doration when he looks at her.Cold Night Shen lifted his other hand and gently wiped the oil stain from her lips.Tong Yimo's face was fair with a touch of redness, her eyes were clear and bright like...He took a long time to sort out things between himself and Xing'er.

Xing'er had no reason to refuse him.

Even if she was angry, she wouldn't repeatedly reject him.

Unless, Xing'er truly no longer likes him.

Ming Sihan suddenly felt very ridiculous.

Self-love, wishful thinking...

On the other side, Lang An walked for a while with Lian Xing'er on his back before the driver finally arrived in his car.

The moment Lian Xing'er got into the car, she received a call from Leng Yanchen.

"Brother, are you looking for me"

"Your brother has already applied for retirement." Leng Yanchen got straight to the point.

Lian Xing'er beamed: "Then, brother can be with me every day after that!"

"When are you getting married" A thousand cuts from your brother.

Lien Xing'er twitched her lips: "You haven't married yet!"

"Isn't it usually the younger sister who gets married first" Leng Yanchen said calmly.

"How about we make a bet" Li Xing'er giggled.

"What are you betting on"

I bet you get married first!

"I think you got married before me."

"Brother, I haven't called Grandpa in a long time. I suddenly miss him." Lian Xing'er said with emotion.

Lán Yànchēn immediately conceded, "I'm a man of my word. You win. What do you want as your reward"

"That... Uncle Ming, oh no, I mean Big Brother Ming, is it that my background check for our engagement wasn't approved by his superior"

What did Ming Sihan tell you

"Don't change the subject."

"Yes, it is indeed not approved. However, Qi Hui said that he wants to retire with me. Once he retires, he can marry you freely."

"No! Brother, if Ming Ge stays in the army for a few more years, he'll be promoted to captain! That would be so impressive, wouldn't it You should persuade Ming Ge! The title of captain is more important than marrying me! No, wait... protecting our country is even more important! My reward is for you to persuade Ming Ge to continue serving the nation!"

A burst of laughter, "Hahaha", echoed through the receiver.

This voice doesn't sound like Leng Yanchen's.

"At this time, Leng Yanchen added, "I'm on speakerphone, Qi Hui is right beside me.""

" "..." Lian Xing'er was speechless, really wanting to dig a hole and hide in it, but unfortunately there was nowhere to dig.

Then, the voice of Ming Qihuai, Ming Sichao's older brother, came from the receiver: "Miss Leng, your little schemes, I saw through them long ago."

"I didn't mean it that way! Big Brother Ming, please don't misunderstand." Lian Xing'er explained awkwardly.

Mingqihui laughed and said, “Don’t worry! This time Xiaohan is back, I will definitely let Xiaohan marry you. If he dares to mistreat you, our entire family, as well as all the people in my army, will stand by you!”

"……" Lian Xing'er wanted to cry but had no tears, feeling like she had fallen into some kind of trap.

“Alright, our time is up. I'll call you later.” Leng Yanchen said this and hung up the phone directly.

Lian Xing'er looked at the call ended reminder on her phone screen, with a puzzled expression.

Lang An glanced at Lian Xing'er, then cast a forlorn look out the car window.

Just then, there was a loud bang.

Lang An, regaining his senses, instinctively lunged towards Lian Xing'er.

Before Lian Xing'er could see what had happened, Lang An's body suddenly blocked her view. The next second, she felt herself being tightly hugged by Lang An. Everything spun wildly, and a piercing metallic sound rang in her ears.

I don't know how long it had been, but when Xing’er opened her eyes again, her vision was blurry and she heard a piercing ringing in both ears.

She covered her ears in pain, until the screeching stopped, and her vision gradually cleared.

In front of me, the car was in complete disarray, dimly lit. The driver, covered in blood, hung upside down from the driver's seat.

And at this moment, she was lying on Lang An's body. Blood seeped from his forehead under his broken hair, but he was struggling to prop up the car with his feet, as if trying to keep it from collapsing.

Seeing this, Lianxing reached into the rear pocket on the passenger seat and rummaged for a long time before finally pulling out a fruit knife.

Lang An saw Lian Xing'er holding a knife, her voice hoarse: "Miss, what are you going to do"

"Save him." Lian Xing'er furrowed her brows, drawing the blade from its sheath. She gripped the hilt tightly and moved it with force.

"Hiss—" A sharp intake of breath, she was in so much pain that tears welled up in her eyes. Then, with difficulty, she crawled forward and dripped her blood onto the driver's wounded head.

"Miss!" Lang An wanted to stop her, but he was powerless.

Lian Xing'er's hands began to tremble, and her face gradually paled.

After an unknown amount of time, the driver, who had previously lost consciousness, finally showed signs of movement.

When Lian Xing'er saw the driver frown, she retracted her hand, threw away the fruit knife, and whispered in a dull voice, "Uncle Li, Uncle Li! Wake up!"

After the driver woke up, the sound of ambulances "woooooo" and police sirens could be heard in the distance.

Then Xing'er climbed back to Lang An's side, just about to use her blood to save him when Lang An reached out to stop her and pulled her into his arms.

"Miss, I swore to protect you," Lang An said with effort.

>Xing'er hesitated, her voice caught in her throat. She looked up at Ming Sihan, and suddenly felt a pang of emotion that rendered her speechless. 。She can't force him to give up his dream of studying...
