"Knock, knock."
Knock! Knock! Knock!
When Xiao Jing heard the knocks on the door, she was so nervous that she almost threw the things in her hands into the trash can and destroyed the corpse.
Shen Chengfeng looked at the time and was sure that she had been in there for five minutes. He could not help but knock on the door, "Are you alright?"
Xiao Jing took a deep breath to calm her agitated heart. She said, "It"ll be ready soon."
Shen Chengfeng looked towards the entrance of the washroom. He had locked the door, but there was someone rashly pounding on the door. From the looks of it, he had identified the person inside.
"b.a.s.t.a.r.d, open the door! The people inside, open the door!"
The man"s hoa.r.s.e voice came from outside.
Shen Chengfeng, on the other hand, continued to wait outside the cubicle as if he did not hear anything.
"Kacha!" The minute the door was opened, Xiao Jing handed the clothes back to Shen Chengfeng and lowered her head embarra.s.sedly, "Captain, it"s done."
Shen Chengfeng nodded and continued to put on his clothes, "Don"t catch a cold."
"Open the door, do you hear me, what is it?"
The roar of the man pounding on the door had already been drowned out.
Xiao Jing frowned, "Captain, when we open the door and go out, will we be hit?"
Shen Chengfeng did not mind and said, "It"s fine. It seems like today"s situation is no longer suitable for me to continue strolling around. I will send you back first."
"Bang, bang, bang."
The man had already lost his rationality. After kicking the door twice, he hurriedly took two steps back. From the looks of it, he was preparing to crash into the door.
At this moment, Shen Chengfeng unlocked the door.
The man obviously didn"t expect the other party to open the door at this time. His body lost its balance and fell to the ground. Aiya, he cried out twice.
Shen Chengfeng looked down at the flushed face of the man and silently prepared to bring Xiao Jing away.
"Stop right there."
The man stood up angrily, "Who gave you permission to lock the door?"
Shen Chengfeng ignored his glare and walked out of the washroom.
The man chased after him and yelled, "I"m asking you a question. Are you deaf or dumb?"
Shen Chengfeng looked down and landed on the man"s leg, "It"s missing."
The man lowered his head in surprise. As expected, he couldn"t hold it in anymore and peed his pants. "Just you wait. I"ll teach you a lesson when I come out."
Xiao Jing quickly grabbed her captain"s hand and walked towards the elevator without looking back.
Shen Chengfeng smiled slightly when he saw her serious expression when she was escaping, "Don"t worry, he can"t beat me."
Xiao Jing stood on the escalator. "After all, we are in the wrong. It would be better to avoid trouble."
Shen Chengfeng gently stroked her small head, "Madam is right."
Xiao Jing blushed, "Captain, there will be a lot of people watching."
"You and I have proof."
"But I"m wearing men"s clothes."
Xiao Jing put her hands in her pockets, her fingers tightly holding onto the pencil-sized object.
Shen Chengfeng nodded, "Yes, I will do whatever Madam says."
"Captain, are we going back now?"
As Xiao Jing walked out of the building, the sun s.h.i.+ned warmly around her, and the air seemed to smell of saccharin.
Shen Chengfeng followed her gaze and said, "You want to eat it?"
Xiao Jing nodded, then hurriedly shook her head. Her current ident.i.ty was a seven foot man, a normal man, how could she have slipped out of the street with cotton candy in hand?
Shen Chengfeng strode forward and returned with a multicolored cotton candy.
Xiao Jing pursed her lips and smiled.
Shen Chengfeng held her hand as they walked towards the parking lot.
Within the enclosed s.p.a.ce, the smell of saccharin became stronger and stronger. Xiao Jing took a bite of cotton candy, as if she had eaten a soft cloud at that moment. Her mouth instantly filled with a sweet taste.
Shen Chengfeng buckled his seat belt, turned his car around and slowly drove onto the main road.
In the car, there was only a slightly hypnotized piano piece.
Xiao Jing sat on the car with her arms wrapped around her legs. She looked in Shen Chengfeng"s direction a few times, but she did not say anything.
Shen Chengfeng stepped on the brakes and stopped in front of the traffic light. He noticed her peeping and said, "Do you want to tell me something?"
Xiao Jing lowered her head to her knees and did not reply.
"What"s wrong?"
Shen Chengfeng gently touched the back of her head.
Xiao Jing shook her head. "It"s fine, Captain. I probably have a little girl"s worries now."
"Looks like I can"t let me know about this."
The red light turned into green light. Shen Chengfeng stepped on the gas pedal and the car rushed out of the intersection.
Xiao Jinglooked at the scenery flas.h.i.+ng past her car, she murmured in a low voice, using a very soft voice, "Captain, since we"re both prepared to open it, can I, can I get pregnant in the future?"
Shen Chengfeng subconsciously stepped on the brakes and the car that was following closely behind nearly stopped.
"Bam, bam, bam."
The driver sounded the horn angrily.
Shen Chengfeng frowned and quickly recovered. He stepped on the gas pedal and the car started moving again. He said, "Let"s not think about these things for now."
"Didn"t you agree?"
