Tangling with the Western Commander-Chapter 507 - 504

Suddenly, her nose tingled inexplicably and her eyes heated up. Burrowed in the couch, she reached out her hand and said in a soft, glutinous voice, "Hug."

Lu Xiao: "..."

Seeing her ask for a hug like a child, his heart melted into a mess, how could he refuse?

He simply picked her up horizontally from the couch.

Wen Xian snuggled against him in his embrace, seemingly scared by the dream she had just experienced. But not wanting Lu Xiao to worry, she still said, "...It’s nothing, I just dreamed that I was waiting for your return, endlessly waiting without you coming back..."

In reality, she had dreamed of an explosion.

The heatwave from the explosion, even in the dream, felt as if it was burning her alive.

But who was at the center of the explosion...?

Some things are forgotten upon waking, and she couldn’t remember clearly anymore.

Lu Xiao was taken aback when she said this, and then he gently consoled her, "I was wrong, I indeed have been busy with a mission these past few days, and I’ve somewhat neglected you. After a couple of days, once everything is over, I will keep you company properly."

Wen Xian obediently nodded.

Yet, she didn’t ask Lu Xiao what mission he was on.

She didn’t want to ask anymore, especially after seeing the handgun on the table.

It was a police gun.

She recognized it, having learned a bit while filming before.

After the two of them had dinner, during the meal, Wen Xian felt that Lu Xiao seemed preoccupied, staying silent the whole time.

It wasn’t until they were almost done eating that he suddenly said in a deep voice, "Wen Xian, come upstairs with me. I have something to show you."

Wen Xian was startled.

What could it be?

Lu Xiao stood up, and Wen Xian followed suit. Then, the two of them walked upstairs together.

The second floor, although an attic, still had a height of two meters with a wardrobe built into it.

Following Lu Xiao upstairs, Wen Xian saw him walk directly to the side of the wardrobe and stop.

"What are we looking at...?" frёeweɓηovel_coɱ

Wen Xian was puzzled. Wasn’t this just a wardrobe?

But then, she saw Lu Xiao open the wardrobe, push the hanging clothes to one side, and reveal the back panel of the wardrobe.

As Wen Xian grew more bewildered, the next second, a stunning scene unfolded.

She saw Lu Xiao press his palm against it and slide it to the side. The wardrobe was more than met the eye; it had a divider that concealed a space behind it.

Lu Xiao shielded her view, then said earnestly:

"I know you can handle yourself well, but if there are too many people, you won’t be able to cope with them. This is a secret hiding place. If ever I am not here and someone invades, you hide inside here."

And, behind this wardrobe was a window.

"This window is for you to use to escape if you ever need to. You can get away through here. There’s a hay pile placed outside beneath it."

Listening to his words, Wen Xian felt her heart sink further and further.

Finally, Lu Xiao took a deep breath and handed her the black handgun she had seen earlier.

This here is a secret hiding place, if ever I am not here and someone invades, you hide inside here.

"This window is for you to use to escape if you ever need to. You can get away through here. There’s a hay pile placed outside beneath it."
