Luo Sang really wanted to say loudly that she wasn't angry because of jealousy. However, no matter how hard she tried, Nian Junting wouldn't believe her. Besides, Nian Junting's pitiful look also made her give up.

"When I was 21, I was still a soldier." Nian Junting turned around and laid down by her side. Under the lamplight, the dimness in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

"It was the most important period of my military life. We received the order from our superior. I needed to go to Xinjiang to carry out a secret mission. My superior said that as long as I completed the mission, he'd apply for a transfer for me, and I'd be promoted. However, the night before leaving, I received a message from my family. It was like thunder in a clear sky to me. Before that, I thought I was the luckiest person in the world." Nian Junting sighed, faced Luo Sang, and continued, "I was born as a blessed child. My father is from a military family, while my mother comes from business tycoons. People admired me for who I was, added with the fact that I'm outstanding and handsome. I was so perfect."

Listening to his story, Luo Sang was feeling a little sad at first, but now, the sadness had faded away. "Alright, cut the unnecessary part. Talk about what's important," she said.

Nian Junting gave her a sullen glance and replied, "All of what I said is necessary." Then he lowered his eyes and carried on. "But that day, my family fell apart. From the time I was little, my father taught me to protect my country, be loyal to my family, and be responsible like a man. Yet at that moment, the great father figure in my heart was suddenly shattered. In my soldier days, I saw my father as a goal to strive for, but in the end, I heard that he cheated on my mother with her best friend."

He clenched his fists and said, "How can such a nasty man even exist in this world? Back then, he knew that I was with Leng Shuangwei. Our parents had agreed to make an arrangement for our engagement when I came back for the New Year. However, he cheated on my mother with Leng Shuangwei's mother behind our backs. That was so disgusting."

Luo Sang had this sour feeling in her heart. It turned out that Nian Junting had nearly been engaged to Leng Shuangwei. At the same time, she felt sorry for Nian Junting. After all, what his father did was a humiliation for him.

"I was young. My endurance was limited. However, the mission was urgent. Because I was thinking about all those family things, I couldn't focus during the mission. As a result, I was hurt badly in battle and had to retire." Nian Junting couldn't hide the loneliness in his voice. "I laid in bed for a month. Once I got back on my feet, I beat my dad and made him lay down for a while as well. But of course, I also made my own wounds start bleeding again. I broke up with Leng Shuangwei. Her parents divorced because of what happened. Later, when we saw each other, we both felt embarrassed."

Luo Sang couldn't think of a word to say. She now understood that he couldn't stay in the army because he had been affected by what happened to his family. She sighed, then rubbed his head. A while later, she asked, "Didn't you have other girlfriends after that?"

"Well..." Nian Junting was embarrassed. Would he make himself sound less charming if he admitted that he had been single for seven or eight years? It had already been embarrassing enough for him to tell her that he was still a virgin.

"Tell the truth." Luo Sang rolled her eyes.

"...No." Nian Junting lowered his head like a quail. "But my charm is without doubt. At least 80 girls have tried to pursue me over the past few years, but at last, I was conquered by your old-school yet excellent hard-to-get game."
