“You don’t want to?”

Qian Lan quickly shook her head.

After receiving Qian Lan’s response, Zichen returned to his room and made space on half his bed.

Qian Lan froze as she lay down beside Zichen. But, the couple had their backs turned to each other and did not say a word. It wasn’t until Qian Lan almost fell asleep that Zichen finally said, “Seeing you again after 5 years, I’m not sure how to face you.”

“But, I don’t want to let go and watch you leave. When I see you, I hate you, but when I don’t see you…”

“I miss you…”

“I don’t know what I want. Qian Lan, I want to start afresh, but I can’t get myself to trust you, do you understand?”

After saying this, Zichen fell silent. He had revealed his innermost thoughts to Qian Lan.

Meanwhile, tears began to fall from Qian Lan’s eyes after she heard what he said, “In your heart, I must be a woman that comes and goes as she pleases.”

“I know I was the one that broke up with you 5 years ago, but during these 5 years, I haven’t lived a single day without feeling regret!”

“I know you must hate me and blame me for what happened, but…during my time in the military, only the thought of you helped me push forward and continue living.”

“Zichen, it’s OK if you want to blame me, I can wait for you. I’m right by your side now. You can hate me and scold me all you want, I won’t leave you ever again.”

After saying this, Qian Lan wr*pped her arms around Zichen, “I will always be by your side.”

Inside the dark room, Zichen opened his eyes slightly, but after sighing, he closed them again and dived back into the endless darkness…

His soul, which had been floating around for a long time, felt like it had finally planted its feet firmly on the ground and he felt stable at last.

…

Early the next morning, Qian Lan woke up to find that Zichen was already out of bed, but the sun wasn’t even up yet and his side of the bed was cold as though he had been up for a long time already.

5 years ago, things were very similar; she remembered how Zichen often returned home at dawn. With this thought, Qian Lan put on her military uniform and headed off to the army base on her own.

The words that Zichen said the previous night may have been painful to hear, but he at least spoke his heart.

Qian Lan never knew that Zichen had such little faith in their relationship.

After arriving at the base, she decided to temporarily forget everything that Zichen said to her. So, her performance during training was more brutal and powerful than usual.

“Is Instructor Qian experiencing menopause? She’s training us like we’re not human,” the newly enlisted soldiers complained to each other.

They had nowhere to vent their suffering.

“Who would want a woman that’s so ruthless?”

“I heard she’s almost 27 and she still doesn’t have a partner.”

“Look at that fierce look on her face, who would be brave enough to accept her?”

“What are you guys chattering about? If you have so much energy, then do another 200 pull-ups,” Qian Lan growled.

“Sorry, Instructor Qian, we were wrong!”

“No negotiations. Stand up,” Qian Lan ordered. “Since you’ve joined the military, don’t expect this to be a comfortable experience. Comfort is left for the dead!”

Perhaps, no one expected that the slender looking Qian Lan was filled with immense power.

As an army officer, it wasn’t just her body that had been toughened over time, even her most vulnerable willpower had been strengthened.

Especially when she thought about Zichen, she was able to get through anything!

By the time Qian Lan saw Zichen again, another week had passed.

Qian Lan dragged her exhausted body home to find Zichen sitting on the sofa reading a book.

Perhaps, this was what people meant by living a peaceful life.

“You’re back,” Zichen said without lifting his head.

“Uh huh.”

Qian Lan’s voice was dull and tired.

“Have you eaten? I’ve cooked some food,” Zichen said.

In reality, Qian Lan had already eaten at the base, but when she thought about eating with Zichen, she quickly replied, “Not yet.”

“Go get changed and come back out,” Zichen said as he put down his book and finally got up from the sofa.

However, Qian Lan noticed that there was something odd about the way that Zichen walked.

“What’s wrong with your leg?” Qian Lan immediately asked.

“I accidentally knocked it against something,” Zichen replied casually.

Qian Lan looked carefully at his ankle and scanned her eyes up to the bruise on his th**h. How was this simply knocking against something? He was obviously hit by someone.

“Are you going out again tonight?” Qian Lan asked. “5 years ago, you often returned home in the middle of the night. So, I know you went out in the middle of the night last week as well…”

Zichen did not respond.

After speaking, Qian Lan walked into the bedroom and fetched the first aid kit. She then kneeled down in front of him, “I’m really good at treating injuries like this. Sit down.”

