On the way back, Ji Yuan asked curiously, "What did she say to you?"
Feng Qingyue shrugged: "What else can I say? She said she was your childhood sweetheart."
Ji Yuan's face darkened. He looked into the little girl's eyes solemnly, as if swearing, "I really don't remember when I ever crossed paths with her."
He paused. "If I had to say... I might have been in the same building with her during the Federation banquet."
Feng Qingyue burst out laughing. She looked at the tall man beside her with a frown on his face, and couldn't help laughing: "You are the marshal of the Federation after all..."
Ji Yuan squeezed the girl's soft palm, his brows gentle, his voice low: "I put most of my energy into the army, and I don't know anything about the trivial matters in the Federation."
He seemed to have thought of something, and a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes: "If they want to bully you, just beat them up boldly. I will always be by your side."
Feng Qingyue listened to the man's deep, magnetic voice and couldn't help but chuckle: "Don't worry, they're not qualified yet."
The two of them stayed on the road for a while, and when they returned to the manor, they saw someone waiting at the door.
The man was dressed formally. When he saw the two people walking hand in hand, a bright smile appeared on his face.
"Brother, you are finally back."
Ji Xuan walked up quickly. He first nodded and greeted Feng Qingyue, then patted his brother's shoulder affectionately.
Ji Yuan chuckled lightly, his tone calm: "What happened?"
Ji Xuan waved his hand. "Nothing happened. The flowers in the Federal Center Garden have been blooming recently, and it's time for my aunt to invite a bunch of noble ladies to enjoy the flowers and chat together to strengthen their relationship."
He looked at his elder brother and said, "My aunt said that she wanted to invite my sister-in-law this time. This is a good opportunity to prove my sister-in-law's status again, so that no one with no brains can talk nonsense again."
Ji Xuan lowered his voice, his tone revealing a hint of helplessness: "You also know that those noble women don't worry about their livelihoods, and they love gossip every day."
Ji Yuan didn't rush to answer. He turned and looked at the little girl: "Do you want to go?"
There was indulgence between his eyebrows and his tone was his usual cold and leisurely: "If you don't want to go, I can help you get rid of it."
Ji Xuan also nodded: "Yes, sister-in-law... If you don't want to go, then don't go. Let my brother take you somewhere else to play."
Feng Qingyue shook her head gently: "It's okay, I can go."
Ji Xuan smiled and took out a retro invitation from his spiritual space: "Okay, sister-in-law, if you are bullied, tell me and my brother, we will support you."
Feng Qingyue tilted her head and winked playfully: "Usually I'm the one who bullies others..."
Ji Xuan scratched his head and smiled gently: "Then I'll go first, sister-in-law, please pay attention to the time."
The two stood at the door and watched Ji Xuan slowly walk out of their sight.
Ji Yuan put his arm around the girl's slender waist and hugged her close to him: "Let's go, I'll go with you to choose a beautiful dress."
There was a hint of worry in his tone: "Baby, most of those noble women grew up together. They might deliberately exclude you at the banquet."
Feng Qingyue waved her hand leisurely: "It's okay, I don't care."
She rubbed her chin in a thoughtful manner. "There's a saying... When you're weak, even your anger is adorable..."
Just think of it as watching a free play, perfect to relieve the boredom of life."
Ji Yuan looked at the little girl's delicate profile with a faint smile on his lips.
He lowered his eyes and sent a message to his immediate superior, His Majesty Joyce: "Your Majesty, I will come to discuss military affairs with you today."
His Majesty Joyce stared at the message on the computer and fell into deep silence.
Jiwen curiously asked what happened to her husband, and His Majesty Joyce simply read out the news.
He was a little confused. "Normally, he'd never bothered to come back to a banquet like this, filled with women. What happened today? I didn't hear any particularly urgent military matters."
Ji Wen glanced at her husband and said casually, "This guy must be worried that his wife will be excluded when attending this kind of party for the first time."
His Majesty Joyce was amused. He smiled and said in a teasing tone, "I didn't expect that the usually cold and indifferent boy would become like this after falling in love..."
Ji Wen proudly held up an elegant and gorgeous skirt in her hand: "I said, steel tempered a hundred times becomes soft as silk... How do you like this skirt?"
His Majesty Joyce made relevant comments on several documents. He looked up and examined them carefully for a while. "Yes, the way the young man looks at his wife is almost tearing... She looks good and suits you very well."
The agreed arrival time soon arrived.
The banquet had not officially begun yet, and the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers. Girls in elegant and gorgeous clothes were gathered in groups of two or three. They were like bright stars, shining beautifully under the lights.
The pleasant sounds intertwine with each other, weaving together a dreamlike wonderland.
"Hey, have you heard? The Marshal's girlfriend is also invited to this banquet."
"I heard about it. I saw her photo on the Star Internet. She's a beautiful girl."
"Oh, I'm still so envious of that girl. Being a marshal is the dream of thousands of girls..."
"Tsk, maybe it's just a useless vase? My dad said that powerful people like this kind of thing."
"Hey, the Marshal is an idol of the younger generation, how can you say that?"
“…”
Feng Qingyue heard every word that was spoken with different emotions. She now felt as if there were a bunch of little sparrows chirping in her head.
It's quite noisy...
Ji Yuan touched the little girl's head and said, "Let's go. I'll take you there."
There was still some time before the banquet officially began. At this time, familiar noble women were gathered in twos and threes, chatting and laughing from time to time.
Ji Yuan took Feng Qingyue's hand and led her into the banquet.
The two extremely good-looking people quickly attracted the attention of most of the girls at the banquet.
Ji Yuan wore a platinum military uniform today. The straight uniform wrapped around the man's strong and powerful figure. His eyes were cold like a soldier, but when he lowered his eyes to look at the person beside him, the ice and snow melted away, leaving only tenderness in his heart.
The girl next to him was wearing a strapless long dress of the same color.
The girl has a great figure. Her soft waist is as thin as a hand, and her straight and slender long legs are revealed from the slit skirt, which adds a touch of charm for no reason.
Her exposed skin was delicate and fair, emitting a soft fluorescent glow under the light.
The Heart of the Ocean on the wrist is dazzling, and the two people standing side by side are really a perfect match.
