Chapter 774: It Was My Father and Your Grandfather Who Tricked Me Into Coming Here
Leng Mu’s phone was connected very quickly, and he said, “h.e.l.lo, Zhiyuan, you called right at the perfect moment. I also wanted to give you a call. I have some matters to take care of in Hong Kong. Both your older brother and I have already returned to Hong Kong. We wish you a happy marriage.”
“Dad, Zhou Yao has already gone over to the military base. I also want to start working.”
Leng Mu froze and broke out into loud laughter. “Haha! Sure, since both you and Major General Zhou do not plan to go on honeymoon, you can go back to work then. There is a mission on this side. I will ask the car to get you later.”
“Okay.”…
After half an hour, Leng Mu’s car arrived very quickly. Leng Zhiyuan jumped into the car nimbly, and the car cruised off into the distance.
She had long made plans. Both she and Zhou Yao were people who needed to go out on missions anytime, and after marriage, they could be together at certain times. The best was not to be together and spend the three months peacefully. She would then disappear and regain her freedom once again.
…
After more than one hour, the car stopped. The subordinate opened the backdoor and politely said, “Young Miss, we are here.”
Leng Zhiyuan stepped out. She stood up straight, had a look around, and the moment she looked, her face froze. Where was she right now?
A military base?
“Did you get it wrong, my father…” Leng Zhiyuan turned her head back and wanted to speak, but the car that had sent her over had already disappeared entirely.
Leng Zhiyuan’s heart sank, and she suddenly understood what her father was trying to do. Her father was sending her over to Zhou Yao’s door!
Leng Zhiyuan…
At that moment, the main doors of the military base opened up. Director Yang brought two young soldiers out. Director Yang had a bright smile on his face as he said, “Good Daughter-in-law, Brother Zhou gave me a call just now. He said that you would come over to my place and asked me to take good care of you. I came out to have a look, and you are really here now.”
Leng Zhiyuan:…
“Good Daughter-in-law, your husband is the pillar in my military. It is definitely not possible for his Flaming Forces soldiers to not have him, so I cannot give him a lot of marriage leave, but good daughter-in-law, you don’t have to worry. I know that a newly married couple would not bear to part from one another, so I have already ordered people to prepare a large house for the both of you, and it is near the training ground. I guarantee that he will not leave your sight for a single moment.”
Leng Zhiyuan:…
Director Yang gave an indication to the young soldier and said, “What are you frozen there for? Bring your older sister-in-law over to the housing unit quickly.”
…
Leng Zhiyuan was brought to a single storey terrace house. She pushed the door open, and there was a bedroom, a living room, one kitchen, and a toilet. The sun was s.h.i.+ning into the house brightly. It was clean and neat, and the moment she looked in, it was obvious that this house was prepared for a couple.
“Older Sister-in-law, Major General is on a mission in the base. He might return at night. Everything is available inside. If you need something else, just tell us directly.” The young soldier had not seen such a beautiful woman before in his life, and she was their Major General Zhou’s newly wedded wife, so the young soldier was red in the face as he was embarra.s.sed to look at her.
Leng Zhiyuan did not have a good expression on her face, and she did not say anything.
“Older Sister-in-law, these are the freshly plucked vegetables and fruits for today, and we have some meat also. You can also use them to make dinner. If Sister-in-law does not have anything else, I will go.”
Leng Zhiyuan turned her gaze back to look at the vegetable basket. There were many fresh vegetables, fruits, and meat inside just like what he said, but did she hear it wrong? She was going to need to cook dinner?
What nonsense was that?
She was already so old and had never cooked anything, and she had not washed her own clothes before.
She was not like Zhou Yao, a special forces soldier. He had to go anywhere he was a.s.signed on a mission. She was the precious daughter of the Leng family. Leng Mu would never bear for her to go on missions that had tough conditions. Every time she went out on a mission, there would be enough aid on her side, and other than completing missions, she was just a Young Miss brought up in comfort.
