Walking on the stone path, Nan Hua felt that she had always been escorted by Long Qian Xing whenever she wanted to go back in most event. Not only in Long Family Residence but also in other locations.
At that time, she realized that Long Qian Xing's steps were rather slow. It was slower than his usual pace when he was walking. As a soldier, how could he walk as slow as a young lady?
But at this time, it was this pace that he actually used when walking beside his fiancée.
It seemed as if he was trying to slow down his pace and Nan Hua also slowed down her pace to match his. The two of them were walking like snails towards the gate, making the usually close distance into long distance.
If Long Qian Xing's soldiers were to see their commander being so considerate like this, their eyes might have long popped out.
Their demonic commander was actually trying to take care of a young lady.
What an achievement!
Though, they would not dare to truly say it out loud or they would definitely earn another beating and long training. No one would dare to truly challenge Long Qian Xing's patience as those who dared had already earned their punishments.
Nan Hua paid some attention to their pace as the light within her eyes flickered. It didn't take a long time for them to reach the gate. Even if their pace had slowed down considerably, the distance was still fairly short.
"Hua'er, take care."
As they reached the gate, Long Qian Xing really felt that the road was not long enough. He really wanted to ask his grandmother to make more road so that he could take a walk for a longer period of time.
A circular path would be even better!
At this moment, Long Qian Xing had long forgotten that he was the one who asked his grandmother to make a straighter path in the past because he was more about efficiency. After all, he felt that it would be a waste of time to have long road without many practical use.
If his grandmother were to hear his words, she would have long dissed her own grandson again.
"Mhm." Nan Hua raised her head and curtsied. Her standard movements had long been trained to match those of royalties, making her posture pleasant to look at. "Brother Long should take care too."
"I will."
Long Qian Xing smiled. He felt that he could never get bored watching Nan Hua even if it was just her little movements like this. He watched as Nan Hua entered the carriage and left. It was not every day that Nan Hua came to Long Family Residence, so he really felt that such chance was rather rare.
If only there was another chance in the future, he wanted to make sure that there were more things that he could do to earn more time to spend with his fiancée. It was too bad if she came for such a short period of time and then left again.
