Chapter 114: The Man I Married Is a Great Hero Who Protects Our Home and Country

Zhou Yubai hadn’t been angry, he was just teasing her because she thought about divorcing him whenever something happened.

He didn’t expect the little rabbit to cry.

Seeing her cry, Zhou Yubai panicked, quickly hugging her.

“Wife, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said that, don’t be angry, okay?”

Zhou Yubai never knew he could apologize so smoothly, nor did he expect to use such a humble tone to coax someone.

Shen Chuning had suppressed too many emotions, now that her husband was here, she felt secure, no longer needing to hold back her emotions.

That’s why she cried unrestrainedly.

Hearing his apology, she glared at him, “Are you still going to yell at me?”

“No more, never again!” Zhou Yubai quickly promised, lowering his head to gently kiss away her tears.

But as he kissed, his lips moved to hers.

At first, she stared blankly, not reacting.

Until the man’s rough hand cupped the back of her head, attacking her mouth while saying, “Close your eyes.”

Shen Chuning subconsciously closed her eyes.

The man seemed to be a natural in this aspect.

When they first got married, Zhou Yubai was like a blank sheet of paper, clumsy.

Now he was skilled, completely taking the lead.

In a few moments, Shen Chuning softened in the man’s strong embrace, her breathing quickened.

Just as they were both losing control, there was a tentative knock on the door, “Third Son, Third Son, is Ningning awake? Come over for dinner when you’re awake.”

Hearing her mother-in-law’s voice, Shen Chuning felt a tingling sensation from head to toe.

She quickly pushed the man away, her face blushing.

If her mother-in-law saw them like this…

Was she shameless?

She glared at the man, “Quickly open the door for Mother.”

Seeing her shy and cute look, the corners of Zhou Yubai’s mouth couldn’t help but rise.

He leaned close to Shen Chuning’s ear, “Wife, let’s continue tonight.”

It was a statement, not a question.

Shen Chuning’s face, which had just cooled down, blushed again.

She glared at the man, “Can you be serious!”

Was this still the man who was so serious that she was afraid to even look at him?

The man became even more presumptuous, lightly pecking her earlobe, “I can’t be serious in front of my wife.”

Shen Chuning: …

Zhou Yubai opened the door for Lin Shulan.

His previously unrestrained face was now expressionless and unapproachable, as if he had changed into a different person.

“Mother, Ningning just woke up. You go first, she’ll get ready, and we’ll come over.”

“Okay, hurry up. It’s cold now, the food will get cold quickly.”

After Lin Shulan left, Shen Chuning took several deep breaths before the heat on her face subsided.

She saw the man walking towards her again.

She quickly raised a hand to stop him.

Fortunately, the man didn’t approach her but went to the bed to pick up the stick she had grabbed.

He asked, “Wife, where do you put this?”

Shen Chuning didn’t mind, answering while braiding her hair, “Under my pillow.”

Zhou Yubai was about to put the stick back, but when he lifted the pillow, he saw her arsenal.

Guilt surged in his heart.

Shen Chuning had finished braiding her hair but saw the man hadn’t moved, she looked at him.

He was staring at her arsenal under the pillow.

She felt embarrassed, explaining, “Didn’t Chen Ziyun climb over the wall last time? I prepared some self-defense things under my pillow.”

She had just prepared a little more.

Besides the stick, scissors, kitchen knife, and a bamboo tube filled with chili powder.

Her father made the bamboo tube, like a syringe, with a hole in one section and a piston in another, filled with chili powder.

She could spray the chili powder to temporarily blind the attacker.

She could gain the upper hand whether escaping or calling for help.

Zhou Yubai felt fortunate.

Fortunately, the little rabbit had grabbed the stick, if she grabbed the chili powder tube, even if he reacted quickly, he would suffer.

But he felt more guilty, if he could protect her, why would she need these?

He held Shen Chuning’s hand, his deep eyes full of apology, “Wife, you’ve worked hard.”

Shen Chuning smiled, “Brother Yubai, what are you saying? I’m not tired, I’m proud, the man I married is a great hero who protects our home and country.”

Zhou Yubai hugged her tightly, as if wanting to melt her into his bones and blood.

When they went to Zhou’s house for dinner, the eldest and second families had already eaten, Lin Shulan didn’t call them.

Zhou Jun, worried about Shen Zhengliang, came to the main room.

Seeing Zhou Jun, Sun Fengjiao quickly sent Zhou Jiakang over.

Shen Zhengliang’s matter wasn’t related to enemy agents, it didn’t involve secrets.

Zhou Yubai directly told them everything.

Zhou Baoguo nodded while smoking his pipe, “Second Brother Shen has nothing to do with the enemy agents, what about Wang Yumeng?”

“Wang Yumeng’s situation is unclear, it needs further investigation.” Zhou Yubai said.

Zhou Jun eagerly asked, “So Zhengliang hunting will be considered undermining socialism. He didn’t sell his game, so it shouldn’t be considered speculation, right?”

Zhou Yubai nodded.

Zhou Jiakang also asked, “Then what’s the punishment for undermining socialism?”

“The county committee is busy now, they won’t care about this small matter, they’ll probably hand him over to the commune.” Zhou Yubai didn’t say it clearly.

Except for Zhou Jiakang, everyone understood.

The commune was busy collecting public grain.

They wouldn’t have time to deal with Shen Zhengliang hunting rabbits and chickens, it would probably be handled by the brigade.

This matter could be easily resolved at the brigade level.

Shen Zhengliang had shared the wild boar meat with the villagers, it could be considered a merit, he might just pay a fine, and the matter would be over.

The Zhou family breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Jiakang didn’t understand Zhou Yubai at first.

But seeing everyone relaxed and hearing their conversation, he understood.

He told Sun Fengjiao, and she also breathed a sigh of relief.
