“Wang Feifei, from the first time I saw you, I couldn’t help but…miss you.”
These explosive words left Wang Feifei speechless; she had never considered Xu Neng in the context of romantic relationships.
Their first meeting was at the court hearing, where she witnessed Xu Neng's methods and felt only fear.
The second time they met by chance at the cemetery, all she could think about was running away;
The third time we met, Xu Neng caught me in the warehouse. To be honest, I was a little dazed during that meeting. Maybe I was attracted by his good looks, but I didn't dare to think about romantic feelings at all!
After all... there's still the hatred between him and Xu Neng stemming from his brother's actions...
Her thoughts had wandered far before she could barely compose herself. Wang Feifei stammered, "..."
“During the court hearing, I was dressed as an old woman, and you… sensed… that I was…”
Xu interrupted her, deliberately misinterpreting her meaning in a hoarse voice:
"Yes, I can feel it."
Wang Feifei's heart was pounding with nervousness. Was he confessing his feelings? But why did it make her heart tremble?
Thinking of Xu Neng's handsome and refined appearance, his words made her heart beat even faster!
Wang Feifei tried her best to suppress her emotions and comforted him:
"Hehe... um... calm down, you must have misunderstood, it's not what you think. You're just curious about me at most, maybe... you're overthinking it... mistaking it for liking..."
Wang Feifei wanted Xu Neng to come to his senses quickly, so she continued, "Besides, no matter how cold-blooded you are, Xu Hui is still your brother..."
Xu Neng's face grew increasingly dark. The word "cold-blooded" sounded especially harsh coming from Wang Feifei's mouth. His mood suddenly plummeted, and he said in a flat tone:
"The relationship between Xu Hui and me is not what you imagine. Every word I just said was sincere."
"..."
"Do you remember our promise from last time?"
"What agreement?" Wang Feifei paused, searching her memory for a long time before finally recalling:
"Is this...the courthouse entrance?"
"Yes, I'm so glad you remembered. Please keep my clothes safe. I've been looking forward to seeing you!"
"In this kind of weather... let's just forget about it..."
"I can't let it go, I remember everything. Also, don't get caught. Although I really want to see you, I don't want to 'date' you at the base."
"Okay!" Wang Feifei hung up the phone in an annoyed tone.
Xu Neng smiled helplessly. Today wasn't a complete waste of time. At least he knew she lived in the suburbs, and the Ice Society hadn't spread to the suburbs yet, which put his mind at ease.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Feifei's heart was still pounding, and the image of her and Xu Neng in the warehouse kept flashing through her mind:
He patted his own shoulder, looking intently at him, and said, "How will you repay me?"
My face is getting hotter and hotter...
She went to the bathroom to wash her face, and when she looked up, she saw that her face was bright red. She covered her face and broke down. Did she really have different feelings for Xu Neng?
This is outrageous!
Never mind, the power's out, and it's a disaster outside.
Wang Feifei opened the group chat again, but her mind wandered, and she couldn't remember what she had seen. Her eyes kept glancing at the wardrobe...
Xu Neng and Xiao Gao had already boarded the lead sled, and soon after, Shen Qingshan also boarded with one other person. The man behind him was none other than Chen Nian.
Based on seniority, Chen Nian shouldn't be able to follow Shen Qingshan closely. However, Shen Qingshan has other plans this time. He wants to see what kind of unusual relationship Xu Neng and Chen Nian have!
After Chen Nian joined the team, Shen Qingshan had already subtly inquired about him, but Chen Nian insisted that he did not know Xu Neng. This infuriated Shen Qingshan, who did not want to waste his efforts. He could not let this opportunity slip by.
As soon as Chen Nian got into the car, he was surprised to see Xiao Gao. He kept looking at him, trying to confirm if he was the man who had saved him back then.
Of course, none of this escaped Shen Qingshan's notice. He smiled and asked:
"What's wrong? Do you two know each other?"
Xiao Gao glanced at Xu Neng but didn't speak. Chen Nian replied:
"I don't know him, but it seems like he saved me before."
Then Chen Nian looked at Xiao Gao warmly and said, "Wasn't it you who saved me in the warehouse last time? I still don't know your name, brother?"
Xu Neng gave Xiao Gao a cold look, and Xiao Gao immediately understood. He didn't dare to say anything more, and only politely replied, "You can just call me Xiao Gao."
With the old fox Shen Qingshan present, Xu Neng didn't want to reveal too much about his relationship with Chen Nian. Fortunately, Xiao Gao was cautious and didn't say much.
"How did you end up there last time..."
Chen Nian was about to ask another question when Shen Qingshan stopped him, saying with a half-smile:
"We have a mission tonight, let's talk about making friends when we get back, right, Commander Xu?"
Xu Neng asked seriously, "Commander Shen, what is your plan for the attack tonight?"
Shen Qingshan adjusted his glasses: "Just do as the leader said, attack through the high walls, and as is customary, kill the resisters first, then collect supplies and people throughout the district."
Xu Neng gazed at the distant mountains, remaining silent for a long time. This atmosphere displeased Shen Qingshan, who finally asked:
"I wonder what insightful opinion Commander Xu has?"
"The captain of the security team at Yujing City is a difficult person to deal with and a potential threat. We need to find him first."
"Hahaha, you think he can go against us all by himself? You overestimate him. As soon as our main force goes in, we'll wipe out the security team without leaving a single survivor!"
Xu Neng looked at him coldly without saying a word.
Underestimating your opponent is also a form of foolishness!
The sleds were incredibly fast on the snow. Tonight, they had deployed their main force, a total of eight sleds and over sixty people, heading towards the city center in a grand procession…
When we arrived in the city center, it was already late at night. The city was dark and silent. Because of the power outage, all the lights were off, and we could only move forward by the reflection of the snow.
The snow had covered the height of one floor of ordinary buildings, and all obstacles on the road were covered by snow. Even the cars parked on the road were buried deep under the snow, making the road surface appear unusually wide.
It didn't take long to arrive at Yujingcheng. It's a residential area surrounded by high walls, which had become much lower due to the snow.
It turns out that Xiao Liu's judgment was correct. Considering the situation on the ground, choosing a breakthrough point through the high wall was indeed a wise move!
