Shang Gu Yi’s soldiers were all comrades who fought desperately on the Feng Hua battlefield. Upon hearing Shang Gu Yi’s mission to find Yun Yihen, the soldiers volunteered to join. Shang Gu Yi selected the most outstanding soldiers to form a temporary search team, while the remaining soldiers were left in the camp to recover.
“Thank you, sir, for saving our general’s life.” Shang Gu Yi hadn’t recognized that the person dressed as a male was Ling Zhou and was instead very…
“Be polite to her.”
“Uh…!” She bitterly smiled at Shang Gu Yi’s 90-degree bow. Were these ancient people too narrow-minded? Just because someone wore women’s clothes, did that mean they must be a woman? Just because someone wore men’s clothes, did that mean they must be a man?
“A Shang, she is Xia Ling Zhou, the one you rescued on the battlefield a month ago.” Several soldiers lifted him off Ling Zhou’s shoulder, allowing her to escape from his weight, which felt heavier than that of a pig.
“Her?” Shang Gu Yi carefully examined Ling Zhou, his gaze finally settling on her face.
“What are you looking at? Staring at someone for so long is impolite.” Feeling uncomfortable being scrutinized, Ling Zhou rolled her eyes and looked down at Shang Gu Yi.
“General…” he suddenly turned back and whispered in Yun Yihen’s ear, “Isn’t Xia Ling Zhou…
It seems he is not a spy for Ye Yao, but his identity is quite suspicious. I will keep her.” Yun Yihen’s face showed a rare seriousness.
“But…”
“Hey, what are you two big men whispering about? Are you talking bad about me?” She waved her hand, exasperated with these two men. “Since someone is here to pick you up, I’ll take my leave.”
Finishing her sentence, Ling Zhou wanted to slip away quickly. It was best to leave now while there were many people around; otherwise, if he started discussing marriage, she would be the one embarrassed.
“Miss Xia, please wait. Since you saved our general, we naturally want to express our gratitude. Would you care to visit the general’s residence?” Shang Gu Yi quickly stepped forward to block the escaping Ling Zhou, offering a polite invitation.
