Chapter 698: Unt.i.tled

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingjiu glanced at Helian Niancheng, and the latter looked over with the same gaze.

There was a baffled look in his eyes.

Embarra.s.sed, Gu Qingjiu rubbed towards Helian Niancheng. “I’m used to calling you that.. can’t change.”

“You’ll have to change, eventually. Or else in the future, you’ll find you can’t even call him

‘hubby.’

”

Huo Yingcheng was too blunt.

Gu Qingjiu’s face blushed at the mention of the word hubby.

If she couldn’t even greet him by his name now, Gu Qingjiu dare not imagine having to call him

‘hubby’

in the future.

She s.h.i.+vered.

But next to her, someone seemed to feel this was an issue well-raised, and his deep eyes narrowed with joy as he said, “Yeah, you should change the way you address me.”

Gu Qingjiu was speechless.

She pinched the soft flesh on Helian Niancheng’s waist lightly and immediately changed the topic, continuing with what they talked about before this. “Commander Huo, you haven’t told me if by Old Master you’re referring to Chief Instructor’s grandfather.”

“Of course.”

Huo Yingcheng seemed to answer every one of Gu Qingjiu’s questions. “Back then, it was Old Master’s idea to have Major-general exiled. Despite this, his heart ached for Major-general. Or else why did you think Major-general could live so leisurely going to those places? Right, Qingjiu? Hahahahaha….”

He seemed very pa.s.sionate about exposing Helian Niancheng’s matters.

In other words, he lost his senses.

Only until a dark aura and stern gaze came closer did his laughter trail off.

Huo Yingcheng instantly sat upright and acted as a righteous person.

Gu Qingjiu, however, was very keen on hearing Helian Niancheng’s past, even if she was already aware of the reason Helian Niancheng was exiled.

But she wanted to understand more.

Her calmness of the past seemed to turn into more agitated emotions as their relations.h.i.+p deepened.

She naturally wanted to understand more and more.

But it was apparent that for fear of the imposing Helian Niancheng, Huo Yingcheng likely wouldn’t continue to spill.

She decided to find out more from him in private when she had the opportunity.

This was Penalan’s capital, and it was Gu Qingjiu’s first time around.

They chatted for a bit, following which she gazed out the car window at the scenery as she wasn’t feeling sleepy.

Penalan’s scenery was gorgeous, and seeing it with her own eyes, Gu Qingjiu then realized that it was as beautiful as people said it was.

It was like those photos her father brought back when she was a child. Penalan was a city that placed a significant focus on aesthetics, and it was nice and green all around.

There were large patches of flower fields in the city center, and even with all sorts of colors together, it didn’t give off a messy impression.

Instead, these flower fields decorated every corner of this city and were oddly perfect together with the tall buildings.

Mainly of European style, the city scenery was spectacular.

It would be pretty good if she could live there.

This thought suddenly came to Gu Qingjiu. But instantly, she recalled she had many matters to be busy with, and she decided it might be something she would consider once she got older.

She let out a sigh inwardly.

Next to her, Helian Niancheng had his head lowered as he looked at his phone. It seemed like he was reading some information.

Seduced by his tranquil and gorgeous manner, Gu Qingjiu suddenly had an urge after sneaking a glance at Huo Yingcheng, who was asleep. She turned Helian Niancheng’s head towards her and planted a kiss on his thin lips.

Huo Yingcheng, who happened to open his eyes in an untimely manner: “…”

He grieved for himself inwardly before silently closing his eyes shut again.

These two people were indeed such a turnoff for single people like him!
