Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander-Chapter 508 - 349: In Pairs (Two-in-One Mega - )

After a few hours together, the unfamiliarity from being apart for half a year had vanished. At lunchtime, Zhou Hanliang and Yun Doudou didn’t go to the cafeteria but took out a small bag of sweet potatoes from the cupboard and sat in front of the stove to roast and chat.

At this moment, the two finally moved beyond the idle chatter that marked their initial meeting and started to share their heartfelt feelings. Once they expressed their longing, they moved on to the stage of carefully understanding the details.

"In this half-year we’ve been apart, have you been close to any other woman? Even having the thought counts, and I want the truth. If you dare lie, I’ll never forgive you for as long as I live!" Yun Doudou glared at Zhou Hanliang, interrogating him with a serious face.

"Just imagining things..." Zhou Hanliang replied, exasperated yet amused, "Only you don’t mind how old I appear; no other woman would care for me."

Upon hearing this, Yun Doudou became indignant, "Are you saying that what other women don’t want, I’m happy to treasure? What do you mean by that? Are you suggesting I have low standards or that I’m lacking in some way?"

"You..." Zhou Hanliang, at a loss for words, touched his head, "You’re creating issues out of nothing."

Yun Doudou’s neck stiffened, "Who’s creating issues out of nothing? I’m just asking you. It’s not like you’ve really done anything with someone else. Can’t you just answer me properly?"

Seeing that she was truly upset, Zhou Hanliang quickly conceded, "Okay, okay, it’s my fault. I’ll answer you seriously now, absolutely not! You know what kind of person I am. We agreed to be together again, and it doesn’t matter if it’s half a year or ten years, I would definitely wait."

Yun Doudou "hmphed" and said, "That friend of your sister’s, what’s her name, Li Yuxiang, as soon as she sees you, she practically glues her eyes to you. She looks at you with nothing but admiration in her eyes, who knows if you might’ve just gone with the flow while I was away."

"She and my sister have been friends since childhood; if it were that easy to go with the flow, would I have waited until now?" Zhou Hanliang sighed helplessly, "Doudou, you need to understand that the most fundamental basis for two people being together is trust."

"Haven’t you ever worried that I might change my mind?" Yun Doudou stared at him earnestly, "You know, my mom has always tried to set me up with Big Brother Mei. Have you really never been concerned?"

"Never." Zhou Hanliang shook his head without hesitation, "I trust that if you really didn’t want to be with me, you would definitely tell me. Until you do, I’m certain I’m the only one in your heart."

"Quite confident..." Yun Doudou cast him a coquettish glance and pointed at a sweet potato on the stove that had turned golden brown, "This one’s ready; I want to eat it."

Knowing he had passed the test, Zhou Hanliang breathed a sigh of relief and cheerfully used the hook to move the sweet potato to the side, gently knocking off the ash on its surface before placing it on the small tray next to him and handing it to her.

"Seeing you just breathe a sigh of relief, I’m getting uncertain again. Are you hiding something from me?" Yun Doudou, peeling the skin carefully, continued to interrogate Zhou Hanliang.

Zhou Hanliang’s face creased in frustration: "Doudou, this isn’t good for us."

"Then why did you just breathe a sigh of relief?"

Zhou Hanliang looked at her seriously: "Doudou, do you trust me?"

"Using this tactic to shut me up?" Yun Doudou rolled her eyes at him, "It’s not fun to play dirty like this. We haven’t seen each other for so long; I just wanted to know the details. I’m not doubting you.

Of course I know you wouldn’t find someone else. But I don’t like others harboring any feelings for you either. I’m well aware of your temperament; the overly nice guy who can’t say no.

If there’s someone like that, I’ll be the bad guy, I’ll block her out. Zhou Hanliang, you are my man, and you can only be mine for this lifetime, got it?"

"Got it."

"You are mine, and so is your life. I won’t interfere with your work, but remember, I’m waiting for you. If you don’t come back, I’ll wait for a lifetime."

"Got it." Emotion touched Zhou Hanliang’s expression.

"Enough, don’t make that face, I don’t like it. It’s only right for me to do all this for you, and likewise, it’s only right for you to meet my needs. In a family, there’s no room for being overly polite."

"Okay."

"Can’t you say a few more words?" Yun Doudou looked at him disbelievingly, "Weren’t you quite talkative before?"

Zhou Hanliang smiled sheepishly: "You’ve said everything I wanted to say; I have nothing left."

"Then tell me, why did you just breathe a sigh of relief?"

Zhou Hanliang: "..." How did it turn back to this?

Seeing him at a loss, Yun Doudou laughed heartily: "Silly, if you don’t want to say it, then don’t. I was just teasing you."
