Chapter 984: Chapter 985 Kneel...

Xiao Changyi’s step paused, and his mind was filled with thoughts of telling An Jing not to come with him. He might not return from this journey, but he also knew An Jing’s personality, and they had both agreed initially, to be together no matter what, to live together and to die together.

"Okay." In the end, Xiao Changyi still agreed, and as he did so, he pulled An Jing into his arms and hugged her tightly.

An Jing laughed, "I’m glad you agreed. If you hadn’t, I would have definitely given you a hard time for daring to leave me behind."

After patting An Jing’s head affectionately, Xiao Changyi finally let go of her and continued to walk swiftly, pulling her along while still saying, "I will never leave you in this lifetime."

"Okay~" An Jing was very happy, yet her eyes reddened. She couldn’t bear to leave her four adorable children behind.

Xiao Changyi was no less attached to their four children, but there was no choice, he had to go. Even if there was no return, he had to go. Su Chengyu was his brother, and he wouldn’t just watch his brother wait for death without doing anything.

An Jing shared the same psychology as Xiao Changyi.

Moon Stepping and Zhuri were waiting at the entrance of Jun Palace. As soon as they strode down the stairs, Xiao Changyi mounted Zhuri, and An Jing mounted Moon Stepping.

"As soon as we find Gong Juechen, we’ll go home to see the children," Xiao Changyi said as he rode briskly, speaking to An Jing.

An Jing, similarly riding Moon Stepping and keeping pace with Xiao Changyi, nodded and replied loudly, "Okay!"

This journey might be one with no return, they had to see their four adorable children no matter what.

The two of them hurried on horseback and arrived at Meng General’s Mansion. Without waiting to be announced, Xiao Changyi and An Jing went straight in to find Gong Juechen, who was in the backyard with Gong Juese, playing with their children.

Meng Lanqing was there too, but not playing with the children. Instead, he sat at a stone table, playing chess with himself.

Presumably out of love for his sister’s house, Gong Juechen was as good to his sister, Gong Juese, as he was to Gong Juese’s son —he would play with the child whenever he had the chance.

"Chú Juechen! Pack your things and come with us to Nanshen!" An Jing burst in shouting for Gong Juechen.

Meng Lanqing, seeing An Jing and Xiao Changyi arrive, immediately stopped playing chess and stood up with the utmost respect.

Gong Juechen was confused, "What are you going to Nanshen for?"

"An epidemic has broken out in Nanshen, and Nanshen City is sealed off. Chengyu has also become infected with the plague. Your medical skills are exceptional. Come with us to see if you can cure this epidemic," An Jing blurted out urgently.

Meng Lanqing’s expression changed drastically with shock.

Gong Juechen froze momentarily, then while still playing with his sister’s child, he spoke casually, "As you know, I don’t save people who aren’t good-looking. My sister and I used to live in Nanshen, and there aren’t many good-looking people there. Although the Crown Prince isn’t ugly, he doesn’t strike me as good-looking either. You’d better find someone else more capable."

An Jing could hardly believe it, "If the epidemic can’t be cured, they’ll have to slaughter the city! There are thousands of civilians in Nanshen. Are you really going to just watch them die? Chengyu is the Crown Prince. If he’s gone, Xiyun will be thrown into chaos, and it will be the civilians of Xiyun who suffer. Moreover, if chaos ensues, being in Xiyun won’t assure you any peaceful days either!"

Gong Juechen still appeared nonchalant, "I’ve never had any aspiration to save the world. I learned medical arts not to save people but just for fun. No matter what you say, I won’t—"

Before Gong Juechen could finish speaking, Xiao Changyi suddenly knelt in front of him. Although he was asking for help, Xiao Changyi’s spine remained straight as a rod, and his presence was even more commanding than those standing.
