Xiao Zheng smiled and said, “I heard you.”

“Then compare him and me.” A rare trace of frivolity flashed across Xie Xingyun’s eyes, reminding Bai Xianyu of him when he was a real teenager.

Young people were hot-blooded. They had to be the best in everything.

Xiao Zheng had already collected all the information about Mo Linyuan, and he also knew everything about Xie Xingyun very well. “The most famous thing which Young Master Mo did was when he accompanied the Daqing Emperor on his imperial expedition at the age of thirteen, and pointed out a flaw in the military tactics and quickly came up with another attack plan. He saved 30,000 troops and captured the fortress by surprise.”

Bai Xianyu had never heard of it before. She just treated it as a story.

“Thirteen years old. Seems pretty impressive.”

Xie Xingyun was a little jealous. “Hurry up.”

Xiao Zheng responded twice and quickly said, “It sounds very impressive, but Miss Bai, you don’t know. Our Young Master grew up in a military camp and followed the Prince of Nanzhao to quell the internal strife. When he was ten years old, he was already a military advisor that everyone admired. The Prince of Nanzhao quelled the military chaos in the north and suppressed the bandits. At least half of this was the efforts of our Young Master.”

Bai Xianyu’s eyes widened slightly as she said in surprise, “No way…”

Ten years old!

At that time, she and Fourth Brother were still racking their brains to memorize and copy books in the academy, but Xie Xingyun had already started leading troops!

“I swear on my life that none of what I said is a lie. The people in the capital only know that Young Master is talented in literature and is the youngest Zhuangyuan scholar in the history of Great Kui. However, very few people know about this part of his past. If not for something that happened in Nanzhao…”

Xie Xingyun said calmly, “You’ve gone off topic.”

Xiao Zheng hurriedly made a sharp turn and said with a smile, “Fifth Miss Bai, you just said that he’s handsome. This subordinate can’t understand. Although Young Master Mo is not bad looking, he’s far from being as handsome as my Young Master, right? Young Master has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and he is tall…”

Bai Xianyu watched as Xiao Zheng praised him with a long string of compliments without taking a breath. The corners of her mouth could not help but twitch.

Xie Xingyun leisurely raised his eyelids and gently knocked on the table. “Alright.” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Xiao Zheng immediately shut up.

“You may leave.”

“Yes.”

Bai Xianyu also placed her hands on the table curiously and stared at him with clear eyes. “Xie Xingyun, why aren’t you blushing?”

Xie Xingyun smirked and said lazily, “A man who cares about his face will not have a wife.”

Bai Xianyu,”…”

“Childish.”

Xie Xingyun raised his eyebrows, neither agreeing nor refuting.

She felt that she could no longer communicate with him normally. She took a deep breath and took a sip of tea.

Xie Xingyun’s gaze stopped at her wound for a moment and he sighed almost inaudibly. “Don’t do such a dangerous thing again.”

Bai Xianyu wiped her mouth with a handkerchief. “I was wearing a heart armor.”

The man’s eyes darkened when he saw her nonchalant attitude.

Bai Xianyu did not see his expression. She sighed and continued, “In any case, 1 lived for myself in my previous life. 1 can’t be so willful in this life. Just suffering an arrow and 1 was able to save my brothers’ military power and official positions. 1 think it’s worth it to be able to save them from running around and going into prison.”

Xie Xingyun tapped his fingers on the table. “If anything happens to you, the Kingdom-Stabilizing General’s Manor will be gone.”

Bai Xianyu paused. “What do you mean?”

“If anything happens to you because of them, let them pay with their lives.” The man’s tone was cold, as if he was discussing the weather today.

Bai Xianyu pursed her lips. “You won’t.”

Xie Xingyun suddenly stood up and bent down beside her, leaning close to her ear. “I’m not a good person. You should know that.”

His hands had been stained with the blood of many people, but now, everything had just begun.

Bai Xianyu said, “I know, but you won’t hurt my family.”

Xie Xingyun looked at her with interest. “Oh?”

Bai Xianyu also stood up and stared into his deep black eyes.

She said, “You love me.”

Xie Xingyun was surprised. He took a step closer and whispered, “And then?”

“You love me, so you won’t hurt them. In fact, if anything happens to them, you’ll save them.” Bai Xianyu’s voice was firm.

Even before he liked her in her previous life, he did not stay out of it.

Xie Xingyun stared at her face.

After a long time, he slowly smiled.

“Not necessarily.”

In the past, she could not see clearly. She felt that he was used to her existence, so she would not think in that direction but accepted this fact..
