Chapter 462: Chapter 320 I Am Your Wife
As the first watch of the night arrived, followed by the second and before dawn, I penned this all at once in the small black room, dear readers. This is the result of Nuan being closed off for a whole day; I hope the stability remains, otherwise, Nuan would be heartbroken.

“Living life with a secret is very hard, and I want to live authentically…” Chuxia stared earnestly at Zhou Mikang, “Are you willing to help fulfill this wish?”
“Of course, I am willing.” Zhou Mikang wrapped his arms around her and sat down, holding her like a child, with a rare tenderness appearing in his eyes, “Chuxia, thank you for trusting .
I know you wouldn’t have revealed all this if you weren’t worried about my dying out there. I can imagine how much you struggled in your heart before you spoke.
In order for you to live happily and authentically in the future, I must make sure I stay alive and return. In this lifeti, you can only be the wife of Zhou Mikang. You also need to bear children for and grow old with , watching our grandchildren together. That’s settled then, neither of us is allowed to back out.”
Chuxia humd helplessly, “You, always so domineering. The beginning was quite moving, but the ending…” She shook her head, pouting and said no more.
“I’m a military man, and military n need to be decisive,” Zhou Mikang said with a smile brimming in his eyes, “Now, the person closest to you in this world is . It feels good, doesn’t it?”
“Not at all!” Chuxia imdiately retorted, “The closest people to are my parents. In my heart, you only have the potential to be on par with them; there’s no possibility of replacing them. As for when you can be on par, that depends on how you behave.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll make that day co sooner.”
“You have to treat my parents well in the future; just because I told you the truth doesn’t an you can neglect them. In this world, they are the ones who love unconditionally. Without them, I probably couldn’t have held on.”
“Silly girl…” Zhou Mikang tapped Chuxia’s forehead lightly, “What nonsense are you thinking? Why would I disregard them just because you’ve told these things? On the contrary, I will respect them even more. Being their daughter is your fortune, as well as mine.”
“Yes, if I had t typical parents of this era, I probably couldn’t have endured it…” Chuxia then detailed to Zhou Mikang how parents and children interacted in the future.
When she finished speaking, Zhou Mikang’s face filled with dread, and he hugged her even tighter, involuntarily pressing his cheek to hers: “You are so brave, Chuxia, truly brave!”
“You are so strange…” Chuxia couldn’t help laughing, “You were born in this era, why do you like soone with my personality? Gentle and obedient would be so much better; you really don’t know how to enjoy good fortune.”
“What I want is a life partner who can listen to and converse with . Not a virtuous wife good only for cooking and cleaning, nor soone who only knows to agree.”
“You sure have many faults.” Chuxia gave him a reproachful look, “You’re really asking for a beating.” Then, her expression beca serious, “Zhou Mikang, though I co from the future, I only know so surface phenona about its developntal trajectory, I really can’t help you too much.
As for the war, I know it will break out at the beginning of next year. I’m not very clear about the details of the battles, but I do know a few famous ones, which I can share with you.”
Zhou Mikang’s expression also turned serious. “Alright, go ahead. Besides, even if you tell , I can’t take it completely for granted. After all, many things are inexplicable. Whether so things have changed since you ca to this era is still unknown.
What you tell , I will use as a basis, but a detailed analysis of the battles must rely on the actual situation, so don’t feel pressured. I promised you I would co back, and I will.”
Chuxia then organized her thoughts and recounted the famous battles and major events she could rember to Zhou Mikang. At the end, she giggled, “Do you now feel that choosing Elder Long was especially correct?”
“…” The description of future society left Zhou Mikang sowhat shocked, and he took a mont to gather himself.
Even with a robust heart, hearing such things all at once required ti to digest, which was why Chuxia had hesitated for a long ti before deciding to tell him.
She had read novels about rebirth and ti travel before, where the protagonists invariably chose to keep such matters secret. If it were not absolutely necessary, she, too, would have chosen to keep it secret.
After all, revealing such matters brings too many uncontrollable factors. If it wasn’t for Zhou Mikang’s character, for everything he had done for her, she wouldn’t have dared to speak out.
Of course, everyone makes misjudgnts at tis. If that were the case, she had no regrets. It was much better than him being hard on the battlefield and living a lifeti of guilt.
