Chapter 255 A Terrifying Tenderness

After Chief Wei immediately realized what was happening, his brain worked like crazy, and his tone became several times gentler.

"Shi Xia, did I forget to tell you? Our army canteen has been reformed, and we've hired several more chefs, all of them are excellent chefs!"

"Really?"

"How could it be fake? If you don't believe me, call Wen Cheng'an and ask him."

Chief Wei deliberately mentioned Wen Cheng'an, and Shi Xia replied, "Tell Wen Cheng'an that I will be going back in a few days and waiting for Captain Luo to come and pick up the plane."

"Okay, come back soon."

The two finally hung up the phone, and Shi Xia then called Captain Luo.

Captain Luo was stunned when he received the call.

Shi Xia actually managed to get him an airplane!

Complaining about being poor isn't pointless!

"Shi Xia, thank you so much!"

Captain Luo thanked them repeatedly. If it weren't for the fact that there were many things that couldn't be said on the phone, and that feudal superstitions were not allowed now, he would have pasted Shi Xia's portrait on their plane and lit incense every day before flying.

"It's okay," he thought to himself silently.

Shi Xia: Thank you so much.

"You wait, I'll go myself!"

Shi Xia hung up the phone and continued to wait for Captain Luo.

She came around from this side to avoid being seen.

At the same time, Chief Wei, who had just hung up the phone, was frantically scratching his head.

"Why did I say several chefs? One would have been enough. Where am I supposed to find several chefs these days?"

"Do you know how hard it is for me? To keep Shi Xia... no, I have Wen Cheng'an."

Chief Wei suddenly laughed and called over his bodyguard.

"Summon Wen Cheng'an here!"

"Yes."

Twenty minutes later, as soon as Wen Chengan finished his report, the door opened.

Wen Chengan didn't dare go in, because Chief Wei opened the door himself and had a worthless smile on his face.

"Cheng'an, are you tired?"

Wen Cheng'an shuddered, goosebumps crawling all over his body. For the first time, he felt that being cared for was also a form of intimidation.

"Greetings, Commander! I'm not tired!"

The resounding answer made Chief Wei's smile widen even more.

"Alright, come in quickly. Would you like some tea? Or some snacks?"

Wen Cheng'an couldn't step inside with the one foot he had raised.

This treatment belongs to his wife; he couldn't possibly get such a big benefit from it.
"Sir, please just give me a quick death! What did I do wrong? Or you can kick me a couple of times to vent your anger?"

"What are you saying! Do you think I'm that kind of short-tempered person?"

Wen Cheng'an gave a forced smile, finding it difficult to answer.

"That's all in the past, now is the present."

"Wen Cheng'an, have you been having any difficulties lately? If you have, be sure to tell the organization, and I will definitely help you solve them."

"I have no difficulties."

Wen Cheng'an entered by hugging the wall, looking extremely cautious, and seriously doubting whether he was possessed by something.

Oh no, my wife isn't home either, and he's not good at exorcising ghosts.

Wait, can a wife exorcise ghosts?
Wen Cheng'an's thought process had gone completely astray, and Chief Wei, oblivious to this, continued to show concern.

After showing concern for more than ten minutes, Chief Wei finally spoke up: "Wen Cheng'an, do you want to give Shi Xia a call or something? Newlyweds always miss each other when they're apart, right?"

Upon hearing the word "summer," Wen Cheng'an's mind finally returned to normal.

"Sir, do you want an airplane?"

"Nonsense, only a fool wouldn't want it!"

Wen Chengan breathed a sigh of relief; at least he didn't need to exorcise the ghost anymore.

"Let's just say it directly next time. You've scared me half to death with all this beating around the bush."

"What's the point of just saying that? You all went with me, and I didn't see any of you bring back a ship." Chief Wei said, sounding very aggrieved.

Wen Chengan wanted to laugh but had to hold it in.

"Report, we'll try again next time."

"Sir, my wife will miss us."

Chief Wei shook his head and looked at Wen Cheng'an disapprovingly, saying, "You don't understand, there are plenty of devils out there."

Wen Chengan: ?

"Alright, go train!"

"Yes!"

Wen Chengan was kicked out again, and Chief Wei didn't stay long either, going to find the cook!
He refused to believe that such a large military camp couldn't find a few people with good cooking skills.

Three days later, Captain Luo traveled day and night to Shi Xia's unit and saw the plane Shi Xia had mentioned.

He couldn't close his mouth anymore; his gums were practically frozen solid, but he didn't care.

This plane is more attractive than a newlywed bride.

It was at this moment that Captain Luo realized Shi Xia's importance.

The key is that this girl is really capable when it comes to getting things done.

Captain Luo and Regiment Commander Cheng began to try various ways to curry favor with him.

Knowing that Shi Xia liked food, Captain Luo brought a chef and mutton with him. Every day, he would grill mutton skewers, cook mutton soup, and bake mutton buns for Shi Xia in the yard.

Upon seeing this, Cheng Tuan became even more enthusiastic.

Shi Xia ate very well and gained several pounds, finally making up for the weight she lost in the desert.

Ten days before the Lunar New Year, Shi Xia was finally leaving.

The two were still trying to persuade him to stay.

Shi Xia refused.

"I can't stay any longer. Wen Cheng'an is waiting for me to come back for the New Year."

In short, Captain Luo and Regiment Commander Cheng suddenly realized something: Wen Cheng'an!

If they can't get Shi Xia, they can get Wen Cheng'an!
After the two men made a roundabout phone call to Chief Wei, they were given a severe scolding by him.

After hanging up the phone, Chief Wei immediately called a meeting. The purpose of the meeting was to make Comrade Wen Chengan feel at home.

In the following days, Wen Chengan discovered that the people around him all had some problems.

When his comrades saw food, they acted like wolves seeing meat, but now they stopped fighting over it. When they went to the canteen, people would give up their seats for him, and the comrades serving food would smile at him.

Even when he went to take a shower, someone would leave hot water for him.

Oh no, has the world gone mad?
Just as Chief Wei was about to deliver the warmth to Shi Xia for the umpteenth time, Shi Xia returned.

Shi Xia returned with large bags and small packages, bringing back delicious food and useful items from all over the country, all for the New Year.

When Shi Xia returned, Chief Wei's "warmth-giving" activities went even more extravagant, with all sorts of New Year's goods being delivered, almost overflowing Shi Xia's house.

She had no choice but to send it back to Hai San Island, but when she arrived there, she received even more things.

When she returned to her family compound, there were even more packages than when she left, and Wen Chengan immediately knew what was going on.

"This food is enough for the two of us to eat until next year's Chinese New Year."

"A sweet burden, I'm so popular."

"My wife is amazing!"

Wen Cheng'an, without thinking, hugged Shi Xia and wrapped her up in his arms, swaying her back and forth, rubbing his mouth and nose against her neck.

"Stop touching it, or it might start a fire."

"If it catches fire, just put it out. I'm off today."

Shi Xia pushed Wen Cheng'an's face away, turned to him and said, "Did you forget we were going to the cafeteria for dumplings later?"

"Oh—I forgot."

Wen Cheng'an wouldn't let go, insisting on holding Shi Xia.

In the evening, the two went to the army canteen and ate dumplings, sweet soup, and glutinous rice balls with everyone. In short, they prepared all kinds of food for the New Year from all over the country, aiming to make it a complete meal.

After dinner, Wen Cheng'an officially took leave and left the military base overnight with Shi Xia. They boarded a boat and returned to Huihai Island to celebrate the New Year with Grandpa Shi.
