The cold wind blew through the night. When she woke up the next morning, a thick layer of leaves had fallen from the ground outside the courtyard and were piled under the steps in front of the door.

Qin Su had a rare rest, but she was used to waking up early. So early in the morning, when the sun had just risen, she had already woken up. After tidying up, she cooked porridge in the kitchen, simmered it over a small fire, and then went out for a run.

When she was free, she was also someone who valued sports. Zhou Zimo had his own private tennis court in the backyard, and the two of them had even sparred over the past two days.

The sky gradually brightened up. When Zhou Zimo got up and finished tidying up and was about to go downstairs to make breakfast, he found that the porridge had already been cooked in the pot, and some simple dishes were also placed in the pot to heat up.

He raised his eyebrows subconsciously and quickly went out to look for Qin Su. He found officer Qin Su cleaning up the fallen leaves and early-blooming plum blossom petals in the corridor of the backyard.

Qin Su was wearing a loose knitted long gown today. Her hair was casually made into a bun, revealing her delicate and indifferent facial features. Wearing the knitted long gown, she looked very petite, and her sleeves were slightly rolled up, her fair arms were exposed.

“It’s such a cold day, who told you to be so proactive?”

Seeing this, Zhou Zimo walked over with big strides. He reached out to grab the broom in her hand and grabbed her arm with one hand. “There are regular maids at home who come to clean, so I don’t need you to do this. Are you cold? Are you cold?”

As he said this, his large hand slid down and held her hand tightly. A heart-chilling feeling immediately spread from his palm to his body.

“I’m just looking for something to do. It’s not that cold, and I’m not that afraid of the cold.”

Qin Su glanced at him from the side. Her gaze fell quietly on the hand that he was holding tightly, and she subconsciously struggled.

“Nonsense! I know that you’ve always been afraid of the cold.”

Zhou Zimo scolded her in a low voice and placed the broom to the side. “There’s no need for servants here. Leave these things to the servants.”

Qin Su also took the opportunity to struggle out. She glanced at the broom that was thrown to the side and paused for a moment before taking a step forward. She held onto the railing in front of her and looked at the few plum blossoms that were blooming in front of her

“The plum blossoms bloomed quite early this year.”

“Fortunately, it’s around the same time as the previous years. I’m afraid you won’t be able to see such plum blossoms in the northwest, right?”

Zhou Zimo also stood beside her and asked in a low voice.

“The northwest is a poor place. The land is wide and sparsely populated. It’s not like we could grow such flowers and trees at home. Over there, the flowers and leaves will all wither in winter. The only thing that left a deep impression was the rows and rows of poplar trees. The hillside behind the base is planted with such plants. Deep in the base is a large desert. The trees block the wind and sand. They are the most common trees in the northwest.”

As Qin Su spoke, a nostalgic look appeared in her eyes. However, now that she had returned to this place, she could not help but feel a little emotional every time she thought about everything that had happened over there.

As he listened, Zhou Zimo slowly turned his gaze away and quietly sized her up. He saw that her long eyelashes were fluttering, and her expression was a little serene and distant. He was somewhat attracted and could not regain his senses.

As if she could sense Zhou Zimo’s gaze, Qin Su also turned her head to look at him. She caught his gaze in her eyes. After pausing for a moment, she finally turned her gaze away indifferently and looked at the plum blossom petals that were fluttering in the wind in front of her.

“Looks like you still like the northwest more than your home. Is there nothing here for you to miss?”

Zhou Zimo suddenly looked at her and asked.

Qin Su paused for a moment and did not say anything.

“Qin Su, stay here peacefully. Consider me shamelessly begging you to stay, you said that you would give us a chance. Tell me that you won’t lie to me.”

As Zhou Zimo spoke, he could not help but reach out and pull her in. He held her shoulders and asked her to look at him.

Qin Su frowned and wanted to break free, but Zhou Zimo held onto her tightly. She could only give up and let him look at her.

“I have no intention of changing my mind. You’re thinking too much. I’ve always been a person of my words. Since I’ve said it out loud, I have to do it well.”

Qin Su explained calmly.

Zhou Zimo listened and heaved a sigh of relief. He quickly pulled her into his embrace and whispered into her ear, “That’s good! As long as you’re willing... As long as you’re willing, everything is fine.”

He was most afraid that she would think about leaving this place and leave him like before, with no way to find her. It was not easy for him to get news of her, and it was not easy for him to get to this point. Of course, he would not give up.

He initially thought that it was just some guilt, but unexpectedly, the more he came into contact with her, the more he seemed to be attracted to her. She basically did not have to do anything, and his gaze could not help but fall on her body, he was deeply attracted to her.

Hearing this, Qin Su quietly raised her head and looked at him for a long time. Then, she said indifferently, “It’s already winter. It must be very cold over there.”

“It should be snowing over there at this time.”

“Yes. The snow usually falls very heavily. Some of the soldiers also can’t endure it, especially those new recruits who have just passed. Most likely, they can’t endure the cold weather. Then, every time at this time, their thoughts would be especially strict.” Qin Su said in a low voice.

“Do you sometimes find it very hard too?”

Zhou Zimo asked as he looked at her with a faint look of concern.

“It’s alright. I wasn’t used to it at the beginning, but I got used to it after that.”

Qin Su replied without much emotion on her face. “At that time, I didn’t want to leave without saying goodbye. It’s just that the mission I received at that time was more urgent, so I had to return to the team and return to the military hospital to recuperate.”

This was the first time Qin Su had explained these things to Zhou Zimo, and she had always been the type of person who would not explain too much.

“After I woke up, I sent someone to look for you, but the news I received back then was that you had already left.”

Zhou Zimo sighed. “Later on, I even looked for you, but I couldn’t find you even after looking for a long time.”

“I’ve already told Mu Yuchen and Su Chen. I got someone to leave them a message.”

“I know. They told me when I woke up later on. They also wanted me to properly thank you for saving my life.”

Zhou Zimo replied quietly.

“I was just doing my job. At that time, I would’ve saved anyone. I think you would’ve done the same.”

As Qin Su spoke, he turned to look at him. There was a rare smile at the corner of his mouth.

Zhou Zimo seemed to be able to read her eyes. He smiled but did not say anything.
