Chapter 129 - 127. Chang An II (1/2)

Third person POV

Morning*

While Hong er's entourage was preparing to depart to Chang An, Di Shang gave his farewell to Hong er and Meiyun.

Hong er: ” Once again, thank you for saving Meiyun, I don't know how to properly thank General Di for your kindness.”

Di Shang: ” It is fine. But you can help me with a favor.”

Hong er: ” What is it?”

Di Shang glanced at Meiyun who was standing behind Hong er and grinned.

Di Shang: ” By giving Meiyun to me.”

Hong er: ” Ahahah~ It will be quite hard for me too, General Di. Since Meiyun is a very precious sister of mine.”

Di Shang: ” What a pity.”

Meiyun: ” Ehem! Young Miss, General Di, why are you two talking about my ownership in front of me?”

Hong er: ” Hahaha~ Meiyun is embarrassed.”

Meiyun: ” Of-of course!”

Meiyun pouted and turned her head away. Hong er chuckled because all this time it was her or Huayun that was teased by Meiyun but knowing the tables had turned, she's having too much fun in teasing Meiyun. Di Shang walked towards Meiyun and smiled seeing Meiyun was still ignoring him despite him standing in front of her then a mischievous idea surfaced on his mind. He took her hand in his hand and positioned it in front of his lips, Meiyun flinched when his warm breath brushed over her hand. She peeked at what he was going to do but she didn't expect that he had been staring at her since the very beginning, their eyes were locked with each other. No matter how many times she look at his green eyes, she would always be entranced by it.

Di Shang: ” I will be back for you.”

Di Shang kissed her hand softly and walked away. Meiyun's whole body and mind froze for a second, the time she grasped what had happened, Di Shang had went quite far away. Di Shang was peacefully riding his horse then suddenly a paper smacked his head from behind. He took the paper and saw a few words were written in the paper.

' I will wait for you, have a safe trip.'

Di Shang's eyes instantly softened by the cute and caring letter, he waved the letter up to the air. Meiyun smiled from ear to ear seeing that her letter reached him. He folded the paper and kissed it before he put it in his pocket.

Huayun: ” It is time to go Meiyun.”

Meiyun: ” En.”

Meiyun took a quick look of Di Shang's silhouette one more time then followed Huayun.

They arrived at the capital in the afternoon and they were greeted by people throwing flowers and blessing words to Hong er. Meiyun was quite surprised by the warm welcome since this was the first time she entered the gate with Hong er's entourage.

Meiyun: ” Wasei~ The people here are so welcoming.”

Huayun: ” En, it was like this the whole way.”

Meiyun: ” The whole way?! Even though Young Miss didn't have any title whatsoever and is from foreign country? I really didn't expect we would be welcomed by them.”

Huayun: ” Me too.”
