Chapter 567: Chapter 567 This Excuse is Too Far-fetched_1 Chapter 567: Chapter 567 This Excuse is Too Far-fetched_1 Lu Jianjun observed his reaction, wondering if he’d asked for too much?
Then, he shrugged and said, “Well, Commander Lu, talk it over with the battalion commander, I’ll be off now.”
Considering how much the battalion commander values his sister-in-law, he was immediately rejected.
“Stop.” Lu Zhendong, seeing his son about to leave, immediately halted him.
A flicker of joy passed over Lu Jianjun’s face. As he turned around, he resumed his previous negotiation tone, “Commander Lu, are you agreeing or not?”
Lu Zhendong glared at Lu Jianjun, “Agreed.”
Seeing him agree so readily, Lu Jianjun paused, wondering if he had asked for too little.
Lu Jianjun’s attempt to skyrocket the price made Lu Zhendong absolutely furious, “No.”
Lu Jianjun stretched out his hand, “Fifty it is then.”
My sister-in-law can cook so many dishes, Commander Lu, you’re going to bleed out big time this time.
But then, how to persuade the battalion commander to agree is another issue.
It’s really a headache.
If he spoke directly with his sister-in-law, she might agree, but she wasn’t in the military camp, how should he convey this?
Seems like he will have to shamelessly accompany the battalion commander home once.
That’s the plan. Updates are released by 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦·𝘯𝘦𝘵
“Battalion Commander, are you going home today?”
Yun Hao wore a somber face, irritated to be asked the same question again.
“What a pity.” Lu Jianjun expressed his regret. If the battalion commander doesn’t return home, how is he supposed to discuss this with his sister-in-law?
He couldn’t possibly discuss this with his sister-in-law behind the battalion commander’s back, could he?
“Something else?” Yun Hao noticed Lu Jianjun was still there, mulling over something, surely he must have something else in mind.
Lu Jianjun chuckled and shook his head, “Nothing, nothing, I was just thinking how delicious and satisfying the stir-fried chicken with chili was.”
Yun Hao coldly cast him a side-glance, of course, he would mention that.
Because of that, he hadn’t been home these past few days. Knowing his wife, she would surely be working hard on preparing a big pot of stir-fried chicken, not realizing what a spicy ordeal she’d turned it into.
They may not care, but he did.
“Battalion Commander, if you’re not going home today, you should go tomorrow. How about we go together? It’s been a while since I saw Little Huzi, greeted the uncle, and thanked the sister-in-law for all the delicious food.”
You’re reaching with that excuse.
“I bet the last one is your real motive, right?”
Lu Jianjun chuckled twice, “Battalion Commander, you’re sharp.”
“No use buttering me up. State your intention. I saw earlier that the commanding officer seemed to be looking for you. Tell the truth!”
His gaze instinctively turned towards the office, “Something good, something very good. Didn’t you mention that you bought a bicycle for my sister-in-law with the bicycle ticket she won? I helped her win another bicycle ticket so that she can come to our camp and teach the cooks a few appetizing dishes for fifty bucks each.”
Yun Hao casually said, “Fifty bucks a dish, plus a bicycle ticket? I bet you added that bicycle ticket yourself, didn’t you?”
Lu Jianjun chuckled, “Battalion Commander, how’d you guess?”
Yun Hao started bargaining, “Forget the bicycle, but if you can get a sewing machine ticket, then I’ll agree on your sister-in-law’s behalf.”
Having seen Meng Yunhan sew clothes for their family, stitch by stitch, he thought that having a sewing machine would definitely make her work easier and faster.
