Marrying a childless superior, she became pregnant and lived a carefree life in the 1970s.

Chapter 233 Sheng Zexi: Wife, you have to be more loving towards me!
Although I know that Gu Jianing only remembered him out of concern for his patients, as a doctor.

But it still made Li Tingxuan happy.

"Yes, thank you, Dr. Gu. I will pass on the message."

"That's good." Gu Jianing had nothing else to say and turned to leave.

"Dr. Gu..." Just as they were about to pass each other, Li Tingxuan called out to her.

Li Tingxuan gazed at her eyes and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Dr. Gu, I'm sorry, Li Shuyao attacked you before..."

Later, when the truth about the fake Li Shuyao was uncovered, Li Tingxuan learned that Li Shuyao had attacked Gu Jianing several times because she was jealous that Sheng Zexi had married Gu Jianing.

Gu Jianing was lucky; otherwise, she would have been harmed by Li Shuyao long ago.

That fake Li Shuyao is truly vicious.

At first, he thought that since the two of them had grown up together, there must be some brother-sister relationship between them.

But later I learned that if Li Shuyao really considered him a brother and had even a little bit of affection for him, then she wouldn't have revealed the secret about his mission.

It's important to understand that the mission failure resulted in PTSD, which was the least of his worries. If he hadn't been lucky, he might have died.

Therefore, Li Shuyao has no feelings for his brother, so why should he have any feelings for him?

Gu Jianing didn't expect Li Tingxuan to apologize to her because of Li Shuyao.

She shook her head and said, "That has nothing to do with you, you don't need to apologize."

The Li family themselves can also be considered victims.

That Li Shuyao is fake. Li Tingxuan's real sister is long dead.

Therefore, after learning that Li Shuyao was from R country, she stopped holding a grudge against Li Tingxuan.

“Ningning…”

At that moment, Gu Jianing heard a familiar shout.

Gu Jianing looked up and saw Sheng Zexi walking briskly towards her.

Gu Jianing quickly replied, "Comrade Li, my husband is here to pick me up, I'll be going now."

"it is good."

Li Tingxuan watched as Gu Jianing walked briskly toward Sheng Zexi.

Looking up, he met Sheng Zexi's gaze. The latter's gaze was indifferent, as if it could penetrate his heart in an instant.

For a fleeting moment, Li Tingxuan awkwardly looked away, feeling that Sheng Zexi had seen through his thoughts.

Over here, Sheng Zexi coldly stared at Li Tingxuan.

Li Tingxuan, with his looks and demeanor, isn't he just a high-end version of Wen Zhuqing?
That was Ningning's type before.

Ningning looked at Li Tingxuan...

Although Sheng Zexi was certain that Ningning's heart was currently with him, this Li Tingxuan was not simple-minded.

"Brother Xi, what are you looking at? Let's go home." At this moment, Gu Jianing's voice brought Sheng Zexi back to his senses.

Sheng Zexi took Gu Jianing's hand and led her towards home, then casually asked, "Were you talking to Li Tingxuan just now?"

"Hmm, you know Li Tingxuan?"

"Of course I know." That's Li Tingxuan, the pride of their Beijing compound, someone else's child.

In the past, when his father was disciplining him, he would compare him to Li Tingxuan.

He felt that Li Tingxuan was inferior to him in every way, and that Li Tingxuan was not as obedient.

Sheng Zexi scoffed at this, and in modern terms, he never accepted anyone's manipulation tactics.

Sheng Zexi was very confident; he thought he was doing just fine.

He only ever works harder, but he never compares himself to others.

but now……

At this moment, in front of Gu Jianing, Sheng Zexi showed a hint of comparison for the first time.

If he and Li Tingxuan had gone to propose to Ningning together, would Ningning have chosen him or Li Tingxuan?

For the first time, Sheng Zexi felt uncertain, and even a little inferior.

Love can really make people insecure.

"What's wrong with you?" Gu Jianing noticed his odd behavior and asked. "What did you just say to Li Tingxuan?" Sheng Zexi asked.

As soon as he said it, Sheng Zexi regretted it.

He knew he shouldn't have asked, especially given the tone, which sounded somewhat aggressive.

Gu Jianing didn't think much of it and frankly told Li Tingxuan what she had just said.

Sheng Zexi knew that they hadn't said anything, but...

Gu Jianing could still tell that something was wrong with him.

However, I haven't asked yet.

The two remained silent on the way back.

Sheng Zexi was very flustered.

Oh no, oh no, is Ningning angry with me?

Sheng Zexi, why are you so impatient?

So, after arriving home, Sheng Zexi greeted his grandmother and then pulled Gu Jianing back to their room.

The moment the door closed, Sheng Zexi hugged Gu Jianing tightly.

"sorry."

Gu Jianing was about to speak when she heard his muffled apology coming from her shoulder.

Gu Jianing's eyes flickered slightly. "Oh, why are you apologizing?"

"I shouldn't have asked you that way, I shouldn't have, I shouldn't have..."

The man stammered, but finally managed to squeeze out the word "jealousy."

Gu Jianing suddenly realized that he was jealous.

Thinking of Li Tingxuan's type and Wen Zhuqing's appearance, Gu Jianing immediately understood.

"Ningning, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been jealous."

"I just feel that Li Tingxuan has ill intentions."

"Why can't you just stay in the Beijing Military Region? Why do you have to be transferred to the Northwest Military Region?"

"He's deliberately talking to you; he's up to no good."

“Ningning, that kid is no good. Don’t be fooled by his gentle and refined appearance. Who knows what he’s really like?”

"Don't let him fool you."

Gu Jianing was both amused and exasperated by his words.

"I was the one who initiated the conversation with him; he probably didn't mean it that way."

Gu Jianing explained that she felt Li Tingxuan's gaze towards her didn't reveal any outward emotion.

So it shouldn't be as Brother Xi said.

You're overthinking it.

Sheng Zexi: I didn't overthink it; it's just a man's instinct when facing a rival in love.

However, since Gu Jianing had said that, he didn't say anything more.

She was clinging to Gu Jianing, looking aggrieved, like a big dog who had suffered a great injustice outside and was now back home, seeking affection from its owner to tell her its grievances.

If other people in the military region saw Sheng Zexi like this, they would definitely be shocked.

Deputy Regiment Commander Sheng, are you still the Jade-Faced Yama you are outside, acting like this?

Sheng Zexi: What Jade-Faced Yama? I just want to hug my wife, I just want my wife to cherish me more, and not let her be seduced by those glamorous and cheap women outside.

Sheng Zexi's appearance truly left Gu Jianing both amused and exasperated.

In fact, Gu Jianing wasn't angry at all.

The reason she remained silent in the second half was because she felt it wasn't appropriate to be outside, and she wanted to rush home to talk to him again.

Unexpectedly, before she could even speak, this guy had already said so much and even apologized.

Gu Jianing: Since you've apologized, then I'll accept it?
