Ji Xia didn't stay here for the entire three days. There were also some things to deal with at Factory 21. Ji Xia barely had time to close his eyes, let alone listen to Qin Xiao and go back early.
Ji Xia closed her eyes and took a nap in the conference room. She smelled the thick aroma of white porridge. She opened her eyes and saw Qin Xiao beside her.
The porridge was brought over, along with a small bowl of pickles and four large meat buns.
"Eat something." Qin Xiao looked at the tiredness between Ji Xia's eyebrows and the dark circles under his eyes. He couldn't help feeling irritated in his heart, and an indelible guilt surged up in his heart.
He had once placed his hopes for the development of China's science and technology industry on her, and decided to marry her not only because he liked her as a person, but he might have had other calculations.
After they got married, he had more convenient conditions to ensure her safety, and he could legitimately help her with anything she did.
But only at this moment did he realize how selfish and irresponsible it was to let her bear alone the hope for the revitalization of a country and a nation.
Qin Xiao endured the heavy heartache in his heart, his face as gloomy as water. He scooped up the porridge from the lunch box with a spoon and fed it to her mouth. "After breakfast, I will take you back to sleep for a while. You can't get out of this steel."
Ji Xia was a little surprised. Her sparkling eyes looked at Qin Xiao and she couldn't help but laugh, "Hey, don't you want your country to prosper? Don't you want the national industry to advance by leaps and bounds? Don't you want to surpass the United States, Britain, and the Soviet Union in three years?"
Qin Xiao stared at her with his clear eyes, pursed his thin lips, and said nothing, just handed the porridge to her lips.
Ji Xia took a sip. The porridge was rich, fragrant, soft, and delicious. Ji Xia leaned on his shoulder like a boneless person and ate three mouthfuls in a row. When his mind cleared up a little, he sat up straight and took the spoon. "I'll eat it myself."
Qin Xiao was still holding the lunch box. He felt so distressed at the moment. Seeing her eat several mouthfuls of porridge in a row and not even taking care of the dishes, he also scolded Yang Baoguo of Fugang.
Qin Xiao is also busy every day, but no matter how busy he is, he will come here for a while every day to see Ji Xia and ensure her safety. However, he does not have time to follow Ji Xia all the time. He never thought that Yang Baoguo was so busy that he couldn't even ensure that his wife had a good meal.
This is too much.
Qin Xiao took the chopsticks, picked up two pickles and handed them to Ji Xia, "It tastes salty. You won't feel comfortable if you eat all the porridge."
Ji Xia opened her mouth and started eating. She had eaten about half of the porridge before she remembered to ask, "Have you eaten yet?"
The aluminum lunch box was quite large, and Ji Xia couldn't finish it all. She handed him the spoon and said, "I can't eat anymore."
Qin Xiao took a meat bun and handed it to her, "Eat something dry. If you only eat liquid food, you will be hungry soon."
Yang Baoguo brought up two buns in a lunch box, intending to present the treasure to Ji Xia. When he rushed into the meeting room, he saw Qin Xiao feeding buns to his wife. He had gotten to know Qin Xiao in the past two days and knew that he was an officer in the army. Judging from his demeanor and skills, his family should have quite a background.
He is an outstanding person with a cool temperament, but who would have thought that he is actually a crazy wife-doting man in private.
When Ji Xia refused to eat, he patiently coaxed her, breaking off a small piece of the bun and stuffing it into Ji Xia's mouth. "Eat a little less. The buns from the state-owned restaurant are always delicious."
"I thought you made it yourself. I don't eat the ones from state-owned restaurants. They taste bad." Ji Xia didn't want to eat the buns from the state-owned restaurant. He didn't sleep well, so he was very irritable and in a bad mood.
"Okay, if you don't want to eat, then don't eat. I'll go back and steam buns for you later. But if you don't eat now, you'll be hungry, and being hungry will make you feel uncomfortable. Can you just reluctantly eat a few bites for now?" Qin Xiao coaxed.
Ji Xia was about to open her mouth when Qin Xiao pinched out the meat filling inside and gave it to her. She immediately closed her mouth and frowned, "I don't eat the filling, I only eat the outer skin of the bun."
"I bought meat buns with meat filling." Qin Xiao was very patient. He knew that his wife had a bad temper.
"I don't eat meat. I don't want to eat meat. Who eats meat so early in the morning?" Ji Xia slumped down on the table and yawned. "You eat. I'll take a nap. Call me if you need anything."
Qin Xiao had no choice but to put the buns back. Seeing his wife so tired, he really wanted to blow this place up. He didn't expect that the technical staff here were so poor. The difference between them and his wife was not only the distance between the underworld and Lingxiao Palace.
Yang Baoguo looked at the buns in his hand in embarrassment. Should he go in and deliver them, or go in and deliver them?
Qin Xiao glanced at him from the corner of his eye. Yang Baoguo smiled awkwardly and retreated. After thinking for a while, he thought, it was too late to send it over now.
"Ji Gong, Ji Gong, the molten steel is coming out, the molten steel is coming out!"
Kang took two steps at a time and rushed in from outside. Yang Baoguo made a "hush" sound, signaling him to keep his voice down, but it was too late. Ji Xia was still sleeping in a daze. When he heard the noise, his body moved before his consciousness and he got up.
Qin Xiao held her hand and said, "Let's sleep for a while before going."
"No, there's no problem with the molten steel. I'm going back. Alas, I've aged almost ten years." She leaned over Qin Xiao's back and took a deep breath of his scent. The dangerous scent of an adult man was stronger, covering the scent of cedar and making it even more sexy and pleasant.
"Remember my kindness, I did this all for you..."
She wanted to say "for the sake of your motherland", but this was a bit ambiguous. If he suspected her and reported her, it would be a waste of time and she would not be able to explain herself.
Qin Xiao has some intentions towards her, so there is no problem for her to enslave Qin Xiao.
The motherland is his bottom line. Even if it is a joke, she cannot touch his bottom line. She knows better than anyone how strong the principles of a soldier are.
Qin Xiao misunderstood. His face turned red, the tips of his ears were so red that they seemed to bleed, and his heart was beating so fast that it was about to jump out of his chest. He didn't expect that the first person to confess was his wife.
Compared to his wife, he is really weak, but he is also very happy. His wife likes him, and for him, his wife works day and night.
But he really didn't want his wife to be so tired. When he returned today, he had to make three rules with her. No matter how much his wife loved him, no matter how much she loved him to death, she could not joke with her body.
Ji Xia rubbed Qin Xiao's body, then stood up and walked out of the meeting room. Seeing Yang Baoguo and Li Kang's eyes wide open and their ghostly expressions, she came to her senses.
People nowadays are so conservative that if a man rescues a woman from the water, the woman has to marry him, because the woman's innocence is ruined by physical contact.
Even if she and Qin Xiao are husband and wife, they cannot flirt with each other outside, let alone be affectionate with each other. This is immoral.
Ji Xia wasn't embarrassed, because she realized that these two people were even more embarrassed than she was. She said, "My husband brought me breakfast. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you!"
