Quick Transmigration: Forbidden to Covet Beautiful NPCs

Chapter 239 A Stunning "Widow" from a Historical Fiction (29)

"Jiji——"

A bird peeked out from the windowsill, chirping incessantly towards the inside.

Wu Tongxue was awakened by the noise, turned over to face outwards, and the first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was a small bird with bright feathers and bright black eyes the size of beans.

"Chirp...?" It tilted its little head, flapped its wings, and flew away.

It's as if they came specifically to wake someone up, and then left once their task was complete.

Having had a good night's sleep, Wu Tongxue had no desire to stay in bed. Mainly, she was a little hungry and needed to get up to eat.

As soon as she stepped outside, Wu Tongxue was taken aback to find someone there.

Looks a bit familiar...

Smelling the familiar scent, I subconsciously turned around and glanced at the back of the mountain. How did he get here?!

"Second Brother? You're here too?" There was another person in the courtyard, the brigade leader, who was puffing on his pipe in the corner, looking quite dazed.

Yan Liang stood a few steps away, his movements halting, the calmness on his face melting away, his eyes filled with a smile, "Xiaoxue, I'm back."

His voice was deep and pleasant, yet it exploded like a firecracker in Wu Tongxue's heart.

They really did come back.

His "widow" status... sure enough, the task progress bar was locked.

Yan Liang walked up to him, bent down to look at his bewildered expression, tucked a strand of hair that was fluttering by his ear behind his ear with his finger, and took his hand at the same time.

"What's wrong? I'm not dead, aren't you happy?" Yan Liang's eyes were half-closed, and the smile on his lips faded slightly.

Wu Tongxue snapped out of her daze. "No."

I just came back too early. I really want to talk to him and ask him to disappear for a while longer, but I know that's wishful thinking.

I'm so hungry, filling my stomach is the most important thing, I'll think about everything else later.

A fragrant aroma wafted towards her nose, whetting her appetite. Wu Tongxue subconsciously turned her head to look at the kitchen, where the aroma was coming from.

"I've cooked a meal, go and try it and see if it suits your taste."

Wu Tongxue glanced at the captain in the corner and wanted to invite him to eat with her, but Yan Liang stopped her, saying, "Second Brother has something to do and has to leave soon. We'll invite him to dinner next time."

As Yan Liang spoke, he glanced at the team leader. He hadn't prepared much; if there were one more person, they wouldn't have enough to eat.

The captain had no appetite at all. He snapped out of his reverie under the watchful eyes of the two men, tapped his pipe on the bench, stood up, waved, and left, saying, "I have to go now. Don't try to stop me. You guys are busy."

Completely unaware of what they were saying, he walked out of the courtyard with his hands behind his back, took a few steps, turned back to close the gate, and then walked away with a deep expression.

As soon as the gate closed, a layer of dust in the corner of the courtyard was shaken off and gently fell.

"I'm going to wash my face and brush my teeth." Brushing away Yan Liang's hand, Wu Tongxue turned to find a basin, unaware of the change in Yan Liang's expression behind her.

Yan Liang took a deep breath, the dark turmoil in his eyes subsided, and his fingers silently clenched into a fist.

It's okay, he'll get used to his loved ones again, just like in his dreams.

Wu Tongxue didn't think too much about it; he was just hungry and wanted to eat.

When I sat down at the table, there was a bowl of sweet white porridge in front of me, along with smashed cucumber, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and stir-fried pork with green peppers. It looked very appealing.

"You eat too." Wu Tongxue handed over a pair of chopsticks and buried her head in her porridge with a spoon.

It's so nice to wake up to food.

Wait, he seems to have forgotten something!

Wu Tongxue glanced at her nominal husband sitting opposite her, and her porridge eating speed slowed down considerably, as if she were counting the grains of rice.

Having eaten something in my stomach made me less hungry, and with something on my mind, I ate more slowly.

If I remember correctly, Huo Tongzhou will be back soon.

Ok……

Wu Tongxue sat up straight, almost forgetting that Bai Jingfan was supposed to deliver medicine today.

So hurry up and eat, then slip out the door!

Wu Tongxue's eating speed immediately returned to normal, and even increased.

Please, please don't come now!!
