"Can you clean up some of the things first? I am going to get some food from the cafeteria for both of us and Sergeant Ge. I am going to eat with him later, are you okay eating alone tonight?" Lu Xingzhi knew that Sergeant Ge had gone through a lot and needed someone by his side.
Getting together with a character like Mrs. Ge was a huge mistake, Lu Xingzhi thought, he would rather be a single man for the rest of his life.
"I am not a kid anymore!" Jiang Yao pushed Lu Xingzhi and continued, "Once you are back here at the platoon, you do not belong to me anymore."
After giving Lu Xingzhi a piece of her mind, she muttered under her breath, "Give me a break already. Why is he so popular?"
"What are you saying under your breath? Speak up!" Lu Xingzhi heard only snippets.
"I say, you belong to me only when we are on the bed, understood? Shoo, go and get some food for me, I am starving!" Jiang Yao glared at Lu Xingzhi.
Lu Xingzhi was pleased. "Right. There are twenty-four hours in a day, and usually I spend eight of them in bed. That means I am giving you a third of my time in my life."
"I am your wife! What about the rest of the two-thirds? Are you reserving it for your concubines?" Jiang Yao snorted.
Lu Xingzhi pretended not to hear Jiang Yao's remark, rather, he replied, "Jiang Yao, you are the only woman in my life! Now, get back into the house, I cannot risk starving the queen, can I?"
