Grandpa Xia pinched the bridge of his nose: "You just ignored everything I said, didn't you? I told you, what's done is done, don't bring it up again. Ayan doesn't need your apology. You just need to think more before you do things in the future."
Although Zhang Junan felt somewhat uneasy, he nodded and went back.
As Grandpa Xia watched his departing figure, he knew that the boy would continue to overthink things and eventually cause trouble for his granddaughter.
Forget it, whatever, let's just wait it out for now.
After returning to her room, Xia Anyan took out some stationery, found a pen, and wrote an apology letter.
She didn't plan to mail the letter; instead, she intended to hand it to Gu Shen personally when he returned.
She knew in her heart that Gu Shen probably didn't care about these things.
However, she also cared about what Captain Gong said.
Moreover, Gu Shen likes her, respects her, and is willing to protect her in everything, but she cannot let this harm Gu Shen.
They are husband and wife now, husband and wife are one. She didn't consider Gu Shen before doing things, which is a big mistake.
She must actively correct her behavior to prevent herself from doing something bad again.
...
After Captain Gong returned, he kept thinking about this matter.
Did he go a little too far?
Before doing this, Xia Anyan was indeed a bit too impulsive, but she did not use Gu Shen's identity to cause trouble outside.
If we really say he did something wrong, it's that he didn't consider his own status. But why should an outsider like him get angry about these things?
Thinking about this, Captain Gong also felt a little irritated.
"Captain, it's so late, why aren't you asleep yet?"
Captain Gong couldn't sleep, so he tossed and turned in bed thinking, which unexpectedly woke up the person next to him.
He shook his head: "I'm fine, you go to sleep first."
The person next to him sat up and actually came to his bed with a blanket.
Captain Gong frowned at first, then moved to the side.
"Boss, you've been acting a bit strange ever since you came back from your sister-in-law's. Could something have happened there?"
"To be honest, although our sister-in-law comes from a poor background, she's actually quite a good person overall."
"She's beautiful, speaks sweetly, and most importantly, Commander Gu likes her. Having someone who cares about him by his side means he can take care of her when he goes on missions. Isn't that great?"
These people had spent a long time with Gu Shen.
It's just that when Gu Shen got married, they were in the military and it wasn't convenient for them to go, so they didn't meet Xia Anyan.
However, they already knew about Xia Anyan's identity and had investigated her past experiences.
Although Captain Gong was still somewhat unhappy, his brother's words made him understand a lot.
"Okay, I understand. You should go back to sleep now."
But after saying that, the man still didn't intend to go back and simply stayed there.
Captain Gong grabbed his ear and said, "Didn't you hear me? Get back here right now, we have things to do tomorrow."
The two laughed and joked for a while before closing their eyes to rest.
The next day, Captain Gong had just left the guesthouse when he ran into Xia Anyan at the entrance.
She was holding two lunchboxes, clearly waiting for him.
He frowned, but still stepped forward: "Sister-in-law, why are you here at this hour? Is something the matter?"
Xia Anyan placed the lunchbox in his hand: "You left in a hurry yesterday and forgot to bring your lunchbox. This morning I went to the state-run restaurant next door and bought a few meat buns. I put them in here. They're still warm. You can take them and eat them."
"Oh, right, this is for you." She took a letter out of her pocket and stuffed it into Captain Gong's hand.
Last night, after writing the letter of apology, she still felt it wasn't quite right, so she wrote another one for Captain Gong.
"What is this?" Captain Gong looked at the letter in his hand with a puzzled expression, unable to understand it.
Xia Anyan pursed her lips.
Since I've already written it, there's nothing to be embarrassed about saying it.
"This is a letter of apology I wrote. You'll understand once you've read it."
As if afraid of being rejected, Xia Anyan left as soon as she finished speaking.
Captain Gong was torn between chasing after what he was holding and not chasing after it.
After Xia Anyan ran far away, other people came out behind her.
"Hey, that woman's back looks a lot like Sister Xia's. Captain, was that Sister Xia you were talking to just now? What's she doing here?"
Captain Gong glanced at the person who spoke: "Do your job and don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."
The man pursed his lips after being insulted.
Just as I was about to leave, I smelled a delicious fragrance.
Following the aroma, they discovered it was coming from the lunchbox their captain was holding.
"Hey, Captain, what's in this lunchbox?"
"Come on, you must be tired, let me carry it for you."
Seeing that the brat was about to snatch the item from his hands, Captain Gong simply turned around and threw the man away.
Although he disliked Xia Anyan and felt that he shouldn't accept the things she sent, it didn't mean he would just casually give them away to someone else.
"Stop having nothing better to do than hanging around me all the time. Go do what you're supposed to be doing. Have you forgotten what I told you before?"
After Captain Gong finished speaking, he took the things and left, without even thinking about sharing them with his brothers.
He found a spot, opened the lunchbox, and was immediately drawn to the several large steamed buns inside.
Eight steamed buns filled the lunchbox to the brim.
Most importantly, all eight buns were filled with meat, and the filling was very generous, with the oil seeping out.
Although Captain Gong has a good amount of food on this day of the month, he can't bear to eat it all. He wants to take some back to his hometown and save some to get married.
This steamed bun was the best he had eaten in a while.
While eating, he opened the letter Xia Anyan had given him and began to read it.
Every stroke was written by Xia Anyan herself, and every word was carefully considered; there wasn't a single superfluous word.
The letter, spanning two full pages, not only recounted what happened at the time but also described her thought process, expressed her thoughts, and promised not to repeat the mistake.
Upon seeing the letter, he was still somewhat incredulous.
Do people like Xia Anyan really realize they've done something wrong and then admit it?
"Captain, why are you sneaking around here having a snack all by yourself?" The young comrade who stayed with Captain Gong last night saw their captain watching things from afar.
He couldn't resist coming closer, and then he smelled the delicious aroma of meat buns, which made him incredibly tempted!
