Li Huai took in Zhao Qinglan's reaction.
He was very pleased with her expression and asked with a smile, "Are you satisfied?" He was surprised that he could say such a thing.
Zhao Qinglan coughed violently, almost choking herself. How could he say such profound words? Was this still the Li Huai she knew?
Seeing her cough, Li Huai strode over to her and patted her back to help her catch her breath.
"I was just joking with you." He regretted his rashness a little; look how scared he had been.
The visual impact of Li Huai's arrival on Zhao Qinglan was even greater.
The overwhelming male hormones made her blush and her heart race.
Taking a deep breath, she tried to keep her eyes from wandering as she asked, "Didn't you want a back scrub?"
"Yes, you need to rub it."
After saying that, he turned around and lay down there.
Zhao Qinglan picked up a bath towel and began to carefully scrub Li Huai's back.
That's right, it's a back rub. She kept reminding herself to stay calm, stay calm, not to look around or say anything out of line, and to finish the rub quickly and leave.
Silently reciting, Zhao Qinglan stared intently at the piece in front of her, from top to bottom.
His back is really broad, and his waist looks good too.
She didn't look around or say anything inappropriate, but she still couldn't help but start making judgments in her mind.
Food and sex are basic human needs; she was just an ordinary woman who had lived an extra life.
Faced with such a feast for the eyes, one would instinctively react in this way.
"I'm done scrubbing, you can continue washing now." After saying that, she put down the bath towel and turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, Li Huai grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.
Caught off guard, Zhao Qinglan crashed directly into Li Huai's chest, her nose stinging from the impact, and she almost burst into tears.
"Qinglan, I miss you so much," Li Huai sighed, resting his chin on her head.
Zhao Qinglan did not react at all.
When he looked down, he saw that her eyes were already red, and he was shocked.
"Qinglan, I...I'm sorry." He stammered, realizing he had been too reckless.
Zhao Qinglan rubbed her nose and complained, "You bumped into me and hurt me." Then she turned and ran away.
As the door closed in front of him, Li Huai made no move this time.
"So, it's just because I bumped into her and hurt her?" Li Huai murmured.
She ran back into the house, her clothes still damp, but Zhao Qinglan didn't care.
Sitting on the bed, she covered her face with her hands for a long time without letting go.
This is so embarrassing, absolutely so embarrassing!
When Li Huai hugged her just now, she accidentally saw a certain place.
Li Huai took a quick shower, especially when he thought about Zhao Qinglan waiting, which made him even faster.
After washing himself clean, he came back wearing only a vest and trousers, not minding the cold at all; he really is young and energetic.
As soon as he entered the room, before he could even speak, Zhao Qinglan had already stood up and walked out.
"You're done washing up, then I'll go wash up."
Seeing her flee in panic, Li Huai's smile deepened.
You can escape the monk but you cannot escape the temple.
Tonight, with no mother-in-law or sister-in-law occupying their bed, and he'll lock the door in a bit, he's sure nothing can disturb his good time. He's been looking forward to this for a long time.
Thinking about what she might face in a moment, Zhao Qinglan was still uneasy, even though she had mentally prepared herself.
She dawdled through her washing and brushing before finally going back to her room.
As soon as she entered the room, Li Huai went over and plugged in the latch.
He then looked at her with burning eyes. "Qinglan, let's sleep."
"Mmm," Zhao Qinglan replied in a barely audible voice.
The next second, Li Huai picked her up and put her on the bed, pressing his entire body against hers.
With his clothes removed, the room was filled with spring light, and Li Huai was about to make his move.
Someone was banging on the outer gate of the courtyard.
"Li Huai, Li Huai, come out quickly!"
Who is this person who ruined my good deed? Li Huai had no choice but to act, and didn't want to pay any attention to it.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Qinglan, who was beneath him, suddenly pushed him.
"It seems to be Commander Sun."
Li Huai finally regained his senses.
Suppressing his anger, he got out of bed, put on his pants and coat, and went outside.
If the commander can't give a clear explanation today, he'll hold a grudge!
Zhao Qinglan was also puzzled as to why Sun Shengli wanted to see Li Huai so late at night.
After waiting for a few minutes, Li Huai returned to the house, his expression changed, his brows furrowed and his expression cold.
"Li Huai, what's wrong?" Zhao Qinglan also became nervous.
As he dressed, he replied, "The Russians in the north are up to something again. The regimental commander has to stay behind, and I have to lead the troops out on a mission."
Although Zhao Qinglan didn't remember the country fighting with the north, hearing this still made her heart ache.
Perhaps there won't be any major conflicts, but there will still be minor skirmishes, she just doesn't know it. The more she thinks about it, the more worried she becomes.
"Qinglan, I'm sorry, I don't know how many days it will take me to get back from this mission, so I'm leaving the family in your care." He said apologetically.
Zhao Qinglan had thought about this the moment she decided to become a military wife.
But even though she thought about it, when she actually had to face it, she still felt incredibly upset.
"Li Huai, you must come back unharmed. My children and I are waiting for you at home."
Holding her shoulder, Li Huai nodded. "Don't worry, I'll be fine."
After putting on her coat and watching Li Huai leave, Zhao Qinglan stood in the courtyard for a long time without moving.
"Qinglan, it's cold outside, come inside." Before she knew it, Wu Mei was already standing next to her.
As a fellow military wife, she could best understand Zhao Qinglan's feelings at this moment.
