Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander-Chapter 1230 - 810: A Step Closer / Intention (Two-in-One) Part 4

On the way back to Capital City, I wanted to find an opportunity to talk to him, but he deliberately avoided sharing a car with me, so I couldn’t say anything. In the end, I could only come to find you.

Otherwise, how about I just go back home with you? I can pay a visit to Uncle and Aunt, and then we can go to your room, and I’ll tell you all about Zuo Hai in detail."

"Alright, let’s go together then." Chuxia agreed without hesitation, given that there were so many people at home, and since Huang Suai was engaged to Lin Wenhang, bringing her home wasn’t a big deal.

Unexpectedly, halfway there, they encountered Division Commander Tongzi, who frowned upon seeing Huang Suai with Chuxia: "What are you doing looking for my wife?"

"See that?" Huang Suai glanced at Chuxia, "He’s always so hostile toward me. Now you understand why I haven’t told him, right?"

"Let’s go home." Zhou Mikang didn’t even look at Huang Suai, pulled his young wife closer, nodded slightly towards Wu Jingbo as a greeting, and turned to head home.

Huang Suai smiled helplessly and followed them.

Wu Jingbo kept observing her curiously, puzzled as to why someone like Huang Suai, who was so talented, had to be humble around Zhou Mikang. Why was that?

"Who else is coming?" Chuxia looked over at Zhou Mikang and asked.

"Grandpa, Grandma, and Mom have arrived. Dad might be a bit late; he went to discuss something with Uncle Long first." As Zhou Mikang spoke, he pulled her closer to him, "Make sure you head straight home after school. You know your situation, right?"

Chuxia nodded quickly: "Yes."

Seeing his young wife’s good attitude, Zhou Mikang’s expression softened significantly.

Quite a few classmates were watching Chuxia and Zhou Mikang as they walked, whispering among themselves, causing Chuxia to murmur quietly: "Now I’m even more famous."

"It’s okay, being famous like this is pretty safe."

Chuxia: "..."

Following behind them, Wu Jingbo looked uncomfortable. A commanding figure like Division Commander Tongzi being so petty was a surprise to her. Would she be labeled as annoying?

In contrast, Huang Suai’s lowered gaze was full of envy. A woman protected by such a man was truly blessed; unfortunately, she didn’t have such luck. Alas!

Upon arriving home and seeing Huang Suai following, the elders were visibly surprised, but they quickly focused on Chuxia, who they hadn’t seen for quite some time. Old Madam Zhou and Lin Yanqiu looked at Chuxia like she was some kind of treasure.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law pulled Chuxia close to sit beside them, asking about her wellbeing with genuine concern. Chuxia knew they were sincerely caring, patiently answering each question until Old Master Zhou couldn’t hold back and glared at them: "If you keep nagging, Yulan and Baohe might not appreciate it. How could they not properly care for their daughter here?"

"We don’t mean it that way..." Old Madam Zhou glared at the old man, "Don’t stir things up. We understand well how much Baohe and Yulan cherish Chuxia, but some things must be said by Chuxia herself so we can be at ease. Meanwhile, you just sit there while your granddaughter-in-law is back; shame on you for sitting tight!"

Old Master Zhou: "..." If he couldn’t sit, what should he do? Pull his granddaughter-in-law in front of him like they did and nag her endlessly? If he did that, people might think he’s gone senile!

Realizing she may have gone overboard, Old Madam Zhou cleared her throat awkwardly: "I was just illustrating a point, not suggesting you really follow us. Still, you ought to show some concern, right?"

Old Master Wan chuckled and chimed in, "Old Zhou, no matter what you do now, she won’t be satisfied. It’s not about what you did wrong; you just chimed in wrongly before."

Old Master Zhou nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, you said it. I’ve lived for so many years, why haven’t I figured it out?"

"Even if you live that long again, you won’t understand." Old Madam Zhou rolled her eyes at him, "I think you should stop coming along next time, not only being unhelpful but also causing trouble."

Old Master Zhou: "..." What trouble did he cause?

Chuxia smiled at the elders: "Grandpa, Grandma, Mom, Doctor Huang has something to tell me. I’ll go upstairs and talk with her for a moment?"

"Just say it right here..." Old Madam Zhou looked at Huang Suai, "Xiao Huang, hope you don’t mind me saying this, we’re all family with Chuxia, so talking to her doesn’t require secrecy, right?"
