And even if there were some people whom she could somewhat trust in this life, Nan Hua could not completely change the habit that was drilled into her bone. Some habits were not easy to change no matter what they do.
And in this matter, Nan Hua's vigilance was one of them.
"How about a companion?" Long Qian Xing asked slowly.
Companion?
Nan Hua turned to look at Long Qian Xing with a confused look. She never thought about having someone to accompany her because her missions were often riddled with dangers and confidentiality.
Aside from those who were part of the mission, she didn't usually bring others along.
"Isn't it dangerous to go out by yourself?" Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua's mask carefully. Without the mask to cover her face, Long Qian Xing knew that there would be many people who would be staring at Nan Hua.
There might be other ways for her to hide her appearance, Long Qian Xing knew that there were many methods for disguise.
But no matter how much he read and see that Nan Hua is a very capable person, he still wished that Nan Hua would be safe and sound. He didn't want to hear her got hurt because of something or anything like that.
Not to mention, it was said that during the time when Nan was gone, it was not known where she left.
He didn't know what she was doing.
But if it was dangerous, he would naturally be worried for her.
"It's not." Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing, contemplating how to say that she was not a soft and harmless little bunny. Her martial arts are high and she would be able to protect herself.
Not to mention, during important mission, it would be better for her to go in person because of the high mortality rate. She knew very well that the one with the highest skill in her people would be her.
So, she still went to participate in various missions herself.
"Really?" Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows.
The time when Nan Hua was missing and there was no information, he guessed that there should be other things that she was doing. But what it was, he didn't know and didn't have clue.
Nan Hua was very clever in erasing her tracks. Not to mention, if she disguised herself, it would be harder to find her in the sea of people.
"There are some dangerous missions, but I can handle it." Nan Hua didn't know what she should say about her real identity as part of Dark Moon Organization.
While it was not impossible for her to reveal this identity in the light in the future, she would never say that she was the leader.
Because if she's the leader, the implication was simply too much.
There would be a lot of people swept in the storm and Nan Family would be targeted by others.
Unless she was ready, she would not do it.
"Be careful." Long Qian Xing pursed his lips but didn't pursue this matter. His understanding of Nan Hua was limited to what he had seen in their short interaction.
There were many sides from her that she still didn't know.
Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing and hummed obediently. She had been much more careful when she was doing her missions now. In the past, she would not care about her life and death and put her life on the line almost all the time.
Her body has always been tense as she put herself in the face of dangers countless times.
By now, this time had become very far.
She had a lot of people who cared for her, so she would not throw her life away and purposely put her own life in danger so easily. Making them worry would only make her feel heartache too.
She didn't want to see it.
"I will." Nan Hua's voice was soft and obedient.
Just from hearing her voice alone, Long Qian Xing would think that the person in front of him is a soft and obedient young girl. It was no wonder that he was deep in preconception about Nan Hua and never woke up until the evidence was slapped in front of his face again and again.
"Will you ever tell me about yourself, Hua'er?" Long Qian Xing's voice was low to prevent the guards from hearing him, but it was enough for Nan Hua to hear his words.
Nan Hua's eyes flickered.
There were many things about herself that she had never told Long Qian Xing. Staring from her past, the transmigration, the things she did in Nan Family, and even her real identity aside from the fact that she was the young miss of Nan Family.
Many things couldn't be brought up to the surface and Nan Hua never thought of mentioning some matters.
Everyone had secrets.
This was something that everyone knew and tacitly agreed to never talk to other people most of the time.
But Nan Hua knew that if she truly wanted to spend the rest of her life with Long Qian Xing, it was inevitable that he would notice the few things that she did covertly. After all, he would be staying beside her all the time and Nan Hua might not be able to hide these things forever.
There would be a day when he found out about it.
"In the future," Nan Hua replied.
Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua's appearance and there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips. He might not know many things about Nan Hua, but he still understood that Nan Hua was not the type of person who would easily trust other people.
From her behavior alone, he could already infer this matter.
There was a layer of ice spread around Nan Hua's heart, protecting her like a large barrier.
And he's slowly working to thaw the ice so that he could see the cute girl within.
