Chapter 1380: You Little Guy Are So Lucky

Fu Yan Cheng watched her turn and return to the courtyard, glanced at the neighboring yard, and asked, "What did she mean?"

Chuxue, rarely seeing him so meddlesome, couldn't help but tease, "Do you now have a heart for gossip too?"

Fu Yan Cheng reached out and pinched Chuxue's cheek, saying, "I was just thinking that Shen Kaiyuan is on a mission out there; what if he encounters something?"

Chuxue laughed, "It's nothing major. Originally, with summer vacation starting, she planned to return to the city to stay with her mother for a while, but she feared that if she went to the city first thing, Deputy Battalion Commander Shen would return right after. So she decided not to go to the city at all and just wait at the dependents' courtyard."

A few days ago, the army primary school newly built a row of houses, and they were preparing to paint murals on the front wall, but the wall space was quite large, and no one dared to take on the job.

Since no one else volunteered, she was conscripted; after the principal spoke with her, he handed the entire matter over to her.

She had learned painting before, though not professionally. A few days ago, I drew several clothing design sketches, and she happened to see them. Seeing my skill was good, she thought to ask me to help her come up with some ideas."

After listening, Fu Yan Cheng's first words were, "You can help her with ideas, but you absolutely must not go to the site yourself."

Chuxue looked utterly confused and, tilting her head up, asked, "Why?"

Fu Yan Cheng pulled her into the room, saying, "If she can't paint something well or can't paint it at all and asks for your help, you are pregnant and cannot climb high; it's not safe."

Chuxue hadn't expected he was worried about this: "Aren't you and Deputy Battalion Commander Shen close friends? Didn't you just say Shen is on a mission and we should look out for him if anything happens?"

Fu Yan Cheng replied in a slightly annoyed tone, "Looking out for him is no problem, but one must distinguish between closeness and distance, isn't that so? In my eyes, you are the most important."

Chuxue didn't expect this big straight man would now speak sweet words: "Who taught you that?"

Before Fu Yan Cheng could answer, she added another sentence: "But I like it."

The two had already entered the room; Fu Yan Cheng pulled her into his embrace, saying, "I didn't learn from anyone; I thought it in my heart, so I just said it."

Then he looked very seriously at Chuxue, "Wife, I am telling the truth. Aside from the great cause of family and country, you are the most important in my heart. Just consider me selfish."

Chuxue reached out and wrapped her arms around his waist, saying, "I believe you."

While the two were being affectionate, someone outside shouted, "Battalion Commander Fu, there is a phone call for you."

Hearing this, Fu Yan Cheng couldn't help but frown and looked at Chuxue, saying, "At this time, who would be calling?"

He helped her sit in a chair, saying, "Wife, you wait at home; I'll go answer the call."

Chuxue waved her hand, saying, "Go quickly; don't keep them waiting too long."

Fu Yan Cheng ran over; the timing was perfect. The moment he arrived, the phone rang: "Hello, this is Fu Yan Cheng."

"Yan Cheng, it's me."

"Dad, why are you calling?"

"Your mother was extremely excited upon hearing the news that your wife is pregnant. If it weren't for preparing nutritious goods for your wife, she would have gone over immediately. I only discovered the prepared items were missing after returning from work. After asking the Jiao family in the courtyard, I learned your mother went to the army to visit your wife. There are only a few shuttle buses to the army; time your arrival to pick her up."

"Alright, I understand."

Fu Father then laughed, saying, "You little guy are so lucky; take good care of your wife."

Fu Yan Cheng made an "Mm" sound, saying, "Of course I will take care of my wife; you can rest assured."

After finishing the serious matter, Fu Father finally complained, "Your mother really is something; we agreed to go together, yet she left me behind and went by herself."
