Despite that.
No one dared say a word.
Everyone just watched General Bai Mowan, glorious and heroic on the battlefield, now vulnerable like a little bird, leaping into Xiao Jinxing's embrace.
Clutching tightly, she could hardly express her inner excitement.
"Wan'er," Xiao Jinxing called her softly, his voice gentle.
Just as it always had been when facing Bai Mowan.
"I am here," Xiao Jinxing soothed.
In that moment, he turned, enveloped her body in his arms, gently patting her trembling body from excitement.
Bai Mowan lay in Xiao Jinxing's arms and nodded.
A firm nod.
A long while.
Ultimately, she left Xiao Jinxing's embrace.
She suppressed the turmoil and emotion within her heart.
She knew all too well how big an impact Xiao Jinxing's coming to the border to fight had on him!
With his departure, who knew what changes might happen at court.
Xiao Jinsen will certainly seize the opportunity to consolidate power.
When Xiao Jinxing returns, everything will have changed.
