Ye Qichi picked up her cup with great gusto, "Good."

"I am grateful to Miss Ye for saving my daughter’s life, and for saving the lives of the people of Yuzhou City. Without Miss Ye, I truly do not know what Yuzhou City would have become, perhaps a living hell, with white bones scattered everywhere."

Ye Qichi smiled and did not modestly deny her own merits.

"I shall drink first as a token of my respect!" Pang Nan exclaimed excitedly and downed his cup in one gulp.

Ye Qichi, holding her cup, did not refuse another round and also downed it in one gulp.

She said, "Pang, sir, after we leave, Yuzhou City will be in your hands. Do not let down the Emperor, do not let down the Prince, do not let down the people, and be a good official."

After Yuan Wenkang went to deliver the message, he brought back an imperial decree.

Pang Nan was appointed Military Governor of Yuzhou City.

Hearing Ye Qichi say this, Pang Nan grew even more emotional, his eyes reddened, and his voice choked up as he said firmly, "I shall obey the order!"

Ye Qichi smiled, "Pang, sir, please sit back down, there’s no need for excessive formality tonight."

Pang Nan managed to contain his emotions and returned to his spot.

Everyone then resumed eating the dinner at ease.

At the banquet, Xiao Jinxing and Ye Qichi naturally occupied the seats of honor.

To the left sat Bai Mowan, and to the right was Pang Nan.

Only after them were the seats of Xiao Wu, Yuan Wenkang, and Gu Xingchuan.

After Pang Nan took the initiative to toast, Bai Mowan kept glancing at Ye Qichi inadvertently.

The unceremonious manner of Ye Qichi truly made her take a new measure of this woman.

She even felt that Ye Qichi was even less bound by the traditional etiquettes of the boudoir.

The current Ye Qichi truly harbors great aspirations and cares deeply for the populace!

Her heart felt an indescribable tenderness.

As a result, Bai Mowan’s mood remained low throughout the dinner.

Fortunately, they would be setting off on the journey tomorrow, so the dinner did not last long.

It ended quickly.

After the dinner, Bai Mowan naturally followed Xiao Jinxing as he left.

Tomorrow, they would part ways again.

Bai Mowan felt reluctant to leave.

The two of them deliberately lingered and walked in the courtyard a bit longer.

"Jinxing brother, we will part ways tomorrow," Bai Mowan spoke with a tinge of distress.

Xiao Jinxing responded with a sound.

He too felt an undercurrent of suppressed emotion.

"Will you... miss me?" Bai Mowan stopped in her tracks and looked up at him.

Xiao Jinxing, following Bai Mowan’s action, also came to a halt.

He gazed at Bai Mowan.

Eye to eye, they exchanged tender glances.

Ye Qichi and Gu Xingchuan were about to return to their room.

They naturally had no parting sorrow, but still paused when they saw two silhouettes from a distance.

They felt it inappropriate to disturb them at this moment.

But their path was admittedly blocked by them.

Ye Qichi felt somewhat torn.

Gu Xingchuan calmly waited for Ye Qichi’s reaction.

He was curious... how Ye Qichi would react.

"Jinxing brother." Bai Mowan reached out her hand willingly.

Xiao Jinxing’s fingers twitched slightly.

In the palm of his hand, he felt the warmth coming from Bai Mowan’s palm.

Bai Mowan’s palm, unlike other women, and even unlike Ye Qichi’s, was different.

Ye Qichi’s skin was very soft and smooth.

But Bai Mowan’s palm had some calluses.

They were from years of martial arts practice.

At that moment, Xiao Jinxing couldn’t help but feel a twinge of heartache.

He couldn’t resist stroking her palm gently.

Bai Mowan naturally felt Xiao Jinxing’s gesture, her cheeks flushing, "Do you mind, Jinxing brother?"

Men usually would mind a woman’s skin texture.

But she was very clear Xiao Jinxing would not.

"No," Xiao Jinxing affirmed firmly.

Feeling reassured by the confirmation she had expected, her heart still fluttered.

She recalled Xiao Jinsen from her past life who claimed to love her but repulsed her body to the extreme.

It wasn’t just the calluses on her palm.

She bore many scars from battle on her body, all sustained while helping Xiao Jinsen lay claim to his reign, yet when she returned victorious to see Xiao Jinsen, he held another woman in his arms, repulsed by her bloodstained self...

Fortunately.

In this new life.

She will ensure a debt of blood is paid in blood.

She stood on her tiptoes.

Her lips inched towards Xiao Jinxing’s.

In this life.

She will never misplace her love again.

Xiao Jinxing’s eyes flicked.

Watching Bai Mowan’s small, rosy lips approach him.

The deep affection in her eyes was unmistakable.

At that moment, his Adam’s apple unconsciously bobbed.

The heart-stir within him focused all his attention on Bai Mowan’s lips.

But just as they were about to touch him.

He subtly, avoided her advance.

A sudden pain struck Bai Mowan’s heart.

The disappointment in her eyes was evident.

Xiao Jinxing, too, saw it, and with a restrained voice said, "I don’t want to wrong you."

Bai Mowan still gazed at him.

"When I take you as my wife," Xiao Jinxing promised.

Bai Mowan bit her lip lightly.

Was it she who was too eager?!

Xiao Jinxing clearly could not bear to see Bai Mowan distressed.

He extended his hand, drawing her into his embrace.

Bai Mowan, caught off guard, found herself in a warm, strong embrace and her heart grew warmer.

She knew it.

Xiao Jinxing was not rejecting her.

It was just that.

He truly didn’t want to wrong her.

"I will wait for you," Bai Mowan’s face buried against Xiao Jinxing’s chest.

Listening to his even and steady heartbeat.

"Mm," Xiao Jinxing nodded.

His gaze watched as two figures departed before him.

In that moment, he unconsciously held Bai Mowan even tighter!
