He reached out and caressed Zhong Nuannuan's soft hair. He spoke with a gentle tone that other people would never see, "I'm sorry, Nuannuan. There was a drill by the Department of Special Forces this week, so I couldn't come to visit you. However, the drill ended a few days ago. After finishing the report yesterday and attending the meeting this afternoon, my schedule will clear up.
But you're going back to school tomorrow, and you'll be staying in the dorm too. If you're free at night, I'll come to see you, okay?"
"It's fine. The military base is so far away from my school. It's a three-hour return trip."
"It's fine. I have an apartment in the city. It's not far away from your school. I can stay in the apartment at night and go back to the military base the next day."
"Really?" Zhong Nuannuan's eyes lit up.
Even though she felt bad for making Chi Yang run around like this, she still really wanted to see him.
"Okay."
