Xiao Jing felt that what he said made sense, so she moved closer. As expected, she became even warmer.

Shen Chengfeng coughed softly and her small head was stuck to his chest. He did not know if it was because of her that he felt itchy, or because he could not help but feel itchy. His heart felt like it was being stirred up by a pair of hands, and he felt that his calmness was about to collapse.

Xiao Jing looked at the dark clouds dissipating in the sky, and said in a low voice, "Didn"t the captain say that we can"t violate the laws of nature?"

"If you defrost the river like this, is it a violation of the rules? Will you be struck by lightning?"

"En, review yourself after you go back."

Shen Chengfeng said faintly.

Xiao Jing stared in disbelief, "Why?"

"Sir, in order to save you from the wrath of heaven, do you have any objection to writing five thousand words?"

Xiao Jing was speechless.

Shen Chengfeng continued, "Have you finished your previous review?"

Xiao Jing"s heart skipped a beat as she silently dove her head into the water.

Shen Chengfeng secretly pulled her head out and condescendingly stared at the obviously weak little soldier, "Add another three thousand words."

"Captain, I"ll write it as soon as I get back."

Xiao Jing pursed her lips, feeling wronged.

Shen Chengfeng noticed that the red rash on her neck had disappeared quite a bit. He said, "It seems like there is still some effect."

Xiao Jing wiped her neck. She was indeed no longer as uncomfortable as she was before.

Shen Chengfeng came in front of her and used his forehead to press on hers.

Xiao Jing"s body stiffened. She asked in confusion, "Captain, what do you want to do?"

Shen Chengfeng bluntly said, "Try your temperature."

Xiao Jing couldn"t help but nervously draw back her neck. His face was almost touching her own face, and his warm breath sprinkled onto her face like a humidifier, causing her face to uncontrollably blush red.

Shen Chengfeng nodded, "The temperature has also been reduced a lot."

Xiao Jing blushed as she lowered her head. Two figures were reflected in the water, intertwined together. The two were very close, and with each breath they took, they could clearly see each other"s fluctuating emotions.

"Is it warm?"

The deep voice of a man rose above her.

Xiao Jing nodded, then shook her head.

Shen Chengfeng dragged her hand as he prepared to leave the river.

When Xiao Jing came out, she was so cold that she trembled. She shook her head and said, "Can we soak for a while longer?"

"Do you think we"re here to soak in a hot spring?"

Shen Chengfeng asked.

The corner of Xiao Jing"s mouth twitched, and she could only follow her own captain out of the river.

The waters of the Black Sand River gradually turned cold, and ice once again began to form on the surface of the river.

Returning to the car, Xiao Jing couldn"t help but s.h.i.+ver all over.

Shen Chengfeng prepared to drive away.

Xiao Jing drank two mouthfuls of water, her voice still trembling a little. She asked, "Captain, where are we going now?"

"Murphy is in full revolt, and we must find a safe place to wait for the rescue forces sent by the Flower Country."

The car jolted back from the road.

Xiao Jing frowned and asked, "Where is the mission team?"

Shen Chengfeng leaned on the steering wheel with one hand and his eyes flickered as he looked at her.

Xiao Jing saw the answer in his eyes, and for a moment, the entire carriage became silent.

"There will be a backup."

Shen Chengfeng said in a hushed tone, "We will arrange for a plane to come and welcome back to Flower Country. We need to find the emba.s.sy now and wait patiently."

"Will there be a follow-up mission?"

"I don"t know."

Xiao Jing suddenly became silent, hesitating to speak.

"If you have something to say, just say it."

Shen Chengfeng stepped on the gas pedal and the car rushed onto the main road from the muddy road. Along the way, the chaos caused by the flames of war could be seen everywhere.

Xiao Jing stuttered, "Since you haven"t completed your task, would you be held responsible for it?"

"I will continue the mission after I send you to a safe place."

Xiao Jing"s heart skipped a beat and she hurriedly said, "Captain, do you want to carry out the mission alone?"

"This is a secret mission, so you can"t involve too many people. You just need to quietly wait for the rescue team sent by Flower Country and then return with them."

"Captain, I know the rules, I shouldn"t have asked, I can"t ask, and I won"t ask, I know the seriousness of the situation, but I can help. Although my ability is still a bit lacking, at least I can help you get rid of some minions."

Shen Chengfeng cast a sidelong glance at the determined figure. Under the night sky, the corner of his mouth was slightly raised before it was quickly covered up. The same cold voice sounded without any room for negotiation, "You will only be a burden to me."

"Captain, I"ll wait for you to leave."

"This is a military order."

"The general will not accept any military orders."

"So you"re going to disobey orders?"

Shen Chengfeng stopped the car and stared at her.

Xiao Jing felt weak in her heart from being stared at. She was afraid that her captain would not be able to resist and throw his punching fist that was like a sandbag towards her.

Shen Chengfeng emphasized, "Military orders are not child"s play."

"I"m just worried about you. Right now, the situation is chaotic and confusing. No one can ensure that the mission is foolproof. I just want to help you finish it safely."

Shen Chengfeng looked at her solemnly, "You should trust your superior."

