Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After dinner, the entire camp gradually quietened down. Even the cries of birds were gone.

Tang Jinghong opened the tent flap and walked in. “Qingzhi, the water is ready. Go and take a shower.”

Chu Qingzhi was surprised. “There’s water?”

Tang Jinghong explained, “There’s a river ten meters away from the camp. Water is fetched from there.”

Since they didn’t lack water, she wouldn’t feel guilty if she took a shower… Chu Qingzhi stood up to get a change of clothes. “Okay, I’ll go right away.”

Tang Jinghong led Chu Qingzhi to the tent at the side. “Everything is ready. Take your time. 1’11 guard outside.”

“Okay.” Chu Qingzhi smiled and walked in.

Not long after, Chu Qingzhi came out. After taking a shower, there was a faint fragrance of soap on her body. When she walked to Tang Jinghong, he smelled it immediately. Smelling the fragrance, his heart suddenly started pounding.

Chu Qingzhi said, “I’m done showering.”

Tang Jinghong’s words were filled with concern. “Go and rest in the tent. We have to wake up early tomorrow. Sleep more.”

Chu Qingzhi shook her head. “1’11 wash my clothes before going to sleep. Go and take a shower. Change your clothes. I’ll wash them together.”

He had always washed his own clothes. Now that he heard Chu Qingzhi’s words, excitement, joy, and love intertwined in his heart.

This was probably the feeling of being taken care of by someone you loved.

Tang Jinghong smiled. “Okay.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Then go quickly. Put the clothes on the screen. I’ll come and get them later.”

“Okay.”

After getting Tang Jinghong’s clothes, Chu Qingzhi went to the river.

There were some soldiers taking a shower by the river. Chu Qingzhi avoided them and went to the other side of the river to wash the clothes.

To be honest, this was also her first time washing clothes for a man.

It felt a little strange.

Just as she was letting her imagination run wild, she suddenly sensed something strange. She quietly released her divine sense to check her surroundings.

Soon, she sensed a masked man in black high up on a big tree.

The man in black was also looking at her. He held a dagger in his hand and seemed to be planning to attack her.

Chu Qingzhi smirked. Then, she continued to wash her clothes as if nothing had happened.

The man in black knew martial arts. He flew down the tree and thought that he was not discovered. Then, he bent down and stealthily sneaked up to Chu Qingzhi.

Chu Qingzhi calmly washed her clothes as the man in black got closer and closer…

The man in black reached behind Chu Qingzhi and slowly raised the dagger in his hand. Just as he was about to stab her, Chu Qingzhi turned around…

Her hair was disheveled, her face was pale, and her eyes were empty. Blood and tears flowed down her face, making her look like a malicious ghost.

On the riverbank where it was deadly quiet and deserted, Chu Qingzhi was wearing a white dress. Coupled with the female ghost’s face, the scene was really scary.

“All—” A terrified scream sounded, cutting through the night sky and startling birds.

Such a loud scream naturally reached the camp. A few seconds later, a figure swished over. “Qingzhi…”

Chu Qingzhi had already put back her original appearance. She pointed at the frightened man in black. “Jinghong, I’m fine but he’s not.”

Tang Jinghong hugged Chu Qingzhi in his arms. He was also scared to death. When he heard the scream, he jumped out of the shower and rushed over. “It’s good that you’re fine.”

Chu Qingzhi could hear the worry and fear in Tang Jinghong’s tone. She had never been loved so wholeheartedly before. She could not help but feel sweet.

If she had known that Jinghong would be so worried, she would not have scared that man in black and would have just knocked him out.

“Jinghong, you really don’t have to worry about me. No one in this world can do anything to me.”

Tang Jinghong hugged Chu Qingzhi tightly. “I believe that, but 1 still can’t be completely at ease.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled and patted Tang Jinghong’s back. “Then I won’t let you worry about me again.”

Tang Jinghong let go of Chu Qingzhi and looked at her. He said seriously, “You can do anything you like. I’ll support you as long as you’re happy.”

Chu Qingzhi tilted her head slightly. “What if I want to kill someone?”

Tang Jinghong said without hesitation, “I’ll give you a knife. If one isn’t enough, give me two until it’s enough.”

Chu Qingzhi looked at Tang Jinghong in a daze. Suddenly, her eyes curved and she stood on her tiptoes to kiss Tang Jinghong’s lips. “1’11 continue washing clothes.”

She was a little embarrassed and quickly avoided his gaze.

Tang Jinghong was stunned on the spot. He slowly reached out and touched his lips.

Did Qingzhi kiss his lips just now?

It felt like a dream.

At this moment, a soldier rushed over and called out, “General.”

“Take this person back to the military camp. 1’11 interrogate him personally.”

“Yes, General.”

Chu Qingzhi continued washing her clothes and then returned to the military camp with Tang Jinghong.

The man in black was tied to a tree trunk. He had woken up from the faint.

Tang Jinghong and Chu Qingzhi walked over side by side.

Chu Qingzhi walked in front of the man in black and secretly used the Truth Telling Spell. Then, she retreated to Tang Jinghong’s side and winked at him. “Jinghong, ask.”

Tang Jinghong stood tall with one hand behind his back. He naturally exuded a dignified and oppressive aura. “Who sent you?”

Of course, the man in black wouldn’t tell the truth, but the lie he said unknowingly became the truth. “Yin Yuping.”

The man in black looked stunned. Why did he tell the truth when he clearly said the opposite?

The Lord of the Northern Borderline had 100,000 troops and ten trusted generals under him. One of them was Yin Yuping.

Tang Jinghong’s expression darkened. “Why did he send you here?”

The man in black bit his tongue. He did not intend to answer the question, but he could not control himself at all. “To spy on you and report your movements to him at any time.”

“Spying on me?” Tang Jinghong’s sharp eyes glanced coldly at the man in black. “Why does he want you to spy on me?”

The man in black was in extreme pain. “So that he can find an opportunity to kill you.”

Tang Jinghong’s expression did not change. There were too many people who wanted to kill him. He was not surprised at all when he heard this answer. “Who else did he send?”

The man in black clenched his fists tightly. “1 don’t know.”

Tang Jinghong’s voice was a little oppressive. “How do you contact your superior?”

The man in black’s fingertips had already pierced into his palm. “I can’t contact my superiors. They took the initiative to contact me.”

Tang Jinghong suddenly said to Chu Qingzhi, “Qingzhi, go back to your tent.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded and returned to the tent.

Tang Jinghong watched Chu Qingzhi leave before saying to the deputy general beside him, “Take off his clothes and search his body..”
