Chapter 1239: Mother-in-law Visiting Her Son-in-law
Nangong Shu reached out, retrieved Chi Yang’s phone, and whispered to Nuannuan, telling her not to rush and to enjoy her food before coming back. Then, he asked Nuannuan to pa.s.s the phone to Nangong Ze.
The moment Nangong Ze received the phone, Nangong Shu roared at him and asked if he had bought the condiments that his second uncle mentioned.
Only then did Nangong Ze remember that the reason he got off work early was that he had a mission to complete. The task that his second uncle a.s.signed him had completely slipped his mind.
He had no choice but to quickly send Nuannuan back. Then, he drove off to buy the condiments that Second Uncle listed out for him.
When Nuannuan was about to reach the gates to Eagle, she called Chi Yang and asked him to come out.
Therefore, when Nuannuan reached the entrance, Nuannuan waited there.
Sensing two gazes from afar, she glanced over and saw Hong Feixu and her mother.
Hong Feixu was someone who long coveted Big Brother Chi Yang. Coupled with her photographic memory, Nuannuan recognized the woman immediately.
Looking at their resemblance, it was easy to guess the ident.i.ty of the woman standing next to Hong Feixu—Mrs. Hong.
Realizing that it was Mrs. Hong who was sizing her and Nangong Ze up just now, along with the mocking smile Mrs. Hong was giving her, Nuannuan could roughly guess what Mrs. Hong was thinking.
Therefore, she returned Mrs. Hong’s smile in a very conspicuous manner.
Mrs. Hong nearly rushed forward and gave her a tight slap.
She was nothing but a country b.u.mpkin. What was there to be arrogant about? How dare this b.u.mpkin provoke her and smile at her like that?!
“She probably thinks I’m just a poor soldier, and you’re just family to a poor soldier.”
Hong Feixu could not be blamed for thinking of Nangong Nuannuan this way. After all, most soldiers did not differ much in terms of their financial status.
“Hmph, when Chi Yang comes out, she’ll just get facesmacked.”
Nangong Nuannuan stood there the whole time. She expected Hong Feixu and her mother to approach her and mess with her, but the two of them remained far away as they scrutinized her.
It was not until Chi Yang’s car rolled out of Eagle, and all the guards bowed to Chi Yang’s car, that the mother and daughter rushed over.
Since Nangong Shu drove here himself, Nuannuan’s eldest uncle was not in Chi Yang’s car. Chi Yang was the only one in the car.
After seeing Nuannuan, Chi Yang stopped the car and got out of the car. Even though they had been hanging out with each other every day, Chi Yang would still feel like he had not seen his wife in a long time no matter how briefly they were parted.
Furthermore, every time he closed in on the distance between them, he would be swarmed by the epiphany that his wife had become prettier, setting new standards for beauty each time.
Hence, whenever he saw his wife, Commander Chi’s stern and cold facial features would soften.
“Chi Yang.”
Chi Yang, who was about to walk up to Nuannuan, found his path blocked by a middle-aged lady.
Looking at the smiling woman, as well as Hong Feixu, who pretended to be cool even though she was fidgeting shyly, Chi Yang could not help but frown.
“What’s up?”
Due to what happened last time, Chi Yang surmised that Hong Feixu was one of those female soldiers who went overboard. Therefore, even when he saw Hong Feixu’s mother this time, he did not bother looking friendly.
Facing such an intimidating young officer, Mrs. Hong was so nervous that she could barely speak. She opened her mouth twice, but nothing came out.
Seeing this, Chi Yang swerved around and was prepared to leave.
“Mom.”
