Gu Xiaozhan was just about to put her down when he noticed she had run out barefoot.
He stood up, carried her to the lounge, put shoes on her, and only then let her go to the desk outside to eat the desserts.
After Mu Anhan went out, Shui Chaoyu hadn’t stopped laughing, "Brother Zhan, what trick did you use to make sister-in-law so obedient to you now?"
Gu Xiaozhan glared at him fiercely, "Does any of this have anything to do with work?"
"This is way more interesting than work!" Shui Chaoyu laughed with a brightness like a boy sun-kissed on the sea.
"Looks like you’re still too idle! The oil developnt in Weihai is now your responsibility! Make sure to have soone monitor closely, and don’t let the M country’s aircraft carrier co in for exploration." Gu Xiaozhan commanded.
Shui Chaoyu reined in his smile, swearing with the toughness of a soldier, "If old M dares to invade our waters, we’ll beat them until they look for their teeth on the ground and end up feeding the sharks."
"War is a last resort, the main thing is to develop our country’s economy and technology." Gu Xiaozhan exuded the fervor of a soldier, the foresight of a politician, and the acun of a businessman.
It’s not an exaggeration to call him a versatile talent.
This is also why people bow before him; for the country, developnt is the only hard truth. When the common people live prosperous, happy, and peaceful lives, who wouldn’t like him?
To his subordinates, his foresight is impressive, thinking three steps ahead when taking one, strategizing from afar. Who wouldn’t admire him?
"Brother Zhan, I need to borrow soone from you!" Shui Chaoyu stood up.
Gu Xiaozhan slightly frowned, "Who?"
"Mu Chaohuan!" Shui Chaoyu specifically requested him, "You know, the oil exploration in Weihai doesn’t have precise data yet, there’s only a basic outline. I heard that guy estimates oil field areas with incredible accuracy."
Gu Xiaozhan surely felt the animosity Mu Chaohuan held toward him. Making him work for him now was simply impossible!
"Handle it yourself!" Gu Xiaozhan waved his hand, signaling him to leave.
"Yes!" Shui Chaoyu saluted crisply and left with large strides.
After leaving the office, he saw Mu Anhan at the desk outside, drinking milk tea and eating desserts, "Sister-in-law, can I have so?"
Mu Anhan handed him a small cake, "Here you go!"
Shui Chaoyu took it and lowered his voice, "I want to ask you, is Brother Zhan handso or am I?"
Mu Anhan rolled her eyes, "Which man in this world is as handso as my husband?"
Actually, Shui Chaoyu was just testing her, but seeing her defending Gu Xiaozhan so ardently, he naturally felt happy for Brother Zhan.
"I, the army’s heartthrob, need so sweets to soothe my wounded soul." Shui Chaoyu walked away with the cake.
Mu Anhan didn’t know what they talked about; in her previous life, she wasn’t keen on politics or military matters, and she didn’t rember what happened specifically.
After seeing him leave, she took the desserts and went to Gu Xiaozhan’s office.
"Honey, do you want so dessert?"
She handed the sweets over to him.
When people are down, eating sothing sweet can boost dopamine and create a feeling of happiness.
Compared to the emotions when she woke from a nightmare, Mu Anhan was feeling much better.
Gu Xiaozhan shook his head, "I don’t like sweets."
Mu Anhan had so crumbs of dessert on her lips, which she gently licked off, "You really don’t want to try? It’s delicious!"
