Chapter 715: This embrace, it's very late

"It's me." Mo Yunshen caught his breath, then stood up, placed the steel rifle on the ground, and reached out his arms.

An Yinan smiled, walked forward, and hugged the boy; the once-frail boy who had struggled to survive in the Cowshed, his heart even becoming numb.

She never expected that one day, he would grow into a man and have determined his own path so early.

Mo Yunshen hugged An Yinan, then pulled away.

This embrace was very late.

In the past, he wasn't qualified enough and couldn't protect An Jie; in the future, he would work hard to protect An Jie, protect Beibei, protect his parents, and protect Huaxia.

His gun would always be aimed at outsiders; those who offend our land, no matter how far away, must be punished.

This was his path.

An Yinan smiled, "You've grown up and become sturdy. If you hadn't spoken, I wouldn't have recognized you."

Mo Yunshen smiled shyly, "I recognized An Jie at a glance. No matter how much you've smeared on your face, your eyes are always so bright."

"Anyone who sees your eyes will be filled with hope."

It only took one glance for him to recognize An Jie.

Without anyone's reminder, without any specific features, just a single look was enough to be his salvation.

"Haha, good lad."

"Now is not the time to reminisce. You have found your path, and I also have a path I must walk."

"I'm off." An Yinan patted his sturdy shoulder, then raised her hand and waved.

Over there, Zhang Qian blinked, as if he had guessed who this person was; he hadn't expected such a big change.

He used to be a little sprout, but now he had grown into a big young man.

"That's Mo Yunshen? Really?" Zhang Qian looked incredulous.

An Yinan's footsteps stopped, "Zhang Qian, we are getting old."

In the outside society, they were in their prime.

But in the Military, their bodies had already reached their peak, and their time in combat units would become less and less.

Zhang Qian paused, then smiled.

"I'm still young, I can still fight for another hundred years, who's old!" Zhang Qian shouted shamelessly.

An Yinan scoffed, "Tell me about your mission."

She hadn't forgotten that they were on a mission now.

Even if they were good friends, even if they were partners, she wouldn't show the slightest mercy when she made her move!

"Wipe out the Blue Party command post, kidnap or kill the Blue Party commander." Zhang Qian shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly.

He and Chen Xun had guessed earlier that their missions should overlap.

After all, while individual strength was important, team combat capability was even more important. The place they were going to was a place that would eat you alive; it required their tacit understanding and for them to look out for one another. Only then could they increase their chances of survival.

"It seems it's as I guessed." An Yinan smiled.

"Then you still hit me!" Zhang Qian suddenly remembered; this person just wanted to spar on purpose, right?

An Yinan looked at him sideways, "To see if you've regressed and if you're still qualified to be my partner."

After she finished speaking, she walked forward quickly for a few steps.

The group of people from the place where they had fought earlier had already been taken away by the people from the Yama Hall; apart from the mess on the ground, there was nothing left.

An Yinan grabbed a tree trunk, scrambled up a few times, and reached the branches. She stepped on a branch and jumped upward; the clothes she had hidden were still there.

"What is that?" Zhang Qian asked from below.

They had searched in that direction earlier, but Nan Nan's trail had been cut off. Chen Xun had just gone in another direction, and the two had agreed to meet here.

He hadn't returned yet, but they hadn't heard any gunfire either, so there shouldn't have been any accidents.

"I stripped a male soldier's clothes," An Yinan said.

She took the hidden clothes and the supplies she had wrapped inside them, then jumped down.

"Keep watch for me, I'm going to change my clothes."

Her clothes were the combat uniform of the unit she belonged to, which was a bit conspicuous in this place; changing clothes was a must.

"Don't worry." Zhang Qian turned his back, squatted on the ground, and at some point, plucked a blade of grass and put it in his mouth, moving it back and forth while listening to the movement around them.

Just at this moment...

A series of footsteps approached. He quickly found a piece of cover and looked over.

When he saw Chen Xun, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. In the past few days, supplies had been scarce, and the two of them hadn't eaten for a day and a night.

Someone of his size was almost suffering from hypoglycemia.

"Didn't find her?" Chen Xun saw Zhang Qian here, but only him, and immediately asked with concern.

Zhang Qian shrugged his shoulders and pointed to the position behind him, "Changing clothes over there, told me to keep watch here."

"Chen Xun, don't say I don't treat you like a brother, do you know what I just saw?"

Chen Xun ignored him and just sat to one side, listening slowly.

"I just saw An Yinan hugging another man, and I'm not one to talk nonsense!"

Having said this, he even nudged the man beside him with his elbow.

"And she was the one who initiated the hug!"

Chen Xun looked at Zhang Qian helplessly, "Mo Yunshen?"

Zhang Qian widened his eyes, looking as if he had seen a ghost, and even took a few steps back. Was this person clairvoyant?

"How did you know?" he asked foolishly.

"Zhang Qian, I really doubt your intelligence." Just at this moment, An Yinan's voice came from behind.

Chen Xun immediately turned his head, and when he saw that his wife was uninjured, his heart, which had been worried the whole time, finally settled down.

"Wait, you two should consider me, a single dog, first. Can someone explain this to me?" Zhang Qian asked.

An Yinan smiled, walked over to the two of them, and took out the supplies; there were four and a half packs of biscuits in total, and she gave each of them one and a half packs, keeping one and a half for herself, which counted as an even split.

"I'm not hungry." Chen Xun kept half a pack for himself, and he placed the whole pack of biscuits directly back into An Yinan's hand.

Zhang Qian's lips were a bit pale; he kept one pack for himself and gave the half pack to her.

"I won't stand on ceremony with you; if I don't eat something now, I really won't be able to hold on." You have to know, when that grandson Fang Yi threw them into the deep mountains, he had just finished a day of training and hadn't even eaten a meal yet.

"It's for you, keep it yourselves. If it's not enough later, we'll just rob the teams. Before, it was hard for me to act alone, but now that I have you two, I'm not afraid of anything." An Yinan smiled like a fox.

"Alright!" Chen Xun took it, and while he was at it, he also gave Zhang Qian's half pack back to Zhang Qian.

"Tell me, how did you know it was Mo Yunshen?" Zhang Qian was very persistent about the answer and still hadn't let it go.
