Chapter 148: 152 Who just walked away?
Wen Nian leaned against the tree trunk, holding Song Lili in his arms, his eyes below the mask tightly fixed on her...
Ali... Yeah, how could you be so amazing? So amazing that I can’t even believe it... How much homework did you do without me knowing, huh?
But... your friends said you’re unhappy, why... you wanted to apply for the military academy, haven’t you got what you wished for...
"Xiaonian... how did you get into the mountains? Are you... from the military district? Where did you get the uniform you’re wearing?"
Song Lili stopped talking in her sleep, her breathing also quieted down a lot. Lin Xinglan saw her condition improving and became more curious about Wen Nian, so she unconsciously started to ask more questions.
Wen Nian reached out again to touch Lili’s forehead and cheek, making sure the situation was turning for the better, and then said to Lin Xinglan,
"Don’t tell her I was here."
"Huh?"
"This place is a blind spot in the selection area. It rained earlier, and you all deviated from the main path. I am an outsider, and my appearance won’t do you or Xiao Hua any good in the selection."
"What do you mean?"
"Having an outsider involved would be considered cheating."
"But you’re the person she calls for even in her unconscious state. She would be so moved to know you came to help her! If Duan Chen showed up when I was in dire straits, I would be ready to die for him right away..."
She muttered the last half of the sentence under her breath.
"She’s so stubborn; if she finds out she cheated, she won’t want that achievement."
That really hit the nail on the head.
Lin Xinglan thought about it, and based on her understanding of Song Lili, she felt that Song Lili had both good and bad aspects. It was uncertain whether she’d deem the process unimportant, but... Xiaonian was right, she is stubborn, and what if she’s truly upright?
So far, she understood Song Lili, but that understanding surely couldn’t compare to Xiaonian’s, right?
Lin Xinglan indeed had this self-awareness.
"Can you do it?"
"Uh... are there other reasons?"
Although Lin Xinglan felt that Wen Nian’s reason was solid, she still felt like something was missing.
"There are, but I can’t tell you."
Wen Nian’s honesty made it impossible for Lin Xinglan to question further.
"So... I hope you can keep this secret for me."
"I promise you!"
Lin Xinglan thought Wen Nian was a straightforward person, so she naturally had to be generous in return!
"But when Xiao Hua wakes up, she will definitely not believe that I could have rescued her... She..."
"You can say that the soldiers from the military district wanted to save Shen Lingxi, so they also rescued you guys by chance."
Lin Xinglan nodded. That seemed feasible.
"Eh... but... Shen Lingxi, she..."
"She is so smart, she won’t say anything."
Wen Nian was not the least bit worried, his tone light and breezy.
Lin Xinglan really, really wanted to see the face behind that mask...
A face that could produce such a gentle voice and perform such manly acts.
Wen Nian suddenly stood up, letting Song Lili lean against the spread-out sleeping bag. Lin Xinglan then saw Wen Nian throw the rope down and stand at the entrance to the cave,
"You’re so smart, you can climb up."
"..."
Shen Lingxi looked at him, longed to tear off his mask, and wanted to see what kind of expression lay beneath it at that moment...
She had many questions she wanted to ask him, but she also knew in her heart that he would not answer a single one.
Giving her a way out must be the last mercy from this man, right?
Thinking so, she ultimately watched in silence as Wen Nian left.
He left without looking back.
Lin Xinglan watched his tall figure fade away, then looked at Tang Xiaohua... Both were enigmatic people.
Song Lili opened her eyes groggily just after Wen Nian left. In her blurry vision, there was still a patch of military green, an old-fashioned Xilin Military Uniform! She suddenly widened her eyes, her vision becoming sharp, but... apart from the deep night, nothing else could be seen.
"Xiao Hua! You’re awake!"
The excited call from Lin Xinglan echoed in her ears.
Song Lili rubbed her head and looked at Lin Xinglan, asking,
"The person who just left... who was it?"
