Zhou Cheng.
This is Cheng Xianyi, the man she loves to the core.
At that moment, Ziyan suddenly understood why Cheng Xianyi, who didn't even think much of the Crown Prince of Yan, was so devoted to Zhou Cheng.
Perhaps the master's judgment is correct.
Young Master Zhou is indeed one of a kind in the world.
"Hahaha!! They got away, they got away!"
"The grenade that the young master just threw was truly terrifying. With a loud bang, all those people from the imperial court were blown to bits like dumplings being dropped into a pot."
"If you ask me, that traitor Wei is the real character. He somehow came up with this terrible idea and actually made a half-inch iron shield that weighs tens or even hundreds of pounds, hoping to use it to block deadly weapons."
"You didn't see the look on Wei Ze's face, his eyes were practically popping out of their sockets! Hahaha, so satisfying! So satisfying! I've never won such an easy victory before!"
The archers, watching the fleeing imperial soldiers, gripped their rifles tightly with excitement.
Laughter echoed throughout the entire valley.
It was at this moment that Zhou Cheng glanced around and suddenly caught sight of Zi Yan, who was standing there in a daze.
Noticing Zhou Cheng's gaze, Zi Yan quickly composed herself, dismounted, and recounted the scene in Jiangling City to Zhou Cheng: "Young Master Zhou, I have finally caught up with you."
Zhou Cheng looked down at Zi Yan indifferently: "What's wrong?"
"Miss, Miss is dying!"
Zhou Cheng: "?"
What kind of rabid and frightening words are these? They're quite scary.
"After you left Jiangling City, Miss went to the city wall alone. The wind on the city wall was bitterly cold, and at night it could freeze a person into an ice block. Miss stood there for a while, and her eyelashes were covered with frost."
Zhou Cheng: "?"
The archers' laughter stopped, and the atmosphere gradually froze.
"What was she doing standing on the city wall of Jiangling?"
Ziyan replied with a bitter expression, speaking with utmost sincerity: "Both Grand Tutor Cheng and I tried to persuade her, but Miss simply wouldn't listen to us. She said that's the closest place to the young master."
“You told her not to leave Jiangling City, but she didn’t. You told her to wait patiently, and she did.”
“She is waiting for you in the city until the day you return. Grand Tutor Cheng was afraid that Miss would stand on the city wall for half a month, so he told me to hurry up and ride a fast horse to find you.”
"........"
"Young Master Zhou, what should we do now?"
Zhou Cheng: "!!!"
Zhou Cheng immediately pictured Cheng Xianyi standing alone on the city wall, staring longingly and hopefully at the official road, hoping he could return soon...
Just thinking about it makes me feel sorry for them.
I originally intended to let her stay in Jiangling City to recuperate for the sake of her health.
Now it seems—
It's unclear whether leaving the city will cause illness, but staying in Jiangling City will definitely lead to illness.
"Young master... perhaps you should bring Miss Cheng along?"
"When you left the city, she kept staring at your back, and her eyes looked so pitiful."
“I also think that Miss Cheng is so obedient, she certainly won’t distract the young master.”
The archers all said with pity.
Ziyan wiped her sweat and looked at Zhou Cheng expectantly, waiting for him to speak.
Zhou Cheng immediately turned his horse around, facing the direction of Jiangling City, and said a sentence to Black Rat and the others before heading into the city: "Black Rat, you guys clean up the mess here, I'm going back to the city."
On the way back to the city,
Zhou Cheng sighed and felt annoyed.
After the system assessed Cheng Xianyi's terrifying level of affection, Zhou Cheng knew that the depth of Cheng Xianyi's love for him was beyond words.
He thought that it was only half a month, and that half a month shouldn't matter.
To his utter surprise, Cheng Xianyi listened to him while stubbornly doing what she thought was right, and just to be closer to him, she foolishly stood on the city wall waiting for him to return.
