"Honey, you don't need to give me any. I still have some from last time, and this month's salary is coming in. I'll give it all to you then. There are many places at home where we need money, and I hardly need any while I'm in the army."
In the end, Jiang Jinxiu couldn't persuade him otherwise, so she had no choice but to put the money away again.
"Let's go for a walk to digest our food," Jiang Jinxiu suggested, looking at the man in front of her.
It's not dark outside yet; going out for a walk should be nice.
Gu Xichen raised his hand and grabbed Jiang Jinxiu's arm, pulling her into his embrace with a forceful pull.
He wrapped his arms tightly around Jiang Jinxiu's slender waist, rested his head on her shoulder, and whispered in her ear, "Wife, we don't necessarily have to go out to digest our food."
Gu Xichen's voice was husky yet alluring.
Jiang Jinxiu felt as if her ears were pregnant.
The man's warm breath enveloped me, making my ears burn and my face feel hot.
This man!
Really...
"You've been training all day, aren't you tired?"
tired?
This word doesn't exist in Gu Xichen's vocabulary, especially when Ruanyu is in his arms.
When his wife wasn't around, just thinking about her gave him boundless energy.
With his wife right in front of him, how could he possibly feel tired?
He tightened his grip even more, as if he wanted to devour her alive.
The man's body temperature is rising.
"Xichen, take a shower first."
"Wait."
After saying that, he picked up several kettles, turned around, and went out to fetch hot water.
Fortunately, the hot water room wasn't far away; it was just around the corner on the first floor.
Before long, Gu Xichen returned carrying several kettles of hot water.
He still prepared the hot water for her and checked the temperature before telling her to take a bath.
"Honey, the water's ready. Time for a bath."
Jiang Jinxiu didn't stand on ceremony and went straight inside.
Just when she thought Gu Xichen would take a bath with her, the man suddenly turned and walked out the door.
"Honey, you go wash first. I'm going out for a bit, I'll be right back."
As Jiang Jinxiu waited for the man to come in, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
She had thought that the man, who had been so eager just now, would take a bath with her.
After all, he had wanted to do that last night.
"where are you going?"
Hearing Jiang Jinxiu's somewhat disappointed tone, Gu Xichen turned around, looked at her, and smiled.
"Honey, are you reluctant to let me go? Do you want me to shower with you?"
Jiang Jinxiu, her thoughts exposed, glared at him with a hint of embarrassment and anger: "Dream on, if you're going to leave, then leave quickly."
With that, she slammed the bathroom door shut.
Gu Xichen looked at the closed toilet door, and his smile widened even more.
His wife is so cute.
Thinking of something, he quickened his pace and walked outside.
Jiang Jinxiu felt a pang of disappointment upon hearing the man close the door.
I became distracted while taking a shower.
They didn't hear the man go back into the house.
However, when she came out of the shower, she saw the man holding a large bouquet of roses, standing at the door waiting for her.
Her mood instantly brightened, her face breaking into a wide smile, and she quickly walked up to him, taking two steps at a time.
"So beautiful, how could you have thought of that..."
Jiang Jinxiu took the flowers from his hand, lowered her head to smell them again and again, and the smile on her face never stopped.
She never expected her husband to have this side to him, and gave him an approving look.
This was the first time in her past and present lives that she had received flowers, and roses from her own man at that.
I felt an overwhelming sense of happiness.
Seeing how much his wife loved it, Gu Xichen suddenly realized that Xu Yining was actually quite useful.
Yes, that's right.
Xu Yining told Gu Xichen about this idea.
Yunnan Province is a flower-producing region, and flowers are grown in many places here.
Finding flowers here is not difficult.
But for Gu Xichen, a straight-laced man, that thing was useless.
I just heard that after I came to Yunnan Province, they use flower petals to make flower cakes.
But today Xu Yining told him that girls all like flowers, so he thought of finding some for his wife.
Gu Xichen quickly took a shower and came out to find his wife still holding flowers and smiling.
A smirk played on his lips as he slowly approached his wife, hoping to get some benefits in return.
Just then, there was a rapid knocking on the door.
He frowned. This was a guesthouse. Who would have come here?
"Battalion Commander Gu, Battalion Commander Gu, open the door quickly, it's urgent..."
Just then, Orange jumped in through the window.
"Meow meow meow..."
Master, there are people outside.
Hearing that familiar voice, Gu Xichen's expression turned cold, and a surge of anger ignited within him.
The person outside the door was Xu Yining, whom he had just thought was useful.
Jiang Jinxiu looked up at the man who was so close to her, and nudged him: "He came to see you, go and see him."
The man's eyes darkened: "Wife, change your clothes first."
Both of them had just taken a shower and were wearing very little clothing, so it was not convenient for them to receive guests at this moment.
The guesthouse rooms are not large, and can be seen from the doorway.
Gu Xichen didn't want others to see this side of his wife.
The two quickly changed their clothes.
Gu Xichen reluctantly opened the door.
The corridor was dimly lit, but faces were still visible.
Xu Yining was standing at the door, waiting anxiously, beads of sweat dripping from his pores.
"Battalion Commander Gu, the leadership wants you to return to your unit immediately."
