In the distance, Gu Jin rode his sidecar motorcycle at high speed toward Qin Zheng's residence.
The sputtering sound of the sidecar engine was particularly jarring in the quiet mountains. Ye Yun couldn't help but frown. What could have happened that would cause such a rush in the middle of the night?
Gu Jin stopped the sidecar at the bottom of the slope.
Ye Yun only saw him jump off the rickshaw, walk quickly forward, and hand something to Qin Zheng.
They were too far away, and there were no lights in the courtyard. Only the dim moonlight shone on Qin Zheng and Gu Jin, making it difficult to see their figures clearly, but not what they were holding.
"Take a look."
As Gu Jin spoke, she subconsciously glanced into the house.
Just then, he saw Ye Yun looking out the window, and his expression immediately became unnatural.
Ye Yun sensed that something was amiss, but said nothing more, only smiling calmly, "Qin Zheng, it's the middle of the night, why don't you let Gu Jin come up to the room?"
"Need not!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Gu Jin retorted as if he had been stepped on.
Ye Yun raised an eyebrow.
Gu Jin realized she had overreacted and quickly smiled, "No, I didn't mean anything by it. It's just that it's the middle of the night and I can't go in. I just wanted to deliver a message to Qin Zheng, and I'll go back after that."
“It’s not safe to walk on mountain roads at midnight. Why don’t you stay here and I’ll go find Xiaohui to sleep with?”
"No, no, no..." Gu Jin panicked even more upon hearing this, and quickly looked to Qin Zheng for help.
Qin Zheng shrugged. "My wife is right. Be careful you don't run into wolves when you get home tonight."
"What wolf stuff?" Gu Jin said with a stern face, "Take a look at what I gave you before you speak!"
Qin Zheng: "..."
Gu Jin handed him an envelope, which had already been opened, and the recipient was Gu Jin.
He couldn't help but shove the envelope into Gu Jin's arms, "This is your letter, are you sure you haven't made a mistake?"
"No..." Gu Jin shoved the letter back into his hand, her voice low and urgent: "Although it's a letter for me, it's all about you. Read it before you speak!"
Qin Zheng was speechless once again.
He reluctantly took out the letter and glanced at its contents. The next second, his expression changed slightly.
"Now you know how old you are, right?" Gu Jin scoffed.
Qin Zheng grabbed him and said, "Stay tonight."
"What?"
"Stay!" Qin Zheng said sternly, shoving the letter back into his pocket before turning to report to Ye Yun.
However, Ye Yun had already come out.
She was a little hot, and as she walked over, she gently waved a bamboo fan in her hand.
Gu Jin's body stiffened.
Qin Zheng's expression also showed a hint of panic, and he subconsciously glanced at the letter in Gu Jin's arms.
Gu Jin immediately hid the letter behind her back.
Ye Yun noticed their subtle movements, glanced at their expressions, and forced a relaxed smile, "Judging from your expressions... things seem quite serious. Are you in a hurry to go back?"
Gu Jin shook her head, "No, not at all."
"oh."
Ye Yun glanced at Qin Zheng, whose deep eyes were also looking at her.
"Alright then." Ye Yun smiled, waving her palm-leaf fan as she walked down the slope toward Tian Xiaohui's house. "It's not good to walk on mountain paths at night. Let Gu Jin stay with you. I happen to have something to do with Xiaohui."
After saying that, she left.
Soon her figure disappeared into Tian Xiaohui's house. Qin Zheng stood on the slope and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Gu Jin clicked her tongue. "What use is it to you to keep me here? What do you plan to do with me?"
How to do it?
Qin Zheng reached out and lightly flicked the letter in Gu Jin's arms. "The letter is for you. Go and handle it."
"I?"
Gu Jin laughed heartily, "Qin Zheng, you think too highly of me. He said he was coming to see you and give you a surprise, and I have to play along. How am I supposed to handle this?"
The person who wrote the letter is someone of considerable importance.
He and Qin Zheng joined the team together that year, and on the first day of training, they encountered the daughter of the team leader visiting her family.
The commander's daughter was no ordinary girl; she was knowledgeable, cultured, and possessed an innate air of nobility. Just by standing there, you could tell she came from a wealthy and privileged family.
Another aspect is control.
Born into a military family, she was exceptional, possessing an air of pride and wisdom that other girls could not match.
The training grounds were fraught with danger; one unskilled soldier might miss with a grenade.
The grenade landed at Cai Manni's feet in an arc, emitting smoke. She tried to retreat, but it was too late. At the critical moment, Qin Zheng tackled her to the ground.
The explosion was deafening.
Even now, Qin Zheng still has scars on his back from being burned by mud during the explosion.
It was that tackle that made the outstanding Cai Manni remember Qin Zheng, and she would often go to the training camp to see him, making it known to everyone in the team.
Even the commander secretly asked Qin Zheng if he wanted to marry his daughter.
Qin Zheng has consistently refused.
He had no interest in romantic relationships, and when asked too many times and got annoyed, he would say that he had someone he liked back in his hometown.
"Just say I have a wife."
Qin Zheng still said.
But this time, he really does have a wife.
"Huh... do you think they'll believe that?" Gu Jin shook her head repeatedly, gloating, "With that kind of reckless, carefree attitude you used to have, everyone in the team knows you're a loner..."
Who says I'm all alone?
"Alright, alright, you're not all alone..." Gu Jin quickly changed his tune, his expression turning serious. "However, I'm not just being sarcastic, but this person isn't easy to deal with. Even if you have Ye Yun, it probably won't help. You lied before that you had a girlfriend back home, but she still thought highly of you, didn't she? If she really comes, she probably won't even consider Ye Yun. You should think about how to take care of Ye Yun first."
