Chapter 1653 - Is the Sunset in the Desert Kingdom Beautiful? (1/2)
In Xu Zhenyu’s heart, there was indeed something that did not feel good, but even if he lost, he could not lose in front of Ninth Si, he could not show any weakness.
Moreover, this was exactly the case.
This mission was very important. Even the military ministries of several countries had an unusual headache about it. They came to the east, and both the military ministries and the joint headquarters provided them with very little mission information. The task difficulty had increased tremendously, reaching the SS level.
The joining of Ninth Si did provide them with a lot of help and convenience.
From the standpoint of the country, the nation, and the task itself, Ninth Si’s intervention was indeed the best result. From a private standpoint, Wen Xinya was worried about him and thus let Ninth Si step in this task for him. There was indeed no loss for him.
Si Yiyan looked at him quietly for a while. “You’re right!”
Under the dim light, his pale face was covered by the mist, full of unknown danger and mystery.
It was him who was restless and worried.
Otherwise, he would not appear in the east.
Xu Zhenyu laughed loudly. “So, I’m ready to take advantage of the situation anytime, anywhere, and snatch Wen Xinya from you.”
After speaking, he went to the next room while biting his cigarette butt.
It was not difficult to see that he was proud of this moment.
Si Yiyan looked indifferent and slowly walked out of the basement. The dilapidated building and gray concrete wall were unfurnished. He dialed Wen Xinya’s number.
“What are you doing?” Counting the days, he had been to the east for more than a month. Ever since he got together with Wen Xinya, he had never been separated from her for such a long time.
The two people were so far apart, across countries, across oceans, across deserts.
“Thinking of what you might be doing now!” Wen Xinya’s eyes fell onto the desk with cluttered materials—the learning materials for jewelry design compiled by Ji Shihan for her.
However, she did not have the heart to learn.
As long as she was quiet, she could not help thinking, what was Si Yiyan doing now? Was he safe? Had he been injured?
“I’m watching the sunset.” Si Yiyan crossed through a window punched out of the cement gray wall, and the sunlight at dusk enthusiastically shone in on him with a sense of solemnity and sacredness.
In this desert country, even in the city, there were no high-rise buildings. Standing at a high place, you could see all the low-rise buildings with characteristics of the desert country, as well as the high and wide sky.
“Is the sunset in a desert country beautiful?”
Wen Xinya suddenly thought of how she and Si Yiyan had been together for so long. Yet, they had never seen the sunrise and sunset together. She couldn’t help feeling regretful and sad.
A couple who did not watch the sunrise and sunset together could not really be called a couple at all.
“It’s very beautiful. The desert in the distance is plated with a layer of golden splendor, countless sand and stones, wrinkles and undulations, high and low sand waves that extend to the horizon, just like waves rising above the ocean.
“The sand dunes in the desert have distinct layers, the ridges of the hills are smooth. Above the tops of the sandy mountains, the sunrise in the desert is magnificent, and the sunset is stained with sand, like a burning flame.”
Si Yiyan described the desert country to her, the most prestigious sunset. Her eyes penetrated the sunlight at dusk, looking far into the distance. The ink stained her eyes, reflecting the desert country, the raging sun, a magnificent and gorgeous sight.
“The Creator is fair. Although he did not give a beautiful landscape to the desert country, he gave them a warm and spectacular sunset.”
Wen Xinya took out color pencils and drawing paper, imagining the picture described by Si Yiyan, and on the painting paper, she painted the most beautiful desert sunset she could imagine.
