Chapter 6, Snowy Night

Yet the young girl Jiang Xue often thinks of the prince on a white horse who saved her. Girls of Jiang Xue's age enjoy dreaming, and she too is lost in a beautiful dream

Brother Yi, have you taken your medicine

That day was also a snowy night, and the time was approximately around 12 o'clock at night

The face of the prince charming, which I have imagined countless times in my heart, is marked by resilience, a glimmer of sharpness, and the blossoming of blood

Brother Yi, let me tell you a joke. In the past, there was a little monk. One day, he went down the mountain...

That day was the first day Li Yang was assigned to Group 9 of the Security Bureau, and he was stationed in Shanghai! On that day, the five brothers of the Tan family, along with Tian Lin and others, went to a restaurant to welcome Li Yang. By around midnight, the brothers from the Security Bureau finally emerged from the restaurant one by one. The restaurant was not far from the assigned residential area, so they decided to walk back.

"Strive, strive! In the future, I must work even harder on my training. Even if I join the Security Bureau's Team 11 and can be with Xue, I will still have to go on missions about once a year. Moreover, once I become a member of Team 11, each mission will be a major task. If I were to sacrifice myself during a mission, what would happen to Xue? I must train diligently; only by becoming stronger can I live longer, survive through each mission, and spend more time with Xue!" Suddenly, Li Yang stood by the streetlight, "The meridians, the fixed meridians are my greatest obstacle to improving my strength! I must train hard; only by becoming stronger can I live longer, survive through each mission, and spend more time with Xue!" Suddenly, Li Yang stood by the streetlight, "The meridians, the fixed meridians are my greatest obstacle to improving my strength! If I had practiced internal skills since childhood, my throwing knife's attack power would have increased several times by now. Meridians, meridians! How infuriating!" Li Yang slammed his fist against the streetlight and the bookstand beside the road, instantly leaving a faint imprint of his fist on the lamp post.

To die for one's country is to fulfill one's loyalty

During his time in the hospital, it was Jiang Xue who took care of him with meticulous attention. Li Yang still remembers the beautiful angel from the moment he fell into a coma. He has developed feelings for Jiang Xue, though he does not understand why. Whenever he sees Jiang Xue, the calmness cultivated through his special forces training dissipates, and his heart begins to race. Sometimes, when the two grow closer, he even feels a slight warmth in his ears.

Thank you!" the girl said to Li Yang, expressing her gratitude

Initially, it was also because the security bureau received the information too late to dispatch someone else, and Montaigne was engaged in another task, so out of necessity, this highly dangerous mission was assigned to Li Yang

It was a snowy night two years ago, with heavy snow falling, and the entire city of Shanghai was draped in silver, leaving only a silvery world between heaven and earth

Li Yang directly accepted the mission; he was already prepared for sacrifice. This awareness had been instilled in him long before he joined the special forces. For the nation to be at peace, there must be a portion of people willing to make sacrifices, so that others can lead a peaceful life

The fleeting flash of the blade

Jiang Xue first assisted Li Yang in implementing some basic protective measures; without these simple life-saving actions, Li Yang would not have been able to wait for medical treatment at the hospital

Jiang Xue's complexion is somewhat pale, and her eyes are slightly red and swollen. She did not sleep at all last night; she is suffering from insomnia

When Li Yang left, he did not notice a girl standing at the door, watching his departing figure. She waited until Li Yang had long disappeared at the end of the street before returning home with a sense of loss.

It was during that occasion that Li Yang learned the girl's name was Jiang Xue

Jiang Xue was momentarily taken aback, but then her smile blossomed, so sweet: "I know that Brother Yi has his own secrets, and no matter when, I will always wait for you!"

Li Yang trembled as he recalled the beautiful angel radiating light from when he was unconscious, as well as the meticulous care Jiang Xue had provided over the past month, and every action imbued with tender affection...

Sitting in the car dispatched by the security bureau, Li Yang opened the gift that Jiang Xue had given her during the farewell. It was a music box, and the melody inside was "Butterfly Lovers." Listening to the music of "Butterfly Lovers," Li Yang recalled Jiang Xue's words during their farewell: "I believe our feelings are just like those in 'Butterfly Lovers'; not even life and death can separate us"

Suddenly, Li Yang seemed to feel the solid ice within his heart shatter with a 'bang', as if glass were breaking

Around 12 o'clock at night, Jiang Xue had just finished her night shift and happened to witness a battle that exceeded her imagination

During their second meeting, it was Jiang Xue who saved Li Yang's life

However, Li Yang immediately called 110 and then continued to talk to the girl. On that occasion, Li Yang escorted the girl home.

... ...

However, the Security Bureau's Group 11 presents a good opportunity. The members of Group 11 are almost all family-oriented. By joining Group 11, Li Yang not only can be with Jiang Xue, but he can also serve the country.

