Chapter 196: Chapter 193 Trampling on the Rippling Spring Water [-50 More]

——————

The gaze returned, and they began to talk about what happened after Zhang Shan Ni’s abdomen was unexpectedly seen—

Let’s not mention how Xie Jingchen finally coaxed Zhang Shan Ni; after the couple spent dozens of minutes doing lovey-dovey things in the room, it ended with Zhang Shan Ni getting hungry and then the two sweetly having breakfast together.

The breakfast was packed and brought back by Xie Jingchen directly from the canteen, consisting of a pot of white porridge, specially provided beef balls, and radish greens that came with the porridge.

As she ate, when the heat on her face finally subsided, the little village girl opened her big almond eyes, sporting a fair face like jade, and after finishing chewing on the meat with her red lips, she curiously spoke up.

"By the way, Brother Chen, what happened to Lin Zhizhang?" Zhang Shan Ni suddenly remembered something as if she had forgotten after being fed a beef ball by her man, and finally inquired about Lin Aihong’s well-being.

"He won’t die." Seeing that she swallowed, Xie Jingchen timely fed her a spoonful of white porridge, "Wife, let’s be mindful of prenatal education, that kind of person isn’t worth your concern."

"Oh, it’s not concern, just curious." Being fed a spoonful of porridge at just the right temperature, the clearly baby-like Zhang Shan Ni looked at him innocently, "Will Commander Jiang Rong be punished?"

"He will be, definitely. But he has backing, you don’t need to worry about him."

She glared at her man, "I’m not worried about him, I just feel a bit sorry for Lin Aifei, having such an unreliable sister... Has her husband done anything to her?"

"Not sure. But Jiang Hongrong is quite upright. Eat up, stop talking." Xie Jingchen felt annoyed when his wife showed concern for another man.

When he saw his little wife looking frail as if overwhelmed by waves of sensuality... Xie Jingchen clenched his jaw and continued the feeding with forced calm.

"..." Zhang Shan Ni looked at him pitifully; after much difficulty, her man returned and she just wanted to have a good chat, but even that was hard to come by!

Apparently, the little wife was only in the mood for gossip after she was full.

"Wife, don’t look at me like that." Xie Jingchen took several deep breaths and finally covered her sparkling almond eyes with his large hand, cleaning the porridge from the corner of her mouth—

"Um..." Zhang Shan Ni, blushing with embarrassment, pushed against his chest, grumbling dissatisfiedly, "Brother Chen, there’s a tissue!"

Using your tongue to lick, are you trying to seduce her, or are you actually ’wiping’ her mouth?

Whining, it gets wetter the more you wipe!

"Does it feel better now?" Xie Jingchen didn’t mind her little tantrums, just remembered he couldn’t control himself earlier and feared he might have hurt her.

While speaking, his large hand gently massaged her arm. Seeing her comfortable and tiredly leaning against him with half-closed eyes, he simply picked her up and briskly walked back to the room.

"Brother Chen?" Zhang Shan Ni was startled when the man picked her up, and as soon as they returned to the room, her keen sense of smell detected the lingering sensual scent in the room.

The blush that had just faded was once again climbing onto her fair face.

"Wife, I have to go to a meeting in a little while, you’re tired so get some good sleep, and if you’re uncomfortable tell me, okay?"

Seeing her healthy and rosy complexion, Xie Jingchen finally felt relieved. It seems like he needs to find an old friend to properly spread some basic knowledge about caring for pregnant women.

"I’m not feeling unwell; both the babies and I are doing well." Zhang Shanni, upon hearing that he was leaving, wrapped her arms tightly around his neck, reluctant to let him go.

Xie Jingchen also wanted to stay to take care of his little wife, but time was really running short. He bent down to kiss the tip of her nose, "Wifey, sleep well. I’ll be back after work."

"Okay... I’ll wait for you." The rhythm of just eating and sleeping... Although Zhang Shanni felt like she was about to become the companion of a certain dim-witted creature, seeing the man’s concern for her, she willingly let him help her take off her coat and tuck her in snugly.

"Brother Chen, no matter how much of a hurry you’re in, have a sip of congee before you leave. It should be cool enough by now."

Earlier, the man was only focused on feeding her. He had casually eaten a few beef balls, and seeing him off to work now, he wouldn’t be back until half-past eleven, having started drills before five in the morning.

"Alright." Xie Jingchen nodded, feeling the need to dote on her a bit more when he saw her obedient and cute demeanor.

Of course, Xie Jingchen would take his wife’s advice. He left the room and showed his usual quickness—an inherent trait for men who typically eat fast, amplified by the speed he developed from his training.

Others might take five minutes for breakfast, but he finished everything in three minutes flat—cleaning out the congee, meatballs, and dried radish on the table.

Today was quite important, and he wasn’t sure if he could get off work on time.

Thus, before leaving, he specially asked Li Xiaxia to come downstairs and keep his wife company when she was free.

Due to the New Year, many military spouses wouldn’t have work during this period, including Li Xiaxia.

She and Chen Dalang didn’t go back to their hometown for the New Year as they had already visited their respective families earlier. At this time, most children in Rong Wei were staying with their grandparents.

Because of the lower rank, they could only get a single room. Not everyone was like Xie Jingchen, who had Elder Liu, the ultimate weapon backing him, making several calls to his superior the moment he heard Zhang Shanni, whom he took a liking to, was going to follow to Rong District.

Most spouses of persons at Commander Rong Level could only get a one-bedroom, one-living room, one-bathroom, and one-kitchen apartment, which was a good standard, considering X County was a special administrative region, better than an average county-level city.

Indeed, as soon as the officer class was complete, everyone received frontline information, and then, orders were given.

Those assigned to missions were mostly those who had just returned from leave, with the entire list present, along with quite a few additional names added to the combat readiness roster.

At the same time, instructors left behind to train the new recruits were no less busy, as there was a major competition for the new recruits across the entire Rong District coming up in June!

Not to mention Rong District, just within their X Division, there were five regiments along with non-combat units subordinate to the logistics department, such as farms, the special reconnaissance company under the reconnaissance department with radar stations, plus the division headquarters and other units, making the X Division quite vast.

Those left behind to ’mind the house’ had to maintain normal operations and boost the combat capabilities of the new recruits to the utmost...

But with veteran instructors like Xie Jingchen summoned to the frontlines, those instructors left behind were also in need of training in the eyes of someone at Xie Jingchen’s level in Rong Wei!

Well, pair up the new and old ’Brother Rong’ to train the fresh recruits a bit, and they might just pass muster.

Based on Xie Jingchen’s personal assessment of the campaign duration, it wouldn’t possibly exceed three months.

Firstly, both sides couldn’t afford the prolonged consumption of provisions. Secondly, the national leaders wanted to demonstrate authority and surely would not continue to allow the opponent to challenge them tepidly.

Once these military officials, including Rong Zhi, were in position, the campaign would immediately kick off.
