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

Chapter 138 What to do if you die in the car halfway?
After recognizing the unidentified creature in the car as Qiao Wenjing, Jiang Moli recovered from her shock and waved to Lu Cheng across the street.

"come here."

Lu Cheng walked around the front of the car and stood in front of her.

Jiang Moli kicked him in the shin and pointed at Qiao Wenjing in the car, yelling, "You dare to give a ride to someone who gets carsick? What if you die in the car halfway there? Are you going to bury you?"

Qiao Wenjing's face turned black with anger. "Jiang Moli, how dare you speak like that? Even if you are a leader's family member, cursing soldiers is still punishable!"

Jiang Moli pointed at her, "Stop your babbling and trying to scare people! If you're so tough, come down and talk to me! You're hiding in the car like a turtle. If you're so tough, then don't ever get out of the car!"

Qiao Wenjing was so angry her nose almost twisted. She got out of the car and walked up to Jiang Moli. "Who's the coward? You dare to lay a hand on me?"

If Jiang Moli dares to lay a hand on her, that would be obstructing official business and would be punished!

Jiang Moli suddenly raised her left hand.

Qiao Wenjing instinctively turned her head away in fright.

Jiang Moli took the opportunity to climb into the passenger seat and close the car door.

When Qiao Wenjing came to her senses, she glared at Jiang Moli in the passenger seat.

"Dr. Qiao, there's also a passenger seat on the back of the Jiefang truck. Or you can sit on the roof. It's well-ventilated from every angle, so you won't get carsick."

Qiao Wenjing looked at Lu Cheng for help, hoping he would assist her.

Lu Cheng went straight back to the driver's seat, ready to drive.

Seeing this, she quickly opened the back door and got into the car.

……

On the way, Qiao Wenjing deliberately talked to Lu Cheng about missions and military matters, as if intentionally isolating Jiang Moli.

However, she was mostly talking to herself, and Lu Cheng only occasionally responded with a syllable or two.

Jiang Moli sat quietly in her seat, without making a sound to interrupt.

She spent the whole day picking mushrooms yesterday and did two more sessions last night. Now her back and legs are sore and she just wants to get some sleep.

Qiao Wenjing is willing to chat with him for free, which saves her trouble, as she doesn't have to worry about the man getting sleepy while driving at night.

……

By the time Jiang Moli woke up, it was already daylight.

The half-round, golden-red sun, like a shy maiden half-hidden among the clouds, is hazy and beautiful, like an oil painting.

Seeing her sleepy eyes, looking cute and adorable, Lu Cheng couldn't help but whisper, "Drink some water to wake up, we're almost there."

"Well."

Noticing that Lu Cheng's voice was a little hoarse, Jiang Moli finished her water and handed him the water bottle.

"You should drink some too."

"it is good."

Lu Cheng took the water bottle with one hand, looked at the road, tilted his head back and took several big gulps before handing the water bottle back to her.

When Jiang Moli took the water bottle, she noticed Qiao Wenjing's fiery glare from the back seat and couldn't help but laugh.

"why are you laughing?"

"You look rather cheerful, like a joke."

Qiao Wenjing was furious: "Jiang Moli, I didn't do anything to you, can't you have some manners?"

"I'm sorry, I was in a rush to leave this morning and forgot about manners at home. Please bear with me."

As he spoke, he suddenly turned his head and looked Qiao Wenjing up and down with a leisurely air, "Hey, Dr. Qiao, how old are you?"

"Does it have anything to do with you?"

"Let's chat, we're just killing time anyway. You're 28, right?"

Qiao Wenjing almost vomited blood.

Is she that old?!
"I'm only 23!"

"23 isn't young anymore, do you have a boyfriend/girlfriend?"

Before Qiao Wenjing could answer, he replied, "I guess you don't have a boyfriend. At your age, you still don't have a boyfriend, so you must have saved a lot of money, right?"

"What's it to you!?"

"Your temper is like a musket barrel; you need to change it, or you'll have a hard time getting married."

Qiao Wenjing was almost driven mad with anger. "Jiang Moli, can you shut up? I don't want to talk to you."

Jiang Moli blinked: "I saw you chattering away the whole way, pulling my husband Lu around and talking nonstop. I thought you liked to talk and wanted to chat with you."

"I was only talking to Lu Ying about official business, so stop making trouble out of nothing!"