Zichen looked down and noticed the worried look on Qian Lan’s face.

“Sit.”

Zichen was a little surprised as he retreated two steps and sat back down on the sofa.

“How many days haven’t you left the house?” Qian Lan asked; she noticed the r*bbish bins hadn’t been emptied for a few days. “Have you not left the house after you got injured?”

Zichen nodded.

“If you want to put on an act, then why let me discover this?” Qian Lan lifted Zichen’s leg and noticed all the various injuries he had.

Qian Lan was speechless as she placed her cheek against his leg and began to cry.

“You’ve had some of these injuries for 10 years, haven’t you?”

Zichen did not give an explanation. He simply felt something tug at his heart as it filled with emotions.

“Why do you have so many injuries? Why?”

Finally, Zichen reached out his hand and wiped away the tears on Qian Lan’s cheeks, “Weren’t you treating my injuries? Why are you crying instead?”

Qian Lan sobbed as she took a deep breath to calm down, “I didn’t know that you had so many injuries on your body.”

“I’m used to it,” Zichen continued to keep his identity a secret.

He had signed a confidentiality agreement and couldn’t tell anyone, not even the people closest to him.

“Fine, I won’t ask anything. But, from now on, whenever you get hurt, make sure you tell me, OK?” Qian Lan pulled out a bottle of Iodophor to help sterilize Zichen’s wounds.

“Are you worried about me?”

“Uh huh,” Qian Lan nodded firmly. “Don’t you know that I worry about you? This makes my heart ache! I can’t breathe looking at these injuries! I feel like I’m suffocating!”

As he looked at the teary-eyed Qian Lan, Zichen couldn’t resist gently leaning over and placing a k**s on her l*ps.

At first, Qian Lan was a little surprised. But, slowly, she began to close her eyes…

Zichen didn’t know why he was being impulsive; he simply didn’t want to see Qian Lan cry. 5 years ago, when she cried, his heart softened for her. Now, 5 years later, the same thing happened.

“Stop crying!”

Qian Lan stopped crying, but she couldn’t hold back her sobs.

Zichen watched as Qian Lan helped him apply medicine to his wounds, but he did not say another word. Wounds like this were normal for him, but for Qian Lan, it was a huge shock.

“What department are you in? The special forces? Or is it a secret organization?”

“Don’t ask me anything, it’s of no benefit to you,” Zichen said before he stood up from the sofa. “Besides, these injuries are nothing. After all, the biggest injury is the one you gave me.”

“I’m sorry,” Qian Lan replied. “I’m honestly sorry, but the mistake has already been made and I’ve already been punished for 5 years because of it, Zichen…”

“While you punished yourself, you also punished me.” After speaking, Zichen entered the kitchen; he promised that he’d make dinner.

That night, the couple sat quietly at the dining table. Qian Lan looked at Zichen while he had his head down and said, “I will try my best to be a good wife.”

Zichen did not reply immediately. Only after he finished eating, did he say to Qian Lan, “If you want to become a good wife, then you should wash the dishes.”

Qian Lan was a little surprised as she nodded her head, “OK.”

Qian Lan was ecstatic, even though Zichen only gave her a slight response.

As bedtime hit, the couple entered the bedroom one after the other. When Qian Lan noticed Zichen was already lying in bed, her cheeks flushed red because he had no shirt on.

But, when she approached and saw the scars on his body, her eyes almost turned red again.

Afterwards, the couple lay together in bed. Qian Lan gently touched a scar on Zichen’s back and imagined how much pain he was in when he received the injury.

“If you keep touching, something bad is going to happen. Go to sleep,” Zichen’s voice traveled into her ears. But, she did not feel threatened by these words. Instead, she moved her l*ps towards his back and gently k**sed the scar.

Zichen froze. A moment later, he turned around and looked at Qian Lan. Their gaze met as a countless amount of emotions flooded their eyes…

“I already warned you!” Zichen suddenly trapped Qian Lan bet**en his arms and p**ssed her beneath his body.

“You’re…injured!” Qian Lan reminded.

“Don’t underestimate me.” Underneath the blankets, Zichen’s hands quickly removed the pajamas on Qian Lan’s body. But, as he ran his hands across her body, he did not feel any desire to k**s her.