Xiao Jing asked again.
"Later on, when I think about it, it"s not the right time yet. After all, you need more energy on the female army."
"I can work for the family."
Xiao Jing solemnly guaranteed.
Shen Chengfeng held onto the steering wheel tightly with both hands and shook his head cautiously, "Xiao Jing, the military is not as easy as you think. The initial stage requires ten to a hundred times our energy. Let"s delay the birth of a child."
Xiao Jing bit her lower lip and asked in a m.u.f.fled voice, "Captain, I have time to wait. What about you?"
Shen Chengfeng smiled and said, "I have a lot of time too."
Xiao Jing turned around and looked out the window, "Captain, no matter what, I won"t give up."
Shen Chengfeng did not say anything else. With this guy"s perseverance, he was afraid that he would be trying to crawl into his bed in the next few days.
In the army camp, the resounding military songs were exciting.
Xiao Jing got down from the pa.s.senger seat. She looked at the leader who did not get off the car. Instinctively, she squatted down and asked, "Captain still wants to go to the military?"
"Go and get the car back."
Shen Chengfeng opened the car door, walked around and stood in front of her. He then helped her with her clothes, "Go take a shower and then sleep. If you have anything to say, wait till I get back."
Xiao Jing took two steps back. Seeing the car drive off once again, she couldn"t wait to run back to the dormitory building.
The dorm building was quiet, with many people walking by, and the corridor was long and silent.
Xiao Jing didn"t know whether or not she was guilty of being a thief. Even going back to her own room was somewhat sneaky. She cautiously opened the door to her own room, then rushed in and quickly closed the door.
She patted her beating heart and carefully took out the paper that she had yet to read the results of.
"Knock, knock."
The knock came from behind her.
Xiao Jing reflexively hid the items in her pocket. Her voice was filled with obvious panic as she asked, "What"s the matter?"
"It"s me."
The old man"s kind laughter came from outside the door.
Xiao Jing didn"t hesitate and directly opened the door.
Old Lady Shen entered the dormitory with a beaming smile. "I just saw you back and didn"t have the time to call you back. Why did you enter the door?"
It seems that something very important has happened to you? "
Xiao Jing subconsciously shook her head. "I"m fine, I"m really fine."
Old Madam Shen narrowed her eyes, her gaze landing on Xiao Jing"s thin body. She was like a ferocious beast spying on its prey in the middle of the night. When she saw this, she couldn"t help but feel guilty.
Xiao Jing lowered her head, seemingly preparing to avoid the old madame"s bright eyes. She spoke from the left and right, "Is there something you need me for?"
Old Madam Shen sat on the chair and continued to stare at the other party. The air suddenly turned silent, causing her to panic even more.
Xiao Jing turned around, her hands trembling slightly. She grabbed the teacup on the table, picked up the teapot, and prepared to pour water. Perhaps due to her emotional state of mind, the teapot was clearly aimed at the opening of the cup, but it still spilled all over the table.
"Don"t fall, it"s all spilled out."
Old Lady Shen tapped the table with the tip of her fingers. "You"re a child who doesn"t know how to lie. Speak, what exactly happened to you that made you unable to speak properly?"
Xiao Jing put down the kettle and didn"t reply.
"Do you think that my wife"s words are unworthy of your confessions?"
"No, Grandma, it"s really nothing."
Xiao Jing handed the cup to him. "I really don"t have anything to do."
Old Madam Shen heaved a long sigh. "I really think that this old woman is too nosy. Forget it, if you don"t want to tell me about your youth, forget it."
Xiao Jing blamed herself as she lowered her eyes without saying a word.
"If you don"t want to say it, then forget it. I"ve only come to see you. I"m going back in two days."
Hearing this, Xiao Jing looked up in panic. "Where are you planning to go?"
"Where else?"
"My mountains and forests."
Old Madam Shen smiled faintly. "I"ve been out for a long time. I"ve seen the people I want to see, and I"ve finished what I wanted to say."
"Are you not going to attend our wedding?"
Old Madam Shen took a sip of water. "Let"s wait for the right moment. If possible, come back if you wish to partic.i.p.ate."
The room was quiet again.
Old Lady Shen looked at her lowered head and said, "I"ve told you countless times, don"t lower your head. You"re not inferior to anyone, understand?"
Xiao Jing raised her head, her eyes turning red.
Old Lady Shen stood up, "What"s wrong with this child?"
"You are a soldier, how can you cry so easily?"
Xiao Jing curled her lips, "Are you really going to leave?"
"I"m afraid the entire capital wants to send this old lady away."
"But I don"t want you to go."
Old Madam Shen held her hands and patted her lightly, "This child"s personality is gentle, humble and courteous, unlike your future mother-in-law who only wishes for the world to be number one. I am also a strong woman, and we are destined to be enemies. It"s unavoidable for you to be inhumane under the same roof."
"How could it be?"
"General Yan Jun is a good person."
"That"s because you didn"t get along with her too much, after all, I"ve been with her for decades. I understand her character, although there are times when her words are different, but most of the time she is domineering. After all, after staying in the military camp for so long, it"s hard to avoid being rough."
