Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 202 - 201: Vice Commander Sheng Can Say Sweet Words Too—It Just Depends on Who
"Vice Commander Sheng, Vice Commander Sheng, are you home? Doctor Gu from Beijing called..." Sheng Zexi was just missing his little wife when he heard a voice from outside.
Sheng Zexi jumped up suddenly, rushing out like a gust of wind.
Then he saw the young soldier from the communications department at the door.
"Vice Commander Sheng, Gu..." The young soldier was about to speak when he saw Sheng Zexi dash toward the communications department, so fast that he only saw a blur.
The young soldier scratched his head and then smirked: "Vice Commander Sheng and Doctor Gu really have a great relationship."
Indeed, he thought, if he could marry a wife like Doctor Gu, he would also treat her very, very well, like a treasure.
Doctor Gu is indeed a treasure.
But wow, Vice Commander Sheng sure runs fast, truly deserving of being called our king of soldiers.
By now, Sheng Zexi had reached the communications department and picked up the phone.
Upon hearing that sweet and melodious voice belonging to Gu Jia Ning, Sheng Zexi’s expression softened immediately, his heart melting like water.
"Wife, I miss you so much~" He could no longer hold back his yearning, expressing it aloud, and in his tone was a hint of grievance, "Wife, when are you coming back?"
He had waited for his wife to come back for so long that even the flowers seemed to wither.
The young soldier who had just run to the communications department’s door hadn’t even entered yet when he heard this.
Young soldier: So you’re actually this kind of Vice Commander Sheng, huh.
But...
The young soldier still felt he should keep his distance and wait a bit longer before going in.
He didn’t want to disturb Vice Commander Sheng and Doctor Gu talking, otherwise, he feared Vice Commander Sheng might drag him off for training.
Meanwhile, how could Gu Jia Ning not sense the longing in Sheng Zexi’s words? A soft smile curved on her lips, and warmth spread across her features.
"Brother Xi, I miss you very much too." Gu Jia Ning was never shy about expressing her longing.
Whether it’s longing or love, these things need to be spoken out timely, letting others know and be delighted.
Sure enough, as soon as she spoke, she heard Sheng Zexi’s breathing on the other end become a bit more rapid, clearly showing his happiness.
"But I still need a few more days to return. Mr. Hua’s treatment is almost done, almost." Gu Jia Ning said.
Sheng Zexi: "Mm, I know."
Of course Sheng Zexi knew; it’s just that he missed his wife too, too much.
Without his wife, it’s hard to sleep on lonely nights. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
Gu Jia Ning naturally missed Sheng Zexi too. After all, Sheng Zexi was too thoughtful and attentive usually; leaving suddenly, she truly wasn’t used to it.
Sometimes, habits can be a terrifying thing.
After expressing their emotions and longing, Gu Jia Ning talked about the rewards given from above and how she was featured in the newspaper back home due to her lectures.
"I always knew my wife was capable; wife, you really have prospects."
"Did you know, it’s spread all over our military region here too; from young soldiers to leaders, everyone envies me, praising you and also praising me for having married such a beautiful and capable wife like you."
"Of course, I’m both beautiful and competent." Gu Jia Ning accepted the compliment without hesitation.
No one dislikes compliments, and Gu Jia Ning especially enjoyed them.
Perhaps knowing that Gu Jia Ning liked hearing compliments, Sheng Zexi continued to say more.
Young soldier outside: Oh, I’ve already moved far enough away, but alas, my hearing is too good, so I still heard it.
Just...
Never thought, Vice Commander Sheng, that you would be so clingy with your wife, and never expected you could say such sweet, complimentary words.
To know, Sheng Zexi’s sharp-tongued nature was well known throughout the Northwest Military Region.
They thought Sheng Zexi was sharp-tongued with anyone.
Turns out...
Vice Commander Sheng actually can speak sweet words, just depends on the person.
Not everyone is Doctor Gu; not everyone can make Vice Commander Sheng willingly speak tenderly and say sweet nothings like Doctor Gu can.
This call went on for a long time before ending.
At the end of the call, Gu Jia Ning also mentioned that Fang Wanrong had previously asked her to treat Sheng Xinhao, and the matter of Sheng Xinhao possibly being hospitalized due to illness.
"No big deal, that old man’s life is tough; he won’t die. Don’t bother with him; he probably didn’t understand the situation before reaching out to you. It shouldn’t happen again," Sheng Zexi said coldly.
It can be said that Sheng Zexi understood his father Sheng Xinhao quite well.
He knew this so-called father was extremely particular about identity and background, and valued face and dignity greatly.
How could he possibly ask Ningning to treat him?
As for what illness Sheng Xinhao had, Sheng Zexi had no interest in knowing.
-
At the Li Family, Li Tingxuan, who had just recovered from an illness, was reading the newspaper.
Prominently on the newspaper was an advertisement about Gu Jia Ning’s lecture.
Mr. Li happened to see it as he passed by and then noticed the expression on his grandson’s face, so he casually asked, "Does Tingxuan like this Doctor Gu on the paper?"
Li Tingxuan was so focused that he didn’t realize when the old master appeared and walked by from behind. He immediately put down the newspaper, got up, and helped the old master to sit down, saying, "No such thing, it’s just that recently all the newspapers are covering Doctor Gu, and I think she’s really impressive."
Mr. Li nodded, "She is indeed impressive. Our country is truly abundant with talents."
This Doctor Gu’s news had been overwhelming in Beijing recently.
"I hear the higher-ups regard this Doctor Gu very highly." After all, she is a very valuable talent. It’s said that after she gains more experience, there’s a plan to introduce her into the national medical department.
It can be said that Doctor Gu is a talent remembered by the authorities.
Even with Mr. Li’s discerning eyes, he also admired this Doctor Gu.
Lately, many people in Beijing were inquiring about Doctor Gu from the Sang Family and Sheng Family, wanting to make good connections.
"This Doctor Gu, if you ever have the chance, it’s best to get acquainted with her."
"Only she’s married, and she got married too early; otherwise, she’d be a good match for you, too," Mr. Li sighed.
Li Tingxuan lowered his gaze, a bitter smile on his lips.
He wished so too, but he was just a step too late.
But as everyone has said, Li Tingxuan is a gentleman.
Even if he liked her deeply, being late meant being late.
Now, he could only bury this affection deep in his heart, not letting anyone know, to avoid causing trouble for Gu Jia Ning.
This affection, as long as he knew it himself, it was enough.
He just didn’t expect the old master to be so satisfied with Doctor Gu.
Yet, indeed, Doctor Gu is so beautiful and capable, everyone would like her.
But there is only one such wonderful Doctor Gu.
"I heard that Doctor Gu’s spouse is also in the Northwest Military Region, the eldest son of the Sheng Family. Just in a few days, you’ll be heading to the Northwest Military Region. You could use the opportunity to make good terms with him then."