However, she had so confidence in her ability to judge people—although she wasn’t sure where that confidence ca from…
“Chuxia, your description fills with hope,” Zhou Mikang finally collected his thoughts and looked at her earnestly. “Whatever the reasons for your arrival, one thing is certain. Because of you, the nation can reduce inestimable losses, and many families need not be shattered. You are a hero.”
“Can you not talk to like that?” Chuxia shivered, “It makes feel like I’m being honored at a big eting.”
Zhou Mikang looked at her puzzled, “Don’t you like being honored?”
“I like being praised, but I don’t like praise that feels insincere. You know full well that when I told you all this, I hadn’t thought so much about it. In the future, or even now, I’m just an ordinary person. I just want my family to be safe and healthy. If possible, helping others within my ans is enough.
As for matters of national significance, don’t pin that on ; that hat is too heavy, it gives psychological pressure. If you keep talking like this, I’ll regret telling you everything.”
“Alright, alright, I won’t talk like that anymore,” Zhou Mikang said with a chuckle as he shook his head, “I was just speaking impulsively. Don’t worry, I won’t be like my dad, sacrificing my relatives for the country.”
“What if that kind of situation happens?” Chuxia looked at him seriously, “I an what if you had to choose between and national interests, what would you do?”
Zhou Mikang grew serious, “Lin Chuxia, you have to believe . Even if it costs my life, I won’t reveal your secrets, you can be sure of that.”
“Hehe…” Chuxia just chuckled awkwardly, “I don’t distrust you, I was just asking. This question is pretty much identical to who you would save first, or your mom, hehe…”
Zhou Mikang’s eyes narrowed, “Am I to take it then that you’ve fallen for a little, hence you’re asking such questions?”
“Don’t flatter yourself,” Chuxia snorted, “Certainly not.”
“Don’t be shy, whether you admit it or not, the fact is you really have fallen for . Otherwise, you wouldn’t be worried about my life and death, nor would you tell such important things.” Zhou Mikang smiled proudly, “Only soone as outstanding as deserves your love, you know?”
“Can you be even more narcissistic?” Chuxia stared into his eyes, “When I told you everything, did you not feel even a bit uncomfortable?”
“No.”
“Really not?”
“Of course.”
“What if I were an old lady in my eighties, would you be upset then?”
“That’s an impossible scenario; I don’t want to speculate on that.”
“What if I lied to you and I was actually born in 1909, not 1989?”
“Do you think you’re an old demoness? How old would that make you from 1909 to 2010? But, if that were true, I’d be even luckier. With nearly a hundred years of life experience, think how much you could help ?!”
Chuxia: “…” After a long mont, she cleared her throat, “If I really were a hundred-year-old demoness, I’d be the one suffering, not you. I just can’t imagine what it would be like to marry a man who could be my great-grandson, tsk tsk…”
“Haha…” Zhou Mikang laughed and pecked her on the lips, “Chuxia, I’m so happy you told about yourself, and I prefer you being seven years younger than than nine. Of course, this secret is just between the two of us.” He pecked her lips again and seeing Chuxia didn’t resist, he got a bit carried away…
Having been ntally prepared and having no aversion or discomfort towards Zhou Mikang, Chuxia reached up and wrapped her arms around his neck, actively pressing her soft lips to his, her warm, tender tongue gently licked his lips and quickly withdrew… His reaction to such teasing made his breathing imdiately heavier…
As she sat in his lap, her little hand wandering up and down his back, occasionally scratching lightly, he felt his whole body ignite, the last shred of reason telling him they couldn’t continue any further, or the consequences would be…
Feeling his body suddenly stiffen, Chuxia gently moved her lips to his ear, rubbing against his earlobe back and forth, whispering softly, “Brother, I am your wife.”
“Brother, I am your wife… Brother, I am your wife…” Like a spellbinding mantra, these words reverberated in his heart. He had never felt so good being called “brother”…
Even so, he didn’t let his desires run wild, “Chuxia, won’t you regret this?” His voice was restrained and husky, oozing with allure that made the already teased Chuxia heat up all at once, her body writhing within his embrace, rubbing against him, “So annoying!”
This coquettish complaint, like ripples on a spring water, relieved him of all burdens. She was his wife, he was her husband, he had promised her, he would co back, he would definitely co back. What was there left to taboo? (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote and support it at Qidian. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read at m.qidian.)
