"Eat the meat, and no more drinking."
Ye Lingxiao, emboldened by some unknown source, looked directly into Li Chang'an's slightly misty eyes, his tone leaving no room for argument.
The soldiers around him dared not utter a sound, secretly admiring General Ling Xiao's boldness emboldened by alcohol, and also wanting to see how their general would react, hoping for a good show.
"I don't want to eat this, it's too greasy."
Li Chang'an frowned, muttered something, and put the meat back into Ye Lingxiao's bowl, looking like he was throwing a tantrum.
Ye Lingxiao couldn't help but chuckle, then moved a plate of steamed fish in front of him, carefully selected a piece from the belly of the fish, dipped it in some broth, and put it into Li Chang'an's bowl.
"This is your favorite food, you can't give it back to me."
Ye Lingxiao's eyes held a hint of doting affection. Li Chang'an, in a fit of pique, picked up his chopsticks and stuffed the fish into his mouth. "Fine, I'll eat it! Who's afraid of who!"
"That's right, no drinking, eat your food properly!"
"oh……"
This is absolutely astounding!
Apart from Li Chang'an and Ye Lingxiao, everyone else present was stunned.
By this time, Deputy General Sun had sobered up considerably and began to applaud Ye Lingxiao's heroic act.
Well done, young man!
"W-what's going on?"
"How should I know!"
"Deputy General Sun, our General and General Ling Xiao..."
"Shut up, all of you!"
Lieutenant General Sun slapped a soldier on the back of the head, looking like a reclusive master. He stroked a non-existent long beard and said, "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed."
"There's potential!"
The soldier chuckled maliciously despite being slapped, and the surrounding soldiers understood, all looking thoughtfully at Li Chang'an and Ye Lingxiao.
Wow, they're clearly a match made in heaven!
The banquet was filled with laughter and cheerful conversation. After a few rounds of drinks, Li Chang'an felt a little dizzy. She swayed as soon as she stood up and couldn't help but rub her forehead, saying, "This alcohol really has a strong aftereffect..."
"I'll take you home first."
Ye Lingxiao helped her up first, looking at Li Chang'an's slightly tipsy face with some concern. Her eyes were filled with tears, making her look pitiful and touching.
"Alright, everyone stay here and wait for me to come back! Oh no, this floor feels a little soft..."
Li Chang'an staggered as she supported Ye Lingxiao's arm. Afraid of falling, she grabbed his waist with her other hand. Ye Lingxiao felt very uncomfortable and stiffly helped Li Chang'an towards her tent.
The sight of the two figures from behind caused another uproar.
"So touching!"
"I haven't seen such a well-matched couple in years!"
"Let's help General Lingxiao!"
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, then turned to look at Deputy General Sun in unison. His eager gaze sent a chill down Sun's spine. "What are you all looking at me for? If you want to do it, then do it! Don't act like a bunch of women!"
Everyone cheered and discussed how to make the lovers be together. However, after discussing for a long time, they could not find the best way. After all, their General Chang'an was not an ordinary woman. How could she be conquered so easily?
"Well then, since we're going to break the ice, we can't let our general take the initiative first. Why don't we start with General Ling Xiao?"
Deputy General Sun solemnly explained his ideas to everyone, and everyone nodded in agreement.
Without further ado, Deputy General Sun took the lead and went to Li Chang'an's tent to wait for Ye Lingxiao to come out.
Inside the tent, Ye Lingxiao helped Li Chang'an sit down, poured her a cup of tea to help her sober up, and then asked her with concern if she wanted to lie down on the bed for a while.
"I'm fine. I just had a few drinks. I can wash my face with cold water."
Li Chang'an waved her hand dismissively, and Ye Lingxiao felt ashamed after hearing her words.
A few drinks? She truly is a heroine among women!
"Then, I'll wait for you outside."
"No need, you should go back first!"
Ye Lingxiao felt it was inappropriate for a man and a woman to be alone in the tent. He also felt his blood rushing to his head because of the alcohol he had been drinking. When he looked at Li Chang'an, he thought she was even more beautiful than usual.
A fatal attraction.
No, no, Ye Lingxiao shook his head and quickly left the tent, intending to go out for a walk to get some fresh air and sober up.
"Hey, General Lingxiao!" Lieutenant General Sun was leaning against a pillar in his tent with his arms crossed, waiting. "How is General Chang'an?"
After saying that, he looked into the tent again.
"Oh, she's alright. Did Vice General Sun need something from me?" Ye Lingxiao asked bluntly, immediately realizing that Vice General Sun had deliberately waited for him there.
"Shall we go for a walk?"
"I can't help it," Deputy General Sun probed.
Let's go.
Ye Lingxiao readily agreed.
The two walked side by side, followed by a string of little tails, with several soldiers excitedly trailing behind them.
Deputy General Sun knew exactly what kind of people they were. He was afraid of being discovered by Ye Lingxiao, so he kept subtly signaling to the soldiers who were secretly following him to get lost.
Several soldiers were also anxious, wondering why Deputy General Sun hadn't spoken yet.
In truth, it wasn't that Deputy General Sun was unwilling to speak; he simply didn't know where to begin. Ye Lingxiao, standing to the side, remained silent for a long time before finally becoming impatient himself, asking, "General Lingxiao, have you taken a liking to our general?"
I'm going to throw caution to the wind today. At worst, I'll get a beating from the general when he finds out!
Deputy General Sun began to comfort himself, thinking that he was doing it for the good of his general and had a clear conscience.
Ye Lingxiao was clearly not expected Vice General Sun to be so abrupt. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded somewhat embarrassedly, and then his ears turned bright red at a visible speed.
