Chapter 1718 A Short Birthday Interlude (7)
Perceiving Long Qian Xing’s gaze, Nan Hua felt as if she was a prey that was being stared by a predator.
This feeling was extremely strong when she was looking in Long Qian Xing’s eyes.
‘What did I do?’
Nan Hua felt a bit at loss.
She was only eating honestly and Long Qian Xing was actually thinking in that direction? Just what is in his mind?
What she didn’t know was that hormone played a very big role and it was hard for a man to stay calm near the girl he liked. Especially when the other party was unconsciously tempting him without her knowing.
“Shall we eat lunch?” Nan Hua asked carefully, trying to change the conversation so that he would not think in this direction. She didn’t really want to take that big step in their relationship in this place and at this time.
Long Qian Xing closed his eyes to calm down and replied, “It’s good.”
He noticed Nan Hua’s confusion and even he himself couldn’t exactly say why. Just looking at Nan Hua’s move, especially when she was eating snacks, he would be attracted to her lips and wanted to do something bad.
But he also knew that the culture in this era was very conservative. He was more worried about whether she would be able to accept it or not.
In the end, he had to suppress himself.
The only good thing was that Nan Hua didn’t purposely tempt him because he was absolutely sure that it would definitely be torturous for him.
The two of them entered the tent and there was already a small table with food prepared. The food was steaming hot. Long Qian Xing habitually swept his gaze across his room to check if there was anything that moved and then walked down to sit when he found nothing was wrong.
This was one of the habit he had cultivated.
Because of his position, there were a lot of people who wanted to take advantage of him and harm him. He made sure that he remembered the situation of his place before he left.
That way, if there was something strange, he would be able to notice it and deal with it right away.
Nan Hua saw Long Qian Xing’s small action and said nothing.
She naturally knew this kind of action because she herself had been taught to remember these things. It was even more so because when she came here, she realized that the security was not very good and they had to rely on others.
Nan Hua was not a person who liked to rely on other people.
She basically didn’t trust anyone.
So she also made sure that she observed her surroundings very well even when she was in the safe location. This way, no one would be able to take advantage of her without her knowing.
And so far, no one dared to make any small moves against her.
They might not be able to reach her bedroom, so there was no such action.
Nan Hua saw that Long Qian Xing had seated down and sit down on the opposite side of him.
“Let’s eat.”
“En.”
The two of them started eating.
Due to the etiquette, the two of them didn’t talk while eating. However, Long Qian Xing would move the food that Nan Hua liked to be closer to her. That way, she didn’t have to reach long eat it.
Nan Hua saw Long Qian Xing’s small move and silently pushed back some of the dishes that Long Qian Xing himself liked.
This way, the dishes on the table moved several times.
In the end, Long Qian Xing laughed. He felt amused when he saw the two of them were acting this way. “You can eat more of the dishes you like, Hua’er.”
“You don’t have to restrain yourself to accommodate me either, Brother Long,” Nan Hua said seriously. She looked at Long Qian Xing and then added, “If you like some food, you can also eat and enjoy it.”
Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua, who was staring in his direction seriously, and felt warm in his heart. He smiled brightly. “Okay, Hua’er.”
Nan Hua watched as Long Qian Xing ate more and the corner of her lips curled up slightly in satisfaction.
There was no need for him to accommodate her so much.
She could also accommodate him.
After all, feelings are something that need to be supported by two people. If only one person kept on giving in and supported the relationship, there will be a time when he or she became tired.
Feelings were not inexhaustible resource.
It has to be maintained if one wanted to keep good relationship with each other for their entire life.
The two of them no longer speak, but the atmosphere were more harmonious and warmer than before. Clearly, the simple talk and accompaniment had allowed their relationship to grow closer.
Unfortunately, this wouldn’t last long.
Not long after their lunch was over, a soldier came over to report that Strategist Song had secretly sent people to investigate the west area.
Their break had come to an end.
It was time for them to work again.
“Check what they’re looking for.” Long Qian Xing waved his hand and then turned to look at Nan Hua. “General Jun, let’s talk again later.”
“Yes, I also want to check on them.” Nan Hua nodded.
Long Qian Xing sighed internally and then followed the soldiers to find out more about what that annoying Song Yun Xiang wanted to do.At this time, he really wanted to beat up that annoying man for disturbing him when he wanted to spend more time with his woman.
If Song Yun Xiang knew that he had attracted more hatred inexplicably, he would definitely scold Long Qian Xing for being so unreasonable. This damn man was getting more and more annoying after not seeing each other for so many years.
Unfortunately, he didn’t know about it.
