Chapter 355: Chapter 354: What Canât You Let Go Of (Part 3) Chapter 355: Chapter 354: What Canât You Let Go Of (Part 3) Su Shu frowned, âIs there anything I need to be mindful of?â
Wang Xieâs eyes lit up, âWhen heâs not on a mission, try to have him use his left arm as little as possible, let it recover. Little sister-in-law, I havenât had the chance to congratulate you on your wedding yet. Given the current unusual circumstances, you should take more care of him. Old Tang, he doesnât listen to us, always trying to act tough. He doesnât even grunt when heâs in pain. Help me keep an eye on him, use it less if possible.â
He paused for a moment, âI know youâre newlyweds, full of vigor, and itâs impossible not to do some things, so please bear with him a little more.â
After leaving the Military Region Hospital, Su Shu kept thinking about what Wang Xie meant by âplease bear with him a little more.â
Outside, it had already gotten very dark.
Su Shu asked, âWhere are we going now?â
âPick up Xiaoâai, and go home.â The manâs voice, in the cold night, also had a chilly, indifferent undertone.
Su Shu fell silent, not knowing which of her words had upset him again, so she stopped bothering him and silently followed behind Tang Zelin.
Moreover, she made sure to always walk on his right side, to avoid accidentally bumping into his injured left arm.
Watching his usual movements, she hadnât felt that he was in much pain, could it be like Wang Xie said, that he didnât even make a sound when it hurt?
They walked a long distance, nearing the foot of the mountain, and could vaguely see a few people in the nearby secure area.
Tang Zelin suddenly stopped walking, turned around, and as Su Shu, who was looking down as she walked, did not notice, she bumped straight into his embrace.
âWhy did you stop?â
Tang Zelinâs gaze was deep, and when he looked at her, a trace of hurt flickered deep in his eyes, making Su Shuâs heart twinge with pain.
âSu Shu, I wonât exclude Xiaoâai out of selfish desire. Do you really have no confidence in me, or is it yourself you donât have faith in?â
âI donât.â
âIn your eyes, do I go out just to find an opportunity to take advantage of you?â
Unconsciously, Su Shu murmured an âMhm.â
Tang Zelin was left speechless: ââŠâ
âAh, no! Thatâs not it!â She finally reacted.
âIf I want to take you, anywhere would be fine! There are plenty of places! Why would I need to deliberately push the kids out?!â
Su Shu glanced around, âKeep your voice down, there are people nearby⊠Mmm!â
After the kiss, Tang Zelin turned on his heel and left.
He didnât understand where that thread of irritation in his heart came from, maybe it was because Su Shuâs mind wandered while they were intimate at home, or maybe it was the instant distancing she put up after she misunderstood him⊠Even though she was right in his arms, he always had this damn intuition that she might not only have him in her heart.
Always, in the blink of an eye, heâd catch a glimpse of her looking through him, as if recalling something else.
When he caught her, the little girl would either just smile or casually turn away as if it were nothing.
He could feel that when she was in his arms, she truly liked him, but whenever he wanted to take things further, she would show a hint of confusion and cluelessness, that expression blending anticipation with resistance, trust with doubt. She couldnât see it herself, but he could see it all too clearly on her.
Besides Shen Han, could there be someone else in her heart?
For the first time in many years, Tang Zelin detested his own intuition.
Previously on the battlefield, his intuition, extraordinary compared to others, always miraculously steered him clear of danger. After being with Su Shu, just by her rolling her eyes he could tell what she was thinking.
But it was precisely this sensitivity that made Tang Zelin unwilling to avoid the question that had been in his heart all along.
