Speak of the Devil

Zhao Liangze broke into a wide grin and winked at her. Then, he nodded at Huo Shaoheng to respectfully say, "Huo Shao, you've arrived."

He was on a mission, so he didn't give Huo Shaoheng a military salute.

Huo Shaoheng smiled back at him.

His physique was much more muscular and tanner than before. From the way Huo Shaoheng saw it, Zhao Liangze looked much better and manlier than he had previously.

All men should look like him.

Huo Shaoheng patted him on the shoulder and said, "...You've worked hard."

That one sentence was enough to make Zhao Liangze nearly burst into tears.

He quickly blinked to quell the sudden moisture in his eyes.

"It wasn't that hard, it's… it's my job." Zhao Liangze choked up a little as he took a suitcase from Huo Shaoheng's hand and turned to leave. "Come with me. The car is over there."

Huo Shaoheng hadn't actually wanted Zhao Liangze to pick them up from the airport.
