Zhou Hua was in the middle as he looked at Lin Hong curiously, he could tell he noticed something else apart from the ones he spoke out.
Zhou Hua narrowed his eyes on him, Lin Hong felt that piercing stare but didn't turn around but rather walked ahead leisurely, he knew who it belonged to.
Lin Wei who was soundly sleeping woke up, it was already early morning and she needed to get going, she freshened up as she wrapped her hair into a bun.
She patted her black robe trying to align it well since she didn't carry any clothes to change, she walked downstairs to the restaurant to have some breakfast, they needed to hit the road.
She arrived down and saw Bai Yun who was already set and waiting, she joined him as she sat down, the innkeeper hurriedly served her, he didn't want her to create another commotion.
"Good morning Bai Yun, do they have a map?" She inquired as she began eating the pancakes.
" Nope, they don't have, we will try in another inn maybe." He responded as he sipped his tea.
" We are not resting in any inn, we have to hurry up, he doesn't have much time and we don't have the luxury of enjoying around." She declined his suggestions even now she wouldn't have rested in the inn if it wasn't for hunger.
"But Miss that mountain is dangerous, going there blindly won't guarantee us success." He felt worried, if they rushed in they might never survive.
" I can go alone." Lin Wei could see his hesitation, war was around the corner, there will be battles, she wanted to save his life before she can begin working on her mission.
"I'm done here." She stood up after leaving a couple of coins on the table.
Bai Yun could see how determined and serious she was, he held her hand as their figures vanished through the entrance door.
The Innkeeper walked over and took his payment before clearing the table.
In the Tuna village Camp Eagle and his shadow guards had finished inspecting and found two other suspicious figures.
They knocked them out and took them down into the cells, it was already in the early morning at 3am when the soldiers woke up to train.
"Luo Feng, Luo Cheng, train them, I feel really exhausted after moving around the entire day, I will rest for two hours before I join you guys. " His bloodshot eyes spoke everything.
He looked fatigued and exhausted, they excuse him as he went down to his resting quarters but what surprised him she saw a woman bundled up in his bed, as her head poked out of the covers.
He has never liked anyone invading his private place or territory, he turned around as he decided to rest in Scorpion's room.
"Eagle." Before he could walk out, that soft and mellow voice called, the female soldier recruit had heard footsteps as she woke up and sat up.
"What are you doing in here?" His cold and ruthless voice questioned her.
"I.. I... I.." she stammered as she panicked, she hadn't expected him to be so cold, he was a man after all.
"By the time I come back, you better have vanished with those beddings you used. " His cold voice faded as he disappeared towards the corridor.
The soldier recruit lightly frowned, her friend had told her this method can work but no, the man didn't even spend a second on her nor look at her.
She stood up as she carried the bedsheets and went back into her hostel.
Eagle feeling annoyed walked forward as his heavy footsteps sounded on the corridor, Gao Ling who was walking along the corridor from the opposite direction bumped into each other.
Eagle wanted to reprimand the person but he knew they all played a part and were wrong.
"I'm sorry Master." Gao Ling stabilize herself and apologized when she saw it was Eagle.
Eagle looked at the woman infront of him and raised his eyebrow curiously, 'why is she scared of me?'
Gao Ling felt nervous when she felt his piercing look, "I didn't mean it Sir." She apologized again.
" Hehehe.. you really are funny little one, what wrong are you apologizing for?" He leaned against the wall as he looked at her, his interest piqued.
Surprised, she raised her head to look at the person who found the situation funny, but that smile was intoxicating and mesmerizing.
She openly stared at him dazed with that smile that was so enticing.
"Dear nurse, what's up with that look? Don't tell me it's your first time seeing me! " He lightly smirked, he never knew someone could stare at him so openly.
"Aaahh...!" Surprised, she woke up from her stupor as she lightly blushed.
"Your eyes are bloodshot, you haven't slept today?" She worriedly inquired.
"Yeah I guess terrible habits as of late I have alot of work and insomnia. " He lightly frowned, of late he has been having less and less sleeping hours.
"Oohhh, I actually do have a incense that can make you relax and sleep soundly, I can bring it over to your room. " She said but bit her tongue as she felt she was poking a bee nest.
"Ooohh, why not? Let's go, I can rest in your room, mine is being cleaned up." He found the perfect opportunity to manipulate his way around.
" Sure." She embarrassedly responded as she remembers how she had left her room in a mess.
She began walking as Eagle tagged behind her, "Miss, isn't this abit early to wake up?" He inquired curiously.
"Not really, I'm in charge of emergencies from 3am until mid morning." She politely responded while walking ahead.
" That's good." She really was hardworking, very few found the luxury of being up at this hour.
They arrived at her room, it was messed up as clothes laid all over, he raised his eyebrow curiously.
"I'm sorry to have you see this kind of situation." She hurriedly picked up her clothes and placed them inside the laundry packet.
"It's okay don't worry." He laid down on bed, as he covered himself.
"I haven't made the bed yet." She spoke out after seeing him laying on bed.
"You don't need to be so formal with me, just do your own things." With his eyes closed he responded.
