Shang Huai pursed his lips, clearly not expecting this.

Pei Zhi decided to return to Beijing in just one afternoon?

What happened between Pei Zhi and Xiao Chengci that afternoon?

Why did Pei Zhi suddenly make up her mind to return to the capital?

Shang Huai stared at Pei Zhi: "Then will you come back?"

Pei Zhi asked, "If I don't come back, can't you come to find me?"

Pei Zhi's words put Shang Huai at ease.

"Of course I'll go."

"Even if I break my leg, I will crawl to find you."

Shang Huai has a face that doesn't know how to say sweet words.

But the words he said made Pei Zhi very happy.

After having dinner, Xiao Chengci didn't linger. He greeted Pei Zhi and left, surrounded by guards.

During the day, the servants had already brought Pei Minxue's luggage over.

Pei Minxue chatted with Pei Zhi for a while; Pei Minxue was a perceptive person.

To avoid being secretly killed by Shang Huai in the middle of the night.

Therefore, Pei Minxue said that he had been busy all day and needed to go back to write a letter home, so he would go home first.

"Want to come to my study for a game of handball?"

"Are you playing chess?"

"Um."

Shang Huai also took some time today to ask the doctor how to help Pei Zhi remember her condition.

The doctor said, not necessarily.

But you can take Pei Zhiduo to experience it, and talk about what happened before.

Now that night is falling, it's definitely not an option to take Pei Zhi out hunting or for some fresh air.

Shang Huai had also learned to play chess, but as a child, he was always restless and unsettled.

In terms of chess skills, Shang Huai was not considered an expert.

However, Pei Zhi has lost her memory now, so their differences probably aren't that great.

Shang Huai was even very modest, letting Pei Zhi take the black piece.

Pei Zhi did not refuse. She took the chess piece, rubbed it in her hand, and then began to place it.

At the beginning, Shang Huai made his moves very quickly.

As he walked, Shang Huai's brows began to furrow.

After that, with each step Shang Huai took, he observed Pei Zhi's expression.

Pei Zhi's expression was utterly calm.

Even Shang Huai couldn't tell where Pei Zhi planned to go next.

Did he fall into Pei Zhi's trap?

After playing for a while, Pei Zhi suddenly threw the black piece in her hand into the chess box.

"You lost."

"Hmm?" Shang Huai looked at the chessboard, where the situation seemed evenly matched.

Even if he is at a disadvantage, it should still be a 40/60 split. It's not time to admit defeat yet, is it?

Upon hearing this, Pei Zhi had no choice but to take out a chess piece and make a move.

With this move, Shang Huai's white pieces suffered a significant loss.

Shang Huai sighed in defeat. "Fine, I admit defeat."

Pei Zhi asked curiously, "Why do you want to play chess with me?"

Pei Zhi didn't understand: "You're my fiancé, shouldn't you be showing me your strengths?"

Pei Zhi's words made Shang Huai feel somewhat ashamed.

After a long pause, Shang Huai finally managed to say, "I...I made a mistake."

Pei Zhi tentatively suggested, "Shall we do it again?"

Shang Huai shook his head vigorously, "No need, no need."

"The moonlight is just right outside, shall we go for a walk in the garden?"

Pei Zhi agreed: "Okay."

Shang Huai cleared a space in the garden.

Every morning, Shang Huai exercises in the garden.

There were also quite a few weapons standing upright in the corridor to the side.

"I ate a bit too much for dinner, how about I dance a little for you?"

Shang Huai brought Pei Zhi here with his own ulterior motives.

Shang Huai was simply recalling what Pei Zhi had said.

Yes, he wanted to show Pei Zhi his strengths.

"OK."

Pei Zhi glanced at it, then walked to the side corridor and sat down.

Shang Huai picked up a gun, lifted it with one hand, weighed it in his hand for a couple of moments, and then casually brandished it a couple of times.

Shang Huai took off his long robe, leaving only his white undergarment underneath.

Upon seeing this, Pei Zhi's eyes lit up for no apparent reason.

Pei Zhi knew that Shang Huai was a military general.

But when Shang Huai picked up the gun, he became quite spirited and confident.

Pei Zhi propped her chin up with one hand, her eyes fixed on Shang Huai's every move, not even daring to blink.

I have to say, she had a really good eye for talent.

Putting aside their identities, both of them are exceptionally good-looking.

That's normal, though; she's beautiful, so her taste is bound to be good.

Shang Huai was looking forward to a chance to make a good impression on Pei Zhi.

The weapons in his hands had been changed several times, and even with Shang Huai's good stamina, he was covered in sweat after such a long period of exercise.

Not only was his face sweaty, but his clothes were also soaked with sweat.

Pei Zhi got up and came to Shang Huai. She was about to take a handkerchief to wipe Shang Huai's sweat.

Seeing this, Shang Huai took two steps back. "I'm sweating a lot. Be careful not to offend your breath."

Pei Zhirou replied, "It's nothing."

As soon as Pei Zhi finished speaking, she stood on tiptoe and wiped Shang Huai's sweat.

Pei Zhi appeared to be wiping Shang Huai's sweat, but in reality, she was lowering her eyes to examine Shang Huai's physique.

During the day, Shang Huai was dressed, so Pei Zhi didn't really notice.

Shang Huai's clothes were now soaked with sweat, revealing his good physique.

Shang Huai was unaware that Pei Zhi's gaze lingered on him.

Shang Huai could only sense that Pei Zhi's movements were a bit too long when she wiped his sweat.

Shang Huai was worried that if he sweated, he would smell bad and Pei Zhi would feel uncomfortable.
