Chapter 31: Chapter 031 If I et You Again, I Will Miss You
After watching the movie and heading ho, stars were already dotting the sky above.
Su Shu, carrying Xiao’ai, followed the crowd out of the mall. By chance, they passed a cake shop with a rich, tantalizing aroma. Standing in front of the display, they ended up buying seven or eight different flavors of cake. By the ti they got ho, the car was filled with the sweet scent of cakes.
Occasionally hitting a red light, she turned around to see Xiao’ai’s eyes glued to the cakes, unable to look away, and she smiled knowingly.
In the car, she picked out a new song she recently liked. Under the glow of the streetlights, she drove ho at a steady pace.
The lodious music was surrounding her, and holding the steering wheel with rhythm, she lightly tapped her fingers to the beat.
Life after rebirth had not changed significantly overall, but it was already out of control in its small ways. She could feel it in her heart, shifting from anxiety to acceptance.
Facing difficulties wasn’t scary, she thought; this ti, no matter what challenges fate threw at her, she would rise to the occasion. After all, she had the experience now!
Just thinking about seeing Tang Zelin today made her lips curl up involuntarily.
He was still the sa, shining like the sun wherever he appeared, exuding warmth and a special sense of security. Yes, there was also his habit of ddling and serving the people as a soldier, just as he had in the past life.
Initially, when they first t, she was sowhat afraid of him.
She always thought that a man with such sharp eyes and a smile that seed to carry a cold, speculative scrutiny was intimidating.
After getting to know him more, it turned out that no matter how she struggled, she could never turn things around in the palm of his hand.
Sohow, he managed to make the area within a hundred ters of her off-limits to others.
The only person who had the Pass Token to co and go as he pleased was him.
An enigmatic man, from head to toe he sparked confusion and curiosity.
Not sure if it was the recollection of the scant happiness from her past life, Su Shu drove the whole way in a good mood.
That man, he could deal with anyone, from white-haired grandmothers in their seventies or eighties to babbling toddlers, always seeming to face no difficulty he couldn’t overco with a smile.
To outsiders, he might have seed very approachable. Yet, during training, the soldiers under his command complained endlessly every day, unreservedly dubbing him ‘Iron-Faced Yama’ and grumbling about him behind his back following each session.
Such a contradictory personality perfectly, unpredictably switched within one person, making her afraid of Tang Zelin back then.
It always felt like a wolf draped in sheep’s skin, patrolling his territory with ease, was dangerous no matter how you looked at it.
Plus, she had asked him why he loved being a soldier, and his answer was particularly thought-provoking.
With his hands in his pockets, he chuckled, “Because I can fight with people in a legitimate way.”
Su Shu asked again, “Just for that reason?”
“Hmm, let think about it… I can also pull a bunch of people together for a group fight every so often.”
Su Shu: “…”
She always thought he was an untad eagle. Later, she realized that even if he was an eagle, he was not haughty and untad. Every ti he soared in the sky, it was to better protect the land and people he dearly loved.
All his jokes were said with utter seriousness.
But the truly serious words were said in jest.
Like before he was deployed, he said, “Hey, protecting the country is not so lofty dream of mine. I’ll just take a quick stroll and be back to take you hunting.”
