Because Aunt Zhang needs so ti to wake up, you deliberately transferred her to a premium ward and arranged for a caregiver to take care of her. Yao Shuilan was unwilling to leave Aunt Zhang, so you let her stay in the ward; after all, the premium ward also accommodates the children.
You left Cen Nong’s phone number for Yao Shuilan and told her to be sure to find her.
When you opened the ward door, you saw Yao Shuilan behind you kneel down again, bowing three tis.
Sighing lightly, you closed the door.
Leaving the hospital, you hesitated about where to go. Although you had promised Cen Nong to visit her, and in your heart, you very much wanted to see her, it sohow felt inappropriate, as it seed rather petty.
Sitting in the car, undecided, the phone in your pocket rang. You took a look; it was Cen Nong calling.
With Cen Nong’s call, she explained that her mother’s health was not well, and as a filial daughter, she naturally had to take care of her elderly mother.
After hanging up the phone, although you still felt sowhat regretful, you breathed a long sigh of relief.
You deliberately drove to Cen Nong’s residence in the city, but you didn’t go inside. Instead, you called her out.
When Cen Nong ca out of the room, you noticed a small head stealthily hiding by the window sill. A closer look revealed it was Cen Panxia.
At this ti, you still looked like Li Jiu. Seeing Cen Panxia wave at you, she walked away under Cen Nong’s glare.
"Leaving soon?"
You nodded, as you really didn’t know how to face Cen Nong.
To be honest, you didn’t dislike Cen Nong; more than anything, you had a sense of longing.
Before soone like Cen Nong, who was a full cycle older than you, you felt like a child, or perhaps a younger brother. Previously, while pretending to be Li Jiu, you hadn’t paid much attention to Cen Nong. At that ti, she just seed like one of the many female leaders, having little to do with you. Once the mission ended, you would part ways.
However, after these close encounters, you found that you couldn’t ignore her existence no matter what. Although you couldn’t rember what happened back then, for so reason, when facing Cen Nong now, you always felt a budding emotion between the two of you.
Seeing you remain silent, Cen Nong tightened her coat collar and said to you, "Accompany for a walk."
"But Auntie’s health..."
"It’s okay, my mom took her dication and is already asleep."
As the bright moon hung high, you and Cen Nong walked slowly, side by side. You didn’t walk too far, just around the small paths near Cen Nong’s house.
This was a relatively secluded upscale community with villas, row houses, and condominiums.
"When will you be back?"
"I don’t know yet; I’ll have to decide based on the situation."
Cen Nong stopped walking, pulled your right arm, and looked at you firmly: "Mu Yun, I have given my most precious thing to you, and I will never look for another man in this lifeti."
"I..."
Cen Nong placed her finger on your lips and smiled gently: "Listen to first."
You nodded.
"No matter what happens in the future, Elder sister only hopes that you’ll still think of during your free ti. When you have a mont, co see , okay?"
Seeing the glimr of tears in Cen Nong’s eyes, your head heated up, and you instinctively pulled her into your arms, holding her tightly.
"Sister Jun, although I can’t give you much, I swear, as long as I’m alive, I will protect you from any harm!"
Cen Nong didn’t say anything but stood on tiptoe and offered you a warm kiss.
You embraced each other tightly, your hearts seemingly rging truly at this mont.
In the end, you left. After exiting the community, you took a cab back to Furong District, briefly packed your luggage, taking a small parcel, preparing to leave for Jingning overnight.
You still didn’t dare to go ho, couldn’t face your parents, nor your elder sister, Li Qiyi.
Just as you stepped out of Furong District, two glaring lights suddenly shone from the opposite direction. Shielding your forehead with your hand, you sidestepped a few steps, and saw a Mulan SUV parked not far ahead.
This brief encounter with Wei Yingyue was unexpected.
Not thinking much, you directly went forward and opened the car door, throwing your travel bag in the back trunk, and sat in the passenger seat.
Wei Yingyue turned to look at you, asking, "Mission completed?"
"One wave just cald, another arises."
Upon hearing this, Wei Yingyue frowned slightly, asking, "Another new mission?"
"Yes, departing tomorrow for Jingning."
"You’re not deliberately avoiding , are you?" Wei Yingyue intentionally remarked.
"You’re not so venomous beast; why would I avoid you?" You chuckled, adjusting your seat to a comfortable position.
Wei Yingyue looked at you again, feeling you had undergone so change, yet couldn’t pinpoint what exactly.
"When will you be back?"
"Not sure, probably spending the New Year outside. This mission is quite special, and the higher-ups asked to assemble a new Special Forces team."
Upon hearing this, Wei Yingyue’s previously dim eyes suddenly flickered as if she were lost in thought.
You looked at Wei Yingyue and asked, "Could you take to the station?"
"It’s so late; there might not be a vehicle to Jingning. Since I am free, I’ll take you there myself."
"It’s too far; even though I’m fine driving there, once returning, you driving as a girl wouldn’t be safe."
Wei Yingyue chuckled and said, "Rare of you to worry about my safety."
"The way you say that, I do usually care about you, don’t I?"
"Is that so?" Wei Yingyue deliberately stared at you.
Normally, you might feel sowhat guilty, but today you faced Wei Yingyue quite calmly.
Previously, you were troubled by her existence, but now any headache had long been felt. For you, having one more Wei Yingyue wouldn’t be too much trouble; they’re all headaches anyway!
This kind of fortune, others pray to gods and Buddha for, yet can’t attain.
Besides, you have a feeling that those entangled with your emotions must be your won; can’t let yourself be cuckolded in this world, right?
"Should we leave now?"
"Yes."
"Alright." Wei Yingyue stepped on the gas, and the Mulan SUV made a smooth turn, quickly heading onto the main road.
You looked at Wei Yingyue and asked, "Are you really going to drive?"
"I always an what I say."
"Alright," you shrugged, "after a busy day, I’m quite tired; I’ll take a nap."
"Sleep, I’ll directly take you to Grandpa Du."
