Early in the morning, Cheng Su walked out the door with an electric rice cooker in her hands, yawning, when she heard a bout of crying and consoling voices coming through.
"Where could he go, where else could he possibly go? He's just angry with me, not coming home for a whole night; we've been married for so long, when has this ever happened?"
That was Hualing's voice.
"Maybe he slept at the barracks, don't overthink it, Platoon Leader Chen isn't one of those unfaithful types." Chunhua's voice arose in Hualing's place.
Cheng Su walked over, knocked on the door, and asked, "What happened?"
Upon seeing her, Hualing turned her back, wiping her eyes with the back of her hand, while Chunhua said, "Hualing had a little argument with Platoon Leader Chen yesterday, and, well, Platoon Leader Chen didn't come home all night."
Cheng Su suddenly realized, saying, "He might have slept in the barracks' dormitory then."
