Chapter 1269 - Mixing Too Much with Women (1/2)
Xu Zhenyu was jolted awake by the incessant sounds of the doorbell ringing. He pulled the blanket away from his body and opened his dry and sore eyes before struggling to get up from his bed. He then got out of bed and walked barefooted towards the door.
“Who’s making a ruckus bright early in the morning?” Xu Zhenyu hollered angrily before opening the door in annoyance. Clearly, he had a bad temper in the morning and it was a habit that he did not kick despite having joined the military.
“Why are you taking so long to open the door?” Gu Junling retorted with a cigarette in his mouth. He sauntered nonchalantly like a handsome gangster. Xu Zhenyu opened the door without hesitation.
Xu Zhenyu was standing by the door, still feeling sleepy.
Gu Junling walked towards the couch and opened the refrigerator. When he saw the empty shelves, he lamented. “Brother, your house has been broken into. There’s nothing at all. Do you have something that I can drink?”
Xu Zhenyu suddenly sobered up and questioned with a sullen expression, “How did you know that I’ve returned? How did you know that I live here?”
He returned at 2 AM last night after completing a mission. Hence, he was rather shocked to see Gu Junling bright early in the morning.
Gu Junling said, “Loony was the one who told me.”
Xu Zhenyu had just returned to Capital city and yet, he left shortly after the military training program ended without even meeting his friends. His friends obviously knew the reason.
Although they did not say much, they were all worried about Xu Zhenyu.
Hence, everyone had been paying attention to the news about Xu Zhenyu lately and Han Mofeng had also found out about Xu Zhenyu’s return from the Xu family. Now that Han Mofeng had already joined the military, he rarely had time to stay out either. Hence, he decided to visit Xu Zhenyu early in the morning.
He would be incumbent when it came to Xu Zhenyu.
Xu Zhenyu took a seat on the couch and rubbed his aching head. “In that case, you definitely know that I returned at two in the morning. Yet, you’re here so early. Are you even my buddy at all?”
The thick-skinned Gu Junling answered, “No… I was just afraid that you would leave without warning again had I been any later.”
Xu Zhenyu was stunned speechless, for he had indeed planned to take on another mission.
Gu Junling could tell from his expression that he had made the right guess. “Don’t you plan to tell Xinya about your return? Xinya is always worried whenever you’re out on missions and she always asks about you too. So… how could she not know that we wouldn’t know about your top-secret mission?”
Gu Junling rattled on and on while observing Xu Zhenyu’s expression, for fear that he would get upset because he had mentioned Wen Xinya’s name.
Xu Zhenyu was as obstinate as a bull and he would be terrifying whenever he lost his temper.
Xu Zhenyu got a major headache and got even more frustrated after hearing about Wen Xinya. “You must have been mixing with women too often lately. Why are you giving off such a girlish vibe? You’re so wishy-washy like a sissy. Cut straight to the chase. Don’t bother beating around the bush to sound me out.”
After being on a mission for twenty-odd days, Xu Zhenyu had already become much calmer and he exuded the remarkable qualities of a soldier.
