When she looked at him at times, even a faint look can bore through one’s skeleton .
However, most of the time, she did not notice herself . She did not realize that when she was in the village; she was once gazed at by many .
In the past, she should have been a naïve, innocent girl . Only when she was trapped in the mountains, did she became sharp and sensitive .
During that moment, she had a mental breakdown .
She failed at her attempts to escape . She even tried to coax him, “You differ from the others . You are righteous so please let me leave . ”
At that moment, it was a crucial part of the mission and he could not let her leave . All he could do was protect her .
If not, without her telling him, he would let her leave .
There was once where she caught the flu and had a fever . She looked at him dazedly and asked him for his origins . Her voice was soft and sweet as if she was murmuring while half asleep .
Before, she kept shouting that she was not feeling well and could not sleep peacefully on the bed . However, when he leaned over and whispered in her ear, to tell the truth, she calmed down and whispered that she was the same!
Then she slept peacefully .
When she woke up, she treated him differently . She figured that if she had no chance to escape, then she had to find herself a man . Becoming attached to a man would allow her to not be bullied by other men .
She was also afraid that he would give her to another man . Thus, she pretended to like him and even asked him, “Do you have someone that you like?”
“I do!” At that moment, he replied that he had someone that he liked . But in his heart, he added one more sentence— ‘she’s standing right before me . ’
“Then why are you not together with her?”
“Because of your identity?”
“Actually, I think that you are not a bad person . You are different from the others . ”
“I like you a lot . How about you like me back?”
Despite the unpredicted words, he calmly looked back at her and even found it funny . This girl was using a honey trap to rebel against him .
At that moment, he asked her, “In the past, didn’t you like your fiance? At such a young age, you were engaged to him . Tell me, why did you like him?”
She looked logy and clumsily said, “Because he has a handsome face, good figure and treats me well…”
As she talked further, her tone became weak . If he really treated her well, he would not abandon her in times of crisis or even made her the scapegoat to protect his life .
At that moment, he wanted to reply back that her fiance was just another pretty boy with a handsome face but his build was not good at all .
His body build was better . ‘You should not have liked your fiance, you should have liked me instead . ’
He even thought that after this whole event had passed, he would be responsible for her and cherish her forever . However, nobody expected what happened next .
Lu Yanzhi held out his hand to feel Su Qianxun’s forehead .
Although it remained hot, it was better than before . Lu Yanzhi then used a cold towel to wipe her face and hand . He then changed her antipyretic paste to a new one .
Time passed and the fever slowly went down . Su Qianxun became conscious while the fever left her forehead red .
At this point, she should be puzzled and half-conscious . Her eyes teared up, lips half-open, and she looked enchanting like a charm .
When she saw him, she furrowed her brows and ambiguously said, “You… bastard… Don’t you dare touch me again…”
