Fierce Love: Bringing Wife Home
Chapter 430 - 50: What do you like about me?

Chapter 430: Chapter 50: What do you like about me?

Gu Xiaoxi listened, her brows lightly furrowed, and she turned to walk upstairs to the room.

Ever since her last visit to the Land of Kings, Yun Xiao hadn’t returned here.

Her presence today definitely meant that she had encountered some trouble.

Gu Xiaoxi stepped forward quickly and knocked on Yun Xiao’s room door.

"I’m sorry, I didn’t rest well! I plan to get up later!" Yun Xiao’s voice came from inside.

Gu Xiaoxi listened carefully and caught the tremble in her voice through her nose, evidently, she had been crying.

"It’s me! Open the door!" Gu Xiaoxi leaned against the doorpost, her tone strict, and even a bit threatening, "If you don’t open the door, I’ll kick it down."

A moment later, the door slowly opened.

Gu Xiaoxi pushed the door and went in, only to see Yun Xiao heading towards the bed, leaving her only a view of her back.

"What is it with you, is there anything you can’t tell me?" Gu Xiaoxi asked.

Yun Xiao lay back on the bed, hugging the blanket and covering her face, "I don’t want you to see me looking so ugly."

Let alone others see her.

God knows why she ended up with swollen eyes from crying.

There was no need to guess; she looked terrible at this moment.

"Ugly? What happened to you today? Were you beaten up, or tortured?" Gu Xiaoxi pulled on the blanket, but Yun Xiao clung to it tightly.

After a back-and-forth tussle, Yun Xiao couldn’t resist Gu Xiaoxi’s strength anymore, and the blanket was pulled away.

Her awkward-looking face was then exposed.

Gu Xiaoxi hugged the blanket and stared at the woman on the bed with eyes red and swollen like peaches, her lips pale. She was taken aback for a moment.

She didn’t expect that not only had Yun Xiao cried, but had also cried so intensely, "Did Ai Xiang bully you?"

Gu Xiaoxi could hardly believe that such a gentle man could bully someone...

But Yun Xiao quickly shook her head, "It’s something I did wrong!"

"You did something wrong?... Then why are you crying!" Gu Xiaoxi sat down beside Yun Xiao, puzzled.

Suddenly, Yun Xiao’s nose tingled, and tears uncontrollably fell!

Sitting on the bed, she lowered her head, and with a belly full of grievances, she said, "In the future, we might never have the chance to see each other again."

"I’ll make a call and ask what’s the big deal that has soured the relationship like this," Gu Xiaoxi said coldly.

Yun Xiao grabbed Gu Xiaoxi’s hand, quickly wiped her tears, and explained, "Xiao Xi, don’t be rash. It’s my fault..."

So, she told Gu Xiaoxi everything that had happened.

"Future wife? You damaged the keepsake left by his future wife..." Gu Xiaoxi stroked her chin, feeling that Ai Xiang was too nostalgic.

For a girl he hadn’t seen in over a decade, he was willing to fall out with the closest person to him over a bunch of dried flowers.

"It looks like she was a very important person to him," Gu Xiaoxi analyzed. "This Ai Xiang really has a wooden head, not liking the person beside him, insisting on cherishing those illusory things. No, I have to find him. Bullying my bestie, he’s going to regret it."

As she spoke, Gu Xiaoxi was about to leave.

"Don’t!" Yun Xiao grabbed Gu Xiaoxi’s arm. "Please don’t meddle in this matter. Just pretend you don’t know."

"It’s normal for him to be angry at me. Besides, it’s my own feelings for him. It’s not his fault."

Gu Xiaoxi looked at Yun Xiao’s tear-reddened eyes and couldn’t help sighing, "If you like him, you have to let him know. If he also likes you, marry her. If he doesn’t like you, then give up! The world doesn’t end without someone."

Gu Xiaoxi was always straightforward. If two people liked each other, they should be together. If not, forcing it was useless.

Why ruin one’s life over someone who doesn’t love you?

Though she hadn’t experienced much, that was just her character.

Yun Xiao stared at Gu Xiaoxi dazedly, actually knowing that what she said made sense.

She didn’t even have the courage to confess, so what right did she have to be upset alone here? No matter the issue, she had to fight for it herself.

If she didn’t even try, then there was no point in self-pity.

"Gu Xiaoxi, I know what to do now," Yun Xiao said with a smile breaking through her tears.

