The sea breeze gently blew, and the waves rhythmically slapped in the tranquil night around, providing her heart with unprecedented solace.
"Nan, let’s go back and have sothing to eat." Gu Haoyu ca to Lin Ruonan’s side, gently placing a hand on her shoulder, his broad hand feeling like her most solid support.
"Okay." Lin Ruonan turned her head and saw deep eyes, slightly dazed but quickly regained her composure: "Thank you, Brother, for bringing here. It’s really beautiful."
"As long as you like it." Seeing Lin Ruonan not as sad anymore, Gu Haoyu felt relief in his heart.
"Brother, I’m returning to the Guard Team tomorrow. Can you help book a flight for tomorrow?"
"Why return so soon? Don’t you have a break after completing your mission?" Gu Haoyu didn’t expect Lin Ruonan to go back so quickly. Has she really given up?
He knew Lin Ruonan was strong-willed from a young age, otherwise, she wouldn’t have waited so long to express her feelings for Mu Xingfeng. She was probably afraid of rejection, too.
Seeing her this way, he felt uneasy. After all, it’s been nearly twenty years of affection; how can it be let go so easily?
Lin Ruonan gave a bleak smile: "The break can forget it. Xingfeng doesn’t let care for him, and staying ho during this period is unbearable. It’s better to return to the team for peace. Besides, after completing the mission, we should report to the leader personally. At that ti, because Xingfeng’s condition was critical, only Liu Hu reported, and I’m worried there might be omissions. So, I need to go back and report again."
Gu Haoyu naturally knew Lin Ruonan’s family situation and understood her inability to stay because of Mu Xingfeng’s matter. He also thought it might be good for her to leave now, so he nodded: "Okay, I’ll book the ticket for you later. Let’s go back and eat first."
Without waiting for Lin Ruonan to respond, he directly took her hand and walked towards the villa.
The broad hand enveloped her small hand, with dry warmth coming from the fingertips. Lin Ruonan lost herself for a mont but couldn’t escape the strength of his grasp, so she had to follow his steps into the villa.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed without any news of Mu Xingfeng. On the weekend, An Ran went to Longteng Xinyuan and felt an absence of human presence as soon as she entered. There was even so dust on the table.
An Ran tidied up the house before going back to school dejectedly.
As soon as she entered the dormitory, Xiao Xiao stretched her head over: "What’s up? Still no news from Instructor Mu?"
An Ran shook her head. It’s been nearly two months since the last call, and there’s been no news from him. She wondered how he was doing, whether he had completed his mission, and if he was in any danger.
"Ranran, looking at you like this, you must love Instructor Mu, right?" Xiao Xiao squinted at An Ran.
An Ran raised her hand and hit her on the head: "Don’t talk nonsense. I just want to see Instructor Mu. He saved twice, and I haven’t even thanked him yet. It feels uneasy in my heart."
"Oh~" Xiao Xiao let out a aningful ’oh’ and suddenly brightened up: "Ranran, how about we go find Instructor Mu? Giving him a surprise would show your sincerity, right?"
"What if Instructor Mu isn’t there? Wouldn’t that be a wasted trip?" An Ran rolled her eyes, thinking Xiao Xiao was becoming more and more foolish.
