The little drama queen is both capricious and naughty, but her military officer husband insists on s

Lu Yanxun wanted to say a few more words, but seeing how afraid Jiang Zao was of him, he could only swallow his words.

His thin lips were taut, and after a long pause, he softened his tone slightly and spoke:

"I'm sorry, I startled you. I didn't mean to be mean to you, I just wanted to stop you from overthinking."

Jiang Zao's inner monologue: Is it really just me overthinking, and not you getting angry out of embarrassment? And, bro, you're saying you don't want to be fierce? What does it mean to want to be fierce? It would be more like you want to tear me apart with a single look?

Jiang Zao didn't believe that Lu Yanxun didn't want to be mean to her.

Furthermore, she believed that Lu Yanxun was so fierce because he was embarrassed and angry.

Did her words just now hurt his pride?

Jiang Zao ignored Lu Yanxun and only looked him up and down with her round eyes.

Lu Yanxun could tell from her cautious manner that she was terrified of him.

Thinking that she had just been kicked by the child and cried in pain, and then scolded by him, Lu Yanxun felt a little guilty.

In the end, he had no choice but to back down: "I'm sorry, I apologize to you. I shouldn't have yelled at you."

Lu Yanxun's series of words gradually lowered Jiang Zao's guard.

They've become much bolder.

Jiang Zao stared intently at Lu Yanxun, hesitated for a moment, and then asked him, "Lu Yanxun, can I ask you a question?"

"ask."

"You promised you wouldn't yell at me."

I promise you, I won't yell at you.

"You absolutely cannot hit me."

Lu Yanxun: "..."

He found that his patience always reached new heights because of ginger and jujubes.

"I certainly won't hit you." Lu Yanxun calmly squeezed out these words through gritted teeth.

Finally, he even forced a smile, just to make himself look less fierce.

God knows how much restraint he used to achieve that smile.

For the sake of the children.

Lu Yan pondered.

Yes, he was so patient because of the child, not because of Jiang Zao herself.

Only after receiving a definite reply from Lu Yanxun did Jiang Zao reluctantly believe him.

So she asked, "Are you angry or embarrassed?"

"What do you mean?" Lu Yanxun asked, trying to use the softest tone he could muster at that moment.

"About you and Su Xinyue..." Jiang Zao said while observing Lu Yanxun's expression.

Be ready to shut up at any time.

After being scolded just now, Jiang Zao has learned her lesson.

She wouldn't be foolish enough to walk right into his line of fire again.

“Su Xinyue and I are fine.” Lu Yanxun looked at Jiang Zao and deliberately slowed down his speech to explain to her, “Jiang Zao, Su Xinyue and I have nothing going on, and we are not dating.”

"Really?" Actually, Jiang Zao was a little skeptical.

But hearing Lu Yanxun speak so earnestly, they quickly went from disbelief to skepticism.

"Are you and Su Xinyue not dating, or have you already broken up?"

Lu Yanxun thought that Jiang Zao had mistakenly believed that he had been dating Su Xinyue because of Lu Yanting's words.

To prevent Jiang Zao from continuing to misunderstand, Lu Yanxun solemnly explained, "I have never dated her. Don't listen to Tingting and the others' nonsense."

Jiang Zao defended herself, saying, "I didn't just hear Tingting and the others talking nonsense; that's what everyone else is saying."

That's what she said, based on the memories she had after transmigrating.

Lu Yanxun pressed down on the corners of his lips, his tone somewhat indifferent: "I don't know who spread these rumors, but it's really not true. She and I have always been ordinary playmates since we were little. Since she moved away, we've only exchanged a few letters over the years, which were just normal greetings."

"Later I was transferred to the front line of the border and stopped writing. Not long ago, I don't know where she found out where I was, she sent me a few letters, but I didn't reply to any of them."

Lu Yanxun's words were so informative that Jiang Zao couldn't process them all at once.

As she processed what he had said, she asked him blankly, "Why didn't you reply?"

Lu Yanxun glanced at Jiang Zao, then turned his face away, his delicate profile slightly tense.

"talk."

Jiangzao continued to digest the food while asking further questions.

Under the dim light of the incandescent bulb, she saw Lu Yanxun's eyelashes flutter slightly.

For some reason, this one moment sent a shiver down Jiang Zao's spine.

For some reason, Jiang Zao suddenly felt that something had changed.

My mind was still blank, but the corners of my mouth couldn't help but turn up in a smile.

Jiang Zao belatedly came to her senses and realized what was happening.

Then, belatedly, I realized that something seemed to be welling up inside me.

Like a seed whose name is unknown, it is slowly taking root and sprouting.

"Lu Yanxun, tell me, why didn't you reply to her letter?"

Even Jiang Zao didn't realize that her tone had unknowingly become sweet.

It has a sweetness that comes with an unconscious softness.

