In the master bedroom of Li's house, candlelight flickered.
Li Nian had just finished taking a shower and returned to the room when she saw Xiao Yunyu in his nightgown blinking at her with his peach blossom eyes.
She paused wiping her wet hair, her eyes alert: "What are you doing in my room?"
Xiao Yunyu stood up from the wooden chair. The tall man walked towards her with his brows lowered, and his low voice was filled with reluctance.
Said: "Tomorrow I will go to the front camp to prepare for battle."
Li Nian was startled when he heard this, staring at him blankly and asked, "So sudden?"
"It's not too sudden."
Xiao Yunyu naturally took the dry handkerchief from her hand and gently wiped her hair while explaining, "We've been keeping an eye on them, but recently the Xiyuan Kingdom seems to have made some moves. Every winter, they take the initiative to provoke war. Winter is about to arrive, and we can't just defend without attacking."
Xiao Yunyu put his arms around her from behind, holding her in his arms, slightly bending his waist, and resting his chin lightly on top of her head.
His deep voice was filled with worry and reluctance. "You know, the Xiyuan Kingdom is a brave and warlike nation. Although I'm very powerful, the soldiers on Wang Jiang's side simply don't obey orders. Whenever there's a battle, they hide like turtles."
"Although the Qi family army has sufficient manpower, they suffered heavy casualties after last year's battle. They have only rested for a few months and still have many disabled soldiers."
Having said this, he sighed.
His voice was filled with reluctance and grievance. "On the battlefield, life and death are unpredictable. People like Qi He who only have one leg broken are lucky. I can't bear to leave you. I'm afraid we won't have the chance to see each other again."
Li Nian was moved by what she heard. She turned around and hugged his waist back, saying softly, "No, God will protect you and turn danger into safety. You will be fine."
That’s what he said, but the plot is now completely different from the original book. In the original book, the male protagonist did not come to the border to fight, and Li Nian is not sure whether the male protagonist’s halo is still there.
Feeling the person in his arms holding him tighter, Xiao Yunyu continued and whispered, "I hope so... Can I sleep with Nian Nian tonight?"
