Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 949 - Chapter 949 Chapter 948 Not Sleeping at Midnight

Chapter 949: Chapter 948: Not Sleeping at Midnight Chapter 949: Chapter 948: Not Sleeping at Midnight Standing on the balcony, she happened to see Zuo Xinyao on the opposite terrace.

Why was this guy still up in the dead of night?

Zuo Xinyao also saw her, raising his wine glass from afar with an elegant and subtle gesture.

Nan Fei sneered inwardly, the epitome of the detestable capitalist visage indeed. Up in the middle of the night, drinking red wine on the terrace, he was definitely up to no good.

At that moment, the sound of sliding doors came from behind Zuo Xinyao, as Huo Kewei and Ning Di came in one after the other. Huo Kewei was muttering, “Yao Yao, what should we do with my uncle’s clothes? Who’s going to deliver them?”

Ning Di was carrying an oversized suitcase, which surely contained Bei Jiang’s clothes.

“If we don’t deliver them now, my junior uncle will have nothing to wear tomorrow morning,” Huo Kewei said while walking, “Why don’t you deliver them? I definitely can’t bring them now, if by chance I interrupt my junior uncle’s good times, even dying a thousand times wouldn’t be enough for me!”

Zuo Xinyao pointed towards the opposite side.

Following his finger, Huo Kewei’s eyes met Nan Fei’s mocking smile. She was so startled that she almost hid behind Zuo Xinyao, her mind racing over her own words, cursing her bad luck.

If her junior uncle found out, she was going to have a miserable time.

“Good evening, little auntie! Hehe…” Huo Kewei’s smile was stiff, with a hint of flattery, “Little auntie, look, the moonlight is really beautiful tonight! What a coincidence that you are also out here enjoying the moon.”

“Heh!” Nan Fei gave a cold laugh, not really angry but just trying to scare Huo Kewei on purpose.

She found it astonishing how fate worked! In her previous life, she had treated Huo Bei poorly, so his friends treated her the same. She could never have imagined that the aloof Huo Kewei would also appear guilty before her.

“Would you like a drink, little auntie? The wine Yao Yao has is all top-notch,” Huo Kewei said, trying to make conversation.

“No, thanks! Your junior uncle doesn’t let me drink alcohol.”

Huo Kewei: “…”

“Give me the clothes!” Nan Fei took the initiative.

“Thank you! Little auntie, I knew you were the best,” Huo Kewei said gratefully. When she turned her head, Ning Di had already gone downstairs with the suitcase. She hurried toward the railing and saw Ning Di standing at Nan Fei’s doorstep.

Huo Bei had climbed over the wall to get in, and the main door was still securely locked from the inside.

Nan Fei put on a coat and went downstairs to retrieve the luggage.

“Sister-in-law, where is our division commander?” After handing over the luggage, Ning Di couldn’t help but ask, “Our division commander has injuries that still need treating. There are medical supplies in the suitcase.”

“He has already fallen asleep, and his wounds have been dressed.”

“Thank you, sister-in-law,” Ning Di said sincerely. He was the only one who knew that Bei Jiang and Nan Fei were already married and had registered their marriage. Therefore, this “sister-in-law” from Ning Di was the most heartfelt. Others called Nan Fei that merely to please Huo Bei.

Some even didn’t have high hopes. But Ning Di knew better than anyone; their leader had fallen – totally, utterly smitten with Nan Fei.

Moreover, the two were already truly husband and wife.

She was the 36th Division’s, the Snow Eagle’s, unquestionably first military wife.

Nan Fei smiled awkwardly, actually, she was the one who should be saying thank you.

“Is everything ready for tomorrow’s funeral?” she suddenly asked.

Ning Di was taken aback before nodding.

“And your plans?” Nan Fei’s smile had vanished, replaced by a serious and aggressive demeanor. Even in front of the stoic Ning Di, she held her own without losing an ounce of presence.
