Chapter 905: Chapter 905 - 906: Only the Good News
Hearing the heartache in Cheng Su’s tone, Qi Taiguo felt both sour and swollen inside, and directly pulled her head down to kiss her lips.
After the kiss, he looked at her and said, "It doesn’t hurt. As long as I think of you, it doesn’t hurt."
Cheng Su gave him a playful look, and seeing that scar again, she wondered what he had gone through at the time. These scars all represented his achievements; nothing could be more convincing than that.
So, while others envied his rapid rise to his position at a young age, how could they know that he exchanged it with his life?
"I’m serious," Qi Taiguo said, "Whenever I think of you, I feel that all the suffering and hardship are nothing."
He wasn’t lying to comfort her. Thinking of her, their family, and their yet-to-be-seen child, he didn’t feel the pain, and he was willing to fight for it.
"I believe you." Cheng Su rubbed her cheek against his.
Qi Taiguo then said, "Lie down and talk with me."
"Okay." Cheng Su obediently lay down.
The two lay on their sides, looking at each other, clearly seeing each other’s shadows, and felt content.
"I got a First Class Merit Medal. It’s quite possible that next year my epaulettes will get three stars," Qi Taiguo said joyfully.
"Congratulations, you certainly deserve it." Cheng Su grabbed his hand, kissed it, and smiled.
"Yes, in the mission..." Qi Taiguo talked about the final assessment task this time, mentioning those human containers and the children who died as a result. The anger and cold sharpness he carried made Cheng Su empathize deeply.
Cheng Su tightly held his hand and said, "They will all get what they deserve. You’ve already ambushed them."
"Yes." Qi Taiguo nodded again and told her about the hardships of training and his insights, but the only thing he omitted was the injustices, conspiracies, and schemes he encountered.
He only wanted to present the good things to her, not wanting her to worry with him.
"You’ve worked hard." Cheng Su pecked his lips again and said sincerely.
Qi Taiguo returned the peck, feeling that everything was worth it, as long as she was safe and happy with a smile.
"I also went to the Ning Family." Qi Taiguo added, "From now on, I’m officially stepping into the Ning Family’s camp. Are you afraid?"
From ancient times, whether civil or military, there’s always been a struggle for power and position. By aligning with Ning Gang, it was equivalent to standing on his side, sharing both glory and loss.
"If you’re not afraid, then why should I be? As long as you’re here, I’m not afraid." Cheng Su laughed, "As long as you think it’s right, I’ll support you." Qi Taiguo was moved and pulled her over, saying, "I knew you were different from other women."
Cheng Su rubbed against him.
"How about your side? In the months I’ve been away, has anything happened?" Qi Taiguo asked.
"Everything’s fine. Guiying had a son, Chen Shouwang and Hualing made up, the business in the factory is going well and steadily improving. As for myself, there’s nothing more to say. You came to pick me up from university today; I’m an official university student!" Cheng Su giggled.
He had just returned, so she only picked the good news to share. As for the unpleasant and troublesome things, they weren’t a big deal and there was no rush to talk about them later.
Besides, they just reunited after being apart, and it was as sweet as newlywed bliss, so why let those annoying things spoil the good mood?
"Speaking of university, who was that man by your side today?" Qi Taiguo asked with a face full of mischief.
"My senior, you’ve met him, the one we ran into in Maple Town last year. Coincidentally, he turned out to be my senior, too... Hey, are you possibly jealous?" Cheng Su raised an eyebrow.
Qi Taiguo pretended to snort, and Cheng Su moved closer to tease him. The two laughed and played, eventually turning into whispered sweet nothings...
