Chapter 409 I am your sister from now on

This child is seriously lacking in love. As a team leader, she tried her best to teach every team member. Unexpectedly, this ordinary action would make him have other thoughts.

Bai Li really wanted to say, kid, you think too much!

This is too hurtful and should definitely not be said.

"...I know, I've always been self-righteous and overthinking."

"But I just can't help missing you. Knowing you're in danger, I'm more anxious than anyone else.

It was your first time going to Simon and we didn’t know anything about you and were worried about you.

I practiced martial arts day and night like crazy. At that time, I had only one thought in my mind: only when I became strong could I be able to protect you."

"When you disappeared, I was even more worried about you than Nangong Min. I searched day and night for you in every place near the capital, including mountains, rivers, pavilions, temples, and everything I could think of.

After three days and three nights without food or water, he finally collapsed to the ground and lost consciousness..."

"I'm sorry, I don't know that."

At this moment, Bai Li didn't know what else to do except to feel guilty and apologize.

Maybe Luo Yang did a lot for her, but unfortunately she couldn't respond at all.

"No, no, you don't have to say sorry. These are just my own affairs. They have nothing to do with you. You don't have to feel guilty."

Luo Yang let out a long sigh, "I just want someone to listen to me talk about this, and then I'll feel better!"

"Look, I'm much better now, really,"

"Finally, I wish you and Namgoong Min a long and happy life together."

"Thanks!"

Bai Li was truly grateful from the bottom of her heart. This big boy had silently done so much for her and finally sincerely wished her well. This was such a great emotional transformation and sublimation.

She saw the pain, struggle, and final relief in his eyes.

But she could do nothing but say sorry and thank you.

"Then, shall we go back?"

Bai Li asked tentatively. At this moment, she didn't know how to face him.

"Can I...can I hug you, just for a moment..."

Luo Yang finished speaking hesitantly and nervously, then looked at Bai Li nervously like a prisoner awaiting sentencing.

Bai Li thought for a moment, then stood up and gently hugged his stiff body.

The latter's body trembled, and he looked at the soft and fragrant thing in his arms in disbelief.

I stretched out my hand tremblingly, just as I was about to hug her tightly, my arms felt empty, and a wind as icy as an ice knife blew past, making my whole body shiver.

Looking at the person who had retreated a few steps away, Luo Yang smiled bitterly and retracted his hand that was awkwardly in mid-air.

"Okay, now that we've finished our personal matters, let's get back to business."

Bai Li became serious, and Luo Yang had to put away his little thoughts and bury them deep in his heart.

"You say."

"You said you were originally from the Li people?"

Luo Yang nodded and said hesitantly, "I used a false household registration to enter the barracks. If you want to punish me, then follow military regulations."

After saying this, he calmly waited for the punishment to come.

"Who wants to punish you? Although you were wrong to conceal your nationality when entering the barracks, everyone has witnessed your unwavering loyalty to the Great Zhou and your devotion to your brothers. Not to mention your numerous achievements on the battlefield, which have long since redeemed you."

"What I want to say is, now that the Li Kingdom has changed its owner, what are your plans?"

"Or, have you ever thought about returning to the family?"

"No, I'm not going back. From now on, I'll be called Luo Yang. The previous me is already dead!"

"Well, from now on, I'll let you manage the Kingdom of Li. I guarantee that your status and achievements will surpass those of your family. Can you promise me that?"

"Even if I wanted to help you, I don't have the ability to do that, right?"

Luo Yang was very grateful that Bai Li used the word "help" instead of "ordering" him.

But he knows his own worth and knows that he is not cut out to manage a country.

"Don't worry, Li will not be an independent country in the future. It and Wei will become a city-state under Ximon. We will take charge of the overall direction and development. You and Wu Lanzhi will be responsible for the execution and take care of the details."

"That's fine, I'll just listen to you."

"Then your family...if you want, I can help you take back everything that belongs to you."

"No need. I've always been a marginalized member of the family. I've been away from home for so long and no one has ever contacted me. I also thought that everyone in my family is dead. From now on, I will be an orphan Luo Yang, without any relatives!"

As he spoke, Luo Yang's tone became more angry.

"No, you still have me. From now on, I will be your biological sister and you will be my biological brother.

I'll protect you, and I'll beat anyone who bullies you until they're left with their teeth bared!"

Bai Li raised her little fist and raised her eyebrows.

Those who don’t know her may think that she looks cute and adorable, but Luo Yang knows that she is being polite!

"Okay, dear sister, I'll rely on you to protect me from now on!"

Although Luo Yang knew that this was against etiquette, he liked this way of talking to her.

"Then it's settled!"

Bai Li stretched out a hand and tilted his head towards him.

Luo Yang thought for a moment, then hesitated and reached out to touch her.

"Pah!" There was a light sound, and Bai Li laughed heartily, "Alright, I have another little brother. Wu Lanzhi will definitely be jealous when she finds out!"

Jealous?

Luo Yang pondered the word, seeming to understand it but also not understand it.

"Let's go. I can't stand you eating the lake breeze here in the middle of the night!"

Bai Li threw the cloak back to him, chuckled and ran away!

A few days later, Bai Li returned to Simon, and the wedding date for her and Nangong Min was set, which was the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, the Little New Year's Eve.

Bai Li muttered, "You're in such a hurry, you haven't prepared anything yet!"

Nangong Min looked excited, "You don't have to worry about this. Ever since we got engaged, my mother and your mother have been preparing for our wedding date. The wedding dresses and accessories are all custom-made. You can just sit back and wait to be the bride."

"My mother and your mother were already prepared? How come I didn't know anything about it?"

"Alas, you are preoccupied with the important matter of leading troops in battle. I don't need to bother you with these trivial matters!"

Bai Li's slight discomfort disappeared in less than a second. She was happy to be a hands-off boss without being asked to take charge.

It turned out that her mother knew her daughter best and had arranged everything for her early on.

Speaking of which, she missed her nagging mother and her grandmother who loved her the most.

Thinking of this, Bai Li suddenly didn't want to get married anymore.

"Nangong Min, where are we going to get married? What will happen to your family and my family after we get married?"

"What to do?"

Nangong Min really didn’t think about this and was just busy being happy!

After finally winning the war and getting the beauty, who would still want those trivial things?

However, now it is really a big problem.

"We have our own country now. How about getting married in Simon?"

Simon has a vast territory, and Bai Li has issued an edict to designate it as the capital. Wei and Li are subordinate cities, and Da Zhou is their motherland. They do not need to pay tribute, but they will always be on good terms.
