The next morning, just like before, Yun Qianqian arrived early and waited for Feng Qi to pack up. The two of them went out together to have breakfast for the first time.

Then the two of them came to the lake together and looked at the scenery which was still the same as before, but they were no longer the same as they were back then.

Feng Qi could see that Yun Qianqian still had her older brother in her heart, just like she had five years ago, and she was worried about the two of them, now they were both eighteen or nineteen years old.

Thinking that she would be leaving in a few days and not knowing when they would meet again, he asked, "Sister Yun, do you have someone you like?"

Yun Qianqian looked at Feng Qi, who was several years younger than her, and nodded embarrassedly.

"Is this person my older brother?" Feng Qi looked at her and asked.

Yun Qianqian's face turned red and she nodded again embarrassedly.

When a girl reaches the age of 15, her family will basically start arranging marriages for her. Girls who are still unmarried at the age of eighteen or nineteen will usually be gossiped about. I guess Sister Yun must have endured a lot over the years, Feng Qi thought to himself.

After dinner yesterday, she already knew how hard Xiao Qianyi had worked over the years. He was promoted from a small soldier to a captain and had never left the border in five years.

"Sister Yun, do you know what big brother feels for you?" Feng Qi continued to ask.

Yun Qianqian looked up with some disappointment, "Sister Qi'er, I don't know."

"Master Xiao is a young hero. He has achieved so much at such a young age. I think he is completely focused on the military camp. I..."

Feng Qi saw that she was a little disappointed at the end, and hurriedly comforted her, "Sister Yun, I think big brother is not indifferent to you, but it may be that he is too slow to express it."

"We will be returning to Beijing in two days. Then I will ask my aunt to test it out?"

Yun Qianqian thought this was a good idea. She couldn't let herself ask him. If he refused directly, she would have no chance of living.

"Sister Qi'er, thank you, but when I think about you leaving soon, I really can't bear to let you go." Yun Qianqian said, holding her hand.

Feng Qi couldn't bear to see her so sad, so she joked, "When you and big brother are really together, will you still miss me?"

Yun Qianqian's face turned red because of what she said, and she said coquettishly, "Sister Qi'er, what nonsense are you talking about!"

"Okay, I was just talking nonsense, okay?" Feng Qi smiled as he looked at her blushing cheeks.

Yun Qianqian saw that she was making fun of herself and was about to hit her, "You keep laughing, I'll hit you if you laugh again."

Suddenly the lakeside was filled with the sounds of the two people laughing and playing.

The two of them walked outside until very late before parting ways. Feng Qi returned to the mansion and came to the front hall. Seeing that only his second uncle and eldest brother were there, he went up to greet them.

When Xiao Zhenhe saw her come back, he hurriedly asked her if she was tired, what she wanted to eat for dinner, and what plans she had for tomorrow. He also asked her to sit down and rest.

Feng Qi was a little confused by this. He turned to look at Xiao Qianyi and asked him to tell him what was going on.

Xiao Qianyi received her pleading gaze, coughed lightly and said, "Second Uncle, you asked so many questions at once, how should Xiaoqi answer?"

Xiao Zhenhe glanced at him, and the meaning was obviously that he wanted you to mind your own business.

"Xiao Qi, your second uncle won't accompany you when you go back this time. That's why I wanted to take you around for the next two days." Xiao Zhenhe said to her.

"Okay, second uncle. Thank you for your help then." Although Feng Qi didn't quite understand, she still agreed.

After dinner, Xiao Qianyi sent her back to the yard and explained the reason to her. It turned out that in order to accompany him back to Beijing, her eldest uncle agreed to let her second uncle accompany her for the next two days. Only then did her second uncle reluctantly agree.

Hearing this, Feng Qi found it funny and touched at the same time that his two uncles valued him so much.

For two consecutive days, either Yun Qianqian came to accompany her or her second uncle stayed with her. Except for sleeping, she had someone to accompany her all the time, so she could be said to have a fulfilling life.

However, no matter how reluctant everyone was, the time for separation had still come. Early in the morning, Yun Qianqian also came to see her off, and her uncle rushed back from the military camp before dawn.

Half an hour later, everyone had packed up and Yun Qianqian said goodbye to her reluctantly at the gate of the Xiao Mansion. The second uncle followed them all the way to the city gate, gave them some more instructions, and then let them leave.

Feng Qi sat in the carriage, lifted the curtain and looked at the city gate that was getting farther and farther away. "I'm back, are you ready?" Feng Qi whispered in his heart.

The General's Mansion

"They should set off today. My darling is finally back," said Old Madam Xiao excitedly.

General Xiao was also happy in his heart, but his tone changed. "Why are you so excited? It will take at least another half a month for you to come back!"

Madam Xiao was suddenly unhappy, “You old man, when you come back obediently, I will tell her that you don’t miss her at all!”

When General Xiao heard her say this, he quickly said, "Oh, I just said it casually. I was afraid you would get too excited. Why did you take it seriously?"

Madam Xiao snorted coldly, too lazy to pay attention to him.

Aunt Shen hurried to smooth things over, "Father, mother, Qi'er is back this time, and it won't be long before she reaches the age of marriage. We have to prepare well for this."

Second aunt Yan also agreed, "Yes, father and mother, Qi'er's coming-of-age ceremony cannot be sloppy. There is still more than a month left, we must prepare in advance."

Xiao Qianqian, who was standing aside, felt very uncomfortable. No one had taken her coming-of-age ceremony so seriously, although it was very grand. But she felt uncomfortable when she saw everyone paying so much attention to Feng Qi.

When Mr. and Mrs. Xiao heard them talking about this, they both nodded in agreement and discussed how to give Feng Qi a surprise.

Xuanwangfu Qiwuyuan

Si Xuan stood under the phoenix tree, looking at the courtyard where Feng Qi lived, thinking about the news he received a few days ago. He knew that the person he was thinking about was on the way back. Thinking that they would meet soon, he felt a little uneasy.

After five years of not seeing each other, I wonder what the little girl looks like now, and I wonder if she still remembers me...

Si Xuan's thoughts drifted far away. He still remembered that when he first met Feng Qi, she was still a little kid of two or three years old. At that time, his mother had just passed away and he was taken to the Feng Mansion.

At that time, he was sitting alone on the steps, feeling sad about the death of his mother. Suddenly, a little ball came to him, holding a piece of candy in his soft little hands and handed it to him.

The little girl stared at him with her big eyes and shouted, "Brother, have some candy." Her grape-like eyes seemed to be filled with stars, sparkling. Then the little girl stretched out her hands and shouted, "Brother, give me a hug."

The second time I saw her was when the Feng family was being exterminated. When I saved her from the butcher's knife, her eyes were filled with fear, sadness, and despair...

That look made him feel distressed, and he made up his mind at that time to protect her and make her life smooth...
