingzhou pondered for a moment, "The higher-ups have only expressed this intention; whether it will actually come to fruition is still uncertain."
The matter was to be accomplished in secret, and he didn't want to disappoint her.
