Chapter 1046 - 1059: Not Knowing One’s Place
Today, his little one was worn out. It was already almost evening, and she was still sleeping soundly.Mu Xingfeng washed the fruit that An Ran bought and placed it in the fruit plate. He also prepared the vegetables she bought. However, when it came to actually cooking, he hesitated. Recalling his past experience with frying eggs alone, Mu Xingfeng thought it might be more reliable to eat at the cafeteria.
"Wifey, wake up. Your husband will take you to eat."
Mu Xingfeng nudged An Ran. Since breakfast until now, when she came out of the bathroom, she was clamoring about being hungry. But now she’s sleeping unaware of the time, and he suddenly felt a bit sorry for her.
His gaze fell on her lower abdomen. In recent days, they hadn’t taken any precautions, so he wondered if there might be a baby there.
He didn’t want her to take over the company’s complicated affairs, nor did he want her to give up her dream university. But what he wanted even less was for them to be living apart in different places, seeing each other only a few times a year. If she had a baby, he could rightfully take her back to the Imperial City.
Back in the Imperial City, she could either stay with him at the team quarters or stay at the Mu Family to rest and nurture the pregnancy peacefully. On weekends, he would come home to see her. It’s better than the two of them expressing their longing over the phone.
Seeing that the girl didn’t react, Mu Xingfeng touched her little face again, "Wifey, get up. Your husband will take you to eat something."
"Hubby, stop teasing. I’m so tired," An Ran raised her hand and grabbed randomly, mumbling, turning over, and falling back asleep.
Mu Xingfeng shook his head fondly and smiled, picking up the lunch box to head to the cafeteria for some food.
Just as he arrived at the entrance of the cafeteria, he bumped into Jia Chenggang who came out with a bag of meal boxes.
Seeing the empty lunch box in Mu Xingfeng’s hand, Jia Chenggang was momentarily surprised, then a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.
He stood up straight, holding the bag in one hand and saluting with the other.
Mu Xingfeng returned the salute.
"Captain Mu, are you here at the cafeteria for a meal? Isn’t your wife at the team?" Jia Chenggang asked, looking at the lunch box in Mu Xingfeng’s hand.
Which family member wouldn’t cook at home? What’s the point of coming to the cafeteria for a meal? Even if occasionally something comes up and they can’t cook, it should be the woman coming to get the food.
Jia Chenggang knew Captain Mu couldn’t cook. Could it be that Captain Mu’s wife also couldn’t cook?
Thinking about this possibility, Jia Chenggang felt even less favorable towards that arrogant girl.
Thinking of the little one, Mu Xingfeng’s eyes turned gentle. He nodded and said calmly, "The weather is too hot, so I’m not cooking at home."
Not to mention his little wife was worn out, even usually, if he’s home, he didn’t want An Ran to handle cooking. His little one just needed to instruct him from the side.
"Ha, I didn’t expect that Captain Mu would care for women. But there should be a limit to how much you indulge them. Otherwise, they might become arrogant, unaware of their boundaries, especially our women."
Jia Chenggang, relying on the fact that he enlisted two years earlier than Mu Xingfeng and had been through hardships in the same trench, spoke with a somewhat instructive tone.
He still remembered Mu Xingfeng’s words, saying that woman was his pride and her ideological construction was very good.
He just couldn’t understand what kind of person Mu Xingfeng was. Brave and fearless, upright and incorruptible, imposing and honest. In Nan’an, anyone who mentioned Mu Xingfeng did so as their model example.
