But it was too late. All Su Nianxi, who was in a sleepwalking state, left Lu Chenting with was a slight "creak" sound of the bedroom door closing; Lu Chenting could only watch in despair.

Well, their bedroom doors are opposite each other, separated by a 1.2-meter-wide corridor, just a few steps away.

Lu Chenting: “…”

Lu Chenting thought Su Nianxi would not leave his bedroom and would just wander around in the bedroom.

[Haha, there aren't so many "I thought" and "you thought" in this world, there's only the unexpected "he thought"]

Lu Chenting, who was 1.89 meters tall, stood in the corridor, his tall figure imprinted on the corridor; staring at his own scratching figure, his eyes bloodshot, Lu Chenting frowned in thought, thinking over and over, but still puzzled.

……

Ding--

"Sleepwalking, yes, it's sleepwalking!!!"

Lu Chenting, who was puzzled, suddenly realized and remembered that his uncle Chen Yiming, who was a doctor in the military hospital, had said that there was a disease called sleepwalking.

People with this disease will leave their bed and walk, or even run, during sleep, making them difficult to wake up. If they are woken up, they will be in a state of confusion and have partial or complete memory of what happened. ...

Sleepwalking also has accompanying symptoms.

The accompanying symptoms may involve routine behaviors that, due to their inappropriate timing, allow the person to move around in a familiar environment, navigate around obstacles, or avoid falls.

Thinking of this, Lu Chenting's doubts were resolved, and his face, which had been solemn, suddenly became cheerful and his frown relaxed.

But the clouds of sorrow had just been dispersed, and the bright moon had not yet appeared; the meticulous Lu Chenting suddenly looked worried again.

"No, what if she sleepwalks again tonight? It could easily cause an accident."

"The bedroom window? Well, her bedroom window is the same as the other bedroom windows, all have iron bars installed, so I'm not worried. But, but what if she opens the door again..."

"She would still come into my bedroom like this??? If not——"

"If not, wouldn't it be very dangerous if she ran to the stairs? In the middle of the night, even if Comrade Su could successfully go down the stairs to the first floor, if she confusedly opened the door on the first floor and ran out, she might even..."

The more Lu Chenting thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He couldn't help but feel anxious and terrified. So, Lu Chenting decided to sleep with his bedroom door open tonight, just in case. He also decided that once the Zhu Tao incident was resolved, he would take Comrade Su Nianxi to the hospital for sleepwalking treatment. Yes, he would ask his uncle Chen Yiming to see Comrade Su Nianxi.

"Actually, don't worry, Comrade Su Nianxi, Dr. Su, I can easily manage sleepwalking myself. No problem! There is nothing to worry about. ★Hehe~~~★"

After that, the straight man with a steely body also has a delicate mind, can also be warm and care about others!!!

Deputy Commander Lu, is this because of the fuss in the bedroom just now? Or is it because the central air conditioning doesn't discriminate between men and women? Or is it because there are too many females, so the central air conditioning starts up? Oh, eh—

***

"Su Nianxi!!!"

Lu Chenting, with his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs, lay squarely on his 1.8-meter-tall bed (well, his bulk made the bed seem a bit cramped). He murmured the words "Su Nianxi" leisurely. His emotions were out of control, and he suddenly became inexplicably irritated. Within that irritation, there was also a trace of inexplicable emotion, and it was this trace of inexplicable emotion that disturbed him—

The Lu family, especially Lu Chenting's grandparents, had been repeatedly instilling these three words into Lu Chenting whenever they had the chance, starting when he was six or seven years old. They told him that he had a betrothed to a fiancée named "Su Nianxi", his future daughter-in-law.

Lu Chenting has a free and unrestrained nature. He yearns for military service, for galloping on the battlefield, for being alone, fearless of bullets and guns, for making contributions to the country, and for winning peace for the people.

So, later… later, his wish came true and he canceled his childhood engagement with Comrade Su Nianxi. But now!!! Comrade Su Nianxi had made a dramatic appearance at his house, and had even, unbelievably, gotten married to him. They had even slept on the same board tonight, and he had lost control of himself tonight, almost losing everything...

Lu Chenting's brows and eyes returned to their cold state. Although he was filled with irritation, he knew very well that he had no aversion to Comrade Su Nianxi's body. He even felt a kind of amusement that made him laugh... Well, ever since Qingshan Village, when he rescued Comrade Su Nianxi from the water, he had that strong sense of uncontrollability...

"call--"

"Since that's the case, then accept it."

Lu Chenting, with his brows furrowed and eyes cold, let out a long breath; as irritable as he was, he turned his head to glance out the window where it was pitch black and the north wind was howling, and thought to himself self-righteously.

"Since that's the case, then accept it." Tsk, it made Lu Xiuluo feel like he'd suffered a terrible loss. Who was it just now, on this 1.8-meter-wide bed, with his heart pounding, his soul tumbling, nearly losing his battle and surrendering? It was as if it wasn't him, the first deputy commander of the Lu army. Tomorrow, I'll see if you, the cold and fierce soldier king, don't have a burning gaze, a surging heart, and a lustful mind...

"Well, Comrade Su, what does she look like? She..."

In order to keep an eye on her, Lu Chenting, with his thoughts flying, couldn't help but think of the tenderness just now, and murmured softly.

"Dark, fat, and extremely ugly..."

Lu Chenting, who had a high nose bridge, raised his left hand with thin calluses and touched his straight nose bridge, leisurely recalling what Gu Yiyan yelled at him in the army cafeteria.

"...When you turn off the lights, all the female comrades are the same..." Suddenly, the words of advice from Deputy Commander Chen lingered in his mind again.

"Well, maybe Comrade Su really looks like... But what is certain is that Comrade Su is not as dark as Gu Yiyan said. I saw him that day in Qingshan Village. He was not dark! That's right, not dark." Lu Chenting, with his eyelashes trembling, gathered the quilt and whispered to himself.

He recalled the last time he returned from a mission, the reactions of the soldiers to him, and their comments on Comrade Su Nianxi's appearance; as well as the advice given by the division commander, deputy division commander, and Political Commissar Jiang in the office about marriage and how to treat Comrade Su Nianxi.

In Lu Chenting's opinion, his grandparents must have brought Comrade Su Nianxi to the army when they went to the army to report his and Comrade Su Nianxi's marriage; most of the soldiers in the army must have met Comrade Su Nianxi, otherwise, when he returned from the mission last time, the soldiers from top to bottom in the army would not have looked at him like a monkey and talked about him.

Thinking of this, Lu Chenting began to no longer have much hope for Su Nianxi's appearance.
