Chapter 249: Using Green Tea to Defeat Green Tea, Falling in Love with the Warlord (28)
The news that the Japanese army had withdrawn and the war was over reached the ears of patriotic people everywhere almost immediately, and everyone in the country celebrated.
Li Ziyan stood by the radio, listening with a smile on his face but tears streaming down his face.
It's over, it's all over.
Li Ziyan held the red rope on his wrist, tears dripping uncontrollably, leaving dark marks on his gown.
Several maids nearby wanted to come up and persuade her, but they were crying so hard that they could only hug her and cry together.
"Come back, come back, I'm waiting for you..." Li Ziyan was crying, but there was a smile on his face. All his emotions reached the peak at this moment.
There is a distance between the south and the north, and Han Zhiyao still has to deal with some trivial matters, so the time of his return is uncertain. However, the Marshal's Mansion has regained its popularity at this time, and it is bustling with lights and decorations, and everyone has changed into brightly colored clothes.
The capital was bustling with activity, and everyone had a relaxed smile on their face.
"Mr. Yan! Mr. Yan!" Li Ziyan was strolling in the yard when he heard the old housekeeper's excited shout. His heart skipped a beat, and he lifted the hem of his long gown and strode forward.
"Butler, but...but the Marshal?"
The old housekeeper's eyes were filled with tears and he could not speak. He could only nod repeatedly with trembling hands.
Li Ziyan thought that when Han Zhiyao came back, he would rush up to him happily. He even anticipated that he would have to suppress his emotions and excitement so as not to be misunderstood.
But it was not until now, until everything really happened, that Li Ziyan realized that all the predictions were just predictions.
He could only stand there in a daze, unable to move, not knowing where to go, his mind blank.
"Zi Yan,"
A familiar voice came from the front. Li Ziyan's body stiffened. He raised his head and saw the familiar yet unfamiliar figure.
Still as tall and handsome, still as resolute, his eyes were still the same as before, tough yet gentle towards him.
Li Ziyan's hands were shaking. He stood there, opened his mouth but couldn't say a word. Tears fell to the ground.
The next second, he was hugged tightly in someone's arms.
"Don't cry, I'm back, I'm back."
The comfort of a lover is the best catalyst. The longing and worry that had been dormant for two years burst out at this moment. Li Ziyan raised his hand and hugged the person in front of him tightly, but was afraid of touching the other's wound and did not dare to use force.
She buried herself in the other's arms, sobbing softly, her tears wetting the other's collar.
But this was far from enough. The sobbing gradually grew louder, and finally turned into a wailing without restraint or image. Li Ziyan's collapse, the longing, and the worry of the past few years finally came to an end at this moment.
"I'm sorry, don't cry, I'm back and I won't make you worry anymore." Han Zhiyao felt that all these tears fell into his heart, burning his heart and making it ache.
Although Li Ziyan was emotionally broken, he still had his sanity. He came out of Han Zhiyao's arms with swollen eyelids and red eyes. Han Zhiyao raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes. The two looked at each other and laughed.
"I can't leave you anymore. If I do that again, you'll turn into a little crybaby."
Li Ziyan's face flushed, but he didn't argue with him. After all, he was the one crying and embarrassed himself. "Go see grandma. She's very worried about you."
"Well, you go with me."
Li Ziyan nodded. This was natural. He just wanted to stay by Han Zhiyao's side, never leaving her side. Only after experiencing separation did one know how precious such companionship and companionship were.
After all, they were in the Marshal's Mansion, with no outsiders around. Even in front of others, Han Zhiyao didn't want to hide their relationship. He and Li Ziyan intertwined their fingers and the two of them entered the hall together.
The housekeeper had already gone to inform the old lady. When the two of them entered, the old lady was already standing in the middle of the living room, her hands trembling, as she walked step by step to Han Zhiyao.
Han Zhiyao knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to the old lady, "Grandma, the child is back."
"You're back, it's good that you're back, it's good that you're back... wu... it's good that you're back!" The old lady was already in tears. If Li Ziyan hadn't been supporting her, she would probably have collapsed and sat on the ground.
The maids and the housekeeper also huddled together, crying uncontrollably. Adjutant Liu stood aside, looking at this happy family scene, his eyes sore, as if he had thought of something, and turned to leave.
"Okay, kid, get up quickly, get up quickly, it's good that you're back, let grandma take a look," the old lady touched Han Zhiyao's face and smiled, "You've become stronger and darker, does the wound hurt?"
"It's almost healed, don't worry." Han Zhiyao smiled, helped the old lady sit down, and held Li Ziyan's hand with his other hand, "Everything has been taken care of now, I will be fine."
"Yeah, take a good rest at home, and grandma will give you some nourishment."
Han Zhiyao nodded repeatedly. The people around him were speechless. They had lost their usual eloquence and became even more adorable.
"Marshal!" Adjutant Liu came in from outside and saluted Han Zhiyao. Han Zhiyao looked at the figure behind him, smiled, and understood.
He looked at Li Ziyan beside him and put his arm around his shoulders. "Ziyan, look, look who's coming over."
Li Ziyan looked up when he heard that, and the person behind Adjutant Liu raised his head, revealing a face that still looked somewhat youthful.
"Little Stone!" Li Ziyan quickly stood up from the sofa and walked over to Little Stone. "Little Stone! Is that you?! Let me see!"
"Sir! It's me!" Little Stone has grown into an adult, but his eyes are red, just like when the two first met.
"You've grown up, you've grown up." Li Ziyan looked at Xiao Shitou, touched his epaulettes, and smiled, "You've become a man now."
Little Stone looked at Li Ziyan and smiled as well, then reached out and hugged Li Ziyan, "Thank you, sir."
Without Li Ziyan, he would have long ago perished in the mountains. Without Li Ziyan, he wouldn't have had the opportunity to study, attend military school, become a soldier, defend his country, and avenge his family. It was Li Ziyan who gave him a new life.
"It is you who has grasped your destiny."
The two hugged for a while, but Han Zhiyao felt jealous. He walked over and pulled them apart, hiding the jealousy in his eyes. "Ahem, I still have something to say to Ziyan. You two should have a good rest in the mansion. We'll have dinner together tonight."
"……yes."
The others looked at each other in silence until Han Zhiyao pulled Li Ziyan's wrist and went upstairs, then they all burst into laughter.