"You're absolutely right. I'm not only uncivilized, but also unreasonable."

Seeing Qiao Wenjing turn her head away, looking annoyed and unwilling to talk to her, Jiang Moli secretly chuckled.

"You little brat, I'll make you mad." Besides being annoyed by Qiao Wenjing's clingy behavior towards her man, she also wanted to use Qiao Wenjing to help her garner more hatred and earn more dislike points.

Jiang Moli was unaware that Qiao Wenjing had long been in cahoots with Jiang Qing, helping her earn a lot of dislike points.

Qiao Wenjing was indeed furious.

In all her years, she had never met anyone more detestable than Jiang Moli.

She couldn't figure it out.

How could Lu Cheng possibly fall for a woman like Jiang Moli, who is so uncultured, lacks manners, and is unreasonable and domineering?

Little did Qiao Wenjing know that Lu Cheng's romantic feelings for his wife were thicker than a city wall!
She felt that Jiang Moli was sharp-tongued and mean-spirited, always stirring up trouble.

Lu Cheng, however, felt that Jiang Moli loved him and cared about him, which was why she was jealous of him talking to Qiao Wenjing.

He decided he would never speak to Qiao Wenjing again.

To avoid upsetting my wife.

……

Upon entering the city, they first went to the farmers' market.

In addition to the sale of agricultural and sideline products such as grains, oils, vegetables, meat, and eggs, the farmers' market also has a special area for trading mushrooms.

However, the car couldn't enter the market and had to be parked outside.

The military is considered a veteran seller in the market.

As soon as the Jiefang truck came to a stop, some vendors surrounded it.

Seeing the soldiers in a flurry of activity, Lu Cheng got out of the car to help. But worried that the two of them might fight, he decided to take Jiang Moli with him, leaving Qiao Wenjing alone in the car.

Jiang Moli sat on the curb, resting her chin on her hands as she watched Lu Cheng negotiate prices with the vendors.

Within two minutes, the two parties had agreed on a price.

The vendor happily bought two baskets of matsutake mushrooms and bamboo fungus.

It's truly unexpected that Lu Cheng, a soldier who spends most of his time in the military, is also adept at dealing with shrewd and cunning businessmen.

The more she learned about this man, the more she discovered that his inner brilliance far surpassed his physical appearance.

After selling two more baskets of mushrooms, Lu Cheng subconsciously glanced at Jiang Moli.

Seeing her sitting quietly and obediently by the roadside, like a little girl, I couldn't help but feel tenderness in my eyes.

A sweet aroma of rice wafted in from somewhere.

Hungry, Jiang Moli subconsciously looked around and saw a state-run restaurant not far ahead, with a small window selling breakfast.

She got up and walked over.

The window sells pineapple rice and bamboo rice, and quite a few people are buying them, crowding around the window.

Jiang Moli squeezed in, "Big sister, how much is the pineapple rice?"

"Purchase with ticket, three taels per serving."

Jiang Moli: "This is my first time here, and I don't know if your food is good or not. Can I try some for free?"

"cannot!"

The woman selling food refused outright, clearly thinking Jiang Moli was just trying to freeload.

Jiang Moli laughed, "Big sister, do you recognize me?"

"do not know."

"Why should I listen to you if I don't know it? I just want to try it!"

The woman selling food glared at him, rolled up her sleeves, and said, "What, you trying to dine and dash?"

Other citizens buying food all cast angry and disdainful glances at Jiang Moli.

If someone refuses to let you try it, but you insist on doing so, isn't that just being a scoundrel?

"Disdain value +5, 50000 yuan credited."

Lu Cheng hurriedly squeezed into the crowd, shielding Jiang Moli behind him, "I'm sorry, ma'am, she just came from the countryside and doesn't know the rules."

Jiang Moli muttered in agreement with his words, "You city people are so stingy, you won't even let me have a taste. When I was in the countryside, I always ate at whichever house I happened to be in."

Everyone in the city felt offended.

Does not giving you free food mean you're stingy?

Who is this?
"Disdain value +7, 70000 yuan credited."

Lu Cheng immediately reached out and covered her mouth, "Be good, stop fooling around."

Watching Lu Cheng coax Jiang Moli like a daughter, the food vendor said, "Hey buddy, keep an eye on your daughter when you're out and about. She's so silly, don't let anyone kidnap her."
