Chapter 858: Qi Zhenbai, Late at Night
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After confirming that her father was asleep, and with nothing to do, Chi Shuyan cultivated for a while. At one or two in the middle of the night, her phone on the bedside table suddenly rang.
Chi Shuyan opened her eyes in a daze. At first, she thought it was the alarm, but as soon as she turned it off, her phone rang again. This time, Chi Shuyan’s mind cleared a little. She subconsciously wanted to hang up again, when she saw the words “Qi Zhenbai” on the screen.
Chi Shuyan was pretty much awake now. She looked at the time. It was almost 2am. Why was this man calling so late?

It had only been a short while that they hadn’t seen each other, but Chi Shuyan felt that it had been a long time since she had heard this man’s voice or seen him. She remembered that he had been busy lately and hadn’t sent her a single message.
No matter how big Chi Shuyan’s heart was, she still felt out of sorts at that moment. However, when the man said, “I’m downstairs,” her mind went blank.
Chi Shuyan didn’t understand what the man meant. She was in the military district now; he was downstairs where?
Wait, could it be that he was here in the military district right now?
Would the soldiers on duty let him in so late at night?
Chi Shuyan was deep in thought when the man said, “I’m downstairs outside your place in the military district.” Her mind went blank again as his words chased all her sleepiness away.
She hurriedly walked to the window of her room and drew open the curtain. She was only on the third floor, so she could clearly see the military car down below, as well as the tall and familiar figure in front of it.
Chi Shuyan was so shocked that her hand trembled as she held the phone. The man’s deep voice rang out again. “Wife, are you asleep?”
“No…” At that moment, Chi Shuyan didn’t care whether or not the man was discovered by her father. She hurriedly said, “I see you. I’ll go downstairs now. Wait for me!”
With that, she hung up and immediately went downstairs in her pajamas.

She saw the tall, travel-worn man.
The man was dressed in a black trench coat. Against the light, his expression couldn’t be seen clearly, but his face was as cold and stiff as usual. He stood straight and unmoving, his deep eyes as sharp as a falcon’s.
When Chi Shuyan got downstairs, the man’s sharp gaze made her hair stand on end. Qi Zhenbai also saw his wife, and his cold gaze disappeared. Although his thin lips were still pursed tightly, there was a subtle curve at the corners, and his cold face turned very gentle.
Chi Shuyan could still be calm before this, but now that she really saw that he was here looking for her at two in the morning, she ran over and pounced on him. She wrapped her arms and legs around him and beamed with excitement. “Why are you here?” And he arrived at almost two in the morning!
Qi Zhenbai hugged his wife’s waist tightly and let her wrap her legs around his waist. She also hugged him tighter around the neck, and was practically hanging off him. His thin lips pursed slightly. “What do you think? If I came any later, would my wife have forgotten my existence?”
Chi Shuyan was about to shake her head and say no, when a mournful scream suddenly rang out in the distance. Her senses were very sharp after cultivating, and she could hear anything within ten kilometers. Qi Zhenbai was from the special forces, so he could vaguely hear the scream. His face changed drastically and he narrowed his eyes sharply, and was subconsciously about to put his wife down.
Chi Shuyan focused and recognized Fang Qingyang’s voice. Seeing that her man’s senses were unexpectedly sharp, she was amused. She hugged him and refused to let go.. “It’s fine, it’s just a small thing.”
