"…" Wen He did not speak a word.

"Speak to me!" His body lowered towards her before Wen He felt aches on her chin as it was being lifted by his grip. He looked into the eyes. There was fury and disappointment in them which wounded her heart like a shower of arrows.

Agitation filled her as she howled, "What can I do then? I can't just watch you getting fired, exiled from Country Z with me and never get to return home, can I? Country Z is your home. You have your friends and family here. Don't you remember what your mother expected of you? I don't think she'll rest in peace if you are no longer a soldier!"

She started sobbing towards the end of her confession.

"…" His rage vanished the moment he saw her tears. Huo Chen got even closer and wrapped upon her. His chest was reassuring like a fortress to her broken heart. Wen He held her lips tight, trying to inhibit her choked tears.

Huo Chen grabbed the back of her head with his right hand, "But why have you not talked about this with me beforehand?"

"…" Wen He did not reply.

"I know. I know. The future of my career is important but if I were to make a choice between you and my career, I rather get decommissioned."

Once I love someone, I will do everything for her. Even if it costs me everything. That's the man I am.

Huo Chen's hoarse yet voice sounded calming to her as he made his vow, "I can now tell you loud and clear that I'll never give you up. So, I hope we are on the same page for this, at the very least."

"But…" Wen He was stunned as she raised her head, revealing her teary face "But…"

"No more. No more." Huo Chen's embrace got tighter, "It took us nearly forever to get together. Are you really okay to just let me go and never see me again even after all the hardships we had been through?"

"I… I…"

Of course I'm not okay with this!

What was I thinking? What's happening to me? I made up my mind not too long ago. It took forever for me to be this determined yet it only took him a few words to make my entire world crumble again. Can we? Can we be selfish for once in our life? Can we just forsake everything here and run away? Run to anywhere. There must be a place to accommodate the both of us. Yes, there's hope. As long as I'm with Huo Chen, I'm not afraid anymore. But…

"No!" Wen He reaffirmed her decision before, "I have nothing, therefore I can let go of everything. But you can't."

I can't just run away with him. If we did, how much shame does Country Z have to bear? A hero ditched his own country merely to elope with a woman from a terrorist group?

We might be wanted forever by the public. The military will hunt us down and we will never be in peace.

Huo Chen's cheek tightened, "Trust me!"

"Hm?"

"As long as you listen to me, I can promise you that we will be safe. Anything you've imagined will never happen." He stared at her eyes again. His confidence and charisma shone in his eyes like the pearls under the sea.

"Stay with me a little bit longer. I can make a turnabout out of this. Trust me."

"Trust me."

His words were clear and firm.

"I…" Wen He gazed at the man with a plan. Her whole body was urging her to nod at his proposition yet her mind was screaming at her to never be shaken.
