Chapter 283: Wait for me when the flowers bloom
This time, Ying Er turned around and left without being stopped. He came down from the top deck smoothly and let his brother Ying Yi and others rest. Then he continued to lead Li Yaoguang and Ji Mo upstairs.
Li Yaoguang walked and looked, still sighing with emotion. This ancient warship looked large, magnificent and multi-layered, especially like the legendary treasure ship that Zheng Chenggong used to sail to the West. Ying Er, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped.
Li Yaoguang was puzzled: "What is this?"
Ying Er's gaze passed over her and looked at Ji Mo behind her.
"I'm sorry, Master Ji, our general has ordered us to talk to Miss Li alone. Please move to the cabin and rest."
Ji Mo paused, his tongue pressed against his back teeth, his eyes darkening.
Li Yaoguang also looked at Ying Er in surprise: "What do you mean?"
Ying Er showed no emotion at all, like a robot, and said in a serious tone, "Miss, this is the headquarters of the military, and it involves confidential information. Outsiders are not allowed to enter at will."
amount……
The army was about to set out, and she was rushing to see her uncle. But obviously, if she didn't see Shen Yue, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to see her uncle!
In order to see the person as soon as possible and take him away, Li Yaoguang had to let his father and brother inconvenience. There was a deep pleading look in his eyes when he looked at his father and brother.
"Brother, how about you wait for me for a while?"
Whenever Li Yaoguang opened his mouth, Ji Mo had no way of refusing. However, when he looked at Ying Er who was standing on the stairs to stop him, Ji Mo secretly clenched his hands hidden in his sleeves. He didn't know why, but he felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
"Brother, brother? Please, please."
The voice of his beloved girl brought him back to his senses. After looking at Li Yaoguang, Ji Mo could only take a step back and nodded: "Okay, be careful. Call me if anything happens."
Just like that, Ji Mo was stopped at the stairs by fully armed soldiers, and watched Li Yaoguang follow Ying Er up the stairs and disappear before his eyes.
So angry!
With his ability, there was only a floor between them. He wanted to follow the footsteps coming from upstairs and eavesdrop. However, the soldier was too rigid and didn't let him move. He insisted on taking him to the cabin, which made Ji Mo even angrier.
Considering that Li Yaoguang couldn't take action, Ji Mo could only follow the soldier to the cabin in frustration, but he was always worried about someone in his heart.
Li Yaoguang, who was worried about him, followed Ying Er all the way to the front deck of the top floor. He immediately saw the man in silver armor with a red tassel on his head flying in the wind, smiling and walking towards him.
"Yao Guang."
"Shen Yue."
"It's good to see you're okay."
"Hehe, I'm sorry to have made everyone worry. By the way, where is my uncle?"
The ecstatic Shen Yue felt as if he was poured with cold water. Facing Li Yaoguang who was eager to see his relatives, he paused, instantly concealed the disappointment in his eyes, covered up his gaffe, and shouted to the shadow behind Li Yaoguang.
"Ying Er, go and invite General Cheng over."
Li Yaoguang followed Shen Yue's line of sight and saw Ying Er move, and hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
For a moment, the two men on the deck were speechless. The scene was silent, with only the sound of the wind.
Shen Yue looked at the person in front of him greedily and thought a lot.
This trip north is the final battle with Hu Di. He will not stop until Hu Di is driven out of Dajing, the north is recovered, and his father is avenged. He is crucial in this battle. He is very happy to see her again before the war.
He still remembers vividly the support she gave him back then, their side-by-side battles, and her loyalty to him in times of trouble. Moreover, she never forgot to take him with her when they were successful. He understands her heart, and he has many things to say to her.
But on the eve of the decisive battle, there are too many unknowns. Even he himself cannot be sure that he can escape unscathed this time, not to mention that he wants revenge. Anything can happen on the battlefield. If he encounters Hu Di's desperate resistance... he has no complete confidence.
He didn't want to add to her troubles? But if he didn't say it, he was afraid that when he returned... Shen Yue suddenly felt his throat was very dry.