The car was on its way again.

The closer they got to the main city, the more intense the explosions became.

Flower Country"s temporary cas.h.i.+er camp is at the western emba.s.sy in the city.

When Xiao Jing saw the temporary medical post set up outside the emba.s.sy, she should have wanted to check everyone who entered to make sure that they weren"t infected by any disease.

"I"m sorry, but you can"t come in here."

A man called out a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man said angrily, "Why can"t I enter the emba.s.sy?

"I am also a Flowery Nation, why can"t I go and seek refuge?"

"I"m sorry, but your body temperature is too high. For the sake of safety, we must ensure that everyone is normal."

"Why am I abnormal?"

"I just have a slight cold these two days, can"t I go back home?"

The man refused. "I"m sorry, but you can"t show a hospital health certificate."

"Now that the hospital has been bombed, where can I get such proof? I don"t care, I want to go in."

The middle-aged man forced his way through.

The next moment, the group of people directly pushed the middle-aged man out of the emba.s.sy without saying a word.

Xiao Jing looked at the captain on the driver"s seat and bitterly smiled. "I can"t get in even with my current state."

Shen Chengfeng opened the car door, "There will be a way to get in."

Xiao Jing stood in front of him and said seriously, "Captain, I know what you want to say. I"m not sure if I"m healthy right now. If I rush in and spread the disease to everyone, I will feel guilty."

"You"re healthy."

Shen Chengfeng looked at the rash on her neck and saw that it had completely disappeared. Even her forehead was no longer as hot as before.

Xiao Jing lowered her eyes. "I don"t want the captain to violate my principles just because of me."

"So?"

"Looking for an excuse to go on a mission with me?"

Xiao Jing tugged at the corner of her clothes. "If you don"t want to take me with you, it doesn"t matter. I"ll wait for your return."

"Sooner or later, the flames of war will reach here. At the latest, all of the Flower Country people in the emba.s.sy will be evacuated by tonight. Who knows when the next batch will arrive? Are you really willing to wait?"

"Yes."

Xiao Jing replied without thinking.

"Why?"

Shen Chengfeng asked.

Xiao Jing raised her eyes, her eyes s.h.i.+ning brightly. "Captain is my belief, I can"t abandon my belief."

Shen Chengfeng stared into those eyes. The light was dim and his shadow in her eyes was blurry. He took a step closer to her and tried to make his shadow clearer.

Xiao Jing was stunned for a moment. Before she could react, the captain"s facial features were just inches away from her.

Shen Chengfeng grabbed her lower jaw with one hand and kissed her cold lips without thinking. He no longer had the savagery he had before, instead, he gently opened her lips and tongue, bit by bit attacking the city and slowly taking over all her senses.

Caught off guard, Xiao Jing"s eyes suddenly widened. She originally thought that it was an illusion caused by her magic, but unknowingly, her feet were deeply rooted in place.

Shen Chengfeng forcefully grabbed onto her head, causing her to be unable to avoid being bound within his control.

"Bang!"

The fire exploded from the building behind him, instantly illuminating the entire night sky.

Xiao Jing came back to her senses and stared with her eyes wide open in disbelief.

Shen Chengfeng released his grip on her and his eyes flickered as he looked at the building that had exploded not far away.

Xiao Jing was trembling with fear as she covered her mouth. Her lips still retained some of his warmth. What should she do?

Why did the captain do this to her just now?

Could it be that they were using force to suppress him? Could it be that they were using force to suppress him so that he wouldn"t speak any more nonsense?

He could not tell that he was complimenting him.

Shen Chengfeng noticed a young soldier who was having a seizure. He frowned and did not even know why he would suddenly kiss her. It was as if there was a voice in his heart that was paralyzing his nerves.

The battle suddenly came to a standstill, making the surroundings awkward.

"Cough, cough."

Xiao Jing covered her mouth and coughed lightly.

"In the future, you will speak nonsense. This is the punishment."

Shen Chengfeng said seriously.

"Get in."

Shen Chengfeng opened the car door.

Xiao Jing mechanically moved her feet. Did she say something wrong?

If I"m wrong, you"re going to slap my lips with your mouth, but what if I do something wrong in the future?

She s.h.i.+vered. Was she going to tear off her own clothes?

Too savage.

Shen Chengfeng rolled down the window and said, "What are you waiting for?"

Xiao Jing quickly got into the car and stared blankly at the front of the car.

Suddenly, a breath approached her white and tender face. Xiao Jing"s heart hung high in her chest as she silently cursed: What should I do?

Did he feel that he was moving too slowly, that he was going to use his big hand to ravage his little face?

Do I need resistance?

Should I resist?

But he is the Leader. If I resist, will I make him angry?

What if he gets angry and throws his own mouth back at me?

Xiao Jing mustered up the courage to grab his hand and seriously said, "Captain, I"m ready. Please punish me."

Shen Chengfeng took the seat belt and snapped it shut for her.

Xiao Jing didn"t know whether to laugh or cry as she twisted her neck. Seeing her sire focused on driving the car, her cheeks flushed red, and at last, she helplessly knocked her head on the car window.

