Seeing Qian Lan's teary eyes, Mo Zichen couldn't help but place a kiss on her lips.
Qian Lan was stunned at first. Then, she slowly closed her eyes …
Mo Zichen didn't know why he was being so impulsive, but he didn't want to see Qian Lan cry. 5 years ago, when she cried, his heart softened. 5 years later, when she cried, his heart still softened.
"Don't cry!"
Qian Lan stopped crying, but she still couldn't help but sob.
Mo Zichen watched as Qian Lan helped him apply medicine, but he did not say a word. To him, these injuries were nothing more than normal. But, to Qian Lan, it was a huge shock.
"Which department? Special forces? Or some secret organization? "
"Don't ask anything. It won't do you any good." After speaking, Mo Zichen stood up from the sofa. "Plus, these injuries are nothing. After all, you were the one who gave me the most serious injuries."
"Sorry." "I'm really sorry, but I've already made a mistake and I've already been punished for 5 years. Zichen …"
"While you're punishing yourself, you're also punishing me." After speaking, Mo Zichen headed into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
That night, the couple sat quietly at the dining table. Qian Lan looked at Mo Zichen's lowered head and said, "I'll try to be a good wife."
Mo Zichen did not respond. After he finished eating, he said to Qian Lan, "Since you're a good wife, go and wash the dishes."
Qian Lan was a little surprised as she nodded her head, "OK."
Qian Lan was happy, even if it was just a slight response from Mo Zichen.
That night, the couple entered the bedroom one after another. When Qian Lan saw Mo Zichen lying on the bed, her face turned slightly red because he was half-naked.
But, when Qian Lan approached and saw the scars on Mo Zichen's body, her eyes almost turned red.
Afterwards, the couple lay down on the bed and Qian Lan gently stroked the scars on Mo Zichen's back. She imagined how painful it must have been for him to suffer these injuries.
"If you keep touching, something bad is going to happen. Go to sleep." Mo Zichen's voice drifted into Qian Lan's ears, but it did not intimidate Qian Lan. Instead, she inched closer to Mo Zichen's back and gently placed a kiss on the scars.
Mo Zichen's body stiffened as he turned to look at Qian Lan. Their eyes met and an indescribable feeling flowed through them …
"I've already warned you!" Mo Zichen suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed Qian Lan between his arms and pressed her down.
"You … you're injured!" Qian Lan reminded.
"You underestimate me." Mo Zichen's hands reached under the covers and removed her pajamas. But, as his hands wandered across her body, he had no desire to kiss her.
Because the obstacle in his heart had not passed.
So, he helped Qian Lan adjust her pajamas and rolled over to the side, "My wound hurts."
Qian Lan's expression suddenly turned gloomy.
Soon, Mo Zichen's even breathing drifted into her ears. But, Qian Lan stood up and walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked out into the distance.
She was about to leave for a mission and she didn't know how long she would be gone for. It wasn't easy for Mo Zichen to finally open up to her. If he didn't see her for half a month, she didn't know how long it would take for him to fully open his heart.
The military was holding a competition for new recruits. As an instructor, she naturally had to be present …
So, she had to leave at 5am.
After thinking for a while, Qian Lan returned to the bedroom and knelt down beside Mo Zichen's bed. She looked at his sleeping face and gently touched his face, "I'm sorry, Zichen. I know that no matter how many times I apologize, there's still a barrier in your heart that you can't get over. I don't know what you want and I don't know how to comfort you. I want to beg for your forgiveness, but I don't know where to start. I really don't know what to do."
"As soon as 5am, I'll have to leave you again. This time, I might be gone for another week. You don't know how much I hope for a little response from you."
"Forget it, I asked for it, I don't blame you."
"I simply hope that you don't hold yourself back."
After speaking, Qian Lan got up and headed to the study room. She had no choice but to lie down beside Mo Zichen and suffer from insomnia for the entire night.
In the dark, Mo Zichen opened his eyes and rolled around in discomfort.
Silly woman, you're disturbing my sleep …
…
Just before 5am, Qian Lan woke up to find a sandwich and half a glass of warm milk on the table.
Qian Lan was a little surprised. But, when she realized who had done it, her heart was filled with joy.
Did he hear what she said the night before?
After eating breakfast, Qian Lan placed the medicine that Mo Zichen wanted on the dining table and reminded him to apply it himself.
When Mo Zichen woke up in the morning and saw the medicine, he rolled his eyes, "If intelligence agents were to use this kind of low-grade medicine, I wonder how many times they would have died from the pain."
After all, the medicine they used was specially made and couldn't be found on the market.
But, even though he said this, he still held the medicine in his hand. What he said was completely different from what he thought.
This time, Qian Lan was gone for 10 days. During these 10 days, she did not contact anyone.
Mo Zichen understood the nature of the military and knew that he wouldn't be able to reach her even if he called her. So, he decided to ignore Qian Lan.
Although Qian Lan hoped that Mo Zichen would look for her and contact her every day, it seemed, no matter how long she was gone, Mo Zichen had no interest in knowing where she was, what she was doing, or whether she was dead or alive.
In Qian Lan's hands was a photo of Mo Zichen. It was a photo that a friend of hers had given to her when they were introduced to each other at school. From the angle, it looked like it was taken secretly. Whenever she had free time, she would take it out and look at it. This action of hers had once been ridiculed by many of her comrades, "Aren't you and the man that you've been yearning for together yet?"
"We're together," Qian Lan replied.
"Then why haven't you guys contacted each other?" the woman asked nosily.
"That's right, why haven't we contacted each other?"
Qian Lan couldn't help but ask herself.
"I knew it was a one-sided love. He never agreed to be with you, right? Forget it, focus on your mission. These new soldiers are all extremely mischievous. I don't have time to think about relationships! "the woman patted her on the shoulder comfortingly.
Qian Lan smiled and put the photo away. That's right, it wasn't time to think about relationships at a time like this.
The next morning, before Qian Lan could even get out of bed, she heard someone report, "Instructor, there's a problem. A few new soldiers have entered a restricted area. There are mines in there!"
"Then what are you waiting for? Find them, hurry up and find them, "Qian Lan immediately stood up. These new soldiers were way too worrisome.
Qian Lan had no idea that on the surface, it looked like a simple training exercise, but it almost cost her her life!
