Chapter 322: Rumours (1) (1/2)

Gao Zhangwei had been standing next to Sima Hui the entire time, his face hidden in the shadows, causing his expression to look a little contorted. His sinister gaze landed on He Changdi’s back. His heart was full of dissatisfaction. That handsome young man had really turned out to be that beardy Captain He!

He Changdi followed Captain Guo and the rest back to camp. The moment they reached their tent, Xiao Hongyu could no longer hold back his curiosity. He stood right in front of He Changdi and stared dead on at He Changdi’s face. Then, he chuckled boorishly and said, “Brother He, I finally realised why you like to keep your face covered with that beard.”

Off to the side, Zhang Mai picked up a cup of tea and took a sip with an understanding smile.

He Changdi cast a cold glance at Xiao Hongyu. He had zero desire to hear whatever Xiao Hongyu had to say next.

“Ahhhh! Even though our Brother He was so cold to her, that lady was still throwing herself into his arms! Brother He, how did you grow to look like that? Aunt He really knows how to make ’em! Why couldn’t my old mom do the same?”

Captain Guo snorted in laughter. “Brat, looking like that, you should be content that your mom even brought you into this world!”

Xiao Hongyu cried out in anguish and continued staring at He Changdi’s face.

He Sanlang shot a sideways look at him. “What are you staring at me for?”

“To see if I can grow a face like that.”

Zhang Mai smiled. “Brat, it’s time to stop daydreaming!”

Xiao Hongyu thumped his chest and stomped his foot. However, after just two seconds, his eyes began to shine like a thief’s again. “Hey! Brother Guo, Brother Zhang, did you see just now? General Sima was looking at Brother He differently. Brother He has got some luck with women!”

Captain Guo harrumphed. He gave a friendly reminder, “Zixiang, I heard that your wife has already settled down in Liangzhou City.”
