In the dim room, only a few even breathing sounds could be heard.
Zhou Rang opened his eyes in the darkness, a trace of suppressed pain flashed in his eyes, his thin lips were pale, and the sweat on his forehead wet his hair and stuck to his skin, making him look disheveled.
The wound on his waist was still tearing his nerves, causing him to suffer inhuman torture every time he moved.
So he rejected her touch again and again, just because he didn't want her to find out something was wrong and get to the bottom of it.
Su Nan's mumbling just now flashed through Zhou Rang's mind, and he was struggling and sad in his heart. It was not that he didn't want to respond to her or comfort her. He loved her so much, how could he bear to let her suffer any grievances.
But he didn't want her to worry with him. The situation this time was more complicated than what he had encountered in Shanghai before. He must not let her know, and he must not involve her.
I'm sorry, Nan Nan. I'll tell you everything after I've dealt with all the dangerous situations.

The next morning, when Su Nan opened his eyes, Zhou Rang was no longer in the room. He didn't know when he had left, and the quilt he slept in had long lost its warmth.
Is this their first fight? No, they didn't even start a fight, they just went into a cold war for no apparent reason.
Su Nan stared at his pillow in a daze for a long time before he sighed softly, moved his body, climbed up from the bed, and walked towards the bathroom with his toiletries in a depressed mood.
After washing up, when I passed by the kitchen, I caught a glimpse of the porridge and fried dough sticks on the dining table.
At that moment, Su Nan's mood improved a little, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up.
After finishing breakfast, Su Nan left a note and took her packed luggage to get on the bus to Huiping. She had to arrive before the cultural troupe got off work in the afternoon, otherwise there would be no one to receive her.
The shuttle bus swayed as it moved forward.
Su Nan told the driver to drop her off at the stop closest to the cultural group, then she closed her eyes and took a short nap.
After getting off at the stop, Su Nan asked several people before finding the specific location of the Cultural Corps. Looking at the solemn military gate not far away, she couldn't help swallowing.
Su Nan didn't expect that the Huiping Cultural Group was actually set up in the army. This was too formal, which made her hesitate and feel uneasy.
If the makeup isn't done well, won't he be dragged out and executed on the spot according to military law?
Cheer herself up in her heart, Su Nan walked towards the gate with her head held high, heading towards the army that she had never been to in her two lifetimes.
The young soldier on guard looked at Su Nan without blinking, and he was already on guard in his heart. He had noticed her presence since she came into his sight.
After seeing the other person's appearance clearly, his first reaction was that she was an actor in the literary troupe, but he had been on guard for so long and had never seen the other person. Logically speaking, with her outstanding appearance, he would definitely have an impression of her.
But he searched his mind several times and found no information about the other party, so this idea was ruled out.
Before I could think about it for long, I heard the little girl in front of me answer the question herself.
"Hello, comrade. I am the makeup artist consultant invited by Deputy Head Chen of the Cultural Corps. Here is my letter of introduction and relevant documents." Su Nan took out a file bag from his bag and handed it to the person in front of him.
He saluted solemnly before taking the document bag from her hand. Before he finished reading it, he saw a girl in a green military uniform and two pigtails running in from the gate.
"Sister Su." The visitor waved enthusiastically at Su Nan through the gate railings with a bright smile on his face.
Su Nan naturally recognized Chen Youshan and smiled back.
"Da Qiangzi, let her in quickly. She is really the makeup artist my aunt invited to help with the Lantern Festival." Chen Youshan grabbed Liu Wenqiang's sleeve through the railing and shook it up and down.
There was a hint of intimacy and coquettishness in her words, and her eyes showed the sweetness and willfulness that only little girls often have when they fall in love.
Su Nan looked at Chen Youshan, then at Liu Wenqiang, who didn't know where to put his hands and feet, and couldn't help but reveal a meaningful expression.
"It still has to be handled impartially." Liu Wenqiang cleared his throat, glanced at Su Nan, whose face showed "I understand everything", waved Chen Youshan's hand away somewhat uncomfortably, and then began to check the documents carefully.
Chen Youshan pouted, withdrew her hand, and started talking to Su Nan.
"Sister Su, are you tired? You must have come all the way here. It must have been hard."
"The last time you did my makeup, everyone in my family said it looked good, especially my aunt. After asking me about it, she came to you."
"I'll take you to the dormitory later. I've prepared a single room for you there. You'll stay there for the next two days. After the holiday, we'll go to the cafeteria."
Chen Youshan kept talking non-stop, and Su Nan listened to her carefully. After hearing that she could sleep in a single room, she couldn't help cheering in her heart.
She didn't want to live with so many people, and it would be too inconvenient since she was only staying for a few days.
At this time, Liu Wenqiang had finally finished reviewing the information. After he sorted out the file bag, he returned it to Su Nan and opened the door.
"Wait a minute, I won't be looking for you to have dinner. I'll eat with Sister Su." Chen Youshan lowered her voice and gave Liu Wenqiang some instructions.
"Okay." Liu Wenqiang smiled and replied in a low voice. Then he waved to Chen Youshan and returned to his post to continue standing guard.
"I'll help you carry your things." Chen Youshan took the suitcase containing the clothes from Su Nan's hand, but did not take the other bamboo box because she knew that makeup artists generally don't like others to touch their makeup boxes.
For example, the arrogant woman in the literary troupe, if anyone gets close to her makeup box, she will be sarcastic for the whole day.
So Chen Youshan subconsciously thought that Su Nan was the same, but she was really worrying too much. Su Nan had no taboos in this regard.
In her previous life, her job had to deal with all kinds of cosmetics. She had used dozens or even hundreds of makeup cases, if not thousands. If anyone touched her makeup case, she would get angry and would be so angry that she would die.
They hadn't walked far when Chen Youshan pointed to the open space to Su Nan's right and introduced it to her: "Look, that's the training ground for soldiers."
Su Nan looked in the direction Chen Youshan pointed, and saw a large open space with training equipment placed on it, and many men with their upper bodies naked were running on it.
It was winter and they were only wearing long pants, but they were sweating profusely.
It's really hard work. While Su Nan felt distressed, his eyes were fixed on him in admiration. Wow, he is indeed a soldier who has gone through devilish training. Look at his figure, he is really full of hormones.
Chen Youshan has lived in the military camp for many years, so she is naturally accustomed to their naked behavior, but Su Nan is not like that. Most girls will shyly look away when they see so many men.
It's rare to see someone like Su Nan who is not shy at all. He is really brave. Chen Youshan made a conclusion about Su Nan in her heart.
Before the two men crossed the training ground, a small group of men came towards them.
