“If you’re caught by an enemy, what would you do?”

Despite the warmness in her chest, she was still reminded of the future that had plagued her all day. She was worried that he would be in danger like in the series.

“I would rather die than betray my country.” His low voice was resolute.

It was normal for soldiers, spies, or even generals to be caught for gaining information and strategy plans, or for using them as bargain chips in exchange for a retreat. It was beyond doubt that a man like Ouyang Feilong would not choose a cowardly route and willingly become a tool for the enemy. The Black Dragon would willingly choose death over betraying his motherland.

“What are you worried about?” He suddenly stopped. His hands came to hold Bai Yu’s shoulders after he noticed her long silence after his question.

Bai Yu pinched her lips together tight. Thoughts collided with each other. She knew the result of the war but was unclear on its details. The only thing she was sure of was that Ouyang Feilong disappeared, and Ouyang Mingxian, who took his place as the general, then gained favor after the war.

In the end, Da Yang gained a victory, and then Ouyang Feilong returned together with the army. She was uncertain whether she should tell him this or not, or whether the future would change or not if she told him. And if the future ended up changing, then would that victory no longer be confirmed?

She was full of uncertainty. She was worried about him, but she was also worried about the future. She did not want any harm to befall him, but she also wanted the victory that had him in it. If she revealed the future events to him right now, then it might change. Undoubtedly, Bai Yu trusted in Ouyang Feilong’s ability. Still, anything that concerned him discouraged her from playing with fate. What should she do?

.....

“Xiao Yu.”

“Yes, Your Highness?”

Ouyang Feilong frowned. Her responding this way meant that her little mind was preoccupied by something. “Say it.” He had to use a scolding tone once again.

Bai Yu closed her eyes, resigned. “If...If one day you’re caught by Da Chu soldiers...”

“That will never happen-”

“But what if it does?!” Her dark eyes were filled with worry when she turned to him. “If something goes wrong, if you slip up...and get caught...what if you’re imprisoned...tortured...”

“I will return.” His voice was firm. Ouyang Feilong himself did not know where he got that confidence. Though he fully realized the slight chance of returning after being captured by the enemy, her gaze was the force that compelled him to say it. His heart beat in agreement. He would win and surely return to her.

“Xiao Yu.” Seeing her eyes still clouded by worry, his hands moved from her thin shoulders to her soft cheeks. “Up until now, I’ve been killing for the country, for the throne, for the Emperor. Those were the things I was willing to sacrifice my life for, but this time is different...”

“How...?”

His golden eyes had already revealed the answer, but she still wanted to hear it in his voice so that the cacophony in her mind might subside.

“If I lose this war, I can’t come back here ever again...”

“You’ll never...return to the capital?”

Ouyang Feilong nodded. His lips curved into a slight smile. “That’s why I won’t lose.”

“No matter what I have to face, I will return. Understand now, little fool?”

Bai Yu said nothing, only nodded as a tear fell from her eyes.

“Don’t cry.” His large hand gently wiped away her tears. “You’re already ugly enough.”

It was as if Bai Yu could no longer hear him. At the moment of his promise, tears welled up from an unknown depth and spilled out, and so Ouyang Feilong had to help wipe them for her.

“You must take care of yourself.” The words were a command, yet the tone was soft.

Bai Yu nodded repeatedly. Her lips were pressed together tightly to suppress her sobs. Ouyang Feilong could not help but laugh at the image in front of him.

“You too.” His laugh seemed to have made her so embarrassed that she could order her tears to stop flowing. She stared at the man who told her to take care of herself despite him being the one going to war. “Take care of yourself.”

“Mm.”

“Don’t get hurt.”

“Mm.”

“Don’t get sick.”

“Mm.”

“Don’t fall ill.”

“Mm.”

“Don’t cheat.”

“Hm?” Ouyang Feilong raised a brow, to which Bai Yu responded in kind.

He lightly pinched the tip of her nose. “Shameless woman.”

The one you love, right?

Ah...She could only think that. Her face was not thick enough to say it out loud.

“Wangye.”

They separated at the sound of a newcomer’s voice. When Bai Yu and Ouyang Feilong turned to its source, they found three soldiers from the army kneeling not far away from them.

They had already arrived at the rendezvous point, however, the conversation moments ago made them stop for too long. Thus, the troop who had noticed their presence were curious about the silence. The three soldiers came here to investigate their strange action, though all of them did not expect that they would interrupt the couple. However, they had already called out to Ouyang Feilong, and so they had no other choice but to kneel down.

“Has Master Xu arrived?” Ouyang Feilong was as sensible a man as ever. The soldiers discreetly let out a sigh of relief, then the captain answered, “Yes, sir.”

“Then let’s go.” The general said to his subordinates, yet his hand still held Bai Yu’s as he led her to follow him.

Soon, a troop consisting of roughly thirty men appeared to Bai Yu. All of them wore full armor, lining up in neat rows, ready to head to war. They had been under Ouyang Feilong for a long time, and so the tradition of not looking at a noble’s face was not enforced among them. Thus, they were all staring at the woman following behind their commander in confusion. Who was she?

“Insolent!”

The soldiers immediately retracted their gazes. The general rarely used such word with them, who were all his brothers in arms. They now understood that this woman must be a significant person to him. No one dared to even glance at the hem of her skirt.

Bai Yu acted similarly. She lowered her head, not looking at anyone because of the embarrassment of her being held by her hand and of the fact that she was the reason that the soldiers were kept waiting.

Ouyang Feilong listened to the report from the captain behind him. Shortly after, he let go of Bai Yu’s hand and stepped forward to allow his soldiers to help him wear his armor in preparation for the departure.

Bai Yu glanced at the various steps of dressing Ouyang Feilong in armor, feeling resigned. She had never learned anything about this before, and so it was a shame that there was nothing she could help him with here. Still, it would be best if he never had to wear it ever again.

“Nice body.”

Bai Yu looked at the said body and nodded. “Yeah.”

Ah!

“Ohohohoho”

“Xu Luanle!”

“Hi, you pervert.”

“I wasn’t looking at him.”

“Is that so?”

“Oh, shut up.”

“Ohohohoho.” Even without his signature fan, he still laughed the same way as usual.
