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

Chapter 295 Good Days

Jiang Moli had orange soda for dinner, and her voice carried a sweet orange scent, but Lu Cheng still detected a faint smell of alcohol.

He leaned close to Jiang Moli's lips and sniffed. "You've been drinking."

Although it was a question, the tone was very confident.

Jiang Moli squinted one eye and gestured with her finger, "Hmm, I drank a little bit."

Lu Cheng's heart almost melted at her adorable appearance. He affectionately touched her forehead and asked, "You haven't had too much to drink, have you? Are you dizzy?"

"Don't worry, I'm not drunk."

She was quite sensible when eating out, unlike at home where she was so unrestrained. She didn't dare drink any more after getting slightly tipsy.

back home.

Ma Hongmei placed the braised food that Jiang Moli brought back on a plate on the table for Lu Cheng and his son to eat as a late-night snack.

Since his workplace had given him a rare day off, Lu Dezhao treated himself to a small glass of wine.

Lu Cheng, who was recovering from his injuries, couldn't drink alcohol, so he drank water instead of wine with Lu Dezhao.

Jiang Moli also sat at the dining table, slowly sipping her grapefruit honey tea.

Lu Cheng ate a piece of braised beef. The meat was firm and chewy, salty and sweet, and full of braised flavor.

The meat my wife buys is so delicious!
Lu Dezhao also thought it was good, so he called An Hui and Ma Hongmei over to eat together.

After trying it, An Hui and Ma Hongmei both nodded in agreement.

"It's really delicious, the braised flavor is just right."

Jiang Moli smiled at the family and said, "It's free, so it has to be delicious!"

Everyone stopped eating and looked at her.

"What, you didn't buy this braised food?"

Jiang Moli rested her chin on her hand and said, "It was bought by an old man from out of town who treated us."

"An old man from out of town? You know him?"

"do not know.

"If he doesn't know you, why would he treat you to food?"

Jiang Moli shrugged. "Who knows? Maybe he's just naturally generous and has nowhere to spend his money. Mom and Dad, you two enjoy your meal. I'm going to wash up."

Upon hearing that the braised meat was bought by another man, Lu Cheng immediately felt that the meat didn't taste as good.

No sooner had Jiang Moli left than he put down his chopsticks and followed her back to his room.

"How old is that gentleman?"

Sensing the jealousy in the man's tone, Jiang Moli chuckled inwardly: "Older than you, and not as handsome."

Lu Cheng was instantly appeased, and he couldn't suppress the AK smile on his face.

……

The next day, Jiang Moli and Lu Cheng got up early and drove Lu Dezhao's Jeep out the door.

Lu Cheng was injured on duty this time, and he submitted a vehicle use application to the military region in advance, so he was not afraid of being accused of misusing official vehicles.

After arriving at the government staff quarters and picking up Yang Liqiong, we headed to the airport.

Yang Liqiong was returning to the capital for the Spring Festival, and Jiang Moli specially saw her off.

After seeing Yang Liqiong off, the two found a breakfast stall and had breakfast. Afterwards, they visited an old comrade-in-arms of Lu Cheng.

Around lunchtime, the two went to Nantang Restaurant.

Jiang Moli, the "matchmaker," played a crucial role in enabling Wen Jingrui and Qian Ling to become a couple.

The two had been wanting to invite Jiang Moli to dinner, but unfortunately Lu Cheng was injured, and Jiang Moli rushed to Xicheng to take care of him, only recently returning to Rongcheng.

When the two arrived at Nantang Pavilion, Wen Jingrui and Qian Ling were already there.

Jiang Moli said with a grin, "We're not late, are we?"

Qian Ling quickly replied, "No, no, we're just too early."

Jiang Moli introduced Lu Cheng and Wen Jingrui.

The two shook hands and exchanged pleasantries.

As a fellow man, Wen Jingrui had to admit that Lu Cheng was not only outstanding in appearance, but also possessed an innate aura of authority that made him a true dragon among men. No wonder the proud Meng Wei had pursued him for twenty years.

……

With the Spring Festival approaching, the restaurant was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, creating a festive atmosphere. "It's been a long time since I've eaten at this restaurant. I wonder if they've introduced any new dishes."

