"Wife, I have to go on a mission. I'll leave this afternoon and it'll take about a week. Can I ask Uncle Lin to take you back and stay for a few days?"
He didn't dare tell Shen Qingli that he wanted to go there on his own initiative, for fear that she would be unhappy.
His original intention was to take advantage of these two months to complete more tasks so that when the baby was about to be born, he could take more leave and spend more time with her.
But when the words came to her lips, she didn't know how to say them. She had to go on a mission and leave her alone at home with her pregnancy.
"Well, go ahead. No need for Uncle Lin to pick me up. I'm not going back. It's fine here."
Shen Qingli didn't feel uncomfortable at all. As early as when she knew Meng Xiao's identity and decided to join the army, she had mentally prepared herself for being apart from him more often.

"Meng Xiaoxiao, I find that you are becoming more and more emotional."
Shen Qingli hugged him back and patted his shoulders.
“When I’m with you, I always feel sorry for you. I feel like I haven’t given you much. I don’t have the companionship or money to give you.
I feel like I should be nicer to you, a little better, and I should be a little sentimental in front of you."
"Meng Xiaoxiao, thank you too. You're already very good."
“I’m not good enough.”
