"Brother, can you understand what he means?" Chuxia, who was puzzled, looked at Jing Zhe, "Is he interested or not interested? It’s not fair to fool people like this."

"You’re usually smart, why are you acting silly now?" Jing Zhe shook his head with amusement, "He’s already given you the answer, and you didn’t notice?"

"He gave me the answer?" After thinking for a while, Chuxia tentatively said, "Does brother mean he agreed? Agreed to give it a try with Sister Yuan Hui?"

"What more do you want him to say?" Jing Zhe’s face showed more helplessness, "Do you expect him to directly tell you, ’Sure, I think Yuan Hui is nice, let’s give it a try’? Do you think that’s possible?"

"True." Chuxia laughed sheepishly, "I’m just too involved and worried about them getting hurt, my brain’s a bit rusty and can’t think straight."

"Being too involved means you’re close to both of them, Chuxia, you’re a kid who values emotions greatly..." Jing Zhe paused, "This makes it easier to get hurt, but if it wasn’t for this reason, we probably wouldn’t be this close to you either. Ah, humans are indeed the most contradictory beings."

"Brother’s contradictory because he cares about me; otherwise, why bother with all this? So I feel I’m the happiest, with so many relatives caring for me." Chuxia smiled with a trace of regret, "It’s a shame I got married early and can’t be a bridesmaid for you and brother, sigh!"

Listening to the change in how Chuxia addresses them, Jing Zhe chuckled bitterly, "Indeed, you’re now closer to Lin Wenbin, ah, people who are together often do get closer."

"I did it to distinguish between you two. I originally promised to call you brother, but when I returned to the Lin Family of the Capital, I can’t call my brother the second brother, so I had no choice and changed how I address you.

Brother treats me like a real sister, and you treat me like a real sister too. With you guys around, I feel very secure. Also, Zhou Mikang definitely won’t dare bully me, I’ve got two brothers to protect me!"

"Your mouth..." Jing Zhe shook his head helplessly, "Whatever you say always makes people feel warm inside. Actually, there’s nothing to worry about with how you handle things."

"That’s right, I’m very emotionally intelligent," Chuxia raised her eyebrows proudly, "Don’t be fooled by my young age, I understand a lot, even more than many older people."

Jing Zhe praised her, "I admit it; despite your young age, you see things clearly and don’t get stuck, which is quite rare and lovable."

"Thank you for the praise, brother..." Chuxia smiled, eyes gleaming with happiness, "For someone as insightful as you to praise me like this means I must be quite good."

Jing Zhe: "..." Who praises themselves like that?

As soon as Zhou Mikang entered the house, he glanced around, noticing his little wife beaming in a corner of the living room, and his brows furrowed in dissatisfaction when he saw who was sitting across from her.

"What are you talking about, smiling so happily?"

This sentence was tinged with jealousy. Chuxia quickly smiled at him, "Brother is praising me for being insightful."

"That’s right, Zhou Mikang, are you jealous of me now?" Jing Zhe shot him a calm glance, "She’s my sister, whether emotionally or in status, she’s my sister. To be jealous of your brother-in-law, think carefully about the consequences."

"You’re overthinking..." Zhou Mikang glared at him, "My wife is pregnant now, and during this dangerous period, her emotions shouldn’t rise and fall too drastically. No huge dips or peaks."

Jing Zhe looked at him amusedly, "I’m a doctor, and my specialty in gynecology isn’t bad."

"Don’t treat relatives."

Jing Zhe: "..." Is that even a reason?

"Why are you home so early?" Chuxia quickly changed the subject.

"Early?" Zhou Mikang furrowed his brows further and stretched his wrist in front of her, "Look what time it is?"

"Oh, oh, oh, I didn’t check the time, I thought it was only around three..."

Jing Zhe covered his forehead. He had just praised her for being insightful and articulate, yet here she was, getting confused in front of a certain commander; as expected, Zhou Mikang’s face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot the moment Chuxia’s words fell. Ignoring whether people might notice, he took her hand and said, "Let’s go, back to the room to rest."

Knowing resistance wouldn’t pay off, Chuxia obediently stood up and followed Zhou Mikang back to the room.

"Hehe..." Once the door was closed, she smiled at him flatteringly, "I really didn’t check the time; otherwise, I wouldn’t have said that."

"Lie down and rest, I’ll call you when it’s time to eat." Captain Tongzi ignored her words and insisted she rest.

"Are you mad at me?" Chuxia tugged at his sleeve playfully, "Jing Zhe is my brother, he really treats me like his own sister. I wouldn’t smile like that at anyone else."

"I’m not angry..." Captain Tongzi tried hard to squeeze out a smile, "But, it’s better if you don’t smile at other men like that from now on, misunderstandings can be troublesome."

