"I never saw this cheesy side of Captain Qin before," Yan Huan said sourly, her innate sense of superiority crumbling in front of An Hao.
This icy man, whose mere presence made people feel overwhelmed, was actually spouting such cheesy love talk to a young girl so much younger than him.
The affection in his eyes seemed like it was about to overflow!
"That depends on who it’s for!" An Hao smiled teasingly.
Yan Huan knew this girl wasn’t simple, her words implied a message that she and Qin Jian had a great relationship!
No interference from anyone was allowed!
Yan Huan knew it was futile to stay any longer. There would be other days for her to spend time with Qin Jian.
Now wasn’t the time to make herself unwelcome here.
A person who understands propriety knows when to advance and when to retreat!
As she stood up, she saw the bloodstain she had made on Qin Jian’s sheets and bent over to lift the sheets, "Sorry I made a mess; I’ll go wash this..."
"No need! I’ll do it! Don’t trouble yourself, Qin Jian isn’t comfortable with others touching his things." An Hao swiftly stripped off Qin Jian’s bedsheet and duvet cover.
She even gathered all of Qin Jian’s dirty clothes that he hadn’t had time to wash.
"Hmm. You’re right about everything," said Qin Jian with a smile.
Seeing her bustle about, Yan Huan felt she was truly the superfluous one.
"Now that the fiancée has arrived, I won’t disturb you any longer. I’m leaving now. Goodbye, Captain Qin!"
After Yan Huan left, she walked out of Qin Jian’s dormitory, her heart feeling stuffed with an uncomfortable lump of cotton.
With Yan Huan gone, only An Hao and Qin Jian were left in the dormitory. Seeing An Hao’s petite figure bustling around his space, cleaning and sweeping for him, heat rushed to Qin Jian’s chest, and he wrapped his arms around An Hao from behind, "Wife, are you upset?"
An Hao knew that Qin Jian was definitely not the flirtatious type, but seeing Yan Huan in Qin Jian’s dormitory today did unsettle her somewhat.
After her rebirth, she’d claimed Qin Jian as hers alone.
Considering the failures of her past life, she couldn’t dare to be careless and let such an outstanding man be snatched away by someone else.
Seeing that An Hao didn’t respond, Qin Jian asked again, "Wife, you’re not really angry, are you?"
An Hao turned around, her smile tinged with sarcasm as she looked at Qin Jian, "Comrade Captain, you sure have a thriving love life! It’s not just thriving, it’s overflowing! I, as a mechanic, can’t even keep up with all the pinching!"
"You’re jealous!" Qin Jian declared confidently.
"Not jealous, but I am angry," An Hao turned back around to continue her work, "not at you, though! You’re naturally outstanding, and it’s no surprise that many have their eye on you; I can see that. I need to think of a solution."
Listening to An Hao mumbling to herself, Qin Jian felt a weight lift off his heart knowing she wasn’t angry, "An Hao, you don’t have to be upset. There’s only you in my heart! You know that!"
Of course, An Hao knew that. If he didn’t invite romantic attention, who could guarantee it wouldn’t pursue him?
He was in the military; she was in school. They inhabited entirely different worlds, and she couldn’t monitor him all the time.
She was oblivious to whatever happened here, and Qin Jian, the tight-lipped man that he was, wouldn’t tell her anything.
"An Hao? What are you thinking about?" Seeing her silent, Qin Jian felt an anxious suffocation and his temperature began to rise rapidly.
