Huo Jun’s vacation was not in vain.
Later, he told Su Yi that some Zergs were ready to move again on the border. According to the information sent back, there should be a change of power within the Zerg, and a new queen was born. Perhaps war would break out again in the near future, and Huo Jun prepared to go to the front line.
The two of them sat in a high-end restaurant on the Capital Star. Snowflakes were flying outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, hovercrafts were shuttling quickly in the air, and someone was playing romantic music in the restaurant. It was warm and comfortable.
After Huo Jun finished speaking, he looked at Su Yi with a little trepidation.
Although he had just made this decision, it was not an impulse decision. Although he had only been in the military for a short time, every moment, he realized more clearly than before how small the power of a single person was and how important power was. He was not obsessed with it, but he needed it.
He urgently needed to become stronger and more powerful, so that he would not be easily influenced by others, so that he could stand by Su Yi, and even one day become her backing and provide her with sufficient protection.
And military merit can bring these.
However, he was worried that Su Yi would be unhappy because he didn’t know when he would be able to come back this time, and it might even be difficult to contact her during this time.
He was also reluctant to leave her.
However, he was more aware that if he continued to stay in the military and lived a stable life, he might have to live under the control of the emperor all his life, which was something he could never compromise on.
Su Yi gently stirred a bowl of thick soup, just raised her eyes, and asked, “Can you promise to protect yourself?”
“I will try my best not to get hurt and will definitely come back to see you.” Huo Jun said.
Su Yi nodded gently, “Do as you say. I’ll wait for you.”
She easily said it, which made Huo Jun feel uneasy. He couldn’t help asking, “Won’t you be unhappy?”
He had a comrade-in-arms who also applied to go to the front line. After the approval came down, he didn’t see him too excited. Instead, he said with a sad face that he didn’t know how to explain it when he got home and hoped that his girlfriend wouldn’t break up with him.
Huo Jun was influenced by him, so on the way to Su Yi, his heart was in turmoil.
He knew that Su Yi rarely had a temper and would not make a fuss just because he was going to the front line, but the mere thought that she would be unhappy was enough to make him uneasy.
Su Yi drank a small spoonful of soup and asked him, “Why am I unhappy?”
Huo Jun was a little at a loss for words, “Because I have to leave again?”
“Will you miss me after you leave?” Su Yi looked into his eyes and asked.
“Yes.” Huo Jun said subconsciously.
Then he reacted, looked around, and waited for a waiter to pass by the table of two people. There was no one else next to him, so he stared at the flowers on the table and continued, “I miss you every day, every moment.”
Every time he said love words, he didn’t dare to look at Su Yi’s problem, and he didn’t know when it would get better.
Su Yi chuckled and said, “Seeing how much you’re thinking about it, I’m a magnanimous person and won’t pursue the fact that you always run away.”
Huo Jun turned his gaze back to look at her, wanting to say something but not knowing where to start. He was very depressed that he was so tongue-tied when he was in front of her.
When they were not dating, he could still smile and joke freely, but now that it was a critical moment, he felt embarrassed even to look into her eyes and speak.
Huo Jun had never known how to write the word ‘shy’ before, but in recent days, he could write these two words backward smoothly.
After dinner, the two of them left the restaurant and strolled on the street.
Although it was a bit cold with snow, the fine snowflakes under the colorful lights of the city at night also had a unique beauty.
Probably not just the two of them felt this way. Although it was colder than usual, there were more people on the street than usual, and most of them were young couples.
In addition to Su Yi’s own coat, she also wore Huo Jun’s coat. For Huo Jun, it was a medium-length style, but it reached her calves when she wore it. The thick and warm clothes wrapped around her made her look even younger.
Huo Jun bought a large black umbrella from the store and held it steadily above their heads to keep the snowflakes out.
Su Yi blew a breath into the air. Under the black umbrella, the white mist was like fluffy cotton candy. It gathered into a ball at first, but she stirred it with her fingers twice and it quickly dispersed.
Huo Jun watched her childish behavior intently.
Many of Su Yi’s behaviors made people look very confused. She was young, but she had unknown and huge abilities; with such abilities, she just wanted to live a low-key life; sometimes she would do some childish behaviors, but sometimes she could clearly and calmly enlighten and persuade him.
Huo Jun knew that there must be a huge mystery about her. He was not obsessed with knowing the answer, but he was fascinated by this mystery.
He was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn’t realize he had been staring at her for a long time until Su Yi waved her hand in front of him.
“Come back to your senses. What are you daydreaming about on the street?”
Su Yi’s fair and slender fingers were waving leisurely in front of his eyes.
Huo Jun didn’t say anything, just held that hand, put it to his lips, and kissed it.
The two-day vacation, excluding the journey back and forth, actually just passed by in a flash, and then he left again.
