Chapter 1596 Sweets

Even without makeup, Nan Hua\'s appearance was still very good. So good that Long Qian Xing wanted to hide her away. Her long hair swayed slightly in accordance to her movements while her eyes were looking in his direction, clear as mirror.

In the midst of the night, she no longer looked as energetic as usual. But her stance remained firm, hiding her real condition with the proper and correct etiquette.

"Hua\'er," Long Qian Xing called out. "You don\'t have to be so rigid in front of me."

Nan Hua\'s eyes flickered slightly as she relaxed her posture. This kind of posture that followed etiquette all the time was indeed very tiring. But for someone who had gotten used to it for many years, it was not a problem for Nan Hua.

Still, in front of Long Qian Xing, it would be better to show her truest self without any pretending or anything like that. 

"It\'s late, Brother Long," Nan Hua said slowly. "Why did you come here?"

"With Great General Nan around, how can I openly come to you and have a talk?" Long Qian Xing replied, his tone sounded helpless.

During the day, Old Master Nan kept on pestering Nan Hua in the name of getting to know the new general. Those who knew the truth would feel that he was simply so shameless and those who didn\'t know only nodded and didn\'t think much.

But because there were too many people around, Long Qian Xing also didn\'t dare to step forward and greeted Nan Hua openly.

He didn\'t want to create more rumors.

When he carried Nan Hua back then, there were already many rumors about him liking a guy or even trying to get close to Princess Jun from Dark Moon Organization. While the second one was true, it was only because Jun Hua is Nan Hua.

But those who didn\'t know would think that he liked two girls at the same time.

*sigh*

Knowing the truth yet helpless to correct it just made him sigh.

There was nothing he could do to correct it anyway.

"Brother Long surely would have a way." Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing, her eyes gleamed in mischievous light.

Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows. "Since I can\'t come during the day, I choose to come during the night. Does Hua\'er mind?"

"No, I don\'t mind at all." Nan Hua shook her head lightly. 

They were fiancé and fiancée with each other. What was wrong with them meeting each other occasionally?

There was a smile in Long Qian Xing\'s eyes as he looked at Nan Hua. "I brought snacks for you."

Nan Hua\'s eyes followed Long Qian Xing\'s hand as he took out a handkerchief and opened it. Inside the handkerchief was a stack of cookies with sugar on top of it. The shape looked really good.

"There are sugar here?" Nan Hua was a bit surprised.

When they were on the frontline, their foods were being arranged by the people in charge of the kitchen matters. There were usually only the most important supplies would be kept and something like flour and sugar being able to be hand out should be rare.

"Long Ai Ning took some and prepared this cookie. There are several recipes and I told her to try one at a time. However, I don\'t like cookies and would like to request Hua\'er to help me eat it." Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua. "Would you do me this favor, Hua\'er?"

Favor?

Nan Hua blinked her eyes, feeling that Long Qian Xing was somewhat sultry today. He was usually quite scheming, but this was the first time she found out that he could also act this way. It was clear that he wanted to give her the sweets, yet he made it as if she was doing him a favor.

The corner of her lips curled up slightly.

She liked sweets.

It was true.

Because it tasted really sweet, melting inside her mouth.

"Okay, Brother Long," Nan Hua chose to play along and picked one of the cookie from the stack of cookies in front of her. 

*crunch*

Nan Hua bite the cookie and surprised at how easily it cracked. It was the type of dry cookies that could last long. As she chewed, the sugar melted, giving her sweet and delicious taste.

It tasted really good.

"It\'s good, Brother Long," Nan Hua replied. She smiled brightly, "It\'s very sweet."

Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua eating the cookie and smiling at him brightly, suddenly feeling really thirsty. While Nan Hua might not intend it, she looked really seductive right now.

The way she ate and replied to him just made his heart pound. 

He wanted to come forward and hug her deeply…

But Long Qian Xing suppressed this feeling deep inside his heart. It was not the time yet. And there was no way he could do it when there were many people who were watching them from outside.

Should he made noise here, it was estimated that Old Master Nan would come here with a sword.

He didn\'t want to be kicked out by his future grandfather in law.

Long Qian Xing swallowed and smiled in turn. "It\'s good that you like it. The rest of the cookies will be given to you, Hua\'er."

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing, clearly heard his low and somewhat hoarse voice. She was not stupid and knew many things due to the missions she had done before. Seduction was part of the lessons she had to learn in order to be close to her target.

It was just that she rarely used it due to her young age and undeveloped body.

Not many people liked young children.

"Okay, Brother Long," Nan Hua replied and kept her smile.