Li Yaoguang noticed that Shen Yue looked a little strange, and wondered if it was related to his uncle, so he asked hurriedly, "Shen Yue, is there something wrong?"
Meeting Li Yaoguang's gaze and hearing her concerned words, Shen Yue suddenly smiled again, as if he had suddenly figured something out.
"Don't worry, it's okay, don't worry."
"Oh, that's good." As long as it doesn't involve my family, it's fine.
Li Yaoguang nodded and didn't ask any more questions. However, he suddenly felt upset when he saw Shen Yue's eyes. His fists tightened unconsciously. After a moment of silence, he finally made up his mind and opened his thin lips.
"Yaoguang, the army is about to set out. After this separation, the road ahead is unknown, but I am confident that I can defeat the barbarians, sweep the northern lands, drive out the Tartars, and bring peace to the world! Do you believe me?"
"I believe."
Seeing Li Yaoguang nod without hesitation and say that she believed him, Shen Yue rarely showed a smile as bright as the sun, like a young man, "Really? That's great! Since you believe in me, Yaoguang, can you wait for me? I will definitely come back next year when the flowers are in full bloom."
Um, this development...
Meeting Shen Yue's burning gaze, Li Yaoguang was stunned at first, then he reacted.
She knew that this guy might be suffering from pre-war phobia and was very nervous, right?
Yes, he is still a young man after all! In the chaotic times, he was forced to take on such a big responsibility and had to face the cruel battlefields one after another. I think he must be under a lot of pressure. Before the battle, he must be eager to get the recognition and blessings of his friends, right?
There is a poem that goes, "In ancient times, few people returned from the battles. No matter what, this is his friend, a friendship for life and death. Although he is the commander-in-chief and not as dangerous as the vanguard soldiers and generals, there will always be casualties in a war. What if?
Thinking of this, Li Yaoguang felt soft-hearted. At his age, in modern times, he would only be a high school student. It was really difficult for him.
Meeting Shen Yue's anxiously expectant gaze, Li Yaoguang took the initiative to step forward, without any distractions, just as he said goodbye to a friend in his previous life. He hugged the other person gently and patted the other person's armor on the back heavily to show encouragement.
"General Shen, come on, I believe you can lead the army to defeat the enemy, recover the north, and lead us to victory. When you come back safe and sound, I will invite you to tour the New Sea Pavilion. As the boss, you haven't been to our New Sea Pavilion yet, right?"
As a friend, Li Yaoguang felt that her encouragement was very good, but she did not notice that when she took the initiative to step back after being hugged, the burning light suddenly burst out in someone's eyes.
Seeing that Li Yaoguang was about to back away after being hugged, Shen Yue seemed to be encouraged. He reached out and grabbed Li Yaoguang and hugged him tightly again.
Li Yaoguang was caught off guard and felt herself hit by a cold wall. The armor hit her chin and it hurt. She subconsciously pushed the person away but couldn't.
Li Yaoguang was anxious and was about to speak when a happy, muffled, excited, rare, and joyful chuckle came from above his head.
"Haha, that's great. I'll take that as your agreement. Don't worry, Yaoguang. I will definitely come back safe and sound and accompany you to see our new Hai Pavilion."
No? Brother, your tone is wrong. Did she say something wrong?
Poor her, she has been single for two lifetimes. In order to survive, let alone fall in love, she was a workaholic in her previous life and didn’t even have many ordinary male friends.
It was obviously a normal conversation, but why did she feel it was inexplicably abnormal and made her feel uneasy?
Could it be that I have encountered the romance plot in the novel?
No, no, no, she is so boring, not smart, not beautiful, has no outstanding personality, and is still an underage girl. Who would be so hungry and indiscriminate?
Well, I must be overthinking it!
Li Yaoguang's inherent thinking took over and he immediately shook off the idea that suddenly popped up in his mind. He patted the person who was holding him and finally got out of his arms. When he was about to continue to encourage and support this "anxious" friend, he heard a familiar urgent call from behind.
"Sister Guang!"
