“Thanks.” An Yan thanked Leo.

Leo was a little flattered, but after all, he knew that An Yan was not an ordinary soldier and did not need to be so polite to him.

“It’s okay. I just did it in passing.”

Were all the soldiers in Country H so polite? Leo suddenly became curious. Just now when Yan Chengyu asked him to bring the sunscreen to An Yan, he was also polite enough to ask him.

“Are you still angry with your husband?”

It was probably because An Yan gave Leo a good feeling to get along with him that he suddenly struck up a conversation with An Yan, but the question he asked made it a topic that had previously made An Yan’s veins flare up.

But at this point, An Yan was not as angry as he had been at first, and he lowered his eyes before explaining, “I’m not in that kind of relationship with him.”

“Geez. At a time like this, you don’t have to hide it. Marriage of the same sex in our country is allowed, so it’s okay for you to say it. We’re used to it here.”

When Leo said that, An Yan remembered that Country C and Country Z were originally one country before they separated to make one of them a vassal state.

So… that was how it was! It was no wonder that the Lady of Country C was a man.

‘No, why should I agree with what Leo said?’

It was then that An Yan realised that he had been inattentively led astray by Leo.

“As I said, I’m not in that kind of relationship with Yan Chengyu. It’s not a matter of you accepting it or not.” Suddenly, there was some irritation in his words.

‘Who would be with a brat like that? He had a bad attitude and a bad temper!’

“Okay, fine!” Leo, who was refuted, meekly shut up, after which he gave his soldiers a wink and they left.

“Then you have a good rest! I’ll leave you to it.” He hurried up and left.

An Yan, who had taken it out on Leo, was also very annoyed. He did not want to be angry with Leo, but in the end, he could not help it.

“Damn it! It’s that boy’s fault! Or how would I have lost my temper like that?” All the fault was blamed on Yan Chengyu.

But at the end of the day, An Yan couldn’t stop staring at the sunscreen on his hand, and he probably didn’t even notice that the corners of his mouth were slightly curled up.

“Forget it, go to sleep! I don’t want to think about that boy. I’ve got a busy day tomorrow.”

He went into the tent to lie down.

After about ten minutes or so, just as An Yan was drifting off to sleep, the familiar sound of footsteps slowly sounded outside the tent.

An Yan immediately woke up, recognising it as Yan Chengyu’s footsteps.

‘Isn’t he standing guard at the Colonel’s side? Why has he suddenly returned? To get something here?’

Curious, but An Yan didn’t dare to get up, not knowing what he was going to say to Yan Chengyu after seeing his face. Somehow, his heart also suddenly pounded and he got nervous.

‘Really, what am I doing? It’s not me who is at fault, is it?’

He was convincing himself again, but as the footsteps stepped inside the tent, he had more trouble settling down.

Yan Chengyu had come to see if An Yan had slept or if he had forgotten to cover himself with a quilt. As there was a big difference in temperature between day and night in the desert, he was afraid An Yan would catch a cold.

The hotter it was during the day, the colder it was at night.

There were no lights on the border, so Yan Chengyu could only tell if An Yan was asleep through the bright moonlight outside.

There was no movement, so he must have fallen asleep!

Yan Chengyu breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he also scratched his head in annoyance. ‘How could I have failed to control my anger that time?’

Every time he thought about his anger at An Yan, Yan Chengyu felt a pang of remorse, but that had already happened; regret would not help him reverse the time.
