The first time I saw her was during a mission; she was secretly observing the situation outside through a crack in the door!

In that instant, those eyes were like stars in the darkness, illuminating a strange light in my heart. Though it was only a fleeting glimpse, they left a deep imprint on my mind. After completing the capture operation, I often thought of those eyes—clear and bright, filled with curiosity and a touch of naivety, as if possessing an invisible magic that drew me to explore further.

In the days that followed, the gears of fate quietly turned. While on a mission, I was betrayed, wounded, and hunted down. I thought I was going to die in that desolate wilderness!

Unexpectedly, I met her. She not only saved me, but at first I didn't know she was the girl from the hotel. I just thought she was very special—good at medicine, brave and resourceful, and so beautiful! She just didn't give me a friendly look!

Under her meticulous care, my injuries gradually improved. During my recovery, I spent more and more time with her, and I increasingly felt that she possessed a unique charm. Her decisiveness and her calmness and resourcefulness in the face of danger filled me with admiration. Although she always seemed cold towards me, I inexplicably wanted to get close to her and make her smile.

Once, I pretended to be in pain from my wound, whimpering and complaining. She rushed over, looking at me with disdain, but her eyes held a barely perceptible worry. As she carefully examined my wound, she said irritably, "You're a grown man, why are you being so dramatic? If you move around any more, you'll reopen the wound." Looking at her serious expression, I couldn't help but laugh out loud. She looked up and glared at me, a look that I found incredibly endearing.

As time went by, our interactions became more natural, and we would occasionally joke around and bicker. My feelings for her also quietly grew stronger without me even realizing it. However, I never confessed these feelings, afraid of abruptly upsetting her.

She definitely doesn't know what I'm thinking. Because of my family background, I'm a very quiet person, but after being with her, I've become much more cheerful, and my face shows a lot more emotion!

Back at the unit, my comrades were amazed by my transformation, jokingly saying I seemed to have been reborn. Before, I always had a serious and rigid demeanor, throwing myself wholeheartedly into training and missions, rarely showing a relaxed expression. Now, however, I often find myself unconsciously smiling, my eyes full of laughter, and radiating a unique kind of vitality.

During breaks between missions, I would unconsciously think of her, of the frown on her face when she looked down on me, and of the gentle smile she occasionally showed. Those images played out in my mind like a movie.

Later, because of my cousin's illness, I thought of her. I felt that she could definitely cure my cousin. Thinking this, I did just that. I immediately reported my idea to my superior, Commander Yu! Moreover, I had already found out about Lin Jin's background!

Commander Yu still trusts me. After hearing what I said, he immediately told me to go and pick up the person!

When I heard I was called to pick someone up, I was actually quite happy. Because of my cousin's illness, the tension and worry I had felt these past few days had dissipated considerably.

That's when I discovered a tremendous secret about her, though I was still very confused. Because I'm a soldier, I don't believe in superstitions, but I couldn't convince myself about Lin Jin's situation. So I pretended I knew nothing!

She was quite surprised when she saw me. I told her I wanted her to come with me, and she looked at me nervously. Seeing her cute expression, I didn't want to tease her anymore, so I just told her my purpose!
