Chapter 259: A Short Separation Is Better Than a New Marriage
Xu Nuo's eyes followed the movement of the car. Finally, she saw the green military vehicle parked steadily in front of the colonel building.
The car door opened and a familiar figure walked out.
The military uniform outlines his tall and straight figure, his long legs are wrapped in straight uniform pants, and his steps are steady and powerful.
Xu Nuo's breathing paused, and he thought he was dreaming.
Lu Chen is back?
Lu Chen stopped, took off his military cap, and subconsciously looked up at the window. His jawline was as sharp as a knife, and when their eyes met, the corners of his lips slightly raised, and his eyes reflected a tiny light.
"Nono." He said in a deep voice, and his low, mellow voice sounded like heavenly music at this moment.
Xu Nuo's heart was beating fast, and her eyes were filled with joy and excitement. She waved at Lu Chen. In a blink of an eye, she turned around and disappeared behind the window, leaving only the curtain swaying slightly.
Xu Nuo rushed down the stairs, and the moment she opened the door, she rushed towards Lu Chen like a joyful bird.
"Slow down." He opened his arms, his voice hoarse from a long journey, but he steadily caught his wife who rushed over.
Xu Nuo fell into his arms, and the familiar scent of soap surrounded her.
Lu Chen tightened his arms and hugged her tightly.
"You're finally back...I'm not dreaming." Xu Nuo murmured.
When Lu Chen lowered his head, the tip of his nose brushed against her earlobe: "You've lost weight."
Just two short words made Xu Nuo's eyes warm.
"You've lost weight too." She raised her hand to touch his chiseled cheek.
The night wind blew through the locust tree, and petals fell on Lu Chen's shoulders.
Xu Nuo reached out to brush it away, but he grabbed her wrist and suddenly pressed his warm lips against her palm, which startled her eyelashes.
"I was gone for fifty-seven days," he said suddenly, stroking the beating pulse of her wrist with his thumb, "and I copied your name on paper every day."
Xu Nuo burst out laughing and stood on tiptoe to bite his chin: "Captain Lu has also learned how to be romantic?"
Before she could finish her words, she was lifted up by the hips. She exclaimed and hugged his neck. She heard a low vibration from his chest: "Only for you."
Xiao Wei got out of the car with his suitcase, a smile on his face. He had long been accustomed to the intimate scenes between the head of the group and his sister-in-law, and was not surprised by them - the tenderness of the head of the group Lu was only for his sister-in-law.
Xu Nuo was startled when he saw Xiao Wei appear, and struggled to get off Lu Chen.
"Sister-in-law, this is the captain's luggage. I'll leave first." Xiao Wei greeted her with a smile, put the box on the ground, got into the car, started the engine, and disappeared quickly.
"Lu Chen!" She blushed and lightly hit his shoulder, "Xiao Wei saw it all, what should I do?"
"We are a legal couple." He carried the luggage in one hand and held her in the other hand as they walked home. The smile in his eyes was even gentler than spring water.
As soon as the door closed, Xu Nuo was pushed against the door.
Lu Chen's military jacket still had the coolness of the night breeze, but his breath was scorching hot.
He lowered his head and sealed her lips. This kiss was filled with long-suppressed desire, strong and lingering.
Xu Nuo's legs went limp from his kiss and her arms couldn't help but wrap around his neck.
He didn't let her go until her lips were swollen and she was almost deprived of oxygen.
Xu Nuo's cheeks were flushed. He covered his wildly beating heart with both hands, trying to calm himself.
Lu Chen smiled and lowered his head to continue kissing her.
"Wait, wait..." Xu Nuo put his hand on his chest, "I almost forgot about the important matter."
"Um?"
"You're back so late. Have you eaten yet? I'll make you some porridge."
"I've eaten. You don't have to worry." His rough fingertips stroked her eyebrows. "You've lost a lot of weight, haven't you eaten well?"
"I've been a bit busy at work lately, and it's normal to worry and work hard." Xu Nuo looked up at him with a gentle smile on her lips, "Lu Chen, I miss you, very much, very much..."
