Chapter 804 Strangely Hot
"Okay."
Lu Qingyou verbally agreed, but she didn't move much.
Bai Yunan tightened his grip on the steering wheel without him realizing it.
He told himself not to get angry and to restrain himself.
Lu Qingyou cast a cautious glance at him before quickly averting her gaze, as if she were a thief.
She turned her head to look out the window and realized that they were neither heading to the mansion nor to her rented house.
"Yunan, where are you taking me?" she asked, although she was a bit afraid.
The atmosphere in the car was strange, and she felt uneasy.
Without turning his head, Bai Yunan said, "It's best if you don't talk right now."
At a loss for words, Lu Qingyou shrank her neck and looked out the window.
Fine, let's not talk then.
...
The car drove through the streets and alleys, heading towards the outskirts and becoming more and more remote.
Even though Lu Qingyou wasn't very sharp, she understood where Bai Yunan was taking her.
She had pestered him before and followed him once.
Although Bai Yunan was usually gentle with her, he was strict in the military.
When she insisted on coming with him, he directly handed her over to his subordinates and trained with them.
She trained with them for a half day and felt as though she had narrowly avoided death.
After that, she never bothered him to come to the military area again.
Even if she wanted to come, she would find Bai Mingxu or her own father.
He drove the car in and got out first, walking to her side and opening the passenger door for her. He didn't say a word, just looked at her, indicating for her to get out of the car.
Lu Qingyou took one look at him and assumed that he was upset because he didn't even want to speak to her.
She quickly exited the vehicle, however, and followed Bai Yunan to his office without pausing. She timidly trailed behind him, looking like a submissive wife with her frail and thin frame.
Along the way, the soldiers saluted Bai Yunan and looked curiously at Lu Qingyou.
They were merely curious, with no malign intent.
Lu Qingyou returned the greeting with a smile and a small nod.
Although this place was not far from Jingcheng City, it was strictly managed. They could only go out a few times a year, and the days they saw women were few and far between.
Especially someone like Lu Qingyou, who was young and beautiful, and looked innocent and lovely.
Lu Qingyou would appeal to a lot of men because of her appearance.
Bai Yunan felt that something was off with the soldiers today. He turned his head and glanced at Lu Qingyou, understanding what was going on. His face darkened, and he stopped to wait for her.
When she caught up, he grabbed her hand and quickly walked toward the office.
Since there were no women in the military, they would be thrilled even to see a female insect.
But he had official business to attend to and had to come here. If Lu Qingyou dared to lie to him, he couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't run away by the time he turned around to find her.
In the office, Bai Yunan pointed to a nearby couch and said, "Find a place to sit and pour yourself a glass of water."
"Okay." Although Lu Qingyou is usually vivacious, in this serious setting, she was quite well-behaved.
She seemed particularly obedient and like a good child, which Bai Yunan found endearing.
As Lu Qingyou sat there, she felt bored and took out her phone to read comics.
In the two hours since they had arrived, Bai Yunan had remained seated, making a few phone calls and flipping through something without getting up.
When he was working, Bai Yunan became even more serious, but also more attractive.
Lu Qingyou's gaze unconsciously shifted from her phone to him.
For several years, it was difficult for her to see Bai Yunan.
Usually, when she went to find him, he had already gone to another place due to mission orders.
In the end, she could only go back alone.
But every time Bai Yunan returned, he would go to her school first to see her.
He would inform her before going on a mission and would be the first to see her when he returned. It was their little secret.
After a while, Bai Yunan received a phone call. His face turned serious as he said a few words and hung up. Then he called a soldier in and said, "Prepare for a meeting immediately."
As he stood up to leave, he remembered that Lu Qingyou was still in the room.
He turned his head and looked toward the couch, meeting Lu Qingyou's gaze directly.
She was staring at him with her eyes sparkling like stars.
Her gaze was too much for him to handle; it made him feel strangely hot.
He quickly walked up to her and peered down at her from above. "I'll have someone take you to my room to rest. I have an urgent meeting now, and I might have to go on a mission later."
Lu Qingyou sat up straight, straightening her back, and firmly replied, "Okay." Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
She had a tendency to be rebellious and mischievous, but when it came to his work, she was especially submissive.
Because she knew that the man she liked was doing the most meaningful thing in the world.
Many people thought that with Bai Yunan's family background, he only needed to sit in the office and drink tea, occasionally going on missions that weren't too dangerous.
However, Bai Yunan had a sense of responsibility and duty. He was a strong and upright man, and his military rank was earned with his life. He faced danger and drove away the unseen darkness.
Bai Yunan's gaze softened as he noticed how submissive she was. He couldn't help but reach out and touch her head, wishing she was always this well-behaved.
While he went to the meeting room alone, he had someone take Lu Qingyou to his dorm.
Bai Yunan was an officer, so he lived in a single dormitory.
There were few things in the room, and she looked around bored while lying on the bed and thinking. Before long, she fell asleep.
She slept until the afternoon.
When she checked her phone, she realized it was almost 2.00PM. She saw a message from Bai Yunan sent at 12.00PM.
"Go to the cafeteria to eat if you're hungry. I'm in a meeting."
She remembered that Bai Yunan had mentioned that he might go on a mission.
He had to have come across something serious.
At this moment, he was probably still in the meeting.
Although she didn't visit frequently with Bai Yunan, she had visited this location numerous times with her father and was familiar with it. So she made her way alone to the cafeteria.
When she arrived at the cafeteria, she saw Bai Yunan and his team.
They ate quickly, all wearing military uniforms, with their heads bowed and forks tapping on their plates to make a "ding ding" sound.
Bai Yunan looked up and saw her. He frowned slightly and gestured for her to come over.
Lu Qingyou pointed to the food that she wanted at the food counter and walked over quickly.
By the time she finished getting her food and came over, there was only Bai Yunan at the table.
Even though Lu Qingyou was accustomed to their rapid eating, she couldn't help but be amazed.
