Within a day, news of Lu Xue'er's dismissal and the reasons for it would spread throughout Beijing's high society.
The Lu family has once again lost all face.
"Wife, are you sleepy?" Qin Yushen held Lin Xiaoxiao's hand, his tone both caring and cautious.
Lin Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at him, pulled her hand out of his, and said listlessly, "I'm so sleepy."
The most important thing was to drive back and get some sleep; she wasn't in the mood for flirting with him right now.
What was originally a simple action made Qin Yushen overthink it.
The alarm bells kept ringing in his mind. On the way back, one eye was fixed on the road ahead, while the other glanced at Lin Xiaoxiao, who was dozing off in the passenger seat.
Is his wife angry with him?
Is it because you think he's unclean?
Thinking of the arm that Lu Xue'er had accidentally touched when she pounced on him, Qin Yushen rubbed it hard, his face full of disgust.
If he weren't wearing a military uniform, he would have loved to take it off and throw it away.
"Wife, I'm sorry." He was too careless; otherwise, he wouldn't have been tricked by Lu Xue'er.
Although it won't have much of an impact on him, it's still quite disgusting.
If he's disgusted to this extent, then his wife must be even more disgusting.
It was his fault.
Qin Yu glanced at Lin Xiaoxiao, his face full of guilt.
Lin Xiaoxiao shifted her position, leaning her body towards the car door and turning her head to the side.
They adopted a posture of refusing to communicate.
Qin Yushen thought to himself: Oh no, my wife is really angry. How am I going to coax her?
In fact—
Lin Xiaoxiao smacked her lips, her eyes closed, having been fast asleep for who knows how long.
When they arrived home, the car stopped, and the braking inertia pulled Lin Xiaoxiao's body open. She groggily asked, "Are we here?"
"Hmm." Qin Yushen felt a little uneasy and wanted to do something to ease the feeling. "Wife, don't move, I'll open the door for you."
Just as he walked around to the front of the car, Lin Xiaoxiao pushed open the door and got out.
"What are you standing there for?" Lin Xiaoxiao asked, puzzled.
It's so late, why aren't you home sleeping? Why are you just standing at your doorstep?
In dim light, every movement and sound is more sensitive and clear than in daylight.
Qin Yushen could hear the slight impatience in her tone, so he could only temporarily put aside his complicated thoughts and follow her into the room.
Lin Xiaoxiao finished her quick wash with droopy eyelids, then crawled into bed and performed a feat of falling asleep in a second.
I didn't say a word the whole time, not because I didn't want to, but because I really couldn't bring myself to say it.
She was so tired, as if she hadn't slept in eight hundred years. Her body and brain kept screaming for rest and sleep, and she didn't want to think.
After she fell asleep, Qin Yushen couldn't sleep.
Lying in bed, listening to her even breathing, his thoughts began to wander uncontrollably, recalling Lin Xiaoxiao's strange behavior in the army and the change in her attitude towards him...
The more she thought about it, the emptier and more uneasy she felt, wondering if Lu Xue'er had upset her.
Or perhaps he spread rumors about single female comrades in the military, making her feel uncomfortable.
Qin Yushen barely slept all night. Just as he fell asleep, his biological clock forced him to wake up.
From falling asleep to waking up, it might take less than half an hour.
After getting up, I saw that Lin Xiaoxiao was still sleeping, so I didn't disturb her. Instead, I went to the kitchen to make breakfast.
Having had a good sleep, Lin Xiaoxiao was in a pretty good mood. She stretched, put on her coat, and went outside.
After a short while, she noticed that Qin Yushen was acting strangely.
He combed my hair, squeezed out the toothpaste, washed my face, and prepared six or seven different kinds of breakfast, bringing them to my table...
Lin Xiaoxiao: "......"
After taking a sip of porridge, he brought an egg to his mouth, saying, "The yolk is nutritious, let's eat it together."
She glanced at him with her small eyes and took a bite.
"Mutton pie, give me the leftovers if you can't finish them." Seeing that she had finished eating, Qin Yushen offered her another type of food.
Just as Lin Xiaoxiao was about to take it, he said, "Never mind, it's still a bit hot. I'll hold it for you, you can eat it."
I fed him spoonful by spoonful for about half an hour.
As they finished eating, Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't hold back any longer. She reached out and placed the back of her hand on his forehead, her expression serious.
Qin Yushen didn't move, just looked at her and asked, "What's wrong, wife?"
Lin Xiaoxiao stammered, "I don't have a fever."
Why are they acting so strangely today?
It's like a man who did something wrong outside and feels guilty when he gets home, wanting to do something to make amends.
Lin Xiaoxiao frowned and gave him a suspicious look.
Qin Yushen immediately wilted and lowered his head, saying, "Wife, I'm sorry."
"Tell me honestly what you did to wrong me." Lin Xiaoxiao sighed.
What did I do to wrong her?
Qin Yushen tried hard to organize his thoughts.
“I shouldn’t have allowed rumors about me and other female comrades to circulate in the military. I should have kept my distance from other female comrades and seriously and earnestly told everyone that I was already married.”
“I shouldn’t have let my guard down in the army, which led to what happened last night, making those with ulterior motives happy and making you, my wife, feel annoyed.”
"I promise that there will be no more rumors about me and any female comrades, and I will keep myself pure and upright. Even if the leader sends someone to summon me in the future, I will be 100% vigilant and will not give bad people any opportunity to take advantage of me."
"Finally..." Qin Yushen pitifully grasped Lin Xiaoxiao's hand, "Wife, I really know I was wrong."
It's his problem that he's letting those bad people and things affect his wife's mood and sleep.
