I, The Female Protagonist With Superpower, Am Super Fierce - Chapter 210

Chapter 210: Can’t Let My Wife Spend The New Year Alone

Gu Yan didn’t know Lu Ye was feeling a bit jealous.

She nodded and said, “When I went to buy books at the bookshop, I encountered Captain Bai’s mother. She wasn’t feeling well back then. She fell unconscious in the snow. I carried her out and sent her to the hospital with other people. Captain Bai sent back a lot of things as a form of gratitude.”

Hearing the reason, Lu Ye didn’t feel too sour anymore.

His furrowed brows relaxed. “Aunty Xie’s health hasn’t been too good.”

“Mhm.” Gu Yan looked down and flipped Lu Ye’s jacket inside out. She suddenly didn’t want to discuss Xie Luan anymore, fearing she wouldn’t be able to hold her emotions well.

She asked, “Lu Ye, did you finish your mission? Today is New Year’s Eve. Aren’t you… going home?”

“I have just finished reporting to the superiors. I can’t make it back in time even if I fly.” Lu Ye reached out his hand and put a strand of Gu Yan’s hair behind her ears before continuing, “Plus, can I leave my wife alone during the New Year?”

Gu Yan felt happy. “I’ll put some dumplings in the pot. You can eat some noodles first.”

“I’ll go and grab it. Don’t go outside, wife. It’s cold out there,” Lu Ye cautioned. He then put on the warm jacket Gu Yan dried for him before going out.

Soon, he brought back a stock of goods.

Gu Yan said, “This is the dumplings. Put the other things back outside. Otherwise, they are going to defrost here.”

“Okay.” Lu Ye quickly went out again.

Gu Yan prepared two bowls and filled them with noodles. There was also a small dish packed with preserved vegetables and a plate of cut-up sausages.

This kind of dinner for the New Year was quite simple. However, for Gu Yan, it was plenty enough already.

Most importantly, Lu Ye was the other person who was going to eat it with her.

The two sat before the small desk and ate.

Lu Ye asked about her review progress.

The atmosphere was serene and pleasant.

At this moment, the sound of fireworks suddenly rang outside, breaking the silence of the night.

Lu Ye quickly started eating the second bowl of noodles. He said, “They are not allowed to set up fireworks in the yard, but there are many people doing it outside. After we are done eating, I’ll take you to see them.”

Gu Yan was interested in this proposal.

But…

“You just came back from a mission, aren’t you tired?”

“I’m not tired when I’m doing anything with you. And…”

Gu Yan looked up as his eyes flashed with starlight.

“… every second and minute spent with my wife is a pleasure.”

Gu Yan: …

Prior to her rebirth, she couldn’t recall Lu Ye being able to sweet talk like this. But then again, they were not dating then. Perhaps Lu Ye just didn’t get the chance to do it.

For some reason, Gu Yan thought of the sentence Lu Ye said before.

He saved up twenty years of sweet talk.

After the two finished eating, Gu Yan was going to wash the dishes.

Lu Ye quickly stopped her and said, “Gu Yan, is your hand better now?”

“It’s pretty much healed. It’s fine.”

“Don’t wash the dishes yet. Put on your coat, scarf, and hat. I’ll take you outside.”

Gu Yan thought about it. She could just wash them when they returned, so she didn’t insist anymore.

She nodded and went to dress accordingly.
