Chapter 107 A Kiss of Reassurance [Update]

What Jiang Rou wants to smell is not the scent of cheating perfume.

Let’s not talk about Zhou Chongshan’s personality. He is very responsible and never looks askance at women. It is absolutely impossible for him to cheat.

Even if we take a step back, there are no women on this island who would wear perfume.

What Jiang Rou wanted to ask was what Zhou Chongshan had done.

She is a food blogger with a very keen sense of smell.

Plus the nourishment of Lingquan Creek water in recent days.

Jiang Rou's five senses have been enhanced. Sometimes she can hear very subtle sounds and smell very faint scents.

For example - the smell of gunpowder.

It's gunpowder.

Jiang Rou smelled a slightly pungent smell of gunpowder on Zhou Chongshan's body.

a moment.

She grabbed Zhou Chongshan's military uniform, raised her slender white neck, and asked nervously.

"You went to clear mines?"

That whole night, Jiang Rou could not let go of the uneasiness in her heart.

She advised Zhou Xiaochuan not to worry, but she couldn't stop worrying herself.

Jiang Rou racked her brains to recall the plot of the original novel, wondering if the original novel mentioned island mine clearance.

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remember.

First of all, this happened before the original owner died.

In the original text, the story begins with the heroine's rebirth on Shanghai Island, and the mine-clearing operation is probably over, so it is not mentioned.

On the other hand, when Jiang Rou first read the original novel, she just randomly skipped chapters.

She watched the plot of the secondary CP Song Qingqian more seriously than the male and female protagonists.

So she really couldn't remember many things that happened to Zhou Chongshan, and she didn't know whether the original text mentioned that Zhou Chongshan participated in the mine clearance operation.

besides.

Jiang Rou's greater worry is that her appearance has produced a huge butterfly effect.

Zhou Chongshan's life trajectory was also completely changed.

Rather than being the world in the original novel, this world could be better defined as another parallel world.

The two worlds have similarities, but also many differences.

Jiang Rou was worried that Zhou Chongshan, who had always been the protagonist in the original story, might really get into danger or an explosion.

What happened next.

Jiang Rou didn't dare to think about it.

At this moment.

Under the dim light.

When Jiang Rou smelled the smell of gunpowder on Zhou Chongshan, her whole body tensed up and her heart beat so fast that it almost jumped out of her throat.

Zhou Chongshan was surprised, "Wife, you know?"

"You really went?"

Jiang Rou clenched her fingers even tighter, digging her nails into her palms so hard that they almost left marks.

Her expression at this moment was very similar to that of Zhao Guifen, who had hurried over after learning about the explosion, with a pale face.

The moods of military wives are indeed the same.

Zhou Chongshan looked at Jiang Rou's visible nervousness and the worried look that kept scanning him.

He felt distressed.

He hurriedly held his delicate wife in his arms.

The broad palm holds tightly.

The two of them were close together.

He tried to soothe Jiang Rou's worries by using intimate physical contact.

Zhou Chongshan explained aloud.

"Wife, the smell of gunpowder on me is because I had target practice today and I fired a gun. It's the smell of gunpowder from the bullets."

"I didn't tell you about the mine clearance because I was afraid you would worry and think too much."

"I am not responsible for the mine clearance operation. It has been handed over to someone else."

Jiang Rou didn't believe it immediately, but asked again.

"real?"

"Really." Zhou Zhongshan promised solemnly, and continued to explain, "This area not only has landmines, but also bombs. It is not something that ordinary people can do to dismantle those things. It requires professionalism. There is someone more professional than me, and he is in charge."

Zhou Chongshan explained half of the story and also hid the other half.

When Zhou Chongshan was on the battlefield, he actually learned how to clear mines and defuse bombs.

Others may look rough, but they are actually careful.

He has strong learning and hands-on abilities.

At the beginning, the higher-ups did want to assign the mine-clearing task to Zhou Chongshan.

But someone volunteered to be released.

Take over this dangerous task.

And that person is indeed more suitable from a technical point of view.

That's why the leader changed his mind.

Zhou Chongshan didn't want to talk about these details, for fear that Jiang Rou would worry even more.

After listening to Zhou Chongshan's explanation, Jiang Rou thought about it carefully and seemed to think it made some sense.

Her tense body finally relaxed slowly.

My heart relaxed and my body went limp.

She was a little exhausted.

Fortunately, Zhou Chongshan's hand was supporting my waist, so my body did not slide to the ground.

Jiang Rou was shocked.

He asked slowly.

"Who was assigned to be in charge of the mine clearance operation? Can you tell me this? It won't involve any military secrets, right? If you can't tell me, then don't tell me."

"Yes."

Zhou Chongshan looked at Jiang Rou's conflicted expression. Her pretty face became more and more expressive and she looked more and more like Zhou Xiaohua.

He tightened his arms, hugged Jiang Rou and put her arms around his legs, and they both sat down beside each other.

Then he whispered a name.

"It's He Donglai."

He Donglai, although only a company commander, is a graduate of an orthodox military academy and a genius with a very high IQ.

For some complex bombs, he could roughly draw a blueprint just by looking at their appearance.

When it comes to bomb disposal, there is no one in the entire army more suitable than him.

When Jiang Rou heard He Donglai's name, her eyes, which had calmed down a little, widened again.

It turned out to be He Donglai, and he was the one who took the initiative to ask for leave.

Is he... is he doing this... purely for technical reasons?

A hint of doubt flashed through Jiang Rou's heart.

The eyebrows are lightly pinched together.

Seeing this, Zhou Chongshan thought Jiang Rou was still worried, so he spoke in more detail.

"In fact, when the troops first arrived, they conducted a mine clearance operation to eliminate the danger in most areas before allowing the production teams and farmers to go to the fields. However, some bombs were hidden deep, and sometimes the equipment might not be able to detect them, so this explosion occurred."

Jiang Rou tilted her head back and listened quietly.

She understands the current level of technology. It's not that the military is not doing well in some things, but it is indeed due to technological limitations.

Zhou Chongshan also said.

"This time, the operation will be more detailed and more careful to ensure the safety of people's property and lives. Not only in the fields, but also in the mountains and on the beaches..."

Speaking of the beach, Jiang Rou recalled some vague memories.

It is indeed mentioned in the original text.

This island has been ravaged by war and fierce naval battles have broken out on its coast.

So the most bombs fell on the beach.

Even though this is an island, no one rushes to the sea to improve their lives. After all, no one wants to take such a big risk.

"Don't worry, my dear. It will be completely over in a month, and some closed areas will be open to the public."

"Really?"

"Really, I promise, so can you rest assured?"

Zhou Chongshan lowered his eyes and stared at Jiang Rou who was standing so close to him.

Jiang Rou nodded gently.

After understanding the whole story, she was finally relieved.

but.

Zhou Chongshan's heart was pounding.
