Chapter 42: Chapter 42: Tiny Strawberries

—

The next day, when Jiang Mian woke up, her whole body ached as if she had been run over by a car.

Ouch.

It was truly unbearable.

"Awake?"

The man beside her turned over, his arm naturally wrapping around her slender waist.

Jiang Mian’s voice was a bit hoarse, "Fu Sichen, you’re so cruel."

Fu Sichen sat up, looking at the woman with a resentful face and said with a smile in his voice, "Thirsty? I’ll go get you some water."

Jiang Mian shook her head, but quickly nodded again.

"Then I’ll carry you."

Worrying about not being able to walk, Jiang Mian didn’t refuse when Fu Sichen offered and actively extended her arms.

Fu Sichen scooped Jiang Mian into his arms, and like a koala, she clung to the man with her head buried in his neck and shoulder, looking completely lazy.

Jiang Mian had just taken a few sips of warm water when the doorbell rang.

Who could it be at this hour?

"Probably the property management."

Neither of them thought much of it, and Fu Sichen went to answer the door with Jiang Mian still in his arms.

"Captain Fu! Morning..."

"Snap!"

The door was immediately shut before the people outside could react.

Outside, Lin Chuan and the other subordinates from the military troop were puzzled.

"I’m not blind, right? This is Captain Fu’s house, isn’t it?"

"That was Captain Fu just now, wasn’t it? And there was a woman in his arms..."

"It must be Mrs. Fu."

They had intended to bring Captain Fu breakfast and share some good news, but now it seemed they might have caused trouble.

"Squad leader, should we leave?"

Lin Chuan was also at a loss, and just when everyone was in a dilemma, the door opened again.

When everyone saw Fu Sichen clearly, they all had similar expressions.

"Captain Fu... what’s this?"

They were used to seeing the stern and imposing Fu Sichen, in neat military uniform, formidable and awe-inspiring.

But now...

Dressed in a black bathrobe, casually untidy at the collar.

And most importantly!! The small bruises on his neck were especially eye-catching.

Oh my god!

They must have encountered something supernatural.

They probably forgot to check the almanac when they left home today.

Seeing Captain Fu like this might get them silenced.

Just when everyone was unsure of what to do, Fu Sichen stepped aside: "Come in."

It was everyone’s first time at Fu Sichen’s house, and they looked around.

"My god, Captain Fu, your house is so big."

"Captain Fu, are you some kind of wealthy heir?"

"A villa in North City Center isn’t worth less than tens of millions."

...

Fu Sichen poured everyone a glass of water, then lazily lounged on the sofa: "So, you’ve all learned how to surprise someone now."

He had told them when he left yesterday to contact him if there was anything urgent, and if they couldn’t reach him, they could check the emergency contact manual for his address in North City.

They had decided to give Captain Fu a surprise today.

It seemed more like a shock, a shock to them as well.

Everyone’s gaze turned to Lin Chuan, who gathered courage and said, "We brought Captain Fu some breakfast, and also to inform you that the potential dangers have been completely eliminated. Those people have been detained, and we’ve been allowed a few days off."

"We had good news, so we rushed over to tell you."

Who would have expected to see this scene.

Fu Sichen, tapping his fingers against the sofa cushion, casually smiled and said, "Alright then, spill the breakfast onto the plates. If it’s cold, heat it up in the microwave; I’ll go upstairs and change."

"Sure, Captain Fu!"

Everyone watched as Fu Sichen went upstairs, their tension instantly easing.

"My heavens, Captain Fu’s kitchen is so big and exquisite."

"Wow, don’t even say it, Captain Fu with this look is really hard to recognize."

"I even saw Captain Fu looking at a photo of a beautiful woman last time, one with fair skin and stunning looks. Then I asked Captain Fu about it, but he kept it secret."

"Captain Fu doesn’t seem it normally, but he’s actually ridiculously reserved."

"Pffhaha."

Laughter echoed down from the stairwell.
