Lu Xingjian asked, "Awake? Come and have some dinner."

Having slept all day, Su Wanwan was indeed woken up by hunger, and she didn't hold back.

The table in the next room was already full of dishes, with plates on top and a fire burning underneath to keep them warm.

I don't know how long it's been there.

"I should go back after I finish my meal." Su Wanwan thought that her father and Wanying must be very anxious waiting at home.

Lu Xingjian's eyes were gentle: "I've already sent someone to inform your family. It's dark and the roads are slippery, so just stay here and we'll set off back to the capital early tomorrow morning."

Su Wanwan paused slightly in her chopsticks.

She had no objection to returning to Beijing.

Every day Lu Xingjian stays here increases the danger.

She didn't want to affect his schedule because of herself.

Besides, she used herself as bait to capture the prince of the Northern Yuan Khan; it's no wonder the Tatars wouldn't let her off the hook.

It would be best to leave here as soon as possible.

However, living here... is not quite right.

She was so tired during the day and worried that they might ask her questions at any time, so she took a nap here. She didn't expect to sleep until this time.

Lu Xingjian didn't give her a chance to refuse, and said again:

"As for Xiao Bin, it's not good to openly reward him this time, lest we alert him. We'll find an opportunity to promote them later."

Su Wanwan's gaze softened slightly as she glanced at him.

"Um."

Openly bestowing rewards for fear of revealing their identities and incurring retaliation from the Tatars was indeed a prudent approach.

Just two days ago, he shot an arrow at Xiao Bin, but today he's promoting Xiao Bin. That's quite a change.

Lu Xingjian, on the other hand, remained calm, revealing no emotion.

After finishing her meal, Su Wanwan decided to go home.

Just as she was about to get up and say goodbye, Lu Xingjian grabbed her waist and pulled her into his arms.

The moment their bodies touched, her heart rate reached its peak.

If something were to happen between the two of them, it would be completely beyond her control.

What alarmed her most was that her body craved his presence.

She longed for him.

They were so harmonious in that respect.

"Where are you going?" The man's eyes held a dangerous glint.
