Chapter 32: Making Up for Yesterday’s Hard Work

“I believe you!” Su Anan looked at Lu Jingchen, who was anxious and restless, and nodded.

There was no conflict between them.

Lu Jingchen held Su Anan in his arms, tightening his grip slightly: “Anan, don’t worry, I will solve the problem with Ruan Jiaojiao. I will send her to more difficult places, and she will ask to leave herself.”

For the pampered Ruan Jiaojiao, this war zone was already tough enough.

If she were to go to the mountains for missions, she would be exhausted in no time.

“Okay, you handle it.” Su Anan’s expression was calm and composed.

Lu Jingchen sighed.

He admired Su Anan’s clear-headedness.

But her excessive composure made him feel insecure.

His confidence was severely lacking.

“What do you want to eat today? Xiao Ge bought pork, quite a lot.” Lu Jingchen thought he should make a good impression and salvage the situation.

“Hmm, pot-wrapped meat,” Su Anan knew she had a little baby in her belly, about a month old now, and she needed sufficient nutrition. “Can you make it?”

Lu Jingchen shook his head: “But my wife said I have a talent for cooking, a quick learner.”

He said as he took off his military uniform.

He rolled up his shirt sleeves.

He was handsome, and this action added a touch of charm.

Su Anan took several more glances.

Handsome!

Really handsome!

She wasn’t a lovesick fool, but she couldn’t help but look.

Not only was he good-looking, but his skills were also good.

She was still sore and weak.

Her steps were unsteady.

There was plenty of pork, so Lu Jingchen first sliced the meat and put it in a bowl. Su Anan directed him to add a little wine, a spoonful of salt, and a little pepper, mix well, and set aside to marinate.

She also prepared the batter and ingredients.

Using a popular recipe from her past life.

Lu Jingchen did have some cooking talent, and in order to please his wife, he was very attentive.

A plate of pot-wrapped meat was served, fragrant and delicious.

On the other side, Su Anan cooked rice in a large iron pot.

In this place where ironware was scarce, having two large iron pots was quite affluent.

Lu Jingchen had put his heart into this little home.

Although the war zone was remote, it was more comfortable than when she was in the city.

Even the food had improved a lot.

It gave her a sense of belonging.

She also stir-fried a dish of greens given by the sisters-in-law.

Here, this was already a sumptuous meal.

“Husband, you’ve worked hard, eat more meat.” Su Anan first put a piece of meat in Lu Jingchen’s bowl, smiling sweetly.

Lu Jingchen also smiled with satisfaction, and also put a piece in Su Anan’s bowl: “Wife, you worked hard yesterday, eat more.”

To replenish herself, she was too thin.

And he had just ‘opened his meat’, and he really couldn’t control himself.

The aftertaste was endless.

Su Anan rolled her eyes at him, suspecting he was being suggestive.

And the speed was quite fast.

This guy had good stamina, and he had indeed exhausted her yesterday.

At the guesthouse, with the effect of the medicine, she was a little overwhelmed.

However, Lu Jingchen’s face turned red again.

Su Anan didn’t tease him; he seemed to be a pure young man!

He was young and had endless energy.

“Actually, I’m not very familiar with Ruan Jiaojiao, we just lived in the same family compound,” Lu Jingchen didn’t want any misunderstandings between them. After eating, he washed the dishes and explained to Su Anan, “At that time, her father and my father were in the same army, and their relationship was good. They jokingly said they would become relatives, but it was just a joke, I don’t like Ruan Jiaojiao at all. So, it was just a joke.”

If he liked her, he wouldn’t let her chase him all the way here.

“Hmm, the delicate flower of the family compound.” Su Anan also saw that Ruan Jiaojiao was a true young lady.

Her family background was excellent.

It’s just that she was too naive, chasing a man to this place.

Even after knowing that this man was already married.

Lu Jingchen looked into Su Anan’s eyes, knowing that she was calm at the moment.

He let out a sigh, but his heart was not at ease.

It was clear that his wife didn’t care about him as much as he cared about her.

He felt a little disappointed.

But he didn’t show it.

As they talked, Su Anan rubbed her sore waist: “I need to take a nap!”

She was pregnant.

She needed enough sleep.

“I can stay for half an hour, I’ll keep you company.” Lu Jingchen liked holding his wife’s soft waist, and he liked the fragrance on his wife’s body even more.

He couldn’t get enough of holding her and smelling her.

They lay down.

The pendant on Lu Jingchen’s chest slipped out.

Su Anan subconsciously glanced at the pendant around her neck.

She picked it up and placed it next to Lu Jingchen’s pendant.

Then, her consciousness went blank.

The two pendants disappeared directly.

Only the strings remained around their necks.

Lu Jingchen saw the mountain again, this time, it wasn’t dark, there was sunlight, but it felt very far away.

Not real.

Su Anan stood by the pool.

The water in the pool was clear.

A mu of land was still there, seemingly waiting for her to cultivate it.

The mountain was still there, seemingly isolating something.

It made her want to climb over to take a look.

However, her waist ached, and her legs were weak, she couldn’t climb, so she had to give up.

At this time, Su Anan felt someone calling her name.

With a start, she left the space, and Lu Jingchen in front of her was gently shaking her.

“Anan, where are our pendants?” Lu Jingchen was stunned. Their love tokens were still around their necks just now, but now only the strings remained.

The pendants had disappeared into thin air.

Su Anan was also dumbfounded: “They were just here, how… disappeared?”

She looked at her palm.

Something flashed.

Then disappeared without a trace.

She quickly took Lu Jingchen’s hand to check.

The flash appeared again, then disappeared.

At this moment, Su Anan seemed to understand something.

The space had recognized its master.

And these two pendants seemed to have some connection.

She felt a little guilty.

She used Lu Jingchen’s heirloom to open the space and swallowed the love token she gave him.

She felt that Lu Jingchen had lost out.

She should be nicer to him.
