Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The large disappointment and sadness surrounded Nan Zhi like a large web, so much that she could not breathe properly.
She clenched tightly onto the thing in her palms, looking down as her eyelashes fluttered crazily.
She bit her lip, her body curling up in helplessness.
She did not know when they could meet again. In her heart, all she felt was an unprecedented confusion and suffocation.
Suddenly, a hoarse and aloof voice rang above her head. “What are you squatting here for?”
Nan Zhi trembled immediately.
At one point, she even thought something was wrong with her hearing, until the man kicked her with his leather shoe.
The slight pain made Nan Zhi regain her senses.
She slowly looked up. The first thing that she saw was the man’s straight military pants. Her eyes moved up his pair of long legs, stopping to see the weapon belt around his waist. A few seconds later, her eyes landed on his face.
The well-defined face was blinded slightly by the light, so she could not see his facial features properly, only thinking that he looked exceptionally cool and fierce.
The man’s aura also felt even stronger after wearing the military uniform. Just him looking at her was enough to make her feel like she could not breathe properly.
“Why are you still squatting on the floor? Get up!”
He reached his well-defined palm towards her.
Nan Zhi did not dare to be too close to him in public. She did not hold his hand, getting up by herself slowly.
She had squatted for too long, her calves slightly numbed already.
However, she held the discomfort down, not showing any of it on her face.
The man’s black eyes landed on her, as he pursed his thin lips tightly. He spoke coldly, “Where did you go last night?”
Nan Zhi’s tensed heartstrings immediately broke when she heard his familiar tone. Her eyes welled up in tears, stretching out her hand towards him.
She slowly opened her hands.
An amulet that ensured safety was lying on her palm.
Mu Sihan felt his temple twitching when he saw the thing in her hand. The vein on his forehead popped out, as the anger within him started to swell again.
What was this?
She ran out silently at night just to go pray for this?
Nan Zhi hurriedly explained when she noticed the man’s expression darken, “I heard that the Master Guang Dao from the Jaded Buddha Temple has practiced for many years and has a very strong ability in his blessings as every protection amulet was very effective and can protect one’s safety. I...”
Before she could finish, the man interrupted coldly, “Master Guang Dao doesn’t give his blessings easily to others. What were you doing, going in the middle of the night?”
Nan Zhi bit her lips. “I didn’t do anything, I merely knelt for a few hours. The Master saw my sincerity and agreed to my request.”
Mu Sihan’s straight eyebrows were furrowed tightly together, as his eyes glanced at her knees. “You... Life and death are fated. Do you think that this thing can protect my life?”
Nan Zhi’s face paled from his scoldings.
She bit her lip tightly, holding onto his hand as she placed the protection amulet in his palm. “I’d rather believe in something than have nothing to believe in. I believe that it can protect your safety.”
She wanted to retract her hand, only to be held tighter by him.
Before she could react, he tugged and pulled her into his muscular and firm chest.
The texture of his military uniform was slightly hard as she bumped into him and hurt her nose unconsciously.
She sucked in a cold breath from the pain.
She wanted to lift her hand up to punch him several times, but she stopped at the thought that they were on the roads.
She struggled, wanting to leave his embrace. She said weakly, “Let go of me, others will see.”
“I’m f**king going to the battlefield. What was wrong with hugging my woman? Anyone who wants to see can see!”
His tone was exceptionally arrogant, but the way he said it made Nan Zhi’s heart thump rapidly.
Mu Sihan’s firm chin rubbed against the top of Nan Zhi’s head, as he said hoarsely, “Don’t worry. I don’t have anything else apart from having a strong life.”
Nan Zhi nodded in his arms, her eyes slightly moist, though her voice was exceptionally firm. “I’ll wait for you to come back.”
Yi Fan walked over, reminding Mu Sihan, “Young Master, we have to leave now.”
Mu Sihan turned back, glaring at Yi Fan ruthlessly. Yi Fan looked down, though he continued to remind him, “The Queen and the soldiers are still waiting for you in the camp.”
Mu Sihan had no other choice but to let go of Nan Zhi, his large hand caressing her pretty face. He warned with a dark expression, “You have to take good care of the brat and yourself when I’m not around. Don’t fall for another person if you see that he’s more handsome than me, and don’t listen to Qiao Yanze’s urges for you to go for matchmaking sessions, unless I really can’t come back anymore.”
Nan Zhi glared at him. “What nonsense are you talking about? There’s no one more handsome than you in this world.”
When he heard her words, the man smiled happily like a pleased child. He hugged her head, placing a kiss on her forehead. “I’m leaving.”
Nan Zhi nodded with tears in her eyes.
Mu Sihan stared at her before he ordered domineeringly, “Turn around.”
“Why?”
“I don’t want you to see my back.”
Nan Zhi glared at him. “I want to see it.”
“Then, you’re not allowed to cry.”
Nan Zhi’s face scrunched up as she glared at him like she was unhappy. “How can you be so overbearing? It’s my choice whether or not to cry!”
He caressed her hair, his eyes so dark like they wanted to pierce into her soul. “I don’t like it when women cry, especially my woman. I’ll be sad.”
Nan Zhi sniffled, saying in a low and muffled voice, “Alright, then I won’t cry. You should go! You must come back in victory!”
Mu Sihan turned around, not looking at her anymore, as if he would not leave anymore if he did.
Nan Zhi stared at his tall back, sniffling as her eyes welled with tears. She cupped her mouth, suppressing her emotions with all she could.
Can’t cry, she can’t cry.
It was not like he wasn’t going to come back!
She had seen his intelligence and shooting skills before.
He would definitely come back safely and victoriously!
Mu Sihan walked to the door, unable to stop himself from turning back to glance at the woman who was still standing there.
Under the golden sunlight, the woman who was wearing a light colored thin coat, tight fitting jeans and had her brown colored hair tied up into a ponytail, was staring at her with her slightly trembling body. Her bright face were like clouds, looking as eye-catching as she did when he first saw her back in Ning City. However... he furrowed his eyebrows tightly when he saw the suppressed tears in her eyes.
Yi Fan had already pulled the door opened for Mu Sihan, but Mu Sihan did not get on. Instead, he ran back towards Nan Zhi.
Nan Zhi stared blankly at the man who was supposed to leave, but returned to her side. She blinked her long eyelashes. “What’s wrong? I didn’t cry.”
With that, the man lifted her chin and leaned down at the same time, kissing her scarlet, soft lips.
Nan Zhi’s tears finally fell uncontrollably.
This time, she did not care if she was in public or not, as her hands curled around her shoulders as she returned the kiss.
