Chapter 81 Only once
"When I was helping my man home, I met a comrade-in-arms, and he accidentally let out the news that the first place winner of Devil Week would be awarded a 28-inch bicycle."
Wen Ci thought something big had happened, and said calmly with a smile: "There's nothing to apologize for. The 28-inch truck is going to be given away as a reward."
Zhu Jing breathed a sigh of relief.
She wanted to stop her man from saying it, but her hand was a step too slow and she didn't cover her man's mouth. She licked her lips:
"But that person is well-known in the military region for his good intentions. I guess the whole northwest knows about it now..."
Wen Ci shrugged, not caring at all: "I know, so what?"
Seeing that Wen Ci was in a good mood, Zhu Jing changed the subject and asked, "Will Captain Huo come back for dinner tonight?"
Wen Ci shook his head: "I don't know."
She only asked whether Huo Jingyuan would come back tonight.
Didn't ask if he would come back for dinner.
"Let's not worry about him and eat first."
The sun was setting, and the romance of the sunset filled the entire sky. There were no lights installed in the yard, so they could only eat before sunset.
Amidst the laughter and joy, the setting sun gradually faded away.
Zhu Jing rolled up her sleeves and helped pick up the dishes on the table. Seeing Wen Ci also stood up, she said, "Let us do the dishes."
"No, no." Wen Ci shook his head. It was Sister Jing and the others who washed the dishes at noon. It would be bad to ask them to wash the dishes at night. "You are the birthday girl and you can't wash the dishes. Let me do it."
In her opinion, the birthday person doesn’t have to do any work on his or her birthday. He or she just needs to sit back and enjoy. It has been like this since she was a child.
"What birthday person or not?"
In the end, Wen Ci couldn't persuade his sisters and just helped to clean up the table. As the sky gradually darkened, they all went home.
The originally bustling yard became quiet after everyone left.
-
It's late at night.
When Huo Jingyuan came back from the military camp, he saw that only a kerosene lamp was on in the living room.
Wen Ci was sitting on the sofa watching an old TV series from the 1980s. When he heard the door open, he looked at him and asked, "Have you eaten?"
"have eaten."
As he spoke, Huo Jingyuan slowly took off his coat, revealing his muscular chest. The outline of his abdominal muscles could be vaguely seen below his waist and abdomen.
Wen Ci's eyes widened: "So direct?"
"Didn't you say you'd wait until tomorrow morning?"
Wen Ci curled up in the corner of the sofa, hugged himself tightly with both hands, made a gesture of resistance, and said anxiously: "No, I still have to go to work tomorrow?"
Huo Jingyuan approached step by step, and with his strong arms he lifted the person off the sofa. He looked down at the person in his arms with his deep eyes.
"You took advantage of my tiredness last night and made such a fuss?"
The man's voice was as deep as a beacon. He stroked her back with his fingertips and chuckled, "Today I have recovered my energy. Let's see if you dare to speak nonsense in the future."
Wen Ci quickly begged for mercy: "I was wrong, Captain Huo, I will never dare to talk nonsense again."
"If you are wrong, you must be punished."
Wen Ci gritted his teeth: "What if I'm not wrong?"
"Then educate him severely."
Wen Ci: “…”
It doesn't matter whether I am right or wrong.
There's no way to escape being taught a lesson tonight.
Wen Ci sighed softly, decided to give up resistance, and said firmly: "Only once!"
"not enough."
-
The night was still long and Wen Ci was tired and sleepy.
Until dawn, Huo Jingyuan saw that his wife had not yet woken up. Looking at Wen Ci's peaceful sleeping face, he couldn't help but stroke her eyebrows.
His movements were so gentle that no one was woken up.
Before getting out of bed, Huo Jingyuan pulled up the quilt, then went to the living room and called the hospital on the landline, asking for a day of wedding leave for Wen Ci.
