Many people came to Grandma Zhao's courtyard.
"Lu Chen, come quickly?" Liu Yashi called Lu Chen in.
Lu Chen walked to Old Mrs. Zhao's bedside and looked at her dying state.
"Aunt Zhao?" Lu Chen squatted down, looking at the old lady Zhao with great heartache.
"Lu Chen?" Old Mrs. Zhao reached out and took Lu Chen's hand, her voice very weak.
Lu Chen nodded in response, "Aunt Zhao, I'm here."
"They're going to take me to the hospital, but I know I'm not going to make it. I just need one word from you." Old Mrs. Zhao looked at Lu Chen, her eyes almost closed, but she had managed to stay awake until now when she saw Lu Chen.
Lu Chen looked at Old Madam Zhao.
I know what Grandma Zhao wants to ask.
"You mean?" Lu Chen's eyes were already red.
"Tell me, is Quanyou dead? How did he die?" Old Mrs. Zhao finally asked the question that Lu Chen was afraid of.
Even though Lu Chen had mentally prepared himself, he still couldn't bring himself to speak.
“I’m not blaming you. I know you did it all for me. I lost three children, what can’t I accept? Lu Chen, Aunt Zhao just wants to know how Quan You died and how long he’s been dead?”
Liu Yashi closed his eyes and sighed helplessly.
Lu Chen lowered his head in shame and said, "It's been almost two years. He was killed by enemy agents. He sacrificed himself heroically and saved several new recruits before he died."
When Grandma Zhao heard Lu Chen say those words, she choked up and closed her eyes.
"Aunt Zhao, let's go to the hospital first. We can talk about anything there, okay?" Liu Xinlan said to the old lady Zhao.
Grandma Zhao did not speak.
Shen Qiaoyue had just arrived when Old Mrs. Zhao was taken to the hospital.
Everyone dispersed, and Liu Xinlan and Xu Qianli accompanied him to the hospital, while Lu Chen came out from inside.
"I'll be watching over Aunt Zhao today, and I probably won't be back until very late tonight." Lu Chen can't slaughter the pig now; Old Mrs. Zhao has no children by her side, so only he, as her leader, can handle her affairs after her death.
Shen Qiaoyue nodded and said to Lu Chen, "Don't blame yourself too much. Maybe Aunt Zhao is just sick. With so many doctors taking care of Xinlan, she'll be fine."
Lu Chen knew that Shen Qiaoyue was comforting him, so he nodded.
"Get some rest early," Lu Chen urged Shen Qiaoyue.
Shen Qiaoyue pulled Lu Chen and said, "Go home and put on some clothes."
Lu Chen had come out in such a hurry that he was chopping wood in the yard, and he was only wearing a white shirt.
“Okay, I’ll take you back.” Lu Chen took Shen Qiaoyue’s hand and they went back together.
After returning home, Lu Chen even helped carry the hot water to the water room.
"Honey, bring the hot water to the washroom. I'll wash the clothes I changed out of when I have time. You rest first, and remember to dream." Lu Chen wasn't sure if he could come back that night, so he asked Shen Qiaoyue to lock the door first.
"Okay, I understand." Shen Qiaoyue replied to Lu Chen as she searched for clothes in the closet.
After finding the clothes, they saw that Lu Chen had already walked away.
After taking a shower, Shen Qiaoyue returned to her room, locked the door, opened the locked cabinet, and took out a foreign book to read.
The book was wrapped in several layers of cloth and placed in a box containing clothes. It was wrapped in several layers of cloth. This was the book that Shen Qiaoyue loved the most when she was in college. Now she was not allowed to read this book, and Shen Qiaoyue couldn't bear to part with it, so she secretly hid it.
This book tells the story of a girl who rises from the ranks of the powerful to the pinnacle of power, and Shen Qiaoyue has always enjoyed reading it.
I was so sleepy when I got to the end of the book that I lay down and fell asleep.
Late at night, after Lu Chen returned home, he saw that Shen Qiaoyue had fallen asleep while reading. Shen Qiaoyue had locked the door, so Lu Chen unlocked the door from the inside.
Seeing that Shen Qiaoyue was still the same as before, she liked to read and sleep.
Looking at the book in Shen Qiaoyue's hand.
He smiled helplessly and muttered to himself, "They really have guts to take out a book like this to read!"
Shen Qiaoyue had kept this book hidden in a box, and only Lu Chen and Shen Qiaoyue knew about it.
Shen Qiaoyue actually took it out today.
"I just can't do anything with you!" Lu Chen hid the book, found his clothes, and went to take a shower.
After Lu Chen finished washing up, he also washed all the clothes in the house.
After washing the clothes, I went back to my room and lay down to rest.
Shen Qiaoyue took the opportunity to snuggle into Lu Chen's arms.
"Little guy, were you awake a while ago?" Lu Chen transformed from a rough man into a good family man, all because he married a wife who loves beauty and cleanliness.
"Mmm, I woke up when you took my book. I've been waiting for you to come in after your shower for ages." Shen Qiaoyue had been awake since Lu Chen knocked on the door and came back; she knew it was Lu Chen.
This residential compound is now heavily guarded, and strangers can't get in at all.
She pretended to be asleep to see what Lu Chen would do.
When he returned, it seemed he had already fallen asleep while Lu Chen was taking a shower.
It felt so warm nestled in Lu Chen's arms.
"Now that you're awake, shall we do something different?" Lu Chen smiled, his hand already moving downwards.
Shen Qiaoyue took the initiative to put her arms around Lu Chen's neck, sat up, and looked down at Lu Chen.
"Okay, let's try something different today!" Shen Qiaoyue looked at Lu Chen excitedly, touching Lu Chen's abs, which were very firm.
Lu Chen lay there watching Shen Qiaoyue's every move.
He raised his hand and grabbed Shen Qiaoyue's restless hand, staring at her with a smile.
His large hand gripped Shen Qiaoyue's slender waist.
He rolled over and pinned Shen Qiaoyue beneath him, then leaned down and kissed her lips.
Faced with this ardent response, Shen Qiaoyue closed her eyes and let Lu Chen do as he pleased.
