Chapter 990: ComplacentIt was only the next day that Yu Jin told her soldiers about Jun Hua going for some of her Dark Moon Organization's mission.
Then...
Long Qian Xing came.
"I didn't expect to have reinforcement here, Young Commander Long from Fei Yang Kingdom," Yu Jin greeted the other party with her own way, blunt yet somewhat polite.
Long Qian Xing cupped his fist. "Long Qian Xing greets Queen Yu from the Mountain Tribe."
"Tsk."
Yu Jin could see that Long Qian Xing purposely ignore her taunt. Someone like this who could stay calm in the face of obvious provocation was someone who knew how to control their emotion well.
There was not even a fluctuation.
She didn't like dealing with people like this who smiled despite feeling the opposite.
"I have only conquered this city recently. The soldiers are stationed for defense but I'm sure that those old fogeys will make a move, so do you want to participate in the defense from the city or just in that valley over there?"
Long Qian Xing's lips twitched a bit.
After coming to this world, he rarely met with anyone who could speak so freely like Yu Jin. Most of them were trained ever since they were young to talk covertly and made sure they would never reveal their true intention.
It was a bit tiring to match them at times.
But Long Qian Xing was able to adapt quickly after he had the chance to do so.
"Replying to Queen Yu, I'll set up my soldiers in the valley so that we can deal with the soldiers first." Long Qian Xing smiled politely.
Yu Jin blinked her eyes.
This man was really a tough nut to crack. Anyway, she didn't really want to bully a brat whom she had only met for the first time.

But his inner side was not as calm as he showed on the surface.
He could still remember when he first heard the news of his fiancée's death and everything that happened that day. For many days, he really couldn't sleep because of thinking about this matter.
And at the same time, he realized something.
'I really never thought that I could possibly lose her.'
From the very beginning, the two of them were tied in a marriage agreement. And Long Qian Xing took it for granted, feeling that no matter what happened, there was no way this agreement would be broken.
He didn't have any plan to call it off.
And Nan Hua didn't seem to have that plan either.
So, he had been complacent, doing whatever he wanted without considering the other party's feeling. He thought that she understood him and with some coaxing, everything would be fine.
But he realized that he was wrong.
The agreement was not called off.
But if the bride disappeared, how could they proceed with that agreement?
In front of everyone else, Nan Hua had died. But Long Qian Xing knew very well that she's still alive and the few people who might know where she is are Feng Ao Kuai, Nan Luo, and Old Master Nan.
Neither one of them would ever want to speak to him.
And they didn't even tell him the reason why she wanted to disappear.
"I was too complacent..." Long Qian Xing sighed.
When he found Nan Hua, he will never let her go. Never ever again would he take her presence and their agreement for granted.
All he needed was another chance to see her again.
