With the destruction of the archives, the matter concerning Gao Linbing was laid to rest. The true identity of Gao Linbing was a closely guarded secret within the military, and there was a strict rule to keep silent and not spread any information, so everyone tacitly agreed to forget about this person. Of course, it was unknown whether anyone talked about it privately.
Qi Taiguo, after going through this ordeal, despite Cheng Su’s comforting words, chose not to think too much about it. He continued with his training and his duties as usual.
But those who knew him well noticed that Qi Taiguo had changed. The former Qi Taiguo, despite being quiet and composed, always had a bright disposition.
Now, he exuded a certain coldness that made him appear no longer as open as before, but rather stern and tranquil, with an invisible shield raised to protect himself while keeping others at bay.
As a result, Qi Taiguo’s military bearing seemed even more imposing than before. The aura of blood and steel caused others to step back instinctively. In the past, people admired his talents in both academics and martial arts, but now they avoided him.
As someone close to him, Cheng Su couldn’t help but notice Qi Taiguo’s change, though there was nothing she could do. She could only say that the incident with Gao Linbing had indeed affected him.
That night, they were more intimate than usual, and Cheng Su found her waist aching, breathing softly.
What kind of pent-up frustration had this man held in?
She nestled into Qi Taiguo’s arms and said, "Do you know?"
"Hmm?"
"People outside are now calling you the Cold-faced Shura," Cheng Su teased.
Qi Taiguo turned his head and smiled, "What, did I scare you?"
Cheng Su rolled her eyes and said, "Do you think I would be afraid?"
Qi Taiguo pulled her closer, kissed her forehead, and said, "As long as you’re not afraid, it’s fine." He paused and added, "You don’t need to be scared; I won’t harm you or our son."
"Mm, no matter how you are outside, when you come home, you can relax. You don’t have to keep up that shield and mask; it’s exhausting," Cheng Su said.
