Even though she could not hear what they spoke, she could tell a lot from Huo Chen’s change of expression. He was smiling. Smiling brightly too.
The doctor looked happy with him.
It hurt. It seriously hurt for Wen He to witness all this.
She was not sure, however, if the heart-wrenching feeling in her was due to envy for the doctor, rage for the sense of betrayal or the fact that she realized that Huo Chen was not cold to everybody and therefore she was never the special one.
“Feeling heartbroken?” Said Gu Jinzhi from her back, causing Wen He to quickly turn to him, nearly kissing him. She backed away clumsily, not forgetting to glare at the naughty man while panting, with her hands against the wall. She scurried away from the scene gracelessly.
Gu Jinzhi knew what the girl saw. He glanced upon Huo Chen with a look of taunting disdain before chasing after Wen He, “Wait for me, Wen He! You forget your Romeo here.”

Yet she closed her eyes.
That’s fine.
That’s great, to be honest.
“Honey, shoulder to cry on for free today, would you like one?” Said Gu Jinzhi with a laid-back posture against the door.
“...” Gu Jinzhi was such an amazing ENTP-like debater that even his voice alone could give Wen He a headache. And she spent the next 10 days isolated from the world again.
The doctor disdainfully announced her recovery and the possibility of getting discharged in a week, with a reminder that she still had to watch her action.
Throughout the entire time she was admitted, never once Huo Chen came and visited her.
She could only wait, as if a criminal about to be executed in the jail, for the date of judgement when Huo Chen confirmed their divorce.
Finally, three more days later, Yang Yi contacted her as he sent his man there.
It was not about her freedom, it was not about the date of their divorce.
Quite the contrary...
“WHY?” She asked, utterly bewildered.
Yang Yi’s assistant hesitated for a moment before breaking the news to Wen He, “General Huo has headed out for a mission. So you two can’t get divorced for the moment.”
“What?” Wen He nearly fell off from her bed, “What kind of mission? To where? What war? I didn’t see any news about conflict between countries. He just came back from a dangerous mission at Golden Triangle and now you guys are sending him out again? He’s a man. He’s not a donkey! Is he the only man left in the military or what?”
“...”
The questions were launched like a barrage as the person rubbed his head.
“Sorry but it’s all classified. The general did mention to discuss about your divorce after this. That’s all.” And before Wen He wanted to ask further, the person quickly left.

Huo Chen was out for another adventure again. And this time, she was not informed at all. Obviously, she was no longer important to him.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK.
Wen He lifted her head and saw the princess trying to act like a bad boy again leaning against the door frame.
Having known he was being watched, he snickered, “Hold your horses, girl! Don’t ask me to shut up just yet. You are informed about Huo Chen now, aren’t you? Well, I have some additional information about it. Would you want to hear it?”
“Spit it!”
Gu Jinzhi sauntered towards her and got really close, “It cost a nice sweet kiss on my-”
SLAP!
Wen He gave a tight slap at the back of his head, “Could you cut that crap and just tell me about the situation?”
“Heartless girl.” Gu Jinzhi rubbed his sore head and went to sit down on the sofa, legs crossed.
“So I heard that there’s something going on at the boundary between Country Z and T. The military of Country T is apparently intruding our country. On top of that, they seem to have formed an alliance with some terrorist groups as well. It’s a war they’re calling for. Clearly.”
“Boundary?” It was not a good reveal as Wen He frowned, “Why, of all men, Huo Chen then?”
Gu Jinzhi shrugged, “He’s a military serviceman. What else does he do?”
