"Honey, calm down, okay?"
"I really, really didn't mean to stand you up. There really was a mission back at noon… Oh right. I was out to chase the enemy!"
"N-No, he got away…"
Zhao Xidong awkwardly rubbed his nose awkwardly, cursing that d*mned Xu Xiaoshou for getting him into trouble. If it weren't for him, there wouldn't have been such a big commotion.
He then hugged the pretty woman in front of him.
"See, I'm making amends now. Just look at how beautiful the night is. It's so much better to come out on a date at night than in the afternoon.
"I really, really didn't go looking for another woman. You're the only one in my heart.
"Stop being angry, pretty please?"
He looked at the girl, and his affectionate eyes on that handsome face of his reflected a girl whose anger was slowing dissipating.
"Alright, I swear!"
