After Marrying the Officer-Chapter 197: The Treasure Manual Secrets

The two held hands naturally, their fingers intertwined intimately as they walked towards the hospital’s main exit.

Upon reaching the entrance, two guards who had been standing ramrod straight suddenly sprang forth, giving an earth-shatteringly respectful salute, and exclaimed, "Good morning, Commander!"

Fortunately, it was not yet fully light, and in consideration of not disturbing the peace, their voices were not particularly loud.

"Hmm," Huo Shiqian responded, his face expressionless, cool and composed.

However, the guards detected a hint of pride in their commander’s simple "Hmm."

When had anyone been here???!!!

Xia Chuyi’s face portrayed terror.

How had she not noticed them at all just now?

"Good morning, little sister-in-law!" Both guards saluted her individually, their eyes blazing with the intensity of a hundred thousand volts as they stared at her.

Xia Chuyi: ...

That gaze, just now... they definitely saw.

Remembering the events from moments ago, even though she was an "Old Monster" who had been reborn, her cheeks couldn’t help but flush red with heat.

She glared reproachfully at Huo Shiqian by her side: As a military man purportedly of high military quality, she refused to believe he hadn’t noticed there were people outside...

Wrong, there was no need to notice, these men were his own arrangement, both were her subordinates!

But him... never mind, it was possible that, bewitched by her, he forgot about the people at the entrance.

Xia Chuyi inwardly excused him.

"Ahem, good morning," Xia Chuyi struggled to sound natural as she spoke.

Upon hearing her, the eyes of the junior guards shone even brighter.

Was little sister-in-law acknowledging the Commander’s status?

Xia Chuyi was extremely embarrassed, dragging Huo Shiqian’s hand as she ducked her head and charged towards the outdoors: "Let’s go."

Even in her embarrassment, she did not let go of his hand. She had promised not to let go.

The junior guards followed with an inward howl of excitement.

The secret manual of wife-chasing, a treasure!

At the hospital entrance, a black sedan was parked. As soon as the driver saw Huo Shiqian, he opened the door and greeted him.

"Commander Huo, this car is from Ling County; please make do with it."

"Hmm," Huo Shiqian nodded indifferently, saying, "I’ll make sure to compensate you for the fare later."

The driver hastily waved his hands, "Commander Huo, there’s no need for that..."

His words disappeared in the sharpness of Huo Shiqian’s gaze.

"Understood, Commander Huo."

Xia Chuyi looked at Huo Shiqian with confusion.

He hadn’t come in his own military vehicle?

Suddenly, she recalled the sound of a plane from the day before.

Could it be that he came by plane?

Thinking about it, traveling by car couldn’t have been that fast.

From yesterday to now, everything Huo Shiqian had said and done pointed to one fact: he came to Ling County for her.

As for coincidences, how could there be so many?

A warm current surged in her heart.

She didn’t know how this man had managed to find the time to come to Ling County amidst his busy military duties.

Thank you, Huo Shiqian.

She silently said in her heart.

Then she shifted her gaze,

Looking at the car, looking at the two soldier guards.

Her expression was a mixture of conflict and difficulty.

Four people, one car, how would they fit?

As if seeing through her confusion, Huo Shiqian glanced at his accompanying guards and said, "Run to the destination—’Youwei.’

Xia Chuyi: ...

Well, okay, the road wasn’t that far to begin with.

"Thank you for your hard work!" she comforted the two junior guards.

"Thank you for your concern, little sister-in-law, we’re not tired at all!" The guards nearly beamed with joy.

Look at that, the little sister-in-law is so kind, gentle, lovely, and caring!

And their Commander, ever since he got a little sister-in-law, his demeanor has improved a lot, no longer so icy cold!
