Second watch.

“A mountain can change, but one’s nature is hard to alter. I do have the intention to change, but it’s not like I can beco a different person overnight, right? Or…” Chuxia playfully shrugged at Zhou Mikang, “Do you want to pretend?”
“Sure…” Zhou Mikang nodded, “If you can keep pretending, I wouldn’t mind.”
Facing a challenge, soone continued to playfully shirk, “Your demands are too high, Your Majesty, I can’t achieve that!”
“Alright, if you can’t, then neither can I…” Zhou Mikang said as he took off his shoes and got onto the bed, half leaning beside Chuxia, “It’s so chilly, sleeping alone is too lonely.”
Chuxia: “…” This isn’t fair, is he really trying to make her lose face in front of Luo Xiaoqiong? Helpless, she could only smile ingratiatingly, “Hubby, give so face.”
His body stiffened, and Zhou Mikang looked at Chuxia with a heated gaze, “Say it again.”
Since she needed help, Chuxia obediently repeated, “Hubby, give so face.”
He hugged his little wife who was eagerly looking at him, and pressed his passionate lips onto hers…
…
“What are you looking at…” Feeling uncomfortable being stared at by Luo Xiaoqiong, Chuxia glared at her, “It’s not like it’s the first ti you’ve seen , do you really need to stare at like that?”
“Hehe…” Luo Xiaoqiong nudged her lightly, “What’s up with your lips?”
“What do you think?” Already ntally prepared, Chuxia looked at her calmly, “Just say what’s on your mind, no need to hold it in. Let see if you guess correctly.”
Since Chuxia said that, Luo Xiaoqiong beca embarrassed and gave a sheepish smile, “I didn’t say anything…” Then she looked at Chuxia anxiously, “By the way, is the Division Commander angry with ?”
“Why would he be angry with you?”
“It’s just that…” Luo Xiaoqiong mumbled softly, “I took his place, you two finally got together, and now I monopolize you, he must not be happy.”
“He’s not happy, that much is certain…” Before Chuxia could reply, Zhao Qihui chid in, “Just think, after getting married, if it’s not this busy thing, then it’s another. Since brother-in-law cares so much about Xia, of course he wants to spend more ti with Chuxia.
But today, we monopolized Chuxia due to special circumstances, brother-in-law will surely understand. Also, I feel like a person like him, if he’s really unwilling, he would definitely say it directly and would not hold back.”
“Sister, you really understand him well…” Chuxia laughed as she looked at Zhao Qihui, “Just in ti, he asked to ask you sothing. Let bring it up now, how do you feel about Liu Lianbao?”
“Liu Lianbao?” Slightly stunned, Zhao Qihui imdiately understood who Chuxia was talking about, “You an Commander Liu? He’s quite nice and enthusiastic, but I don’t know much else.”
“Sister, stop pretending to be confused…” Chuxia shook her head helplessly, “I’ve already asked, don’t you know why I’m asking? Just tell directly, do you like Liu Lianbao, is there any possibility at all.
I’ll be straightforward, Commander Liu is truly interested in you, but he was interested in Hongying before. It’s just that after realizing Zhong Hongying’s true nature, he separated from her.”
“Is that the officer Zhong Hongying liked?” Zhao Qihui looked surprised, “It’s really hard to imagine. Do you know what Zhong Hongying’s mother said about him?
She said Liu Lianbao has a face full of pockmarks but still took a liking to Zhong Hongying. At first, Zhong Hongying agreed because she had just co to the military and was afraid it would affect her prospects.
Later, she found it unbearable and broke up with him, and he retaliated, which even got Zhong Hongying detained. Although we know Zhong Hongying’s mother sotis talks nonsense, the commune indeed received a notice to discipline Zhong Hongying, so we were sowhat skeptical.
Now seeing him in person, I can only say Zhong Hongying’s mother can really spin tales. His face doesn’t have a single pockmark. If soone like that liked Zhong Hongying, Zhong Hongying should be delighted by it.”
“Sister, after all that, you still haven’t answered my question…” Chuxia looked at Zhao Qihui with exasperation, “What I really want to hear now is your answer!”
“The answer, huh…” Zhao Qihui gave a wry smile, “How should I put it? Feelings aren’t like a faucet, you can’t just turn them on and off easily. To be honest, I originally had so fondness for Jiang Wenyuan, otherwise, I wouldn’t have asked him to help with my studies initially.
With Wenzhang, it was because he comforted during a difficult ti, and I just really wanted soone who understood to talk to, especially since Su Qin wasn’t around and I didn’t have any other close friends to confide in at the ti. He was my escape.
But later, his family’s attitude did hurt . However, upon learning that he didn’t pass the exam, I felt so sympathy for him too. I also felt that if it weren’t for , he might not have fallen ill and perford poorly, which is why we made an agreent.
