Gu Chijin took out the kitchen dishes and washed them.
I shook the water droplets off my hands and walked into the bedroom, and saw Shi Qi sleeping soundly with his head tilted against the headboard.
Gu Chijin paused and burst out laughing.
He walked forward, gently supported Shi Qi's head, and let her lie down.
Gu Chijin's eyes were filled with intoxicating love.
Pulling the quilt over his chest, he raised his body and kissed the corner of Shiqi's lips.
Shi Qi was sleeping so soundly that he didn't realize that someone was taking advantage of him.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, he looked deeply for a long time.
Gu Chijin got up and closed the door, washed his hands, returned to the room, hugged Shi Qi, and prepared to lie down together for a while.
The two of them slept until late at night.
Even the trip to Jiang Chen's house was delayed.
Fortunately, when the couple was sleeping, the lights were not on in the house. Jiang Chen and Ji Zhang came back from the army and passed by Gu's yard. They took a look and found nothing unusual, so they just passed by and went back home.
Jiang Chen and Ji Zhang have been extremely exhausted over the past ten days.
Knowing that Gu Chijin was in trouble, the two followed the troops and searched the mountains and forests for two or three days, but found nothing except some buried bloodstains.
For this reason, the two were even more worried about Gu Chijin.
Jiang Chen even went to the political commissar's office twice a day to inquire about the progress in the back mountain.
Since Gu Chijin was involved, Political Commissar Xu was also very concerned about the matter.
He kept asking people to keep an eye on it, but in the end the police station couldn't find anything after five or six days of investigation, and Political Commissar Xu was helpless.
Jiang Chen was so anxious that a bunch of blisters appeared in his mouth, and even drinking water hurt.
The further it got, the more anxious Jiang Chen became, especially worried that something serious might have happened to Gu Chijin.
He has made so many contributions to the army, and he cannot let himself be sacrificed because of personal grudges.
Ji Zhang and Gu Chijin's brotherly relationship is not as deep as Jiang Chen's, but seeing Jiang Chen anxious all day long, he feels bad too.
After all, this time it was Gu Chijin and his wife who were in trouble together, and Shi Qi had saved his own son before.
He also helped his wife make money to overcome the difficulties at home.
If Jiang Ling knew that Shi Qi couldn't come back this time, she would be so sad.
The two men had different thoughts, but the same worries.
Everyone hopes that Gu Chijin and his wife will be fine this time.
When Jiang Chen returned home, Jiang Haoyun, who was playing in the yard, saw him and immediately rushed over to him, smiling and calling him "Dad".
Jiang Chen forced a smile, picked up his son, and walked into the house with a worried look on his face.
Bai Xiaohua was cooking in the kitchen. When she heard the noise, she ran out full of hope.
When he saw him, he immediately asked:
"How is it? Is there any news today?"
Seeing Jiang Chen shaking his head, Bai Xiaohua forced a smile and consoled himself:
"It's a good thing there's no news. Who knows where Deputy Battalion Commander Gu and Sister Shi were rescued.
They are such nice people, I'm sure everything will be fine this time.
Come on, the food is almost ready. Wash your son's hands and get ready for dinner."
Looking at his wife's hurried footsteps, Jiang Chen sighed, feeling helpless.
At the dinner table, Jiang Chen looked at the plate of stir-fried cabbage in front of him, hesitated for a long time, and said:
"I'll go to the police station tomorrow to inquire about the situation.
I don’t know what happened, but the day before yesterday, the police station suddenly called back all the staff.
I guess it might be something like Brother Gu and the others’ situation.”
Bai Xiaohua became alert when he heard this:
"Have you found Shi Meizi and the others?"
Although Jiang Chen wanted to nod, based on his observation, the possibility was very small.
"I don't know either. I'll ask tomorrow."
Not wanting to dash his wife's hopes right now, Jiang Chen sighed, frowned, and started eating.
"Mom, I want some soup."
Bai Xiaohua wanted to say something, but Jiang Haoyun's childish voice interrupted her.
In front of his son, Bai Xiaohua could only smile and use a spoon to serve egg drop soup to Jiang Haoyun.
When serving the soup, Bai Xiaohua deliberately scooped the part with more egg drops into his son's bowl.
When Shiqi woke up, it was pitch black all around.
Shi Qi stopped panicking when he felt the man's strong arm around his waist.
She didn't like this kind of darkness, but with Gu Chijin by her side, she wouldn't panic no matter how much she disliked it.
Listening to the steady breathing of the man above his head, Shi Qi leaned into his arms.
After thinking for a moment, she reached out and put her hand on his waist.
As soon as Shi Qi moved, Gu Chijin woke up.
When she opened her eyes, Gu Chijin heard her breathing become heavier and knew that she had woken up.
Turning on the lights in the room, Gu Chijin hugged Shi Qi in his arms and said in a hoarse voice:
"Do you want to sleep a little longer?"
Shi Qi hugged his narrow waist and shook his head:
"Not sleeping anymore. But I want to lie down for a while."
Gu Chijin's embrace was warm and secure, and Shi Qi rubbed his chest lovingly.
Looking at her kitten-like movements, Gu Chijin's heart softened and he hugged her tighter.
“I can’t go to Sister Jiang’s place tonight.
Let’s go tomorrow.”
Holding Gu Chijin and absorbing the fiery warmth from his body, Shi Qi felt like he was holding a big heater, happy and comfortable.
Gu Chijin hummed lightly:
“No rush, tomorrow will be the same.
If you feel tired, let’s rest early today.”
"By the way, are you going to the army tomorrow?"
Shi Qi suddenly remembered that when Li Shaoyu left, he did not tell Gu Chijin whether he would go to the army in the next few days.
Gu Chijin lowered his head and kissed her forehead:
"I have to go back to the army tomorrow to explain the situation to Political Commissar Xu.
Explain the situation clearly, and I'll take some time off to come back and accompany you."
Shiqi hesitated a little:
"Will your boss approve your request for leave?
Also, when you go back this time, won't Political Commissar Xu ask you about Qu Feng?"
“No.
Even if Political Commissar Xu asks, I have a way to explain it back, so don't worry."
After hearing Gu Chijin say this, Shi Qixin felt a little relieved.
The couple lay in bed for a while. Shi Qi felt hungry, so Gu Chijin got up to cook.
They brought back noodles and rice. Shi Qi felt that cooking was laborious, so he and Gu Chijin each made a bowl of egg noodles. After eating, washing up, and cleaning the kitchen, they went to rest.
After taking a nap in the afternoon, they both woke up very early the next morning.
After breakfast, Gu Chijin set off for the army, while Shi Qi stayed at home to pack up and take things to Bai Xiaohua's house later.
As soon as Gu Chijin stepped out of the Gu family's door, he saw Jiang Chen standing on the path with a look of astonishment on his face.
Ji Zhang followed Jiang Chen and was also shocked when he saw Gu Chijin suddenly appear in the military family compound.
“Gu Chi Jin!!!
When did you come back!!!"
