Wife is Fierce, Don’t Mess With Her! - Chapter 621

Chapter 621: A Piece of Flesh Removed

Under Helian Niancheng’s reassurance, Gu Qingjiu gradually calmed down.

After calming down, this time, she didn’t continue lying in his embrace for more comfort like in the past.

She noticed the obvious differences between Helian Niancheng’s attire and the ones in China.

Raising her head, Gu Qingjiu asked, sounding baffled, “Chief Instructor, you…”

“I hadn’t told you about my identity because I never found the suitable opportunity to do so. Also, I didn’t feel that it would affect anything.”

Helian Niancheng had said all these in a low voice, his fingers grazing Gu Qingjiu’s cheeks.

His forehead was leaning against Gu Qingjiu’s.

He continued softly, “Well, I’ll tell you my identity now.”

“I am from Penalan Empire’s Helian family. Right now, the Chief Diplomat in Penalan is my father. And I’m Penalan’s land troops’ Major-General. But because of an accidental matter, I was temporarily… sent to China.”

Gu Qingjiu more or less knew his identity by now.

But hearing him say it personally, there was still an indescribable sense of shock.

The Helian family was eminent, and likely everyone in the world had heard of them.

And the man before her was from the Helian family. Furthermore, he was even a Major-General.

Such a person was as different from her as heaven and earth.

Now that she had learned of the truth, Gu Qingjiu suddenly had no idea what to say.

She lowered her head, her right palm tightly clenched in a death-like grip.

Only until Helian Niancheng’s warm palm enveloped that hand did she feel her heart skip heavily for a beat.

“Qingjiu, you know very well that there isn’t any distance between our identities. I’m your boyfriend, that’s it.”

“Of course, I know.”

Because of that piece of her past she recalled earlier, she had an indescribably weird sensation in her heart.

Anxious to hide her franticness, she asked, “How did you know I’m here?”

“I had long sensed it when you entered this department. It’s just that it’s not convenient for me to interfere in certain matters in China. Since I’ve resumed my identity in Penalan, I have the right to learn of something like this. I have ever liaised with such departments in China in the past.”

Though brief, Helian Niancheng’s words made Gu Qingjiu detect something that ran contrary to what she knew.

Back when she joined the department, Lu Ziyang had said that the department’s information had to be kept confidential.

But from the looks of it, even foreigners could know of the existence of this department.

Although Helian Niancheng’s identity was extraordinary, it went to show that the so-called confidential wasn’t all that confidential after all.

Seeing Helian Niancheng shortly after waking up, Gu Qingjiu’s mood slightly improved from moments earlier.

As for her injury, she had already expected this, so she wouldn’t complain if she got injured during missions.

But when she woke up and overheard Elder Gong and Lu Ziyang’s conversation…

Revealing that this mission was some kind of test for her…

It had to be said that Gu Qingjiu was feeling rather disgruntled.

But she could only bury such feelings in the depths of her heart.

When Helian Niancheng saw Gu Qingjiu’s arm hung up, a trace of distant glint flickered across his deep eyes. He touched that arm and asked, “Does it hurt?”

“What do you think…”

Gu Qingjiu drew in a cold gasp even as she recalled that incident now.

She only remembered that something had flown out as that person attacked her arm. Come to think of it, surely that wasn’t a piece of flesh from her own arm?
