Chapter 292: Looking for a Hard Time Here?_1
Shen Tianxing lost herself in thought and became absent-minded.
Grandma Dugu saw Shen Tianxing’s soul-lost expression and teased her with a laugh, "Xiaoxing, are you thinking about Zixi?"
Shen Tianxing’s face turned red, but she honestly nodded, "Yes, Grandma, I miss him and I’m worried about him. Why hasn’t he come back from his mission yet? There’s been no news at all; it’s so worrying."
Grandma Dugu patted her hand, her face filled with emotion, "Being a military spouse is never easy! Back in the day, when your grandfather went to the battlefield, I couldn’t accompany him, and my heart was always in my throat. At night, I worried so much I couldn’t sleep. Grandma really understands how you feel right now."
Shen Tianxing glanced at old Mr. Dugu and noticed that when he heard his spouse talk like that, the look in his eyes toward her was also filled with tender loving care.
Shen Tianxing actually felt a bit envious of the old couple’s affection; these two really have been in love for a whole lifetime!
Li Xiuxia also smiled and comforted Shen Tianxing, saying, "Xiaoxing, Zixi is so capable, there aren’t many who can deal with him nowadays. You don’t have to worry too much, he’s just a few days late in coming back."
Shen Tianxing, seeing the caring gaze of the old lady and her mother, and even the old man and her father occasionally looking at her with concern as they played chess, felt warmth in her heart.
She laughed lightly and said, "I’m okay, you all don’t have to worry. It’s just that I miss Zixi."
Grandma Dugu laughed heartily, "Xiaoxing, do you believe that Zixi is definitely thinking of you right now?"
