Chapter 1691 Teasing
"En."
The two of them went away and headed to Long Qian Xing's temporary tent. As the general, his tent was prepared the earliest for him to rest. Many other soldiers were still busy building their tent for them to rest for the night.
"When did you arrive?" Long Qian Xing took off his helmet and armor. These things were quite heavy and having to wear it all the time could be quite tiring. Anyway, he still had light armor below these heavy armor.
"Not long ago." Nan Hua tilted her head. "I regrouped with the soldiers and then march to this area. The commotion is big, so I can reach this place quickly."
Long Qian Xing turned around and smiled. "Thank you."
Nan Hua blinked her eyes. "I didn't do anything."
"Thank you for healing Fang Sheng Lin. That guy just had a bad mouth." Long Qian Xing's hands felt itchy once again when he thought about Fang Sheng Lin. For some reason, he really wanted to come forward and beat up that man again.
Hearing his words, Nan Hua felt amused. She heard the words that Fang Sheng Lin used to call Long Qian Xing and asked, "Are you jealous?"
Jealous?
Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua deeply and stepped closer to Nan Hua. His right hand stretched and rubbed Nan Hua's cheek. "What do you think?"
Nan Hua blinked her eyes. Being so close to Long Qian Xing, she was able to sense that he was not as calm as his expression suggested him to be. His heartbeat was really loud and fast, signaling that he was nervous in the inside.
There was no man who would be able to stay calm when he was close to the person he liked.
Unless he didn't like that person.
Or he had some problems.
Long Qian Xing clearly bypassed these two conditions and staying so close to Nan Hua made him excited and nervous at the same time. Yet, he was happy and delighted when he was able to be with Nan Hua.
The conflicting feelings were exciting and interesting.
"I'm only treating him because you're his friend," Nan Hua explained.
"I know." Long Qian Xing rubbed Nan Hua's cheek, feeling the soft touch. It was really nice to touch, making him want to rub Nan Hua's cheek forever
He knew that Nan Hua only helped Fang Sheng Lin because he's his friend. Nan Hua had no other intention towards Fang Sheng Lin and didn't care about his joke either.
But he didn't like seeing his woman being teased by other people, even if that was just joking.
Also, he was not jealous because he could see that Nan Hua didn't care about Fang Sheng Lin and would not look at the other party. If she could see him with just such a short interaction, there was no way he needed to spend so much time to chase after her.
He was just a bit angry.
Nan Hua's black obsidian pupils stared straight in Long Qian Xing's direction, taking a clear and closer look at his appearance. She stepped forward and reached out her hand to hug him.
Long Qian Xing froze.
This was the first time Nan Hua was so active in their relationship, making him rather nervous and awkward. He really didn't know where he was supposed to place his hand and what he should do.
The softness in front of his body made him feel warm and comfortable. There was a faint fragrance coming from Nan Hua, it smells like flower, very sweet and comforting.
After a second of hesitation, Long Qian Xing lowered his hand and hugged Nan Hua carefully. She was shorter than him but not so small that it was difficult to reach. Instead, she was carefully wrap in his arms.
It was nice.
Nan Hua raised her head and looked at Long Qian Xing's face. From this position, she could hear his heartbeat clearer. At the same time, she could see his handsome appearance from up close.
His arms were wrapped on her back, holding her steadily and firmly. It felt as if she was being protected and that nothing could ever touch her. For some reasons, she liked this feeling.
"Brother Long," Nan Hua called out.
Long Qian Xing's pupil trembled slightly. He lowered his head and saw Nan Hua staring at him. Her expression looked really innocent and trusting, making him wanted to do bad things.
Forcing himself to calm down, he raised his hand and patted Nan Hua's head.
"Hua'er."
"I'm not going to leave, so you don't have to be jealous," Nan Hua said seriously.
Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua in his arms, feeling really comfortable. There was a faint smile in his eyes. "Yes, Hua'er."
Nan Hua showed a faint smile and slowly released her arms.
Even though Long Qian Xing really wanted to hold Nan Hua much longer, he was worried that Nan Hua would not be comfortable. To hug someone when they were not married yet, this era didn't actually allow it.
So, Long Qian Xing really didn't dare to overstep his bounds and do something that might be detrimental.
"Eat something, Brother Long. Tomorrow will be a long battle," Nan Hua reminded softly.
"I will." Long Qian Xing smiled.
Nan Hua nodded and then leave the tent.
On the other hand, Long Qian Xing looked at his hand, still reeling in the feeling from just now. He felt that being angry of Fang Sheng Lin's teasing was actually quite useful. At the very least, he was able to hug Nan Hua.
And it was her initiative!
The corner of Long Qian Xing's lips curled up, showing a rather silly smile.
If subordinates were here, they would be stupid. Is this person who smiled so stupidly truly their general? Why did they feel that their general had become so stupid?
None of them would believe that the general they respected so much would be smiling so stupidly after being hugged.
They also wouldn't want to admit it.
Who's this stupid man?
Definitely not their general!
