The next day, Sienna helped Rowan with the discharge papers from the hospital. The hospital didn't stop them, since everyone knew she had great medical skills.
When Felix came in the morning to bring food, the two of them had already packed their things.
Seeing this, Felix asked, "Rowan, Sienna, what are you doing?"
"I'm being discharged. Since you're here, help take us back to the family housing area," Rowan replied.
"Rowan, you just woke up yesterday. Can you really leave the hospital today? Is the doctor really that reliable?"
As Felix finished speaking, the doctor walked in. Felix immediately asked, "Doctor, my buddy is leaving the hospital already? Are you sure?"
The doctor looked at him and said, "Sienna is skilled in medicine. She can take care of him just as well at home. Besides, I'm just here to bring the medicine."
The doctor thought, "I came in pretending not to hear anything. Why can't you just leave me alone?"
After hearing that, Felix said, "Right, I forgot Sienna is also a doctor."
The doctor ignored him, handed the medicine to Sienna, and said, "Here are the bandages, wound medicine, antibiotics, and disinfectant."
Rowan quickly took it and said, "Thank you, Doctor."
"No need. It's our job."
After the doctor left, Rowan looked at Felix. "Weren't you here to bring food?"
Felix handed him the food and found a place to sit. Rowan opened the food container and gave it to Sienna first, then started eating himself.
"Felix, have you eaten?" Sienna asked.
"I have. This is just for you two."
"After we get back, go back to training. I need a few days to rest, so I won't be able to lead the team."
"Alright. Even if you stayed in the hospital, I'd still go back to training tomorrow since Sienna's home."
After they got home, Sienna started cleaning the house. She didn't let Rowan help this time. She did everything herself.
Once everything was tidy, Sienna sat down across from Rowan. Rowan put down his book and looked at her.
"Wife, come sit next to me. Why are you sitting so far away?"
"No. I need to talk to you about something serious."
Rowan sat up straight. "Okay, tell me."
"You don't know what happened before, so I'll let that go. But if I find out you're getting close to another woman, or letting any woman get close to you, I'll break your legs."
"Wife, don't worry. I promise I won't."
"You said I'm your wife, so you have to stay loyal to me. Don't think I don't understand just because I act like a robot."
"Wife, don't wrongly accuse me. I'm completely loyal to you."
"Good. One last thing. Can we bring your mom to live with us in the capital?"
Rowan raised his eyebrows. Most people want to live far from their mother-in-law, but his wife wanted to bring her over.
"Why, wife? Isn't it good just the two of us? My mom never lived with a daughter-in-law. I don't think she wants to."
"But I feel bored here. I think your mom taught me a lot of useful things, and I want to learn more from her. I still don't understand many things, especially social manners. My mind feels completely blank."
When he heard those words, Rowan hesitated. He felt that if his mom came, things wouldn't go well for him. He had a bad feeling.
"Wife, if Mom comes, what about Dad? Do you really want to separate them?"
"Let Dad come too."
Rowan thought for a moment and said, "Wife, if Mom and Dad come, we might have a problem with food, so we'll have to lower our living standard. Also, Dad is the team leader. He might not want to leave his job."
"Are our salaries really that low? It's okay. I can take on more missions. I want Mom and Dad to come. I like them."
After hearing that, Rowan said, "Then let's write a letter to them and ask them to come."
"Wife, if they come here, then we'll be responsible for taking care of them in their old age. They won't live with my older brother and his wife anymore."
"Okay."
Before, Sienna didn't plan to bring Cuilan to the army base, but this time that girl made her understand that everything Mom said was true. As someone who just became human, she didn't understand much and needed outside help. She happened to really like Mom.
Rowan was happy. He always wanted his parents to live with him, where life was better. But since he wasn't the eldest son, he had to think about his wife's feelings and couldn't decide by himself. After all, it was something for both of them.
Cuilan: Thank you, daughter. In the end, I still have to count on you. That son-in-law of mine is just a live-in husband.
After everything was discussed, Rowan said, "Wife, can we sit down now? Let's write the letter together. If I write it, Mom won't believe it. She might not want to come."
The two of them wrote a letter to the family together. Rowan took Sienna to mail it and taught her how to do it. Sienna learned very seriously.
In the afternoon, the couple was reading together when there was a knock on the door.
Knock knock knock
Sienna quickly went to check the door and saw a young soldier. "What do you need?"
The soldier saluted and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm here to take you to the general's office."
Sienna was surprised, then said, "Please wait a moment."
She quickly went back inside, changed clothes, and said to Rowan, "I need to go to the general's office. I'll head out for a bit."
Rowan put down his book and said, "I'll go with you."
"No need, just stay home and relax. Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
After saying that, she left with the young soldier. Rowan looked at his book, but he couldn't focus anymore. He was really worried about his wife.
Sienna quickly arrived at the general's office. When she went in, she saw an old man who looked serious and powerful.
The young soldier who brought her had already left. Now only the two of them were in the room. Sienna found a chair, sat down, and didn't say anything.
The general smiled as he watched her. He thought this girl was interesting and didn't act like an outsider at all.
He even thought if he had hot water and tea leaves in the room, Sienna might just make herself a cup.
After a while, when no one spoke and he just kept staring at her, Sienna got up, ready to leave.
Seeing that she was getting impatient, the general finally spoke. "Comrade Sienna, I'm Zhang Lun, the general of the capital's military district. I called you here because I have something to discuss."
Sienna sat back down and said, "Go ahead. What is it?"