"Then you don"t have to leave, I"m in the barracks anyway, there won"t be any awkward places."
Xiao Jing"s eyes flashed with two big eyeb.a.l.l.s, she was sincerely looking forward to it.
"That"s why I like you. In such a big capital, I"m afraid only you want me to stay."
"Others do not understand you, so they fear you."
Old Lady Shen sat back in her chair, "Sit down and have a good talk with me."
Xiao Jing sat upright on a stool and listened to the madame"s instructions.
"I heard that my granddaughter is planning to build you a special female team?"
"Hmm, Captain"s planning to do that."
Old Lady Shen nodded, "That"s a good idea, but this Special Forces is not an ordinary unit. The ability and energy required is not something a normal person can bear. You"d better think of it, there will be no turning back once you draw your bow."
"I know the seriousness of the matter."
"That"s good. It"s just that, don"t make things too difficult for yourself. After all, you need to recuperate well during this period of time. Cough cough."
The madame coughed as she covered her mouth.
When Xiao Jing saw her suddenly cough, she hurriedly held up the teacup. "Is your mouth a little dry?"
Old Lady Shen did not drink water. She smiled and said, "It doesn"t matter if you don"t understand my words now. After that, you will understand. After you get married, you will understand even more."
Xiao Jing seemed to have understood the old man"s words. Her cheeks reddened involuntarily as she said, "Grandma, it"s a little early to say about this matter."
"Before, we were all worried, after all, your ident.i.ty could not be made public at that time, and now it is different. If you have enough military exploits, then it is time to announce it to the world." We were all worried before, because after all, your ident.i.ty could not be made public at that time.
Xiao Jing blushed as she looked at the shadow at her feet. "Grandma, this matter is not urgent."
Old Madam Shen understood the concerns of the children and was not in a hurry. She said, "Alright, alright, I won"t rush you. I can see that this body of mine can live for at least another ten years. I have plenty of time to carry my great-grandchildren."
Xiao Jing bashfully wrapped her fingers around her finger. "Grandma, can you leave after attending our wedding ceremony?"
"There are still a few more months before your future father-in-law thinks so highly of you. We"ll talk about it when the time comes."
Xiao Jing excitedly stood up. "How many more months?"
"Why are you in such a hurry?"
Old Lady Shen tugged on her arm, indicating for her to sit down.
Xiao Jing was indeed a little unruly. She sat back and hesitantly said, "When is Marshal looking at me?"
"It seems to be the second half of the year. Originally, it was April, but your father was in a hurry, and now it seems that he is indeed anxious. Perhaps he wants to wait for you to achieve something in the female army before announcing yourself."
Xiao Jing subconsciously looked at her stomach. If she really got pregnant, how would she explain it in a few months?
Can it be explained that the food in the army is so good that you eat and you get fat?
Hehe, I"m only fat.
"What"s wrong?"
Old Madam Shen noticed her sudden depression and comforted her, "You want to marry into the Shen family so badly?"
Xiao Jing quickly shook her head. "Actually, father"s worry is also correct. If the news of the captain and I getting married suddenly comes out, then it would be a bit inappropriate. It would also be good to set the date for the second half of the year."
"I thought you were worried that our Shen family will shamelessly not marry you."
Xiao Jing scratched the back of her head, "Grandma sure would joke with me."
Old Madam Shen stood up and walked around the room twice. She purposely walked to the window and placed her hands in front of it, looking down at the two or three figures that would occasionally run past.
Xiao Jing stood a meter away from her, not saying a word to interrupt the old man"s mood.
"This military camp is pretty good. Although it"s a little tiring, it"s still worth it."
Old Lady Shen gently lifted the hanging orchid from the windowsill. "The flowers are also exceptionally well-kept."
Xiao Jing picked up a small watering can and sprayed some water on the flower. "Suspending Orchids aren"t that delicate. Spraying a little water will bring them back to life."
"Just like you once did. Just by giving you a little warmth, you feel like you"re living a blissful life."
Xiao Jing"s subordinates stopped. They didn"t really want much in the past, so they didn"t think much of it. Now, however, they were overthinking it. They wanted more, and wanted better.
Old Madam Shen looked warmly into her eyes. "Child, don"t bear any burdens. You"ve worked hard to obtain all of this today."
"Grandma, I know."
"Alright, I"ve said too much today, so I"ll be going back first. You don"t look too good either, so you should rest for a while."
Old Madam Shen put on her coat. Before she left, she glanced at the child"s figure and smiled benevolently before turning around to leave.
The room returned to silence once again. Xiao Jing put down the small sprinkler in her hand. After some hesitation, she took out the test paper from her pocket.
The sun was s.h.i.+ning down on her hands from the window ledge, and two red stripes showed at the center of the paper. She frowned, as if she had forgotten something important.
Was one bar pregnant, or two?
Xiao Jing raised her hand to her forehead, carefully recalling the instructions on the box.
"BOOM!" "BOOM!" "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
The tightly shut door opened again, and Elder Shen came back. He went straight to the point, "I forgot to give you something."
