Chapter 7 It’s getting late, go to bed

Xia Juanjuan nodded obediently to show that she understood.

Only then did Li Zhan let go of Xia Juanjuan.

Although he only took a few glances, Li Zhan still noticed the purple bruises on Xia Juanjuan's arms and back, and his brows couldn't help but frown slightly.

She was injured? Who beat her?

"Were the injuries on your body caused by someone in your family? ... Did your family force you to marry me?"

This is not surprising. After all, he could die at any time while performing his duties, and he is often away from home. Which girl would be willing to marry him and live as a widow?

When Xia Juanjuan heard Li Zhan asking about the injuries on her body, she couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, and then her face suddenly turned red so red that blood was almost dripping out.

Noticing the injuries on her body meant that he was seen naked!

Although she traveled through time from the 21st century, she has never been in love.

Although the man in front of her was nominally her husband, he was still a stranger she met for the first time. How could she not be shy?

Without waiting for her to answer, Li Zhan continued, "If you...really don't want to marry me, I'll go to the commune tomorrow morning to explain the situation, and we can get a divorce..."

"I do!"

Without waiting for Li Zhan to finish speaking, Xia Juanjuan hurriedly stated her position.

Although the Li family has many top-notch people, none of them are familiar with her. Her husband is still serving in the army and probably won't be back for a year or two. She can rely on the supplies in the space to eat and drink the best she can and do what she wants without having to worry about anything.

If she divorced, she would have to go back to the Xia family, which would be inconvenient! She couldn't pretend to be the cowardly and humiliating character of the original owner, nor did she want to pretend.

Li Zhan didn't expect her to be so determined, and couldn't help but look at Xia Juanjuan in surprise.

Xia Juanjuan's face turned even redder, and she said, "Besides... you've seen my body naked. If we're divorced, how can I... how can I get married again?"

These words made Li Zhan blush and he stammered, "Oh... that seems to be true..."

He stroked his hair: "Don't worry! I will definitely treat you well!"

After saying this, he turned around somewhat embarrassedly to look at his new house.

As soon as he saw that it was serious, his brows couldn't help but wrinkle.

This is... too simple!

This room was where he lived before he joined the army.

Lizhan left home to join the army at the age of fifteen, and after that he only came back to stay for a few nights during his annual family visit. Over time, this room became a storage room for a lot of junk.

Now at a glance, there is still a lot of debris that has not been moved away, and there is no decent furniture in the house.

He sends his allowance back home every month, so how come his family doesn't even have enough money to decorate their new home?

Even on the kang...

Only then did Li Zhan notice that the kang was bare and there was no bedding.

He looked suspiciously at the bedding piled at the door, then at the kang, and then turned to look at Xia Juanjuan inquiringly.

While Li Zhan was observing the room, Xia Juanjuan was also observing Li Zhan.

When she looked closer, she found that her 'husband' had a handsome face, a high nose bridge, deep starry eyes, thin lips, and a faint stubble on his marble-like jaw, making him look rough and masculine.

It cannot be said that this handsome man looks exactly like his mother Liu Lan, but it can be said that they have nothing to do with each other.

Originally, after seeing Liu Lan's appearance, Xia Juanjuan had already prepared herself mentally for her husband to be an ugly man.

The result is a bit rough, but it's really handsome!

It's a pity that such a handsome man can't have children. It's such a pity!

Xia Juanjuan was a little obsessed.

Because of this, when Xia Juanjuan met Lizhan's eyes, she blushed again in embarrassment.

Li Zhan didn't pay attention and asked, "Why did you leave that... quilt... at the door? Isn't it cold?"

It's late autumn now, and the temperature at night is only about five or six degrees.

Although there is a kang in the house, it cannot be heated up just by burning it even in the dead of winter when firewood is scarce.

It’s even more impossible in autumn!

Xia Juanjuan naturally couldn't say that she had new down quilts in her room and had just taken them out and spread them out. If he hadn't come back suddenly, she would have crawled into the quilt and slept soundly.

Therefore, I had to tell the truth: "My second sister-in-law said that the quilt was borrowed from her room, and asked me to be careful when sleeping and not to dirty it... Besides, I don't like quilts that have been used by others..."

There was a flash of displeasure in Li Zhan's eyes.

His family keeps saying they will find him a wife, but they haven’t even decorated the new house or bought him a new bed?

If he hadn't been in between assignments and hadn't notified anyone to take the time to come back, he wouldn't have known that his wife was bullied!

Xia Juanjuan had put on her clothes in a hurry, but her clothes were thin to begin with and she couldn't help shivering from the cold.

Lizhan took off his military coat and put it on Xia Juanjuan.

Xia Juanjuan was stunned for a moment when she was suddenly wrapped in a military coat stained with a man's body temperature. She looked at Li Zhan with surprise but also a warm feeling in her heart.

Li Zhan said, "If you think that the quilts used by others are dirty, just sleep under my military coat tonight. I'll buy some new quilts tomorrow to cover you with."

Xia Juanjuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded shyly: "Yeah."

"It's getting late, go to bed." Li Zhan said, and lay down on the kang with his clothes on.

Xia Juanjuan was a little nervous.

It was the first time for her to be alone in a room with a man late at night, and they had to sleep in the same bed.

But then she thought, her husband is already injured, what can he do to her? What is she afraid of!

So he wrapped himself in his military coat and fell asleep next to Li Zhan.

The red candles were blown out and the room became quiet.

Xia Juanjuan was so nervous at first that she couldn't sleep, but after traveling through time, getting married, and competing in the ultimate competition that day, she was exhausted and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Lizhan maintained his habit in the army and fell asleep as soon as he had the chance, but he slept very lightly.

I don’t know how long it had been, but Lizhan suddenly felt a warm and soft body crawling into his arms!

He opened his eyes immediately and saw Xia Juanjuan sleeping in a daze, with her military coat kicked off.

She must have felt cold, so she automatically looked for a "heat source" and rolled into his arms, with her little face pressed against his chest. She rubbed it a few times and found a comfortable position. Most of her upper body was pressed on Li Zhan's, and one leg was crossed over Li Zhan's legs, hugging Li Zhan tightly like a koala.

Fierce Battle: ...

Even through the clothes, one could feel the heat of their skin touching. Li Zhan felt his throat dry and couldn't help swallowing. His Adam's apple moved slightly and his hands on both sides of his body clenched into fists...
