Reborn as a Tough Army Wife-Chapter 775 - 770: You Are the Treasure in Our Hearts

Sure, here’s the translation:

Therefore, Fang Pingying listened and didn’t say much more.

After thinking it over, she called Luo Honglan, gave her some money, and advised, "Hong Lan, tonight your brother is not in a good mood, having too many people at home can be unsettling. Take this money and go out for a meal with your family. Hui Zi will take you to a place, and after dinner, let Hui Zi take you home. As for other matters, wait a few days until your brother’s mood improves to make decisions."

After speaking, Fang Pingying turned to Luo Cuilan and said, "Cui Lan, if you’d like to stay here, spend a few days playing with Zhuzhu, and we can slowly arrange the rest."

Luo Cuilan responded with a smile and said, "I won’t be staying here tonight. I’ll go back with my mom and them. Zhuzhu’s things are over there, it’s more convenient for us to go back."

As soon as Luo Cuilan finished speaking, Fang Pingying noticed Zhou Yunmei quietly tugging at Luo Cuilan’s hand.

Zhou Yunmei was thinking that if Luo Cuilan stayed here, even if she couldn’t stay overnight, she could find more opportunities to come here.

But, Luo Cuilan knew Zhou Yunmei’s intentions and didn’t pay attention to her.

Fang Pingying saw the situation, merely raised an eyebrow, and didn’t say anything, aware that suggesting Zhou Yunmei stay here overnight was likely impossible in this lifetime.

Luo Honglan saw the money Fang Pingying handed over and quickly pushed it back, "Sister-in-law, no need for money, I have money. At worst, we’ll go back and eat at my dad’s."

Fang Pingying forcefully put the money into her hand, "Take it, you can accompany them out. Your brother and I, along with a few kids, won’t be going."

Luo Honglan had no choice but to accept, "Alright."

Afterward, Luo Honglan called everyone out for dinner, while Fang Pingying turned upstairs but suddenly heard Zhou Yunmei calling behind, "Pingying, I want to see Hao..."

Fang Pingying knew what she wanted to say and directly interrupted, "Haohao and the others are playing in the backyard, don’t scare him."

Seeing Zhou Yunmei still wanting to say more, Fang Pingying furrowed her brows slightly and looked directly at her, implicitly saying, "Haohao is only three years old, but he’s starting to remember things. He knows it’s you and wouldn’t want to see you."

"I..."

"Mom, let it be." Luo Zhiming held back Zhou Yunmei wanting to argue, with a slightly appeasing look at Fang Pingying, "Sister-in-law, I’ll come back in a few days to discuss Haohao with you and Fang Xiu, is that okay?"

With Luo Zhiming’s conciliatory attitude, Fang Pingying could accept it. Moreover, having heard from Luo Zhiyong that Luo Zhiming genuinely admitted his mistake, some of her anger towards Luo Zhiming dissipated. She did not refuse and nodded slightly, "Alright, call here before you come, I’ll have Fang Xiu come."

After sending everyone away, Fang Pingying returned upstairs to her and Luo Zhiyong’s bedroom.

Upon entering the bedroom, she saw Luo Zhiyong sitting on the small sofa, smoking, looking dispirited.

Since Luo Zhiyong was injured, Fang Pingying had completely forbidden him from smoking. She saw him, walked over, took the cigarette from his hand, and softly asked, "What’s wrong, feeling sad?"

Seeing his closest person, Luo Zhiyong didn’t hide anything, gently nodding, still somewhat unable to accept, "Pingying, how did this whole thing feel so unreal? Suddenly my background is problematic, I’ve never thought about this before."

Fang Pingying understood his thoughts and said nothing more. She stayed with him, holding his arm, quietly sitting on the small sofa. After seeing him calm down a bit, she asked, "Zhiyong, can you tell me what exactly bothers you?"

Luo Zhiyong looked at Fang Pingying, unsure how to answer.

Fang Pingying said, "Is it that you’re upset about your birth mother leaving you under such circumstances, or that your birth mom abandoned you, or perhaps you’re resenting dad for deceiving you?"

"I..." Luo Zhiyong thought for a while before saying, "Actually, it might be a bit of everything."

Fang Pingying replied, "In my view, you don’t have to mind any of it. After all, these things ultimately belong to the previous generation’s issues, you can’t change them. Now that we have children, there seems no need to think about acceptance, because regardless of acceptance, the result remains the same."

Pausing slightly, Fang Pingying gently grasped Luo Zhiyong’s hand in hers, looking at him with unparalleled tenderness, saying, "Just remember, regardless of how you’re seen by your birth mom, or in Zhou Yunmei’s heart, you may not be valued, but in the hearts of me and the children, you’re our treasure. We cannot lose you; seeing you sad, we too feel even sadder."

"Pingying, I..." The couple seldom exchanged such tender words, causing Luo Zhiyong’s eyes to glitter slightly, his eyes somewhat moist.

Faced with too many things today gave Luo Zhiyong a sense of defeat, feeling like he has been an unwanted child since young, and even growing up, no one truly cared about or valued him.

Being a man, he found it hard to verbalize such sentiments but truly felt the sadness inside.

Fang Pingying’s words filled him with emotion, making his nose slightly sore.

Having been together for so long, Fang Pingying understood Luo Zhiyong’s thoughts at this moment. Seeing his demeanor, she deliberately teased him, smilingly saying, "Alright, old married couple, no need for polite words, I understand."

"How could there be such an unromantic woman?" In truth, Luo Zhiyong wanted to say, how could there be such a wonderful woman, for him, she was his treasure. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Perhaps, for Luo Zhiyong, having Fang Pingying beside him was truly a form of compensation from heaven.

Throughout his life, his birth mother abandoned him. Even if his adoptive mother kept him, it was merely for her labor.

In essence, he had not received real maternal love throughout his life.

Thus, heaven allowed him to meet such a good wife.

Fang Pingying, hearing this, deliberately teased him, "Since you’ve always been like this, if you don’t like it, you can go outside and seek those sensible and sophisticated young ladies. At least your face can still catch the eye..."

Before Fang Pingying finished speaking, her lips were suddenly sealed by Luo Zhiyong.

Unlike past passionate encounters, this time Luo Zhiyong was exceptionally gentle, merely kissing her lips tenderly, not delving deeper, only lips touching, then separating with a delicate stickiness. Yet, this gentle lip contact caused Fang Pingying to feel more moved than ever, as if their hearts had truly neared another step. They became intertwined with each other’s core, able to share and withstand anything together.
