Chapter 486 - 12.94
"Yunyu Gege..."
"Yes?"
"... Do you really need to leave so early?"
Bai Yunyu could feel a small hand grabbed the hem of his tunic. He looked down and saw Xu Jiansheng with his frowning chubby face, pouting at him, "Yunyu Gege, do you not like it here?"
"Hm? What do you mean?" Yunyu asked while he checked his belonging. Few left after his house was burned down.
"Do you not like it in Xi mansion? Why do you leave so fast?" Xu Jiansheng’s whining voice stopped Yunyu from doing his stuff. He sighed and crouched to be at Xu Jiansheng’s height.
He held Jiansheng’s shoulder and said, "Jiansheng, Yunyu Gege will have to study at the border. It will take a long time... if ever, for me to return. But trust me, I will send some letters along the way, okay?"
Xu Jiansheng pouted, "When I get bigger, I will go to the military as well!"
Yunyu chuckled and rubbed Jiansheng’s head, "Okay, okay, you can do that too. But you should also focus on your study, okay?"
Bai Yunyu was ready to use the carriage to go to the gate, the rendezvous for him and the Imperial troops, so he could go to the border in the north.
Before he left, Xu Jiansheng asked for the last time, "Yunyu Gege... when I’m older, are you willing to be... my wife?"