It sounds a bit like she's being coquettish.

Lu Yanxun also noticed the change in Jiang Zao's words.

He turned to look at Jiang Zao and found that the fear and doubt in her eyes had completely disappeared.

Instead, there was a faint smile and twinkling starlight.

Now it was Lu Yanxun's turn to be suspicious: How could this woman change her expression faster than turning the pages of a book? What was she up to now?

Jiang Zao's eyes curved like crescent moons, and the smile in them grew stronger.

Why aren't you answering me?

Lu Yanxun glanced at her again and inexplicably found her smile irritating.

He didn't want to answer her anymore.

Lu Yanxun turned his face away again, seemingly expressing his refusal through his actions.

Surprisingly, Jiang Zao wasn't angry this time.

He even took the initiative to say, "Let me guess, is it because your great-grandmother told you that you're married and have a family now, so you can't reply to other girls anymore?"

Lu Yanxun frowned, awkwardly remaining silent.

Although that was indeed the case, he didn't want to tell Jiang Zao.

Seeing Lu Yanxun's awkwardness, Jiang Zao couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.

"So that means you and Su Xinyue are really just childhood sweethearts, not a couple?"

Lu Yanxun kept turning his face away and refused to answer Jiang Zao's question, so she simply hugged the quilt and moved back to the edge of the bed.

That silly grin still lingered on his face.

"What are you laughing at?" Lu Yanxun asked coldly, frowning.

Now he was truly enraged.

Jiang Zao's smile is too much to bear.

Even though she stopped avoiding him and even moved closer to him, he still didn't want to talk to her.

"Answer my question first." Jiang Zao was already sitting on the very edge of the bed.

She moved from the distance furthest from Lu Yanxun to the distance closest to him.

"There's nothing to answer," Lu Yanxun said coldly.

Jiang Zao covered her mouth with both hands to avoid laughing out loud.

The coldness between Lu Yanxun's brows intensified visibly.

He lifted his eyelids with a gloomy expression and glanced at Jiang Zao: "Jiang Zao, can you please stop laughing?"

"Oh, oh." Jiang Zao covered her mouth and nodded vigorously.

"Pfft..."

I couldn't help but laugh.

Lu Yanxun's face suddenly darkened, and a fierce look appeared between his brows, as if he was about to strangle Jiang Zao to death at any moment.

However, Jiang Zao was no longer afraid of him.

However, she still apologized to him gently: "I'm sorry, I apologize to you, I shouldn't have laughed...hehe...sorry, sorry...hehe..."

Lu Yanxun gritted his teeth: "..."

This woman...

Suddenly, I felt that Jiang Zao was more pleasing to the eye when she was afraid of him.

Seeing Lu Yanxun's tight lips and thin lips that were almost pressed into a line, Jiang Zao pulled one of his arms and hugged him.

"Okay, I won't laugh anymore, I really won't." Jiang Zao bit her lip hard, deliberately hurting herself to stop laughing.

However, little effect has been achieved.

It hurt, but she still couldn't help but want to laugh.

Lu Yanxun didn't want to talk to Jiang Zao and tried to pull his arm away.

Jiang Zao hugged him even tighter, not letting him break free.

"If you answer my last question, I really won't laugh anymore. Whoever laughs is a puppy. If you don't believe me, let's pinky swear."

Jiang Zao secretly pinched her thigh hard under the covers to barely stop herself from laughing.

Then, trying to appear serious, she extended her little finger to Lu Yanxun.

Lu Yanxun's expression improved slightly when he saw that she had really stopped smiling.

She extended her little finger and casually hooked it with her little finger.

After hooking, quickly pull away.

Seeing this, Jiang Zao couldn't help but laugh again.

Fortunately, he managed to hold back.

Have you ever had a girl you liked growing up?

Jiang Zao asked this question very seriously and nervously: "You can't lie, you have to tell the truth."

"And what about you?" Lu Yanxun looked down at Jiang Zao and asked back as if possessed.

Jiang Zao was a little stunned because she didn't expect Lu Yanxun to ask her the same question.

Lu Yanxun noticed her expression.

After she was stunned, a faint sense of displeasure welled up inside her.

This slight displeasure made him not want to talk to Jiang Zao anymore.

“I haven’t.” Jiang Zao looked into Lu Yanxun’s eyes and answered with utmost seriousness and sincerity, “From childhood to adulthood, I have never had a boy I liked.”

After answering, Jiang Zao quietly added in her mind: "It didn't exist before, it doesn't exist now, but that doesn't mean it won't exist in the future."

She thought, "In the future, there should be one."

"And what about you?" Jiang Zao suppressed her joy and pestered Lu Yanxun, "I've already answered you, but you haven't answered me yet."

Her tone was slightly coquettish.

