The sudden and immense shock was like a heavy hammer blow to Lu Baizhou's head, leaving this dignified king of soldiers, who could remain unfazed even if Mount Tai collapsed before him on the battlefield, momentarily unable to react.

In that brief second of his stunned silence—

"Bang!"

Qiao Xinxin flew straight into his arms like a cannonball!

She not only pounced on him, but also unhesitatingly stretched out her hands and tightly hugged his lean and muscular waist, her furry head skillfully rubbing against his broad chest affectionately.

"Brother! I miss you so much! It's been ten years since we last saw each other!" The girl looked up, her voice filled with undisguised joy and coquettishness.

Lu Baizhou's body stiffened abruptly, his back instantly becoming as rigid as a rock, his hands hanging stiffly in mid-air, and even his breathing stopped.

This was quite a commotion; the two guards on duty at the gate nearly popped their eyes out of their sockets when they saw what was happening!

Wow!!!

What a bold woman!

This is none other than Commander Lu, the infamous "Living Yama" of their military region!

Normally, even female soldiers would freeze to death if they got within three meters of him, emanating a chilling aura. Yet today, a young woman was pounced on by him in front of everyone?!

Qiao Xinxin was completely unaware of the terrifying, turbulent gaze emanating from the man above her.

Feeling the hard muscles in her arms, she felt a secret thrill and tightened her grip even more.

"Brother, you've changed so much in the last ten years! You've become more and more handsome!"

Qiao Xinxin clung tightly to him, her little mouth chattering away like it was coated in honey: "You're so amazing! You managed to get a family apartment in the capital so quickly, brother, you're such a source of pride for me!"

Lu Baizhou's Adam's apple bobbed violently as the sweet fragrance of this woman, seemingly imprinted deep within his soul, flooded his nostrils with each breath, leaving him momentarily at a loss.

But this clueless "little rabbit" in his arms wouldn't let go, clinging tightly to his waist.

"Brother, let me tell you, I'm counting on you to take care of me from now on! But don't worry, I definitely won't just sit at home doing nothing. I have a proper high school diploma, and many companies in the city are eager to hire me! By the way, brother, could you help me see if there are any suitable jobs for me in our army? I also want to shine and make a contribution to the army!"

Seeing that there was no response from above for a long time, Qiao Xinxin curiously crawled out of his arms.

She tilted her fair, delicate, and incredibly beautiful face up to him, looking at him expectantly: "Please, brother?"

Lu Baizhou lowered his head and silently looked back at the woman in his arms.

His sharp, knife-like gaze swept over her face, which was beaming with a bright smile, and his thin lips gradually pressed into a dangerous straight line.

A storm raged in Lu Baizhou's heart.

He never expected to see this woman again at the gate of the Imperial Capital Military Region, in such an unexpected situation!

This woman... on that crazy night, stole his 25 years of innocence!

What he found most absurd and hateful was—

She didn't recognize him at all!

Lu Baizhou suddenly laughed.

However, this smile, which seemed to be clenched through gritted teeth, took on a completely different meaning in the eyes of Qiao Xinxin, who was a hardcore fan of good looks.

Oh my god! My brother's smile is so charming!

Who could resist a handsome military officer with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and overflowing hormones smiling at you so affectionately?

Anyway, Qiao Xinxin couldn't refuse!

Lu Baizhou lowered his eyes and looked at the bratty girl in front of him, who was more than a head shorter than him and was smiling at him without a care in the world.

Did this woman even realize that her rough and haphazard actions that night nearly caused him, an injured man, to die from excessive blood loss?

He clenched his back teeth tightly, his cheeks taut, his gaze extremely complex.

What did Bai Zhengyuan say before he left?

Fair skin? Big eyes? Sweet voice?

Old Bai wasn't lying about this.

But what else did Lao Bai say?

A fairy princess? Frail and sickly? Well-behaved and gentle? A porcelain doll who only gets teary-eyed when bullied?!

That's utter bullshit!

What kind of porcelain doll could be so fierce as to pin a scout down and render him immobile?! What kind of frail and sickly girl could have nearly killed him?!

Lu Baizhou took a deep breath and closed his eyes. The images of that night flashed uncontrollably through his mind…

This woman, like a mad leopard cub, frantically pinned him down, and then... then tore his clothes apart, forcibly taking his virginity!

They take advantage of you and then leave you without taking responsibility.

Now, not only has she completely forgotten him, but she's also mistaking him for her biological brother?!

Ah, that's wonderful!

Lu Baizhou was so angry he laughed, his deep black eyes burning with barely suppressed rage and a dangerous glint.

Qiao Xinxin noticed that he was staring straight at her with eyes that seemed to want to devour her, yet he remained silent. She finally sensed that something was wrong.

She reached out her delicate, white hand and boldly tugged at the sleeve of his crisp military uniform, her voice filled with confusion and grievance: "Brother, what's wrong? Why haven't you said anything?"

"You haven't seen me for ten years, have you? I'm Xin Xin, your most beloved little sister!"

That sweet "little sister" finally pulled Lu Baizhou back from his absurd thoughts.

With a cold face, he reached out his large hand without any mercy, grabbed Qiao Xinxin's arm, and pushed the soft woman in his arms away without any politeness.

His deep eyes held a clear glint of anger and mockery as Lu Baizhou looked down at her, uttering each word slowly and deliberately through gritted teeth: "I...am...not...your...brother!"

"Huh?" Qiao Xinxin was pushed back a step, staring blankly at the sky, not reacting at first.

"I said, I'm not your brother Bai Zhengyuan."

Looking into her big, watery eyes, Lu Baizhou couldn't help but want to tear away her innocent facade.

He forced himself to suppress the turmoil in his heart and coldly patted the wrinkled hem of his military uniform that she had pulled out.

"I'm your brother's friend. Your brother just received an urgent mission to the southwestern border and can't come to pick you up in person. So—"

Lu Baizhou leaned down slightly, his handsome face, exuding an intense sense of pressure, approaching her. His voice was low and dangerous: "He asked me to come and pick up your 'well-behaved and gentle' younger sister."

boom--!!!

Qiao Xinxin felt as if a thunderbolt had struck her mind, leaving her completely stunned.

The smile on her face froze instantly. Then, a visible blush spread from the base of her neck to the tips of her ears, and her whole face quickly turned bright red, like a boiled shrimp!
