Chapter 278
【Snowy_Fluffy: Such a valuable gift, I definitely can't just take it casually. I won't bind the set; it still belongs to the guild leader. The guild leader can sell it, play with it, or take it back anytime he wants!】
Also, I don't have anything valuable to give in return, so I'd like to present the guild leader with a piece of embroidery I made myself. I hope the guild leader won't find it unworthy!
Upon seeing the first sentence, He Canglin frowned; there was no reason to take back what he had given away.
Moreover, what is valuable in the eyes of others is actually free for him.
He wanted to say a few words to ease Rong Rong's burden, but when he saw Rong Rong's next sentence, he froze on the spot, unable to say another word.
Embroidery by Rong Rong herself?
For some reason, He Canglin's heart began to beat faster.
If he remembers correctly, in ancient times, it seemed that when a woman gave a man an embroidered item, it had a special meaning.
However, this is a new era.
There was no such saying, but this did not diminish He Canglin's hidden joy in the slightest.
【Snowy_Fluffy: What kind of pattern does the guild leader like?】
Rong Rong continued to press for answers.
He Canglin's fingers twitched slightly, and he finally replied with an ancient general's battle formation diagram.
After saying that, He Canglin, his face burning, continued speaking to Rong Rong.
Lin Cang: Don't feel guilty. I just thought the set had a veil that suited you well, and I happened to have one, so I gave it to you.
Once you enter the Nine Netherworld Ruins, you're one of us, especially since you're a good friend of Zhan Lou.
Protecting every member is the gang leader's responsibility. If anyone harasses or bullies you, don't hesitate to tell me!
It's like sunlight shining through the clouds, making the whole world bright and cheerful.
【Snowy_Fluffy: Wow! The guild leader is so great! (Love you!)】
Since chatting with people in the gang, Rongrong has also learned to use emojis, and often only sends emojis.
At first, Rong Rong, mindful of the gang leader's silence and seriousness, restrained herself from sending any emojis.
But now, Rong Rong has discovered that the gang leader is actually a very gentle person, and she couldn't help but send a "I love you" emoji.
There were two cartoon figures. One of them suddenly jumped into the other's arms, which was very cute.
These are the built-in emoticons in the game "Fantasy Romance," which players use almost every day.
Rong Rong didn't think anything of it, but He Canglin, who was serious and rarely chatted with people, didn't think so.
His already flushed face gradually turned red. He coughed, took a screenshot of his chat history with Rong Rong, thought for a moment, and sent it to his sister.
[He Canglin: If someone sends you a message like this, what does it mean?]
Having just finished work and preparing to go out on a date, He Wen saw the message and immediately turned around and rushed back to her seat, plopping down in her chair.
[He Wen: Brother? What is this?]
He Wen never imagined that one day she would receive a message from her brother that had nothing to do with work or their parents except for the words "come home".
[He Canglin: Someone sent me this. What's the meaning of the last animated image?]
He Wen's eyes widened as she carefully examined the screenshot He Canglin had sent. What did that picture mean? It was just a regular emoji, what else could it be?
He Wen looked puzzled and once again complained about her brother being old-fashioned and a "veteran cadre".
He's only three years older than her, but it's like he's two generations older.
That's right. As the saying goes, there's a generation gap every three years. She and her brother really do have a generation gap, but it's huge!
He Wen frowned, about to tell her brother the truth, when she suddenly remembered something and froze.
Right, she was so busy complaining about He Canglin that she didn't notice that someone could ignore her brother's stern face and send him such intimate and funny messages and emojis.
He Wen's eyes darted around, and she grinned secretly.
Her brother has been single for so long, it's about time he got a sister-in-law!
He Wen typed away with a smirk.
[He Wen: She's saying "I love you," which is basically a confession.]
He Canglin's heart stopped abruptly, followed by a rapid, pounding beat, and his ears instantly turned bright red.
When Rong Rong saw that she hadn't received a reply from He Canglin for a while, she assumed that he was busy and was about to close the chat window when she saw that at the top of the chat window, after He Canglin's name, the other party was still typing.
What's so hard to type? Why can't you get it out after all this time? Is the other person writing a long essay?
Rong Rong found it strange.
A few minutes later, the other party finally sent a message.
[Lin Cang: I accept your confession.]
What?
Rong Rong was filled with questions.
Lin Cang: I love you too.
[Snowy: No, Boss, I've never seen you before. Is there something wrong?]
Before I could even type the word "misunderstanding," the other side immediately sent me a photo.
It's an ID photo of someone wearing a uniform.
Even in his ID photo, he was still outrageously handsome.
Sharp features, deep-set eyes, thick, sword-like eyebrows, eagle-like gaze, and sculpted facial features.
It makes the other person both handsome and resolute.
Even in the photo, Rong Rong could feel the other person's imposing aura, like a beast poised to pounce, ready to burst through the paper at any moment.
"What a joke!" Rong Rong exclaimed softly. This was a man unlike any she had ever met before.
The other party was righteous and awe-inspiring, calm and reliable, yet also seemed somewhat serious and old-fashioned, appearing as an inviolable and unassailable peak.
But his abstinent and hardened appearance was so alluring, making people want to conquer him and see the inner world that was different from his outward appearance.
"Wow!" 666 exclaimed softly, "What a handsome soldier! Does the host like him?"
Despite his calm demeanor when asked "666," his face was actually contorted beyond recognition.
Jealous! Envious! Humph!
666 ran off to the dark room whimpering, not even giving Rong Rong a chance to comfort her.
Just as Rong Rong was about to speak, He Canglin sent another message.
[Lin Cang: My name is He Canglin, 27 years old, from the capital city. I have a simple family structure and one younger sister.]
I am a responsible and straightforward person. If there is anything I don't understand or anything you are not satisfied with, you can tell me at any time. I promise to respect your wishes and try my best to meet all your ideas.
The He family has a clean and upright tradition; each member of the He family marries only one wife in their lifetime, loves only one person, and stays together for life without ever betraying her.
I'm a bit busy with work, so I might not have much time to spend with you, but you can come with me to the military base.
After this leave, I'll be promoted and stay in the army, no longer going on missions. If you're with me, we can see each other every day.
After hearing this long speech, Rong Rong fell completely silent.
The gang leader is serious!
Suddenly, Rong Rong felt as if the Luoshen set she was wearing weighed a ton.
The weight was so heavy that she almost lost herself in the process.
This time, it was Rong Rong who didn't reply for a long time.
He Canglin felt uneasy and pondered for a moment before asking.
[Lin Cang: You regret it?]
Rong Rong carefully considered her words before finally replying cautiously.
[Snowy_Fluffy: Can I say it's all a misunderstanding?]
Rong Rong has now realized that He Canglin is a very straight man, and she really doesn't want to hurt him.
Rong Rong thought the other person's character and profession were both great. In addition, the other person even gave her the Luoshen set, which made her even more grateful.
Therefore, Rong Rong did not want to embarrass the other party, so she was very careful with her words and tried her best to gently resolve the misunderstanding.
However, as soon as she sent her reply, the other party initiated a video call.
