After Marrying the Officer-Chapter 198: Do You Have Any Sisters?

Xia Chuyi felt even more embarrassed by the enthusiasm of the young police guard.

Huo Shiqian’s glare was sharp as it flew towards his subordinate.

"Commander, take care, little sister-in-law, take care!" The two police guards became serious in a second and shouted.

Xia Chuyi braced herself as she followed Huo Shiqian into the car.

Upon arriving at "Youwei," Xia Chengzong, who was cleaning up the scattered items on the floor, froze completely when he saw his cousin tightly holding hands with Huo Commander as they got out of the car.

His jaw dropped and took a long while to close. After a long moment, he managed to greet them stiffly: "You’re back?"

Then he buried his head and hurried back to his work.

Huo Shiqian looked up, catching sight of the door smashed askew, unable to close, and the mess of broken tables, chairs, pots, and bowls, his brows deeply furrowed.

"Just take me here, go find Chang Luhui," Xia Chuyi said, shaking his hand.

Huo Shiqian’s lips were pursed, silent, his aura even heavier than the cold air at the moment.

"I’m leaving Taoyi and Lizi here to help you," Huo Shiqian said with a frown, leaving no room for refusal.

"Taoyi and Lizi?" Xia Chuyi did not immediately catch on.

"Da da da," accompanied by a rhythmical sound of running, two police guards, the soldiers, appeared at the entrance of "Youwei."

"Reporting to the Commander! We’ve reached the destination!" They saluted, faces serious.

"Mhm, good," Huo Shiqian nodded, "You two stay and help out."

Slapping her forehead, Xia Chuyi thought: So the two fruits refer to the young police guards?

"Yes!" both soldiers shouted, eyes sparkling.

Huo Shiqian glanced at them indifferently.

"Don’t cause any trouble, just listen to your sister-in-law," he said as if it was the most natural thing.

Xia Chuyi: ...

Xia Chengzong: ...

The two fruits: "Yes!!!"

After Huo Shiqian left, the two soldier-fruits threw themselves into their chores with great enthusiasm and diligence.

"Hello, comrade, what is your relationship with our sister-in-law?" Lizi began to probe Xia Chengzong.

What relationship... uh, does bullying her, the son of the big bad man in the primary room, count?

"...I’m her older cousin," Xia Chengzong replied.

"So you’re the big brother-in-law!"

Lizi and Taoyi exchanged a glance and began chatting with him enthusiastically, which caught Xia Chengzong completely off guard.

Seeing that they were quite adaptable, Xia Chuyi called out twice and went to the kitchen to cook.

An hour later, as daylight broke and the outside shop was almost tidy, Xia Chuyi brought out the food and called everyone to eat.

Taoyi and Lizi were not initially hungry, but upon seeing the delicious meal, they couldn’t resist.

They devoured the food voraciously, leaving Xia Chuyi astonished.

Is life in the army this tough?

She shook her head, put down her chopsticks, "I’m going to check on the Medicinal Food, it should be ready."

After each person had a bowl of Medicinal Food, the two guards were nearly moved to tears.

"Sister-in-law, your cooking is really too good!" they praised one after another.

Xia Chuyi couldn’t help but laugh and cry: "I’m going to put some soup in a jar, you two take it to Huo Shiqian."

"Okay!" the guards replied.

As soon as Xia Chuyi stepped into the kitchen, the guards, one on either side, looked at Xia Chengzong with shining eyes and said, "Big brother-in-law, do you have any sisters or sisters-in-law? Introduce them to us!"

Xia Chengzong: ...

He had only one sister, Xia Mei.

And the only sister of a suitable age was Xia Lan.

He hastily fobbed them off in a few words, really not wanting Huo Commander’s men to know about the mess in his home.

Having brushed the men off, he couldn’t help but frown with concern: With Huo Commander’s qualifications, could Chuyi really be a match for him?

Plus the mess at home.

Suddenly, he felt a profound sense of pity for Chuyi.
