He laughed until tears almost came out before he would stop
He tilted his head, notover his face
Ran Min sall” He paused before adding: “And quite the ruthless heart!”
Chen Rong did not answer hiether as her tears trickled down
Ran Min laughed when he saw her appearance: “Hah, you’re ruthlessly scherievous look I’ still wouldn’t raise her head although her face was growing paler and paler
Ran Min lifted his wine and threw his head back for a swig When he next placed the cup down, he said, “It’s a deal”
Only now did Chen Rong look up at hirievance in her eyes, as if she was miffed that he had called her ruthless
She lowered her head again to accord Ran Min cere down
Ran Min laced his palether as he shouted, “One of you come in here”
“Aye”
An advisor ca and ordered: “Tell hi rose, dropped to another curtsy, and described the route in detail while the advisor laid out his paper
Although the route was fro and hard about it on the way here and tried to re it over and over in her mind Her description was thus very articulate and clear
In just moments, the advisor put away the silk parchment and said to Ran Min: “I have it down”
Ran Min nodded and then waved his hand to dismiss him
Footsteps were heard outside at this time
“General, it’s ti at once curtsied and disone, an advisor walked in and, looking at Ran Min, sly said, “You should have seized the opportunity to be eneral”
Ran Min stood up to let the soldiers help him put his ar: “She’s very normal around me this tihter Ran Min did not join the had gone and said, “Her tehed: “Like yours, general? I find that difficult to believe” The nobility of this era was a mild breed, and it was funny to hear a fiercesome Ran Min say a noblewo for Chen Rong when she stepped out She had been at Chen Rong’s side, but when Chen Rong and Ran Min began talking, Ran Min had waved his hand to dis didn’t want to reveal the sche
She stepped up to greet hera careful look at her, couldn’t stop herself fros?” Her eyes were filled with hope
Chen Rong s lowered her voice: “Then, did he e?
Chen Rong shook her head and distractedly looked at the tents ahead Moht Ran Min would be disappointed with how selfish and cruel she was, and would not be interested in her anye!
Unexpectedly, Ran Min had agreed and even laughed at her request She had tried and tried to put her best foot forward in the past yet she had always been cast aside Why was she receiving his appreciation now that she was showing her true self and no longer needing it?
Chen Rong couldn’t find an answer to this question, or did she want to She strode to the front as she shook her head
Nurse Ping followed behind In a few steps, she again asked, “Miss, did the general say anything else? Such as your uncle’s er objects to yourher head when she lightly said, “Do you think someone like Ran Min would care about what the clan thinks?”
The nurse was thus silenced
Chen Rong had gotten to her tent She bent down and went in

Four days passed in the blink of an eye
At noon on one day, Nurse Ping hurried after Chen Rong when she saw her step out “Miss” She glanced at the tent and whispered, “What did General Ran say?”
Just now, Ran Min had called Chen Rong to his tent again and told her nurse to leave
Yet again, Chen Rong shook her head and softly replied, “He did not speak toblankly s could see this, too “Then what did he call you for?”
Chen Rong again shook her head
She was just sitting next to hiinning to end, he hadn’t had any time to spare her
Odd, did Ran Min call her to his tent just so she could watch hi’s puzzle
Docilely sitting in a corner, she watched the fluttering curtain in front of her and recalled that there had been none at noon
She looked at it for a while until she saw the last advisor leave and only Ran Min was left “General”
Ran Min was flipping through his silkhis head: “Get to the point”
Chen Rong knew his personality well enough to quickly say: “I don’t knohy you’ve called me here, and even placed a screen in front of me like this”
Ran Min still didn’t look up He o indistracted”
Chen Rong bit her lips and then staood while: “Then what have you… sueneral?”
He placed his brush aside, leaned back, ed his temples and tiredly said, “I can’t call for you without a reason?”
What?
Chen Rong’s ht in befuddlement: If you don’t have any reason to, then of course you can’t call forRan Min, however, he would be irritable when he was tired, so she didn’t ask anymore
At this time, two soldiers welcomed in a thin and feeble scholar of about 30 to 40 years old
He eating profusely, his face was smeared in dust, and his lips were chapped and dry
He sat down and then a for Ran Min to speak
Ran Min raised his head
He glanced at the wine in front of the scholar, then looked down and continued to write so that he was unspeaking, the intimidated scholar sweated even more profusely He licked his chapped lips and didn’t dare to htest , Ran Min soon finished a paragraph He placed the brush down and looked up, at which point his brow furrowed into a glower
The scholar broke into cold sweat and shrank back, al’s voice sounded at this tiood sir, why don’t you have a drink if your mouth is dry? Why don’t you wipe your face if your are perspiring?”
The scholar halted, realizing that Ran Min was annoyed at him for this He aardly lifted the wine for a drink, wiped his sweat, and lastly sat back down
Chen Rong shook her head and again said, “If you have so to report, then do say it, sir General Ran is a busyfirst”
“Aye, aye, aye”
The scholar finally realized why the general seeot up, placed his palether, and said to Ran Min, “General, we’ve taken twenty grain carriages froes of fine silk The records are here” He then took a piece of parchment out fro to the back: “Give it to her”
The scholar did as told and walked over to Chen Rong
Chen Rong was too stunned to speak Some time later, she wryly s the information on it
Afterwards, Ran Min waved his hand to dismiss the scholar
Before she knew it, only Ran Min and her were left in the tent
In thebrushwork, Ran Min suddenly asked, “Missy, now do you knohy I’ve called you here?”
Chen Rong looked at hied after a while
