After a moment's thought, Zhou Dafu and Zhou Wufu realized that Xingxing was going back to the palace.
Only Zhou Erfu and Zhou Sifu were focused solely on rescuing people. They volunteered, saying, "If you're going to rescue someone, take us with you. We're strong and can help. We've improved a lot by learning kung fu from our masters recently."
Xingxing slammed her hand on the table and announced, "If we're going to leave, we'll leave together. Dad, Mom, and my brothers will come too. I'm going to miss you all. Our family will always be together."
"Having our daughter is enough," Zhou Laoda and Zhao Guihua said, their eyes welling up with tears. "Silly girl, you are a princess. We are destined not to be together forever. We should be content if we can see each other occasionally in the future."
“Xingxing, your parents are also reluctant to let you go, but you are going to rescue people. If your parents go with you, we will only be a hindrance, and we might even be captured and taken hostage. We don’t know kung fu, so we can’t help you at all. Be good, your parents can’t go with you.” Zhao Guihua said, wiping her eyes and choking back tears.
Seeing Xingxing's big, wet eyes, as if she was about to cry, Zhao Guihua felt a pang of heartache. She quickly hugged her and gently comforted her, "The capital is too far away. When your parents fled from the north during the famine, their health was severely damaged. If we rush to the capital in the cold winter, they'll surely fall seriously ill."
So you guys go first this time. Once we've rescued the people and settled down, we can go later when the weather gets warmer. If you feel too lonely going alone, your brothers can go with you.
"But even my brothers are gone, what will you and Dad do? What will you do when you miss us?" Xingxing cried uncontrollably, her tears flowing freely.
The brothers were also in a dilemma. On one side were their parents, and on the other side was their younger sister. Should they choose to stay with their parents or escort their sister to the capital?
"Why do you all act like it's a matter of life and death? With us protecting you, you'll definitely get through this safely. Once we reach the capital, we'll have ways to deal with any difficulties and resolve any dangers. Don't you all trust our abilities?" Zhu Qiuyu was getting a headache from their crying and quickly spoke up to comfort them.
"There are three female guards at home, so no matter who stays at home or goes on a long trip, nothing will happen to them, so there's nothing to worry about."
Zhou Laoda and Zhao Guihua weren't too worried about the journey, since they had high hopes for the abilities of the people from Xianwu Island. The reason they were sad was that they might not see the stars again in the future. How could they not be sad about the sudden separation?
However, neither Zhou Laoda nor Zhao Guihua said this aloud.
The trip to Beijing was settled, but Zhou Laoda and his wife had a lot of things to prepare, so it had to be postponed for a few days. Thinking that they might not see each other again, Zhou Laoda and Zhao Guihua wished they could pack all the good things for Xingxing.
