"Hmph, I originally wanted to tell you about your hidden rival in love, but I didn’t expect you to... Forget it, I better not say."
Saying this, Hua Zhenrong pretended to hang up the phone.
Rival in love?!
The two words imdiately sent a chill down Sheng Zexi’s spine, even his expression turned serious.
"No, brother, are you telling the truth or not?" Sheng Zexi was sowhat convinced.
Although he trusted his wife, like he said, his wife was both beautiful and capable, it was hard for no one to like her.
And now, he was in the Northwest Military Region, and his wife was in Beijing, so far apart, it’s hard to keep a close watch.
"Of course it’s true. Although that kid hides it well, I, Hua Zhenrong, am a scout, how could I not see it?" Hua Zhenrong had this much confidence.
"Who is it, tell ."
"It’s soone from the sa compound as us, Li Tingxuan from the Li Family, you know him right..."
Li Tingxuan!
Sheng Zexi’s eyes instantly squinted, of course, he knew.
Li Tingxuan was also extrely capable, part of the sa generation as him and Hua Zhenrong.
You could say, in their youth, the three of them were the most capable in the Beijing Mansion circle.
Of course, the most reputable was Li Tingxuan, while Sheng Zexi, with his stepmother’s constant exaggerations, was at the bottom.
Sheng Zexi didn’t hold any jealousy towards Li Tingxuan because he knew his own capabilities.
He wasn’t jealous of anyone.
His interactions with Li Tingxuan were very few, almost none.
Especially after he went to the Northwest Military Region, there were nearly none.
So his association with Li Tingxuan was only based on having heard of him.
He didn’t expect to hear this na from Hua Zhenrong’s mouth now.
Moreover...
Li Tingxuan actually had thoughts about his wife?
Sheng Zexi’s gaze darkened.
He didn’t doubt Hua Zhenrong’s words, firstly, because of Hua Zhenrong’s background as a scout, and secondly, because Hua Zhenrong wasn’t the type to sow discord or speak aimlessly.
So was it true that Li Tingxuan had thoughts about his wife?
Sheng Zexi recalled in his mory the person Li Tingxuan, and when he rembered Li Tingxuan’s appearance, he frowned deeply.
For no other reason, Li Tingxuan truly looked handso.
That kind of gentle, elegant look.
He was simply a high-end version of Wen Zhqing.
Especially since Sheng Zexi knew, Li Tingxuan was soone whose inside matched the outside, not like Wen Zhqing, who was a hypocrite.
He hadn’t forgotten, his wife initially liked that kind of type like Wen Zhqing.
That belonged to his wife’s aesthetic.
So if his wife t Li Tingxuan, would she fall for him? Even if she didn’t, she would certainly have a good impression.
Of course, Sheng Zexi wasn’t doubting his wife’s loyalty.
He just felt a bit insecure.
He knew that his looks didn’t initially match his wife’s aesthetic.
It’s just that his wife married him, but if she were still single now and t Li Tingxuan’s pursuit...
He really couldn’t say whether his wife would choose him or Li Tingxuan.
Sheng Zexi had great confidence in battle, training, and missions, but in winning his wife’s heart, he had no confidence.
The only thing he could do was to try his best, to do the best he could.
Moreover, Sheng Zexi didn’t know what Li Tingxuan was thinking.
If Li Tingxuan really liked his wife, would he shalessly cling to her even after knowing she was married with kids?
Sheng Zexi didn’t understand Li Tingxuan, so he really couldn’t say.
Especially...
Sheng Zexi rembered that soon Li Tingxuan was going to be transferred to the Northwest Military Region, and it was said that Li Tingxuan himself applied for the transfer, what was his intention then?
Could it be his wife?
No, impossible!
However, no matter what, he definitely had to be cautious of Li Tingxuan after this.
In fact, at first, Li Tingxuan applied to transfer to the Northwest Military Region just for Gu Jia Ning.
If Sheng Zexi knew, he would probably be worried sick.
anwhile, after hanging up on Hua Zhenrong’s call, the sowhat restless Sheng Zexi still found ti to make a call to Gu Jia Ning.
When Gu Jia Ning received the call, she had just gotten out of the car and returned to the Sang Family.
She was naturally happy to receive Sheng Zexi’s call.
But...
"Brother Xi, you’re talking a bit weird today?" He asked if she had encountered any strange people.
Gu Jia Ning couldn’t quite comprehend it.
"No, no, wife, I just miss you."
"Hmm, I miss you too, just a few more days, and I’ll be back soon."
"Hmm, alright, wife, I’ll be waiting for you to co back."
They engaged in so lovey-dovey talk for a while before hanging up the phone.
Recalling Sheng Zexi’s sweet words just monts ago, Gu Jia Ning couldn’t help but smile.
Indeed, won love to hear sweet words, and she was no exception.
Turning her head, Gu Jia Ning saw not far away, Grandma Sang looking at her with a smile, evidently having overheard Gu Jia Ning’s and Sheng Zexi’s lovey-dovey conversation on the phone.
Gu Jia Ning’s face flushed red, "Grandma, I’m going back to my room."
Saying this, she imdiately went back to her room.
Once she closed the door, her hand touched her cheek, Gu Jia Ning found her cheeks burning hot.
Seeing Gu Jia Ning shyly returning to her room, Grandma Sang’s smile widened.
"Ning girl is just too easily embarrassed, but how lovely it is that this young couple is so in love."
As for Gu Jia Ning, whenever she had ti, she’d continue writing her report on treating PTSD.
In Gu Jia Ning’s view, this report was as important as the work on how to treat tuberculosis.
In this era, too few people knew about PTSD.
It would be best to widely promote awareness about it.
Then, two days later, when Hua Zhenrong’s treatnt was completely finished, so was the report.
Under the advice of her master, Elder Chen, Gu Jia Ning submitted the report to a national dical official.
"I hope it gets the attention it deserves," Gu Jia Ning murmured.
With Hua Zhenrong’s treatnt concluded, Gu Jia Ning was also set to leave Beijing and return to the Northwest Military Region.
"Ningning, I’ve booked sleeper train tickets for you and your grandma for the day after tomorrow. Xiao Zhang will take you to the Northwest Military Region and return once you’re there," said Grandpa Sang.
Actually, if he could, Grandpa Sang would have liked to go too.
But the current project had reached a critical juncture.
Moreover, tomorrow, from the Southeast Region, a young couple from a weapon research institute would arrive in Beijing.
This breakthrough in weapon research was credited to this young couple.
By the ti they arrived in Beijing, the weapon should be developed within a month.
Then, he could take a break.
He would visit the Northwest Military Region by then.
"Can Uncle Xiao Zhang go with us? After all, he is your guard," Gu Jia Ning asked.
