As a result, Ji Muhan glanced at her calmly and then walked away...
Mo Qing is now truly going to have to rely on herself!
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she couldn't cry. Watching Ji Muhan's departing figure, she reached out her hand, wanting to stop her.
But in reality it is—
She gritted her teeth and, with a heavy heart, slowly slid down from the tree.
His slow movements and cautious reactions didn't seem like those of the cunning fox he usually was.
The people around couldn't bear to see her like this, especially Shen Shaolin. Seeing the usually pretentious girl so cautious, he felt a pang of sympathy and wanted to go forward to help her.
But--
There was also a burning gaze watching them intently from behind, observing their situation.
Well, now who would dare to step forward and help her?
Even though Mo Qing's movements were clumsy and frightening to watch, no one dared to step forward to help her.
When Mo Qing reached the second branch, she accidentally missed a step and almost fell.
Shen Shaolin almost lost his footing and rushed forward, even taking a step with his right foot while his hand remained in a strange posture.
Even Qi Guang, who was standing next to him, belatedly noticed Shen Shaolin's unusual behavior. He looked at Shen Shaolin's outstretched right hand hanging in mid-air with some suspicion, and his gaze lingered on Shen Shaolin's face for a few seconds with a strange look.
Fortunately, Mo Qing reacted quickly, immediately grabbing the tree tightly with both hands and then slowly sliding down.
In the middle of it, I accidentally rubbed my palms until they bled.
After a series of terrifying moments, Mo Qing finally landed safely. Ji Muhan didn't hesitate and, after confirming that Mo Qing was safe, got into the car without looking back.
The group of them sat in the military vehicle without saying a word the whole way, creating a strange and stiff atmosphere.
Mo Qing felt wronged. She was frightened by the incident, and he kept giving her a cold look and never said a word.
Are you here on a mission?
Shen Shaolin glanced at Ji Muhan, who was resting with his eyes closed. Normally, he could joke and talk freely with Mo Qing, but at this moment—
He wisely didn't respond.
"Hanhan, don't you miss me?"
"..."
"Hanhan, are you here on a mission?"
"..."
Are you going back to your unit soon?
"..."
Well, he's really angry now. He doesn't even want to look at her anymore. He just keeps his eyes closed the whole time, ignoring her as if she's invisible.
After getting out of the car, Ji Muhan completely ignored her and looked at Shen Shaolin and the others. They quickly suppressed their amused expressions and put on serious listening faces.
He said calmly, "You guys pack your things and come back to the team tomorrow night."
The implication was that they could wander around as much as they wanted until tomorrow night, as long as they didn't reveal their identities.
They all glanced at Mo Qing, who was standing next to Ji Muhan, with her hands in front of her, looking very obedient. Their eyes revealed blatantly ambiguous glances, with an intriguing expression that said, "I understand, we definitely won't bother you."
Ji Muhan got into the car again. Mo Qing was stunned for a moment, but when she saw Ji Muhan get into the car, she quickly followed him and climbed into the car as well.
"Does the captain mean he wants us to pretend to be innocent?"
"Hmm, his couldn't be more obvious."
Liangzi adjusted his glasses with a serious expression, then suddenly realized, "No wonder the captain told me to notify the troops to send a helicopter to pick us up. I thought the captain had come up with some new trick to try out on us..."
That scared him to death!
Qi Guang asked curiously, "I wonder what the captain will be doing during this time?"
Don't they usually return to their unit immediately after completing a mission? It's rare for them to be able to rest at the mission site like this, especially since... it was their captain who gave the order.
Mengzi rolled his eyes at Qi Guang, who was always a step behind, and said irritably, "Idiot, what can you do with your girlfriend by your side?"
"...Sleep?" Qi Guang asked tentatively.
As soon as he asked the question, he felt it was unlikely; their captain really didn't seem like that kind of person.
“Foolish,” Shen Shaolin raised an eyebrow with a playful tone, “naturally, he should be properly disciplined.”
Everyone, "..."
"oh."
Well, they all understood again, pursed their lips knowingly, and couldn't suppress the smiles on their faces.
In fact—
Ji Muhan took Mo Qing to his house in Beijing, where he liked to stay for a while now and then.
Although Mo Qing didn't know why Ji Muhan had a house here and made Shen Shaolin and the others book their own rooms, this was exactly what she wanted!
This way, she can spend time alone with Hanhan.
Mo Qing entered the room on her own initiative, kicked off her shoes, and looked around barefoot.
Anyway, she left in a hurry and didn't take anything with her except her cell phone, which happened to be in her hand.
However, she soon stopped moving, because the owner of the house, Ji Muhan, looked at her calmly, as if she had silently seen enough.
Mo Qing gave him a sweet, ingratiating smile, her dimples barely visible at the corners of her mouth.
Ji Muhan's eyes darkened, and she suddenly walked over and stood very close to her, their knees almost touching.
Mo Qing looked up at him, still with that pitiful and wary look of "good luck to you".
