Chapter 885: He is so Handsome!

If she murdered someone and got caught, there would be no more pardons waiting for her ever again.

Wen He looked at him coldly and pursed her lips. “Then I’ll find him myself.”

One day, she would locate Lin Yuntian.

Then… then she would kill him.

That was her promise to Gu Jinzhi.

“Wen He!”

Huo Chen raised his voice and pulled at her arm.

He looked into her clear and determined and exhaled slowly. Then, he pressed his hands on her shoulders.

“Remember, even if you are no longer a soldier, it does not mean that you can go around killing people. I know what you’re thinking, let me take care of this.”

Wen He was taken aback and felt touched by his offer.

“You?”

“Just leave it to me.”

“Alright.”

After Gu Jinzhi’s death, Wen He became less impulsive and no longer act recklessly as she would before.

She was more open to ideas other than her own. If Huo Chen was willing to help, she should give him some faith.

“I trust you.”

Huo Chen looked at her for a long moment before striding away.

He acted swiftly. Three days later, the news reported that a batch of medical supplies provided earlier by the Lin family was problematic and nearly caused the death of a few soldiers.

The military was outraged and declared Lin Yuntian a wanted man. The latter was lying low in his mansion in a secluded neighbourhood, but was soon caught and sent to prison.

He was sentenced to life in prison.

Wen He was not pleased. She had wanted to kill the man.

Huo Chen explained that some people were best left alive and suffering than dead.

Wen He considered his words and thought that they made sense. Death was a quick and simple ending, but life was so much more frightening.

The days passed by quickly. Soon, the past felt like a distant memory.

Huo Chen performed well in his duties and was promoted to lieutenant general.

Unlike Wen He’s ceremonial rank of second lieutenant, the promotion ceremony for him was grander in scale.

It was carried out in the main building of the military headquarters. It was attended by all high-ranking officers from the army, marine and air forces.

Even the old Chief of Defense, who had not made a public appearance for a long time, came to present Huo Chen’s new badge to him personally.

Wen He attended the ceremony as well.

Time heals all wounds.

The wound in her heart was healed, but the scar would remain there forever.

She got a front row seat for the ceremony, thanks to Huo Chen calling in favours.

Wen He looked at Huo Chen on stage in his smart military uniform, now adorned with a different badge on his shoulder. She saw the golden medal on his chest in recognition of his notable work in the military and felt happy for him.

Huo Chen was most definitely the youngest lieutenant general in the country since its inception.

He was so handsome!

After the chief of defence presented his badge and medal, he stepped away and left Huo Chen alone on stage.

Huo Chen took a sweeping glance of the audience cooly. His eyes lingered on Wen He’s face.

Wen He noticed it and smiled back at him.

Huo Chen was moved, but did not react outwardly.

As was protocol, he started by expressing his gratitude and loyalty to the military.

When he was done, the audience applauded thunderously.

“Finally, I would like to thank someone.”

Huo Chen added abruptly, bringing the end of his speech to an unexpected turn.

He spoke solemnly, but his gaze was gentle and warm, in contrast to his cold profile.

“Without her, I would not be here today. She is more important to me than my life.”

The audience gasped in surprise.

Wen He was taken aback as well.
