No!
Men probably all had this scent.
Li Beinian put on a T-shirt and realized that the shirt was particularly long.
After putting on shorts, her whole body was covered as if she was wearing a dress.
She carried the dirty clothes out and as soon as she walked out, she saw a black and strong young man probing his head out and looking over.
After he saw Li Beinian’s face clearly, surprise glinted in his eyes. He chuckled and left quickly.
Li Beinian felt like she had become a monkey.
Everyone came over and gave her a few glances.
Although they didn’t do anything offensive, she still felt uncomfortable.
She felt even more ashamed when they called her sister-in-law behind her back.
But she couldn’t say anything since they didn’t call her in front of her.
Several young guys walked in front of her and Li Beinian grabbed one of them and said, “Wait.”
The man turned and grinned, asking shyly, “Sister-in-law, what’s the matter?”
Li Beinian was speechless for a moment before she explained, “I’m not your sister-in-law. Your Chief just saved me today.”
The young man heard this and was stunned. Then, he looked around and nodded meaningfully. “Oh, so that’s the case.”
Li Beinian didn’t even know what to say.
She could only change the topic. “Where’s Mu Xichen?”
The young man said diligently, “I’ll take you there. Chief has been forced to take medicine just now and is probably asleep.”
“Forced to take medicine?”
“Yeah.” The young man chuckled. “You don’t know, but Chief hates taking medicine and would make Old Xing extremely angry.”
“Old Xing?”
“He’s our military doctor. He’s a little older and will probably retire together with Chief.” The young man led Li Beinian to a tent. “We’re here, go in.”
“Thank you.”
“You’re welcome. Then, I’ll leave first.” The young man smiled and ran away quickly. He stood together with three or five commanders not far away and looked over.
Li Beinian wasn’t surprised anymore and went to knock twice on the tent.
Soon, the curtain was lifted from the inside.
Mu Xichen was naked and had a thin quilt on his body.
When he saw Li Beinian, his eyes stared intensely on her body.
She was wearing his clothes loosely and it was very long.
She looked even more petite when she was already so thin.
Her long hair was tied up, and maybe it was because she had just taken a shower, but the hair beside her cheek was a little wet and stuck to her face as if covered with a hazy vapor.
The light grey T-shirt she was wearing was like a short skirt, and the way her fair-skinned arms and legs were exposed made Mu Xichen’s heart shake.
“Where are your clothes? I’ll wash them together for you.” Li Beinian bent over and retrieved his coat, then leaned in to look. “Do you have washing powder?”
Her voice was crisp and pleasing.
Mu Xichen looked away, his cheeks slightly hot. He said, “There’s no need, just wash that one.”
“You only have this?” Li Beinian’s expression was strange, and she came in without a second word.
Mu Xichen was shocked by her movement and looked subconsciously outside.
The few guys who were fond of gossip were still standing there and looking over, whispering amongst themselves.
The blush on his face intensified, but he felt very unhappy inside.
He pulled the curtains and blocked all eyes from looking in.
Cheering voices came from outside, followed by laughter as they walked away
The tent was dim and the two of them were left alone.
