Chapter 540: This Time, the City, I Am Responsible for Leading the Team

"I don't need to know, and you don't need to tell me. Is there any of the previous sampling left?" An Yinan did not look at the old man, but instead looked at Feng Zhong.

Regarding the old gentleman's health, Feng Zhong was clearly more concerned than the old man himself.

Feng Zhong nodded, "Professor Feng took some away, and he sent me a report later. I'll go get it right now..."

Feng Zhong trotted away; he was not exactly young anymore, either.

"Be careful. Your health can no longer withstand any more strain," An Yinan said.

How could she not know the old man's unspeakable hidden trouble?

An Yinan also took a sip of plain water; the two people's movements were identical.

Feng Zhong, who came running from afar, only then realized that the atmosphere between the old gentleman and Comrade An was one that others found difficult to blend into.

"This is the sampling report."

An Yinan started reading from the first page, very earnestly. Upon reaching the end, she let out a breath.

"It seems they held back," An Yinan raised an eyebrow.

The old man smiled helplessly, "Nothing can be hidden from you!"

"That is also the reason why I didn't want to say anything."

An Yinan nodded and handed the sampling report back to Feng Zhong; these all needed to be filed.

"Alright, Feng Shu, tomorrow afternoon, go to Xiao Yuan to pick up the medicine. Use the Health Pill I refined first!" An Yinan said to Feng Zhong.

Feng Zhong hurriedly nodded and agreed.

Afterwards, An Yinan looked up at the old man, "If the medicine is finished and I haven't returned yet, then you must take Professor Feng's Health Pill."

Over these years, she had changed the old man's Health Pill three times, from the initial version that was too potent for his weak body to handle, to the later version that was slightly nourishing, to the current normal Health Pill.

"Fine, fine, fine, I will take it," the old man agreed.

Feng Zhong hid in the back, wanting very much to laugh, but he didn't dare, fearing the old gentleman would be embarrassed into anger.

After she returned to Xiao Yuan, she began refining medicine without a moment's rest, taking advantage of the time to roll out the old man's Small Silver Pill.

As for next time, even she herself did not know when she would return.

"Wife." An Yinan had just rested to drink some water when she heard the sound of the door being pushed open. She stood up, walked out of the room, and saw Chen Xun coming over with a beaming smile.

"So happy?" An Yinan asked.

Chen Xun nodded, "This time, for the City, I am responsible for leading the team."

An Yinan blinked; the gentleman's speed of getting things done was a bit fast.

Others might not know that An Yinan was going to the City, but how could Chen Xun not know?

For the past few days, he had been worrying about her. They were soldiers; without a special mission, they could not go to the City, as it would arouse suspicion from the local authorities.

But he was extremely worried about Nan Nan's safety.

The first person An Yinan told was also Chen Xun. He was the father of their two children; he had the right to intervene in her decision.

However.

"Whatever you want to do, go ahead and do it with peace of mind. However, you must protect yourself well. Don't do anything dangerous. Think of your family, think of me." That was what Chen Xun had said at the time, and she had kept it in her heart ever since.

But this afternoon, their Commander issued an order to select personnel for a special mission.

Upon hearing it was to the City, his intuition told him it was related to Nan Nan.

"Really?" An Yinan asked with a grin, looking at him with an expression of admiration.

Chen Xun helped her into the room. Just as she sat on the sofa, he leaned over, "Wife."

"Hmm?" An Yinan looked at the face so close to hers and answered with some confusion.

"I'm not doing anything, I just want to kiss you." As soon as Chen Xun finished speaking, his kiss fell upon her.

Ever since Nan Nan became pregnant, he hadn't dared to kiss her or touch her.

Every night when sleeping, although he held her, he didn't dare to hold her tightly, for fear of pressing on her or hurting the baby.

Now...

He was about to go to the City, and he wanted to kiss her, wanted to hold her.

Although he couldn't do anything else.

An Yinan leaned her head against the sofa, and Chen Xun was by her side, his hands supporting the back of the sofa, just to avoid pressing on Nan Nan at all.

An Yinan felt she couldn't breathe, so she reached out and pushed the person in front of her; the man's solid waist made her hand ache.

"Hoo~"

Feeling the hand of the person in his arms, Chen Xun hurriedly used his arms to support himself and got up.

Looking at his wife, whose face was flushed with shyness, he seemed like someone who had finally gotten a piece of candy...

And An Yinan glared at him indignantly. This man didn't know when to stop; he had almost suffocated her.

And she was leaning her head back, so her breathing was already obstructed.

"How come you still don't know how to breathe?" Chen Xun looked at her with amusement and went to the table to pour her a glass of water.

An Yinan snorted, "You think everyone is like you, learning so fast? Who knows where you learned that in your daily life."

She drank a mouthful of water in a huff.

He actually dared to mock her!!!

Dog of a man!

When Chen Xun heard this, he waited until she finished the water and put the cup down before helplessly taking her hand.

"I only have you."

Seeing his serious expression, An Yinan burst into a laugh.

She had just been joking earlier; who told him to mock her!

However, pregnancy really does change a person. Hormones affect the body and also the brain. Some things were not said intentionally; they just slipped out without control...

"Alright, we're going to Hong City, go pack your things, don't expect me to pack for you." An Yinan glared at him.

Chen Xun rubbed her fingertips, "Alright, I'll go pack."

After he left, An Yinan suddenly realized that for so many years, Chen Xun had always packed his own things; back when he was in the Northeast Military Region, he would leave for missions while she was perhaps just waking up.

Later, they were separated; she went to school, and he was in the Military.

Now that they had come to Beijing together, his few missions had all been related to her, and thinking about it now, it seemed she really had never packed his things.

However...

An Yinan only hesitated for this brief moment...

When she saw Chen Xun carrying out bags large and small, An Yinan blinked, "No..., are you planning to settle down there?"

She was only going over to look at the shops, she had no intention of settling down in Hong City.

If she said she wanted to settle down there, she reckoned her eldest uncle would break her legs.

"You are different from before; in the past, you could leave with just a backpack, but now you need more things."

Chen Xun opened a large bag and first took out a piece of cloth, "This cloth is very soft, suitable for a newborn baby; Mom said the baby's skin is delicate and must use soft fabric."

After speaking, he solemnly set that stack of fabric to the side.

An Yinan suddenly had a bad feeling.
