Chapter 543: Stay With Us

The world was at peace, the nation stable, and the economy was on the path to prosperity. If he was merely asked to return to his military unit to receive medals of honor and higher ranks, to lead new talents, he didn’t necessarily have to go. These tasks were not exclusive to him, Su Shen. He was willing to give others the opportunity.

Perhaps it was the tacit understanding developed from their long-term companionship, but Gu Zi seemed to comprehend his decision from his gaze and tone. If the nation was in turmoil, invaded by foreign powers, then Su Shen would undoubtedly abandon his small family, forsake his love, and part ways with her.

He would unhesitatingly rush to the battlefield, fighting and killing the enemy.

But if the situation remained as stable as it was today, he would rather stay and protect his own small family, forsaking the glory and military rank that others coveted. He would live a simple life in his hometown, hand in hand with her, conducting business, living life, providing a better life for his wife and children.

At this moment, Gu Zi was moved. She felt that if she were a man, she would not be able to do what Su Shen did, to give up a better future and higher achievements for the sake of his family.

Gu Zi raised her hand to caress his face. Under the indoor light, his facial features appeared even more profound and three-dimensional. She decided to retract her previous words, gently saying, “Indeed, I can’t bear to return such a handsome husband to the nation. Su Shen, will you stay with us?”

Without hesitation, Su Shen nodded in agreement. “Alright. I won’t go to the pig farm tomorrow either. Jin Long will watch over it. I’ll accompany you. Dress up nicely. Someone will come to visit, claiming to reminisce about the past, but in reality, they are here to mediate. I think my wife should reject them in person.”

He had already made up his mind not to return. Seeing Gu Zi understand him now, he felt his decision to stay held even more significance.

Because if it were any other woman, she would undoubtedly urge him to return to the military. That would mean he would gain a higher status, greater power, and that would be an incomparable glory for his wife.

But Gu Zi was indeed different. She didn’t care about those things. She respected his wishes. When she knew he didn’t plan to return, she sincerely asked him to stay. How could this not move and fascinate him?

Gu Zi sat up from the bed, looking at him for a while. She seemed to understand that he had made his decision long ago. He hadn’t stated his decision earlier because he wanted to see her choice.

This husband of hers was indeed cunning. But would the military send someone tomorrow? She suddenly remembered something and asked warily, “Don’t tell me the person coming is the one who injured you before?”

Su Shen sat beside her, draping a coat over her. “I’ll get you a glass of water.”

After saying this, he got off the bed, went out to pour a glass of water, and brought it back to her. Gu Zi didn’t refuse, she was indeed a bit thirsty, and took a sip.

As she handed the glass back to him, she met his eyes and heard him say calmly, “It wasn’t exactly an injury, just a bit of sparring. He didn’t fare well.” He had to recuperate for a while before coming back to mediate.

Gu Zi looked at him, her tone serious, asking, “So that’s it, then? Do you often spar like this?”

She didn’t care whether the other party fared well or not. Bullying her man was unacceptable. Even in martial sparring, there should be a limit. Last time, Su Shen was injured!

Su Shen replied, “Yes, if we don’t spar seriously, there’s no real feeling.” It wouldn’t be interesting otherwise.

But seeing her increasingly serious expression, he didn’t say the rest.

Obviously, if he didn’t say it, he would be considered bullied. If he did say it, with Gu Zi’s intelligence, she would immediately understand that the one who was actually bullied was the person who sparred with him.

To avoid Gu Zi getting angry at him, let someone else carry this burden for now! Su Shen didn’t say anything more. Gu Zi settled down to sleep, saying, “Let’s sleep then, we’ll talk about it tomorrow when we see them.”

Su Shen also lay down, and after a while, he silently turned and embraced her, then fell asleep. They had a good night’s sleep. The next day, Gu Zi got up as usual around seven, washed up, and put on light makeup.

The weather was gradually getting colder, especially in the mornings. The damp cold was bone-chilling. She hadn’t had time to change her clothes, and while putting on makeup, she sneezed several times. If this continued, she would catch a cold.
