C470 (1/2)

If Fringe City was to be used as a military base, naturally, it could not be left to the common people.

When exiting the city, countless refugees were carrying their luggage or walking or hiring carriages. It could be said that they were in a good order, but the slaves could only walk on two legs.

Even the slaves in this city looked like half of the refugees. Many of the young children were unwilling to accept this, but Jiang Yan had done too many shackles and had been unable to escape.

These people had yet to wake up from their stupor.

Before she left, Gu Mingyan was about to bring a group of girls with her. She was sitting in a horse carriage with her partner, while Gu Danyan was sitting across from Lai Xuan with the little girl they had just met.

”Give me your hand, I'll help you clean up.” Gu Liuyan bent his body and stretched out his hand with a smile.

The little girl hurriedly put her two hands in front of her. Gu Mingyan saw that there was some dirt between their nails and there were some bruises on their bodies, so she controlled her temper and tidied them up a little. She pinched her cheeks, ”Alright, if you're hungry, then tell me.”

As if he thought of Qingze, Gu Tinyan always loved these children very much.

Even though Lai Xuan didn't agree with her, she still spoke up after a while in a low voice, ”As a noble princess, do you usually like noisy children like this?”

”As a noble general, you are just a hot-blooded person. Aren't you only allowed to listen to Ai Yan's orders and do nothing?” Gu Liuyan returned the gaze with a cold voice. Seeing that his gaze had turned colder, he raised his hand to cover the girl's eyes. He looked at Lai Xuan with a bit of anger: ”General Lai, don't scare a child.”

Lai Xuan only resentfully withdrew her gaze and turned her head away.

Gu Ming Yan thought this little girl's slave would be scared. Who knew that the little girl would blink her eyes and lightly pull Gu Pingyan's sleeve. She leaned over and said: ”Master, Lord Lai's nails also have some dirt under them.”

In the small carriage, the child's tender voice was too clear. Lai Xuan folded her arms and did not say a single word.

”You're not even afraid of him?” Gu Danyan held the girl in his arms and felt her stiffen. He rubbed her head and said, ”I see him looking fierce. I am scared. You are brave.”

The little girl's face blushed from the praise, she was actually a little embarrassed, ”When others are bullying me, only Master Lai will stop them. Last time … ”He even stealthily gave me a mouthful of sweet food. This is the first time I've eaten something so delicious …”

The child who had yet to grow up still retained some innocence, but Gu Daiyan felt his heart ache.

However, she had a whole new level of respect for this Lei Xuan. She only softened her tone and asked, ”Why are you rejected by Ai Yan? Maybe I can help you?”

”You are nothing more than a man of Eldan.”

”So what? Everyone has their own eyes and noses. After all, we're all just people. If you want to eat, you have to drink. If you want to live, you have to die. Why do you care?” Gu Danyan was also amused by his vulgar words, but she had heard them from Qi Lin, so it was reasonable.

He hadn't thought that a princess of a country would be able to say such a thing.
