"Xie Feng."
Xie Feng raised his head and smiled at her, "You haven't called me second uncle for a long time."
Song Yuehua sat down next to him, poked some of the fire, and said, "You don't like being called Second Uncle by me."
"Um."
Xie Feng didn't say anything, just lowered his head and looked at the fire.
"I wanted to come and help, but I ended up causing you trouble." Song Yuehua said.
Xie Feng said, "This is not your fault."
"Xie Feng."
"Um?"
Song Yuehua asked, "Is there no other way?"
“This is the best way.”
“This is not a good idea at all.”
Xie Feng chuckled and said, "In the face of justice, individuals are nothing."
"Calculate……"
Song Yuehua's voice was very soft, and Xie Feng's eyes paused for a moment.
The bonfire was burning brightly, reflecting into Song Yuehua's eyes.
"Xie Feng, let's run away."
"What?"
Song Yuehua looked at Xie Feng, staring at him straight in the eyes.
"Let's escape. Don't worry about the Saintess or the Major General. These things are too complicated and beyond our control. I'll take Dabao, Xiaobao, and Xiaoyu with me. Let's go to a faraway place to start over and live a good life..."
“Moonlight…”
Xie Feng was a little absent-minded. He stretched out his hand, but stopped just before it touched her face. He said gently, "This is not what you want, nor what I want."
Song Yuehua lowered her eyes.
The fire in the woodpile was burning brightly, and the flames reflected on the faces of the two men.
"If I weren't so slow, would things be different?" Song Yuehua murmured.
Xie Feng thought about it seriously before saying, "Maybe it will be worse..."
“That’s right…”
Both publicly and privately, there seems to be no way out.
Song Yuehua sighed softly. After all, she and Xie Feng were not the same kind of people.
The next morning, when Song Yuehua and Gongsun Yan were about to leave, more than thirty Yi people blocked the entrance of the cave.
One of the middle-aged men stood up and spoke.
"Second Lieutenant Xie, if you want to let Miss Gongsun go, we have nothing to say, but that kid..."
The middle-aged man pointed at Song Yuehua and said, "Five of my clansmen lost their lives, and two others had their legs broken by him. I'm afraid this man can't just leave like that."
Xie Feng's eyes were sharp as he asked, "So, the clan leader wants to break the agreement?"
"No need to break the contract," the middle-aged man said, "Just hand over this person, and everything else will remain the same."
Xie Feng's hand had already touched the dagger at his waist.
Song Yuehua quickly stepped forward and said, "You have detained the young general's wife, and you still expect the young general to cooperate with you? How can you cooperate? Are you going to destroy you?"
The middle-aged man was stunned, looking a little doubtful.
Song Yuehua let her hair down to reveal her female appearance, and said nonchalantly, "Xiao Yan'er, do you think I am right?"
Gongsun Yan was still wondering what the hell Song Yuehua was talking about.
Suddenly she called me and I reacted immediately.
"Yes, she is the eldest daughter of Mr. Song from the Shangshu Mansion, who is engaged to my brother."
"If you dare to attack her, you will be the enemy of the General's Mansion, the Shangshu Mansion, and the entire court!"
Fortunately, Gongsun Yan responded quickly. Song Yuehua had no idea about so many mansions. If she had said one more word, she would have been exposed.
