Heavens!
Her face buried deep in Su Chaoyang's chest, Mu Xiangwan wished for a bolt of divine lightning to strike right now, splitting the earth in two so she could crawl inside and stay hidden forever!
Those reconnaissance soldiers—his proud proteges, whom Su Chaoyang had always treated graciously—who would've thought they'd betray him like this!
His expression was cold and ominous, scaring the group so badly they couldn't even finish their sentence. All of them crouched down, staring at the ground and wailing: "Su Tuan, this really isn't on us! The orders came directly from the brigade commander; we didn't dare disobey! We made a mistake—we didn't see a thing just now!"
"Yes, yes! We swear, Su Tuan, we didn't see anything! I swear, if I did, I'll gouge my own eyes out!"
They lifted their heads again, faces contorted in pleading, only to be so frightened by Su Chaoyang's glacial demeanor that they quickly cast their gaze downwards once more.
