The next day, Zhang Shanni told her in-laws that she wanted to go to Tanning Temple to offer incense and seek a peace charm, then Xie Jingchen chid in, suggesting that she stay with him at the military base for a few days.
Zhou Xiuhua thought that San’er had been less busy these days and had ti to accompany his wife, so she nodded imdiately.
Now seeing the greatly slimd-down Old Five, she was completely focused on him, thinking about how to properly nourish Xie Jingyang’s body.
Fortunately, this ti her younger son ca back and was not leaving.
After enjoying a lovingly prepared at porridge breakfast by her mother-in-law, Zhang Shanni followed her husband and left in his military car.
Xie Jingchen was genuinely busy with work; he summoned Yan Jinchang to take good care of his young wife while he attended to his duties.
As soon as Zhang Shanni got out of the car, she said she wanted to seek a peace charm first; the main hall was only a few steps away from his office.
He knew his cousin truly cherished his little wife wholeheartedly, so he used the opportunity to give the siblings so ti together.
Of course, this was also because Zhang Shanni had no displeasure or aversion towards Yan Jinchang.
Moreover, it was the young wife who insisted on having Yan Jinchang accompany her.
"Little sister." As soon as Yan Jinchang heard his younger sister had arrived, he didn’t wait for Xie Jingchen’s call and rushed to her, drenched in sweat.
"Commander Yan Rong." Zhang Shanni nodded.
Whatever Yan Jinchang called her, so be it; she had tried to correct him several tis, and he always looked at her with a pitiful face, as if she had committed a heinous cri; what more could she do?
Let everyone call each other as they wish.
Seeing that he had arrived, Zhang Shanni didn’t wait for him to say anything but led him into the main hall where the Goddess of rcy, who bestows salvation upon all beings, was enshrined. She sincerely knelt on the cushion, bowed three tis, then stood up with the help of Yan Jinchang.
After contributing money for the incense oil, she bought many peace charms at the fortune-telling spot, so for the Xie family, and even gave one to Yan Jinchang. She also requested that he pass another to Yan Jinsi.
As for the Yan family, she now only had good feelings towards these two.
Because she had secretly administered dicine to Yan Jinsi and given him Spirit Core Water during his hospital stay, her husband also secretly fed him so Superpower Water.
This enabled Yan Jinsi’s body to hold on for another three to five months.
Unless he contracted an infection, there would be no danger until she gave birth.
"Thank you..." Yan Jinchang clutched the two peace charms in his hand, feeling deeply touched.
Actually, his little sister wasn’t cold-hearted; it was just that her piercing eyes saw through people’s hearts too clearly.
She took note of anyone who treated her ’fairly’.
"You’re welco. You can leave now; I’d like to wander around." Zhang Shanni nodded casually, waving her hand.
She looked around, decided on a direction, and started walking slowly—feeling that if she delayed visiting the Holy Peach Tree any longer, the Peach Tree Spirit might start rebelling in her mind.
"This..." Yan Jinchang wanted to say sothing else but saw their leader, who seed to have been waiting for a long ti, already ahead of his little sister!
"Husband, how are you free to co here?" Zhang Shanni wasn’t surprised; she slowly approached him and imdiately grabbed his large hand.
Regardless of the many Big Head Soldiers hiding in the hidden spots around them!
Ever since Zhang Shanni heard Qin Yanzi call her husband ’husband’, she knew that although the term wasn’t widely used, it was still beloved by many. Thus, calling him that felt natural without any pressure.
As for her behavior now, Rong Wei might think it makes him look less imposing, but she just scoffed at the thought. If you really have the guts, go find Xie Jingchen.
If getting close to a woman makes him lose his imposing aura, then it might be best if he wasn’t Rong Wei.
"You just can’t stay put, can you?" Xie Jingchen whispered in her ear.
When Xie Jingchen abruptly heard that his wife wanted to visit Tanning Temple, he was resistant. Knowing she would co by herself if he didn’t bring her, he realized her trip was no simple matter.
Thinking of his little wife’s endless special tricks, he could only nod.
Having him by her side to protect her was better than her acting alone.
"Honey!" Zhang Shanni hugged his arm, leaning most of her body weight on him, and cooed persistently.
"Alright, I’m not upset with you. Wife, have you discovered sothing?" Xie Jingchen, maintaining their close position, whispered in his little wife’s ear.
Since he knew that soone had drugged him, he guessed it was either Wang Xiuxiu or Zheng Changqing.
Then he thought, his wife was just worried about him, how could he bla her? It was him who should be responsible.
If anything, he could only bla himself for being too incapable.
"Mmm, honey, don’t make a sound. The person who drugged you is definitely not a simple figure. Let check what it is that makes batches of people want to find it."
Zhang Shanni shrugged her shoulders, a light smile on her face but her sweet voice echoed in Xie Jingchen’s mind.
Xie Jingchen nodded without any change in expression, he knew his little wife was using ’spiritual power’ to communicate and explain things to him.
Throughout their journey, whether it was those officially on duty or those hidden in ambush, they had all been fiercely fed a dose of ’dog food’.
Who would have thought that the boss...turned out to be such a ’gentle’, ’doting husband’!
He would even walk arm in arm with his lover; Boss’s wife even dared to cling to the boss’s arm while talking!
Wasn’t it said that the boss was a cold-hearted, ruthless ’Xie Rash’...
That’s completely contrary to the rumors!
From the mont they stepped onto the mid-mountain, Zhang Shanni’s hand subconsciously gripped the man’s waist. Xie Jingchen looked down at her, following her gaze to the lush peach blossom tree.
"This?" Xie Jingchen, holding his wife, moved closer to the peach tree. "Do you like it?"
Zhang Shanni scanned the vicinity with her spiritual power, wondering if those Big Heads were avoiding suspicion or were just overwheld by their public display of affection, as they gradually disappeared after they walked up the mountain.
Clearly, they had received the subtle signal from Xie Jingchen and smartly withdrew.
Unlike the temple, in this half-mountain area, Zhang Shanni genuinely didn’t find anyone stationed.
"Honey, why isn’t there anyone guarding here?" Zhang Shanni circled around the peach blossom tree and quietly asked the man beside her.
"To be honest, we’ve scanned Tanning Temple from top to bottom with equipnt so many tis, and found absolutely nothing."
Xie Jingchen expressed his helplessness, they had begun to suspect that their deduced direction might have been wrong over this past month.
"Pfft, of course, nothing was found." Zhang Shanni laughed upon hearing Xie Jingchen’s words.
The equipnt brought by Rong Fang, which was definitely for detecting tal, could never find the ’treasure’ protected by the peach blossom demon at the tree roots!
"What, wife, have you found sothing?" Seeing his little wife covering her mouth and laughing heartily, he imdiately knew she had a new discovery.
"Honey, wait a mont, let communicate with ’it’ for a bit; it’s too botherso." If she didn’t solve it soon, she would be annoyed to death by the groaning from the peach tree demon.
