Chapter 176 I Wish I Were Dead
Although Bai Yu'an did not look as tall and mighty as Bai Yunfeng, he was also incredibly strong. He actually carried Yang Heng on his back in one go and walked away slowly.
"Second brother is so awesome!" Little Dumpling couldn't help but clap his hands.
She once carried Li Changan, who was twice her size, on her back, but she couldn't stand up at all and could only crawl on the ground, so she knew better than anyone how difficult it was.
Bai Yunfeng chuckled and said meaningfully, "In fact, from the beginning, your second brother's goal was to inherit my position."
At the beginning, Bai Qing'an chose the path of a civil official, so Bai Yunfeng's path as a military officer naturally fell on Bai Yu'an. Therefore, Bai Yu'an actually went to the battlefield very early and has always performed very well.
Thinking of something, Bai Yunfeng glanced at Bai Shian and said, "Back then, your second brother's spear skills were no worse than yours."
"Really?" Bai Shi'an was obviously surprised. As far as he could remember, he had never seen Bai Yu'an touch a gun.
Bai Yunfeng nodded, "But later... he gave up the path of a military officer and chose to become a military doctor."
"Did something happen?" Little Dumpling tilted his head and asked curiously.
"Is that so?" Bai Yunfeng sighed, but as a careless father, he couldn't be sure what it was about.
"Alright," Little Dumpling managed to catch up with the main group, which really made him breathe a sigh of relief. "Come on, tell Dad how you guys caught up with us these past few days."
"We want to listen too." Bai Shi'an pulled You Zhu and quickly followed.
The group went to the camp at Baiyun Peak together.

Bai Yu'an carried Yang Heng on his back to his tent. Halfway there, he was already sweating profusely and breathing heavily.
"Second Young Master, please put me down. I can walk by myself." Yang Heng couldn't help but beg. After all, the other party was the son of the general. What qualifications did he have?
"It's okay, I can still hold on." Bai Yu'an said in a deep voice, feeling somewhat guilty. "If it weren't for me... letting you stay with Li Suining for one more day, you wouldn't have been bitten by the snake."
"Second Young Master, this isn't your fault. In fact, it's my own fault," the bearded man sighed. "If I had listened to Miss Sui Ning at the time, this wouldn't have happened. In fact, we could have caught up with you yesterday."
Bai Yu'an frowned and said nothing. He noticed that the bearded man's tone when he mentioned Li Suining this time was obviously different from before.
Soon, the two arrived at the tent. Bai Yu'an put the person down, took the medicine box, and began to check Yang Heng.
"Second Young Master," Yang Heng couldn't help but say apologetically, "I'm sorry."
"It's nothing, you don't need to apologize." Bai Yu'an looked calm as he carefully treated Yang Heng's wound. "Qingyun is a master, and Li Suining is a little fox. You are definitely no match for them."
"Second Young Master, you misunderstood." Yang Heng sighed, "I apologize to you, not because I didn't send them away, but..."
He looked at Bai Yu'an with even more apology, and after a pause, he continued, "But I think... maybe we were wrong. We shouldn't have sent that dumpling back."
"What are you talking about?" Bai Yu'an's expression changed. "You were also bribed by that dumpling?"
"No, no." The bearded man quickly shook his head and said hesitantly, "Actually, it can be considered as such, but it's not the silver or other benefits that the Second Young Master wants. I am..."
Apparently remembering something, the bearded man's ferocious expression softened a bit, and even his tone changed. "Second Young Master, if it weren't for Miss Sui Ning, I would have died long ago. Even if I hadn't died, it would have taken me a long time to catch up with the main force."
Bai Yu'an frowned in confusion, "What on earth could a four-year-old do to make you think this way?"
"Our Miss Sui Ning is not an ordinary child." Yang Heng looked at Bai Yu'an with bright eyes, "You know what? The way you carried me just now was exactly the same as that child."
Bai Yu'an was so angry that he almost laughed, "Are you crazy? You mean... Tuanzi carried you on his back?"
"No, but..." Yang Heng's eyes were a little moist, "You know what? My leg was injured and I couldn't climb the mountain. I lied to them and said I couldn't ride a horse..."
Bai Yu'an's frown deepened. "Then how did you catch up?"
"Because there is a bridge, or to be exact, a bridge that only allows two people to pass through." Yang Heng's expression became more and more excited.
Bai Yu'an knew this bridge. On the way here, in order to get rid of them faster, he went to the towns along the way to ask if there was a shortcut.
At that time, a fellow villager said that there was indeed a bridge, but it could only accommodate two adults at a time and was obviously not suitable for a large group.
I didn’t expect Yang Heng and the others to walk on that bridge.
The bearded man continued, "It was the second day after I was poisoned. I had just woken up, and half my body was numb, and I couldn't move my legs at all. As a result, they made a simple wheelchair for me, which was..."
At this point, he couldn't help but choke up a little, "It was that dumpling who pushed me across the bridge."
Bai Yu'an's expression changed slightly.
"Second Young Master, do you know how difficult it is to use this wheelchair that the town carpenter made overnight? I can barely turn its wheels myself," Yang Heng said, unable to control his emotions and began to cry softly. "I'm bigger than an average person to begin with. Apart from children, no one can cross the bridge with me..."
"Wuwuwu..." He cried even louder when he remembered the little dumpling pushing him. "Second Young Master, a four-year-old child, an age when he should be carefree and sit on the ground crying when encountering difficulties, but he pushed me step by step across the bridge..."
"Second Young Master, that bridge is only two or three hundred meters long, but it took us an entire incense stick of time to walk there." Yang Heng couldn't hold back any longer and burst into tears. "How many times... when I saw that child's look, I wished I were dead, but she kept comforting me... wuwuwu..."
Bai Yu'an frowned, "She really is good at winning people's hearts."
"Second Young Master, even if Little Tuanzi did this on purpose to win people's hearts, I will accept it. I am willing to be bought by her." Yang Heng wiped his tears, looking determined.
He wanted to persuade Bai Yu'an, "Second Young Master, think about it, maybe a four-year-old child really can't help much, but we can't deny that without her, we wouldn't have been able to catch up in time, so, could it be that we are wrong?"
"Maybe on the battlefield, she... can really be of some help?" he said tentatively.
"Okay, you don't have to persuade me. At this point, I can't drive her away, but," Bai Yu'an's attitude did not seem to waver, "but I still think this is a wrong decision."
Yang Heng opened his mouth, but in the end said nothing.
He knew that Bai Yu'an was a good boy, and he believed that one day Bai Yu'an would accept Li Suining.
Because that dumpling is worth it.
