Chapter 356 General's Childhood Sweetheart 8
Song Jiao: “…”
Xiao Qi's face below turned pale instantly.
Pei Lin looked at Song Jiao's face which suddenly turned depressed, and said nothing.
The war situation is tense now. As the head coach, he cannot let a suspicious person go easily. This is his responsibility.
Although Xiaoqi answered all the questions about her past clearly, there were still some doubts about her.
So he would not let her go just because of Song Jiao's words, and it was also for the sake of being responsible for the lives of more soldiers.
He continued, "I will send someone to investigate this matter thoroughly."
Song Jiao immediately asked: "What if she is innocent?"
Pei Lin glanced at the woman and said, "I'll make the final decision when the time comes."
After saying that, he called the soldiers outside in and asked them to take Xiao Qi away first.
Song Jiao felt a little sorry, but she also knew that Pei Lin was being responsible to everyone by doing this.
"Then can I go see her?" When Pei Lin was not around, she stayed in the tent every day and was really bored.
The soldiers outside would never speak unless necessary.
Pei Lin thought for two seconds: "Okay."
Song Jiao was delighted: "Thank you, Brother Lin!"
Pei Lin's throat rolled and he hummed.
Interrupted by this incident, the two of them also stopped talking about their previous topic. No one mentioned the kiss that happened when they accidentally fell, as if this matter had also been forgotten.
…
Xiaoqi's case was investigated very quickly, and the matter was thoroughly investigated after only half a day.
She didn't lie, everything was true.
So she was released very quickly, and Song Jiao went with others to pick her up.
Because Song Jiao had spoken for her in front of Pei Lin before, she was very grateful to Song Jiao.
Song Jiao didn't think it was a big deal, so she just smiled and said, "But since you're a woman, you might not be able to fight on the battlefield anymore. Do you think it's a pity?"
Xiao Qi was slightly stunned, then whispered, "Xiao Qi is just a woman. I came here for my father, so I don't feel sorry for it."
"That's good." Originally, Song Jiao was a little worried that she had some ambitions and would resist the theory and question why women could not go to the battlefield. Now it seems that she was worrying too much.
"There's one more thing," Song Jiao said. "Because there are limited tents in the camp, I might have to ask you to stay with me for a while. When we defeat Mobei and return to the capital, I'll have General Pei take you home. Is that okay?"
After Song Jiao finished speaking, Xiao Qi didn't say anything. She thought she was unwilling. When she was about to say something else, Xiao Qi suddenly knelt down in front of her.
Song Jiao was startled and hurried to help her: "What are you doing?"
"Xiao Qi is not wronged. Xiao Qi thanks Miss Song for clearing Xiao Qi's grievances."
Song Jiao helped her up and said with a smile: "You are innocent to begin with. I can't help you with anything."
And at the beginning she wanted Pei Lin to let her go, but Pei Lin directly refused!
Xiao Qi insisted that she was the one who helped her and Song Jiao failed to win the argument.
The two of them lived together in the military tent that Pei Lin had given up, and Lu Huan was finally not so bored anymore.
However, there was one thing that made her quite helpless. She treated Xiao Qi as a friend, but Xiao Qi treated her like a master and liked to kneel at every turn.
When Song Jiao helped her up again, he looked helpless: "Aren't you from a small village in Tianqi Kingdom? How did you learn the kneeling etiquette in the capital?"
Lu Huan asked casually, because in the original owner's memory, only the dignitaries in the capital had so many etiquettes to learn, while ordinary people had fewer restrictions and lived more freely.
Xiao Qi lowered her head and whispered, "In order to supplement the family income, I worked as a maid in a wealthy family."
Song Jiao suddenly realized, that's what it was.
She patted her head and said with a smile, "But you are no longer a maid now, and we are friends. I am not your master, so you don't have to kneel to me all the time."
She was afraid that being kneeled to so often would shorten her lifespan.
Xiao Qi was stunned by Song Jiao's actions. She looked at Song Jiao in a daze.
Friends?
This was the first time anyone had ever said such words to her since she was a child.
Both strange and novel.
-
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was time for the final battle between Tianqi and Mobei.
Rather than a battle, it was more like the Mobei Army's dying struggle.
Song Jiao knew that Pei Lin was going to fight today, so he went to find him.
After the soldier went in and reported the news that she was allowed to come in, Song Jiao walked into the military tent.
As soon as she entered the tent, her eyes fell on Pei Lin who was ready to go inside.
He looked just as he did when she first saw him after waking up, dressed in silver armor, heroic and handsome.
Song Jiao couldn't help but be fascinated by it.
"What do you want from me?"
Pei Lin's deep and rich voice interrupted Song Jiao's trance.
"Brother Lin." Song Jiao's lips curved slightly: "Jiao'er is here to see you off."
After saying this, Song Jiao bowed to him and said clearly: "Jiaoer wishes Brother Lin a successful start and a triumphant return."
Pei Lin looked at the woman with deep eyes and remained silent.
At this moment, the curtain was suddenly opened and the deputy general Qu Ziming walked in: "General, it's time for us to set off..."
