Chapter 194 Space Wedding Night
The moonlight, like water, shone through the newly pasted window paper, spreading a hazy, clear glow on the blue brick floor.
The first night in the courtyard was so quiet that you could hear the faint barking of dogs in the distance and the intertwined heartbeats of two people standing close at hand.
Having received his marriage certificate, Comrade Lu Zhanming felt he had undergone a significant identity transformation. After dinner, he casually grabbed his pillow and brazenly "crashed" into the main room of the house.
Gu Baobao had just finished washing up and was sitting in front of the dressing table combing her long hair when she saw someone leaning against the door frame in the mirror, his eyes shining brightly and a smile playing on his lips.
Her face flushed, and she pretended not to see it.
Lu Zhanming placed the pillow on the inside of the double bed, snuggled up behind her, gently placed his hands on her shoulders, and rubbed his chin against the top of her hair, which smelled of soap.
"Wife, it's getting late."
His gaze was intense in the mirror.
Gu Baobao put down the comb, turned around, and looked serious:
"Lu Zhanming..."
Using full names and surnames, in a serious tone.
Lu Zhanming's heart skipped a beat, and his smile froze.
What's wrong?
What did I not do well today?
"I have some very important things to say, and I must make them clear tonight."
Gu Baobao looked solemn.
Lu Zhanming's heart sank.
He pulled the person into his arms with a rather strong pull:
"Baby, I know you have secrets. You don't have to tell me everything. I just want you by my side, to live out the rest of my life together, okay?"
His voice sounded a little strained.
Gu Baobao felt a slight pain from his hug, but her heart softened. She cupped his face, forcing him to look at her:
"Brother Zhanming, I have to say these things. After I say them, if you think I'm a monster..."
"nonsense!"
Lu Zhanming interrupted her and gave her a deep kiss on the lips.
"You, Gu Baobao, will always be my wife, in this life and the next! No matter who you are or where you come from, as long as it's you, I'll accept you!"
His gaze was intense and resolute.
Gu Baobao's eyes were slightly warm.
She took a deep breath and spoke slowly, word by word:
"I am not the original Gu Baobao. My name is Gu Yubao, and I come from decades in the future."
The real Gu Baobao is dead. I was killed in the lab explosion by my cousin.
Lu Zhanming's heart stopped for a moment.
Time travel?
Reincarnation?
But looking into her clear and open eyes, he surprisingly accepted it quickly, because what she said matched his feelings perfectly.
No wonder!!!
No wonder "Gu Baobao" is full of miracles.
The initial tremor in my heart subsided, replaced by a mixture of tenderness and relief.
He tightened his arms around her, his forehead pressed against hers.
"Baby, from now on, only the two of us are allowed to know this. You are Gu Baobao, my wife, Lu Zhanming's wife. Remember that?"
It is a plea, it is a covenant.
Gu Baobao nodded vigorously, tears streaming down her face.
"Yes, I'm Gu Baobao, your wife."
After a moment of tenderness, Gu Baobao looked up, her eyes sparkling with joy:
"Honey, close your eyes, I'm going to take you somewhere."
Lu Zhanming closed his eyes as instructed, and felt a slight dizziness.
When he opened his eyes again, he was stunned and frozen in place.
Before me was a strange space shrouded in a light white mist. Beneath my feet was a smooth floor.
Directly in front, a simple white two-story building stands.
Beside it was an ancient-looking blue stone well, and a crystal-clear pool filled with spiritual energy. He instantly recognized it as the Spirit Spring!
Welcome to my world.
Gu Baobao took his stiff hand, her voice tinged with laughter.
“This villa is where I lived in my past life. I never expected it to follow me here. This pool is the Spirit Spring. Come on, let’s visit my former ‘home’.”
Lu Zhanming, like a country boy visiting the city for the first time, was being led towards the villa.
He pushed open the automatic sliding door, and his eyes widened again.
The interior was brightly lit, yet no lamps were visible; the floor was so shiny it reflected light; and there were oddly shaped, soft sofas.
A huge TV wall that can reflect images, and various shiny decorations.
The air was warm and filled with a faint, sweet fragrance.
"This...is this what ordinary people will live in decades from now?"
Lu Zhanming's throat went dry. This was far beyond any accommodation he had ever seen.
"I guess so, but I made it personalized."
Gu Baobao pulled him aside to introduce them.
"This is the living room, for relaxing and watching TV... um, a kind of device that plays videos and audio. This is the kitchen, for convenience... This is the study..."
She tried to use words he could understand, and Lu Zhanming was still deeply moved.
He glimpsed a prosperous and advanced future world.