I have to honor my word, so I won’t consider feelings for now. I’ve decided to focus on my studies first, and once he passes his exam, we’ll give it a trial period. If it works out, fine, if not, we’ll call it quits.”

Chuxia and Luo Xiaoqiong looked at her dumbfounded, she still didn’t ntion Liu Lianbao?!
Feeling uneasy being watched by the two of them, Zhao Qihui lightly coughed: “Alright, since you two are not outsiders, I’ll just co straight out with it. Of course, I’ve noticed Commander Liu’s feelings towards these past two days.
I have a natural fondness and respect for soldiers. If I hadn’t gone through so much, I would definitely have agreed, but now, I can’t do that.”
Luo Xiaoqiong was still confused, but Chuxia understood.
Zhao Qihui also has a good impression of Liu Lianbao.
However, due to her promise to Wenzhang, she can’t develop anything with Liu Lianbao.
“I understand…” Chuxia looked earnestly at Zhao Qihui, “I’ll let Zhou Mikang know what you an, and have him talk to Liu Lianbao. If Commander Liu is willing to wait, what will you say?”
Zhao Qihui nodded.
“Alright, then I get it.”
“Hey, hey, hey…” Luo Xiaoqiong anxiously poked at them, “What kinda secret language are you two speaking? Can you explain clearly?”
“Idiot!” Chuxia rolled her eyes, “We’ve already said it so plainly, what more do you need?”
“I really don’t get it…” Luo Xiaoqiong still looked confused, “From what I gather, it seems like Sister Qihui doesn’t mind Commander Liu, but because she promised Wenzhang, she can’t consider him. But now you say Commander Liu is willing to wait…”
She suddenly slapped her forehead, “I get it! Sister Qihui ans she’s giving this year to Wenzhang. Once Wenzhang passes, Sister Qihui can be with Commander Liu. If Commander Liu believes in Sister Qihui, he’ll wait a year.
However, it’s not absolutely certain that they’ll be together; there’s also the possibility of continuing to choose Wenzhang. So, this wait involves risks. Whether Commander Liu is willing to wait or not depends on his decision, right?”
“This is driving crazy…” Chuxia ruffled her hair ssily, “Xiaoqiong, I rember you being quite smart, so why is it so hard for you to get this now? Could it be…” she stared at her belly, “You’re pregnant?”
“Stop it!” Luo Xiaoqiong blushed furiously and pushed her, “I’m not even married yet, pregnant with what?”
“Then why are you so dense?”
“I just couldn’t wrap my head around it for a mont.”
“You used to catch on pretty quickly; even more so after you started working with Director Xu. Why are you so slow today?”
“Too much trust in you guys, so I got lazy with my brain.”
Chuxia teased with a laugh: “Maybe it’s because you’re going to be the bride tomorrow, and you’re too excited to think about anything else…”
Luo Xiaoqiong: “…” Isn’t it unfair to bully soone like that? Especially since she’s her sister-in-law, not soone who can speak without a filter like so people. Though, she herself isn’t much better…
“Alright, you two, stop ssing around. Actually, I understand Xiaoqiong’s thoughts. Initially, she probably figured it out, but didn’t want to believe it, thinking I was being sowhat selfish.
Staying silent didn’t seem right either, so she pretended to be confused and asked…” Zhao Qihui looked seriously at Luo Xiaoqiong, “Sister-in-law, as we spend more ti together, you’ll know I’m really not soone who plays gas.
Especially with family, I’m straightforward. What I say is definitely what’s on my mind, and even if you misunderstand my aning and say it, I absolutely won’t get mad.”
“Hehe…” Luo Xiaoqiong chuckled awkwardly, feeling embarrassed. Chuxia montarily fell silent. It turns out the densest one was herself, huh? But upon reflection, it makes sense. One is a cousin, the other a best friend, so her feelings towards them are about the sa, without fear of affecting the relationship. Naturally, there’s no need for cautious probing. As for sisters-in-law, it’s only natural to be more careful.
“Chuxia…” Luo Xiaoqiong shook Chuxia’s arm endearingly, “I promise I won’t be like this in the future. Just now, I really didn’t know how to position myself and got more and more confused.”
Chuxia rolled her eyes: “I now believe the saying that those who truly deceive you aren’t necessarily your enemies, but those who know you well are the most terrifying.”
“Chuxia…”
“Hmph!”
Zhao Qihui quickly diated: “This isn’t entirely Sister-in-law’s fault. The little sister-in-law is indeed a terrifying creature, and Sister-in-law had no choice… It seems I need to use my actions to prove to Sister-in-law that the little sister-in-law isn’t so scary in the future.”
“No, it’s not that…” Luo Xiaoqiong’s face turned even redder with embarrassnt, unsure of what to say. She found that having the cousin of her best friend as a sister-in-law was indeed sowhat overwhelming.
Chuxia shook her head with amusent, picking up the phone: “You two chat slowly, I’ll check with Doudou on how the preparations are going on that side.” (To be continued.
