Married to the army by mistake, abstinent boss becomes addicted to pampering his wife

Chapter 118 What a wonderful local specialty!

"Who laughed at you?"

Lu Cheng's voice was cold.

Of course, this coldness was not directed at Jiang Moli.

Before Jiang Moli could answer, Lu Tingting poked her head out of the window next door and said, "Jiang Moli, how dare you say I'm still breastfeeding? You're the one who went to Uncle San to complain about me!"

Lu Cheng turned his head. "Was it you who mocked your third aunt?"

Lu Tingting felt guilty under his glare. "I'm just stating the facts. You didn't even come to pick us up!"

After saying that, she quickly pulled her head back and closed the window, afraid that Lu Cheng would jump over and beat her up.

Although Lu Tingting confessed without being asked, Jiang Moli didn't really care about it.

She was just using the ridicule to cover up her true feelings of unhappiness because the man didn't come to pick her up at the station.

But this unpleasantness had completely disappeared after the man took care of her daily needs.

Lu Cheng looked at her, his low, husky voice carrying a soothing quality: "If I had known you were coming today, I would have personally come to pick you up."

Hearing him say that, Jiang Moli felt much better.

"Xiao Peng said he told you about it."

"When?"

"That's what he said when he called you last time."

Lu Cheng paused, suddenly remembering that his brother-in-law had said he would bring him local specialties.

What a wonderful local specialty!

Seeing him suddenly burst into laughter, Jiang Moli asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Lu Cheng silently credited his brother-in-law for this, and cleared his throat, saying, "Yes, Xiao Peng did mention it, but I didn't understand it properly. Comrade Jiang Moli, I'm sorry for making you suffer. Next time you come, I will definitely pick you up, as long as I don't have an urgent mission."

Jiang Moli remained noncommittal.

Her gaze traced the man's handsome features, and she thought regretfully: There probably won't be a next time.

Seeing that she was interested in the mountains, Lu Cheng walked over to her and stood beside her, gazing into the distance.

"I wasn't lying to you, was I? This place is surrounded by mountains and has beautiful scenery."

“It’s good.” Jiang Moli nodded.

The mountains here are not high, but they are vast and boundless.

As far as the eye can see, the mountains rise one after another, stretching endlessly.

The lush greenery blends seamlessly with the pristine blue sky, creating a scene so beautiful it resembles an oil painting.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a wonderland.

"Can we go to any of those mountains?"

"Yes, but you can't go in alone. The mountain paths are complex and rugged, and it's easy to get lost. There are many poisonous plants, insects, and wild animals in the forest. When we go into the mountains to carry out missions, we have to ask local villagers to be our guides. But even so, there are often casualties."

Jiang Moli turned her head and whispered to Lu Tingting's window, "Did you hear what your third uncle said? Don't run around in the mountains alone. If you encounter poisonous insects or wild animals, no one can save you!"

The room next door was quiet, as if it were just Jiang Moli talking to herself.

In fact, Lu Tingting was hiding behind the window, holding her breath and not daring to make the slightest sound, cursing inwardly:

Do you need to remind me? I'm not stupid!
In Lu Cheng's eyes, his wife was both beautiful and kind-hearted.

Despite her niece's repeated disrespect, her daughter-in-law remained magnanimous and concerned for her niece's safety.

Jiang Moli was also just in case, fearing that the young lady might one day act impulsively and run off to the mountains alone.

Lu Tingting came here because of something she said.

If something really happens, it will definitely affect Lu Cheng's relationship with his older brother and sister-in-law.

The time we spent together flew by.

Before we knew it, it was evening.

The sun was setting in the west, and dusk was approaching.

Lu Cheng glanced at his watch reluctantly and said to Jiang Moli in a low voice, "You take a rest and see if there's anything we need. I'll go back to the camp to report today's mission to the leaders and also tell them about your visit."

He paused, then asked softly, "Are you hungry? Is there any food in your bag? If so, eat something first, and I'll bring you the food as soon as I finish what I'm doing." "Okay."

"Then you rest for a while, I'm going back to camp."

"Ah."

Jiang Moli saw him off.

As she approached the door, Lu Cheng stopped, turned around to look at her, his deep eyes captivating.

"Jasmine, I'm so happy that you've come to visit."

This joy made him feel more satisfied and happy than all the honors and medals he had received throughout his military career.

Jiang Moli blinked. "What have you thought about what I told you before?"

Lu Cheng pursed his thin lips slightly and hummed softly, "I've made up my mind, but I have to go back to the camp now. We can talk properly when we have time."

Finished talking and left.

This time, he didn't even look back.

He's clearly angry.

Jiang Moli leaned out of the door and watched the man go downstairs before closing the door and returning to the inner room to lie on the bed.

The suite is quite large, probably over 40 square meters, with a bookshelf and wardrobe serving as partitions in the middle.

The outer room is a small living room, and the inner room is a bedroom.

The bedroom is connected to a long balcony of about 3 or 4 square meters, with railings made of round logs as thick as an adult's arm.

In fact, not only the balcony, but the entire building is made of wood, with the exterior walls and roof covered with thick bark.

Along the way, the houses and buildings here are basically all like this, which should be a local characteristic.

……

At the entrance of the camp.

Jiang Qing handed the clean, empty lunchbox to Zhang Jiaming, and then took the lunchbox containing the food from Zhang Jiaming's hand.

To save money and pay off the debt as soon as possible, Zhang Jiaming would give Jiang Qing a small portion of his food every day.

This way, Jiang Qing doesn't have to cook for herself, saving her three to five cents a day.

"Jiaming, are you aware that Lu Ying was harassed by a female hooligan while on duty today?"

Zhang Jiaming shook his head.

Today, Lu Cheng is on a mission with the First Company, while he is in the Third Company.

Because of the previous rumors, the army issued a new law that anyone who spread gossip would be punished, so the soldiers of the company did not dare to spread the matter in the camp.

After telling Zhang Jiaming the gossip she had heard in the family compound, Jiang Qing happily picked up her lunchbox and returned to her dormitory.

They hadn't gone far when they encountered Lu Cheng returning to camp.

"Luying."

Lu Cheng nodded, stopped, and said to her, "Go back and tidy up your dorm room. A new teacher will be moving in tomorrow."

"it is good."

After watching Lu Cheng walk away with a gossipy look on her face, Jiang Qing continued back to her dormitory.

……

In the office, Zhong Weiguo pointed at Lu Cheng's nose and yelled, "What can I say about you! Flirting with a female comrade in broad daylight, in front of everyone, what are you going to tell the public about our unit?"

“Commander Zhong, let me clarify, I wasn’t flirting with a female comrade, it was with my own wife. The former is improper conduct, the latter is just uncontrollable passion.”

Zhong Weiguo glared at him, "Stop talking nonsense. Before you came back, the town police station even sent someone to talk about this. I felt ashamed. The impact is extremely bad! Here's what we'll do: have your wife go to town tomorrow and make a self-criticism in front of the public."

Lu Cheng said, "A self-criticism is necessary, but it should be done by me."

Zhong Weiguo nodded, "Alright, you two are not cowards in the face of trouble. Then you two should write a self-criticism together."

"That won't work."

Zhong Weiguo slammed his hand on the table. "Say that again? How many times do you dare to disobey military orders?"
