Chapter 838: 838
“Huh?”
How did that happen?!
Song Shou scratched his head in confusion but did not ask any further . It was at least some good news .
He nodded . “Come with me . ”
Along the way to Huo Chen, they passed by a few buildings and saw many other soldiers .
However, they did not greet her warmly and with respect as they did before . Instead, they simply looked at her .
It was a look of anger, revulsion, and veiled hostility .
Wen He looked down and asked quietly, “Song Shou, do you hate me as well?”
Song Shou was taken aback .
“Ma’am, I believe in my superior’s choice . ”
He was shaken by Wen He’s true identity at first, but his trust in Huo Chen remained stolid .
Since Huo Chen had chosen her, she must be not a terrible person .
“Thank you . ”
Wen He smiled briefly .
Song Shou might accept her, but that did not mean others would .
Oh, Huo Chen…
As Z Country’s brave young soldier, he was like a god put on a pedestal by the country’s people .
She, on the other hand, was a tainted woman .
They were like the angel and the devil, destined to different worlds with no hope of ever being together .
“We’re here . ”
Song Shou brought her to a building and led her inside to a confinement room .

The room was designed like a normal jail, but it was humid and pitch black inside like the depth of the abyss .
It was used to punish soldiers who committed wrongdoing .
When the lights were switched on, Wen He saw Huo Chen .
He was locked inside one of the cells, sitting up straight on a simply wooden bed . He looked characteristically detached and impassive .
There was only a slight frown on his face that betrayed his vexation . When the light came on, he narrowed his eyes uncomfortably .
“… Huo Chen . ”
Wen He approached his cell and grabbed the bars with her left hand .
“Wen He?”
Huo Chen was taken by surprise . He ignored his discomfort from the sudden burst of light in the room and looked toward her . A smile lit up his face when he finally saw her .
He stood up and went to her quickly . He put one hand around hers on the bars and sighed .

“I just know that you will force your way in here . ”
Wen He simply smiled at him and did not comment .
Huo Chen did not seem to notice the torment in her eyes . He slipped his fingers between hers and smiled lovingly at her .
“When will you learn to listen to orders?”
Wen He nearly burst out crying when she heard that .
She smiled even wider and spoke chokingly .
“How will I listen when you are not around?”
“I am fine . ”
Huo Chen continued speaking with the story he had prepared .

“Do you remember Sha Kang from the Golden Triangle? I thought you were dead back then and killed him despite orders from the commander . As punishment, the commander decided to lock me up for some time . ” He smiled and said, “This will take a few months at least . Are you touched?”
Tears finally escaped her eyes when she heard him spout lies so easily to her .
This man…
Had she not found out what happened from Yang Yi, she may just accept everything he said as the truth .
Song Shou bowed his head deeply and remained silent .
“Don’t cry . ”
Huo Chen could not bear to see her sad . He reached out to wipe away her tears and looked at her tenderly .
“Not to worry, this is only temporary . Just wait for me at home . Once I am released, we will have a wedding . ”
