Chapter 589: Chapter 591: I Miss You_1

"When did you return?" Nan Feng walked towards him, and he rose at that moment, pulling her back into his embrace.

"I arrived this morning, I came to see you immediately after," he said.

"How was it? Was your journey to Capital City smooth?" asked Nan Feng.

He gave Nan Feng a kiss and asked her to sit on the stone bench, then started to report the situation: "It was smooth. I learned a lot of information. To avoid attracting suspicion, I escorted Song Cheng back first. In a few days, I’ll go to Capital City again alone. This time, I’m afraid I’ll be gone for a while."

"You’re leaving again? How long will you be gone this time?" Nan Feng asked with reluctance.

"About a month," He replied while stroking Nan Feng’s hair.

He was just as unwilling to leave Nan Feng, but once the wheel of action began to turn, it couldn’t be abandoned halfway.

Nan Feng sighed lightly, "I don’t want you to go, but I can’t stop you. Even Guangguang, so young, knows you’re someone who has important things to do. If I keep holding you back, you wouldn’t be yourself anymore. If you became someone else, you would no longer be the man I love. But I miss you so much and worry for you."

"I miss you too," He caressed Nan Feng’s head and said, "Don’t worry, Fengfeng, I promise I won’t be in any danger. I guarantee I will return safe and sound."

"You must return safely," Nan Feng looked at his handsome yet slightly sunburned face for a long time, as though she wanted to carve his current features into her heart forever.

He was looking at her too. She was still young, her features hadn’t fully developed and were continuing to refine, becoming increasingly delicate.

Pulling her back into his arms, he said: "I promised to protect you to the end and I will keep my promise."

They shared another intimate moment at home.

...

Since his return from Capital City, Song Cheng, as per his request, has stopped handling Qin Kun’s affairs. He assigned him a task based on information he obtained from the capital city. A notorious outlaw had escaped to Capital City years ago, he ordered him to arrest the fugitive. That gave him another reason to leave.

After that, Song Cheng got busy with Song Xiaoyue’s wedding. The son of Prefect Liu originally became a scholar to marry Song Xiaoyue and secured a job in the Academy in Provincial City. But with Song Cheng already a minister of the Inspection Mansion, Prefect Liu’s son seemed to be of lower status, which made Song Xiaoyue regret and consider calling off the marriage several times.

But calling off the marriage was something that both Song Cheng and his wife firmly disagreed with.

Song Cheng believed that his future son-in-law is young, it doesn’t matter that his status is a bit low now. As long as he’s willing to work hard, he will have a bright future.

His wife was even more persistent, seeing her future son-in-law more and more favorably as time went by. Especially because he has a good character, is protective of his wife, and insisted that Song Xiaoyue marry soon no matter what.

One day, Song Xiaoyue saw Wu Yang at the back door of the Inspection Mansion, they nodded at each other.

Just as Wu Yang was about to leave, Song Xiaoyue turned around and said, "Wu Yang, wait a moment."

"Miss, what can I do for you?" Wu Yang asked.

Song Xiaoyue hesitated for a moment, but eventually asked her question: "Why hasn’t he been around lately?"

"He went to Capital City to hunt down a notorious outlaw," Wu Yang answered.

"Oh, what does this infamous outlaw do? Is he dangerous?" She immediately looked worried.