"That’s right! Look at your swollen eyes. I’ll get some ice for you to put on," Gu Xiaoxi reached to touch her face, "This is more like it! Without love, you still have friends, comrades, and our beautiful country. There is so much more we have to do. Dwelling too much on love, we overlook a soldier’s duty."

"Yes! I’ll remember it."

Only then did Gu Xiaoxi go downstairs with peace of mind to get the ice.

In the evening, Quan Shaoqing and Gu Xiaoxi lay on the bedroom balcony, both looking at the distant moon.

Gu Xiaoxi cocked her head, gazing at Quan Shaoqing, and asked, "What do you like about me?"

"What?" Quan Shaoqing felt bewildered, wondering why Gu Xiaoxi would ask such a question.

Gu Xiaoxi lifted her head, revealing her slender, fair neck, with her pretty profile set against the starry sky. At that moment, she looked as beautiful as a person in a painting.

She looked up at the sky and, persistently smiling, asked again, "Which part of me do you like?"

Quan Shaoqing chuckled lightly, "Why ask so suddenly?"

"I’m just very curious, what good points I have in your eyes."

Quan Shaoqing walked over, stretched out his arms to embrace Gu Xiaoxi, and let her sit on the railing facing him.

He propped his hands on the railing, looked down, his gaze closing in on her, his tone tinged with an irrepressible slyness, "I’ve been considering which part of you I actually like. But, after much thought, I can’t think of any merits."

"What?" Gu Xiaoxi immediately frowned and glared at him, "You’re saying I’m all flaws... you..."

Quan Shaoqing, however, ignored her annoyance, finding her especially adorable. He then grabbed her small hand and placed it in his palm, beaming, "Actually, even if you were full of flaws, I would still like you."

"..." Gu Xiaoxi snorted! Suddenly speechless, who likes someone’s flaws like that.

"Now it’s my turn to ask you!" Quan Shaoqing wrapped an arm around Gu Xiaoxi’s waist, looked down intently at her, and demanded, "Which part of me do you like?"

Gu Xiaoxi, flurried by his hot breath, hurriedly averted her gaze and explained, "I like a lot about you! For example: you’re wealthy, handsome, and most importantly, you’re good to me."

"That’s so cliché, but I’ll take the last point. However, there’s one more thing you haven’t mentioned," Quan Shaoqing emphasized.

Gu Xiaoxi was speechless, wasn’t it up to her to say which parts of him she liked...

"For example?" Gu Xiaoxi asked.

"At night..."

Gu Xiaoxi’s cheeks flushed red at once, and she reached out to cover his mouth to stop him from continuing.

They say dogs can’t spit out ivory.

A man’s mouth is always full of hoodlum flavors.

"I was just joking with you, I won’t say it. Let’s sleep!" Gu Xiaoxi turned her gaze away, trying to push him away in panic.

But Quan Shaoqing picked her up in his arms and walked towards the large bed, "Let’s do some of the things you like..."

"F*ck, it should be what you like, right..."

"Right! It’s what I like. Especially your screams!"

Gu Xiaoxi almost spewed a mouthful of blood! Angrily protesting, whatever happened to being cool? He was simply a shameless beast in gentleman’s clothing.

...

The next day Gu Xiaoxi returned to her squad. If it weren’t for her special treatment methods, she probably wouldn’t have been able to train today.

All because men are too beastly.

The first day back at the squad on Christmas.

The results of everyone’s three-month assessment also came out.

After morning practice, everyone waited for the results to be announced.

Once the results were out! Gu Xiaoxi thought, then they would be able to train closely with other special forces units and be sent out on missions.

By then, she would see her junior, Jiang Shichi, whom she hadn’t met in a long time, and Wu An, the squad member who had once given her trouble.

Over here, everyone waited for the results.

At Quan Shaoqing’s end, he suddenly received a phone call regarding dispatching a unit to an ally country.

In the early days in Liuli Country, they made great contributions toward their nation’s victory. As a result, they were one of Liuli Country’s biggest allies.

But there was a significant drawback because of the geographical location; the area was ripe for opium production. This led to frequent terrorist attacks, leaving the people unable to live in peace.

Thirty percent of the world’s drugs came from that country, even with relentless suppression and prohibition. For the sake of money, people would continuously find ways to cultivate it.

For a long time, Dongqi Country’s economy has been stagnant, and the nation troubled.

Almost every year, Liuli Country sends out hundreds of troops to maintain peace alongside the local military.

Of course, this year it was Z unit’s and L unit’s turn to send fifty people each to be stationed there for three months.

The peacekeeping was dangerous, to say the least, and also faced severe challenges.