"It"s going to be very dangerous next. According to the rules, I would have asked you to write a will, but I think it"s better not to."

Shen Chengfeng opened his mouth and broke the silence in the car.

Xiao Jing straightened her body and solemnly nodded. "I will pay attention to my safety."

"Because of the importance of this mission, even if we successfully complete it, both you and I will face punishment of being confined for three days. Do you understand? You don"t even have any credit."

"Yes, captain"

"Venomous Serpent Mercenaries are one of the three largest mercenary groups in the world. Last time when we rescued Professor Zhao Yi, we destroyed their base. This time, I believe they came for us."

"That snake again?"

Xiao Jing couldn"t help raising her vigilance.

"They were in charge of North Island last time, so the higher-ups have given the highest orders. No matter what happens, this snake will be in trouble."

"Yes, I know."

Xiao Jing flipped through the small storage cabinet in the car and asked in surprise, "Captain, don"t you have a weapon?"

Shen Chengfeng turned his body to the side and his eyes were fixated on the little soldier. It was as if he was implying to her that this thing with brains was very important.

Xiao Jing forced a smile and said, "Then why don"t we just go and s.n.a.t.c.h the white blade with our bare hands?"

"There are weapons, it all depends on how you get them."

The corner of Xiao Jing"s mouth twitched. As expected of the fresh and refined team captain, s.n.a.t.c.hing it just as he wished. Furthermore, her words were so euphemistic and so natural.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM!

A rumbling sound came from the peaceful street, and the ground seemed to shake violently.

Shen Chengfeng drove the car into the alley and the two of them jumped out of the car in time to climb over the high wall and find the cover.

The tank"s roar shocked the entire city. The cannon turned and fired a round without hesitation at the landmark buildings that symbolized the city.

BOOM! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM!

The twenty-storey building began to break down from the middle, and collapsed, raising a cloud of dust.

Xiao Jing uneasily swallowed her saliva. She controlled her breathing and cautiously paid attention to the departing tank troops.

The situation of a full-scale insurrection was that the entire city was in a state of disarray, with numerous casualties.

Shen Chengfeng gestured to her.

Xiao Jing tacitly nodded her head. The two figures carefully walked through the alley and quickly arrived at the neighboring street.

There were still some embers on the street, and the sounds of a ruckus could be heard from a shop.

A man holding a bread bag walked out angrily. He spat out a mouthful of phlegm with a displeased expression and coldly said, "What is this? It tastes awful."

"Well, the boss said we have to be back before eight."

Another man loaded the car with a carton of water.

Xiao Jing followed the wall and slowly climbed up to the second floor of the building. She looked down at the two men who were negotiating with her.

Suddenly, Xiao Jing"s expression turned cold. She stared at one of the men without blinking. There was a tattoo that could be seen on the man"s back. It was not difficult to see that it was a snake head.

"I"ll go over there and see if there"s anything else. Eating bread every day is really annoying."

the man complained.

The other ignored him and got into the car, waiting for him to come back.

Xiao Jing jumped down from the second floor. Borrowing the darkness of the night, she sneaked into the bottom of the car.

The car door swung open.

The man in the driver"s seat snorted coldly, "Every time I come out with you, I have to waste my time."

"I found something good."

The man in the pa.s.senger seat took out two ham, "I see meat now like a dog sees bone, I"ll run over with my tail wagging."

"Look at your talent. The boss said that after this mission ends, we"ll be able to live carefreely for the rest of our lives. Hahahaha."

Laughter rang out from within the car.

The car sped all the way until it finally stopped in front of a deserted inn near the emba.s.sy in the West Flower Country.

"Why did you two go so long?"

Another man"s voice came from the door.

"We were delayed by the enemy army."

"Come in and get ready. The boss said to start tonight."

"So fast?"

The two of them looked at each other, and without further ado, they walked into the inn.

Shen Chengfeng cautiously sneaked out of his car. Across from the inn was the emba.s.sy.

Xiao Jing noticed that there was a machine operating above her head. She quickly gave up and laid down on the floor of the car to watch the drone fly away.

Shen Chengfeng frowned, the drone flew towards the emba.s.sy.

"Everybody get in the car. The last supper is starting."

Armored armoured vehicles drove out of the inn.

The ruts were deeply embedded in the snow, and all the cars were a blur in the night.

In front of the emba.s.sy of Flower Country, the bus was filled with ordinary people preparing to move.

The soldiers in charge of the sentry didn"t notice anything amiss. Everyone was ready to start the car.

"Dong, dong dong."

Something rolled into the bottom of the car.

A person hurriedly got out of the car. Just as he was about to check what it was, he heard a "bang" sound as the car flew up into the air and flipped several times in the air before finally smas.h.i.+ng into the ground.

"Ah, ah, ah."

Everyone on the bus screamed in panic.

Before the driver could open the door, a bullet went through his head and he fell onto the steering wheel. Blood dripped down the outline of the steering wheel.

"Bang!"

The tear gas bomb was broken and smoke filled the air. The soldiers who were ready to retaliate jumped out of their vehicles, and the bullets rolled towards them like a storm.
