He had heard about Adjutant Nan a lot from his subordinates. And after knowing about Nan Hua's identity, he asked them to investigate what they could know about this adjutant behavior and so on.
There was many information about Nan that Long Qian Xing didn't pay close attention before. In the past, he only thought that Nan was a body double and bodyguard that Old Master Nan arranged to protect Nan Luo.
Out of respect, he didn't investigate much.
After all, many of his men also came from various background and it was not easy for him to investigate other people's background. Especially in this era where it was human's words that held the highest position.

It was harder to detect.
But from the information gathered, he found a few points about Nan Hua that he never thought before.
Knowing that Nan Hua often disappeared without telling anyone, he guessed that she would be leaving today. She had told him about her itinerary before, but she was not very clear about the time.
Long Qian Xing could only infer based on the information that he had gathered.
Because of that, he told his soldiers to prepare for their departure and waited here.
And after he came, he noticed the man who came out with bag and horse yet not leaving. It seemed that the man was waiting for someone else and Long Qian Xing guessed that he might be waiting for Nan Hua.
'That man...'
Nan Hua blinked her eyes, feeling that Long Qian Xing was acting strange today. She didn't think that she had said anything weird to him, so what happened to him?
After a while, Nan Hua chose to put the matter to the back of her mind. There was no point dwelling on it.
...
The journey could be said to be relaxing. It was so much that the soldiers rarely felt that their commander was quite humane this time. Usually, they would have to go at the fastest speed possible, making a few new soldiers vomited because of the long exercise.
This time, they didn't feel that tired.
What they didn't know was that Long Qian Xing was enjoying the rare company of his little fiancée. It was rare for her to come, so when she did come, how could he not try to extend the time a bit more?
Though, he didn't dare to delay that much and only used a somewhat normal pace to go. After all, there were still military matters that he had to finish.
"Do you like to travel on your own, Adjutant Nan?" Long Qian Xing asked after their short lunch, which was only to stop for a while and take out their ration. It was not exactly a luxurious meal, but it was enough to fill their stomach.
They would only stop and cook when it was night time. Everyone in the army was already familiar with this arrangement.
"It's normal." Nan Hua was not used to be with other people.
It was mostly because of her bad experience when traveling with her so called comrades in her past life. Everyone wanted the merit for themselves so that they would be allowed to live longer even though many of them didn't even know why they still persisted.
There were even times when they break down during mission and had to be left behind to die or they would drag the others down. Everyone was selfish and only cared for themselves and the mission's completion.
If the mission was not completed, they couldn't return or they would be punished with death.
If their so called comrades fell, they would not care in the slightest bit.
That was the previous relationship that Nan Hua had with others. There were no one who could be trusted nor treated with real sincerity.
