"Gu Zichen, does every mission have to be like this?" Qiao Xiguan asked him.
"No." Gu Zichen replied, his gaze fixed on Qiao Xiguan. "They're all very smart, with plenty of experience from past missions. Most of the time, coordination is enough to ensure smooth operations. But..."
Qiao Xiguan looked at him.
"But I've said before, I won't let any of my companions by my side sacrifice themselves again. So for this operation, before doing anything, I'll go scout the situation first. For anything I can foresee and control, I'll prepare safeguards in advance."
Qiao Xiguan's throat moved slightly.
What kind of resolve was Gu Zichen carrying out this mission with?!
She honestly didn't want to know.
The nights in the S-Tec Country, in the Arab region, were eerily quiet.
Qiao Xiguan lay next to Gu Zichen, quietly leaning against his body.
