Tangling with the Western Commander

This is a story of a captain of a secluded place and a gorgeous female celebrity—both who would hardly cross paths but a collision in Tibet sets an opening to their encounter. Upon their first encounter, Wenxian already has her eyes set on Captain Lu—her mouth drooling with desire. Wenxian, “Hmm? How can I win over your heart? In a plain sack or using sweet talk?” With a cigarette in his mouth, Lu Xiao scoffs. “You are an impressive and popular celebrity, I am only a captain at this secluded place. I am very poor, what is it in me that you like about?” Wenxian, “I like how you always snub back at me.” Lu Xiao choked and walked away heartlessly. “You are shameless, don’t even dream about it!” The next day, he said, “It's all because you were carried away by a whim?” Wenxian, “No, hatching a scheme.”

Chapter 29: Silence is Golden

Éditeur: Atlas Studios

The night was pitch-black as ink.

The light was dim, and he stood with his back to it, his features hidden in the darkness, with only his eyes shining bright like gems.

Wen Xian held his cigarette and lighter in her hand.

Lu Xiao looked at the items in her hand.

Both of them: "..."

A subtle, indescribable tension suddenly filled the air between them.

Silence was more profound than sound.

When he spoke again, Lu Xiao took a step forward and took the cigarette and lighter from her.

Then, looking towards the gate swallowed by the night, he spoke indifferently, "These cheap cigarettes are too harsh, not suitable for you."

Wen Xian: "..."

She stared at his cold, resolute profile, and although she guessed something, she no longer asked.

Ambiguity reverberated between them.

Her lips curved slightly into a faint smile, "Captain Lu, I'm leaving tomorrow."

Her sudden statement.

It seemed as if the air around them grew stagnant.
