"What do I have to make up for? I just have some free time recently, so I'll stay here for a while." Li Xin shook his head, feeling both amused and helpless, and spoke as a matter of course.
He Beichen hasn't been bothering her recently, and she's not pregnant, so of course she has to work harder and do everything she needs to do in advance.
"Then don't tell Captain He that we were the ones taking you there..." Du Peng muttered softly.
"Um?"
"I'm afraid he'll make me do ten more sets!"
…
The five days passed quickly.
When she calculated the time for He Beichen to return and walked out of the research institute, she already saw He Beichen standing there.
He seemed to have been waiting at the door of the research institute for a long time. At this moment, when he saw Li Xin coming out, he just smiled gently.
"I've heard from them that you've been staying here recently and don't plan to go home?" He Beichen asked, but directly held Li Xin's hand.
The two people were very close to each other, and Li Xin didn't know if it was an illusion, but she seemed to smell a faint smell of blood on He Beichen.
Is he injured?
"Um... I'm not planning on going home. I just want to get things done in advance so that when you come back, we can spend our vacation together." Li Xin explained herself, holding He Beichen's fingers behind her back and casually asking, "Are you hurt?"
Although the smell of blood was very faint, it was indeed there.
"It's just a minor injury. It's normal to get bitten by snakes, rats, insects or ants in a place like that. I'm fine." He Beichen just smiled and shook his head, obviously not taking the matter too seriously.
But his casual attitude made Li Xin frown.
These are not questions of whether it hurts or not, but rather, if you are injured, you should deal with it.
Besides, there was already a smell of blood on his body, proving that this was not a minor injury.
As soon as he got back, Li Xin couldn't wait to pull He Beichen's clothes and unbutton his shirt.
He Beichen stretched out his hand to stop him, but saw that Li Xin had already noticed that he was injured.
Although it was not serious, the bloody scars looked shocking.
Li Xin couldn't help but take a breath, and there was a hint of heartache in his eyes.
The most important thing is that the marks next to him are obviously bites from some small creature, which looks the most troublesome. There are already several bumps on He Beichen's body.
"It's not a big deal. Besides me, other people have it too. Why worry so much?" He Beichen touched his wife's face and reminded her softly, pretending to be relaxed. "It's normal for soldiers to get injured."
"I understand the logic, but I feel uncomfortable when I see you like this. What if you are poisoned?" Seeing that He Beichen still had the mind to comfort himself, Li Xin quickly turned around to find medicine.
There is a high possibility that those insects and ants are carrying some virus. At the moment, He Beichen doesn’t care much about it. When they are really terminally ill, they will have no place to cry!
"I told you it's nothing, but you insisted on looking for it. There's some medicine left by Mingxi that's specifically for treating this kind of worm." He Beichen quickly expressed his importance to the matter and deliberately pointed to where the medicine was placed.
He knew exactly where the medicine was placed in the house, but when he came back, it had not been dealt with yet.
Li Xin grabbed the medicine and carefully applied it to He Beichen. His hands were very light and the heat spread on He Beichen's body, making him feel itchy, as if it was hooking him.
Almost instantly, He Beichen felt a surge of heat in his heart.
He has never had any resistance to Li Xin. There was a hint of urgency in his black eyes as he looked straight at Li Xin.
It looked like he was asking for advice!
Feeling the overly hot gaze, Li Xin held the cotton swab, reached out, and pressed it hard.
"Hiss--" Although the small lump didn't hurt much, but when it was pressed, and the stimulation was so sudden, He Beichen still gasped. He didn't dare to say anything and sat there obediently, looking as if he knew he had done something wrong.
"You know you're injured, but you don't want to clean yourself up right away. You're deliberately leaving all these wounds on your body. Do you want me to feel sorry for you?" Li Xin waited until he had wiped all his wounds before questioning him dissatisfiedly.
"It's just a minor injury. From the beginning, I didn't intend to let you know. Those gas bullets hit me accidentally. I was just a rookie and I was so careless."
He Beichen explained, but he had already written down the person who did this.
When the training officially begins, he will definitely give these ignorant people a good scolding!
"Then you should deal with it as soon as possible. If you continue to be so careless, you will have to sleep on the sofa." Li Xin only cared about the results he wanted to see.
When he heard about the risk of separate rooms, He Beichen nodded quickly without thinking and agreed, with obvious urgency on his face, fearing that Li Xin would be angry and kick him out.
He was about to come close to her, but Li Xin reached out and patted him: "I'm still having my period, you'd better suppress all those thoughts!"
He Beichen; “?”
No wonder the young wife has such a bad temper.
Hearing that Li Xin had her period, He Beichen subconsciously frowned. Does that mean she didn't get pregnant this time?
"You..." Seeing He Beichen's furrowed brows, Li Xin's arrogance was immediately suppressed a little. She looked at He Beichen carefully.
"I don't think I'll be able to get pregnant in the short term. You won't be disappointed, will you?"
Li Xin felt guilty for not getting pregnant.
After all, He Beichen is already so old, and other people's children are already running around, but there is no trace of his child.
Besides, Li Xin was very clear about the condition of his body.
Even if Ye Mingxi has been prescribing medicine for me, it may not be effective!
"What's there to be disappointed about? Without children, we can actually spend more time together." He Beichen put his arm around Li Xin's waist and moved closer to her.
Some of the sticky medicine even rubbed onto Li Xin's body, but she didn't mind and just leaned against He Beichen, listening to his heartbeat.
Only at this moment can Li Xin feel at ease.
"If I can't give birth to a child in my lifetime, grandpa will be sad, right?" Li Xin couldn't help but let her wild thoughts run wild, leaning in He Beichen's arms.
Thinking of that possibility, her expression suddenly showed a hint of loss.
Although in vitro fertilization will be possible after the subsequent development of technology, by the time medicine advances to that point, they may not have viable sperm and eggs!
Besides, her body was no longer suitable for pregnancy at that time.
"What are you thinking about?" He Beichen picked up Li Xin's little face, forcing her to look at him: "Who is more important, the child or me?"
