Chapter 971 You Welcome Your Man with a Knife

Zhou Yao was dripping with water all over his body, from the ends of his hair to his toes. He took the oxygen mask off his nose, squeezed the seawater on the corner of his clothes with his hands, and then raised his feet to walk forward.

After taking a step, he suddenly stopped.

Because there was a landmine buried in the mud in front.

Zhou Yao took a look and felt his heartbeat suddenly accelerated. He picked up the telescope around his neck and looked forward. He actually saw lights through the sparse woods.

Not one light, but rows and rows of lights.

There are people living here, and not just one person!

Sparks instantly appeared in Zhou Yao's narrow and bright eyes. A voice in his heart told him, Zhou Yao, you found the right place, she must be here!

He frowned and restrained the joy and excitement in his heart. Ye Ziyi was here, he couldn't take it lightly, and couldn't be caught without seeing her.

Landmines were a piece of cake for him. He jumped over the minefield and came to a safe area. With the light of the lamp, he could see the island clearly. It was a beautiful and delicate island with vegetables and fruits planted everywhere and beautiful flowers blooming. Zhou Yao knew that this must be Ye Ziyi's masterpiece.

At the dock, Ye Ziyi told him that he would take her away and take her to a paradise with spring all year round. She would definitely like it there and like him...

What about now?

How are she and Ye Ziyi doing?

Zhou Yao felt that his heartbeat was out of control. He had always wanted to find her. For so long, there was nothing else in his life except finding her, but now that he really had to find her, he was... timid again.

He was very nervous.

Is this what others say---close to love but timid?

While Zhou Yao was daydreaming, two women carrying two buckets of water walked past him. He dodged and hid in a bush. He only heard the two women talking---

"Let's go quickly, otherwise the hot water in the bucket will get cold, and the madam is still waiting to take a bath..."

Madam?

Who are they talking about?

Zhou Yao quietly followed the two women. It was night and it was very convenient to move, so he safely followed them to the back of a house.

Someone in the room was talking, "Madam, the hot water is ready, you can take a bath."

"Yes." Someone snorted.

This voice made Zhou Yao's pupils shrink, and his blood boiled, and then rushed to his brain. He would never forget this cold and elegant voice. She had called him countless times, "Hey, Major General Zhou", and she would also entangle him like a water charm and call him Zhou Yao on countless nights...

How could he forget?

It was her!

His woman, his daughter-in-law, his... Leng Zhiyuan

The two women had already left. There was a rustling sound of undressing in the room, and then the sound of water. She should be taking a shower.

Zhou Yao looked around and then climbed in through the window.

The black military boots landed gently and steadily on the floor, which was covered with a layer of light yellow wool carpet. The room was decorated elegantly, and the temperature was comfortable and pleasant...

Zhou Yao looked up and saw a large wooden barrel in front of him, with hot steam rising from it.

However, there was no one in the barrel.

Zhou Yao immediately realized something, but it was too late. A sharp knife was pressed against his lower back, and a cold voice rang in his ears, "Who are you?"

Zhou Yao no longer had any doubts. The woman standing behind him was Leng Zhiyuan.

He immediately raised his hands in surrender, with a tender arc at the corner of his mouth, and his voice was hoarse, "Wife, we haven't seen each other for so long, you just welcome your man with a knife like this? Isn't it... too enthusiastic?"

At this time, the skin on his lower back hurt. It turned out that the woman behind him pushed the sharp knife a few more inches, and the sharp blade immediately cut through his black clothes and pierced into his muscles.

"Speak properly!" Her voice was cold and harsh.

Zhou Yao's eyes flashed, and he quickly became alert. She would never stab him like this. In the past, she was reluctant to use force even when she hit him.

He frowned, "Wife, are you serious?"

"What else?"

Zhou Yao's face changed, and he quickly dodged to the side. The woman behind him immediately spread her five fingers and grabbed his neck. He reached out and grabbed her little hand, and pressed her against the wall.

"Let go!" Leng Zhiyuan stared at him with cold eyes.

"Wife, don't move. You know you can't beat me!"

"Hmph!" Leng Zhiyuan turned his head away.

Zhou Yao looked at the little face in front of him seriously. She had appeared in his dreams countless times, but every time he wanted to hug her and kiss her, she disappeared like a puff of smoke. Now, she finally appeared in reality.

She was the same as before, not much changed, with stunning facial features and attractive red lips. Her skin seemed to be whiter, and a layer of fine fluff was clearly visible on it. For some reason, although her expression was very cold, she actually made him see some softness at this moment.

This kind of softness has never been seen before.

"Wife, what's wrong with you? Are you kidding me? I found you, I finally found you!" He slowly stretched out his big hand and touched her little face infatuatedly.

Leng Zhiyuan did not avoid it. She met his gaze, "Who are you?"

Zhou Yao was stunned. He didn't understand her question. She...asked him who he was? ?

"You are not from this island, because I have never seen you. What are you doing here?" Leng Zhiyuan looked him up and down as he spoke, "You have swum here, you can swim in such deep water. It means your status is very special, you are...a special soldier? But it doesn't look like a special soldier came here just to tease me?"

Zhou Yao looked into her eyes. She was not joking. She was looking at him seriously and testing him. There was no warmth in her eyes, nor the affection of the past. She seemed to regard him as a... stranger.

He was a little stagnant, and Leng Zhiyuan took the opportunity to break free from his restraints and took several steps back.

She put on the coat she had just taken off, "No matter who you are, let's go. Oh, maybe you can't leave anymore, someone is coming."

Zhou Yao also heard the footsteps outside. The window was open at the moment. If he had any sense, he should leave immediately. He only needed to hide for an hour, and his reinforcements would arrive immediately.

But his feet seemed to have taken root and he could no longer move an inch. At this moment, Leng Zhiyuan stood sideways in front of him, and he could clearly see her bulging belly.

She has a big belly!

Zhou Yao felt like a lightning struck his brain directly. He could do nothing but stare at her big belly in confusion. He couldn't recover for a long time. He never thought it would be like this.

"Are you...pregnant?" He walked towards her.
