Keeping the promise

After Qu Yichen and Yang Wenju finished their meal, Qu Yichen looked at Yang Wenju with a smile and suggested, "Why don't we go see a movie?" Yang Wenju readily agreed, her eyes full of anticipation.

The two went to the cinema and chose a warm love movie. During the movie, Yang Wenju was sometimes amused and laughed, and sometimes her eyes were red because of the touching plot. Qu Yichen looked at her quietly, his eyes full of pampering.

After the movie, Qu Yichen and Yang Wenju walked on the bustling streets again. The shops on both sides of the street were full of dazzling goods, and the neon lights were flashing colorful lights. They walked into one small shop after another, and Qu Yichen carefully selected small gifts for Yang Wenju, each of which was full of his thoughts.

Unconsciously, they came to a quiet lake. The lake water was shimmering silvery in the moonlight, and the breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness.

Qu Yichen stopped, turned around and faced Yang Wenju. The smile on his face gradually disappeared and his expression became somewhat solemn.

Yang Wenju noticed his strangeness, and felt a little uneasy. She asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Qu Yichen took a deep breath and spoke slowly: "Wenju, there is something I want to tell you. I have to go on a mission and will leave tomorrow."

Yang Wenju's face turned pale instantly, and her voice trembled: "So sudden? Is this mission dangerous?"

Qu Yichen gently held her hand and comforted her: "Don't worry, I will be careful. It's just that I can't be with you during this period of time, you have to take good care of yourself."

Yang Wenju's eyes suddenly turned red, tears welling up in her eyes: "You must come back safely, I will wait for you."

Qu Yichen held her in his arms, his voice low and firm: "I promise you, I will come back safely."

The two of them hugged each other by the lake for a long time. The moonlight shone on them, as if covering them with a veil.

After releasing his embrace, Qu Yichen looked into Yang Wenju's eyes and said, "If you encounter any difficulties during this period, go find Zheng Wancheng and the others. They will take care of you."

Yang Wenju bit her lip, trying hard not to let the tears fall: "I know, you can go without worrying about me."

Qu Yichen raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Silly girl, how could I not worry about you. But this is my duty, I have to go."

Yang Wenju nodded heavily: "I understand, I support you."

Qu Yichen hugged her tightly in his arms again and whispered in her ear: "Wait for me to come back."

Qu Yichen sent Yang Wenju downstairs of the hotel. The dim street lights lengthened their figures. Yang Wenju turned around, her eyes full of reluctance and worry.

"Go up quickly and have a good rest." Qu Yichen said gently, his eyes full of affection.

Yang Wenju nodded gently and walked into the corridor, looking back every few steps. Qu Yichen stood there, watching her back disappear around the corner of the stairs.

When he could no longer see Yang Wenju, Qu Yichen's face showed a trace of solemnity and worry. He thought of this mission and couldn't help but feel a surge of regret in his heart.

This time he is going to be an undercover agent, going deep into a large and brutal drug trafficking group, trying to catch them all in one fell swoop. This mission is extremely dangerous, full of unknowns and variables.

He didn't know what kind of dangerous situation he would face, nor did he know whether he could complete the mission alive and return. When he thought of this, he regretted telling Yang Wenju to wait.

"How can I be so selfish and let her wait with hope? Maybe this will be a wait with no end." Qu Yichen murmured to himself with a frown.

The night wind blew, and he felt a little chill, not only physically, but also in his heart. He knew very well how cunning and cruel this drug gang was. They had a tight organization and powerful firepower, and many previous campaigns had failed to completely eradicate them.

This time, as an undercover agent, he has to go deep into the tiger's den alone to obtain key intelligence and cooperate with the police's actions. Once his identity is exposed, the consequences will be disastrous.

Qu Yichen looked up at the stars in the sky and prayed silently in his heart: I hope I won't let her down.

He stood downstairs for a long time, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. Recalling every little detail since he met Yang Wenju, those beautiful moments kept emerging in his mind.

Her smile, her tenderness, and her concern have become his most precious memories at this moment.

But for the peace of more people, Qu Yichen had to go.

Finally, he took a deep breath and turned away. The moonlight shone on him, and his back looked lonely and resolute. He then edited a message for Zheng Wancheng and headed for the unknown and dangerous journey.
