In the following days, Qi Taiguo, just as he said, was often at the military base, only coming home to rest. Cheng Su was usually home alone.
If he stayed overnight, he took the initiative to sleep on the bivouac in the small room, leaving the master bedroom and large bed to Cheng Su. Their cohabitation, lacking the warmth of a couple, was harmonious nonetheless, and actually felt a bit like roommates. At least for now, there were no conflicts.
Of course, if Cheng Su wasn't home, he would sleep in the large bed; after all, it was comfortable. But that bed carried Cheng Su's scent, which made him feel oddly uncomfortable, and he had to endure it, sometimes regretting why he agreed to Cheng Su's so-called "three-chapter agreement." She was his wife and should be living a married life with him!
But a promise made, he, as a man, couldn't go back on his word; he just had to put up with it.
