That shouldn't be the case.
He met his sister-in-law in person while he was in the hospital.
They're about the same height and build as each other.
He accompanied Lu Shishen to the department store for an afternoon, and only bought the items after consulting with the sales staff.
At the time, Lu Shi was worried that the items wouldn't fit, so he had him try them on.
I wonder how many strange looks I received from those around me!
Their deputy battalion commander didn't even blink, completely disregarding what others thought.
Such a sincere attitude, didn't it move your sister-in-law?
Lu Shishen waved his hand, "If we don't leave now, we won't be back before lights out, and we'll all be punished."
Upon hearing this, the young men hurriedly began to put on their clothes.
The young man who had just asked him the question muttered under his breath as he pulled on his socks, "Is your wife's heart made of steel?"
......
After making breakfast, Chen Ji ate with Xu Ruantang and Xiao Bao, and then went to the military base.
Ye Lan arrived at noon.
But Chen Lin came with her.
Curious, Xu Ruantang asked Ye Lan privately, "Isn't Dad busy?"
She had barely run into Chen Lin at the Chen family home.
Ye Lan also looked puzzled, "She said she wasn't busy lately, and when she saw me delivering soup, she insisted on carrying it for me, afraid that I would get tired."
When she was carrying a large bag of groceries, Chen Lin never thought she would be tired.
Ye Lan didn't know what he was up to, and assumed that Chen Lin had something to say to Chen Ji, so she didn't expose him.
The two were talking in the kitchen when Chen Lin's slightly serious voice came from the main room.
"Xiao Bao, get down here! How can you sit at the table to eat!"
Xu Ruantang frowned.
Even though Chen Lin disliked her before, he never made things difficult for the child.
"Does Dad still favor boys over girls?"
Xu Ruantang's voice turned colder, "Mom, if I say anything unpleasant later, it's not directed at you, so don't worry about it."
Xiao Bao isn't a child of the Chen family, so Chen Lin is being a bit too controlling.
Besides, why can't her daughter eat at the table? This is her home!
Xu Ruantang put down the spatula and stormed out of the kitchen with a furious expression.
Before she could even speak, she was stunned by the scene before her.
Chen Lin stood by the dining table, looking at Xiao Bao sternly, and scolded her, "Get down! If you don't get down, Grandpa will have to carry you down!"
Xiao Bao smiled broadly, completely unafraid of Chen Lin's dark expression.
He even reached out and poked Chen Lin's cheek, laughing so hard his eyes disappeared.
Xu Ruantang: "......"
Even if we take a step back and say that Chen Lin is right, then they shouldn't sit at the table to eat.
Eating while standing on the table? What's going on?!
Xiao Bao didn't know how he got onto the dining table; he was standing perfectly straight there.
A moment later, he squatted down again and poked at the food in the plate with his hand.
"Xiao Bao, get down!"
Xu Ruantang called her name, and Xiaobao immediately opened her arms to Chen Lin for a hug.
Chen Lin quickly carried her down.
Xu Ruantang silently returned to the kitchen.
Chen Ji returned shortly afterward, carrying a large object with Xu Hanli, followed by another person holding a mirror.
"Sister-in-law, what do you think of this? Does it meet your requirements?"
Xu Hanli wiped the sweat from his face and smiled ingratiatingly.
Xu Ruantang was completely bewildered. "What?"
"The dressing table was made exactly as you described."
Chen Ji rolled up his sleeves as he explained.
Xu Ruantang had forgotten what Chen Ji had said before he left, but she didn't expect Chen Ji to remember it.
She went over and took a closer look, and found that the originally square corners of the table had been ground into rounded shapes.
Xu Ruantang couldn't help but glance at Chen Ji again.
Xu Hanli immediately caught on and began to flatter her: "Sister-in-law, Old Chen was watching her every step of the way."
As he spoke, he walked to the dressing table and pointed to the sharp edges, "Here, here, Old Chen smoothed them all himself. He said the sharp corners are easy to bump and scratch!"
Xu Hanli still feels a pang of sadness whenever he thinks about the way Chen Ji spoke back then.
He thought to himself.
Don't let him find true love. If that day ever comes, he'll have to hold his wife's hand and walk around in front of Old Chen a hundred times a day!
To get revenge for being constantly shown up in front of my face every day!
"Hanli, come in and sit down."
Xu Hanli was still feeling smug when he heard a deep voice, and he almost lost his balance.
He whispered to Xu Ruantang, "Sister-in-law, what's Uncle Chen doing at your house?"
Xu Ruantang shrugged.
How would she know?
Xu Hanli looked embarrassed. It was too late to slip away, so he had no choice but to go into the main room.
Xu Ruantang turned around, took Chen Ji's hand and looked at it.
Besides having distinct joints, the calluses were also hard and thick.
It's probably because I've been rubbing it all morning; it feels harder than before, and there are a few broken skin spots.
She chuckled. "Young Master, does your hand hurt?"
Chen Ji's gaze was deep as he countered, "Do you like it?"
Xu Ruantang nodded vigorously.
There were only the two of them in the courtyard. Chen Ji quickly bent down and kissed Xu Ruantang on the lips.
After he finished kissing her, he quickly pulled away, his voice tinged with amusement, and said, "Then it won't hurt."
Xu Ruantang: "......"
I wonder where Chen Ji learned these flirting tricks.
Xu Hanli and his comrades who came with him were asked to stay for dinner.
He was somewhat restless, and his usual carefree demeanor became sparse; he simply buried his head in his rice.
Ye Lan thought he was hungry, and said with a smile, "Hanli, eat slowly, there's plenty of food. When you come to Aunt Ye's place, you'll be full."
Xu Hanli choked on a mouthful of rice and almost coughed up his lungs.
Just as he had calmed down, Chen Lin glanced at him again and asked a very damaging question.
