Chapter 1008: Goodbye, Han Xuan
Did someone else see them?
“Who saw us?” The man asked.
The two red flame soldiers who had already run a distance ahead did not dare to return. They stood in place in a panic and saluted, “General, we didn’t see anything!”
The two red flame soldiers then ran away.
This time, Bai Qi’s entire face turned red. She said helplessly in a soft voice, “Why are you like this? Getting jealous over nothing. Your jealousy is even stronger than a woman’s.”
The man buried his head in her hair and sniffed. He frowned and said in a m.u.f.fled voice, “Do you think I like to be jealous? If jealousy can be controlled, do you think I like to be acting like a girl?”
The corners of Bai Qi’s lips curled up. She relaxed her body and leaned into his embrace. The weather was very good today. The clouds were pa.s.sing and the weather looks cozy. She felt that her mood also relaxed and was relieved.
Zhou Yao hugged her tightly. He just felt uncomfortable in his heart. Ye Ziyi did not love this world but loved her. He had fought with Ye Ziyi for so long. He did not want Ye Ziyi to die and then be missed by her.
“Honey, completely forget about Ye Ziyi, okay? You are mine. Your heart is mine too. I don’t want any other man to have a place in your heart, even if it’s the mark of a wild goose!”
“Why are you so possessive?”
“I’m such a person. It’s not like you didn’t know when you were with me back then!”
He thought he had the right to ask for such a thing?
Bai Qi couldn’t help but laugh. She stretched out her two small hands and hugged his two strong arms that were around her slender waist, “Zhou Yao, I know. Ye Ziyi no longer exists. I’m yours, wholly. A person who has already died, all the good and bad things he did to me are forgotten and forgiven. Everything was just like a dream.”
Zhou Yao’s cold facial features immediately softened. The corner of his s.e.xy lips curled up into a happy smile. He kissed Bai Qi’s face hard and said with a smile, “I believe in you! I’ll let you off this time!”
It was daytime here. She didn’t dare to play around with him here. She said angrily, “Alright, we’ve made things clear. Can you let go of me now, General Zhou?”
“No!” Zhou Yao kissed her face again.
Bai Qi smiled. “General Zhou, you seem to be becoming more and more… clingy? Aren’t you afraid of being laughed at if this gets out?” He was on par with little Sileng.
Zhou Yao was in a good mood. He raised his eyebrows. “I’m not afraid of it even if it gets out. I love my wife and clings to my wife. What’s wrong with that? Gossipers can get lost!”
Alright, Bai Qi was helpless. However, she liked how straightforward and domineering he was.
The two of them hugged each other affectionately. At this moment, Xiao Zhi rushed over and said, “General, there’s news.”
Zhou Yao let go of Bai Qi and turned around to look at Xiao Zhi.
“General, sister-in-law. We’ve found Han Xuan…”
…
The military-green jeep stopped. Zhou Yao held Bai Qi’s little hand and helped her jump down from the back seat. The two of them stood in place and looked ahead. This was a mountain, and there was a nunnery in the mountain.
Han Xuan had stayed in this nunnery for the past four years.
The two of them walked into the nunnery hand in hand. One of the meditation rooms was surrounded by the red-flame soldiers. Seeing Zhou Yao, the red-flame soldiers immediately saluted.
Zhou Yao looked at Bai Qi. “You wait here. I’ll go in to see Han Xuan.”
Bai Qi shook her head. “I’ll go in with you…”
“No need. Han Xuan will only be irritated when she sees you. I’ll go in and talk to her. Don’t worry. I’ll make her change your face back.”
Han Xuan would be agitated when she saw her, but Han Xuan would not be agitated when she saw him? Han Xuan’s stubborn love for him had probably turned into extreme hatred now.
Han Xuan would not easily change her face back. She would definitely make things difficult for him.
“But…”
“No buts…” Zhou Yao pursed his thin lips and reached out to stroke her hair. “I’ll listen to you at home in the future, but you need to listen to me outside of the home.”
Zhou Yao spread his long legs and entered the meditation room.
Bai Qi wanted to call him, but once he’d made up his mind, it’d be hard to change. Forget it. Han Xuan had a history with him, so let him deal with it himself.
…
In the meditation room.
Han Xuan sat in a wheelchair. She tied up her hair and wore a nun hat. She was wearing a plain-colored nun’s outfit. In the past four years, she had become much gloomier, as if she had not seen the sun for a long time.
Zhou Yao walked in and looked at Han Xuan in the wheelchair with his hands in his pockets.
Han Xuan also looked at him. Her eyes were filled with deep hatred. She smiled and said, “The sun has risen from the west today. General Zhou actually came to see me. What a rare guest. Haha.”
Zhou Yao looked calm and said, “Han Xuan, I didn’t expect that we would come to this.”
Han Xuan immediately stopped laughing. Her gloomy eyes coiled around Zhou Yao like a poisonous snake. “You didn’t expect it? Zhou Yao, it was you who forced us into this desperate situation!”
Zhou Yao frowned. “It wasn’t me who forced us into a desperate situation. It was you. It was your greed and selfishness.”
“Humph, what’s the point of saying all this now? Zhou Yao, I hate you. I hate Leng Zhiyuan. Every time I think of you in the past four years, I feel a knife twisting in my heart. I pray day and night for Buddha to punish you. I want you two to be separate for eternity!”
Zhou Yao raised his head to look at the Buddha statue in front of him. The man’s tall and straight back stood upright like a pine tree. He slowly said, “Buddha has a wise eye. The world contains right and wrong. I, Zhou Yao, have a clear conscience. I joined the army at the age of 16. Now, it has been 16 years. My hands are stained with blood, but I kill people who should be killed. I carry that faith and am ready to sacrifice for the country at any time. I am a man of the Zhou family. I have stood tall and upright all my life. However, what I, Zhou Yao, want in my life is nothing more than that woman and a family. If Buddha is truly merciful, we will never be separated again for the rest of our lives. And your prayers are destined to not be fulfilled.”
Han Xuan was so angry that her entire body was trembling. She looked at the man’s handsome silhouette that was as gentle as water. It had been four years, and he was still the same. Just like that year in Yunnan when he had scolded that woman in a low voice, he still doted her.
Time could not take away a single bit of his love.
Han Xuan was thinking to herself that if he was willing to treat her like this… no, if he was willing to even look her in the eye, perhaps they would not have gotten to this. He knew that all she wanted in her life was just him.
However, no one fulfilled her wish.
He gave all of his love to that woman, and she could only envy in the dark corner.
“Enough, Zhou Yao. You’re not here to show your love in front of Buddha, are you? Tell me, what are you doing here?”
Zhou Yao looked at Han Xuan. “Why are you beating around the bush? I’m already here.”
“Ha, Haha.” Han Xuan raised her head and laughed exaggeratedly. Tears even came out. “General Zhou, don’t you love Leng Zhiyuan so much? Then why do you care so much about what face she has, whether she’d became prettier or ugly?”
