Chapter two hundred and forty second old acquaintance
It often snows in Beicheng in late winter, which is both bitingly cold and breathtakingly beautiful.
Lu Liangshuang was surprised and a little happy when she received Shen Junqing's call.
People like him either have no news for a long time, or they suddenly appear in front of us.
I just didn't expect Shen Junqing to come to Beicheng.
After the two met, Lu Liangshuang noticed that Shen Junqing's strong face had scars, like knife wounds.
"What happened to your face?"
"I was injured while on a mission overseas. It's not a problem." Shen Junqing is still taciturn, with a straight back and a habitually serious expression. Only the look in Lu Liangshuang's eyes is somewhat warm.
The two of them were standing on the roadside like this. The wind and snow were very cold, and Lu Liangshuang subconsciously tightened her down jacket.
"Let's find a place to chat, okay? I'll ask Xu Wan to come over too."
Shen Junqing stared at her: "Don't call her, I just want to see you today."
No matter how dull Lu Liangshuang was, she still vaguely felt something. He had never been like this before, and the whole state was very abnormal.
Before she could speak, Shen Junqing turned around and walked towards the shopping mall not far away.
The two sat down in the warm cafe, Shen Junqing stirred coffee in his hand and his thoughts wandered.
"There are many plainclothes bodyguards around you, all of whom are well-trained. They value your life safety very much." Shen Junqing said.
Lu Liangshuang paused slightly: "A lot?"
She thought there might only be one or two, and she didn't think those bodyguards were well-trained, or Ye Jinfu had replaced all the original bodyguards.
"A lot." Shen Junqing looked at the fair and tender woman in front of him with delicate and gentle face, his eyes were deep.
It seemed that less than a year had passed, but he felt as if he hadn't seen her for many years.
In Shencheng, he heard that she had an accident some time ago. He was worried at first, but now looking at her condition, he realized that Ye Jinfu also took good care of her.
Lu Liangshuang looked at him steadily: "What's wrong with you?"
Shen Junqing shook his head: "I just missed you. After I returned to Shencheng, I heard your elder brother told you about you, so I wanted to come to Beicheng to see you."
Lu Liangshuang was in a complicated mood, and her eyes were a little sore.
She and Shen Junqing were almost childhood sweethearts, and she knew him very well. She could sense the slightest bit of something wrong with him.
But now, they keep silent about many things, and they can't go back to the past no matter what.
"Then what do you think of my life in Beicheng?"
"He values you very much, and you are well taken care of by him." Shen Junqing showed a faint smile.
Lu Liangshuang's eyes wandered over his hands many times. Some of the scars were covered by the cuffs. The last time they met, he didn't have so many obvious scars on his body.
"Are you seriously injured?" Lu Liangshuang hesitated for a long time before asking.
Shen Junqing paused for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at her: "No..."
"Junqing, even if we can't be lovers, we are still friends who grew up together, so why should you be like this?"
Seeing that she was getting serious, Shen Junqing laughed again and pointed upward: "Because of my meritorious service, I was promoted."
There was no smile on Lu Liangshuang's face. Even though she usually didn't care about many things in the army, she still knew what kind of price those nobles would have to pay.
"Junqing..."
"I almost died on that mission. I came to see you today out of selfish motives. I'm afraid that in the future..."
Lu Liangshuang interrupted him sharply: "Shen Junqing! What are you talking about?"
