The Special Forces squad was a mysterious military team belonging to Xuanjin, unlike the god-like existence of "Red Thorn," this team was solely under the command of the nation’s leaders, even old commanders like An Muyun and Gu Zhongyi did not have the authority to command them. And as the chief instructor of the Special Forces squad, An Zhiyan held tremendous power!
"Zhiyan, are you back?" Kong Shi was very happy to see her second son, who had not come home for nearly a month, pulling An Zhiyan back and forth to take a good look at him.
"Mom," An Zhiyan’s icy eyes warmed slightly, he looked concernedly at his mother in front of him and asked, "How is your health? I’ve been so busy with the troops lately that I haven’t had time to call home."
"It doesn’t matter, your career is most important." Kong Shi was very understanding of her son’s busyness, hurriedly waved her hand to show it was nothing, and turned to pull the girl behind her, introducing her to An Zhiyan with great happiness, "Zhiyan, this is Xiao Qing, she is Mom’s lifesaver. I ran into a robber recently, and it was Xiao Qing who saved me. Moreover, she is a disciple of the Master of the Medicine Sect. Ever since I’ve taken the medicine Xiao Qing prescribed for me, Mom’s health has improved a lot."
After hearing Kong Shi’s words, An Zhiyan felt a moment of anxiety. Having ensured his mother was really unhurt, he nodded politely to An Yiqing and said, "Miss An, thank you for saving my mother."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Kong Shi smacked him on the head, "You little brat, what are you calling Miss An? Xiao Qing is like my own daughter, your grandparents like her very much too. You should call her sister! Or you can call her Xiao Qing, too!"
An Zhiyan was stunned for a moment, his icy black eyes revisiting the girl in front of him, somewhat curious about what magic she held to have captured the hearts of the whole family. But the more he observed her, the more alarmed he grew.
How could this girl’s appearance be so similar to his mother’s... And where did that inexplicable sense of familiarity in his heart come from?
Was all this a coincidence, or was it by design?
"Uh... Xiao Qing, thank you for saving my mom and for treating her illness." No matter what he thought, An Zhiyan’s upbringing made him gratefully thank An Yiqing.
"Second Brother An need not thank me. I was destined to meet your aunt, and I know Big Brother An as well, and Ah Lin is friends with you all. It is only right for me not to ignore your aunt’s illness," the girl naturally saw the doubt in An Zhiyan’s heart and mentioned Gu Yelin to ease his guard.
"Ah Lin?..." An Zhiyan hesitated,
"Oh my! Look at my memory, I left that out!" Kong Shi slapped her forehead beside him and said with a smile, "Xiao Qing is Ye Lin’s girlfriend. You’ve been away at the army base and don’t know, but that rascal Ye Lin has done a lot of earth-shattering things for Xiao Qing! If I hadn’t met Xiao Qing later, I really wouldn’t have known that Lao San had such good taste!"
"Lao San has a girlfriend?! He knows how to be in a relationship?!" An Zhiyan was taken aback, shedding his cold exterior and blurting out in a very adolescent way.
An Yiqing’s lips twitched twice, and she couldn’t help but be speechless at An Zhiyan’s reaction, her head filled with black lines.
"You brat, what are you saying!" Kong Shi glared at him and scolded.
"Uh..." An Zhiyan also realized what he said was rather silly and couldn’t help but touch his nose and say, "Xiao Qing, don’t mind me. I just spoke without thinking. Err... please take a seat, let’s chat. Would you like something to eat? How about I cut an orange for you?" An Zhiyan fumbled with the fruit tray on the coffee table, his clumsy manner quite endearing.
