Those who truly loved shooting would have their eyes lit up the moment they saw a gun.

However, Nan Fei did not. She was only determined to learn this skill.

Nan Fei was stunned for two seconds. She raised her head to look at him before quietly lowering her head again.

Her left hand, which was originally rubbing her right hand, gradually dropped down and pinched the corner of her skirt.

“Commander Zuo, would you believe me if I told you that there is someone in this world who has wanted to kill me since I was born?”

Zuo Qishen’s pupils constricted as if he had thought of something. His gaze as he looked at the woman gradually became complicated.

He knew about this.

Two years ago, on the eve of his going to the front line, Nan Fei had told him through the cold computer screen that she had discovered that she was not her father’s biological daughter. She had also said that she was very afraid because she had a feeling that Meng Hua wanted to kill her.

At that time, he really wanted to look for her, but the military had already sent a helicopter to the roof of his house.

Military orders were like mountains, and he had no choice but to obey. He could only order Lu Jiang to protect her as much as possible.

He also lost the only chance to meet this girl.

“So you only want to learn this to protect yourself?” After a long while, he asked in a hoarse voice.

Nan Fei nodded slightly.

“You’re living alone in Ming An Garden now?”

Nan Fei nodded and shook her head. “Not alone. There’s also Crown Prince.”

“Who’s Crown Prince?”

“My family’s Tibetan mastiff.”

Zuo Qishen stared at her for a long while before saying, “Nan Fei, I’ve just returned to the country and haven’t found a house yet. I’m living in the army barracks now.”

“Ah.” Nan Fei looked at him in a daze. The thought process of Commander Zuo was so fast that she could not keep up. “Looking for a house? Aren’t you living with the Zuo family?”

“There’s only me and my father in the Zuo family. There’s no need for two men to be together every day.”

“Oh.” Nan Fei thought for a moment and then asked, “Don’t you have your own apartment or villa under your name?”

“I’m tired of living here,” Zuo Qishen answered without changing his expression. “I want to buy a new one.”

Nan Fei gave him a thumbs up in her heart and did not say anything else.

“I taught you how to shoot. Shouldn’t you give me something in return?”

“Yes.” Nan Fei nodded in agreement. She was thinking about whether she should treat him to a meal or buy him a gift some other day.

“There’s no need for a meal.” Zuo Qishen seemed to have seen through her thoughts. “I’d rather you help me find a house.”

Nan Fei’s eyes instantly widened. “Shouldn’t this sort of thing be left to your lieutenant? I’m a design student, so I’m not good at choosing houses.”

“Why not?” Zuo Qishen looked at her indifferently. “I think the Ming An Garden place that you chose is pretty good. It’s close to the mountains and rivers.”

Nan Fei took two steps back, her eyes widening. “You want to be my neighbor?”

“No?”

Nan Fei’s head shook like a rattle-drum. She said with certainty, “No, no, no.”

Zuo Qishen’s face darkened as he looked at her coldly.

Nan Fei pursed her lips and said with some embarrassment, “Commander Zuo, when I bought the house two years ago, in order to facilitate the activities of Crown Prince, I bought the entire 16th floor and then renovated all the houses on that floor.”

“So… probably no one can be my neighbor now.”

Zuo Qishen was silent for a while.

Nan Fei carefully looked at Zuo Qishen’s face that seemed to be a little unhappy and said tentatively, “Commander Zuo, but it seems that no one lives below my house yet…”

Commander Zuo’s eyes were deep, and there was even a hint of wanting to smoke.

Men below and women above? That was such a bad moral.
