Second Marriage with the Alliance Marshal

just too late, so he asked if I needed a ride.”

“That’s good.” Gu Nai said with a smile.
“Team Leader Xu’s married life is really enviable.”

Xu Xinghe was slightly taken aback.
Although he admitted that he had a great time eating the hot pot tonight and chatted a lot with Gu Nai, after all, the two of them only met yesterday.
Talking about his married life so soon made him feel strange.

What’s more, what envy over his married life?? It’s common for Ling Changfeng to not go home for two or three days.

Xu Xinghe complained in his heart like this, but he opened his mouth and said: “Uh… I guess I won the prize.”

“Then let’s make an appointment next time.”

“Next time.”

Xu Xinghe settled the bill and walked out of the hot pot restaurant with Gu Nai.

“Go back first, I’ll wait for my ride.” Xu Xinghe said.

Gu Nai nodded and waved at him: “See you next time.”

The back quickly disappeared into the night.

Xu Xinghe waited for about four or five minutes when a low-key pure black car came slowly and stopped at the door of the hot pot restaurant.

Without a military license plate, it looks like an ordinary black commercial vehicle.

However, Xu Xinghe recognized at a glance that it was the vehicle of the Marshal’s mansion, so he opened the rear door to get in the car.

As a result, the hand just touched the door handle, and the door opened from the inside.

Xu Xinghe was stunned.

“…Didn’t you say send someone to pick me up?”

Xu Xinghe looked at Marshal Ling who suddenly appeared in the back seat, a little surprised.

Why did he come?

Ling Changfeng turned his head to look at him: “You come up first.”

“Oh.” Xu Xinghe knew that it was not safe to open the door like this, so he quickly got into the car, closed the door, and waited for Ling Changfeng’s reply after he was seated.

“I’m out for a ride.”

Xu Xinghe: “?”

“Why did you use this far? No one is following?” Xu Xinghe asked.

In his impression, whenever Ling Changfeng is out, no matter how flamboyant it is, a marshal’s safety must be guaranteed.

Ling Changfeng replied, “Someone is following, but you can’t see it.”

Xu Xinghe: “…Oh.”

Ling Changfeng asked him, “How was your meal tonight?”

“Not bad.
What about you?”

Ling Changfeng: “Nutrients.”

Xu Xinghe: “…” His question was superfluous.

After a few seconds of silence, Ling Changfeng suddenly said: “You seem to like hot pot.”

Xu Xinghe nodded: “Yes, hot pot is one of my favorite foods.”

Ling Changfeng: “You said earlier you have no hobbies.”

Xu Xinghe: “?”

He really couldn’t keep up with Ling Changfeng’s thinking.
“Is hotpot also a hobby?”

Well, if you have to say it, it is also a “hobby”.

“Anyway, I really like it.
Not to mention that hot pot is delicious, it also has a good atmosphere.
It can bring you both physical and mental happiness.” Xu Xinghe interest roused at the mention of his favorite food, and he happily described the experience.
“Especially eating hot pot with friends.
A few people getting together to chat and drink… uh, tea, is very satisfying.”

Ling Changfeng looked at his high-spirited appearance, and suddenly said: “Then next time, let’s eat it together.”

Xu Xinghe: “Okay, can you eat spicy food?”

Ling Changfeng: “Yes.”

Xu Xinghe: “Then you’re lucky.
My colleague had a bad stomach and couldn’t eat spicy food.
He ate plain soup today, but spicy hot pot tastes better.
I let him nourish his stomach, and next time I will take him to experience the deliciousness of a spicy pot.”

At his words, Ling Changfeng’s mismatched pupils slowly slanted over: “Next time?”

Xu Xinghe shrugged: “That said, his stomach is not good, so who knows when the next time will be.”

Ling Changfeng’s thin lips pursed slightly: “Why is there another time?”

Xu Xinghe was taken aback for a moment.
“Huh? It’s normal to have hot pot appointments between colleagues.”

Ling Changfeng asked, “You used to have dinner appointments with your colleagues?”

Xu Xinghe thought for a while: “It’s not very often, but once or twice a month.
Adding the appointments with my classmates,  basically one meal a week.”

Ling Changfeng: “…”

Xu Xinghe: “Why are you looking at me?”

For a moment, Marshal Ling wanted to ask why he never received such an invitation.

However, the words passed around his mouth for a while, and finally turned into a light-toned exhortation: “Eating too much hotpot is not good for the stomach.”

Xu Xinghe: “?”

He found that Ling Changfeng can be quite fickle sometimes.

“Then let’s make a hotpot appointment later?” Xu Xinghe was a little confused about what Ling Changfeng meant.

Ling Changfeng: “En.”

Xu Xinghe: “…”

The black car sped through at high speed on the sky rail, passing through the bustling city center.

Xu Xinghe looked at the scenery outside the window for a while, and suddenly remembered another thing: “By the way, how many people will attend the class reunion you mentioned earlier?”

Ling Changfeng replied: “Tentatively five with plus ones, so there are nine people in total.”

“Huh? Who isn’t bringing anyone?”

“Qin Yuan.”

“Huh?”

“He is currently single.”

“Ah??” Xu Xinghe was stunned.
“Major Qin is single?”

Ling Changfeng glanced at him sideways: “What’s wrong?”

Xu Xinghe felt a little incredible: “How can he be single?”

Ling Changfeng asked back: “Why not?”

“Because he is very careful and knows how to take care of people, is humorous and talkative, but also has a lot of flowery rhetoric… Doesn’t he call himself an omega’s friend? He should be very liked by omegas, right?” Xu Xinghe asked.

Ling Changfeng: “…”

He pursed his lips and said indifferently: “He’s too flowery.”

Xu Xinghe: “?”

“He’s had many girlfriends.”

“…”

“The news revealed more than five.”

“…”

“Do all omegas like this?” Ling Changfeng frowned slightly, “Delicate mind, humorous and talkative, and flowery rhetoric?”

“Not all of them, but this kind of character is quite good to fall in love with.
It has nothing to do with ABO attributes.” Xu Xinghe commented.
“You’ll get a good sense of being cared for when dating Qin Yuan.”

Marshal Ling felt that the air in the car was a little stuffy.

He lowered his eyes, his eyes dimmed slightly.

After a few seconds, he heard Xu Xinghe add: “But the marriage experience may not be so good.
After all, when one has too much dating experience, it will make their spouse feel uneasy, right?”

“En.” Ling Changfeng looked up.

Staring at his little spouse for two seconds, he replied lightly, “That’s right.”

“Speaking of which—” Xu Xinghe suddenly realized something, and asked him in a low voice, “Discussing Major General Qin’s emotional experience behind the scenes isn’t too good, right?”

Ling Changfeng: “It’s fine, we can talk face-to-face on the weekend.”

Xu Xinghe: “…”

“There will be a group of people who will talk with you.”

“…”

Xu Xinghe’s face was a little strange.
“What do you guys usually talk about at gatherings?”

Ling Changfeng paused slightly, as if he didn’t want to continue the topic, so he simply replied, “You’ll know when you go.”

“Come, you try this too!”

Xu Xinghe saw that Gu Nai moved his chopsticks infrequently, and only put a few dishes into the mushroom soup pot.
