At this moment, Ge Hong was intimidated by Su Jingjing's imposing aura, but she still maintained her composure.
"Commander Li and Aiqin are a couple. If you hadn't gotten there first, they would definitely be together."
Although she didn't like Li Aiqin either, it didn't stop her from using her to corner Su Jingjing.
Su Jingjing snorted coldly, "Who said Li Hanting doesn't like me? He's in love with me to death right now."
As soon as he finished speaking, the footsteps by the wall stopped.
Even if you lose, you can't lose face. The original owner of this body was often the subject of gossip.
Ge Hong's eyes widened. "You... shameless."
These days, few people say "I love you" out loud.
At that moment, steady footsteps came from the courtyard gate. As if sensing something, Su Jingjing felt a chill run down her spine.
She turned around stiffly, wondering to herself, "How come Li Hanting finished training so quickly?"
Did he hear those words just now?
Thinking of this, Su Jingjing blushed, creating a major social media frenzy.
Li Hanting only had eyes for his wife, and he didn't reject those words at all.
However, Ge Hong's intentions were not pure, and she was often the one stirring up trouble.
He glanced at Ge Hong lightly, his eyes devoid of any emotion.
But even a casual glance sent a shiver down the other person's spine.
Ge Hong was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she ran out of the courtyard gate with her head down and sideways.
Su Jingjing hadn't expected Ge Hong to be such a bully who preyed on the weak, but once she met the man's eyes, she immediately understood the fear in Ge Hong's heart.
The man's deep eyes were anything but calm; they seemed to hold the power of a cheetah running within them, making them terrifying.
No wonder those greenhorn recruits were all afraid of him.
Su Jingjing quickly looked away, forcing herself to remain calm, and said, "Why did you finish so early today? I haven't cooked breakfast yet."
Fortunately, it's the weekend, so the two kids don't have to rush to eat breakfast.
"Today's task isn't heavy, let's go home first."
Li Hanting was lying through his teeth. It wasn't that the mission wasn't demanding; in reality, those greenhorns were undergoing inhuman training on the parade ground.
Su Jingjing gave a vague "Oh" and followed behind the man.
She was too embarrassed to ask the man if he had heard those words.
The two little ones inside had already gotten up. Seeing that their mother wasn't home, they knew she must still be running.
Don't cry or make a fuss, just obediently wash up.
Li Yuanyuan didn't know what to make for breakfast, but in order to ease her mother's burden, she took the initiative to clean the house.
Li Cheng'an quickly stopped her, saying that his little sister was so small that she might not even be able to hold a broom properly.
"Yuanyuan, you don't need to sweep the floor."
"Brother, Mom is so good to us, I want to help her sweep the floor."
Li Cheng'an paused, his hand holding the broom still. His mother had indeed been very diligent these past two weekends, cleaning every room except for his father's study.
He sighed and said to his younger sister, "You go over there and read the storybooks. I'll sweep them."
Li Yuanyuan knew that her brother was worried about her, so she obediently replied, "Okay, brother."
As soon as Su Jingjing opened the door, she saw this heartwarming scene.
One was reading a book, and the other was sweeping the floor.
Hearing the noise at the door, the two little ones immediately turned their heads to look. Yuanyuan put down her storybook and ran towards the door, exclaiming with delight, "Mommy's back!"
Hugging his mother's leg affectionately, he seemed to only then realize his father's presence.
"Hey, Dad, what brings you back?" she said, blinking her big, grape-like eyes.
Li Hanting felt that his little darling was letting in the wind, but he still gave the same explanation.
Su Jingjing led Yuanyuan to An'an and asked, "An'an, why did you suddenly decide to sweep the floor?"
That's so thoughtful!
Li Cheng'an gripped the broom tightly, pursed his lips, and said, "Nothing better to do."
Su Jingjing glanced at the book on the chair and chuckled to herself. How could this kid have nothing better to do than spend all day engrossed in books?
She didn't expose An'an's little scheme, and said softly, "You're still young, you don't need to sweep the floor."
After saying that, she turned to look into the man's eyes and said, "Commander Li, are you free now? Why don't you come and sweep the floor?"
Since she's the one cooking, the man should be sweeping the floor; work should be arranged reasonably.
Upon hearing this, An'an was immediately dumbfounded.
Is Mom really that bold? She actually dared to make Dad sweep the floor.
He pouted, wanting to argue, but seeing his father's expressionless face, he couldn't figure it out and swallowed the words he was about to say.
Hearing the term "wife," Li Hanting frowned slightly; he didn't like such an unfamiliar way of addressing her.
"If you're not available, then forget it."
Su Jingjing noticed the man's subtle movement and mistakenly thought he was unwilling to sweep the floor, so she quickly gave herself a way out.
"I'm free."
Li Hanting suddenly replied, then took the broom from his son and began sweeping the floor diligently.
It looked somewhat incongruous that a man nearly 1.9 meters tall was holding a short broom.
Seeing that the man's movements were quite skillful, Su Jingjing let him be.
Tell Yuanyuan, "Read books with your brother in the living room while Mom makes breakfast."
Li Yuanyuan tugged at her mother's sleeve, looked up and said, "Mom, I'll go help you."
"You're still young, be a good boy and read books with your brother."
How could Su Jingjing bear to let the little guy into the kitchen? Besides, the kitchen was a bit small, and she was afraid he might accidentally bump into the little guy, which would break her heart.
Li Yuanyuan then obediently continued reading, and even asked her brother for help with any words she didn't understand.
Li Cheng'an was distracted, so he simply closed the book and looked at his father, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
"What's wrong? Speak your mind."
He then mustered up the courage to say to his father, "Dad, why are you willing to listen to Mom too?"
If Grandma saw this, she would be stunned.
Li Hanting continued what he was doing, replying to his son without changing his expression, "A man should listen to his wife."
"By the way, don't tell anyone else in your family about this."
His family had finally begun to change their opinion of his wife a little, and he didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.
"oh oh."
Li Cheng'an understood the gravity of the situation, but did his father's words mean that he still had feelings for his mother?
"Say whatever you have to say all at once."
"Dad, do you like Mom a little?"
Li Hanting paused, glanced at his son, and realized that nothing could escape his eyes.
"You brat, you even dare to tease your dad."
"In short, you will gradually accept your mother in the future."
Although his father didn't say it explicitly, Li Cheng'an knew perfectly well what was going on, and he felt secretly pleased.
Su Jingjing was curious about what the man did, so she peeked out from the kitchen and found that he was quite meticulous in his work, not only sweeping but also mopping the floor.
He couldn't help but smile with satisfaction. Hmm, not bad, no chauvinism at all.
It seems like she's still a potential partner, someone I could develop a relationship with.
Actually, she was just testing whether the man would refuse.
Li Hanting, who was focused on sweeping the floor, was unaware that he was gradually gaining a place in his wife's heart.
