After dinner, seeing that Xinyi was having fun with the children, Su Jingjing didn't bring up the matter from yesterday again.
Hearing the commotion in the yard, Yuanyuan had an idea. "Mom, I want to go down and play for a while."
Su Jingjing glanced at the clock on the wall; it wasn't even seven o'clock yet. It would be good to let them go downstairs to digest their food.
An'an naturally followed her younger sister downstairs.
After the two children left, Zhong Xinyi felt a little more nervous.
"Jingjing, did you invite me over for dinner today because you have something to tell me?"
Su Jingjing shook her head and smiled, "I heard from A-Ting that you're going to have a military exercise soon. Since you won't be in the army then, we'll have fewer chances to meet."
Xinyi was the first good friend she made after coming here, and she really liked this girl.
Chung Hsin-yi's nervousness gradually subsided. "I'll come over to play with the kids when I have time. Just don't mind if I don't want to be a bother, Sister Jingjing."
The two women smiled at each other, their sisterly affection unspoken.
Just then, there was a noise at the door. Zhong Xinyi knew that Commander Li had returned, so she quickly got up to say goodbye.
Su Jingjing also stood up, "Then come to my house to play again next time."
Zhong Xinyi passed by Commander Li, nodded to him, and then left with her head down.
Only after closing the door did Su Jingjing turn to look at A Ting.
This time, Su Jingjing was absolutely certain that Xinyi was terrified of A-Ting.
I originally wanted to talk about her and Gu Shaokai, but I didn't expect A-Ting to come back so quickly.
"Wife, why are you looking at me like that?"
Clearly, Li Hanting had also noticed that he seemed to have returned at an inopportune time.
Su Jingjing seemed thoughtful. "Are many soldiers afraid of you?"
Thinking back, when she first transmigrated, she seemed to be afraid of Ah Ting as well.
Li Hanting pulled her into his arms and affectionately tapped her nose. "Why do you ask that?"
Su Jingjing cupped the man's face in her hands, "Xinyi feels uncomfortable whenever you're home."
"Such a handsome face, you should smile more often in the future."
Li Hanting was helpless; it wasn't his fault.
He didn't like to smile when he was a child, which made the other children in the compound afraid to play with him. Even Huanhuan's friends would avoid him when they came to visit.
"Honey, this is really putting me in a difficult position. I can't smile at other people."
It sounded like a lame joke, but Su Jingjing knew it was Ah Ting's true feelings.
"Never mind, it's better to smile only at me."
If Ah Ting smiled at other women, she would cry.
So it turns out she's possessive too!
Looking at his wife's luscious lips, Li Hanting couldn't help but lower his head. Just as he was about to kiss her, the door was suddenly opened with a "bang".
Su Jingjing quickly took two steps back, lowered her head, and dared not look into A Ting's eyes.
Seeing the strange atmosphere between her parents, Li Yuanyuan scratched her head and asked, "Mom and Dad, what are you doing?"
Su Jingjing was embarrassed and didn't know how to answer her daughter's question.
Li Hanting stepped forward to defuse the situation, lying without batting an eye, "Dad was just fixing Mom's hair."
After saying that, she urged her son, "An'an, go take a bath first."
My wife might feel more comfortable if An'an isn't around.
Li Cheng'an nodded, turned around and went into the bedroom to get his clothes.
Li Yuanyuan naively believed her and hugged her mother's leg tightly, saying, "Mom, Yuanyuan is sleepy."
The little one didn't take a nap at noon, so it's inevitable that he'll feel sleepy at this time.
Su Jingjing, disregarding her shyness, quickly picked up the child and kissed her cheek, saying, "Let's go to sleep after we take a bath."
An'an just took out the clothes and said, "Mom, why don't we let my little sister wash them first?"
After thinking for a moment, Su Jingjing noticed that her daughter kept rubbing her eyes, clearly very sleepy.
"Okay, go get my sister's clothes for Mom."
An'an happily skipped back to her bedroom, seemingly already used to it.
Su Jingjing applied shower gel to her daughter's body; the fragrant scent made her a little more awake.
"Mom, it smells so good."
"Aren't you sleepy now?"
Su Jingjing smiled with her eyes narrowed; she knew that only fragrance could wake her daughter from her drowsiness.
Li Yuanyuan sat in the steaming basin, looking like a little piglet, even her ears were red, she was very cute.
She smiled shyly at her mother and said, "Hehe, Mom, I'm not sleepy anymore."
"You," Su Jingjing affectionately pinched the child's nose, "Baby, stand up and let Mommy dry you off."
Li Yuanyuan cooperated with her mother's actions very well. After changing into cute pajamas, she looked even more adorable.
Speaking of pajamas, Su Jingjing specially asked a tailor to make them so that she could sleep more comfortably at night.
As soon as Li Yuanyuan finished dressing, she ran to her father's side and started tugging at his trouser leg.
"Dad, dry your hair."
The little guy's hair was long and soft, perfect for making little braids, and Su Jing couldn't bear to cut it.
But every time I take a shower, I accidentally get my hair a little wet, so the task of drying my hair falls to Ah Ting.
"Okay." Li Hanting let his daughter sit on his lap and gently dried her hair, just like he was treating a precious treasure.

A dilapidated small building in the military compound
Years ago, the Li family was fortunate enough to be allocated a three-bedroom, one-living-room house because Li's father was promoted to the position of regimental commander. Although the area was not large, it was still quite good to have a place to stay in Huaicheng, where land is extremely valuable.
In fact, all the residents of this building are elderly military officers, while those of higher rank live in the detached houses in front.
The atmosphere in the Li family has been somber these past few days because Li Haoxuan has had an illegitimate child.
Li's mother, Zheng Yilan, had a dark face. "I absolutely disagree with Haoxuan marrying Jinju. Who knows if that brat is carrying Haoxuan's child?"
