The news that he brought his own lunch and was completely smitten with his new wife spread throughout the military region once again.
It wasn't that they were exaggerating; they were genuinely astonished.
After all, Lu Ting is known as a cold-faced tyrant.
Ma Yingchun, who lived next door, also heard about this gossip. She glanced at Wei Deyao, who was sitting idly next to her, and felt a little envious.
"Look at you, all you do after eating is lie in bed all day. And look at Commander Lu, he even brings food to that capitalist's daughter. How come my family has been poor farmers for three generations and I still can't find a man like that? Really."
Wei Deyao stood up. "Then why don't you go to Commander Lu and ask him to introduce you?"
Ma Yingchun's face turned red with anger. "Wei Deyao, what do you mean?"
Wei Deyao lay back down on the bed, pulled the covers over his head, and fell asleep almost instantly, snoring loudly.
Knowing that the man didn't want to argue with her, Ma Yingchun was both angry and amused.
have to!
While Lu Ting went to get lunch, Su Miaoyan put the soap she had just used into the cabinet in the bathroom.
She had already come up with an excuse. When Lu Ting asked, she would say that she bought it in Rongcheng and brought it with her in her bag.
Su Miaoyan cleaned up the dust and some unclean spots on the ground, then sat obediently in the hall waiting for Lu Ting to return.
Feeling a bit bored, Su Miaoyan went back into her spatial dimension and instantly acquired pork, mutton, beef, and chicken, putting them into her backpack. She also collected ripe crops and fruits such as peaches, pears, and watermelons.
Using the same method, she harvested the goods with one click and stored them in her backpack. In order to prevent Lu Ting from finding out, Su Miaoyan decided to go to the local supply and marketing cooperative, canteen, or military orchard tomorrow to make a formality.
Then... take all the vegetables and fruits out of the space, put them in the open, and bring them back.
After thinking it all through, Su Miaoyan left the space. Just then, she heard footsteps approaching from afar. Excellent, the timing was perfect!
Su Miaoyan immediately went to greet her.
The shoes made a clattering sound on the floor tiles, leaving some water stains.
As soon as Su Miaoyan stepped into the yard, Lu Ting closed the gate and came over carrying corn and fruit.
Seeing her standing in the middle of the courtyard, he frowned slightly. "Didn't I tell you to just go back to your room and wait?"
She was only wearing a nightgown. The temperature in the Gobi Desert was dry. Wasn't she afraid that the wind would make her skin peel?
Su Miaoyan was not afraid at all. She had just discovered that the invisible film that inexplicably grew on her body after drinking the spiritual spring water had the effect of protecting her skin.
With the addition of the face cream she had just applied, Su Miaoyan became even more unrestrained.
She stepped forward and explained, "Lu Ting, I just wanted to wait for you here. It would be bad to let you go shopping alone."
Lu Ting's brows relaxed. "Let's wait inside from now on. It's hot and windy outside, and I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it."
Su Miaoyan didn't move.
Her eyes were crystal clear, like a spring, and she stared straight at the man in front of her.
When Lu Ting met her gaze, he awkwardly turned his head away, his breathing slowing down.
Su Miaoyan's eyes were red, and she spoke in a soft voice.
"Lu Ting, I just wanted to wait for you."
She continued softly, "After all, you're the best person to me right now. I... I don't know anything, I always have to trouble you, and I don't know how to repay you, so this is all I can do."
The girl's soft, gentle voice was like a spring breeze in April, warming his cold and hard heart.
Lu Ting took a deep breath, trying to calm the pounding in his heart.
He looked at her solemnly.
At the prime of his life, with his newlywed wife standing before him, Lu Ting didn't want to offend her so quickly, so he could only take a few steps back.
He said, "I've said it before, there's no need for repayment between us, this is just what I should do."
After saying that, he didn't dare to look the other person in the eye and turned to leave as if fleeing.
I'm afraid the other person will notice something's off about me.
Su Miaoyan stood there stunned for a while, then paused for a few seconds, wondering why Lu Ting had left before she had even said anything.
Could something have happened?
Su Miaoyan followed her inside.
On the table were the corn and fruit that had just been brought back, but Lu Ting was nowhere to be seen in the living room.
Su Miaoyan went to another room and looked around, finally hearing a noise in the kitchen.
She walked over.
Peeking out, she called out softly, "Lu Ting?"
Lu Ting was carrying hot water, and when he saw her, his face seemed to return to its usual serious expression.
He walked forward and said, "The corn and fruit are on the table. There are also two meals left. One of them is for you. Don't go hungry."
"I'm going to take a shower, and I'll eat after I'm done."
"Oh, okay."
Su Miaoyan nodded and watched the man walk into the restroom.
Taking advantage of the moment, Su Miaoyan whispered, "The soap I brought from Rongcheng is on the cabinet. Remember to use it."
Lu Ting focused on carrying the hot water. "Okay."
After closing the bathroom door, Su Miaoyan went to the living room.
Take out the fragrant, steaming, and cleaned fruit and place it in your hand.
Su Miaoyan took a bite of the fruit and frowned slightly.
Why does it taste different from the previous apple?
The flesh was dry, astringent, and a bit old; it was nothing like the juicy, sweet, and refreshing fruit I had before.
Could it be related to the spirit spring water?
Su Miaoyan tried dripping a drop of spiritual spring water onto it, and after the spiritual spring water and fruit pulp were completely integrated, she tried taking a bite.
!!
Su Miaoyan couldn't resist taking another bite. Sure enough, the taste of the fruit was closely related to the spiritual spring water.
It's no wonder the fruit is old. She remembers that resources were scarce and planting techniques were limited at that time. In her previous life, she worked in the countryside for seven years. Countless times, just when it was time to harvest, a bad day would cause all her hard work to be wasted.
well.
Su Miaoyan sighed.
Continue dividing the fruit and corn in your hand in half, and eat only half yourself.
Inside the toilet, Lu Ting used a water bucket to scoop water, mixing hot and cold water. Once the water was at the right temperature, he poured it over himself.
He also placed a basin underneath, which he intended to use for recycling.
The family compound in the Gobi Desert is nice; it was built in exchange for the bad weather and shortages of supplies.
Fortunately, there is no shortage of fruit here, as the abundant sunshine and large temperature difference between day and night are very suitable for the growth of some fruits.
As Lu Ting washed, he kept thinking about the girl from earlier.
He felt a stirring in his heart, and his eyes gradually turned lustful.
Hot water was poured over his head, following the contours of his muscular physique, and gradually dripped into the basin, splashing water everywhere.
His black hair was wet and drooping over his forehead. Lu Ting's ears were slightly red, and he picked up the soap from the cabinet with a trembling body.
The soap smelled wonderful. As Lu Ting washed himself, he looked out the window at the increasingly dark night, feeling somewhat nervous.
Tonight, is their belated wedding night?
