Hello, Comrade. I'm Here to Marry You!
Chapter 183: She Doesn’t Want to Pretend AnymoreSu Zhaozhao knew that Xie Huaizheng was always worried about her safety.
’Sigh. Who can blame him? I’m always running into all sorts of danger.’
’It’s only natural that Xie Huaizheng feels insecure.’
Thinking of this, Su Zhaozhao couldn’t help but move closer to Xie Huaizheng and hug him. "Don’t worry. You have to trust Uncle Li’s family. They’ll be watching him, and they won’t let me get hurt."
’Besides, based on my experience, even if Li Weichuan really hates me and resists treatment, he won’t get physical.’
’People like him are the proudest. At most, he’ll just run his mouth to try and piss me off and make me leave.’
’Get physical?’
Su Zhaozhao felt that Li Weichuan would be above doing something like that.
Xie Huaizheng thought about it and agreed. Li Weichuan wasn’t just anyone; he was Li Jian Country’s son.
If Su Zhaozhao went to see Li Weichuan, his family would be there with her. There shouldn’t be any danger.
"Alright, Zhaozhao, you can go talk to him. But don’t overdo it. If you feel like you can’t handle it, it’s okay to back down. Don’t force yourself."
Xie Huaizheng ruffled Su Zhaozhao’s hair, his gaze filled with tenderness.
Su Zhaozhao leaned her head against him in response.
"Mhm. And tonight, can we invite Aunt Yun and the others over for dinner?" Su Zhaozhao blinked, looking up at Xie Huaizheng. "We’ve moved in, but we haven’t invited them over as guests yet."
"Okay, but that will probably be a lot of work for you, Zhaozhao. Can your body handle it?"
Xie Huaizheng’s gaze fell upon Su Zhaozhao. Although he had held back a little last night, he had still kept her up until midnight.
Recalling everything from last night, Su Zhaozhao’s cheeks couldn’t help but turn red.
’AAAAH! Back in the modern world, I was practically an expert when it came to dirty talk!’
’But after actually experiencing it, I’ve discovered that men are much faster learners in this department than I am.’
Su Zhaozhao couldn’t resist reaching out and pinching Xie Huaizheng’s arm. "You can rest assured, my body is just fine!"
Xie Huaizheng chuckled, his tone teasing and suggestive. "Then you’d better not cry ’tired’ in the future."
Su Zhaozhao: "..."
After Xie Huaizheng left for training, Su Zhaozhao tidied up the house.
She also took the opportunity to change some of the decorations inside.
She brought out a few things from her space.
For example, she placed a doormat by the entrance. She had specifically chosen an oval, fluffy, solid blue one. Because of its simple design, it could pass for a product of this era.
She also took out two throw pillows and tossed them onto the sofa.
’If Xie Huaizheng asks, I’ll just say I bought them.’
’Since the space gave me so many things, wouldn’t it be a waste not to take them out and enjoy them?’
She then took a tea set out of her space and placed it on the coffee table.
Xie Huaizheng had probably been in a rush when setting up the place; not much time had passed between applying for the housing and moving in.
Because of that, many things hadn’t been purchased yet.
After arranging the tea set, Su Zhaozhao put a few packets of tea leaves in a drawer.
Then she started to boil water for tea.
She used the spiritual spring water from her space, as usual, and even filled both of their thermoses to the brim so that Xie Huaizheng could drink some too.
The spiritual spring water not only improved one’s appearance but was also very good for the body.
Xie Huaizheng trained often and worked so hard; the spiritual spring water could help him relax and improve his constitution.
Su Zhaozhao put a kettle on to boil. Once the water was ready, she began to brew the tea.
The tea leaves she took from her space were common types like black and green tea.
’All in all, I need to enjoy life reasonably, but without making Xie Huaizheng suspicious.’
’Although, given the state of our relationship now, I feel like it’s only a matter of time before my secret is out. Still, I should take it slow.’
’I’d rather not have Xie Huaizheng treat me like a monster.’
’It would be terrible if he had me captured for research.’
Su Zhaozhao sipped her tea, nibbled on snacks, and read a book. ’Life doesn’t get much better than this,’ she felt.
’How wonderful!’
She didn’t have the hectic work life she’d had in the modern era. She was very relaxed now, but that didn’t mean she had no work to do.
Once the summer break was over, she would start her job as an English teacher at the military district’s elementary school.
She also had to help some psychiatric patients in need.
She was making the most of her professional skills.
Breathing in the fragrant aroma of the tea, Su Zhaozhao felt that her life here was probably going to be endlessly wonderful.
’But what should I make for dinner tonight?’
Su Zhaozhao thought for a moment and decided to take a stroll through the market.
The market was still quite lively in the afternoon, but there wasn’t much for her to choose from.
She bought some vegetables and headed back.
She planned to make a winter melon soup. The weather was quite hot this season, so this kind of soup, which clears heat and relieves the summer warmth, was perfect.
But the weather would be turning cooler soon.
Su Zhaozhao felt a little emotional. It had already been over two months since she transmigrated into this book. Time really flew.
After she finished her shopping, she started walking toward the military compound.
She thought about the dishes she was going to make. As for the meat, she had some in her space that she could just take out. Thinking about it, this would save her a lot of money.
However, before she even reached the compound gate, she ran into Gu Qingran.
The moment she saw Gu Qingran, Su Zhaozhao’s good mood vanished. For some reason, she always felt that this female lead wasn’t as wonderful as described in the novel.
’It’s probably an occupational hazard. After just a few interactions, I can tell what kind of person someone is.’
Gu Qingran had a way of wearing her ambition on her sleeve.
’Is it because the male lead is married to me now, so she’s lost him and her interests have been infringed upon? Is that why she’s like this?’
’But there are so many men who like her, and plenty of them are outstanding. She could just pick any one of them.’
"Su Zhaozhao, congratulations on your marriage. You found a better man."
There was no one else around, so Gu Qingran didn’t bother to keep up her act. Her words to Su Zhaozhao were inevitably tinged with mockery.
Su Zhaozhao looked at her with some surprise. "What are you trying to say?"
’Better? It was definitely good to dump that pervert.’
"I’m just wishing you and your husband a long and happy life together." Gu Qingran thought it was for the best that Su Zhaozhao didn’t go back to Xie Huaizhen.
But even though she hadn’t gone back to Xie Huaizhen, the things she had done before were simply too vicious.
’Xie Huaizheng seems pretty great, too. She’s really gotten off easy!’
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She couldn’t help but continue her rant: "It’s true what they say, the shameless live the best lives. Does Camp Commander Xie know what a materialistic, snobbish woman you are?"
Su Zhaozhao was a bit taken aback.
’Gu Qingran is reborn, so she knows about how I broke off the engagement and foolishly offended the male lead.’
’Is she trying to stand up for the male lead?’
Su Zhaozhao replied, neither servile nor overbearing, "He knows everything. I’ve confessed it all to him."
Gu Qingran froze. "He knows everything? He knows you broke off the engagement because you looked down on your fiancé?"
"Wasn’t my fiancé Xie Huaizheng?" Su Zhaozhao found Gu Qingran to be completely baffling.
’She can’t possibly be thinking of fighting me for Xie Huaizheng, can she...?’
’She’s the female lead, and he’s the male lead. They are destined by fate.’
’So, I don’t even know if I can win against her.’
