Chapter 1484: Chapter 1484: Take Good Care of Her

"Do you have any other questions?"

"Instructor Shang, don’t be afraid, okay? I just have a few questions I want to ask you."

"What is it?" Shang looked at Jian Dan with a guarded expression.

Jian Dan walked back into the office. After taking only a few steps—still some distance away from Shang’s desk—he immediately told her to stop, "Just stay right there and speak."

"What, are you afraid I’ll eat you or something?"

"I wouldn’t rule that out."

"Tch~ I’m not someone who eats just anything, you know. With my refined taste, my mouth is pretty picky!"

Shang rolled his eyes at Jian Dan, clearly picking up on the hidden meaning in her words.

"Alright, alright. I actually came to ask you about you and Xiao Ting..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Shang’s expression had already changed. Some questions didn’t need asking; Jian Dan could figure it out on her own.

"Come on, spill it. When did you and Xiao Ting start dating, and how long has it been? That person you mentioned when you came to save me last time—was it Xiao Ting? And do you really like her? Are you planning to marry her?" Jian Dan fired off a series of questions in one breath.

"Jian, is your mouth wound up with a spring? You don’t even pause to take a breath, do you?"

"A skill this advanced, you’ll never learn it—you can only admire!"

Admire? Ha! Aside from being noisy, there’s absolutely no upside to it!

"You asked so many questions at once. How am I supposed to answer?"

"One at a time, of course!"

"I can’t even remember all your questions—how am I supposed to answer?"

"Oh, please, who are you trying to fool? There’s no way you didn’t remember them. Even if I asked twice as many questions, you’d still remember. Trying to bluff me? Not a chance!

Spit it out, quick. Confession earns leniency; resistance invites severity!"

"Am I your prisoner now?"

"At this moment... yes!"

Truthfully, Jian Dan could’ve just asked Xiao Ting, but considering Xiao Ting’s current emotional state, she decided it would be better to ask Shang instead.

"Xiao Ting and I started dating three months after she arrived at the base. As for how long it’s been, you do the math yourself. The person I mentioned last time was indeed Xiao Ting. I like her very much. Before meeting her, I never even thought about marriage, but after meeting her, it feels like marriage could actually be a great thing!"

"Seems like you’re really smitten with Xiao Ting."

"I don’t know... I just know I want to see her every day. I can’t stand seeing her hurt or upset. When she’s hurt, it feels worse than being hurt myself. When she cries, my heart aches terribly. I really don’t want to see Xiao Ting sad, but it seems like I haven’t done a good job of preventing that." A hint of sorrow flickered in Shang’s eyes.

"So, your heart’s been hurting a lot lately, huh?"

"Even getting heart disease wouldn’t feel this bad!"

"Got it. That’s all I needed to know. I’m leaving now!"

As Jian Dan was opening the door to leave, Shang suddenly said, "Jian, take care of Xiao Ting for me. She doesn’t want to see me recently."

"Don’t worry! Even if you didn’t ask, I’d still do it.

By the way, I’m going to stay in the old room again, okay? I want Xiao Ting to stay with me. You don’t have any objections, right?"

"Thank you, Jian!"

Jian Dan smiled without answering, turned around, and left Shang’s office...

"Xiao Ting~"

"Jian, you’re back!"

"Yup! All sorted out."

"What’s all sorted out?"

"Just... pack your stuff and come with me. I’ll explain as we go."

"Pack my things? For what?"

"Stop asking so many questions. I’m not going to sell you or anything. Just pack your things and come with me—you’ll see."

Although Xiao Ting didn’t know what Jian Dan was intending, she still did as Jian Dan said.

Jian Dan accompanied Xiao Ting back to the dorm to pack. When the two of them entered the dorm room, everyone’s eyes turned to them, and they began muttering some unpleasant comments.

"Xiao Ting, go pack your things," Jian Dan said, giving Xiao Ting a slight push on the back.

"Oh!" Xiao Ting was already used to this kind of treatment from them, so she didn’t take it to heart.
