Lu's mother and father were not at home, and she didn't know what was going on, so she went back to her room. She didn't come out of the room until it was almost dark and her stomach was rumbling.

As soon as I came out, I saw Lu's mother and Lu's father returning home.

Two people pushed the door open with smiles on their faces, but the moment they saw her, the smiles on their faces disappeared instantly.

Zhou Xiaohui was very unhappy. Just as she was about to go into her room, she heard Lu's mother say, "The restaurant we went to this afternoon was pretty good. Let's go again tomorrow afternoon!"

Restaurant?

Zhou Xiaohui turned around quickly when she heard this, "Mom and Dad, have you two already eaten?"

"certainly!"

Mother Lu raised her eyes high and glared at Zhou Xiaohui with disdain. "I told my son that you didn't want to cook for us, so my son gave us money to eat out. The food outside tastes really good, better than your cooking!"

After saying that, they both went into the room.

Zhou Xiaohui stood at the door in amazement.

She was also thinking that Lu's mother would go to the kitchen to cook after she came back, because even if she didn't eat, the two of them would have to eat.

Why did you go out to eat?

“Gugu…”

Her stomach growled twice again, and before Zhou Xiaohui entered the kitchen, Lu Yifan pushed the door open and came back.

The two people's eyes met and Lu Yifan impatiently looked away from her. Zhou Xiaohui walked over quickly, "Brother Yifan, can you give your parents money and let them go out for dinner?"

"Um."

"Since you don't have to cook for the next two days, I'll let them eat out."

Lu Yifan didn't think there was anything wrong with doing this.

After saying that, he walked over to the sofa and sat down.

"You give them money to eat out, but what about me? I haven't even eaten yet!" Zhou Xiaohui shouted, "Brother Yifan, I know your mother dislikes me for not having children, but is this because I don't want to have children?"

Zhou Xiaohui yelled loudly, and Lu Yifan pinched his temples in annoyance.

"Brother Yifan."

Zhou Xiaohui looked at Lu Yifan and was very unhappy. She could only sit beside him, holding his arms with both hands, leaning on his shoulders, looking aggrieved. "I admit that I haven't been in a good mood in the past two days, but I didn't get a regular job, and..."

Zhou Xiaohui's eyes rolled around and she stopped here.

What Lu Yifan hated most was when others stopped talking halfway, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

"It was the day when Shen Youran and the others came back. They actually mocked me halfway and said that I was not worthy of you at all!" Zhou Xiaohui squeezed out two tears while saying this, "Brother Yifan, I really like you!"

When Lu Yifan heard this, his heart softened and he hugged Zhou Xiaohui in his arms, "Okay, then you go out to eat tomorrow, and I'll adjust my parents' mood and let Mom cook at home."

Zhou Xiaohui pretended to nod.

But he hummed coldly in his heart.

Mother Lu is alone in front of Lu Yifan and alone in front of herself.

She doesn't care anymore!

If they just endure for a few more months, they will be able to move into their own house. By then, he will throw away all of Shen Youran's things and even redecorate it.

There must not be any trace of Shen Youran and that wild child there!

"Shen Youran also said that I am not worthy of you. He is just a platoon leader and is far inferior to you!" Zhou Xiaohui raised her eyebrows.

After hearing this, Lu Yifan was upset. "She has been promoted and is now the deputy battalion commander. I haven't had any chance to make merit recently. If this continues for a while, if he makes merit again, he can become the battalion commander and be on an equal footing with me!"

"What?"

Zhou Xiaohui was stunned.

That day she said Shen Youran was just a platoon leader, but she didn't expect that he has now been promoted to deputy battalion commander!

"Then how come you don't have a chance to make merit? You are the battalion commander. Every time you are taken out on a mission, you can definitely do more and make more merit!"

Zhou Xiaohui was very confused. She heard that this matter was handled very well because it had been reported in the newspapers.

Why did Shen Youran and the others get promoted, but Lu Yifan didn’t?

"Why can he be the deputy battalion commander? It is a disgrace to the army for someone like her to become the deputy battalion commander!" Zhou Xiaohui was very unhappy. She stared straight ahead with her fists clenched.

She would never admit that she lost to Shen Youran.

Shen Youran is disgusting and evil!

"Maybe he used some shady means to become the deputy battalion commander!" Zhou Xiaohui felt that only by using this kind of verbal insult could she feel better.

Unexpectedly, after saying this, Lu Yifan's mind resurfaced with the discussions he had just heard outside the military area.

Shen Youran and Lu Zheng went to the army on Saturday. They didn't have much interaction and their ranks were very different. How could they appear together?

Is there really something fishy going on here?

"It's impossible for her not to rely on men!"

Zhou Xiaohui cursed and swore, while Lu Yifan continued to ponder.

Talking about this matter, he felt that something was not right. Could it be that the reason why Lu Zheng did not let him go to protect the group of female soldiers and become the main meritorious person was because he was deliberately targeting him?

But after thinking about it, Lu Yifan felt that it was unlikely.

After all, Shen Youran is a divorced woman, while Lu Zheng is still unmarried.

Even if he likes Shen Youran, his family probably won't agree.

And everyone says that Lu Zheng has a strong sense of justice and is a very upright person, and he would not do this.

But why did he deliberately stay in school last time?

He is the battalion commander and he is quite capable. He can obviously keep up. If he follows Shen Youran and the others to the village where they were abducted, he will definitely be able to make a contribution this time.

If he moves up step by step, he might be able to become the deputy head of the group.

After thinking so much, Lu Yifan's heart was in a mess.

"People in our hospital actually said she was pretty!" The couple reached an agreement, so Zhou Xiaohui dared to curse at people casually, "How can she be pretty? She is obviously ugly, okay?"

"I think those people just have poor vision. Maybe it's because she got promoted that everyone praises her so much and compliments her!"

"nausea!"

Zhou Xiaohui was cursing beside him, and Lu Yifan suddenly remembered that Shen Youran was indeed quite good-looking.

I don’t know why it’s different from before.

In the past, Shen Youran always kept her head down and never took care of herself. She looked like a mediocre woman.

Shen Youran's smile now is bright and sunny, and there is an indescribable feeling.

If that's the case, it's no surprise that Lu Zheng likes her.

But Shen Youran clearly has a child!
