Chapter 220: Who? State your name, otherwise don't blame me for taking action

"Nan Nan?" Zhang Qian was driving; he had originally come to pick up Qin Hao, but he hadn't expected to see someone unexpected.

An Yinan smiled, "Long time no see."

Zhang Qian slapped his forehead, "It's over."

"What's wrong? Why are you so jumpy?" Qin Hao threw his luggage into the car, nearly startled by Zhang Qian.

Zhang Qian said, "The boss didn't know you were coming back today. There was a mission that was originally mine, but the boss snatched it up and went out on the mission yesterday afternoon."

Lately, the boss has been like a madman; as long as there's a mission, he goes out, and he's also become much stricter in training those green recruits.

Everyone behind his back is asking, when exactly is the sister-in-law coming back?

Sister-in-law, come back soon and take him in!

An Yinan rubbed her nose; she had written a letter in advance, but she guessed that the letter saying she was coming back must have been delayed on the way and hadn't arrived yet.

"Let's go back first," An Yinan said.

"Yun Mo, you drive. I'll go to Nike Dashu's place to get a car." Zhang Qian gave up the driver's seat and then walked to a small tavern not far away.

The group returned to the Northeast Camp.

"Sister-in-law, you're back?" Xiaokang saw An Yinan getting out of the car and hurriedly greeted her.

Seeing Zhang Qian behind her, he immediately stood up straight and properly again.

An Yinan greeted him and led the group back to the Xiao Yuan.

The Xiao Yuan was different from when she left; at that time, the house felt warm like spring all year round, the stove was always burning, the kitchen hearth was always stocked with wood, and one only needed to wear a thin sweater inside the room.

But now, the room was very cold, as if no one had lived there for a long time; the stove and the kitchen hearth were both spotlessly clean.

"The boss has been staying in the dormitory these days, so the courtyard hasn't been heated much," Zhang Qian said.

An Yinan looked at the icy surroundings and said helplessly to everyone, "When Chen Xun returns from his mission, you all come over to the house for a meal."

"Since it's like this today, I won't keep you."

"Yun Shu and Yun Mo, you two go back to the dormitory too. Don't bother with anything; I'll tidy up slowly."

After the four of them left, she changed into coarse cloth clothes and then lit the stove and the heated brick bed.

Half an hour later, the room gradually warmed up, and only then did she use the boiled water to wipe the room clean, restoring it to the way it looked when they left.

This busy work took three hours; the courtyard was comfortable to live in and spacious.

But cleaning it was also a bit troublesome.

By the time Chen Xun returned, it was already the next day.

He first went to submit his mission, and after writing out the mission report clearly, he returned to the dormitory, exhausted.

"Boss?" Xiaokang looked at Chen Xun, looking completely bewildered.

Chen Xun nodded, "Mm, is it time to go on guard duty?"

Xiaokang came back to his senses, and seeing Chen Xun holding a basin, looking like he was about to go take a bath, he immediately thought of something.

"Don't you know..."

Chen Xun frowned; he hadn't slept for two days, why was this kid dawdling so much?

"Speak!"

Seeing his impatient look, Xiaokang hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law is back."

Chen Xun's brain didn't react for a moment; he instinctively took two steps forward before he came to his senses, turned around, and asked, "Who did you say?"

"Your sister-in-law is back," Xiaokang said immediately.

Chen Xun finally reacted and threw the basin in his hand into Xiaokang's arms, "Help me take it back."

That basin seemed to have a spirit of its own; it actually bounced in Xiaokang's arms, and if it weren't for his quick reaction speed, it would have been smashed to pieces.

Chen Xun ran quickly back to the Xiao Yuan and pushed the courtyard gate, but it was bolted from the inside. He found a wall, stepped back a few paces, and then with a leap, he vaulted directly over the wall into the courtyard.

He then gently pushed open the door to the room; the room door was not locked.

It was mainly because they were in the Northeast Military District, so An Yinan could rest assured about her personal safety here.

The main gate was bolted, but who would have thought someone would jump the wall?

He saw a small, fuzzy head nestled in the quilt, breathing shallowly and steadily.

An Yinan was catching up on sleep in the room; she hadn't even arrived at the Northeast Military District yet, and the translation tasks had already come down.

Having had the experience of the last mission, most of the materials this time were inclined toward mechanical subjects.

And there were six full large crates; he didn't know if her second aunt thought she was short of money lately?

Chen Xun gently exited the room, went to another room to take a bath, filled the stove and the heated brick bed with wood, and only then returned to the room, took off his cold outer coat, and lay down beside her.

"Nan Nan," he whispered in his mouth, lingering and deep, and then he closed his eyes too.

The mission had lasted for two days and two nights, and he had been busy at the team for another three hours doing the mission report. Now, smelling the medicinal scent on An Yinan, his breathing gradually leveled out.

Usually, An Yinan was very alert, but having been busy for a night and half a day, she was sleeping somewhat groggily.

When she opened her eyes, it was pitch black all around, and she suddenly felt that something was wrong.

The sound of breathing!

An Yinan opened her eyes wide in an instant, countless possibilities flashing through her mind.

Just at this moment, a dark shadow came over.

An Yinan immediately grabbed it with her hand and then twisted it with force...

Chen Xun let out a muffled groan, "Mm..."

He instinctively wanted to pull Nan Nan into his arms, his arm stretching out unconsciously, but he didn't expect...

An Yinan narrowed her eyes, "Who? State your name, otherwise don't blame me for taking action."

She had regained her clarity now; this was the Northeast Military District...

Chen Xun's wrist was still being twisted; just as he was about to get up, An Yinan pressed down with force again, "Don't move around."

Chen Xun..., his muffled laughter made his chest vibrate slightly; the sound was low, magnetic, and carried a sense of helpless indulgence.

"Nan Nan, are you trying to murder your husband?"

An Yinan had just heard the muffled laughter and felt it was familiar, and now, hearing the familiar voice, she widened her eyes even further and hurriedly loosened her grip.

"When did you get back?" An Yinan sat up and turned on the electric light.

She saw the familiar man before her, his eyes like torches, his brows like swords, looking at her with a softened expression.

Chen Xun pulled the person who was kneeling over, wiped her somewhat pale lips, and the friction restored them to their natural color.

"Didn't sleep well?" Based on his understanding of her, if she had slept yesterday, it would be impossible for her to be catching up on sleep now.

An Yinan just smiled, staring at the man beside her, "I had a mission."

Chen Xun understood; they were both people who could not help themselves.

"From now on, translate during the day and get some proper rest at night," Chen Xun emphasized for the Nth time.

Although he knew she wouldn't listen once she got busy, he still tirelessly said it over and over again.

He only hoped that, one day, she would remember.

An Yinan smiled like a flower, gazing at this man, her hand caressing his brows, his eyes, his nose bridge, and his lips.

Never for a moment had she known so clearly that she needed him.

Chen Xun swallowed involuntarily, his Adam's apple bobbing, but he did not move.

The tingling sensation in his heart made the veins on his forehead bulge.

But the young girl opposite him smiled mischievously and pursed her lips, "I'm hungry."