At the outset, Team Leader Montian was carrying out a mission against another dangerous individual, and this task was assigned to Li Yang, who possessed the strongest offensive capabilities. Moreover, Li Yang had previously been an elite member of the special forces ace unit "Dragon Tooth," making him quite familiar with such operations

Li Yang is mistaken; Jiang Xue is not acting impulsively; she is serious. The half-hour phone calls every day feel so brief for both Li Yang and Jiang Xue

The day before Li Yang was to be discharged, in Li Yang's hospital room

The first meeting between He Jiangxue and the hero can be described as a classic case of a hero saving a damsel in distress

Li Yang instantly noticed that someone was being robbed in the alley, and at that moment, the robber had already drawn a dagger. Without hesitation, Li Yang threw a flying knife, piercing the robber's right hand. He then rushed forward to help the victim up from the ground, only to later realize that the person who had been robbed was a girl, a girl who appeared somewhat frail.

Since that day, during his training, Li Yang often found the figure of Jiang Xue appearing in his mind, to which he could only smile self-deprecatingly. As a member of a special department of the country, since entering this department and taking on this honorable profession, he had dedicated his life to the nation; how could he entertain such thoughts? Moreover, it was of no use to think about it.

... ...

Li Yang was taken aback for a moment, then immediately shook his head and said coldly: "I am sorry"

Reflecting on this sentence and recalling Jiang Xue's expression at that time, Li Yang felt a sense of unrest in his heart. However, he soon smiled and said, "Perhaps she was just momentarily infatuated. Two years from now, Jiang Xue may have someone else. I belong to the country; love is merely a luxury! The beautiful angel I saw while unconscious was nothing more than a beautiful dream, along with books..." The beautiful angel I saw while unconscious was nothing more than a beautiful dream, along with books...

Since that rejection, Jiang Xue has not mentioned her confession again. She fully seized the last moments of Li Yang's hospitalization to be with him. Jiang Xue became even more attentive and gentle towards him, completely devoid of the spoiled temperament typical of a twenty-year-old girl

"Two years, if you wait for me for two years, I will definitely marry you!" Li Yang said firmly, and then he turned and left.

"Brother Yi, I like you!" After watching that battle, Jiang Xue realized that Li Yang was not an ordinary person. Upon learning that Li Yang would be leaving the hospital in a week, she could no longer suppress her feelings, fearing that she might never see her Brother Yi again, and thus she could not help but express her emotions.

Li Yang longed for the happy days spent with Jiang Xue, while simultaneously feeling an increasing anticipation for the upcoming assessment: "If my internal strength were to be stronger, wouldn't that provide me with even more assurance? It is regrettable that I started cultivating my internal energy too late, and my meridians have already taken shape"

In the "Double Flower" duo, the Sakura group consists of samurai, while the Chrysanthemum group comprises ninjas. In "Double Flower," the Copper Flower level represents a second-tier expert, the Silver Flower level denotes a third-tier expert, and the Gold Flower level signifies a fourth-tier expert. Ninjas at the "Gold Flower" level are equivalent to innate experts. Moreover, ninjas are elusive and extremely difficult to deal with

Li Yang was severely injured, very severely. He recuperated in the hospital for a full month, and afterwards, he continued his recovery in his villa for two months

The heavy snow fell like goose feathers, filling the sky with snowflakes. Since it was around midnight, there were very few people in this suburban area. Li Yang was among the few who remained most alert, as every soldier in the special forces is both a connoisseur of alcohol and a master of literature. The little bit of alcohol in the tavern was nothing to him.

Jinhua Ninja is dead, and Li Yang is seriously injured

From this statement, it is evident that Jiang Xue is still at an age where she loves to dream, or rather, her emotional maturity remains at that age.

With each passing phone call, Li Yang increasingly felt himself sinking deeper into the mire. He realized that he could no longer leave Jiang Xue, yet he belonged to the nation.

Li Yang was very fortunate; that ninja had already reached the Golden Flower level, which is comparable to innate masters. Li Yang should have been dead, but at the moment he was gravely injured and on the brink of death, his miraculous flying knife technique proved effective. In the final moment, the sudden change in direction of the flying knife caught the Golden Flower ninja off guard, piercing through his throat. However, Li Yang was also in a life-threatening situation.

"Brother Yi, if I cannot be with you, I would rather not marry and live alone in solitude!" Jiang Xue said firmly. She is a gentle girl, and it is rare for her to speak with such determination. This was her decision after a night of contemplation. She decided to make one last effort, which also reflected her true feelings.

... ...

Li Yang fell into a coma when Jiang Xue arrived. In his unconscious state, he vaguely saw a beautiful angel radiating light come to his side. The angel was very beautiful, and the light emanating from her made Li Yang feel warm. Soon after, he fell into a deep unconsciousness.

If you want to be with me, then you must get used to loneliness, Li Yang said calmly

On that occasion, Li Yang went out to carry out a mission, targeting a killer of the 'Jinhua' level from the 'Chrysanthemum' group of 'Shuanghua', one of the three major assassin organizations in the world

The figure that vanished in the blink of an eye
