523: Chapter 523: A Happy Dream!

The night is endless.

For Tang Xiao, tonight is naturally of the utmost importance.

She once bore countless scars to protect her country and fight evil.

The final operation before her discharge brought her tremendous physical and mental trauma.

Physical wounds can heal, but psychological issues…

Post-war psychological syndrome has always been difficult to improve.

So…

She is more prone to dreaming than others.

Especially the surrounded battles, with heavy losses that engraved deep into her memory, refusing to fade away.

Thus, by day she pondered, by night she dreamed.

In past dreams, she would always find herself back on the battlefield.

Back in the rain of bullets, seeing the sacrifices of her comrades, witnessing the shattered remains…

The memories always made her want to cry, too lonely to bear alone!

Tang Xiao wasn’t as strong as outsiders perceived.

In fact…

What kind of strength was there?

It was nothing more than stubborn perseverance through gritted teeth!

Should she tell people how tragically her comrades died, how heartbreaking that battle was?

Should she cry endlessly, immersed in the past, unable to pull herself together?

Strength!

It was just her wish for others to feel she wasn’t that fragile.

But now.

There was a lover, there was companionship.

A blissful and sweet little family, with no more painfully unbearable memories to bring about nightmares.

This brand-new dream brought her sincere happiness.

…

The sun sets in the west.

The sky is aglow with the light of sunset.

A sense of hunger hits, and her stomach embarrassingly grumbles.

Barely opening her sleepy eyes, she doesn’t have the slightest energy to sit up.

Her vision fluctuates between light and dark, while her dry lips and throat particularly crave water.

Tang Xiao forces her eyes open and sees a man’s face, not particularly handsome, but masculine and rugged.

“Here, have some water first!”

Wu Jie hands her a large cup of brown sugar water.

It replenishes blood and boosts energy.

Tang Xiao is indeed thirsty and quickly finishes it.

“That’s a bit better, go cook now, I’ll lie down for a bit longer!”

Wu Jie gently lays Tang Xiao back down, covers her with a blanket, then turns off the light and leaves the room.

In the warm and comfortable feeling, Tang Xiao drifts off to sleep without realizing it.

When she’s awakened, she can actually smell the scent of fresh food.

Just as she is about to turn over and sit up, Wu Jie stops her.

“Don’t move, I’ll help you!”

First, Wu Jie helps Tang Xiao sit up against the headboard, then he brings the bed table over to the bed.

“What the…

what are you doing?

I’m not a patient!”

“But you’re not much different from one right now!” Wu Jie hands over the bowl and chopsticks, “Hurry up and eat!”

“What about you?

Don’t wait until I’m done and then you eat cold dishes and cold rice, right?” Tang Xiao asks, widening her eyes.

“How could I?

There’s still plenty on the dining table!

If you need more, I’ll go get it for you!”

Saying so, Wu Jie takes off his shoes, climbs onto the bed, and sits beside Tang Xiao.

“Eat something light first, your voice is hoarse.

You must have been shouting a lot in your dreams!”

Tang Xiao gives Wu Jie a resentful look, lowers her head, and starts eating.

Wu Jie sits silently nearby, watching Tang Xiao eat with relish.

With happiness comes the realization that his responsibilities have grown heavier!

After all, Tang Xiao is no ordinary woman, and being her man is by no means an easy task.

“What are you staring at me for?

Is there something dirty on my face?”

Tang Xiao suddenly asks, lifting her gaze.

Wu Jie smiles and says, “Of course not!

My wife is beautiful, naturally stunning, I can’t get enough of looking at her!”

“Smooth talker!

Hurry up and get more food, I’m not full yet!”

Wu Jie is astonished:

“Damn!

Four dishes and a soup, plus a big bowl of rice, and you’re still not full!”

Tang Xiao glares and says angrily:

“What’s the matter?

Afraid I’ll eat you into poverty?

If you can’t afford it, just say so!”

“Cut it out!

Even if you wanted bird’s nest and abalone every day, I could still afford it!

Just wait!”

Wu Jie gets off the bed, takes the bed table away, and soon brings it back with even more food piled on it.

“After you’re done eating, rest a bit then take a bath, and afterward I’ll apply the medicine for you!”

Wu Jie says gently and softly.

Tang Xiao clenches her teeth and nods in agreement.

The experienced doctor had already anticipated this and had prepared the medicine.

Once Tang Xiao has had her fill, Wu Jie clears the bed table and gets the ointment ready for her.

“I’m going to eat, wash dishes, and clean the kitchen.

Can you manage on your own?”

Tang Xiao rolls her eyes at Wu Jie:

“Back in the day, with injuries all over and numerous shrapnel in my body, I still managed to carry a comrade and run for five kilometers!”

“So this injury is nothing!”

Wu Jie laughs and says, “So you mean to say, you can still ‘stay in the fight even with light injuries’ tonight?”

Tang Xiao immediately grows angry and points at the door:

“You lecher!

Get out now!”