He was obviously jealous, yet refused to admit it.

"Alright, alright, I’ll be careful. I’m a bit vain, get happy when praised. From now on, I’ll try to keep a straight face even when complimented, okay?"

Captain Tongzi: "..." Is she indirectly refuting him? This little thing is getting bolder... But, she’s pregnant, so let it be, won’t bother over it!

"Why are you gritting your teeth? Do you want to eat me?" Someone closely watching Captain Tongzi put on a pitiful look and shrank back, "I’ll listen to you, I won’t smile from now on, how’s that..."

"That’s not what I meant..." Zhou Mikang quickly interrupted her, what a joke, if she wore a serious face every day, the elders would all worry to death. This little rascal was being deliberate, but hey, she’s pregnant, so let it be, I’ll bear with it! "It’s my fault, actually, everything didn’t go smoothly at work today, and I brought my mood home. I’ll change that from now on."

"Who’s giving you a hard time?" Today, Chuxia was determined to argue with Captain Tongzi, refusing to let it go no matter how he tried to explain.

"No one’s giving me a hard time, there’s just a difference of opinion with some people..." Zhou Mikang paused and sighed, "Lin Wenbin is about to take on his new position, so his leisurely days are coming to an end, but that Jiang Jiaming is just too stubborn!"

Chuxia blurted out, "More stubborn than you?"

"I’m stubborn but reasonable."

So she thought, does that mean Jiang Jiaming is being unreasonable? Chuxia’s curiosity was piqued, she sat up straight and eagerly looked at him, "What’s going on anyway? Can you tell me?"

"Your current task is to take care of yourself, don’t worry about anything else." Zhou Mikang refused to answer.

Chuxia pouted dissatisfiedly and lay down, thought for a moment, then turned her back to Zhou Mikang.

Sitting silently for quite a while, seeing her lying still and stiff, Zhou Mikang had no choice but to compromise, "It’s nothing major, he just has issues with changing partners, knowing about my connection with Lin Wenbin, he intentionally opposes me. Don’t worry, I’ll handle it well, and when Lin Wenbin takes his position, I’ll try my best not to make things difficult for him."

"Someone dares to oppose you deliberately?" Curiosity took over, making Chuxia completely forget her anger, as she sat up with wide eyes, "Are you kidding me?"

Zhou Mikang felt a black line form in his mind, "Do I look like King Yan in your eyes?"

Chuxia quickly denied, "No, no, that’s not what I meant. Besides, you’re so handsome, King Yan couldn’t compare. I’m just curious, with your skills and reputation, how could anyone dare oppose you?

Well, it seems my brother really picked the wrong place this time, with his meek personality, he’d surely be overpowered by the other side. However, Sister Yuan Hui did mention Jiang Jiaming to me.

She said that although he is a bit stubborn and difficult, once he recognizes someone, he’ll stand by them loyally. So, all things considered, isn’t it better than partnering with a two-faced person?"

"Exactly, he’s really stubborn and will not easily accept someone. But once he does, he’ll be wholeheartedly loyal. His partner Xiang Guohui went through a long period before being accepted by him.

Yet, ever since, he’s been protective of Xiang Guohui. In this case, the organization wasn’t entirely against Xiang Guohui; they consulted him before making a move.

Xiang Guohui, not wanting to create more pressure for the leaders, requested to be rotated to a local position by himself. Make no mistake, Uncle-in-law also helped arrange a new job for him, and it’s not a bad one.

Honestly, given his family’s serious mistakes, getting placed locally is already fortunate enough, but Jiang Jiaming just won’t listen. He’s convinced Xiang Guohui’s transfer is to make room for Lin Wenbin, and he won’t accept any explanations.

So, in the short term, Lin Wenbin will definitely have to endure some hardships. As you know, his ability to find footing in Regiment B will depend on his skills; what I can do is really limited."

"I understand." Chuxia nodded, "In the military, they respect those who prove themselves with real skills. If you forcibly protect him now, it’ll just make everyone dislike him more.

I believe, the soldiers in Regiment B feel about Jiang Jiaming the same way Regiment A feels about you. Right now, they’ll all think it’s because of him that Xiang Minghui left, so whether he can stand firm or not is his challenge to conquer.

Of course, I understand that, don’t worry, I won’t hold it against you..." Chuxia then rolled her eyes at him, "Do you see me as someone who lacks understanding? Hmph!"

Zhou Mikang: "..." Indeed, reasoning with women at times like this is impossible. Everything he says seems wrong. Well, since she’s carrying a baby, he won’t argue with her.

"Hey, if I have a baby, will you still treat me this way?" while observing his expression, Chuxia suddenly asked. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it on Qidian (qidian.com). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com.)
