Chapter 416 Eating Corn
These two cowards clearly want to curry favor with Master Pao, but they are terribly afraid of Master Pao. Who understands their conflicted mentality?
With their current mental qualities, if they were to go to the battlefield, they would probably just become deserters.
"Sister Feng, Master Pao has such a strong aura and looks so fierce. Wouldn't our husband be intimidated working under him?"
"I don't know. I'll ask him when I get back."
Xue Jing and Song Wen returned home dejected like two little thieves. Their husbands saw that they looked unwell and asked.
"What's wrong? What happened to you? Did you have a quarrel with Xiao Pao's wife?"
"No. I saw Master Pao! His aura was colder than the Antarctic glaciers, and I was scared back. Are you afraid of him?"
Feng Zixuan and Hao Shuai had the same reaction, laughing uncontrollably.
"Don't worry, although Master Pao looks cold, he's actually very kind to his subordinates and is very protective of them. As long as you don't make any mistakes and don't step on his traps, following him is the best way forward."
The two military wives asked in unison, "What's the minefield for the artillery master?"
"Before, you bullied his soldiers, now you bully his wife. As long as you get along well with Xiao Pao's wife, Master Pao will definitely treat you as guests of honor."
Xue Jing and Song Wen understood. From now on, they would have to go to Xiao Pao's house more often. They just had to choose the right time to go.
When Lin Youqian was cooking, Qi Xu wanted to help him but was kicked out.
"There's smoke in the kitchen, go rest outside."
Qi Xu didn't want to, so he stood at the door and chatted with him.
"You came back so early today just to cook for me?"
"That's right! It's your fault that you're so stupid, can't cook, and have such a picky appetite. If I don't come back, won't you starve?"
Qi Xu retorted.
"I'm not that pretentious. I can't cook, so I can eat in the cafeteria. When I was in college, I also ate communal meals for several years. When I was in the hospital studio, I also ate staff meals in the cafeteria."
"The past is the past, there's nothing I can do about it. Now you're my wife, and I have to love you. Being picky is a good thing, it shows that our Qiqi has good taste and is particular. I, your husband, can afford to support you."
"I've already informed the kitchen staff. From now on, your three meals a day will be taken care of by a dedicated chef. Just make a list of what you want to eat and have them prepare it accordingly."
Qi Xu was of course very happy to be able to have special treatment, but she also had some concerns.
"Honey, if I get special treatment, will the other military families gossip about me?"
“Who dares!” Lin Youqian’s action of flipping the pan was as domineering as his voice.
"I'm a major general now. This is my privilege. If anyone dares to be jealous of you, just make sure her man climbs to my position first."
When someone reaches Lin Youqian's position, he can be equipped with a dedicated secretary, assistant, driver, waiter, liaison officer, cook, etc.
Even before, Lin Youqian had the right to have a chef to cook for him, but he was away on business most of the time, so he didn't ask for it.
Now that Qi Xu has joined the army, he can't let his wife suffer with him.
"Qiqi, I've hired a special aunt to take care of the housework. She'll come and clean on time every day, so you don't have to do it."
Qi Xu felt that Lin Youqian really treated her like a princess and didn't let her do any work. Wouldn't that make her a waste?
"No need for that, Auntie. I can do the housework when I'm free."
Lin Youqian curled his lips into a smile and started talking nonsense again.
"It's hard enough for you to take care of your husband every day, how can you have the energy to work?"
Qi Xu blushed. "If you ask for it twice less every day, wouldn't that make things easier for me?"
Lin Youqian brought the prepared food to the table, hugged her from behind and helped her wash her hands, just like he would do to a kindergarten child. He whispered teasingly in her ear.
"No! If I skip two meals, I'll get skinny!"
Lin Youqian's lustful nature can erupt anytime and anywhere as long as he touches Qi Xu. Even washing his hands can make sparks fly.
Qi Xu clearly felt that his body had begun to stiffen.
"Lin Youqian!"
"exist!"
Qi Xu's angry voice made Lin Youqian even more impulsive. His actions became even more presumptuous.
"Stop making trouble and eat first!"
"good!"
Lin Youqian picked up a piece of corn from the table and stuffed it into Qi Xu's mouth. Then he carried her straight to the bedroom.
"Baby, if you're hungry, eat first. Leave me alone!"
Qi Xu wanted to use the big corn cob in his mouth to beat this bastard to death.
How could she possibly eat it when he was so violent? Even if she did, she'd probably choke to death.
After this big meal, Qi Xu was almost stuffed to death.
The corn cob she was holding tightly in her hand was also squeezed into corn paste.
In the end, Lin Youqian ate all of it without any disgust, and even said that food should not be wasted.
After finishing their main meal, they had lunch, and before they knew it, it was already 2:30 in the afternoon.
Seeing that he had no intention of leaving, Qi Xu asked.
"Youqian, don't you have to go to work this afternoon?"
Lin Youqian looked at Qi Xu with a smile, not missing any of her expressions.
"I don't have anything to do this afternoon, so I won't be going. Old Man Li said he'd prepare a celebration banquet for me tonight. Go get some sleep first, get enough rest, and sing with me tonight."
"Oh! God, I won't go! I won't sing again, even if I'm beaten to death!"
Sure enough, when she heard the word "sing", she exploded like a popcorn.
Lin Youqian asked her. "Why don't you sing? I remember you liked singing very much. You even said you sang well!"
Qi Xu covered his face and blurted out his embarrassing stories.
"Stop talking! It's so embarrassing. My whole life's reputation has been ruined by my singing."
Lin Youqian pursed his lips tightly, trying not to laugh out loud. He had already privately inquired about the joke she made while singing.
But he pretended to know nothing and asked deliberately.
"Oh? What's the matter? Why is singing a song embarrassing?"
Qi Xu told him the story with a sad face.
"From childhood to adulthood, my mom, my grandma, Aunt Su, and Brother Jiashu all lied and praised my singing. This gave me a mysterious confidence that I really could sing well."
"Then, last time at my second brother's farewell party, he and I showed off our singing voices. And guess what? You're a bunch of hypocritical soldiers in your army. You put on one face in front of me, but you put on another behind my back."
"On stage, she gave my second brother and me plenty of applause, praising our singing. But behind my back, she complained about my terrible singing and nicknamed me the Deathly Diva."
"Especially those bad guys in the Political Department, they said my singing could bring their great-grandmother back to life from the grave."
"My cooking is so bad and my singing is so terrible that I am too embarrassed to see anyone."
Lin Youqian tried his best to suppress the laughter in his chest and comforted her attentively.
"Okay, okay, I get it. Honey, you've been wronged. Your husband will help you deal with those bastards later."
"Good wife, don't be angry anymore. Tonight, your husband will save your face."
In the past, every time Lin Youqian made a contribution, Old Man Li said he would hold a celebration banquet for him, but he always declined.
But this time, he actually agreed for the first time.
Lin Youqian didn't want to show off his singing skills to save Qi Xu's face. Instead, he wanted to use this celebration party to find the mastermind behind the incident.
