Chapter 46

Hearing the pleasant, low voice, Jiang Muning subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound, and sure enough, she saw Qin Muye walking towards her.

But his usually cold face was full of coldness.

“Brother Muye?” Jiang Muning was surprised. Usually at this time, he was still at the army.

Qin Muye walked straight to her side, his long, strong arms directly wrapped around her waist.

Under Jiang Muning’s surprised gaze, Qin Muye, as if declaring ownership, pulled her into his arms.

“Who is he?” Qin Muye’s deep voice sounded, feigning ignorance.

Zhou Yang widened his eyes, looking incredulously at the intimate couple in front of him… They…

Jiang Muning’s heart skipped a beat. Since they got married, this was the first time he had held her in public.

If anyone who knew Qin Muye passed by at this moment, they would surely find it hard to believe what they saw.

“This is Zhou Zhiqing, he lived in our village for a few years.” Jiang Muning answered truthfully.

Qin Muye looked at her, listening to her ordinary tone, without a ripple of emotion.

As if Zhou Yang was just an unfamiliar stranger to her.

If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, heard her say it with his own ears, he would have thought he was mistaken.

Qin Muye raised his head, his cold eyes fell on Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang shivered, staring blankly at the man in military uniform in front of him. He was probably twenty-three or twenty-four years old, but his shoulder boards revealed his extraordinary status.

As for his face, it was very handsome, with sharp features and excellent bone structure.

He exuded a cold aura, even standing in the sunlight, one could feel a chill from him.

He suddenly remembered hearing that Jiang Muning was engaged to a man six or seven years older than her.

Could that man be him?

Not ignoring his gaze, Qin Muye tightened his arm around Jiang Muning, his sharp eyes looking at him: “I’m Qin Muye, Ningning’s husband.”

Those words carried a clear declaration of ownership.

Zhou Yang’s face turned pale, he looked at the couple standing side by side in shock. Although there was an age gap, they looked very well-matched.

“You, you’re married?” Zhou Yang finally found his voice, unsure.

Jiang Muning’s eyes were clear as she replied: “Yeah, my husband is a soldier, otherwise why would I join the army and live in the military dependents’ compound?”

“I thought…” Zhou Yang was speechless for a moment.

Qin Muye’s eyes were sharp, filled with a strong sense of warning: “Zhou Zhiqing, Ningning is my wife, I hope you stay away from her in the future.”

Hearing the word “Ningning,” Jiang Muning’s ears tingled. Why did this man suddenly call her by her nickname?

Looking at Qin Muye’s gaze towards Zhou Yang, was it her illusion, why did it seem to contain a hint of murderous intent?

Zhou Yang’s face flushed red, he lowered his head and apologized: “I’m sorry, I understand.”

Thinking of the confession he almost blurted out, Zhou Yang felt embarrassed and wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

“Muning, I have something to do, I’ll go first.” Before Jiang Muning could speak, Zhou Yang quickly lowered his head, turned around, and left immediately.

“Hey, why are you leaving like that?” Jiang Muning was surprised, they hadn’t even decided when to have dinner.

Qin Muye heard this, his face darkened, and he said in a bad mood: “Don’t you want to see him go?”

Sure enough, she liked him.

Thinking about this, Qin Muye’s eyes held a hint of grievance as he looked at her.

Jiang Muning was surprised: “No, it’s just that he gave me the conch, and I haven’t properly thanked him. But Brother Muye, why did you come back at this time?”

Hearing this, Qin Muye pursed his lips, his deep eyes looked at her, making it impossible to guess his thoughts.

“If I didn’t come back, would I watch the meat in my mouth be snatched away?” Qin Muye said gloomily.

Hearing his sour tone, Jiang Muning turned around, they stood facing each other, their bodies lightly touching.

Jiang Muning tiptoed closer to him, a smile in her eyes, she asked playfully: “You wouldn’t be jealous, would you?”

Qin Muye neither admitted nor denied it, he said in a low voice: “I have something to do, I’ll go back to the army first.”

He was just training his subordinates, and he happened to need to use binoculars to observe the situation in the distance. He accidentally saw Zhou Yang waiting in front of the military dependents’ compound.

He immediately thought of Jiang Muning, worried that his wife would be stolen, he quickly left the binoculars and came here.

Afraid that if he was late, his wife would become someone else’s.

Reluctantly releasing his hand from her waist, Qin Muye pretended to be calm and walked towards the military district.

Looking at his back, Jiang Muning’s bright eyes were full of surprise: “He really came to catch me cheating, does he have eyes in the back of his head?”

Then, she sighed and said: “Men are all the same, they don’t want their wives to be coveted, regardless of love or not.”

After all, no one wants a green hat on their head.

Back home, Jiang Muning went to her room, then secretly put the phoenix tail conch into the space and submitted the task.

With the completion of the order, Jiang Muning successfully received the money and points.

Checking her assets, Jiang Muning was surprised to find that her account already had one thousand yuan.

Even if they split it, they would each have five hundred yuan.

Back in the real world, Jiang Muning hummed a happy tune. She thought she would find some time to go to the department store and spend some money.

It was time to buy summer clothes, and she could also get a refrigerator…

Thinking about these things, Jiang Muning laughed happily.

Jiang Muning was about to make dinner, but she suddenly realized that she was out of cilantro, so she thought she would borrow some from Liu Mei.

“Sister-in-law, can I borrow some cilantro?” Jiang Muning shouted to Liu Mei, who was working in the yard.

“Just pick as much as you want, don’t be polite.” Liu Mei said enthusiastically.

“Thank you, sister-in-law.” Jiang Muning said, she went to the grassy area by the wall, looking for tender cilantro to pick.

Women are gossipy, Liu Mei suddenly remembered something and walked over: “Muning, was Captain Qin at home last night?”

Jiang Muning was puzzled and replied: “No, Brother Muye just came back this morning, what’s wrong, sister-in-law?”

Liu Mei was surprised: “He really didn’t come back? When I went to buy groceries this morning, I heard that Captain Qin came out of Captain Lu’s dorm at five in the morning, I thought everyone was just gossiping.”

Hearing this, Jiang Muning was taken aback: Could it be that Qin Muye was at Lu Haotian’s last night?

“Sister Muning, did you and Captain Qin have a fight? You just got married, logically, he should be eager to come back and see you after closed training, why did he go to Captain Lu’s?”

Jiang Muning smiled awkwardly: “We didn’t have a fight.”

“Really?”

“Really.”

“It’s good that you didn’t fight. I see you as a little sister. Men need to be coaxed, otherwise, if you have a fight, other women will covet them, and if they get a chance, we’ll suffer.” Liu Mei said earnestly.

Jiang Muning smiled and nodded in agreement, she picked the cilantro and slipped away.

Back home, Jiang Muning digested the news she had just received: “Could it be that Qin Muye slept with Lu Haotian last night?”
