Qi Anran pursed his lips and nodded without saying more.
Huo Yizhen did not continue to entangle her on this topic. He stared at Qi Anran's haggard face and said distressedly: "I'm sorry."
"Why apologize suddenly?"
"I clearly promised not to hide anything from you, but I didn't tell you anything, which made you so sad. In the past few months, people have been carrying the children to bear so much suffering and blame. I am not a good husband. Not a good father either."
"But you are a good general." Qi Anran thought that when she saw Huo Yizhen again, she would feel a little unhappy in her heart, but when she really met Huo Yizhen again, she realized that all this was not so important.
As long as he is alive, as long as he can stand in front of him alive like this and talk to himself, those right and wrong are not so important.
"Perhaps, you are not a good father to a child, but you are a proud hero. The same is true for me. No matter what it is for this time, I am proud of you."
When Huo Yizhen heard Qi Anran say this, he only felt that a warm current flowed through his heart, dispelling all the anxiety and uncertainty before that.
Seeing Huo Yizhen’s face eased, Qi Anran couldn’t help but smile a little, and continued: “But, what is going on? The reason why you didn’t say a word before was because you thought about it because of military secrets. Things should be settled now, can you tell me what has happened in the past few months?"
Huo Yizhen nodded and briefly explained what happened after the video with Qi Anran.
Qi Anran heard that Huo Yizhen almost died on the battlefield because of the betrayal of the people around him. Even though he knew that Huo Yizhen was fine now, those were all gone, his heart could not help but chuckle.
"Remember when we weren't there yet, did you ever give me a small item? You threw the item to me at the time and asked me to carry it next to my body. Maybe you can help me when I am. When I went out, I didn’t know what was going on. I took it with a ghost, and kept it close to my chest. Unexpectedly, it really came in handy in the end. An Ran, you saved me again. Life."
Qi Anran was stunned, and suddenly remembered that when they were together for the first time, it seemed that they had saved Huo Yizhen several times by mistake because of his own invention.
Unexpectedly, after more than a year, they experienced a lot of things together, and they went around and finally asked themselves to save him again.
Thinking of this, Qi Anran couldn't help feeling a little more grateful, and his eyes on Huo Yizhen were full of lingering fears.
"thanks."
Huo Yizhen looked blank: "What do you do to thank me?"
"Thank you for taking the things I send you at any time." Thank you even more for being able to come back alive.
Huo Yizhen understood the meaning conveyed in her words, and stared at the people on the phone screen, his eyes as gentle as ever.
The two of them looked at each other across the phone screen for a long time, knowing that they were separated by mountains and rivers, but it was as if the other was right in front of them.
In the end, Qi Anran broke the silence first, and asked with a smile: "What happened after that? You replaced that spy and returned to the Empire, ready to use this as a bait to lure out his associates? So, Mr. Wang Yi Wang really did. It's you! How did you do it? Why did your face at that time..."
