Volume 4 Chapter 9: Don’t tell me this is Meng De’s letter

“Big brother, a report just came in that little sister is back.”

“Ah, I heard it just now too.” I said as I dealt with the pile of doc.u.ments I had to deal with.

Really, ever since the Xu state 3 left, the backlog of administrative work is giving me a greater headache than the threat of Meng De.

“Won’t big brother go and welcome her?” Yun Chang asked as she looked outside.

The city seems to be noisier today than it usually is.

“I don’t think there’s a need to. Since it’s Yi De, she’ll probably come running over excitedly the moment she returns.” I said as I threw down a scroll in frustration, “If we go and welcome her, we might miss each other and that might disappoint Yi De who will probably want to see us as soon as possible.”

“Big brother~~~” Just then, Yi De’s voice could be heard from afar.

See. I said to Yun Chang with me eyes, who only smiled in response.

Alright, I just hope that Yi De hasn’t hurt Liu Dai too badly.

I got up first and Yun Chang followed. Just as I was about to step through the door, a tiny shadow leapt in through the door.

“Big brother, I’m back!~~~~” Before I could even confirm who the shadow belonged to, I was knocked to the ground by its force.

Of course, I don’t even need to look to know who it is.

“Welcome back, Yi De.” I said as I rubbed her head.

“Un!!” She squealed as she hugged me even tighter.

Yun Chang walked over with a smile and sighed as she put her hands on her hips, “Little sister, how did it go with Liu Dai?”

“Keke,” She got up and twirled before showing Yun Chang a ‘V’ sign, “It was a great success of course.”

Thereafter she gestured to soldiers outside who brought in a man. I’ve never seen him before but I’m sure this is Liu Dai.

Oh~~~

“What do you think? I’m great aren’t I~~” Yi De smiled widely as she put her hands on her hips.

Liu Dai did not seem to be injured at all apart from looking a little exhausted… This was something truly unexpected.

“Oi oi,” Just like with w.a.n.g Zhong, I shook him by the shoulders, “Wake up.”

“Ah… Ah. You must be Liu Bei. I lost magnificently.” He said as he nodded before lowering his head lifelessly as he continued, “I really am unlucky to have met with an opponent with both brain and brawn.”

…

Eh?

I and Yun Chang gasped at the same time and looked at each other in disbelief.

I can understand brawn, but brain?
