"I love you."

The voice behind her was hoarse with lingering desire, each word seemingly trying to penetrate her heart.

It's said that men are never stingy with sweet words when it comes to this kind of thing.

But when he said it, it didn't sound fake at all.

Nanzhi looked at his love level, which had reached 100%, and knew that what he said was true.

In the past, she might have already turned around sweetly and responded to his love.

Right now, she just stays silent, closing her eyes and pretending not to hear.

He didn't force her to respond, but gently stroked the top of her head and held her contentedly.

At first, Nanzhi slept with her back to him, but in the middle of the night, she unknowingly snuggled into his arms.

She didn't know that she had actually been like this in several different dimensions.

Although I always build thick walls around my heart, they are gradually crumbling inside.

Sensing her subtle trust in him, Shen Yunjin, who had already fallen asleep, suddenly woke up again.

He stroked her small face, his eyes brighter than the stars in the night sky.

The next day, Shen Yunjin really did buy ten more cheongsams for Nanzhi, each with a different color and pattern, they were absolutely gorgeous.

Nanzhi was too lazy to change, so he asked the shop owner to bring dozens of items in her size, and then he personally picked them out for her.

It must be said that Shen Yunjin has excellent taste; he chose styles that Nanzhi liked.

Nanzhi felt it was a pity that he might tear these clothes up later.

"Okay, that's all. Wrap it up."

After Shen Yunjin finished speaking, he put his arm around Nanzhi and said in a low voice, "The cheongsam should be made to order. Time is tight, so I can only ask you to make do for now. I will take you to have it made when we get back."

Nan Zhi gave a calm "hmm" and said, "Thank you, young marshal."

Shen Yunjin said sternly, "You are not allowed to say thank you."

Seeing his unhappy expression, Nan Zhi's eyes crinkled into a smile. "I'll say it anyway, Young Marshal, you're not going to treat me like one of your soldiers, are you?"

Shen Yunjin pinched her cheek helplessly, his tone indulgent, "I can't bear to."

He put his arm around her and led her outside.

Shen Yunjin had already informed the officers in Guangchuan that she was leaving, and had bought tickets for 5 p.m.

They originally wanted to give him a ride, but Shen Yunjin didn't agree.

Firstly, he doesn't like making small talk with people.

Secondly, Nan Zhi's appearance was too conspicuous, so he kept it a secret from her, and only one trusted confidant knew about it. He dared not take the risk.

However, the journey back was long, and once she arrived, it would be difficult to hide her appearance from Shen Zhencai.

But he was constantly worried about leaving her here.

Shen Yunjin was pondering a solution and was somewhat absent-minded during lunch.

Nanzhi knew what he was worried about, and after dinner, she took his hand and went into a men's clothing store.

Shen Yunjin was initially delighted, thinking she was going to buy him clothes, but then she picked out a small size.

Although he was happy that she remembered him, he really couldn't fit into the clothes. He didn't want them to fall apart when he put them on, so he couldn't help but remind her, "I might need the largest size."

Nanzhi held up the clothes: "I didn't buy this for you."

Shen Yunjin narrowed his eyes: "Who was that bought for?"

"Guess." Nan Zhi smiled at him, took the clothes, and went into the changing room.

Shen Yunjin didn't realize what she was going to do; her mind was filled with her "Guess."

Who exactly did she buy it for?

Such a small size, could it be that skinny, effeminate Wen Xuyang?

Shen Yunjin could only think of so much, and the more she thought about it, the angrier she became. When she came to her senses, she realized that Nanzhi was gone.

He looked around but couldn't find her. Frustrated, he grabbed the clothing seller and asked, "Did you see that very pretty girl who was next to me just now?"

The man was also confused, and shook his head to indicate that he hadn't seen it.

Shen Yunjin searched anxiously, inwardly blaming himself for his distraction.

Did she run away again?

But she clearly promised to go back with him.

Various thoughts flashed through my mind, but more than blame, I felt worried.

He was afraid that something might happen to her.

Just as he was about to leave the clothing store to look for something, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Hey, where are you going?"

Shen Yunjin paused, turned around, and saw a short boy wearing a hat standing not far from him.

He frowned, about to look away to find Nanzhi, when his peripheral vision caught the boy's delicate face and he suddenly stopped.

It's her!

He strode over, grabbed her shoulder, and looked her over carefully.

It really is her.

"Did you guess it?" Nan Zhi smiled smugly. "Judging from your expression, you didn't guess it."

Shen Yunjin pulled her into his arms and held her tightly, "You scared me, I thought..."

Nan Zhi chuckled softly, "Did you think I ran away again?"

Shen Yunjin held her tightly, as if he wanted to pull her into his body, his voice still trembling: "Don't scare me like that again."

Nan Zhi felt a little uncomfortable from being strangled and wanted to ask him to loosen his grip, but upon hearing this, she fell silent, nestled obediently in his arms, and smiled slightly, "Okay."

Shen Yunjin then released her and looked at her attire again. Apart from her face, she looked exactly like a boy. He almost didn't recognize her if he hadn't been paying attention.

So, was her dressing up like this because she was thinking of Shen Zhencai?

"What are you standing there for? Pay up."

Nanzhi poked his abs.

Shen Yunjin realized that she really wouldn't run away anymore, and he was excited. He took her hand and walked to the counter.
