Chapter 2038 Surprise
2035 Surprise
Long Qian Xing slowly released Nan Hua in his embrace.
Looking at the young woman’s lips and glistening eyes, he was really tempted to continue.
However, his remaining self restraint stopped him from doing so and only looked at Nan Hua in front of him.
Her slightly teary eyes looked very alluring. Even if she was not meaning to, Long Qian Xing felt that he really wanted to get closer to Nan Hua and continued what he was doing.
“Brother Long,” Nan Hua called out.
Long Qian Xing, whose hand was about to stretch forward, trembled and stayed still. He looked at the young woman in front of him and then replied, “Yes, Hua’er?”
“Shall we go back now?” Nan Hua asked in a low voice.
There was still enough time for them to spend their time together.
It was late night and the two of them were tired after Nan Hua’s long journey and Long Qian Xing’s own business in his camp.
Even if they wanted to do something else, it could wait until later or even tomorrow. “Right.” Long Qian Xing sighed.
He felt time passed so quickly.
When he wanted to spend more time with Nan Hua, it didn’t seem to be possible. He looked at Nan Hua a bit unwillingly and then sighed, “Tomorrow, we’re going to have dinner together with the other three families. This shall be our separation.” After crossing this lake, it was unlikely for them to come here again anytime soon. With the war between Fei Yang Kingdom and Shi Long Kingdom was still raging, they didn’t have the time to come to various other places and squander their time.
Not to mention, Nan Hua also wanted to go back to Fei Yang Kingdom’s Capital City after the war was over.
Neither of them knew when they would come here again.
And if the lake water was to be filled up to be extremely high, it would be difficult for them to cross the river to come here again.
Nan Hua nodded. “It’s good.”
She didn’t have many interactions with the three families, but they have cooperated together for some time.
The dinner together could be said to be their farewell with each other.
As for why they were not in a hurry?
It was because the soldiers also needed to rest and there was no point in them
hurrying over at this time. The distance to that great river would take more than a week’s time even if they were fast.
Rather than exhausting their army’s strength for that inevitable journey, it would be better for them to rest after a long period of battle.
Their soldiers needed to rest, both physically and mentally.
“How about that carriage?” Long Qian Xing remembered that when Nan Hua came, there was a carriage coming with them.
That carriage was definitely not for Nan Hua.
Nan Hua’s horse riding skill was very good. When they were marching before, Long Qian Xing had seen it and knew how good it was and felt rather astounded and proud. Because Nan Hua was really capable and Long Qian Xing himself also knew that Nan Hua would not use the carriage on the battlefield.
After all, what kind of general used a carriage on the battlefield?
They would be looked down upon by the other soldiers who were either riding horse or marching on foot.
And bringing a carriage from that temple in the depths of the mountain to here was definitely not easy. The road was not exactly good and the carriage would be very bumpy on the way.
There was no way Nan Hua bring that carriage for fun.
So there had to be another reason why she brought the carriage with her here. “There’s someone who wants to see you,” Nan Hua said, only now remembering that she brought someone along.
Because she finally saw Long Qian Xing again, she seemed to forget about the duties and other things that she had to do. Thankfully, that state didn’t last for long.
“Someone who wants to see me?” Long Qian Xing was bewildered.
He was sure that he didn’t have any other acquaintance in the three families’ area. After all, he had never been here before and these people were all the new people whom he met after he came here.
There was no way he would be able to know them.
“Yes.” Nan Hua nodded and took the lead in returning to their camp.
The carriage was coming with Nan Hua and it was parked not too far away from where Long Qian Xing’s tent was located.
Chu Yue and Lou had arranged for people to prepare Nan Hua’s tent right beside Long Qian Xing’s. The other soldiers were already used to this and didn’t comment
anything when they saw this matter.
Anyway, they would pretend that they didn’t know anything.
However, they were curious about this carriage that was parked not far from Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua’s tent.
So the soldiers gathered around.
“What are you doing here?” Long Qian Xing frowned and waved his hands. “Go back to your post.”
“Yes, General Xing!”
No matter how curious the soldiers were, they didn’t dare to disobey Long Qian Xing and hurriedly return to their respective post. They would not try to bother Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua here.
Adjutant Jiang and Number 1 came to salute Nan Hua, which she responded with a nod. “We’ll talk tomorrow about the army. You have done well.”
“Yes, General Jun!”
The two of them bowed respectfully before leaving. They were not in a hurry and there was nothing urgent either, so they would not be tactless to disturb Nan Hua at
this time.
And with the soldiers crowding around dispersing, they could now see the person in the middle, the one who came along with Nan Hua with the carriage not long ago.
Long Qian Xing, who was originally confused as to who Nan Hua meant, was surprised when he saw the person in front of the carriage.
How come he’s here?
