Chapter 261 Leaving the Base for the Military Region
After a moment of stunned silence, Lu Fei breathed a sigh of relief. With the leopard asleep, she no longer had to force herself to coax this "postpartum depressed dad."
I gently climbed onto the bed, pulled the baby into my arms, and smelled her milky scent. My heart melted.
She was thinking that after Cao Huan gave birth, she would choose the one who looked most like her and raise her as her own daughter, so that she could have a painless motherhood. Just thinking about it made her happy.
She has to go to the military region tomorrow, so she needs to change her persona this time. She might as well become a cool, aloof, and charming military doctor.
In her past life, she wanted to join the army, but she failed the physical test. Now that she can experience military life, it's a good opportunity to make up for that regret.
Lu Fei let her imagination run wild and fell asleep soon after.
Hearing her even breathing, the leopard, which had been sleeping, gently opened its eyes.
His light amber eyes were filled with deep affection.
He gently moved his body, wrapped Lu Fei and the baby in his tail, and rubbed his nose against her face before falling asleep, inhaling her relaxing fragrance.
The next morning, when Lu Fei got up, she saw Cao Zhengyu, who had turned into a human form and was completely naked.
She had wrapped all the blankets around herself, and the baby was perfectly fine in her arms. The baby, who was originally separated from Cao Zhengyu by two people, was now pressed tightly against her.
Who could have imagined the shock of opening her eyes to see such round, full pectoral muscles? It almost made Lu Fei's nose bleed.
To avoid making Cao Zhengyu feel awkward when he woke up, Lu Fei quickly covered him with the blanket, and then quietly took the child and prepared to leave.
As soon as her hand touched the doorknob, she heard Cao Zhengyu's hoarse and languid voice.
"Honey, where are you taking the baby so early? I need to breastfeed soon."
Lu Fei turned her head to look at the sexy man who was sitting up wrapped in the blanket, but in her heart she was wailing.
"Why isn't it done yet? Why is he still mistaking me for his wife??"
"It's nothing. I'm going to the military region today. I need to wash up and pack my things. You should get up too."
Lu Fei finally came up with a plausible reason and quickly took the child and ran out, afraid that the child would change clothes in front of her.
Lately, I don't know what's wrong with her. When she's facing a leopard, she doesn't have the same calmness as before. She's anxious every day. She's only 22. Could it be that she's going through early menopause?
Lu Fei was thinking about getting herself some herbal remedies later, as this constant heart-pounding couldn't go on.
Upon hearing that he was going back to the military region, even though Cao Zhengyu was still not fully conscious, his soldierly instincts remained. Not two minutes after Lu Fei came out, he also came out dressed neatly.
Since we're going to the military region, we definitely can't bring the child with us.
After Cao Zhengyu cried for half an hour while holding the child, he was finally persuaded by Lu Fei to "entrust" the child to Rong Feifei's care.
"Waaah, baby, you have to be okay. Mommy and Daddy will be back in a couple of days."
Cao Zhengyu cried with snot and tears streaming down his face, while Lu Fei, standing beside him, covered her head, wishing she could disappear into the ground.
"Don't cry, okay? We'll be back in a couple of days. Besides, with so many people taking care of her, she'll definitely be doing well."
Lu Fei's words not only failed to comfort Cao Zhengyu, but also earned her a glare.
"Waaah, you heartless thing! The baby wasn't born from your belly, of course you're not worried. My baby, you must miss your daddy."
Cao Zhengyu staged such a poignant scene of separation between family and child at the entrance of the base, which was witnessed by everyone passing by.
Lu Fei "enjoyed" the gazes coming from all directions, feeling as if she had lost all face for the rest of her life.
She appeared calm and composed at the moment, but in reality, she had already carved out a spacious four-bedroom, two-living-room villa beneath her feet.
Later, not wanting to watch the leopard act foolishly, she looked at Chen Wanyue and instructed her that the Lu family should torture them every day, making them unable to live but also unable to die.
As for Yu Yefang, the reason she made such a fuss was simply because she had too much free time.
From now on, she'll do hard labor at the base, just like the Lu family. They'll torment her so much that even living will be difficult for her, and then she won't just torment others.
"Sister, please take care. I'll miss you."
Mo Yu originally wanted to go with them, but this trip to the military region required some military support, which he wasn't good at. He would just be cannon fodder if he went, so it was safer to stay at the base.
His eyes were red as he held Lu Fei's hand, like a little fox afraid of being abandoned.
"Okay, I'll be back soon. You take good care of yourself here too."
Lu Fei ruffled Mo Yu's hair. Although the base had a protective shield, it was hard to guarantee that there wouldn't be anyone with malicious intentions. With him around, at least there was some protection.
"Little sister, you must be careful."
Rong Qi carried a hoe in one hand and held little Rong Yongsi in the other, his eyes looking at Lu Fei with clear and pure eyes.
Coupled with that face that evokes outrage from both gods and men, it's truly impossible to look away.
"Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
Although Rong Feifei has returned, Rong Qi seems to still consider Lu Fei his younger sister, which warms her heart.
As the two were talking, upon hearing Rong Qi's voice, Cao Huai walked over with a smile and patted Rong Qi on the shoulder.
"Commander Rong, once the military region is restored, I'll take you back to visit. Everyone misses you."
Cao Huai's words caused Rong Qi's expression to turn painful. He covered his head, and large beads of sweat dripped down his face. It was clear that he had relapsed.
"Brother, relax, take a deep breath, everything's alright now, you're not Commander Rong anymore..."
Rong Feifei crouched down and hugged Rong Qi, comforting him softly. Her body emitted a faint white light, not dazzling, and very gentle.
After a short while, Rong Qi's expression calmed down, but he was still listless, so Rong Feifei simply helped him back to rest.
"Sigh, it's all my fault. I kept talking about the military region. These siblings have been through so much; it's already a miracle they're still alive."
"If we had been more careful back then, none of that would have happened."
Cao Huai felt somewhat guilty, and looked at their retreating figures with deep emotion.
Aside from those who had witnessed Rong Feifei's resurrection, Lu Fei had heard that Rong Feifei had previously been in a state of severe injury and unconsciousness.
Cao Huai naturally assumed that Rong Feifei was not dead, and he felt great pity for the brother and sister.
"Yes, it's good that they're alright. Being alive is the most important thing."
Lu Fei responded calmly. Over there, Cao Zhengyu finally finished crying while holding the baby. After handing the child over to Chen Wanyue, he resolutely got into his car.
Even so, he pressed his face against the car window and looked out, looking so reluctant to leave. Lu Fei was afraid that once the leopard returned to normal, it would want to kill her idiot self.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Gu Changge, Luo Feiyu, and Hu Dabao got into the car behind and left together.
Cao Zhengyu hugged Lu Fei's waist, buried his head in her arms, and cried bitterly.
"Waaaaah, my baby, my wife, I'm so heartbroken, please rub my chest."
Cao Zhengyu grabbed Lu Fei's hand and rubbed it against his chest muscles. She looked at the note in her palm, her eyes becoming deep and complicated. While everyone's attention was on the leopard, she opened her mouth and swallowed the note.
