Elder Sister had returned, so the store had an extra pair of hands. Cheng Su didn’t stay long and took her study materials back home.
As she opened the door, Cheng Su saw a military duffel bag on the floor and paused, then a burst of joy followed.
From the bathroom, the sound of running water could be heard.
Cheng Su hung up her purse and walked to the bathroom door. She knocked and asked, "Taiguo, is that you?"
The bathroom door opened, and Qi Taiguo emerged with his head covered in foam, giving her a smile, "Yes, it’s me. You’re back?"
Cheng Su smiled too, "Mhm, you came back pretty quickly. You finish up; I’m going out to buy some ingredients to cook."
"Okay, don’t fuss too much, just a simple fish dish will do!"
Cheng Su went back to get her keys, and behind her came Qi Taiguo’s voice.
Cheng Su’s heart couldn’t help but feel uplifted.
A simple meal, a cozy chat between the couple while dining, was very heartwarming.
After eating and cleaning up together, and then getting ready for bed, they finally sat down on the sofa to talk.
Cheng Su rested her head on his thigh, saying, "I thought you wouldn’t be back for another couple of days. How did it go? The mission was a success?"
Qi Taiguo was stroking her hair. Hearing this question, his hand hesitated, "It went well enough, no significant losses."
Cheng Su tilted her head up slightly, "Any hitches?"
"There was a bit of a mess, but no one got hurt." Qi Taiguo chuckled and changed the subject, "What about you, where did you go? I thought I’d see you when I got back. Didn’t you say you were going to hole up with your books?"
Cheng Su sighed.