Lu Yanxun's reaction was even more awkward than before.

He turned his face to the side again.

All that was left for Jiang Zao was a cold, hard profile.

"No." Lu Yanxun coldly uttered two words.

Although Lu Yanxun's tone was very cold, it did not stop Jiang Zao from being overjoyed.

She hugged Lu Yanxun's arm tighter: "So that means neither of us had anyone we liked before we got married?"

Lu Yanxun didn't speak, but his lips tightened even more.

Jiang Zao still doesn't know what Lu Yanxun is being awkward about.

All she knew was that from this moment on, everything had changed.

She did not ruin anyone's relationship.

She wasn't a mistress.

She no longer needs to consider divorcing Lu Yanxun.

Jiang Zao started giggling again.

Lu Yanxun frowned and turned to look at her: "Why are you smiling again?"

"I want to laugh." Jiang Zao could no longer hold back and grinned. "I'm sorry, I can't help it, I really want to laugh."

"So what are you laughing at?" Lu Yanxun's face darkened, his dark eyes fixed on Jiang Zao's smiling face.

Jiang Zao's little face was flushed from smiling, and she looked a little silly.

It's not quite the same as usual.

Although she was still smiling, she didn't seem so unapproachable anymore.

"I'm laughing at myself because I think I've gotten lucky," Jiang Zao said without hiding anything.

"Lucky?" Lu Yanxun was puzzled.

Jiang Zao nodded vigorously: "Yes, lucky."

Ginger jujube, you're so lucky, you know that!

Do you know you've gotten a handsome, successful, and rich husband for free?

Ginger and jujube, you...

How could you be so lucky?!

Good heavens, what kind of magical time travel is this?

Jiang Zao couldn't help but laugh and ask the heavens: God, is this a surprise you've given me?

Thank God, she loved this time-travel journey.

She has a father, a mother, younger siblings, relatives, and friends.

She also has a handsome, outstanding, and pure husband, two babies who are about to be born, and her in-laws who protect her.

This...this...it's only been a few days?

A major plot twist!

Jiang Zao was overwhelmed by the sudden joy, and felt completely dazed and confused.

All he did was laugh like an idiot.

The towel wrapped around Jiang Zao's head came undone, and her long, black hair, still damp, fell down.

"Come here and dry your hair."

She couldn't sleep with her hair dry, so Lu Yanxun ignored what Jiang Zao was giggling about and started drying her hair with a dry towel.

Lu Yanxun asked Jiang Zao to turn her back to him, but Jiang Zao refused.

I have to look at him face to face.

Lu Yanxun couldn't refuse her, so he had her lie on the bed with her head on his lap, so that she could see him and he could easily dry her hair.

"Lu Yanxun".

Jiang Zao looked at Lu Yanxun, who was carefully drying her hair, and couldn't help but call his name.

Lu Yanxun shifted his gaze from the dark hair and gave some to Jiang Zao.

"Ah."

He gave a perfunctory reply, and seeing that she had no intention of continuing to speak, he shifted his gaze back to the hair in his hand.

Jiangzao's hair is very black and smooth, and it feels great even when it's half-wet.

Strands of damp hair slipped through Lu Yanxun's fingers, feeling cool to the touch.

At first, he was only focused on drying his hair and didn't pay attention to the texture.

But as the moisture in his hair gradually decreased, Lu Yanxun's attention unknowingly drifted away.

He used his fingers like a comb to part the already smooth hair in his palms, and the fragrance of shampoo wafted up with his movements.

It smells like jasmine.

She suits this flavor perfectly, Lu Yan thought.

"Lu Yanxun?" Jiang Zao called out again.

Lu Yanxun turned his attention away from Jiang Zao's hair, and after a moment, looked at Jiang Zao's face.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yan asked.

He appeared calm, but his heart had actually skipped a beat.

This feeling was wonderful, but it was fleeting, and he didn't have time to savor it.

"Nothing much, I just wanted to call you." Jiang Zao tilted her head back, half-closing her eyes as she looked at him with his head down, her gaze somewhat unfocused.

Lu Yanxun looked away and remained silent.

He didn't ask Jiang Zao why she wanted to call him.

I don't want to ask.

"Lu Yanxun, don't sleep on the floor tonight, just sleep on the bed." Jiang Zao opened her eyes slightly and looked at his handsome features with admiration. "This bed is very big. We've been married for so long, and you've never slept on it even once."

Hehe, this is her husband.

My handsome husband.

A wonderful husband.

A wealthy husband.

Tsk.

Having a husband is great too.

Jiangzao was overjoyed and felt elated.

The next second, Lu Yanxun refused without hesitation: "I'll sleep on the floor."

Jiang Zao narrowed her beautiful eyes and said with dissatisfaction, "Why did you refuse? Do you suspect I'll sneak up on you in the middle of the night?"