"Will our country really be like this in the future? Everyone will have enough to eat and wear, and be able to drive cars?"
He pressed on, his eyes burning with fervor. As a soldier, a prosperous and strong nation was his greatest wish.
"Yes! It's definitely possible!"
Gu Baobao's expression was resolute, her eyes filled with unwavering conviction.
"And it will be even better! Our country will become one of the most powerful and respected nations! No one will dare to bully us again!"
"Great! That's wonderful!"
Lu Zhanming excitedly picked up Gu Baobao and spun her around in a circle.
Gu Baobao hugged his neck and giggled.
After the initial excitement, Lu Zhanming's gaze began to wander:
"Baby, where is your... bedroom?"
Gu Baobao pointed upstairs.
Without saying a word, Lu Zhanming picked her up and strode up to the second floor.
Pushing open the master bedroom door, an even richer fragrance wafts out.
The room was spacious and bright, with a large, soft bed taking center stage.
Lu Zhanming placed Gu Baobao by the bedside, standing still and gazing intently at her. His eyes were deep and unfathomable, surging with shock, relief, pride, and a burning emotion ignited by the sight before him and the lover in his arms.
He needed to do something to confirm that this wasn't a dream, to celebrate the openness of having no more secrets.
So he leaned down and captured her lips precisely.
This kiss was different from any other; it carried an almost predatory domineering force and a sense of asserting sovereignty, burning hot and lingering.
Gu Baobao was so dizzy from the kisses that she felt disoriented.
In a daze, they realized that the two of them were now disheveled.
The space was kept at a constant temperature, but his body temperature and gaze made her tremble slightly.
Lu Zhanming was about to get to the point—
Then……
That was the end of it.
Gu Baobao felt the person on top of her freeze.
Time seemed to freeze for a few seconds.
Lu Zhanming propped himself up, looked down at himself, then looked up at his wife, whose face was flushed.
For the first time, a look of utter disbelief, shame, and deep self-doubt appeared on that usually cold and handsome face.
He, Lu Zhanming, twenty-seven years old, is a steel-willed man with outstanding physical abilities, ranking among the best in the entire army.
On their wedding night, in the bride's celestial abode, in such a romantic atmosphere...
Second……? ? ?
This is unacceptable!
That's not scientific!
This is a devastating blow to male dignity!
Gu Baobao also came to her senses. Looking at his expression as if the sky had fallen, she was stunned for a moment, and then almost burst out laughing.
Having studied medicine, she immediately understood the reason:
Extreme excitement + tension caused by sudden environmental change + what might happen...?
She coughed lightly, trying to suppress the urge to smile, and comforted him in the most professional and gentle tone:
"Brother Zhanming, it's okay, this is normal. Maybe you were too excited, or you weren't used to the environment. It's your first time..."
"The first time doesn't count!"
Lu Zhanming abruptly interrupted, squeezing out the words through clenched teeth, his eyes blazing with fury.
This is absolutely the biggest black mark on his life! It must be erased immediately!
He took a deep breath, silently recited a few calming mantras, and refocused his gaze on the little woman beneath him who was trying hard to suppress her laughter. He said fiercely:
"That was an accident! It was a drill! Now, the official battle begins!"
After saying that, without giving Gu Baobao a chance to react, he sealed her lips again and began a new, more skillful offensive with his hands.
This time, he learned from his mistakes and proceeded steadily.
The spiritual spring water, his physique honed through years of training, and his unwavering determination allowed him to quickly regain control of the home field.
Gu Baobao quickly lost her composure. The unfamiliar environment, the quiet space, the only sound the intermingling of their breaths.
From the incredibly soft bed, to the gleaming floor, and then to the mirror that reflects your image...
Lu Zhanming demonstrated through his actions what it means to get up from where you fall, and to get up many times over.
Gu Baobao was almost crying and begging for mercy before she was reluctantly let go.
Lu Zhanming carried his limp wife into the shower room he had been studying for a long time.
He was once again surprised when the warm water gushed out from the showerhead above his head, and quickly mastered the trick of adjusting the temperature.
He carefully washed her, his movements gentle. After cleaning her, he dried her with a soft, fluffy towel and then tucked her into the sun-drenched bed.
Lu Zhanming quickly took a shower, lay down next to her, and hugged her tightly.
His nose was filled with her unique sweet scent, he was on a soft, cloud-like mattress, and his warm, fragrant wife was in his arms. Lu Zhanming sighed with satisfaction.
Oh, my wife's bed smells so good! Just like her.
He thought to himself with satisfaction, and as fatigue and contentment washed over him, he soon drifted off to sleep.
