For two consecutive weeks, Li Ci picked up and dropped off Lin Zhixia on time every day, and his own injury was almost healed.
After getting off work this Friday, Li Ci picked up Lin Zhixia and just arrived downstairs in the community when he saw a jeep with military plates parked on the roadside.
Maybe he saw Li Ci and Lin Zhixia coming back. Several young men wearing camouflage training uniforms got out of the jeep, and Yao Wenyu among them was the first to speak: "Old Li, you are back. The brothers have been waiting for you for a long time."
Lin Zhixia looked at the several grown men in front of her at a loss. Among them, she had only seen Xiao Feng, who sent Li Ci back last time. He didn't recognize the rest. She was considering whether to say hello, and Li Ci came to them. He came closer and said, "Why are you here?"
Yao Wenyu ignored Li Ci, looked at Lin Zhixia behind him and asked, "Is this sister-in-law?"
Lin Zhixia did not speak, but smiled and nodded slightly at the people who looked at her.
Suddenly, several of them shouted in a loud voice in unison, "Hello, sister-in-law!"
Lin Zhixia blushed for a moment, and said with some embarrassment: "Hello, you guys."
They were used to being careless in the army. Li Ci noticed Lin Zhixia's uneasy behavior and said to them, "Okay, let's go up first."
On the sofa in the living room, a few of them were sitting and chatting. Perhaps it was because they were born with loud voices as soldiers, and the whole room was filled with their voices. However, Li Ci only made an occasional "hmm" in their loud conversation.
Only now did Lin Zhixia realize that except for one who was similar in age to Li Ci, the rest were almost in their early twenties. She nodded and smiled at them slightly, turned around and walked into the kitchen. Although her cooking skills were not good, she could not Make people hungry.
When she entered the kitchen, the people in the living room immediately seemed to explode. The voices were obviously louder than before, and they started talking in all directions.
"You're good, how could you find such a beautiful wife?" Yao Wenyu said to Li Ci, who had a serious look on his face.
Xiao Feng also immediately came up to answer: "Captain, my sister-in-law is really beautiful!" As soon as he finished speaking, he received a slap on the back of the head.
"You don't have to ask, can the captain look for someone who is beautiful?" Sun Hao, who was sitting on the other side, looked at Li Ci and said.
Li Ci listened to their conversation indifferently and did not say anything. He just glanced at Lin Zhixia who was busy in the kitchen. He was still worried about her and was afraid of cutting her hand again like that day.
He raised his hand and stubbed out the remaining half of the cigarette in his hand, and said to them, "There are poker cards in the drawer. You guys can play for a while. I'll go see if there's anyone who can help."
"Captain Li has such a good relationship with his wife, why can't he be separated for such a short time?" Yao Wenyu looked at each other and said teasingly.
Li Ci ignored their teasing, stood up and walked into the kitchen. Looking at Lin Zhixia who was busy in the kitchen, he asked with a tenderness in his eyes that he had not even noticed: "How are the preparations going?"
When Lin Zhixia heard the voice, she turned around and glanced at Li Ci, who was standing behind him, and said with some embarrassment: "Well, actually it's still a lot worse."
Looking at the vegetables, fish, and meat arranged messily on the kitchen countertop and chopping board... Li Ci rolled up his sleeves and said to Lin Zhixia, who had his head lowered, "I'll do it!"
Lin Zhixia ended up serving as Li Ci's assistant. He cooked the dishes very quickly. When she took the dishes out, the living room was filled with a thick smell of smoke, mixed with the laughter of men playing cards.
Seeing Lin Zhixia serving the dishes, Xiao Feng took the initiative to come over to help her. He went into the kitchen to serve the dishes and distributed bowls and chopsticks. He kept saying, "Sister-in-law, you are so amazing. You have cooked so many dishes."
Lin Zhixia blushed with embarrassment. She was about to explain that this dish was made by your captain, but Li Ci, who came out with the last dish, shouted to the people still sitting in the living room: "Come here for dinner."
The dinner table was very quiet, which was very different from the loud chatting in the living room just now. Lin Zhixia thought that these men would exchange glasses and talk among themselves.
After eating, Lin Zhixia took the initiative to wash the dishes, while they sat in the living room and continued chatting.
Because there were so many people eating tonight, Lin Zhixia spent a long time tidying up and cleaning the kitchen.
They waited for her to come out of the kitchen, then stood up to say goodbye.
"Sit down for a while and let's go," Lin Zhixia said, glancing at Li Ci who was still sitting on the sofa, and there were several empty wine bottles on the coffee table that they had just finished drinking.
"Sister-in-law, please excuse me tonight, we will go back first," Yao Wenyu said as he took off his coat.
Li Ci suddenly stood up and said to them, "I'll take you down."
"No, no, you drank a lot today. You should go to bed early later," Yao Wenyu refused.
Li Ci was no longer polite, and just said to Xiao Feng, who was the only one who had not drank: "Be careful when driving on the road."
Probably because he was a little uncomfortable after drinking too much wine, Li Ci sat back on the sofa and squinted his eyes after they left.
Lin Zhixia glanced at the empty wine bottle on the coffee table and thought of an unopened bottle of honey in the refrigerator, so she took the initiative to make a cup of honey water and brought it to the living room.
As she approached, she saw him half leaning on the sofa, his eyes closed, his right hand on his forehead, and his chest rising and falling gently, as if he was very drunk.
Putting the water cup she was holding on the coffee table, Lin Zhixia slowly squatted down and called softly: "Li Ci?"
Li Ci slowly opened his eyes, with a hint of confusion in his eyes, and rubbed his forehead vigorously with his hand, "What's wrong?"
Lin Zhixia pointed to the cup on the coffee table and said, "I made you a cup of honey water, drink it."
After Lin Zhixia finished speaking, she turned around and planned to go to the bedroom to take a shower first. Although she only took a shower today, she also had a heavy smell of oily smoke, which made her feel particularly uncomfortable.
Suddenly her right wrist was grabbed tightly, and she looked back in shock. The man was still sitting on the sofa with his eyes half open.
Li Ci slowly tightened his fingers and wrapped Lin Zhixia's slender fingers into his dry and warm palm.
Lin Zhixia's mind went blank for a moment. The harder she pressed, the tighter his grip became. Her face turned red to the root of her neck. There were too many things in his deep eyes that she couldn't understand, and she became frightened for a moment.
When she finally reacted, Li Ci's lips had already kissed hers, kissing her lips gently. She forgot to react for a moment, and just stared at the face that was magnified several times in front of her with her eyes wide open. .
His eyes were closed, and his eyelashes were so long that they could even lightly scratch the skin on her face.
Li Ci raised his hand to cover Lin Zhixia's back, and coaxed softly with a hint of hoarseness in his voice: "Hey, don't move, close your eyes."
"No...I want...Uh-huh," Lin Zhixia was about to open her mouth to refuse, but she didn't expect to give Li Ci a chance. He took the opportunity to conquer the city and inserted his tongue into Lin Zhixia's mouth. Her lips were soft, with a trace of He was a little confused by the sweetness of the silk, and he plundered everything from her without politeness.
