The General's Darling Is Delicate

What time travel, what modern world, he couldn’t quite grasp what these words were meant to convey.

"Don’t understand?" Yun Chunnuan looked at his hopeful expression, feeling a bit amused and a little nervous.

Suddenly, she wondered if she had been too impulsive.

In a moment of heat, she had revealed such an extraordinary thing to him, what if he couldn’t accept it?

Strictly speaking, this was borrowing a soul to return, wasn’t it?

Yes, just borrowing a soul.

Perhaps saying it like this, he would understand?

"Do you understand what borrowing a soul means? But this body, it wasn’t what I wanted. By the time I was in it, the Great Xia Princess was already dead.

If I hadn’t pulled out the hairpin and stabbed it into the Marriage Envoy’s neck, I might have been killed by him as well."

Yelyu Lie was silent for a long time.

Carefully distinguishing every word the Little Princess said.

He didn’t quite grasp the rest, but how could he not understand borrowing a soul?

Recollecting what she had just said, leaving him utterly confused...

Yelyu Lie just felt his heart start to beat violently.

"Then... will you leave this body again?"

He had so many questions in his mind! But what he cared about most, what he was most concerned about, was that since she had borrowed a soul, would she leave this body again!

Hmm.

Her Barbarian General, why was he so different from the male leads in time travel novels?

People are usually curious about everything from the original world of the time travel female lead, yet he worried if she would leave this body again.

She found this question a bit silly.

Yet she saw the man looking terrified, even his arms embracing her were trembling.

"What’s the matter, don’t be so scared, my original body fell from a tall building to save someone and already became a meat patty, how could I go back!"

Died saving someone?

Crashed into a patty?

Yelyu Lie shivered, "Aren’t you silly, a young girl, should cherish yourself, why do something like sacrificing your life? Did it hurt?"

Hearing about her past, Yelyu Lie was filled with heartache.

He had so many doubts about the Little Princess before.

Why was she not the least bit similar to the rumors? Why when she said she missed home, it wasn’t Great Xia? Why did she always say some inexplicable words? Why...

So many, he kept telling himself not to doubt her.

Since she was Yelyu Lie’s wife, he had to love her, protect her, trust her.

If it weren’t for that apron and the two letters expressing their hearts to each other, he might never have asked anything in this lifetime and continued with her...

Now, everything had an explanation.

His Little Jiaojiao was not that arrogant and overbearing Great Xia Princess.

She died saving someone, which meant she was a very kind-hearted, even somewhat silly girl.

She was generous to people, lively and cheerful, spirited and adorable, all that enchanted him wasn’t due to this body’s appearance.

It turns out, it was because of her... just her.

A silly girl who didn’t know where she borrowed a soul from...

Yun Chunnuan talked about past memories, feeling like it was just a dream.

It’s a lie to say she didn’t miss home, she had been trying hard to forget everything.

Today, those eighteen years of past events flashed through her mind scene by scene, finally freezing at the moment she fell from a high place, rapidly descending.

It did hurt, how could it not?

It’s not as if falling meant instant death, that kind of pain, she couldn’t describe it.

She thought no one would ever hear of it in this lifetime.

With just one simple question from him, her eyes reddened immediately, "It hurt! It hurt so much! Falling from such a high place, all the bones in my body shattered, sob, sob, but what hurt me the most wasn’t the body, it was the longing..."

Yun Chunnuan sniffed, "I miss my dad, miss my mom, that day when I had a fever, I dreamed of them, mom fainted from crying.

You see, they raised me until my adulthood, just when I could repay them, they had to send me away in such a tragic way, with white hair mourning black hair, and the body so miserable...

I dare not think, every time I think about how sad my parents must be when they see my body, I just..."

As Little Jiaojiao spoke, Yelyu Lie’s heart twisted with pain.

He finally understood what she meant by not being able to go back.

She belonged to a world completely different from his own.

Not Great Xia, not Sha Hai, not Chu Qing, not... any corner of this continent.

So when she said she couldn’t go back, she truly couldn’t go back.
