Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 652: Chapter 652: Awarded a First-Class Merit

Drinking this medicine will only make the odor on your body stronger.

As for her coming to cause trouble, there’s naturally a way to handle it. Since she brought herself here to be made a fool of, there’s no reason not to play along.

Who asked her to harbor ill intentions first? I’m not the Holy Mother Mary, after all.

Nearing the end of the workday, Sister-in-law Zhuang came in with her daughter.

Yunyi saw them and knew they had intentionally timed their visit: ”How have things been these days?”

Zhuang Haijuan blushed with embarrassment: ”I’ve finished the medicine, and it just so happens today I got my period. My stomach doesn’t hurt as much as before, and my body doesn’t feel as cold as it used to these days.”

Yunyi nodded slightly: ”Sit down, I’ll check your pulse again.”

Hearing Yunyi’s words, Zhuang Haijuan sat down.

Yun casually said: ”During the treatment, it’s best not to have intercourse.”

These words were indeed a bit awkward coming from an unmarried girl, but she had to make the reminder.

Zhuang Haijuan’s face turned even redder.

She adjusted the prescription: ”Pause the medicine during your period. Once your body feels better, continue. Then, find some time every afternoon to come to me for acupuncture.”

After seeing them off, it was also closing time. Just as everything was tidied up, Huo Jingrui walked in smiling: ”What brings you here?”

Huo Jingrui smiled and took the bag from her hand: ”Let’s eat out tonight.”

Yunyi was a bit puzzled: ”What’s the occasion?”

Huo Jingrui nodded slightly: ”Come on, I’ll tell you on the way.”

The two walked out together, causing a stir of envy: ”Doctor Chu is really lucky, not only did she find such a handsome fiancé, but he’s also so considerate. He comes to pick her up every now and then.”

Both of them had good hearing, so even though the comments were softly spoken, they heard them clearly.

They exchanged a glance and walked out of the Workers’ Hospital side by side.

Seeing no one ahead, Yunyi asked: ”What’s the happy occasion?”

Huo Jingrui looked at Yunyi and lowered his voice: ”I just got a call from Beijing. Due to the outstanding completion of the last mission, I’ve been awarded a first-class individual merit. There’ll be a promotion when I return to the team.”

Yunyi couldn’t hide her smile upon hearing the news: ”Congratulations, Comrade Huo. In a little over a year, you’ve gone from deputy to full rank. Any thoughts?”

Huo Jingrui looked at Yunyi: ”Half of the military honors belong to you.”

His words were sincere; without Yunyi’s assistance on the last mission, it would’ve been much harder: ”Also, the application we submitted earlier has been approved. Your reward has already been decided. There should be news in a few days.”

Yunyi beamed: ”Then we certainly should celebrate.”

After saying that, she smiled at Huo Jingrui: ”So, what do you plan to treat me to?”

Huo Jingrui was in a good mood, a smile lingering on his lips: ”Minister Kang from the armed forces called. They got a wild goat, and tonight their canteen is having a special meal. I’ll take you to eat roasted lamb ribs.”

Upon hearing this, Yunyi couldn’t help but salivate, feeling it was quite embarrassing.

When they arrived, Minister Kang was just coming down from the office building. He probably saw Huo Jingrui’s car and came down.

As they got out of the car, Minister Kang greeted them with a smile: ”You got the news too, I assume?”

Huo Jingrui joked with a smile: ”Did you get the news and specifically get a lamb to celebrate?”

Minister Kang waved his hand, smiling: ”It’s purely a coincidence, we just happened to get a wild goat today. Isn’t that lucky?”

He continued: ”Master Zhang in our canteen is a specialist at roasting lamb ribs, so you’re in for a treat today.”
