Vol 7 Chapter 33 (2/2)

“I really didn’t have a choice.”

I’m not the one to be blamed for this.

“Zi Zhong and the rest have been dragging me around these few days to see the geography of the place, walk the streets and other such things. It feels like I’m trying to run for an election.”

“Run for an election?”

“Ah… Never mind.”

I accidentally used a future phrase. Officials in this era don’t need to be very accountable to their people here.

“In that case, then that can’t be helped.” Yun Chang was still unhappy but she turned her face away with a frown and didn’t say anything further.

“My lord doesn’t know but mother misses my lord very much recently.” Just then, Guan Ping’s face suddenly appeared directly in front of me as she said so, scaring me with her anger-filled eyes.

“Missing me huh…”

“Ah! Guan Ping! Don’t spout nonsense!”

“Mother has been missing you so much that she hardly drinks, eats or sleeps!” Guan Ping ignored Yun Chang’s protests and continued.

“She sometimes complains about how my lord is unfair and biased. About how he forgot his little sisters from the start. She even says that the Xu state 3 are taking advantage of official matters to advance their personal goals. Something about using the opportunity to ripen– Wu!”

“Stop saying anymore! And stop calling me mother! Call me sister, will you!”

I was listening closely, but Yun Chang couldn’t take it and shut Guan Ping up.

Was it that serious? I thought as I looked at Yun Chang who turned red instantly when she saw me looking at her.

“Don’t listen to her nonsense, big brother! I never said those things! They’re all lies. I, Guan Yu, have always placed the big picture before my personal feelings…”

Should I say, as expected of Guan Yu Guan Yun Chang? But honestly, I have felt that I have been neglecting Yun Chang, and Yi De who is still suffering from amnesia.

I feel like I’ve grown distant from them ever since Yi De lost her memories.

Excuses. I know, I ought to have taken some time out these few days to go over to the encampment and pay them a visit,

But before that, I might as well take action now.

“Yun Chang, Guan Ping, pack up. We’ll be leaving in a while.”

“Eh? Big brother?” Yun Chang was surprised as she looked at me. I just nodded like always and smiled.

“… Un!” Only at times like these, Yun Chang smiles so brightly and innocently that she’s like a kid.

“Only at times like these will mother give this sort of smile. Mother is always so fierce and uptight,”

“H, how am I fierce? I’m much better than Lord Lu Bu, alright?”

She really likes to use Feng Xian that way huh… But whatever the case, I should spend more time with my close companions while I can before the events with Liu Biao begin. These are my true family after all.

*Dang* *Dang* *Dang*

Just then, several knocks could be heard on the wooden door. I thought it was Yi Ji again, but that person called out first.

“I am Liu Biao’s eldest daughter, Liu Qi, and I am here to pay a visit to uncle!”
