Noticing the man's gaze, Jiang Jinxiu patted his hand: "You eat too."
Gu Xichen then joined in the eating.
Jiang Jinxiu finished eating quickly, and there was still a lot of food left in the box. After Gu Xichen was sure that his wife could not eat anymore, he quickly finished the rest.
After clearing away the dishes, Gu Xichen took Jiang Jinxiu to the guesthouse closest to the military base.
When completing the formalities, Gu Xichen even showed his marriage certificate to the receptionist before she allowed him to go upstairs.
Time always flies when you're with someone.
When Jiang Jinxiu woke up again, it was already eight o'clock in the evening. It was already dark outside.
Gu Xichen returned from outside, lit a candle and placed it on the bedside table, quietly watching Jiang Jinxiu in her sleep.
At this moment, she was quiet and still, like a porcelain doll.
Jiang Jinxiu frowned, feeling some discomfort in her eyes, and instinctively tried to turn to the other side to block the light.
But as soon as she moved, she froze.
Memories of the afternoon flooded back, and Jiang Jinxiu blushed, unable to resist covering her burning cheeks with her hands.
"Heh~" came the man's low chuckle.
Jiang Jinxiu opened her fingers, and the two looked at each other.
Gu Xichen sat on the edge of the bed, propping his face up with one hand, looking at her intently.
Jiang Jinxiu subconsciously closed her fingers again.
With one hand, she held the blanket tightly, covering herself completely, including her head.
Gu Xichen knew his wife was shy. He looked at her and chuckled softly, "Awake?"
Jiang Jinxiu's voice came from under the covers: "Mmm..."
Gu Xichen looked at the little woman who was completely huddled under the covers, then moved a few more inches closer, raising his eyebrows slightly. His tone was full of doting affection and helplessness: "Don't cover your head completely. Doesn't it make it hard to breathe?"
This young woman used to be quite bold, but now she's become shy.
A woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea; he couldn't understand it.
Just spoil them.
He helped her lift the blanket over her head and held her in his arms.
Are you feeling unwell?
Jiang Jinxiu was both embarrassed and annoyed, and couldn't help but push him: "You still ask!"
The culprit has the nerve to ask, sigh~ why is it always her who suffers in the end.
Men really can't go hungry.
Gu Xichen chuckled, and when he met Jiang Jinxiu's somewhat resentful gaze, his eyes softened even more.
"Okay, it's all my fault."
Jiang Jinxiu didn't speak; she rested her head on the man's chest.
She is enjoying her time now, feeling a sense of peace and tranquility.
She wouldn't get angry no matter how a man treated her.
Because she knew that he always had her in his heart.
Everything from my past life is enough to prove it.
It's just that they haven't been together for so long this time, and she's not quite used to it yet.
After a moment of tenderness, Gu Xichen cupped her fair face in his hands and said, "Wife, go wash up and then we'll eat."
Jiang Jinxiu blushed and nodded: "Mm."
For a moment she forgot about her physical condition, and as soon as she got up, she collapsed again.
Gu Xichen quickly steadied her: "Wife, why do you seem to have less energy than before? It seems you need to exercise more."
Jiang Jinxiu pinched his arm in protest, but the man's arm was full of hard muscles and she couldn't twist it at all.
It even drew ridicule from men.
"Carry me to wash up!"
Jiang Jinxiu's mouth was puffed up with anger.
She would never tell him that after each encounter, she would soak in the spiritual spring water in her spatial dimension, which was why her body recovered relatively quickly.
Without a word of complaint, the man carried her to the bathroom.
Watching the man personally brush her teeth and wash her face, his earnest and devout expression was captivating.
Jiang Jinxiu's anger gradually dissipated.
Gu Xichen affectionately pinched the tip of her nose: "Wife, I bought your favorite braised pork ribs."
He shouldn't have mentioned it, because once he did, Jiang Jinxiu actually felt a bit hungry.
The two ate and chatted at the same time.
Jiang Jinxiu told Gu Xichen everything that had happened at home recently.
Gu Xichen listened quietly to the news. When he heard that the house was to be demolished and rebuilt, he regretted not checking the details before buying it.
It was a waste of money; I should have just bought a plot of land for building purposes in the first place.
Jiang Jinxiu said it was okay, at least the house was close to the old house, so if anything happened, she could take care of Gu Laoda and Gu Laoer, and her mother-in-law wouldn't have to go too far to see her grandchildren.
Before we knew it, it was eleven o'clock.
Jiang Jinxiu was worried that Gu Xichen would have to rush back to the army, so she quickly helped him pack his things.
The things her mother brought, as well as what she prepared herself, were all in the luggage she brought.
She was taking things out of her duffel bag one by one and putting them into another bag.
Seeing his wife bustling around, Gu Xichen looked at her with some confusion: "Wife, what are you doing?"
"I'll help you pack your things. Aren't you going back to the army?" Jiang Jinxiu explained matter-of-factly.
Gu Xichen took her hand: "No need, I've already taken leave. I'll stay here with you tonight and go back tomorrow morning."
Jiang Jinxiu was surprised; she had assumed he was going home that night.
She was prepared to stay out all night alone.
After all, the military is quite strict.
It seems that their military leaders are quite humane.
Jiang Jinxiu hugged his broad waist, rested her head on his chest, and quietly listened to his heartbeat: "It's so good."
She especially loved holding him quietly like this, listening to his heartbeat, as proof that he was still alive and that they were both alright.
"Honey, you should rest well. I'll pack my things myself tomorrow." Gu Xichen bent down and hugged Jiang Jinxiu's slender waist, resting his chin on the top of her head.
Jiang Jinxiu suddenly turned her head to look at him: "Husband, do you know how good you really are?"
He's handsome, considerate, and always puts her first.
She realized she seemed to love him even more.
Gu Xichen suddenly froze, as if he had been frozen in place.
It took him a while to come to his senses. He let go of her, faced her, and looked straight at her: "Wife, what did you just call me? Say it again."
When Jiang Jinxiu saw that the man didn't react, she wondered what was wrong.
Seeing his reaction, she couldn't help but smile. She looked back at him, her eyes filled with affection: "Husband, husband..."
Hearing those repeated calls of "husband" made Gu Xichen's heart tremble.
"Wife, can you call me that from now on?"
He was seeking personal gain.
Jiang Jinxiu looked at him with amusement. This man really knew how to push his luck.
"It depends on your performance."
"I will definitely do my best. If I don't do well, tell me and I will correct it, okay?"
"Um."
Seeing his coquettish manner, Jiang Jinxiu's heart melted completely.
