Chapter 80: Refused to Let Him Stay Behind!

“If you want to stay, then stay,” he said.

“General…” Yan Nuo was ready to object immediately.

“Really? Brother Yun, you’re so kind!” Xue Ling was instantly delighted.

However, her excitement did not last long because Qian Jiyun’s next words sent her straight to the eighteenth level of hell.

“Yan Nuo, send her to an inn. Let’s continue on our way.”

“What?!” Xue Ling was instantly unhappy.

How can they leave me here alone? What’s the point of me staying here alone?

“Brother Yun, you can’t do this. How can I be alone? It’s only for one night! Stay behind with me.”

However, Yan Nuo did not care about what she said. He began searching for an inn immediately after receiving the instructions.

“I—” Will not stay here.

Before Qian Jiyun could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by his younger sister. She wanted to stay behind too.

“Big Brother, you go back first. I’ll stay and accompany Sister Xue Ling.”

If she did not stay behind now, Xue Ling might continue to scheme and plot after she returned home.

She also could not delay her brother any longer. The military camp could not be leaderless for a day—but her brother had already left for nine days.

In fact, considering how Xue Ling had been acting, Qian Yiyun was sure she had ulterior motives.

She refused to let her brother stay behind!

“Yan Yan!” Upon hearing that, Xue Ling gritted her teeth and glared at Qian Yiyun.

To her, Qian Jiyun seemed like he was going to give in. As long as she pretended to be pitiful and dragged Qian Yiyun into this, Qian Jiyun would go along with her plan because he loved his sister.

But now, everything is destroyed by this idiot, Qian Yiyun!

“Alright. Yanyan, stay here with Xue Ling. You can return slowly. I’ll send someone to pick you up once I’m back,” Qian Jiyun immediately said.

“Okay,” Qian Yiyun replied.

Soon, the four of them arrived at an inn.

After making arrangements for the two ladies, Qian Jiyun left with Yan Nuo. Although his younger sister was a lady, he had begun teaching her martial arts after what happened four years ago.

Qian Jiyun was reassured as he knew that Qian Yiyun could win in a fight against ordinary men.

Hence, he instructed Yan Nuo to buy two horses in town and rushed to return overnight.

“Sister Xue Ling…”

Xue Ling stood at the door and watched her brother leave the inn. She then turned to Xue Ling, hoping to say a few words to her.

However, Xue Ling snorted coldly and returned to the inn with a cold expression.

“Hmph!”

Qian Yiyun raised her eyebrows but did not lower herself to Xue Ling’s level. She was as tired as Xue Ling and went to her room to shower and rest.

The town they were in was situated on higher grounds. It was said that the town was built on high grounds because people were afraid of floods.

Hence, the town was not affected by the recent flood, and everything was peaceful here.

…

Early the next morning, in Qian Yiyun’s room in the inn…

Bam!

Qian Yiyun slammed her palm on the table when she saw that the things she had placed on the table had disappeared.

She was too lazy to move after her bath last night, so she placed all her valuable belongings on the table and only stored the two most important jade pieces.
