Chapter 24

Lu Anning didn’t expect that the person she thought was “soundly asleep” would suddenly open his eyes. When she met his eyes, she was so scared that she lost her right hand and fell towards him.

“ah!”

Lu Anning, who was lying on his chest, cried out in pain. His body was as strong as a rock and it even hurt her nose.

“Are you all right?”

Lu Anning covered his nose which was hurt by the collision and shook his head.

It was so embarrassing that I kept scratching the villa with my toes.

She was caught staring at someone. She didn’t want to get up at all. She just wanted to find a hole to crawl into. She wanted to disappear on the spot.

Sui Jingxing under her was not much better than her.

He just wanted to open his eyes to see what the little girl was looking at, but who would have thought that she would be frightened by his sudden opening of her eyes, and she lost her hands and accidentally fell into his arms.

Feeling the person as soft as jade in his arms, and the soft touch on his chest and abdomen, Sui Jingxing felt his brain suddenly buzz and his scalp numbed from the stimulation.

He was very stiff at this moment and didn’t dare to move at all, let alone help her up.

He was afraid that he would lose his composure by touching her too much, which would only scare her again.

He tried hard to control his body. His ears might not have been red just now, but they should be completely red now.

Lu Anning’s usual appearance appeared in his mind from time to time, and Sui Jingxing felt like he was going crazy.

Lu Anning inherited her mother Lu’s slender frame and she doesn’t eat much, so she looks tall, thin and very slim.

But her thinness was limited to her limbs and waist, and she still gained weight in other places where she should have.

She has a typical curvy figure, a slim waist and long legs, and is undoubtedly a devilish figure.

“Lu Anning, are you okay?”

If she doesn’t get up soon, he will be in trouble.

Hearing his question again, Lu Anning quickly climbed up from him, avoided his sight, returned to her pillow, and took the thin blanket next to her and covered her head.

Now she just hopes Sui Jingxing can get out of here quickly and leave her alone. She wants to shut herself up! She wants to die!

All the people who were not lost in the previous life were lost today.

Sui Jingxing did as she wished. As soon as she left his body, he quickly got out of bed, opened the door in his slippers and ran to the bathroom. His movements were done in one go without any hesitation, so that Lu’s parents outside the house thought it was just a gust of wind passing by.

Sui Jingxing went to the bathroom, took off his clothes, and poured two buckets of cold water on himself.

Sitting on the stool that Lu’s mother brought into the bathroom for Lu Anning, he sighed heavily.

When he came out of the bathroom again, almost an hour had passed.

“Jingxing, what’s wrong? Diarrhea?”

When Lu’s mother saw him running from the room to the bathroom, she thought he was going to the toilet. When she saw him coming out from there, his face looked bad, she hurried over to express her concern.

“I’m fine.”

“It’s getting late, I have to go to training first.”

Sui Jingxing came to the training ground and spent an afternoon not only training his subordinates but also himself.

In order to prevent the situation at noon from happening again, he had to use up all his energy in advance to prevent some inappropriate thoughts from popping up in his mind.

“Brother Orange, what happened to the deputy regiment this afternoon? Why do I feel like I’ve eaten dynamite? He was fine this morning.”

“Yeah, what’s wrong with him? He usually trains us hard, but why is he so cruel today that he doesn’t even let himself go?”

Chengzi’s real name is Chen Xian. He is a deputy battalion commander under Sui Jingxing. He has been assigned under Sui Jingxing since he joined the army and has the closest relationship with him.

Therefore, whenever there is any disturbance in Sui Jingxing, the first person everyone looks for is definitely Orange.

“I don’t know. He went home for lunch at noon and didn’t come with me.”

Orange was also confused about Sui Jingxing’s strange behavior in the afternoon.

“Did you have a quarrel with your sister-in-law at noon?”

“How is that possible? Didn’t the family compound say that my sister-in-law’s throat was damaged and she was still recuperating? She couldn’t even talk, so how could there be any unpleasantness? The deputy regiment commander can’t just scold her unilaterally, right?”

“Besides, his father-in-law and mother-in-law are still here. If he dares to scold their daughter, they will be very angry with him.”

“In my opinion, it might be because of unsatisfied desire.”

A married battalion commander nearby patted Orange on the shoulder and left in the direction of the family compound, leaving the young men with the back of a veteran.

“Tsk tsk, what should I do? I believe what Lao Liu said.”

“I feel like what he said seems a bit possible.”

“Shh! Stop talking. If the deputy captain hears it, tomorrow will be even harder for everyone.”

“Let’s go, no more talking, let’s go eat!”

After everyone left, Sui Jingxing practiced one more set for himself before going home.

He thought he had adjusted himself, but when he entered the house and saw Lu Anning sitting on the chair, he remembered the soft touch of the bed he lay on at noon today, and silently despised himself in his heart.

He usually thinks he has great self-control. Even Uncle Chen often says that he is the kind of person who can remain calm even under great pressure.

As a result, today he found that his heartstrings were easily touched. He began to lose his composure and overturned his previous perception of himself.

Fortunately, Lu Anning is one of us, not an enemy, otherwise he would have died a thousand times.

“Jingxing is back, go wash your hands and get ready for dinner.”

“Lu Anning also cooked a dish tonight, guess which one it is later.”

Lu’s mother spared no effort to create various opportunities for the young couple to get along, talk, and understand each other… As long as she thought it would make them more familiar with each other, Lu’s mother was willing to become a promoter of the young couple.

After he washed his hands, the four of them sat on four sides of the table.

“Lu Anning, Jing Xing must have worked hard during the afternoon training. Please make him a bowl of soup.”

“……”

Lu Anning, who was too tired to complain, still did as she was told under the gaze of her mother.

He filled a bowl of soup, lowered his head, and placed it directly next to Sui Jingxing’s bowl, afraid to have eye contact with him for more than a second.

“Okay, let’s eat.”

Mr. Lu is not as radical as Mrs. Lu. He follows the principle of letting nature take its course.

As long as his daughter was happy, she could get along with others however she wanted. Even if they didn’t sleep in the same room as Nian Zhi guessed, it didn’t matter to him at all.

Isn’t it nice not to sleep in the same room?

In this way, if one day in the future, Lu Anning no longer wants to be with this guy, or if he does something to let Lu Anning down, they can just dump him and let him go without any unnecessary involvement.

“Jingxing, guess which dish Lu Anning made.”

“Scrambled eggs with chives?”

“clever!”

“How does it taste? Is it delicious?”

“It’s good, very much to my taste.”

In fact, he guessed this simply because it was placed in front of him, and his mother-in-law kept signaling him to eat more of this dish.

Of course, it would be better if leeks did not have the effects he knew about.
