Chapter 979: His Wife Must Have Been Beautiful
“Alright, we need to force the water out like this,” Zhou Yao said as he retracted his hand.
Bai Qi thanked the heavens. She could leave now, right?
“But some people who drown might lose consciousness temporarily. Under such circumstances, we should adopt another method, artificial respiration,” Zhou Yao continued.
Artificial respiration?
These words shocked Bai Qi. He wasn’t planning on… doing mouth-to-mouth with her, right?
The people around them were murmuring. Bai Qi didn’t need to look up to know that many jealous and unkind gazes were fixed on her. She understood what the female soldiers were thinking. She wasn’t pretty, she wasn’t a comrade, yet she had taken advantage of their hard work. This would make anyone feel uncomfortable.
As Bai Qi’s thoughts ran wild, a shadow acted over her and the man’s head was already closing in on her.
“What are you doing? Don’t tell me you really want to… do mouth-to-mouth.”
“Why are you so nervous? Relax.” Zhou Yao narrowed his eyes and said in a lazy and unruly tone.
Bai Qi wanted to kick him. How could he act so lewd like it was nothing?
He gradually leaned in, and his handsome and stern face got closer and closer. Bai Q gripped the soft cushion tightly with her two small hands, and her heartbeat raced.
The back of her ears burned up. She smelled the masculine scent coming from the man. At this moment, she suddenly felt that his body scent smelled very familiar.
A spark ignited in her mind, and instantly, a scene appeared in her mind. It was on the lawn of a hospital, and the two of them were fighting fiercely. Then, this man suddenly pulled her into his arms and kissed her fiercely. She’d never been kissed like that. He forcefully stuck his tongue of fire into her mouth.
He even praised her saying, “You taste good.”
Bai Qi felt a headache. She frowned and turned her pale face away.
Zhou Yao did not intend to really kiss her. He just wanted to tease her. That night in the kitchen, she brought him back to reality. She was right. So what if he was looking for Leng Zhiyuan’s shadow from another woman? His Zhiyuan would never come back!
He woke up from his fantasies and did not intend to fool around anymore. However, when he saw her again today, either standing in the back or staring at him like this, he felt tempted. When he first met Leng Zhiyuan in the past, he was also tempted like so.
Not only did her eyes and figure resembled Leng Zhiyuan’s, but she also had a certain temperament that attracted him like a magnetic field. He could always find a familiar shadow on her, and he could not shift his gaze away.
Seeing her pale face, which looked like she was in pain, Zhou Yao’s eyes focused. His big palm beside her clenched, and he asked, “What’s wrong?”
He was shocked by what he had just asked. What’s wrong with him?
Bai Qi did not speak. She slowly turned her head to look at him. Her gaze fell on the red rope necklace hanging around his neck. She had long noticed that he was wearing this red rope.
She did not know who had chosen this red rope for him, but it suited him very well.
She slowly lifted her hand and touched the red rope around his neck.
He grabbed her wrist before she could lay her hand on the necklace.
The man was very strong. It was obvious that the red rope around his neck was off-limits. It was like the gun on a soldier’s waist. It was a big taboo. Her wrist hurt a lot as if it was about to be crushed by his hand.
She raised her head and hit his narrow eyes. He stared at her gloomily, and she felt like she was about to be swallowed up by his vicious gaze.
The atmosphere between the two instantly became very oppressive. At this moment, a soldier ran over and whispered into his ear, “General…”
After the small soldier finished speaking, Zhou Yao released her wrist. He gave her a deep look before standing up and striding away.
…
As soon as Zhou Yao left, the crowd gradually dispersed. Bai Qi sat up, and Bai Bo ran over and pulled her up by her arms. “Bai Qi, are you okay? You don’t look well.”
Xiao Zhi also walked over. “Yeah, Bai Qi. What’s wrong?”
Bai Qi shook her head, “I’m fine…” Then, Bai Qi asked Xiao Zhi, “Do you have a photo of General Zhou’s wife? I want to take a look.”
Xiao Zhi was stunned. He obviously didn’t expect her to say that. Xiao Zhi shook his head regretfully. “I don’t have a photo of sister-in-law, but the general does. However, the general won’t show it to anyone.”
“The photo is in the red rope necklace on his neck?”
Xiao Zhi was surprised. “Bai Qi, how do you know? You seem to be very familiar with our general’s affairs.”
Bai Qi pursed her lips and did not answer his question, “His wife must be very beautiful…”
“Mmm, sister-in-law is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen! Sister-in-law’s facial features are exquisite and stunning. Sister-in-law and the general stand together as a beautiful couple. They are a perfect match,” Xiao Zhi said proudly.
Exquisite and stunning. What a beautiful face that should be…
Bai Qi touched her ordinary and typical face. She didn’t know why, but she should have been used to looking at her face. But it felt unfamiliar at the moment.
…
Two days passed by quickly. Bai Qi didn’t meet Zhou Yao again, which was very normal. He was a general, not someone an ordinary person like her could meet just because she wanted to.
After dinner, the army held a farewell party for them. They would leave early the next morning.
Bai Qi went back to her room. She couldn’t sleep, so she went out for a walk.
It was already winter, and the winter at the military base was especially bleak. Bai Qi hugged herself tightly to stay warm. At this time, she heard a sound in front of her.
She quickly hid behind a large tree.
She carefully poked her head out and looked ahead. Two people were standing in front of her. One was handsome and tall, while the other was petite and dainty. Bai Qi immediately recognized the man. He was Zhou Yao. A very beautiful and artistic girl stood opposite of him. Bai Qi also recognized her, it was Chief Yang’s only daughter, Yang Lin.
Yang Lin looked at Zhou Yao shyly and reservedly. “General Zhou, you should have noticed my feelings for you, right? Today, I mustered up the courage to confess my feelings for you. I like you!”
Bai Qi was stunned. Did she just witness a confession?
Zhou Yao stood upright with his hands in his pockets. He looked at Yang Lin and did not say anything. He did not have much of an expression on his face, so no one knew what he was thinking.
“General Zhou, I really like you. I want to date you. I want to date you on the premise of marriage. I think that I’m qualified and worthy of you. You have young master Sileng. He can’t live forever without a mommy. In the future, I will take care of young master sileng as my own child. I will be a good wife and mother. We will build a complete and warm family together.”
Bai Qi’s pupils dilated. Although Zhou Yao had mistresses outside, he had no intention of getting married again. Was he now looking for a stepmother for Little Sileng?