"Me too." Lu Chen's thumb brushed across the corner of her wet lips, his voice hoarse, "Me too, there's not a day that I don't miss you."
Lu Chen picked up Xu Nuo again and went upstairs, his military boots making steady sounds on the stairs.
The bedroom door was pushed open by his shoulder and then closed heavily. Xu Nuo felt his body falling backwards and his back sank into the soft bed.
The light from the bedside softened his cold brows. Xu Nuo had a smile on his face. She saw him unbuttoning his shirt one by one and heard the sound of the metal buckles on his belt clinking.
He leaned over and pressed forward, his calloused palm stroking her waist, causing her shoulders to tremble slightly.
Lu Chen's eyes darkened and he buried his head in her fair and graceful neck.
Xu Nuo's chuckle suddenly turned into a hum, and her fingers sank into his neat short hair.
His kiss spread down...Xu Nuo suddenly arched his body, and his nails left several red marks on his back.
"Gently...gently..." Her protests became fragmented.
Lu Chen held her waist even tighter, and beads of sweat dripped down his chin.
His taut neck and bulging muscles were all soaked with sweat and glistened. When he was about to soar into the sky, he suddenly lowered his head and kissed her lips, swallowing all her whimpers.
Xu Nuo's eyes were blurry, and she seemed to see that his usually cold eyebrows were tinged with lust, which was more moving than the moonlight outside the window.
The early morning sunlight poured into the bedroom through the curtains, and Xu Nuo opened his eyes in Lu Chen's arms.
The corners of her eyes still had the blush from last night, the corners of her lips unconsciously raised a sweet arc, and her whole body rubbed against his arms like a sated cat.
Lu Chen lowered his head and pecked her lips lightly: "Are you awake? Did you sleep well last night?"
"Good~better than ever before."
Lu Chen smiled, let go of her, got off the bed and grabbed the clothes on the floor.
Xu Nuo saw him get up, and he also turned over and sat up: "Don't you want to rest for a while? Aren't you tired after just coming back from a business trip?"
"Well, I'm not tired. I have to go back to the army." Lu Chen took out a set of clean clothes from the cabinet and put them on neatly. "I'll go buy breakfast for you in the cafeteria. Hurry up and wash up."
The sheet that Xu Nuo was wrapped in slipped off, revealing a few red marks on his shoulders: "Where have you been these past two months? Will you go there again in the future?"
"I can't discuss military secrets in detail. I can only tell you that this is an important project."
Xu Nuo nodded in understanding and didn't ask any more questions.
Ten minutes later, she got dressed, washed up and went downstairs.
Golden fried eggs, steaming buns and soy milk were already placed on the table.
The two of them ate breakfast quietly, occasionally looking up at each other and chatting about the trivialities of daily life, a little sense of happiness spreading in their hearts.
After breakfast, the two went out together.
Xu Nuo walked briskly in front, and Lu Chen followed behind, his eyes following his wife's figure gently...
When arriving at the hospital, Xu Nuo ran into Wang Fang first.
"Are you in such a good mood today?" Wang Fang saw that she was in high spirits, which was different from the past.
"I slept well last night." Xu Nuo greeted casually.
Wang Fang's eyes fell on her neck, and seeing the suspicious red mark, she smiled and said, "Is your man back?"
"Ah?" Xu Nuo's ears suddenly turned red, and he raised his hand to touch his neck. He thought that he might have been a little too indulgent last night... He even forgot to remind him not to leave marks on his neck.
"I understand, I understand... A short separation is better than a new marriage." Wang Fang said with a smile.
"Sister Wang, I'm so embarrassed by what you said." Xu Nuo blushed.
"Why should you be ashamed? We are all experienced people, we can understand..."
"What can you understand?" Ling Sheng came over with a notebook, and asked casually after hearing what they said.
"Nothing... nothing." Xu Nuo responded quickly.
"Morning meeting time." He patted the notebook and documents in his hand, "Come in. There is an important announcement to be made at the meeting today."
