Nan Fei was startled when she heard the creaking sound coming from the man’s tightly clenched fists. Only then did she come back to her senses and remember what she had just said…

She pursed her lips in annoyance. Had her brain been rusty recently.

Zuo Qishen snorted coldly and swept her a cold glance before turning around and walking forward.

Nan Fei bit her lip. The man was tall and had long legs. She had to jog to barely keep up with his pace. As she ran, she barely managed to explain, “Commander Zuo, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to do that just now.”

Zuo Qishen did not look at her. He continued to walk forward without looking away. His pace gradually quickened.

Nan Fei was having some difficulty following him. She sighed silently in her heart.

Commander Zuo was a serious and upright soldier. He had a very righteous outlook on life. He could not be casually flirted with.

Although it was really not intentional, she was indeed in the wrong. She reflected on herself.

She stopped outside the lounge.

“Commander Zuo, I’ve returned your clothes to you. Shall I go back first?”

According to Nan Fei’s experience, the angrier a person was, the more one could not loiter in front of him. No matter how he looked at her when he was angry, she would feel even more stifled in her heart.

Hence, she had better go home. After all, his clothes had already been delivered.

Even though the man took off his sunglasses and sat down, fiddling with the phone in his hand and did not look up at her, Nan Fei still smiled politely at him before turning around.

She respected soldiers very much. After witnessing the scene in the quagmire just now, she respected soldiers even more.

“Nan Fei, you motherf*cker, stop right there!”

Zuo Qishen slammed the phone in his hand on the table and looked at the woman who was about to turn around and leave.

Nan Fei was stunned. She slowly turned around and looked at Zuo Qishen with a friendly smile on her face.

“Commander Zuo, do you need me to come in?” She asked. The corners of her lips curled up, and the mischievous lying silkworm in her eyes flowed out.

She looked very obedient.

Just like two years ago, the beautiful and delicate girl spoke gently like a little kitten.

However, he had forgotten that the cat did not recognize him as its master.

Therefore, as soon as he entered the battlefield, she followed someone else.

Zuo Qishen stared at her for a long time, and a mocking, cold look gradually appeared on his stern face.

“Nan Fei, how many of your words are true?”

Nan Fei was really stunned this time. She looked at Zuo Qishen in a daze.

When she thought about his expression and the tone of his voice, why did she detect a hint of resentment from him?

Could it be that she had done something like abandoning her husband and son in the past?

However, when she counted the eighteen years she had been growing up, she was very sure that she had never seen Zuo Qishen before.

Hence, this must be her illusion.

“Commander Zuo, every word I said and every punctuation mark is true.” After calming herself down, Nan Fei looked at him with a sincere expression.

Zuo Qishen snorted coldly.

“Did you really want to come in just now? Didn’t you want to leave as soon as possible?”

Nan Fei was stunned.

How could he tell?

Her smile was not in place? Her tone was not sincere enough?

Nan Fei pursed her lips. Since she had been seen through, she decided to take the initiative to admit her mistake.

Looking up, her peach blossom eyes were filled with a bright smile. Nan Fei took two steps forward and approached Zuo Qishen.

“Commander Zuo, you looked like you didn’t want to talk to me just now. I’m a very obedient and sensible girl. I just wanted to leave as soon as possible so that I wouldn’t make you unhappy here.”

Zuo Qishen looked at her coldly. His jaw was still taut, and the expression on his face did not change at all.

He held his phone and knocked on the table one after another. He asked, “Then tell me, why don’t I want to talk to you?”
