Chapter 167 You Shouldn’t Force Dad to Change His Mind

"Daddy!" Li Suining spoke first, ran to Bai Yunfeng's legs, and hugged his arm coquettishly, "Daddy, I want to go to the battlefield with you!"

Bai Yunfeng smiled helplessly, stretched out his hands and held the little girl on his knees, "Why? Our Sui Ning can't bear to leave his father?"

"Yes." The little girl nodded vigorously, her big eyes sparkling as she looked at Bai Yunfeng. "Daddy, can you take me with you? I promise to be obedient and protect myself."

Most importantly, she has to protect her father.

"Our Suining is the best, isn't she?" Bai Yunfeng was also reluctant to leave his daughter, but he couldn't let his daughter go through hardships and take risks with him. "Dad promises you that I will come back as soon as possible, okay?"

Li Suining pursed her lips instantly, and her big eyes immediately filled with tears. If she couldn't go, then her father... would never come back.

"Oh, why are you crying again?" Bai Yunfeng was instantly flustered. "Sui Ning, be good. Of course, Dad wants to be with Sui Ning every day, but we are a long way from the northern border, and Dad doesn't want you to suffer with us."

"I'm not afraid of hardship." The little girl immediately shook her head, and tears as big as beans instantly slid down her chubby cheeks. "Daddy, as long as I'm with you, I'm not afraid of anything."

Bai Yunfeng was really worried. "Sui Ning, the battlefield is very dangerous, and Dad will have to go to the battlefield to fight, and will not be able to protect you at all, Dad..."

"Dad!" Xiao Wu spoke at the right moment. "I have a subordinate who is very skilled in martial arts. He's one of the best in the entire Jin Dynasty. I can put him in charge of protecting my sister."

He had thought about it on the way here and decided to let Qingyun go with him. First, Qingyun's kung fu was indeed the best in Feiyun Sect. Second, Qingyun also liked Xiaotuanzi very much and was loyal to him. He would definitely protect his sister.

Bai Yunfeng glared at Xiao Wu helplessly, "You are also causing trouble."

"Daddy, please let me go, please, please." The little dumpling threw himself into Bai Yunfeng's arms and cried without any manner.

This was the first time she cried because her parents disagreed with her.

She quickly thought of Li Changan. She had heard that Li Changan had been exiled to the border. She wondered if it was the northern border...

She felt that she shouldn't do this, as this would make her as ignorant as Li Changan.

So she tried hard to hold back her tears, but there were still a few tears on her face, and she looked at Bai Yunfeng pitifully.

"Third Brother," Bai Yunfeng asked in a deep voice while wiping Tuanzi's tears, "Your subordinate will compete with me tomorrow. If he can defeat me, then he must...protect Sui Ning. Otherwise..."

The little girl's eyes widened nervously in an instant, and she held her breath, waiting for Bai Yunfeng to continue.

Bai Yunfeng sighed helplessly and gently pinched the little guy's nose. "You, you, Daddy really can't do anything with you. If the people on your third brother's side aren't good enough, Daddy also knows some masters in the martial arts world. Anyway, Daddy agrees to let you go."

The little girl was obviously stunned for a moment, then turned into a crybaby, throwing herself into Bai Yunfeng's arms, crying, "Daddy!"

Seeing this, the brothers looked at each other and smiled, feeling relieved.

"No!" Suddenly, a very unsociable voice sounded coldly.

Everyone immediately frowned and looked over.

Little Dumpling also looked up and timidly looked at his second brother, whose face was even uglier.

Bai Yu'an looked at Bai Yunfeng with a look of disappointment, and said, "Dad, you know how important and difficult this battle is. Can you guarantee that you won't be distracted by bringing such a burden with you?"

“…” Bai Yunfeng couldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t be distracted at all.

"Who said my sister is a burden?" The fourth brother was the first to disagree. "Second brother, one day, when you realize how powerful my sister is, you'll regret saying such a thing."

The third brother also nodded, "Second brother, I don't think my sister is a burden. Haven't you noticed that everything in the general's mansion has been getting better since my sister came here?"

"That's right, second brother, my sister is not a burden, she is... a lucky star." The fifth brother also came out to help.

Bai Yu'an frowned even deeper. He knew that these people liked Li Suining, and he would not force them to change anything. However, fighting was no joke, especially this time...

He looked at Bai Yunfeng with dissatisfaction, "Dad, how many people were killed and injured in the Bai family army last time we faced the Northern Barbarians? Do you want history to repeat itself?"

"I..." A painful expression appeared on Bai Yunfeng's face, obviously thinking of the dead and wounded soldiers.

His eyes slowly turned to the dumpling in his arms, and he was obviously starting to waver again.

"Brother, I understand what you're thinking," Bai Ruian said, fearing that Bai Yunfeng would change his mind, and quickly stepped forward. "We're just like you. We don't want Dad and the Bai family army to suffer any casualties. But just because I go with you doesn't mean there will be more casualties."

He faced Bai Yu'an's murderous eyes and shrank his neck in fear, "You shouldn't use these words to force Dad to change his mind."

Bai Yu'an gritted his teeth and said, "Bai Ruian, Second Brother has always thought you were the smartest among us brothers. Why are you... following Fourth Brother's lead in being foolish now?"

Little Tuanzi curled up quietly in Bai Yunfeng's arms. She understood a truth at this moment. In fact, in the eyes of her second brother, she, her third brother and her sixth brother were always outsiders. Her second brother never cared about their thoughts.

Why...even if the second brother is unwilling to accept her, what about the third brother and the sixth brother?

"Second brother, please trust us this time." Bai Shi'an said earnestly.

"Bai Yu'an, you stay stuck in your yard every day, knowing nothing and caring about nothing," You Zhu, who had been silent the entire time, spoke up angrily, "You have no right to force anyone to make a decision."

"Sixth Brother!" Bai Yunfeng shook his head at You Zhu. He knew his second son's worries and also knew that he shouldn't take the little girl with him.

His agreement was completely irrational and out of softness of heart.

"I don't care." You Zhu said in a domineering tone, "I will definitely go on this expedition. If you agree, I will go with you. If you don't agree, I will go secretly by myself. Anyway, no one can stop me."

"Xiao Liu, you..." Bai Yunfeng was so anxious that he was speechless for a moment.

"Dad, Fourth and Fifth Brothers, did you see that? In the General's Mansion, what is the most important thing for the Bai Family Army? Military orders are as heavy as a mountain!"

Bai Yu'an looked at Li Suining and You Zhu with increasing displeasure, "What happened? These two outsiders completely ignored my words. Even so, you guys don't care?"

He spoke in an unwavering tone, "In short, I don't agree with You Zhu and Li Suining going. If Dad insists on going and makes the soldiers feel cold, I will not forgive Dad! And I will not forgive them either!"
