Chapter 169 - See How I Take Care of You


    Nan Xiao approached from a distance, heading towards Hee Jingyan, his gaze shifting to Xu Yangyi with envy evident.


    Xu Yangyi cast azy nce, emitting a slight snort of boredom, perhaps deeming Nan Xiao pitiable.


    Yet, Nan Xiao perceived Xu Yangyi''s nce as disdain, his eyes filling with anger. However, restrained by Xu Yangyi''s higher status, he suppressed his ire, addressing, “Greetings, sister-inw.”


    Xu Yangyi walked past without response. As Nan Xiao''s fists clenched in anger, hezily echoed, “Hmm,” scanning the soldiers in training.


    Xu Yangyi''s demeanor fueled Nan Xiao''s ire further, yet mindful of Hee Jingyan''s presence, he maintainedposure, reporting, “Colonel, the second lieutenant requests your presence.”


    “Acknowledged,” Hee Jingyan replied nonchntly, ignoring Nan Xiao as he followed Xu Yangyi. “Wife, I have a meeting. Someone will escort you to Ji Guangming''s quarterster.”


    Xu Yangyi almost rolled his eyes at Hee Jingyan''sment, retorting, “I''m not a child; I can manage on my own.”


    Moreover, in this military domain, who dared challenge him?


    Hee Jingyan''s words surprised Xu Yangyi, reflecting on the attack on Hee Jingyan shortly after their marriage, and now Loong Shen''s troubles on home turf.


    “I''ll arrange for you to be escorted to Ji Guangming''s training field. After his disciplinary measures, you''re free to go anywhere,” Hee Jingyan advised, patting Xu Yangyi''s head.


    Sensing Hee Jingyan''s underlying concern, Xu Yangyiplied, “Understood.”


    Hee Jingyan emphasized Ji Guangming''s authority over Xu Yangyi, firmnesscing his words, a boundary Xu Yangyi mustn''t breach.


    Usually, Xu Yangyi would jest, but Hee Jingyan''s specific warning hinted at deeper concerns. Though Xu Yangyi retorted impatiently, “You''re overly cautious. I''m not a toddler.”


    Despite Xu Yangyi''s retort, Hee Jingyan sensedpliance, smiling as he affectionately kissed Xu Yangyi''s head.


    This indicated Nan Xiao''s duty to escort Xu Yangyi. Nan Xiao hesitated, “But Colonel, what about your meeting?”


    “It''s a brief meeting with the second lieutenant; you needn''t apany me.” Without awaiting Nan Xiao''s response, Hee Jingyan tousled Xu Yangyi''s hair, promising, “Later, we''ll savor some delicacies.” With that, he released Xu Yangyi and hastened towards the office, sensing urgency.


    Meanwhile, Xu Yangyi cursed inwardly, grumbling, “[I''ll just leave and go elsewhere! You''ve messed up my hair.]”


    Yet his demeanor didn''t suggest anger; rather, it hinted at bashfulness.


    Nan Xiao''s mood soured with Loong Shen''s sudden return, disrupting his ns. He intended to exploit the meeting to glean information from Loong Shen''s prison experience, but Xu Yangyi''s presence thwarted his efforts.


    With Hee Jingyan absent, Nan Xiao''s gaze bore murderous intent towards Xu Yangyi, harboring vengeful thoughts.


    A failed scheme! Watch how I''ll handle youter, arrogant brat.
