A Fascinating Marriage with the Colonel

Grandpa Ling had returned to Lincheng.

Qin Shu could no longer be excused. She had to went to the Military General Hospital with Ling Mohan.

After getting off the car, Ling Mohan held Qin Shu’s hand tightly, leaving her with no chance to escape. Qin Shu felt pain.

Ling Mohan didn’t let go of her hand until they entered the living room. He felt his palm empty when her soft and delicate hand was gone.

He felt a little regretful and rubbed his fingers.

Grandpa Ling was lying in the carved deck chair, covered under a thin quilt. Eyes closed, he seemed asleep.

Qin Shu crept towards him. Her eyes turned red at the sight of the wrinkled old face.

She gently pulled the thin quilt over Grandpa Ling to his chest.

“Little Shu, you’re back.” Grandpa Ling suddenly spoke with his eyes still closed.

Qin Shu squatted beside him like before and said guiltily, “Yes, Grandpa. I’m back.”

Grandpa Ling opened his eyes and turned over to look at Qin Shu, “It’s good for you to be back. I thought it was a dream.”

“It’s not a dream.” Qin Shu held his hand. It was warm and steady, making her feel at ease. “Grandpa, I’m sorry. It’s my fault for not coming back to see you over the past few years.”

“I’m old. No one likes old men. You little girls like to look at those young and handsome guys.” Grandpa Ling said humorously, but it sounded a hint of blame. Obviously, he was not happy about Qin Shu’s not coming back for three years.

Qin Shu chuckled, “You are handsome no matter how old you are. It’s your temperament from within. Young guys experience little. They are only good looking but nobody compared to you.”

Grandpa was joyful over those words, and laughed loudly.

Although Grandpa Ling was old, he was still in good spirits. His turbid eyes shone with deep and reserved light. Only those who had experienced numerous hardships could have such eyes.

Ling Mohan stood beside them expressionlessly. Looking at Qin Shu’s charming and obedient smiling face, his heart got itchy.

If only Little Qin Shu could be so obedient to him.

Unfortunately, this woman was not an easy piece, causing Ling Mohan many troubles. Sometimes, he really wished to fix her.

“Grandpa, have you had dinner?” Qin Shu helped Grandpa Ling up from the deck chair.

Grandpa Ling waved his hand and sat down on the sofa, “It is hot. I have no appetite. But I just want to try the crystal meatballs you used to make.”

Qin Shu said with a smile, “I guess you’ve been expecting me. Alright. I’ll cook some of your favorite dishes right away and you’ll love them.”

“Alright. Then I can revel in your delicious meals.” Grandpa Ling smiled and looked happy.

His secretary led Qin Shu to the kitchen. Ling Mohan, who had been silent all the time, stepped forward. Before greeting grandpa, he was hit by Grandpa Ling with his walking stick.

Ling Mohan did not dodge and received a blow on his calf.

Grandpa glared at him, “Why don’t you bring Little Shu here earlier? I’ve waited for her so long!”

“There’s an emergency in the army. Things are delayed for a while.” Ling Mohan said in a deep voice.

“What happened?” Grandpa Ling asked.

“It’s classified military secret. No comment. Sorry.”

Grandpa Ling snorted and didn’t ask further. Instead, he frowned and mentioned another subject, “I’ve received the news from the superior. The Rose Organization has already listed you as the number one target to be assassinated. Be careful.”

“I won’t leave them any chance to kill me!” Ling Mohan sneered.

As an all-rounded member of the special force weathered barrage, he did not fear the assassins at all. But he did fear that Little Qin Shu would be implicated by those lunatics.

However, if he didn’t keep Qin Shu by his side, the other factions would stop at nothing to take her away. Qin Shu would suffer from unimaginable torture by those interrogators.

Most importantly, Qin Shu was brought up by Grandpa. If she was taken away for interrogation, they would definitely seize the opportunity to attack the Lings!

This was also an important reason why Grandpa Ling insisted on Ling Mohan marrying Qin Shu.

Currently, only a very small number of the elders of the Lings who had say knew Qin Shu’s special identity.

Ling Mohan also knew the reason but he couldn’t tell Qin Shu.

Therefore, Qin Shu still did not know the secret about herself at all, nor did she know that this secret would trigger a fight between several different factions.

Sometimes, the more you knew, the more dangerous it would be!

“Grandpa, this is the marriage certificate.” Ling Mohan took out the certificate from his pocket and handed it to grandpa.

Grandpa put on his presbyopia glasses and examined the certificate. After a while, he nodded with satisfaction, “Alright, Little Shu is now my granddaughter-in-law. She is also a member of the Lings. No one will dare to bully her.”

Grandpa’s voice was full of energy and power as usual, revealing his protection and care for Qin Shu.

A voice came from outside the door, “Grandpa, who wants to bully me?”

