Chapter 308 Her Mission
“Sui Su, Shen Weiyang never considered so many things before accompanying me on an adventure.”
Leng Huaijin didn't want to say more about this, but if he didn't make it clear, Sui Su would obviously not give up.
"She said it was like a moth to a flame, that is, cutting off all retreat routes. No matter what the outcome was, she would not regret it. At that time, she was not sure how much I loved her. She just didn't want me to be alone and wanted to be with me."
Sui Su stood there, looking embarrassed.
She already knew that Shen Weiyang had severed ties with the Lu family for Leng Huaijin, but she felt that she did so entirely because she had Leng Huaijin as a fallback.
If she stayed in the Lu family forever, her future marriage partner would never be better than Leng Huaijin.
But she didn't expect that Shen Weiyang didn't know whether she could be with Leng Huaijin at that time?
If she still fails to pursue Leng Huaijin after breaking off relations with the Lu family, wouldn't that be a waste of time?
To put it bluntly, her situation then was the same as my current situation.
But she made a choice that she couldn't make.
"It seems I lost."
Sui Su smiled sadly, with tears in her eyes.
"I really can't do what she did, Brother Huaijin, I'm sorry."
She couldn't sever ties with her family, nor could she risk bringing harm to her family by going with him on the mission of the Paradise Feast.
She used to think she could do it, but at the last moment, seeing her mother's tears, her father's sighs, and her brother's scolding, she backed off.
After all, she couldn't give up everything and stay with him without expecting any results.
She wasn't that brave, nor did she love him that much.
"Brother Huaijin, take care of yourself. I really want to see you again in the imperial capital. Even if there is no possibility for us to meet again in the future, I still want you to be well."
She took a step forward and hugged him tightly, her voice choked with sobs.
This was the man she fell in love with at first sight when she was young, and he was a dream that was out of her reach.
Now that the dream is over, it’s time for her to wake up.
"Third Master, you are looking for me..."
At this time, unfortunately, Shen Weiyang, who looked very dashing in black, came in.
The smile on his face froze before it could fully show itself.
Leng Huaijin immediately pushed Sui Su away.
Sui Su was also a little embarrassed. She told Leng Huaijin to be well and then left.
Shen Weiyang suppressed her displeasure and looked at Leng Huaijin as if nothing had happened: “Is there something that the Third Master wants me to do?”
A year later, she was more capable than before, indeed like a sharp blade that had been honed to a cold edge.
And his temperament gradually settled down, becoming even colder and deeper than before, making it difficult for people to guess what he was thinking.
He handed her the pistol in his hand: "Take it with you tomorrow."
Shen Weiyang raised her eyebrows slightly and asked him before taking it: “Did the Third Master personally transform this?”
Leng Huaijin: "Yes."
A familiar smile that he hadn't seen in a long time appeared on her face: "Thank you."
She took the pistol and studied it carefully, her eyes full of cherishment.
Leng Huaijin looked at her gentle brows, his heart moved, and the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time finally broke out at this moment.
He pulled her over and pressed her into his arms, his chin resting firmly on the top of her head: "Weiyang, I'm sorry."
As the top scholar in the imperial capital and a darling of heaven, she should have had a better and more comfortable life.
If she hadn't met him, the trajectory of her life would never have been distorted like this.
Over the past year, she, like the others under his command, has been training desperately, constantly challenging her physical limits and accepting his strict demands.
He saw her suffer, but he couldn't even give her a hug.
Now, holding her tightly, holding her so fragile, he just wanted to hide her here and not let her leave to do such a dangerous thing.
"Did the Third Master comfort Sui Su in the same way just now?"
Shen Weiyang asked in a rather sour tone.
Leng Huaijin was afraid that she wouldn't ask, so when she was asked, he immediately explained: "Don't get me wrong, she's giving up and came to say goodbye to me."
So that's how it is.
Shen Weiyang slowly put her arms around his waist, lying tightly in his arms, feeling his heartbeat.
She was not surprised by Sui Su's withdrawal.
Sui Su's situation was the same as hers, or even more difficult than hers.
She had no feelings for the Lu family to begin with, and even held some resentment because of her father's affairs, so it was easy for her to sever ties.
But Sui Su is different. The Sui family raised her with great care and pampering, and she would not easily give up for a man.
"Don't you believe it? I didn't expect her to hug me just now. When I wanted to push her away, you were already here."
Leng Huaijin asked cautiously, his trembling tone sounding quite interesting.
Shen Weiyang hadn't been so close to him for a long time. She was already satisfied with having a hug before leaving. How could she care about such a small matter?
Although I felt very uncomfortable when I first saw it, after I came to my senses, I knew that there was nothing possible between Leng Huaijin and Sui Su.
She had experienced what this man was like and how cold his temperament was before. If it was possible with Sui Su, he would not have waited until now.
"Third brother, I'm not jealous. I know you uphold male virtues and will not let me down."
She stood on tiptoe and kissed his thin lips, then looked at him lovingly and asked.
"Third Master, can I kiss you?"
Leng Huaijin was amused by the girl and flicked her forehead lovingly: "You've already kissed me, why are you still asking?"
After saying that, he kissed her on the side of her face and carried her to sit on the sofa.
"Let's get down to business first."
Shen Weiyang punched his strong chest, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Then Third Master, put me down first, aren't we talking about business?"
It's not like you can talk about serious matters while sitting on someone's lap.
Leng Huaijin refused to let go and rubbed her neck like a spoiled child: "You can say that."
It had been a year since he had been this close to her, and he was reluctant to let go.
No one can control what fate will be like after tomorrow.
Right now, he just wanted to hold her tightly and stay by her side, even if it was just for one more second.
"It's not a very complicated matter and can be explained in a few words, but it might be a little difficult to do."
Although the two of them were now in an intimate posture, Leng Huaijin's tone was still stern.
Shen Weiyang felt that what he was about to say was definitely not an easy thing: “You say.”
Leng Huaijin: "The mission of stealing the list and dealing with those high-ranking officials has nothing to do with you. You have more important tasks."
Shen Weiyang: "What mission?"
Leng Huaijin: "Find Shi Yan."
"Tokihiko?"
When she heard the name, Shen Weiyang widened her eyes and looked at Leng Huaijin in disbelief.
"He's not. Didn't he already..."
Leng Huaijin looked at her seriously and said, "There's an 80% chance that he's still alive, and he's at the Paradise Feast."
