Chu Li had the illusion that he was standing in a thick fog and couldn't tell whether he was real or fake, happy or angry.
But his words, word by word, brought her back to reality:
"Do you think I'll be angry?"
"Won't."
"People only panic and worry when they are faced with things that are beyond their control. There is no one in this world who can make me feel like I am facing a formidable enemy."
Just a Young Master Lan Yuan.
Do you think he would care?
Chu Li bit her lower lip lightly: "Uncle, you have become different from before, but I have always looked at you with the same eyes as before..."
His generosity and tolerance made her feel a little ashamed.
She is just being mean.
"After experiencing life and death, people will naturally become different. Now I only hope that you can live well, even if you are not by my side."
Chu Dichi's fingertips gently touched her cheek, his eyes filled with too many complex emotions to conceal:
"You must live well."
"Don't worry about your mother and Prince Xian. I will take good care of them and write to you every month to let you know how they are doing."
Chu Li looked anxious:
"I'm going back to the capital too!"
What's the big deal about writing a letter?
It's not like she's really dead.
She chose to hide in Jiangnan because she was afraid of him. Now that she is no longer afraid and he has changed his temper, she doesn't want to hide anymore.
Chu Dichi suppressed the joy on his face and said calmly, "You want to go back to the capital?"
"Even if it's not for my mother and my eighth brother, I have to consider Chu Hongyan. He is still so young and loves to stick to me."
Chu Dichi didn't expect that Chu Hongyan could have this function.
"Then you want to go back to the capital...Xiaojiu, are you agreeing to my request? Do you agree to be with me?"
Chu Li bit his lower lip and looked around with a shy face.
This is the street, and there are so many people here.
"If you have anything to say, tell me when you get back."
"Tell me now." Chu Dichi held her wrist, "Tell me, Xiaojiu, you agree."
Looking at the man's burning gaze, it was like a charcoal grill, trying to melt her and make her mouth dry:
“I… um…”
He mumbled a few words in a low voice: "Hmm..."
The joy in the man's eyes was like a fierce wave, and he hugged her tightly into his arms, "You said it yourself, you promised it yourself!"
No regrets allowed.
From now on, in his dictionary, there is no betrayal, no divorce, no separation, only widowhood.
Chu Li closed her eyes and smelled the ebony incense in his chest, an extremely familiar scent. She used to be terrified, but now she feels at peace.
The enlightened emperor's uncle is still a good person.
That's it.
In this long life, with its ups and downs and twists and turns, you always need someone to accompany you.
After all, humans are social animals.
She still has so many family members and close friends.
Chu Dichi hugged her tightly, smelling the faint fragrance from her hair. The smile on his face reached its peak and gradually deepened.
More and more profound: "I won't let you regret your choice today."
From now on, she was the center of his authority.
Holding the sweet and soft girl in my arms, the longing that had been pent up for days finally burst out.
If he doesn't vent, he'll get sick.
"You don't know how much I miss you."
She could never imagine it.
Chu Li looked up at him, "We...seem to have only not seen each other for a month?"
"A lot of things happened in this month, with ups and downs. It felt like ten years had passed. It also made me realize my own feelings."
"I'll let you know."
Chu Dichi's eyes were deep and unfathomable, "I'll take you to visit General Xie."
"Now?"
"Well, let's go now without further ado. If you want to go back to the imperial capital, you need to borrow the identity of General Xie's daughter. We should go to him as soon as possible to go through the formalities."
Chu Li looked at his arm worriedly, "But your injury hasn't healed yet, you shouldn't travel that far."
"General Xie lives outside Jiangnan City, not far away."
Chu Li was surprised.
"What a coincidence?"
"Yes, otherwise, why do you think I let you hang at General Xie's knees?"
Chu Li's brows relaxed.
The emperor's uncle is truly a man who takes ten steps and looks a hundred steps ahead. He has a long-term vision and plans so far ahead, as if everything is under his control.
Okay.
Then let’s go visit General Xie.
"I'll have someone buy some gifts."
"I have prepared the gifts in advance."
"Then I'll take Yan'er with me. General Xie is old and alone, and he's lonely. I'm sure he'd like the company of a child."
"This is our first visit and we have something to ask for. It's not convenient to bring Yan'er with us. Let's meet him first and then bring him. This way it won't seem presumptuous."
Chu Li pinched her fingertips lightly.
She hadn't thought it through.
"Then let's call Dr. Bai. It's time to change the medicine on your hand."
"Bai Jinyi is currently busy as he has to go back to Divine Doctor Valley. I'm afraid he has already left Jiangnan City."
"Then I'll go to the clinic and get some medicine."
Chu Dichi followed her.
After buying the medicine, the two left the city and took a carriage to a lake as wide as the sea, where they changed to a small boat.
The lake is vast, the waves are sparkling, the breeze is cool, and the scenery is very pleasant.
Chu Li looked at the scenery outside, and saw the boat going farther and farther away, and couldn't help asking:
"General Xie lives on the island in the middle of the lake?"
Chu Dichi looked at her clean and innocent little face and smiled: "Well, he likes quietness, taking care of his parents, and doesn't like outsiders to disturb him."
