Their breathing was erratic.
Gu Xichen's forehead was covered in sweat as he restrained himself and held back. He said through gritted teeth, "Wife, I really want to be with you forever and never be apart."
"Alright, there's plenty of time in the future."
Jiang Jinxiu comforted him.
She took out some food from her luggage, and also took some compressed biscuits from her spatial storage, and filled a pot with spiritual spring water.
"These are the things I originally wanted to leave here so we could eat together. But since you have something to do, you can take them all. I'll head back now."
She then pointed to the compressed biscuits and said, "Keep these biscuits. You can take them with you on missions. Although they are dry, they are very filling and keep you full for a long time."
Gu Xichen took the things his wife gave him; they were heavy and plentiful.
He rummaged through his wife's luggage, but there weren't that many things. She had given him most of what she brought. Where did she get these from?
His eyes unconsciously darkened.
If his wife doesn't say anything, he'll pretend he doesn't know anything, but he still wants to remind her.
He glanced at the oranges that had just arrived on the table: "Honey, where did you get so many things? Did you go out today? From now on, take it with you wherever you go, and don't let it get too wild."
Jiang Jinxiu's heart skipped a beat. Oh no, she had been so worried about him that she had forgotten he had seen everything that was out in the open.
She looked at him with some unease.
Seeing the unease in his wife's eyes, Gu Xichen placed his rough fingers between her lips: "Wife, you can say it if you want, or it's okay if you don't. Just be more careful in the future and protect yourself, okay?"
Jiang Jinxiu felt a warm glow in her heart. She held his fingers in her hand, stood on tiptoe, kissed the corner of his mouth, and said softly, "Thank you, Xichen. Please be careful. The water in the kettle is the same as before, remember to drink it."
Jiang Jinxiu stared intently at his face. This man was always so thoughtful and considerate.
Although the time they spent together was short, at least she came over and saw him, didn't she?
She was very content.
Gu Xichen lowered his head and kissed her forehead: "Wife, be careful on your way back. Next time, we'll have another three hundred rounds of battle."
He whispered the last sentence in her ear.
Jiang Jinxiu's face instantly turned bright red, and she pinched his waist with a hint of gritted teeth.
But in the end, it all came to nothing.
The man's body was all muscle, hard and firm.
Xu Yining waited for a long time, but Gu Xichen didn't come out. He became extremely anxious and started banging on the door again: "Battalion Commander, my good Battalion Commander, hurry up..."
The two people inside ignored Xu Yining outside the door.
But Orange couldn't stand his noise, so she opened the door and barked at him.
"Meow meow meow..." What are you all yelling about? It's so noisy! The master has finally reunited with the male master, and you all send him on missions again!
Orange was yelling so loudly, it was as if she was about to go up and fight him.
Gu Xichen had been staring at Chengzi ever since she walked out and opened the door.
He always knew it was special, but now it seems it's more than just special.
He had previously discovered that it seemed to understand human speech, and now it can open doors by itself and even talk back to people.
This thing has become sentient.
However, with his wife by his side, he felt a little more at ease.
Xu Yining was surprised to find a cat coming out and snarling at him.
He took two steps back, looking at Chengzi warily: "Sister-in-law, is this your cat? It's so fierce. Look at it, it's like a dog."
Orange got even angrier when Xu Yining called it a dog.
"orange."
Jiang Jinxiu called out to it, afraid that it would really pounce on it.
Upon hearing Jiang Jinxiu's call, Chengzi instantly suppressed all her aura and obediently sat down beside her.
His attitude changed completely, leaving Xu Yining speechless.
"Sister-in-law, this cat..."
Jiang Jinxiu explained, "It's shy and acts like this when it sees strangers."
"Meow meow meow..." Master, he's too noisy.
Jiang Jinxiu held it in her arms, stroking its fur, without saying anything. In fact, she was reassuring Chengzi in her mind: "Chengzi, it's okay, he just had an emergency."
Gu Xichen wasn't as easy to talk to as Jiang Jinxiu. He went straight over and punched Xu Yining: "Very well, I'll remember you."
He can't run ten kilometers with the load on.
Xu Yining was a beat slow to realize that his battalion commander seemed angry, but he was completely baffled: "Battalion commander, I didn't do anything to you, did I?"
He was supposed to have meat tonight, thanks to his wife's initiative, which he had been looking forward to for a long time, but he ruined it like this.
How could he not remember him?
That's impossible.
I don't know when I'll be able to eat meat again, let alone get my wife to take the initiative.
Thinking about it, Gu Xichen was a little annoyed: "Go back and carry the weight for ten kilometers."
"No, no, Battalion Commander, I..."
Xu Yining wanted to say something, but Gu Xichen glanced at him, and he swallowed back all the words he was about to say.
Thinking of everyone who was inexplicably punished to run laps yesterday, and now it was his turn, he had no words to express his bitterness.
Xu Yining, with a bitter expression, turned to leave.
Jiang Jinxiu called out to him and handed him an apple: "Here, thank you for your hard work."
Xu Yining's eyes widened: "Sister-in-law, I can't take this."
This apple is burning hot.
He just angered Battalion Commander Gu, and now he's taking his sister-in-law's apple. Does he think ten kilometers isn't long enough?
He wouldn't dare accept it.
Thinking about it, he decided to return the apple.
Gu Xichen glared at him: "Take it if it's given to you."
After watching the two leave, Jiang Jinxiu locked the door from the inside.
After finally reuniting, they had to separate again after only two days, leaving Jiang Jinxiu feeling somewhat disappointed.
But when she thought about her husband's status and the fact that they would be separated for long periods of time in the future, she knew she had to get used to it.
"Meow meow meow..." Master, the male master is going on another mission. Are we going back tomorrow?
Jiang Jinxiu stroked its fur: "Yes, we have to go back. Since we can't spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with him, let's go back to our village and spend it with Grandma and the others. That would be nice."
"Meow meow meow..." Master, Master, can we go back a few days later? Orange went out today and found a lot of good things here.
Jiang Jinxiu perked up; it had been a long time since Chengzi had mentioned anything good.
When we talked about it last time, they had quite a good harvest.
"Where?"
"Meow meow meow..." Master, on the mountain.
It's up in the mountains again.
"You went up the mountain again in such a short time?"
"Meow meow meow..." Master, have you forgotten my abilities?
Jiang Jinxiu was taken aback.
That's true, we can't treat oranges like ordinary animals anymore.
It's incredibly capable.
"Are you going out for two days? Should we check out tomorrow, or stay here longer?"
"Meow meow meow..." Master, you can live in the space.
Jiang Jinxiu tapped her forehead; how could she have forgotten?
