Arranged marriage, love blossoms; a fiercely devoted soldier dotes on her alone.

Night falls exceptionally early in Beijing during winter.

Snowflakes danced in the biting wind, creating a uniquely romantic winter scene.

As the saying goes, even if it's not cold during the coldest days of winter, you'll freeze like a dog.

"Boom!"

As dusk fell, a Gulfstream G650 private jet landed on the runway of Beijing Capital International Airport.

The private jet, guided by an airport tow truck, taxied slowly for a distance before coming to a stop in its designated parking spot.

at this time,

A Maybach and two minivans were parked nearby. Xiao Zhan, with his sharp, angular frame, stood by the car door, facing the cold wind, as if the biting snow was nothing more than a test for him.

The cabin door slowly opened and the gangway lowered, revealing a stunning figure. She possessed a breathtakingly beautiful face, a curvaceous figure, and long, straight legs. Beyond her exquisite features and perfect physique, she exuded an inner and outer elegance. From her eyebrows to the corners of her mouth, every smile and gesture was composed, graceful, and confident, captivating all who looked upon her…

"Su Zixing, welcome to the capital!"

Xiao Zhan waved his hand and called out.

When Su Zixing saw the man she had been longing for, her eyebrows sparkled and she revealed a shy smile. This smile was reserved only for this particular man; not every man could enjoy such treatment.

Su Zixing parted her teeth slightly and called out, "Xiao Zhan, could you come up and help me?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan hesitated for a moment, then quickly stepped forward, climbed the gangway, and came to Su Zixing, jokingly saying, "Miss, we meet again. Welcome home."

Upon hearing this, Su Zixing's nose tingled, and her eyes instantly welled up with tears. She whispered, "Yes, we meet again, but is the capital city still my home?"

Xiao Zhan laughed and said, "Of course it's your home."

Su Zixing swayed slightly and whispered, "Xiao Zhan, won't you hug me?"

Xiao Zhan hesitated again, but when he saw the longing in Su Zixing's eyes, his heart softened, and he stepped forward to gently hug the woman who looked much thinner.

Su Zixing inhaled deeply the cool, masculine scent emanating from Xiao Zhan. It was still that unique masculine aroma, so wonderful, the same scent that had lured her awake countless times in her dreams…

Su Zixing couldn't help but whisper in Xiao Zhan's ear, "Xiao Zhan, I miss you so much."

"I... I almost didn't get to see you again."

Xiao Zhan's expression froze upon hearing this, then he gently released Su Zixing and said in a low voice, "Su Zixing, can you please stop doing this? You're making us both very awkward. I've told you before that we can't be together. I have a wife."

With tears welling up in her eyes, Su Zixing said, "I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself, I really couldn't hold back, I miss you so much."

At that moment, a tall, blonde, blue-eyed woman appeared at the cabin door.

Xiao Zhan exclaimed in surprise, "Dr. Jones, you're here too."

Dr. Jones happily reached out to shake hands with Xiao Zhan and said, "Mr. Xiao, it's a pleasure to see you again. I was worried about Miss Su if I didn't come along; she just had surgery a few days ago."

Xiao Zhan looked at Su Zixing in surprise and said, "You just had surgery and you're already taking a long-haul flight? Are you crazy?"

A blush immediately appeared on Su Zixing's fair face; even being scolded with concern by a man felt like happiness.

Su Zixing smiled calmly at Xiao Zhan and said, "You know what? I won my bet."

Then he looked at Jones and said, "Dr. Jones, we won the bet."

Dr. Jones stepped forward and hugged Su Zixing, saying, "Yes, we succeeded, and you have been given a new life. I think your father's blessing is here; he is praying for you in heaven and silently watching over you."

Xiao Zhan asked excitedly, "Su Zixing, did you have surgery for a hereditary disease?"

Su Zixing: "Yes, thank you for that. The information you provided was extremely important. Dr. Jones immediately organized a team of experts to conduct research, analysis, and verification after receiving the information you sent. They finally found the difference between my genes and those of Deng Xiaoping, and then conducted further research into the causes of gene mutations. In the end, they found the root cause and differences of gene mutations, and found ways and methods to deal with them."

