She suddenly recalled the day before when he suddenly appeared, drew his gun, and shot the thug. At that moment, everything in the world seemed to have lost its color, and all she could see was his resolute and dashing figure.
She just stared at him, unblinking, until he grew increasingly nervous and uneasy, not understanding why. She couldn't help but curl her lips, her smile deepening. She felt that he was indeed, in every way, quite good.
"Captain Fu, do you... want to date me?" Qi Yalan asked directly, without beating around the bush.
Although, her heart was beating very fast, thump thump, and her ears were burning.
Fu Yunzheng was no more frightened than she was. Almost instantly, his face flushed crimson. His eyes were a little flustered, and he seemed to not dare to look at her at all.
But he didn't deny it. Almost subconsciously, he nodded slightly, which was considered an admission.
He was a grown man, but he was even more nervous than her. Suddenly, Yi Yalan wanted to laugh.
"I... I do have this idea." Fu Yunzheng's voice was a little trembling, but he was a grown man after all. He simply mustered up his courage and looked at Qi Yalan nervously: "Doctor Qi, I wonder... what you think?"
It was rare to see Fu Yunzheng so nervous that he was a little incoherent. The corners of Fu Yalan's mouth curled up slightly, with a hint of smile in her eyes, and her face flushed. She lowered her eyes, not daring to look at him, and only said: "I... I think you are quite good, let's see how you perform."
After she finished speaking, she seemed a little unhappy and took a few quick steps forward. Fu Yunzheng fell behind her, his face filled with incredible ecstasy.
He knew that Yi Yalan was willing to give him a chance, so it all depended on his performance. Fu Yunzheng grinned, perhaps unaware of how foolishly he was grinning. He hurried after the slender figure in front of him, his body and mind filled with the greatest joy he had ever experienced.
The journey back home to the family compound was not too far, but they obviously slowed down their pace, walking and chatting casually.
"By the way, how did you suddenly appear there yesterday?" Yi Yalan asked curiously. She knew that Fu Yunzheng did not participate in this mission yesterday.
Fu Yunzheng didn't mean to tell the truth. "Well, I was passing by there on my way back from a mission."
"Oh." Qi Yalan was a little skeptical. She glanced sideways at Fu Yunzheng beside her. Seeing that he was avoiding her gaze and didn't dare to look at her, and his whole body was showing discomfort, she couldn't help but smile.
Perhaps they both knew whether they were just passing by. Somehow, she seemed to smell the fragrance of the cold water osmanthus flowers planted by the roadside. The fragrance seemed to have a sweet taste, sweet and a little intoxicating.
With a smile on her lips, she lowered her eyes and walked quietly forward, not asking any more questions. Perhaps because they had talked, Fu Yunzheng walked side by side with her, and the distance between them gradually became closer and closer.
Even without speaking, the two of them had an unspeakable tacit understanding and were enjoying the rare time together.
After a long while, no one knew who spoke first, Xiao Yalan asked, "Is Grandpa Fu doing well recently?"
Fu Yunzheng said: "It's quite busy. I just can't sit still."
