Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 265 - 264: Zhao Weiguo Cursed Inwardly, Then Gritted His Teeth and Said, "Turn Back!
Sheng Zexi knew that Zhao Weiguo didn’t believe his wife’s words.
Since he didn’t believe it, just forget it. Anyway, he had already advised him.
So, after finishing their meal at the state-run restaurant, the two sides parted ways.
Sheng Zexi took Gu Jia Ning along with Xingxing and Yueyue, found a nice hotel, and settled down.
Maybe because they had been on the train for too long, or were a bit tired and full after eating, Xingxing and Yueyue, being kids, fell asleep quickly after lying on the bed.
Gu Jia Ning took out some things from the luggage and quietly asked Sheng Zexi, "Do you really trust me that much? Aren’t you curious how I knew it would pour?"
Sheng Zexi patted her head and said as if it were natural, "You’re my wife, of course, I trust you."
"As for how you know... my wife surely has some magical ability."
Gu Jia Ning laughed, leaned into his ear, and said to him, "I wasn’t lying. I have something that lets me see the weather forecast for an entire province in real-time."
Sheng Zexi: I see.
"Alright, as long as you know, just remember not to tell anyone else."
"I know. It’s just... what about Brother Zhao’s side... will it affect your relationship?"
Sheng Zexi shook his head, "My relationship with him is just average." In fact, they were just ordinary comrades, merely acquaintances, but Sheng Zexi and Zhao Weiguo didn’t really have a deep connection. Mainly, Sheng Zexi felt Zhao Weiguo’s thinking didn’t align with his own.
For these ordinary relationships, Sheng Zexi didn’t spend much effort to maintain them.
To him, his wife was obviously more important than ordinary comrades.
"Alright then." Hearing what Sheng Zexi said, Gu Jia Ning breathed a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, Zhao Weiguo had already boarded the ship with supplies.
Zhao Weiguo was the logistics director of the Huan Sha Island Military District, and this time he brought some soldiers to procure supplies and came to pick up Sheng Zexi.
Unexpectedly, Sheng Zexi...
"Director Zhao, hasn’t the Sheng Group arrived yet?" someone below asked.
They knew that Zhao Weiguo was also here today to transfer Sheng Zexi’s family to Huan Sha Island.
But now, the ship was about to set sail, yet no one was in sight.
"They’ve arrived, but they plan to go to Huan Sha Island tomorrow."
"Oh, why?"
Zhao Weiguo didn’t hide it and directly explained that Gu Jia Ning said it would pour within half an hour and last for four hours.
"This Brother Sheng, everything’s fine, but he’s too obedient to his wife." Zhao Weiguo lamented.
A woman, besides taking care of the household, what other use does she have?
Moreover, Sheng Zexi’s wife, rumored to be from the countryside, didn’t seem to have any special skills.
Zhao Weiguo thought Sheng Zexi probably chose her for her beauty, overlooking other aspects.
"When marrying a wife, don’t just look at her appearance. Marry a virtuous woman," Zhao Weiguo sighed.
Then, Zhao Weiguo looked at the sky and said, "Set sail."
With Zhao Weiguo’s command, the ship quickly set off.
Unexpectedly, after about twenty minutes, the weather remained as sunny as ever.
"I knew it, Sheng Zexi’s wife was talking nonsense."
However, just as Zhao Weiguo said this, the previously clear sky suddenly changed!
It really changed all of a sudden!
In an instant, it turned dark, with a deep darkness seemingly enveloping them, even the sea became turbulent.
"Director Zhao, no, it’s too dark, visibility is too low, we can’t sail."
At this moment, someone timidly said, "Didn’t Sheng Group’s wife say it would rain heavily within half an hour, could it really..."
"Impossible!" Before that person could finish, Zhao Weiguo glared at him.
How could a woman’s words possibly be right?
Of course, the fundamental reason was that Zhao Weiguo didn’t want to lose to a woman.
But reality was evidently not on Zhao Weiguo’s side, and soon it slapped him hard in the face.
In less than five minutes, torrential rain poured down, directly pounding on their heads and the ship.
"It really is pouring rain!"
"It seems it really rained within half an hour."
"Director Zhao, no, the rain is too heavy, we can’t go on, otherwise, we should turn back."
Zhao Weiguo, drenched in rain, looked a bit grim.
His face was full of shock.
It turned out that Sheng Zexi’s wife was right.
How did she know?
Incredibly, she was more skilled than him, who had lived on the island for so many years.
Zhao Weiguo really didn’t want to turn back, so he remained silent.
If he went back, wouldn’t that mean he was wrong?
What if this heavy rain was just temporary and stopped soon?
At this moment, someone said, "Didn’t Director Zhao just say that Sheng Group’s wife said the heavy rain would last for four hours?"
"If it’s really going to rain for four hours, then we definitely can’t stay here any longer."
Otherwise, they might never return.
Everyone turned to Zhao Weiguo to make a decision.
Zhao Weiguo: ...
Zhao Weiguo cursed inwardly, pondered for a moment, and then gritted his teeth, saying, "Turn back!"
If the rain stopped suddenly, it wouldn’t be an issue, but if it was really like Sheng Zexi’s wife said, and it lasted for four hours, then staying here or continuing forward would certainly be dangerous.
Zhao Weiguo, although quite competitive, especially reluctant to lose to a woman, couldn’t afford to let his men and the procured supplies get into trouble.
So...
He had to go back!
Reality proved Zhao Weiguo’s decision to turn back was correct.
All the way back, it kept raining heavily.
Even when they reached the county town, the rain, though smaller, continued.
"Let’s find a hotel to rest first!" After docking the ship and securing the supplies, Zhao Weiguo and his men quickly found a nearby hotel.
However, as soon as they entered, they looked up and ran into Sheng Zexi.
Zhao Weiguo...
The neat and tidy Sheng Zexi, compared to the bedraggled, soaking-wet Zhao Weiguo and his group, was too stark a contrast.
Sheng Zexi: Serves you right for not listening to my wife, now you’re getting your lesson.
Thinking so in his heart, Sheng Zexi outwardly said, "Brother Zhao, what’s up with you guys?"
Zhao Weiguo just felt extremely embarrassed.
He had no choice but to explain, "We encountered a heavy rain and turned back."
Sheng Zexi "Oh"ed; if it were before, he would definitely have made some sarcastic comments, but now he was much more at peace.
"It’s alright, have a good rest at the hotel and go back together tomorrow."
"Okay."
After Sheng Zexi turned and left, Zhao Weiguo and the others immediately went to find a room, took a shower, and changed clothes.
Meanwhile, Sheng Zexi returned to his room and recounted running into Zhao Weiguo and their return. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
"Are they okay?" Gu Jia Ning was still a bit worried.
"They’re fine, just soaking wet and a bit embarrassed, no big deal."
"That’s good."
