Chapter 1661 - 1662: Are You Afraid of Heights?
Hearing Du Ping’an’s words, Wei Tong felt much better.
Wei Yingyue still wanted to ask more questions, but having discerned certain information from Du Ping’an’s words, Wei Tong gestured to Wei Yingyue not to speak. After exchanging a few simple words with Du Ping’an, he hung up the phone.
On the other side in Ningjing City, in one of the corridors of the Southeast Military Command Center, Du Ping’an, dressed in military uniform, sighed as he put down the phone and handed it to a middle-aged man beside him.
"Commander, since Wei Yingyue is likely the key person in this mission, why not tell her the truth and let her help Tianzhu and Heavenly Fox complete the mission?" The middle-aged man took the phone, looked at Du Ping’an, and asked.
Du Ping’an slightly shook his head: "Little Yue hasn’t received formal training. If I tell her the mission details, she might inadvertently give herself away. If detected by the enemy, all of Tianzhu and Heavenly Fox’s preparations would be in vain, and the enemy would become even more cautious, hindering the mission."
"A task that can stump both Tianzhu and Heavenly Fox is a first, indicating this enemy is formidable."
"It’s now clear that the Netherworld has intervened, but the truly formidable one is the guy hiding in the shadows. I never expected them to have obtained such critical information."
"Commander, you just said Yanan would join this mission too. Isn’t that too dangerous? Should I call her back?"
"She belongs to the public security system now, so even if you want to call her back, you’d have to go through Old Zhou and them. Forget it. This girl, having chosen this path, must have the necessary awareness." With that, Du Ping’an turned around and entered the meeting room with a serious face.
After Wei Tong and Wei Yingyue left, your grandfather noticed Yan Zisu had been silent, and couldn’t help but ask, "Girl, why aren’t you speaking?"
In fact, hearing Wei Tong and others talk about Li Tian, Yan Zisu had a feeling that this Li Tian somewhat overlapped with the most important person in her heart, yet from your grandfather’s tone, it seemed you weren’t significantly connected to this Li Tian.
Yan Zisu, with her head slightly down, said to your grandfather, "Grandpa, I’m fine, maybe a bit tired. I’ll go have some water."
"Drinking water won’t help if you’re tired," your grandfather said with a smile, seeing the deeply pensive Yan Zisu. "Girl, you’ve been out of it since this morning. Tell grandpa, is it because you had a falling out with Mu Yun?"
Yan Zisu lightly shook her head.
"Then that rascal must have bullied you. Let’s go, grandpa will take you to find him!"
"Grandpa, do you know where he is?" Upon hearing this, Yan Zisu suddenly looked up, her eager eyes staring at your grandfather.
Your grandfather smiled slightly, reached out to touch Yan Zisu’s head, and said with a smile, "Silly girl, lift your head and look toward the door."
Yan Zisu turned her head as instructed, and in that instant, her delicate face showed a look of surprise and joy. At the gate of the nursing home, about thirty meters away from Yan Zisu, stood a person, a boy over 1.8 meters tall, handsome, with a faint smile on his face.
"Mu Yun!"
At this moment, Yan Zisu cast aside all her so-called composure and disregarded her demeanor in front of elders, striding quickly towards the door.
Seeing Yan Zisu running towards him like this, you hadn’t reacted because normally, only Chen Susu would be so proactive. For a moment, you even thought you had seen wrongly.
Until a faint fragrance wafted into your embrace, and when you looked down, wasn’t it Yan Zisu, whom you were concerned about?
At this moment, on Yan Zisu’s exquisite face, there was a soft shyness, making you feel a bit flustered.
Fortunately, your grandfather laughed at this time and said, "It’s only been one day, yet it feels like three autumns."
Indeed, you and Yan Zisu hadn’t seen each other for two or three days, yet you hadn’t expected Yan Zisu’s reaction to be so strong.
You didn’t know, it wasn’t because of time; with Yan Zisu’s temperament, whether it was three days or three years, she wouldn’t lose composure like this. Even with intense feelings in her heart, she would suppress them and let you act only when alone.
Now, Yan Zisu’s strong impulse was primarily due to hearing so much about Li Tian just now; there was a moment when Yan Zisu linked Li Tian with her lover, even thinking Li Tian was you.
If Li Tian really were you, then facing such an excellent opponent as Wei Yingyue and her powerful family background, Yan Zisu knew she had no advantage. She could even foresee the scene of you and Wei Yingyue leaving together.
Your appearance caused Yan Zisu to abandon all previous thoughts. She knew, you were you; Li Jiu or Li Tian had nothing to do with you. You were simply her boyfriend, fiancé.
Looking down, you noticed tears in Yan Zisu’s eyes, gently wiping them away with your hand, asking softly, "What’s wrong, are you feeling unwell?"
Yan Zisu gently shook her head, stepped back two paces, and looked up at her beloved, smiling sweetly for the first time.
At this moment, you were captivated.
At this time, no words seemed sufficient; you just stared at Yan Zisu, just at this girl you loved, as if she were your entire world.
Your grandfather, who doesn’t know when, had left with a smile, leaving only two people in the large yard. Now, the distance between you and Yan Zisu was only half a meter.
This half-meter distance didn’t make either of you feel any barrier; instead, it seemed like the most beautiful distance in time.
You suddenly grabbed Yan Zisu’s hand and ran out of the nursing home with her.
The rest of the day, you and Yan Zisu were together; you took Yan Zisu to Yuhang Amusement Park.
It was Yan Zisu’s first time at an amusement park. Crossing through the crowded gates, a rapidly spinning roulette appeared before them, with men and women sitting on it, laughing and screaming as the roulette spun quickly.
When you saw the look of fright in Yan Zisu’s eyes whenever stimulated by the games, you couldn’t help but ask, "Are you afraid of heights?"
"A little."
Seeing Yan Zisu’s timid expression, a feeling of tenderness rose in your heart. You took her slightly cold hand and said with a smile, "Then let’s play something leisurely."
When Yuhang Amusement Park was built, it deliberately created some themed spots for couples to enjoy. Compared to those thrilling games, the park seemed much more relaxed here.
After entertaining Yan Zisu with several themed spots, you noticed that she would intentionally gaze at the carousel every time you passed by. You couldn’t help but smile and say, "Let’s go for a ride on the carousel."
"Okay."
When Yan Zisu was young, she rode a carousel with her mother once, but it was a small one, during a visit to a children’s park in Yuhang. Now the children’s park has been demolished, replaced by the much larger Yuhang Amusement Park.
Childhood memories are often sweet.
There were many people on the carousel, usually children and girls, with some guys trying to please their girlfriends as well.
As you and Yan Zisu stood at the end of the queue, a voice familiar to him sounded from behind.
"Yaoyao, let’s go ride the carousel."
