Gong Jie gave him a teasing look.

The latter whistled awkwardly and said, “She made it up.”

“Got it.”

How could the man not tell that he didn’t mean what he said?

Hua Jin snorted inwardly.

What the hell! The man looks fine fine!

He could see no broken arms or legs as he had imagined. He thought that Gong Jie was severely injured and trapped in East Africa, but what was this? His legs were fine, and his hands were fine. All along the way here, he had prepared to bawl his eyes out, but now his tears had no outlet!

He wouldn’t have come if he had known. He even took such a huge risk.

But…

Although annoyed, he was relieved to see that Gong Jie was well and only slightly injured. Before this, he did not know if his injuries were serious. Nothing was as important as seeing that the person was safe.

…

“The FBI has deployed many people to be stationed outside the hospital. From what I’ve observed, the hospital is surrounded by more than twenty agents. It’s unclear how many are outside the hospital grounds.”

Alice and Gong Jie sat facing each other. The huge ward was filled with mercenaries.

Feeling a headache coming on, Gong Jie massaged his forehead and said, “They won’t stop until they capture me.”

“Coming up with all sorts of methods just to bring you back to the Nuremberg Military Court. I think those judges are all ready! If they can bring you to trial, they probably will be able to immediately retire with honors!”

“That’s not the problem.” He looked out the window thoughtfully. “I’m only thinking about one other problem at the moment.”

“Eh?” Alice looked at him in confusion. “What problem?”

He looked at her meaningfully. “Do you remember what day tomorrow is?”

“Tomorrow?” Alice was a little stunned by this!

“That’s right.”

Is tomorrow some kind of important day? Alice raised her wristwatch and looked at the date on it. She calculated the date for tomorrow and couldn’t think of any important day.

“Is there anything important tomorrow?” Alice looked blank.

Gong Jie snorted disdainfully and beckoned to her with his finger. “Come here.”

Curious, Alice moved closer to him. He pinched her nose and flicked his finger against her forehead forcefully. “It’s my birthday tomorrow, dummy!”

Alice covered her forehead in pain, but her eyes flashed when she heard what Gong Jie said.

She slapped her palm against her forehead. “Ah, how could I forget? It’s your birthday tomorrow. I’m probably still jet-lagged.”

“Hmph, I just think it’s not something you care about.”

“I do care!”

“Where’s my present?” Like a child, he extended his palm, faced up, towards her, asking for a present.

Alice braced herself and replied, “I didn’t prepare a gift.”

The man gave her a sidelong glance, clearly expressing his displeasure.

Behind him, the actor watched silently, feeling that there was an indescribable chemistry between the two of them. It was said that the two of them had known each other for a long time and had gone through ups and downs together. This kind of chemistry wasn’t something that could be cultivated overnight.

Moreover…

Alice had sacrificed so much for him.

At one time when Gong Jie was infected with a virus, Alice had used her own body to experiment with a vaccine in order to save him. If it were not for her, he would not have survived the viral infection. Because her body had suffered the destruction brought about by the experiment, she had lost her fertility.

Gong Jie, however, did not know about this.
