Chapter 97 is 100% about Wang Manman.
I'm not going to tease this honest guy anymore.
Cen Yan had just finished get off work and hadn't eaten yet; she was starving.
He ran into the kitchen and grabbed two sets of bowls and chopsticks.
The oyster omelet was warm, fresh, fragrant, tender and smooth. When it went down her throat, Cen Yan was so delicious that she almost cried out, wishing she could swallow her tongue.
"You eat too." She put a piece on Qi Jingchuan's plate.
Qi Jingchuan glanced at the oyster omelet in his bowl, picked up his chopsticks, and began to eat slowly and deliberately.
During meals, Cen Yan didn't like to talk, and Qi Jingchuan was even quieter.
After finishing their meal, Cen Yan picked up the bowls and chopsticks to wash them, but Qi Jingchuan beat her to it, standing in front of the kitchen sink, his tall and imposing figure seemingly out of place in the kitchen.
"You bought oyster omelets, so I should wash the dishes," Cen Yan said hesitantly.
Qi Jingchuan said, "They're all the same."
"Then you wash it this time, and I'll wash it next time."
"Okay." Qi Jingchuan didn't refuse, but after a pause, he said, "I won't be staying at home tonight. I have to go back to the army for duty, so I won't be able to bring you breakfast tomorrow morning."
"It's alright! I can handle it myself." With so many supplies in the space, Cen Yan really wouldn't go hungry.
Qi Jingchuan changed the subject, "How's work lately? Are you settling in well at the health center?"
"I'm used to it. Sister Mi Shan and the others have been taking good care of me. After working here for a few days, I'm familiar with the procedures at the health center, and things are going smoothly."
"That's good. If anyone bullies you, just tell me," Qi Jingchuan instructed.
Upon hearing this, Cen Yan couldn't help but chuckle.
Qi Jingchuan: "What are you laughing at?"
No, no.
She simply found Qi Jingchuan's words hilarious. If she were bullied, she would run back to complain, making her sound like a tattletale.
If anyone dares to bully her, Wang Manman's fate today will be the troublemaker's fate tomorrow. Cen Yan is fearless and invincible. In this life, anyone who can bully her is probably not even born yet.
Qi Jingchuan wondered to himself, had he said something wrong? This little woman was laughing quite loudly.
Thinking this, the man felt a ticklish sensation in his heart, as if he had been scratched by a cat's claws.
After washing the dishes, Qi Jingchuan put them on the rack to dry, while Cen Yan enjoyed the cool air in the yard.
The courtyard is filled with edible roses, which have already bloomed under the irrigation of the spring water, and their fragrance is delightful.
Just then, the sentry at the gate of the family compound knocked on the door: "Commander Qi, there's a phone call for you."
Qi Jingchuan and Cen Yan informed each other and went outside to answer the phone.
When he returned, he went inside, changed into a clean military uniform, and went outside.
Seeing that something was wrong, Cen Yan immediately called out to him, "Qi Jingchuan, where are you going?"
Qi Jingchuan didn't hide it from her, "It was a call from the enforcement team, the teacher called, asking me to go over there."
Cen Yan understood immediately; it was definitely about Wang Manman's matter. Wang Lijuan's attempts to reconcile them failed, so Political Commissar Lu stepped in. After all, she was his wife's niece, so how could Political Commissar Lu sit idly by?
She leaned back in her recliner and waved her hand, "Then go ahead, it's a small matter anyway, you can handle it however you want."
Cen Yan didn't give Political Commissar Lu and his wife any face, but she was willing to give Qi Jingchuan some face.
This man knew she was a capitalist's daughter and knew the Cen family's situation, yet he was still willing to fulfill the marriage vows and help her through her difficulties.
Based on this affection alone, Qi Jingchuan had three opportunities to make demands of her; this was the first time.
She didn't want to cause a rift between Qi Jingchuan and Political Commissar Lu because of her.
But Cen Yan didn't expect that Qi Jingchuan, after arriving at the law enforcement team, would speak up before Political Commissar Lu.
