Apocalypse: My Sweetie Is Tough but Cute
Chapter 276 - Chapter 276 Chapter 275 Let Go of That Girl (2)

Chapter 276: Chapter 275: Let Go of That Girl (2) Chapter 276: Chapter 275: Let Go of That Girl (2) Ever since that night, after seeing the sentence Xiao’ai pieced together, Su Shu hasn’t had a good night’s sleep for the past two days.

Tang Zelin finally managed to find some time to come see her and was surprised to see her eyes looking like a national treasure.

“What happened here, haven’t slept well?” As he closed the door and came in, taking off his coat, he didn’t forget to tease her, “I wasn’t around these past few days, what bad things did you do to have such dark circles?”

Pinching her nose bridge, Su Shu lacked energy, “What would you like to drink?”

“Some cold water will do.”

“There’s boiled cold water, it’s clean.”

“That’s fine.” He wasn’t picky.

She wasn’t herself today; usually a couple of his jokes would get her back at him, but today there was no reaction. Taking the glass of water Su Shu handed him, he looked her over seriously, and her complexion didn’t look too good.

“Looking all deflated, wilted?”

Su Shu sat down on a stool next to her, propped her face with her hands and had a spacey look.

After Tang Zelin took a sip, he gently tapped Su Shu’s head with the bottom of the water glass.

“Su Shu, kiddo, your brother is asking you something. What’s going on, why so wilted?”

Su Shu sat on the stool, face propped up and looking up, and out of nowhere said, “Group Captain Tang, have you ever felt really scared?”

“Huh?” Tang Zelin’s mouth twitched. What kind of question was that?

Before he could answer, Su Shu spoke for him.

“Well, you’re so formidable, why would you ever feel scared.”

“Has anyone been bothering you lately?” Tang Zelin asked, his expression darkening with concern for her safety.

Seeing his face change, Su Shu knew he had gotten the wrong idea and hurried to explain: “Not what you’re thinking. The mountain is quite safe, no one bothers me.” Even if they did, she had ways to deal with it.

“Then what’s going on, tell me. Otherwise, I won’t feel at ease seeing you like this.”

Although Tang Zelin spoke seriously, he couldn’t hide the concern in his words.

Su Shu’s face turned slightly red, hesitating whether or not to tell him about Xiao’ai.

Tang Zelin saw her eyes darting around and had no idea what she was thinking; he lowered his voice sternly.

“Su Shu?”

“Yes?”

“What am I to you?”

Su Shu was startled, “Huh?” After a pause, “The group captain.”

Tang Zelin glared at her with a look of exasperation, “Aside from being the group captain, what am I to you?”

To her?

A benefactor!

The most respected person in her heart, in her past life and this one!

Tang Zelin’s expression was turning grim.

The truth is in one’s eyes, and in Su Shu’s big watery eyes at that moment, there was not a hint of deep affection, instead, the way she looked at him was no different from the soldiers under his command.

She was practically one step away from standing at attention and saluting him!

Tang Zelin narrowed his eyes and curved the corners of his lips, “Don’t tell me you were about to say I am the person you respect the most.”

Su Shu gave an awkward smile, “How did you know that’s what I wanted to say.”

The man let out a cold snort.

“Indeed, I am the group captain, but I am also the man you’re yet to marry!” Tang Zelin poked her forehead, a look of heartache on the senior colonel’s face. What to do if his wife is so adorably foolish?

Su Shu’s mouth twitched…

It felt like there was a saying stuck in her throat that she just had to get out…

His keen eyes flashed sharply, “What’s wrong? The marriage application is already submitted, there’s no backing out now!”

“That…”

“Yes?”

“Is it you who’s not yet stepped through the door, or is it me?” Su Shu wore a mischievous “smile” with a hint of troublemaking.

“…”

He takes back what he just said!
