Chapter 422: The Person He Missed Madly
It was Friday again, and it had been almost two weeks since their arrival at the border.
The soldiers serving the mission all felt that the new Chief Instructor’s presence was overwhelming.
The mission that their superiors set them out on should take about a month to complete.
Under He Niancheng leadership, they completed the task in just two weeks.
They doubted him at the start, but now, they truly respect him.
Unknowingly, the soldiers who served alongside He Niancheng slowly began to treat him as the core of their team.
He Niancheng stood in a yard in a village. With his deep-set eyes, he looked up to the sky. His gaze was so intense that he could dive into a person’s soul.
Yet, no one would ever be able to read his mind and understand what he was thinking.
He simply donned a normal military uniform. Like a pine tree standing strong against the chilly winter, he emanated an intimidating sense of elegance.
As Huo Yingcheng entered, he saw He Niancheng standing there.
“Major-general, what are you doing? Thinking about life?”
He glanced at him coldly, and he asked, “How long more before Team A completes their task?”
Huo Yingcheng was stunned and answered immediately, “Soon. It’ll probably be within the next two days. After Team A finishes up, Team B will follow. Our return to the capital will probably be brought forward by a week.”
“Everything here is pretty much done already. I have to go back first. You shall take the lead for the remaining matters.”
Hearing those words, Huo Yingcheng was stupefied. “Are you asking me to stay here alone?”
He sounded so incredulous, like a grumpy housewife who was angry about getting abandoned.
He Niancheng loosened his collars and answered without hesitation. “Yes!”
Huo Yingcheng was speechless.
F*ck, he definitely wanted to go back to meet Qingjiu!
Huo Yingcheng was right.
It had merely been two weeks, but he could feel that his yearning for that lass was penetrating him deep in his bones.
It made him feel anxious for the very first time.
It was as though he felt extremely uncomfortable when he couldn’t see her.
The mission was almost to completion and He Niancheng didn’t want to stay here any longer.
He executed his duties swiftly and likewise, he made up his mind without hesitation this time too.
After leaving Huo Yingcheng there, he flew to Xuan City and immediately booked another flight to the capital.
…
On Saturday, Gu Qingjiu left the school to meet Yu Bao’er. But it was probably her retribution for using her elder brother as an excuse.
Yu Bao’er stood her up.
Over the phone, Yu Bao’er bawled and explained how her elder brother came to the capital and forced her to visit her teachers that day. Therefore, she couldn’t meet Gu Qingjiu anymore.
Gu Qingjiu felt a little annoyed, but not angry.
Since they couldn’t meet, she might as well visit her elder brother.
Just as she was about to walk towards Yannan University, she received a call from an unknown number.
She initially thought a stranger would answer the call, but the voice over the phone sounded so familiar that Gu Qingjiu couldn’t contain her heart from beating so quickly.
“Where are you?”
His voice was deep and pleasing to the ears. It sounded like heaven.
“Chief Instructor!”
She yelled, hurriedly telling him where she was at.
“Stay there and wait.”
After he got the address, He Niancheng ended the call quickly. Gu Qingjiu waited on the spot.
Her heart was racing so quickly.
Didn’t he say he’ll only return in a month?
It had only been two weeks!
It had merely been a short ten minutes, but Gu Qingjiu grew increasingly anxious. When that familiar Jeep entered her sight, her eyes lit up.
The car pulled up by the road and when Gu Qingjiu hopped on, she immediately saw the face that she had been missing for many days.
“Chief Instructor, why are you back so soon?”
She asked, unable to control the sweetness in her voice.
He Niancheng didn’t answer and merely started the car. They then arrived in a rather secluded alley.
He reached out his hands and amidst Gu Qingjiu’s shock, he had pulled her tiny body over towards him.
He wrapped his arms around her waist and trapped her inside his embrace.
He then kissed the soft, red, and enticing lips that he had missed for a long time.