The young soldier saw her not saying anything and scratched his head before he went out. Leng Zhiyuan slumped down onto the sofa, and it was only at that moment that she was clear that she’d been sold by her own biological father.
Because she was bored, she picked a red apple from the vegetable basket to have a bit. Her long slim legs were on the back of the chair. She nested her head against it as she lay down. She did not need to think about those troubles. When she thought about them, she would only be more irritated, so she gave up and closed her eyes to sleep.
She slept till the night, and she opened her eyes lazily. There was no one in the room. Zhou Yao had not come back yet. She touched her stomach that had gone flat. What was she going to do when she was hungry?
She stood up and walked two rounds around the house. She definitely could not call for delivery at the military base. Would she actually have to cook her own dinner?
Leng Zhiyuan gave in. Her stomach was already rumbling in hunger. She stretched her hand out to pick some green vegetables and some noodles from the vegetable basket. She would make some noodles to eat then.
She walked into the kitchen, and the stove and gas were easy to use. She washed the green vegetables simply before she filled the pot with water. She hesitated after that. Did she have to put the vegetables in first or the noodles?
She decided just to mix them all up.
She placed the vegetables that were not cut and noodles all into the cold water before she switched the fire on to high heat.
She opened the window up and stretched her head out to take a whiff of the air outside. The air was very fresh, and it had the smell of green olives, just like the scent on that b.a.s.t.a.r.d’s body.
Why was she thinking about him again?
Leng Zhiyuan shook her head. She shook that handsome and brazen face inside her mind away. It was probably because he was too irritating, and he was the person that she hated the most in her life, so she would think about him often.
It must be like this.
Leng Zhiyuan affirmed her thoughts inside her heart, and at this moment, she heard a sound. She turned her head back to have a look. The soup in the pot had spilled out, and it overflowed all over the place.
Oh no.
Leng Zhiyuan stepped forward quickly and stretched her hand out to remove the lid.
But her fingers were scalded. She shrunk her hand back and was not careful as she overturned the entire pot. Bam! The entire pot fell down from the stove.
“Ah!” Leng Zhiyuan was shocked as she took a step back. She was at a loss as she looked at the mess.
Click. The main door was suddenly pushed open.
A breeze of cool autumn wind blew inside, and a tall, handsome figure appeared at the door. “What’s wrong?”
Leng Zhiyuan raised her gaze up to have a look. Zhou Yao was back.He was dressed in a camouflage military uniform. His shoulders were broad and had a slim waist. His perfect figure had extremely amazing proportions. His body still had that cold wind, and it made all of his features look steely and bold.
This was the first time that Leng Zhiyuan saw him dressed in his military uniform, and she could not help but be shocked. At this moment, he scanned her face before looking over at the floor.
She was extremely embarra.s.sed. Why did he always have to see her at her most embarra.s.sing moments?
Suddenly, someone outside asked him, “Major General, do you need the kitchen to prepare supper?”.
Leng Zhiyuan was alarmed. She’d made a mess of the kitchen, and at this moment, she definitely did not want anyone to come inside. She had a huge ego.
She looked at Zhou Yao pitifully.
Zhou Yao looked at her before he turned around to face the people outside the door and said, “Go. Your older sister-in-law is here today. Do I still need the kitchen to prepare supper for myself?”
He shut the door with a loud bang!
…
Zhou Yao walked inside. His tall figure stopped by the side of the coffee table in the living room. He stretched his hand out to undo the black belt on his waist before he threw it on the sofa.
Leng Zhiyuan felt that this atmosphere was a little awkward. Although she was a little thankful towards him inside her heart, she coughed before she said, “It was my father and your grandfather who tricked me into coming over…”
“Just now, I heard some sounds coming from inside and still thought that someone preying on Mrs. Zhou’s beauty came inside to rob your beauty, and after I found out, it turned out that there is a small, hungry wildcat looking for food.” He turned his gaze over to the side and slowly looked over at her.
