"We’ll see how you perform from now on." With that, Mu Xingfeng slammed the car door and got out.
Lin Ruonan hadn’t expected Mu Xingfeng to come pick her up, and she was pleasantly surprised.
Mu Xingfeng wasn’t wearing his guard uniform today. Although she had grown accustomed to seeing him in his uniform, she had to admit that every time he wore civilian clothes, he looked absolutely stunning.
Today, Mu Xingfeng wore a black mandarin-collar shirt with gray edges. The top two buttons were left undone, revealing his slender neck and perfect collarbone.
The matching black trousers made his long legs appear even more straight and tall.
Paired with Mu Xingfeng’s cool, moonlit demeanor, he looked incredibly noble and elegant.
Just one look, and Lin Ruonan was mesmerized. This was the man she had loved for nearly twenty years. For him, she had always pushed herself to become stronger, just to stand beside him, shoulder to shoulder.
Last time she went home, her grandfather had told her that he would discuss with Grandpa Mu, and they would get engaged during the Spring Festival. That’s why she begged her father to transfer her to Nan’an.
She didn’t know if they would really get engaged by the Spring Festival, but she knew deep down that this was her last chance.
Even though Lin Ruonan was extremely excited inside, her pride kept her expression calm and composed.
Captain Tao was much more enthusiastic. From afar, he saw the car approaching and then stopping to the side. Understanding dawned as he saw Mu Xingfeng get out. He teased with a smile, "Captain Mu, are you trying to cause a sensation among our female guards?"
Lin Junyang then caught up, flamboyantly adjusting the collar of his floral shirt, and chimed in, "Of course, we want your female guards to witness the charm of our male guards."
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice yelled from one of the dorm rooms above, "Come quick, look down here, two handsome guys!"
Soon, the windows of the female guards’ dormitory were filled with peeking heads.
"Are they relatives? Visiting family?"
"No way, look at their hairstyles, they must be from the male guards’ team."
"I know, I know! That’s Captain Mu and Captain Lin from the male guards. Their photos were on the last commendation notice."
"It is really Captain Mu! Seeing him in person is even better than his photo. Where’s my phone? I need a picture."
"Wow, I didn’t think Captain Mu would look even more handsome in civilian clothes than in his uniform. Total Overbearing President vibes. I think I’m in love."
"Captain Lin’s so flamboyant, that floral shirt is even more colorful than a girl’s. But I must admit, he looks really alluring ."
Mu Xingfeng hadn’t expected this. He had just wanted to avoid listening to Lin Junyang’s chatter and got out of the car over there. Now, having caused a commotion at the female guards’ dormitory, he could only apologize, "Captain Tao, you’re as playful as ever."
After greeting Captain Tao, he turned to Lin Ruonan, extended his hand, and said, "Ruonan, welcome."
His voice was indifferent, his actions perfunctory. Lin Ruonan also extended her hand calmly, "Thank you."
Lin Junyang, still flirting with the female guards upstairs, heard their conversation and took a closer look at the two. The more he saw them interact, the more confused he became.
To avoid any trampling accidents or falls, the group didn’t linger downstairs. They got into the car and headed straight for the city.