Qin Shu walked in with a bowl of hot egg custard, placed it on the dining table, and helped the old man up again.

Grandpa Ling said, “No one dare to bully you with me being here, no not even Mohan. Tell me if he bullies you. I will teach him a lesson.”

Qin Shu glanced at Ling Mohan with contentment.

Ling Mohan narrowed his eyes and stared at Qin Shu, “I won’t.”

Qin Shu was kind of frightened by his wolf-like gaze.

Bastard, let’s wait and see!

Qin Shu was especially mean about Ling Mohan. She often retaliated him. Qin Shu would definitely go back at Ling Mohan’s evil stare.

Qin Shu walked Grandpa to the table and helped him sat down. She smiled and said, “Grandpa, have some egg soup first.”

The golden egg soup was decorated with minced meat and scallions. It was soft and tender, and the fragrance was pleasant to the nose. One would have good appetite after taking a glance at it.

The old man took a bite and happily said, “This is the taste. Little Shu cooks the most delicious steamed egg custard.”

Ling Mohan stared at Qin Shu, thinking about the noodles cooked by her, which formed a distinctive contrast with the delicious and tender steamed egg custard now. He smiled slightly.

It seemed that he needed to teach Little Qin Shu a lesson as a military instructor.

Qin Shu cooked a few dishes that were favored by grandpa. Considering that grandpa was old, she cooked the dishes that were relatively light and easy to digest.

Ling Mohan went to the kitchen to help with the dishes. Qin Shu turned around and saw that he was using chopsticks to put the vegetables in order.

Qin Shu was speechless.

His obsessive-compulsive disorder was horrible!

Grandpa was in good mood. He had an extra half bowl of the rice.

After dinner, grandpa and Ling Mohan chatted in the living room. Qin Shu excused herself to make a phone call and hid in the bathroom to text Ling Mohan.

The phone in Ling Mohan’s pocket vibrated.

He took out his phone and read, “Dear Colonel, I am not only good at understanding you, but at undressing you.”

It was from Little Qin Shu.

Ling Mohan quietly put the phone back in his pocket, clenched his fists and coughed a little bit. He continued to chat with grandpa, “When will you move back to the military residential quarters?”

Grandpa leaned against the deck chair and closed his eyes. He said, “It is quiet here. No one disturbs me.”

He meant that he didn’t want to move back to the Lings’ mansion.

Ling Mohan acknowledged. Just as he was about to speak, his phone vibrated again.

“I want to slowly take off your military uniform, kiss, and caress every inch of your skin.”

Ling Mohan tried his best to control his breath and tightened his grip on his phone. After a while, he let go and put it back into his pocket as if nothing had happened.

“What’s wrong?” Noticing that he was silent, grandpa opened his eyes and gazed at Ling Mohan.

“Nothing. It’s from the army.” Ling Mohan’s expression remained unchanged.

Grandpa closed his eyes again.

Ling Mohan secretly clenched his fists, but Qin Shu continued to flirt with him and then sent him another text message…

Swoosh!

Ling Mohan stood up abruptly. His expression was grave. He whispered to grandpa, “I’ll go out and make a phone call. Take a rest please.”

With his eyes closed, grandpa waved his hand, indicating that Ling Mohan could do whatever he wanted.

Ling Mohan strode out. In his pitch-black eyes was a terrifying storm.

Qin Shu was hiding in the bathroom and laughing.

She was quite sure that Ling Mohan was going through a hard time now!

After translating countless romantic novels in both ancient and modern times, Qin Shu became good at making up seductive text messages.

She could even imagine that Ling Mohan had to pretend to be serious in front of grandpa despite her flirting.

It was so much fun.

Ling Mohan would never dare to look at her with that presumptuous gaze in the future!

Just as Qin Shu was about to send another message to tease Ling Mohan, the door was suddenly opened.

Before she realized what was going on, she was pressed down onto the washstand!

“Uh-huh-huh!” Qin Shu struggled, with no idea about how Ling Mohan knew she was hiding in the bathroom.

Ling Mohan bit her crazily.

Now Qin Shu realized that she had overestimated Ling Mohan’s self-control capacity!

“Wait!” Qin Shu covered the thin lips of Ling Mohan with her palms when she managed to take a breath, “Grandpa is still in the living room. Behave yourself.”

Ling Mohan stared fiercely at Qin Shu with blazing flames in his eyes.

He was probably insane!

He had never had such intense feelings before. He could remain composed when those sexier and hotter women went all over him.

But now he lost control over himself after being flirted with just three text messages from Little Qin Shu!

Ling Mohan attributed this reaction to the fact that he had endured it too long. He forcefully pinched Qin Shu’s wrist and said word by word, “So what?”

His gaze was too intense, making Qin Shu tremble in fear.

She was in trouble now.

She had crossed his line. What should she do now?
