"Instructor Mu, I..."
"An Ran, can you wait for a little longer? I need to finish this docunt."
As soon as she started speaking, Mu Xingfeng interrupted her. An Ran looked at Mu Xingfeng engrossed in his work, nodded, and picked up her water cup, taking small sips with her head lowered.
Beside her, Mu Xingfeng’s palms were already sweaty. No one would have thought that Mu Xingfeng, known as the Cold-faced Yama among the Guard Team, would be afraid of what a little girl might say at this mont.
What does she want to say to ? Didn’t my explanation just now suffice? Does she still want a divorce, to break off this relationship?
If she really says it, what should I do? Continue to act shalessly?
For a mont, the atmosphere in the air seed to freeze. Although the two were sitting there without disturbing each other, sothing seed about to happen.
"Ring... ring..."
Mu Xingfeng’s phone rang.
The man closed his laptop, exhaled quietly, and picked up the phone, seeing it was from the Nan’an Guard Team.
"Chief Guard Wang—"
He answered the call and greeted, then listened to the phone while walking towards the window.
An Ran watched Mu Xingfeng. Upon hearing "Chief Guard Wang," she knew it was a call from the Guard Team. When she saw Mu Xingfeng’s expression becoming solemn, her heart tightened too.
Until Mu Xingfeng hung up the phone, his expression remained serious and dignified.
"Instructor Mu, has sothing happened?" An Ran stood up and looked at Mu Xingfeng.
Mu Xingfeng walked over and embraced her tightly, as if wanting to rge into her bones.
"Ranran, there’s an ergency mission for the Guard Team. A helicopter will co to pick up shortly. I’ll arrange for a car to take you back to the old residence. During this ti, stay ho obediently. Whatever you have to say, wait until I return, okay?"
"Is it dangerous?" An Ran couldn’t help but ask.
"Don’t worry, I’ll protect myself." He thought of the little girl who cried when she saw his wound, and his heart ward.
At this mont, a loud roar echoed above the villa, and the helicopter’s soft ladder descended.
Mu Xingfeng geared up, glanced back at An Ran, and turned towards the door.
"Instructor Mu—"
Hearing the call, Mu Xingfeng paused and turned around.
An Ran quickly ran over, stood on tiptoe, and gently kissed the corner of the man’s lips, "I’ll wait for you to co back safely."
Mu Xingfeng was visibly stunned. Seeing the fierce emotions in her eyes, it seed the doubts in his mind had found an answer. Finally, he nodded and said, "Okay."
After speaking, he turned and walked out of the door, agilely leaping onto the soft ladder. The helicopter then flew away towards the distance...
In the blink of an eye, Mu Xingfeng had been gone for five days, and there had been no news at all in those five days.
On the second day after Mu Xingfeng left, Lin Junyang returned to the Nan’an Guard Team. Lin Ruonan was said to be transferring and temporarily stayed in the Imperial City.
When An Ran heard this news, she was not particularly moved. She could tell when Lin Ruonan ca to apologize to her at ho that day. Whether Mu Xingfeng’s attitude had completely disheartened her or her own presence had made her give up, in any case, Lin Ruonan’s sincerity that day was genuine.
Besides, even soone as slow as her could sense a different kind of sentint from Brother Gu Haoyu towards Lin Ruonan. It seed she already had a new start.
That day, An Ran was sent back to the old residence by the driver. The family already knew Mu Xingfeng had gone to carry out another mission. They seed accustod to his frequent departures, but An Ran felt a sense of emptiness.
