After Jiang Xu had finished watching, he asked, "Will there be a next time?"

Fei quickly shook his head: "No."

Jiang Xu rolled over, finally getting the satisfaction he wanted.

However, Fei got too carried away in the second half and forgot there was another insect in the house.

Second bedroom.

Wenxi suddenly hated her exceptional hearing, which was unique to female insects.

Even though the atmosphere next door was oppressive, he still overheard things he shouldn't have heard.

His gaze turned cold without him noticing that damned male insect.

It was definitely intentional, especially since the noise behind him was getting louder and louder, so even if he wanted to ignore it, he couldn't.

The male insect was asserting its dominance over him.

Wenxi didn't know how much time had passed, only that there used to be some sounds from the outside world, but now they had completely disappeared.

The entire street had fallen asleep, including the streetlights, which were completely turned off, and the noise from next door gradually subsided.

The next day, Fei was somewhat surprised when he saw Wenxi downstairs.

Upon noticing the dark circles under the other person's eyes, she was even more surprised: "Didn't you sleep well?"

Wenxi glanced at Fei and gave a slightly reproachful "hmm".

Fei pondered for a moment, then comforted him, "The Western battlefield is over. It's good that you're alive. There's always a way to deal with what comes next."

Remember, I'll be behind you.

Wenxi looked down at Fei's hand, his knuckles red, and remained silent.

Although he vividly remembered the events of the Western Front, he was still haunted by them.

He also knew that some things, once they've happened, are gone and can't be undone.

But what kept him awake wasn't the western battlefield at all!

Seeing that he didn't speak, Fei thought that it had stirred up his memories again, and said in a deep voice, "You stay here today, I'm going to the military headquarters."

Now that Wenxi is back, he should report it.

"Hmm," Wen west replied weakly. Seeing Fei about to leave, he suddenly asked, "Brother Fei, aren't you going to rest a little longer?"

"?" Fei looked at him, puzzled. "No need."

The tasks during this period were not as intense as a day on the battlefield, and had no impact on him, who frequently went in and out of battle.

Wenxi remained silent, watching Fei leave.

Jiang Xu got up early, which was unusual for him. After finishing his work at the company, he went straight to the Jiang family home.

"Young Master." The butler rushed to greet Jiang Xu, but surprisingly didn't look at Bie Fei behind him. "Did you come back alone today?"

"Hmm, are the female grandfather and male father up yet?" Jiang Xu went straight up the steps and walked into the villa.

"Both gentlemen have been away for the past two days, only the head of the family is here. He is currently in the study." The butler followed him in.

"Okay, I understand." Jiang Xu waved to the butler, who quickly left upon receiving the order.

Jiang Xu walked to the study door and knocked twice.

"Come in," Zoran's tired voice came from inside.

Jiang Xu was startled. He opened the door and went inside. Zoran's exhausted expression appeared before him.

He glanced at the equipment in the corner of his eye. It was sitting there quietly. He recognized some of the parts; they were the same batch that Lin An had shown him when he went to the liaison center.

It seems that a recent batch of parts has been completely replaced and installed on it.

Jiang Xu walked to the desk and bowed to Zoran, who was sitting behind it: "Grandfather."

"What brings you here?" Zoran looked behind him. "Did you come by yourself?"

Jiang Xu knew who Zoran was talking about, recalling that the female insect was still fast asleep when he left: "Hmm."

"He's pregnant?" Zoran propped his head up and rubbed his temples. "Why didn't he tell his family about something this big?"

He wouldn't have known about this if he hadn't learned from military sources that Xiao Fei had been resting at home during her pregnancy.

"Now you know, don't you?" Jiang Xu touched the tip of his nose. In his mind, this was a matter between the two of them, and it didn't matter whether he said it or not.

Moreover, some of them were wronged.

He only found out about the pregnancy after he returned, and then he went to the western battlefield.

When people get busy, who remembers these things?

"Now that you're together, you should treat him well. He can't live without you during this special time."

In just a few words, Jiang Xu noticed that the other person had rubbed his temples several times: "Grandfather, you should rest more."

If your grandfather came back and saw you in this state, he would be heartbroken.

Zoran glanced at him and sighed deeply: "I just want to get these things done as soon as possible."

During this period, he had been sleeping poorly, or rather, he suffered from prolonged insomnia.

It wasn't that he didn't want to sleep, it's just that there were things to do, and he was thinking that Jiang Mian might come back after he finished these things.

How could he possibly still be sleeping?

Being able to live here quietly is already the result of his best efforts to control the situation.

Jiang Xu looked at the dark circles under his eyes. It had been about half a month since he came back.

Has the other party been in this state all along?

He glanced at the bracelet on his wrist; it seemed much more translucent than the one he had noticed there.

"Take care of yourself. Uncle Lin told me that the last part will be delivered soon." Jiang Xu was a little worried about the insect's body. Could it really withstand the strain?

"Yeah, I know." Zoran, looking exhausted, rubbed his temples again.

Jiang Xu frowned, opened the study door, and called out. Soon the butler arrived at the door.

"Young Master, what can I do for you?" the butler asked Jiang Xu, bowing with his arms crossed.

"Do you have any medication at home that can force you to fall asleep?"

The housekeeper looked at him with confusion, not understanding why the other party was asking this question. Fortunately, the house had a variety of medicines on hand, just in case.

So he answered affirmatively, "Yes."

After saying that, he left, but soon came back with his medicine box.

Jiang Xu took it, opened it directly, and asked the butler, "Which one is it?"

"This one," the butler said, pointing to one of the boxes of medicine.

"Um."

Jiang Xu carried the medicine box back into the study. He placed the box on the desk, took out the sleeping pills, glanced at the instructions, and handed two pills to Zoran.

"Now, you need to rest well."

Zoran looked at Jiang Xu, his gaze darkening. His appearance was exactly the same as Jiang Mian's.

Seeing that he didn't move, Jiang Xu picked up the porcelain pot on the table, poured himself a glass of water, and walked behind the table: "Eat, and then go upstairs to rest."

These matters concerning the Jiang family don't necessarily have to be completed right now, do they?

And then there's us too. You've been working tirelessly on these matters, making things very difficult for us younger generations."

Zoran looked at the two pills lying in his palm, his expression somewhat complicated.

Jiang Mian did the same thing when he was in office.

She slowly raised her hand, took the medicine from Jiang Xu's hand, and put it into her mouth.

"Here you go." After seeing him put the medicine in his mouth, Jiang Xu handed him the water in his hand.

After seeing Zoran swallow, he took the cup from Zoran's hand and placed it on the table: "Go upstairs and rest for a while. Don't worry, I can handle these things for a while."

"You can take a look and see if there's anything wrong, then we can adjust it, okay?"