Jiang Moli rested her chin on her hand, looking around at the shop's decor, and casually remarked.

Nantang Restaurant is a Cantonese restaurant, and it was also the place where Wen Jingrui and Meng Wei had their first blind date, where she brought Qian Ling to eat there.

Qian Ling happily introduced to her, "Their shop launched roast goose and salt-baked chicken last month, and their dim sum includes shrimp and golden cake."

The fact that they could name all the new dishes in the restaurant so well clearly meant they had eaten there before.

Qian Ling is a thrifty girl and it's unlikely she would suggest eating out on her own initiative; she was most likely brought along by Wen Jingrui.

This also shows that Wen Jingrui is a man who is willing to give and treat his partner well.

"Then one of each of these four dishes, plus a soup and a vegetable dish, that should be about right."

Wen Jingrui naturally had no objection, and called the waiter to place an order, adding two more braised pigeons.

Braised pigeon is Qian Ling's favorite dish.

Jiang Moli held her teacup, raised an eyebrow at Qian Ling, whose face was beaming with happiness, and asked, "I'm going to the restroom, are you coming?"

"Okay."

After the two got up and left, Wen Jingrui took the initiative to speak with Lu Cheng: "Battalion Commander Lu, I heard you were injured some time ago. Are you feeling better?"

Lu Cheng nodded. "Thank you for your concern. My injuries are healing well. I'm a year older than you, so if you don't mind, you can call me Third Brother Lu."

Wen Jingrui readily agreed: "Third Brother Lu, if you feel any discomfort in your wound, you can come to me anytime..."

As the two were chatting, a familiar voice called out "Third Brother" suddenly came from behind them.

Lu Cheng turned his head and was somewhat surprised to see Meng Wei.

Meng Wei glanced at Lu Cheng, then at Wen Jingrui, a flurry of thoughts flashing through her mind.

"Third Brother, what's going on here...?"

Lu Cheng nodded slightly, his gaze falling on He Ming beside Meng Wei. "Mr. He, we meet again."

"Hello, Mr. Lu, is this your friend? Hello, my surname is He."

As a businessman, building connections is an instinct ingrained in He Ming.

Seeing He Mingchao extend his hand to Wen Jingrui, Meng Wei's heart jumped into her throat.

Wen Jingrui sized up He Ming.

The moment he saw him, he recognized him as the man who had given Meng Wei flowers on the winter solstice.

A moment later, he reached out and shook hands with the other person. "Hello, I'm Wen Jingrui."

Seeing that Wen Jingrui did not reveal their past relationship, Meng Wei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, she also noticed that Wen Jingrui hadn't looked at her since she first came in, not even glancing at her out of the corner of his eye.

He probably still harbors resentment towards her, right?

People naturally strive for better opportunities, and water naturally flows downhill. What's wrong with her choosing something better?

……

In the bathroom, Jiang Moli noticed the sparkling pearl earrings on Qian Ling's earlobes.

"The earrings are pretty, are they new?"

Qian Ling touched the earring, a shy sweetness appearing on her round face. "It was a gift from Jingrui, he said it was a New Year's present."

Jiang Moli wasn't surprised at all. "He bought the scarf too, didn't he?"

A checkered cashmere scarf was draped over the back of the chair Qian Ling was sitting on; it looked brand new.

Qian Ling nodded, "When we first got together, he bought me this scarf again, but I never dared to wear it."

Jiang Moli asked curiously, "He buys you this and that, and takes you to restaurants all the time. Is his salary enough to live on?"

"After returning to the city, he participated in a scientific research project and received a monthly stipend. Sometimes he would go to other hospitals to make house calls and give lectures at schools, which also provided him with income."

Wow, is it really that lucrative to be a doctor?

Jiang Moli patted Qian Ling's shoulder with satisfaction, "You're living a good life now too."

Qian Ling felt embarrassed by what was said. "Jasmine, I should thank you more. If it weren't for your encouragement, I wouldn't have had the courage to actively pursue my own happiness."

Jiang Moli touched her soft cheeks. "The best way to thank me is to live a very happy life with your Dr. Wen, okay?"

Qian Ling nodded emphatically, "Okay!"
