Jiang Pengji was worried. Sure enough, fathers loved their daughters dearly.

She told Qiguan Rang previously that she had not slept in a long time, but he looked at her like he did not believe her.

“I made you come all the way here from Chongzhou... I apologize. Now that the world is in utter chaos, it’s dangerous for you to travel all the way here. If you miss me, you can just ask someone to send me a letter. Why would you risk your life to come in person? If something happened to you in the middle of the journey, I’d feel guilty for the rest of my life,” Jiang Pengji said with concern. It was dangerous out there, but Liu She still dared to roam about.

Liu She chuckled and replied, “I wouldn’t feel at ease if I didn’t see you with my own eyes.”

The earthquake was abrupt. Even though Liu She was in Chongzhou, he still felt the shocks from it.

He couldn’t stand wondering if his daughter was okay.

“Now that I’ve seen you, I will sleep well tonight,” Liu She said gently.

Luo Yue glanced at Liu She. He was a gentle and noble man. He then looked at Jiang Pengji and could only think about her destructive actions. She was either killing people or planning to kill.

Were they truly related? They were so different. Jiang Pengji muttered, “I feel bad for making you worry.”

Liu She caressed his daughter’s head and comforted her quietly.

Liu Zhongqing! Don’t touch her precious head! What if it makes her stupid? He could still hear the woman’s insane laughter. It was his most vivid memory.

Zhongqing, don’t be too rough; be gentle... She’s firm in speech but soft at heart. She’s the greatest person in the world. Zhongqing, promise me that you won’t treat her poorly in the future. Treat her well and love her. It is for her own good––and for yours, too. I want you to live well, even if I’m no longer around. I want you both to live well. Show me a different history, okay?

When no one was around, Liu She pondered the words that Gu Min said before she died.

Has she returned to her own world? Is she living more freely than before?

Liu She shut his eyes to hide his thoughts. His yearning for her entangled him like a web; the hatred brewing in his heart grew even stronger.

Liu She was trying to find peace of mind. Upon seeing that Jiang Pengji was safe and sound, he planned to return to Chongzhou after two days of rest.

Feng Jin sensibly took on Jiang Pengji’s work, allowing her some time with her father to fulfill her filial piety.

It was then that Li Yun returned alone.

Meng Hun asked, “Han Mei, did you bring your master with you?”

Li Yun replied, “My master left a letter saying that he went to seek revenge. However, in all the years I’ve known him, I’ve never heard him mention any enemies. I am really anxious. However, my master is very skilled in martial arts, so he’ll be fine.”

Meng Hun secretly pouted but kept his mouth shut.

Based on Li Yun’s simple and innocent personality, his master was likely not a complicated person.

The world was so chaotic; one would be stripped to their underpants if they were not alert.

Li Yun went to the district headquarters to look for Jiang Pengji; he wished to return to his post in advance.

As soon as he stepped into the district headquarters, he saw that his Lord was eating with a middle-aged man. “Lord, I’m back to resume my work...”

Liu She lifted his head, and his eyes gradually widened. He cried out involuntarily, “Shaohe?”

Huh? Both Jiang Pengji and Li Yun were baffled. Li Yun turned his head to look behind him.

There was no one else there. Could it be that he was calling him?

After blurting out the name, Liu She immediately realized that he mistook Li Yun for someone else.

The person in front of him was too young and too tall. He was not the person he thought he was. He gestured for Li Yun to come closer, then he asked with a perplexed look on his face, “What’s your name?”

Li Yun glanced at Jiang Pengji to seek her opinion.

Jiang Pengji said, “Han Mei, this is my father. You can call him Sir.”

Liu She looked confused. “Han Mei? Is that your courtesy name?”

Li Yun’s courtesy name suited his face; he looked light-minded.

“I’m Li Yun. If you don’t mind, you can call me Han Mei.”

“Li Yun? Is your surname Li, not Xie?” Liu She asked, raising his eyebrows. “Do you know someone with the surname Xie?”

“My master’s surname is Xie,” Li Yun replied honestly. “Do you know him?”

“Do you call him your master?” Liu She laughed inwardly. His smile looked sarcastic. “Where is he hiding?”

Li Yun was confused. What else would he call his master?

The man in front of him seemed to know his master. It sounded like they knew each other very well.

“He went traveling a few days ago. He said that he’s out to seek revenge, but he asked me not to worry about him. If he’s still alive, he’ll definitely come to look for me. If he dies, he doesn’t need me to avenge him,” Li Yun said calmly.

Liu She smacked his lips and responded harshly, “He went to seek revenge? Tsk. You don’t have to wait for him anymore. It’s very likely that you’ll never find his body.”

Li Yun was fuming with rage. Even if he was his lord’s father and his master’s old friend, he was still furious.

“Do you know who your master went to seek revenge from?” Liu She was not afraid of the anger in Li Yun’s eyes. He smirked and continued, “He’ll be dead no matter what from barging into the Zhongzhao Palace. No matter how capable he, Xie Shaohe, is, and how skillful he is at shooting, he’s just seeking death.”

Not only was Li Yun taken aback by his words, but even Jiang Pengji widened her eyes. She stared at Li Yun.

Li Yun gritted his teeth. “Is my master’s enemy holing up in Zhongzhao Palace?”

“Something like that.” Liu She took a sip of tea and looked at Li Yun with a perplexed expression. “I think your master doesn’t intend to let you know the truth. If so, I won’t be the evil person that tells you. Work hard with Lanting. Your future is very bright.”

Liu She smacked his lips. Is the future of one of the top ten generals of the Jiang Dynasty bleak?

However, he never would have guessed that Li Yun was Xie Qian’s son. It was karma.

Li Yun’s heart was a mess. He asked Liu She hesitantly, “Do you know my master well?”

Liu She sighed with emotion. “Xie Shaohe and my late wife were childhood friends. You could say that we know each other well.” He paused, then asked, “Oh, right, how old are you? Are you married?”

Li Yun answered nervously, “I’m 20 years old, and I’ve never married.”
