Chapter 26

Lu Anning, who was in the bathroom, was extremely anxious at this moment.

Just now, I followed Sui Jingxing’s instructions and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

The moment I came in, I always felt like something was missing, but I never thought of what it was.

I took off my clothes and habitually threw the dirty clothes I wore during the day into the bucket of water mixed with detergent beside me to soak, and then started my bath happily.

Halfway through washing, she finally remembered what was missing.

She didn’t bring any change of clothes!

I had been feeling somewhat happy, but that disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by anxiety.

What should she do?

I couldn’t shout or call out, and I couldn’t run back to my room naked to get clothes.

Looking at the dirty clothes that had been soaked by the water, I felt as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

She tried knocking on the bathroom door, but there was no movement outside. Sui Jingxing must have finished washing the dishes and went out.

That’s right, there are only a few bowls, even if it takes a minute to wash each one, I should have left long ago.

She continued banging on the door.

The bathroom and the outer room where my parents sleep are separated by a kitchen, so if I shout a little louder they might be able to hear it.

Unfortunately, Lu’s father and mother were not at home at the moment. They were walking side by side outside, about seven or eight hundred meters away from home, and it was impossible for them to hear her knocking on the door.

After knocking on the door to no avail, Lu Anning squatted by the bathroom door, wanting to cry but unable to cry. It seemed like God was going to kill her!

Fortunately, it was the end of June and the weather was hot. If it had been winter, she would have frozen to death in this cold bathroom.

On the other side, Sui Jingxing, who had just returned to the bedroom after washing the dishes, picked up a book that Lu Anning had bought at the Xinhua Bookstore and sat on a chair flipping through it casually.

She really likes reading. Just two days after she bought a new book, her handwriting was already on it.

It is said that handwriting reflects a person’s character, but Lu Anning’s handwriting forms a huge contrast with her personality and appearance.

She looks like a gentle, quiet, and kind-hearted girl, but her handwriting is as smooth as flowing water, elegant and graceful, and also a little smart.

It reminded him again of Lu Anning’s expression when she suddenly opened her eyes at noon today and was caught by him. There was a hint of panic in her expression, and her eyes kept rolling around, as if she was thinking about what to do.

It feels like a child doing something bad and being caught by an adult.

She thought she had concealed her expression well, but he caught her instantaneous reaction.

As he thought about it, Sui Jingxing unconsciously smiled and his expression became extremely gentle, completely different from his usual stern and cold appearance. Even he himself was not aware of his change.

He looked at Lu Anning’s notes in the book carefully. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and stood up from his chair.

Just now, in order to avoid embarrassment between the two of them, he suggested that she take a shower. Lu Anning did not refute, but just followed him in stupidly, with nothing in her hands.

He immediately put down the book and ran out of the room to look for his mother-in-law, but there was no one outside.

At this time, he finally heard a knock on the door coming from the direction of the bathroom.

He hurried over to comfort her: “Lu Anning, don’t worry, I’ll go find clothes for you right away.”

Hearing his voice, Lu Anning felt mixed feelings of sadness and joy.

The good news was that I was finally about to be rescued from the bathroom.

The sad thing is, why is it him? Where is mom?

No matter what, no matter who he is, just listen to it.

Standing naked in the bathroom, although it’s not cold, it feels awkward!

After comforting Lu Anning, Sui Jingxing quickly ran back to the room.

I opened the wardrobe and took out a set of plain clothes. When I was about to turn around, I suddenly thought of something and placed my hand on the middle drawer. After hesitating for two seconds, I finally opened it.

What caught my eye were some intimate apparel with very little fabric.

On the left were her panties, and on the right were her folded clothes.

He closed his eyes, followed fate, grabbed one piece from each side, hid it between his coat and trousers, and ran to the bathroom.

There was no handle outside the bathroom, nor was there a place to put clothes. If he put the clean clothes directly on the floor, it would obviously be inappropriate, so he finally knocked on the door gently.

“Lu Anning, I got it, please open the door.”

A moment later, he heard the sound of the bolt being pulled open in the bathroom door, and then an arm as smooth as ice jade stretched out from inside.

Lu Anning grabbed around randomly, and while wiping her clothes, she also touched his warm fingers, which formed a sharp contrast with her own coldness.

Regardless of her inner nervousness, she quickly grabbed the clothes and locked the bathroom door again.

She leaned against the door, holding the clothes, her heart pounding.

Why did it feel so exciting when I was just taking a piece of clothing from him? It was really strange!

Sui Jingxing was outside the bathroom. He looked down at his empty palms, then at the closed bathroom door. His eyes moved slightly, and an inexplicable ripple rose in his heart.

With full of confusion in my heart, I turned around and walked out of the house.

It seems that I have to find time to talk to Political Commissar Tan tomorrow and ask him to analyze the reason why he has become so strange. He is best at ideological work. If anyone in the army has ideological or psychological changes, the first person he will look for must be him. Political Commissar Tan is experienced and must know the reason why he has become so strange in the past two days.

Lu Anning put on her clothes and came out of the bathroom, slowly returning to the room. Fortunately, Sui Jingxing was not there at the moment, which made her feel relieved.

In the past two or three days, the awkwardness between the two of them has reached its limit.

First, I found out that I used him as a sleeping doll and hugged him to sleep. Then, I was caught peeping at him and fell into his arms. I didn’t bring any clothes when I took a shower just now, and he even gave me some underwear…

Ouch! Damn it! He has seen all of her underwear!

Lu Anning rolled over and over on the bed in frustration, pounding his pillow hard, venting his anger on it as if it were its owner.

Sui Jingxing came out of the house and ran to the training ground.

He first ran around the field ten times, but that wasn’t enough, so he lay down and did push-ups like crazy, as if he wanted to tire himself to death.

“Who is that? Can you see clearly?”

Shen Meihong, who was taking a walk after dinner, saw a person exercising crazily on the playground and asked Chen Yongfeng next to him curiously.

“I can’t see clearly. Maybe it’s some brat who was punished by his leader and is completing his extra training mission.”

“Tsk tsk, young guys are full of energy. Unlike you, I guess you’d be exhausted if I asked you to do a hundred push-ups right now.”

“What age are they, what age am I!”

“If I were 20 or 30 years younger, a thousand push-ups wouldn’t be a problem for me.”

He is fifty-one now, and is no longer old enough to be compared with young men in their early twenties.

“Da Lu is only six years younger than you, and he looks a lot younger than you.”

“Is this true or false?”

“Why do I feel like I’m almost like him?”

“This is your illusion!”

“Am I that old already?”

“Of course not. Look at the wrinkles at the corners of your eyes. They can almost pinch a mosquito to death.”

“The day before yesterday, Nianzhi said that I looked younger than before.”

“It was just a polite remark. I never thought you would take it seriously.”

“……”

Chen Yongfeng felt as if he was pierced by thousands of arrows and it took him a long time to calm down.

I decided to secretly use the facial oil that my wife usually uses starting tonight.

He also needs to take care of himself and become younger!
