WARNING! Tsundere President - Chapter 838

“Huh?”

How did that happen?!

Song Shou scratched his head in confusion but did not ask any further. It was at least some good news.

He nodded. “Come with me.”

Along the way to Huo Chen, they passed by a few buildings and saw many other soldiers.

However, they did not greet her warmly and with respect as they did before. Instead, they simply looked at her.

It was a look of anger, revulsion, and veiled hostility.

Wen He looked down and asked quietly, “Song Shou, do you hate me as well?”

Song Shou was taken aback.

“Ma’am, I believe in my superior’s choice.”

He was shaken by Wen He’s true identity at first, but his trust in Huo Chen remained stolid.

Since Huo Chen had chosen her, she must be not a terrible person.

“Thank you.”

Wen He smiled briefly.

Song Shou might accept her, but that did not mean others would.

Oh, Huo Chen…

As Z Country’s brave young soldier, he was like a god put on a pedestal by the country’s people.

She, on the other hand, was a tainted woman.

They were like the angel and the devil, destined to different worlds with no hope of ever being together.

“We’re here.”

Song Shou brought her to a building and led her inside to a confinement room.

The room was designed like a normal jail, but it was humid and pitch black inside like the depth of the abyss.

It was used to punish soldiers who committed wrongdoing.

When the lights were switched on, Wen He saw Huo Chen.

He was locked inside one of the cells, sitting up straight on a simply wooden bed. He looked characteristically detached and impassive.

There was only a slight frown on his face that betrayed his vexation. When the light came on, he narrowed his eyes uncomfortably.

“… Huo Chen.”

Wen He approached his cell and grabbed the bars with her left hand.

“Wen He?”

Huo Chen was taken by surprise. He ignored his discomfort from the sudden burst of light in the room and looked toward her. A smile lit up his face when he finally saw her.

He stood up and went to her quickly. He put one hand around hers on the bars and sighed.

“I just know that you will force your way in here.”

“…”

Wen He simply smiled at him and did not comment.

Huo Chen did not seem to notice the torment in her eyes. He slipped his fingers between hers and smiled lovingly at her.

“When will you learn to listen to orders?”

Wen He nearly burst out crying when she heard that.

She smiled even wider and spoke chokingly.

“How will I listen when you are not around?”

“I am fine.”

Huo Chen continued speaking with the story he had prepared.

“Do you remember Sha Kang from the Golden Triangle? I thought you were dead back then and killed him despite orders from the commander. As punishment, the commander decided to lock me up for some time.” He smiled and said, “This will take a few months at least. Are you touched?”

Tears finally escaped her eyes when she heard him spout lies so easily to her.

This man…

Had she not found out what happened from Yang Yi, she may just accept everything he said as the truth.

Song Shou bowed his head deeply and remained silent.

“Don’t cry.”

Huo Chen could not bear to see her sad. He reached out to wipe away her tears and looked at her tenderly.

“Not to worry, this is only temporary. Just wait for me at home. Once I am released, we will have a wedding.”
