Chapter 864: Careless
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Zhou Xuan knew very well that if the usually calm Shan Yue could say such things, this matter must be no small matter.
Zhou Xuan suppressed his curiosity and did not probe further. He knew that when the time was right, Shan Yue would naturally take the initiative to say it.
“Shan Yue, I’ve long sensed that your experience is not simple, but so what?”
Although Zhou Xuan could not help Shan Yue for the time being, he still expressed his determination. “I’ve never cared about anything. As long as the two of us can be together forever, I’ll face all the difficulties with you.”
After that, the two of them stopped talking. Their eyes met, and an ambiguous atmosphere filled the air between them.
Zhou Xuan lifted Shan Yue’s chin lightly. When he saw Shan Yue’s fresh and full lips, his Adam’s apple bobbed, and his eyes burned.
Being stared at by such a lustful gaze, Shan Yue did not avoid it at all. Instead, she took the initiative to lean in Zhou Xuan’s direction. This was clearly an invitation filled with temptation.
The two of them could clearly feel each other’s breathing. When she sensed Zhou Xuan slowly bending down, Shan Yue closed her eyes and turned her head slightly. Just as their lips were about to touch, something unexpected happened again.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The continuous explosions outside interrupted their movements.
Shan Yue instinctively became vigilant and pulled Zhou Xuan to the wall to observe the situation outside.
At this moment, their minds were all focused on the outside world. They no longer had any romantic thoughts.
Shan Yue immediately opened the door and came out of the house with Zhou Xuan. She looked at the flames in the distance and heard explosions and gunshots one after another. Without a doubt, the battle had broken out again, but fortunately, it had nothing to do with them this time.
Right on the heels of that, Ye Ying, Chang Ling, Yu Feng, and the others all came out of the house. The explosion woke everyone in the group up.
Even though this battle had nothing to do with them, the mercenaries quickly raised their guard. All the combat ready personnel were on duty and entered Level 1 combat state again.
“Chang Ling, investigate immediately and see which side caused the explosion just now.”
Seeing the situation in front of him, Ye Ying didn’t hesitate at all and immediately issued an order. “Yu Feng, increase the number of people guarding the periphery. Although we’re not the ones participating in the war now, we can’t let our guard down.”
“Yes, Boss Ye,” Chang Ling and Yu Feng replied in unison. Then, they immediately set off to complete the mission.
“Elder Qiao, let all the unrelated people return to the house. There’s no need to panic. No matter what happens, 1 will definitely ensure everyone’s safety.”
“Understood.”
At night, even if there was no war, the corps were busy, preventing accidents from happening.
Two minutes later, Chang Ling ran back, panting. “Boss Ye, we’ve already investigated. The two sides fighting are Jiang Huai and Cang Xin. According to the current situation, Jiang Huai’s sneak attack at night surprised the other party. In addition, the firepower is very fierce, so they caught Cang Xin off guard. Cang Xin’s side is retreating step by step. The situation is not optimistic.”
“Jiang Huai and Cang Xin?” Ye Ying repeated this sentence and was filled with emotions. “What’s wrong with Country H? First, Duo Feng joined forces with many forces to start a war with me. It wasn’t easy for the war to end, but these two people fought again. With such frequent wars, only innocent citizens and soldiers who died in battle were implicated for nothing.”
“That’s right. Jiang Huai has always been difficult to fight in the past. As long as it’s not necessary, he won’t take the initiative to start a war.”
Chang Ling added, “What’s wrong with him today? First, he took the initiative to send troops to attack us, then he attacked Cang Xin wantonly. This is too unlike his style of doing things.”
“That’s right. Jiang Huai has been lying low for so long and suddenly exploded. He must be planning something.” Ye Ying placed a hand on his chin, deep in thought.
“Although I don’t know these two very well, based on what happened during this period of time, the reason why the two of them started a war might be because Cang Xin sent troops to wipe out all of Jiang Huai’s men in our battle with Duo Feng. That’s why Jiang Huai held a grudge. New enmity and old enmity led to tonight’s tragedy..”