Xiao Zhan asked in surprise, "So you've cured your family's hereditary disease through surgery? And your future children won't have the same hereditary disease?"

Dr. Jones: "That's the principle, but the surgery was just completed, so we need to continue to monitor and study the genetic changes."

Xiao Zhan: "Su Zixing, congratulations on your rebirth."

Su Zixing: "It's all thanks to you. You're my savior. I want to..."

Xiao Zhan, of course, knew what Su Zixing was about to say, so he interrupted her in time and said, "We are good friends and comrades-in-arms. You don't need to be so polite with me. Besides, Brother Deng Zhi entrusted you to me, so I should do everything I can to help you. As the saying goes, 'If you are entrusted with something, you should be loyal to it.'"

Xiao Zhan emphasized the words "Brother Deng Zhi" to remind Su Zixing that Deng Zhi and he were brothers, and Su Zixing was his junior, so she shouldn't have any wild thoughts.

At this moment, several more people came out of the cabin and went up to greet Xiao Zhan.

"Hello, Young Master Xiao!"

"Hello, Young Master Xiao!"

Xiao Zhan saw that it was Deng Hai and Deng Qian and a few others, so he went up and hugged them one by one to greet them.

Xiao Zhan looked up at the snow-covered night sky and said, "It's getting dark. Let's go back to a hotel in the city and talk some more."

"Everyone, get into those two minivans in the back."

"Miss and Dr. Jones, please ride in my car."

So the group got into the car and drove towards the city...

Inside the Maybach,

Su Zixing seemed excited yet somewhat nervous. Looking at the skyscrapers flashing past the car window, she said, "My adoptive parents said I lived in Beijing until I was three or four years old before leaving, but I have no memory of it at all."

Xiao Zhan: "I was too young at the time, so I can't remember."

Su Zixing suddenly asked, "Xiao Zhan, do you think Deng Ying is prettier or I am?"

Xiao Zhan paused for a moment, then said, "You are both very beautiful, and each of you has a different kind of beauty."

Su Zixing then asked, "How about me compared to Qin Huanhuan?"

Xiao Zhan looked at Su Zixing's smug face and knew that she was deliberately making things difficult for him. This was a death sentence; no matter how he answered, he would offend another woman.

After a moment's thought, Xiao said, "To be honest, you two each have your own unique charm and different kinds of beauty. In my eyes, you are both the most beautiful and gorgeous women."

"My character and personality prevent me from speaking ill of others; I can only say that my wife is excellent."

That's a fantastic answer.

However, Su Zixing seemed dissatisfied and said in a coquettish tone, "Xiao Zhan, then praise me. If you make me happy, I won't make things difficult for you."

Dr. Jones winked at Xiao Zhan, as if to say, "Young Master Xiao, please make an exception for her; she just had surgery."

So Xiao Zhan said, "Alright then, anyone can praise someone. I'll praise you to the heavens, but if you can't handle it and fall down, I won't be responsible."

Su Zixing: "I'd rather die than blame you."

Xiao Zhan: "Then listen carefully."

Then, after organizing his thoughts, he said, "Shallow people only see your beauty that rivals the moon and shames the flowers, but those who understand you know that you are a woman with the heart of a magnolia and a mind as rich as gold. Before, I only saw your willow-leaf eyebrows, peach blossom eyes, and cherry lips. Now I realize that these are just your most insignificant virtues. Among the myriad beauties, only you are the most dazzling. I want to use the phrase 'surpassing Wang Zhaojun's rebirth' or 'Xi Shi's reincarnation' to describe one ten-thousandth of you. Please forgive my lack of culture, because there are still nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine ten-thousandths that I cannot express. It is like the blush on your cheeks when we first met, or like the winter plum blossoms before they encounter the winter snow and are not yet in bloom."

"Hehehe! You know I'm not good with words. That's all I can say, are you satisfied?"
