章節 50: I Had Made My Bed

In an ideal world, Bai Long Qiang would have stayed by my side for a month before he had to go back to the base in City D, but one thing this world had in common with mine was that it wasn't an ideal world.

"I'll be back as soon as I can," said Bai Long Qiang as he stood in front of me. I looked up at him and smiled, but I knew that it didn't reach my eyes.

"I know," I replied as I pushed his even closer to the door and the taxi waiting on the other side.
