"Isn’t this a bit difficult?"
Ye Hao couldn’t help but say as he sat down beside Gu Yi.
"Mmm, it’s not just a bit; it’s really hard. You know, I only went to middle school, and I never studied English before, so I don’t really understand it. To learn this, I even went to a bookstore and bought an English dictionary."
Gu Yi handed the dictionary she bought to Ye Hao.
"If you don’t mind, I can teach you."
"Right, you went to high school. Mom said you were really good at it back then, so you must know all this."
Gu Yi felt like she had found a cheat code.
"Learning English starts with the phonetic alphabet. There are vowels and consonants, look..."
In the following two days, Ye Hao played the roles of Gu Yi’s teacher, nanny, and massage therapist.
Gu Yi felt so lucky to have Ye Hao; she could understand the points he explained in just one go.
Ye Hao also took care of all the household chores, so she only had to focus on studying. If she got tired, there was massage and leg-pounding service.
Over these two days, Gu Yi admired Ye Hao more and more, especially when he was explaining topics. Gu Yi thought he was really handso when he spoke. Not only was he good at teaching English, but even the math problems she didn’t understand beca simple after his analysis.
Even the poetry questions, there was nothing he couldn’t handle.
Gu Yi thought if Ye Hao weren’t in the military, he would be an excellent teacher if he beca one.
Ye Hao also thoroughly enjoyed Gu Yi’s admiration. Usually, he felt like Gu Yi could do everything and was often the one to give him brand-new insights.
But through this experience, he realized Gu Yi wasn’t all-knowing; there were things she didn’t know. He enjoyed the feeling of being admired by the person he loved.
Happy and fulfilling tis always fly by quickly.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Hao was about to return to the army.
"I’ve already submitted the application to join the army, and the approval should co soon. Then we’ll be assigned housing, but there’s sothing I want to ask you."
"What is it?"
"I heard that to make it easier for soldiers’ children to go to school, the army is planning to build a new community in the suburbs, but it won’t be ready until next year. Do you think we should take the house in the army or wait for the house in the suburbs?"
Gu Yi actually knew about this. In her previous life, she chose the suburban house.
But in this life, she had already bought a house here, so there was no need to wait for the suburban house. Having a ho in the army base would make it convenient to take care of Ye Hao closely, so they wouldn’t have to be apart.
"We’ve already bought a house here, so let’s take the army’s house. You’re busy with the army and have few vacations; it’s also convenient for to stay there."
"Okay, then when the report cos through, I’ll ask for the house in the army."
Actually, Ye Hao was the happiest with Gu Yi’s decision. His initial thought was also to choose the army’s house, but he feared Gu Yi wouldn’t want it since the army base is a bit remote.
Gu Yi saw Ye Hao staring at her with a silly smile.
"What’s up? Why are you smiling so foolishly?"
"Yiyi, thank you."
"You silly."
Gu Yi actually understood Ye Hao’s concerns. In her past life, he also wanted her to choose the army’s house, but she refused because of the inconvenient living conditions and the potential issues with the children’s schooling.
She knew he felt quite disappointed at the ti, but she stuck to what she wanted.
"I have sothing to tell you too."
"What is it?"
Ye Hao propped his head up with his hand and looked at Gu Yi.
"When I was buying the house and moving, Li Yitian helped a lot. I wanted to treat him to a al, but I thought, after you graduate, we could treat him together. When you next take leave, invite Li Camp Commander to our place for a al. Does that work?"
"Of course, it does. I really should thank Li Yitian. Otherwise, it would have been too tiring for you to handle everything alone. Yiyi, I’m sorry."
Upon saying this, Ye Hao felt a little guilty towards Gu Yi.
She ca to this unfamiliar place, leaving her hotown for him, and he let her handle buying and moving houses by herself without any help.
"Don’t think too much, okay? I don’t think it’s a big deal. You weren’t here, and I liked it, so I bought it without having to consult you. It’s quite nice, actually."
"Yiyi, in the future, when I’m by your side, you won’t have to consult on what you like or want to buy. Your opinion is my opinion."
Ye Hao understood Gu Yi was comforting him. With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?
He hugged Gu Yi tightly and kissed her forehead.
Early the next morning, Ye Hao went back to the army.
When Gu Yi woke up, she instinctively called for Ye Hao, then realized what she was doing.
"Ah, habits are scary things. It’s also Ye Hao’s fault for being so charming. Now, with just here, I’m feeling a bit not used to it."
Gu Yi muttered to herself, suddenly feeling a bit embarrassed and laughed at what she just said.
After these past two days together, Gu Yi felt her heart grew closer to Ye Hao, and she saw the academic side of him.
Won do like to admire their partners, after all. Gu Yi had only heard about Ye Hao’s prowess from others before, mostly from the army, and it was hard to see in daily life.
These last two days, she really experienced looking up to Ye Hao. His intelligence, humor, tolerance, and thoughtfulness made him seem like soone who could do anything.
As she thought about this, Gu Yi felt like everything around her was filled with little pink bubbles.
After breakfast, Gu Yi went to the bookstore to buy so more practice papers.
With the exam approaching, she needed to familiarize herself with the knowledge points Ye Hao ntioned by doing practice questions.
After buying the practice papers back ho, she detoured to the market to buy groceries for a few days.
Every day, she was either doing exercises or morizing English, only going out once in a few days.
Her life reverted to how it was at the beginning of her exam preparations.
Ye Hao had just returned to the army and was adapting to his new position, working from morning to night. Only when going to bed at night did he have ti to think about what Gu Yi had been doing all day. Was she staying ho all day, reading, and eating whatever?
The next day, Ye Hao called Li Yitian.
Gu Yi was reading when she heard soone knocking on the door.
She walked to the door and heard Li Yitian shouting outside.
"Gu Yi, it’s , Li Yitian. Open the door."
Only after Gu Yi opened the door did a figure co in, pushing past her, shouting.
"Step aside, it’s hot, hot."
Gu Yi then noticed that Li Yitian was carrying a clay pot.
"What are you doing? Why did you bring a clay pot?"
"Get a bowl, it’s chicken soup. I just cooked it and brought it over. It was burning ."
Li Yitian was pinching his earlobe, clearly scalded.
"Why did you bring chicken soup here?"
Gu Yi asked while getting a bowl.
"Brother Ye Hao called , saying you’re preparing for exams and just eating whatever, and he worried about your health. So he asked to do it. Who would have thought, Brother Ye Hao, who’s usually so cold, is actually quite attentive to you."
Li Yitian smiled mischievously.
