Chapter 75: Back

She wants to abandon me and sleep with the others in that cramped dorm? No way am I going to agree to it.

By the time they finally opened the door, the person who had been rapping on the door was no longer there. This made Mo Jiangye's originally dark face even darker and gloomier than before.

“I'll head back first.”

Unfortunately for her, there was no way he would allow that.

Go back?

What for?

Is there someone she wants to see or something she has to do out there?

Are those things more important than me? Are they?

No!

“Haven't I hugged you, babe?”

Ye Erruo knew what he was insinuating. I shouldn't have gloated that night… He's obviously taking revenge now. A brutal one, in fact.

“Did you miss me badly during the past month or so?”

I did…

To be honest, ever since the very day he had left, she had not managed to get a good night's sleep and would often be distracted during mealtimes. She had no idea when she'd started wis.h.i.+ng for him to be by her side at all times.

His presence before her was something she was really terrified of and something she had loathed and detested the most in the past, let alone sitting down, eating a good meal, or having a decent conversation with him.

She could not help feeling sorry for him as she recalled how their relations.h.i.+p had begun.

“Yes, I missed you.” Very much, in fact.

Mo Jiangye's gaze turned as soft as water when he heard that. “Have we gotten married, babe?”

“Yes, we have.”

They had registered their marriage the very next day of her reborn life. Their marriage certificate, aside from being something that could chain them together forever, was a gift that she treasured dearly in this life.

“So what should you be calling me now?”

Her brows furrowed. What should I be calling him now? Hubby?

“I wish to hear it.”

“…”

He only stopped after he heard her calling him ‘hubby' countless times.

Finally. He could finally see her and talk to her again.

He had missed her so much that he did not even know how he had managed to stand his longing for her in the past few days.

He had long grown accustomed to having this obedient little woman by his side, so he felt oddly uneasy when he had to be separated from her for even a minute.

Perhaps, she had truly and completely become an integral part of his life.

Outside, night had already fallen. The temperature in the woods was running relatively low, so he wrapped her tightly in his jacket to keep her warm.

It was not until half-past eight that they started making their way back. He was driving with one hand on the steering wheel, while his other arm was draped over the sleeping woman.

Back at the camp, a group of soldiers was gobsmacked by the sight of their chief returning with a woman in his arms. Even though he had wrapped her tightly in his jacket, her long tresses swayed and danced along with each of his movements.

A woman? Is our vision impaired, or is that a woman?

Boss actually brought a woman back? Unbelievable! This is absolutely unbelievable!

Who said that no one would want someone as cold and aloof as our boss?

Who said that our boss would forever be a bachelor?

And who said that our boss doesn't like women?

Most importantly, who said that our boss won't touch women?

“Boss.”

“Move aside. Everyone move side.” Mo Jiangye, who was in a good mood, hugged the woman tightly.

“Roger that!” The men standing guard outside the door disappeared quickly without a trace and excitedly gossiped about the man while leaving.

The moment they left, another group of people walked out of his room. “You're back, Young Master Mo… Eh? Who is this in your arms?”

“Young Master Mo…”

“Young Master Mo… Ehhh, this is… OMG!”
