Chapter 178: Chapter 178: Bai Xiang Wakes Up

"Suyin?" Bai Xiang said after seeing Bai Xifeng’s face. He chuckled. "I am imagining things again."

Bai Xifeng moved a little bit. She opened her eyes. Her eyes met with Bai Xiang’s eyes. Both of them looked shocked.

’Suyin? No way.’ Bai Xiang’s eyes were widely opened.

"Father?" Bai Xifeng tilted her head.

"You!" Bai Xiang tried to talk but he felt hurt inside his throat and started to cough.

Bai Xifeng quickly poured some water into a glass and let Bai Xiang drink it.

"Father, drink this water." Bai Xifeng helped Bai Xiang to stand up.

Bai Xiang drank the water. His throat felt better. He began to take a good look at the girl... What man? He was confused at the moment.

"Father, are you okay?" Bai Xifeng asked when seeing Bai Xiang looked dazed.

"Xixi?" Bai Xiang spoke the name to make sure that he got the right person.

"Yes, Father." Bai Xifeng smiled as she responded to Bai Xiang.

"Where is it?" Bai Xiang asked for more details.

"Hmm... It is the military camp." Bai Xifeng answered.

"So, why are you here and wearing a man’s clothes?" Bai Xiang wanted some explanation.

"Well..." Bai Xifeng looked away.

"Father? Is it really you?" Bai Tingfeng appeared saving Bai Xifeng from answering those questions.

’Nice, Big Brother.’ Bai Xifeng grinned.

This gesture had been seen by Bai Xiang but he did not say anything about that.

"Hmm.... I am awake. How is everyone?" Bai Xiang referred to the soldiers.

"Father, you don’t need to worry. Everyone is fine." Bai Tingfeng reported.

"Fine, enough with that. Let’s move the topic to your sister, then." Bai Xiang said.

Bai Xifeng who just wanted to sneak out stopped unable to walk out of the room. She turned around, smiling stupidly at her father.

"Father..." Bai Xifeng just smiled.

"Tell me what is going on here." Bai Xiang stated.

Bai Xifeng looked at her big brother. However, Bai Tingfeng looked away, ignoring her plea.

"Bai Xifeng!" Bai Xiang spoke her full name.

"I ran away from home." Bai Xifeng shouted.

"What?" Bai Xiang was surprised. "Why are you running away from home?"

"Father, you don’t know my situation at home after you left me there 12 years ago." Bai Xifeng stated.

She felt she wanted to cry. It must be the original Bai Xifeng’s feeling.

Bai Xiang and Bai Tingfeng went silent after hearing Bai Xifeng’s statement.

"Xixi... Come here." Bai Xiang called Bai Xifeng to come over to him.

Bai Xifeng slowly approached her father and sat beside him on the bed. Bai Xiang rubbed Bai Xifeng’s head.

"Can you tell me everything?" Bai Xiang asked.

"Hmm..." Bai Xifeng nodded.

After that, a long talk between Bai Xifeng and her father. Bai Tingfeng also listened to the story even though he already knew about that.

The more Bai Xiang listened to Bai Xifeng’s story, the more furious he became. If not because of his condition right now, he would fly over to the Capital City to question the involved party. Well, it would happen eventually.

’How dare they do those things to my and Suyin’s daughter?’ Bai Xiang narrowed his eyes. ’I think I will have some talk to His Majesty.’

"Xixi, don’t worry, I will vent your anger later." Bai Xiang patted Bai Xifeng’s hands.

"Before you can do that, you need to take care of your health." Bai Xifeng stopped her father right there.

"Father, it is Xixi who healed you." Bai Tingfeng said.

"You became a pharmacist?" Bai Xiang was surprised to hear about that.

"Not only that, Xixi also knew how to tame the beast." Bai Tingfeng stated.

It was like those skills were really his.

Bai Xiang turned to Bai Xifeng. "Is it true?"

"Hmm..." Bai Xifeng admitted it.

There was no reason for her to be lying to her true family. The family who really loved her.

"That is brilliant. I know my and Suyin’s child would be amazing." Bai Xiang laughed then he ended up coughing.

Bai Xifeng quickly gave some water to her father.

"Father, please take it easy. Don’t restrain your body too much." Bai Tingfeng stated.

"We have talked too much. Father, you need to rest. Big Brother and I will go out first." Bai Xifeng said pulling Bai Tingfeng out of Bai Xiang’s room.

...

Bai Xifeng decided to leave the military camp to meet with her subordinates. Bai Tingfeng wanted someone to follow his precious sister. He was afraid something might happen to her.

However, Bai Xifeng rejected the suggestion. She would be okay. She was not a weakling.

Bai Tingfeng told Bai Xifeng to bring her subordinates to the military camp. Bai Xifeng found the idea was not bad. She nodded and agreed to Bai Tingfeng’s suggestion.

She went to the previous inn where she stayed. Bai Xifeng asked the person at the counter about the people. The person remembered the group of the people.

Bai Xifeng was told by the person that they were not in the room. They were usually leaving in the morning and returning in the evening.

’Hmm... It seems they are working. If they could return in the evening meaning their workplaces are about here. I will walk around to find them. I am free anyway.’ Bai Xifeng thought.

’If you really think that you are free, you should improve your skills. You still have a lot to learn.’ Baishe interrupted her thought.

’Baishe, I want to relax for today. You can shut up.’ Bai Xifeng stated.

Seeing the steamed buns sold at the stall, Bai Xifeng stopped and bought some of them. Her handsome face while eating the steamed buns attracted people to look at her.

They felt that the steamed buns looked delicious, and the people went to the stall to buy the steamed buns. The owner of the steamed buns was confused about what was going on. However, she was happy seeing her steamed bun selling very well today. If this continued, she could pack up and return home earlier.

Bai Xifeng did not know what happened behind her. She kept walking to find her subordinates.

"Lady Xiaohui, please wait. I really want to marry you."

Bai Xifeng’s ears went up when she heard that name.

"Zou Jiang, my sister already told you that she does not like you. And you also have a fiancee. Why do you think my sister can be together with you?"

’Oh, it’s Xiaoqing’s voice. So, that is really them.’ Bai Xifeng said.

Well, it looked like something happened. It was like in the drama. Bai Xifeng decided to watch it first.

"I am willingly breaking the engagement with Cui Qingling." The man with Zou Jiang stated.

A woman who was in her tear came over.

"Zou Jiang, you can not do it to me. My parent entrusts me to you to take care and you already promised me and my parent that you will marry me." A woman cried it out.

This woman must be the woman with Cui Qingling.

Zou Jiang frowned. He did not expect that Cui Qingling would be here.

"Cui Qingling, I never like the arrangements that our parents make. I want to marry Lady Xiaohui here." Zou Jiang stated.

Since there was a woman crying, it attracted a lot of people to watch the situation. People who knew nothing started to look at Yu Xiaohui differently.

"This young lady looks decent. Why do you need to destroy other relationships?"

"Yeah. This pitiful woman is already engaged to this man. You should not come between them."

"You can look for another man."

"If you desire a man, you can find me. I can satisfy you."

Yu Xiaoqing was furious when she heard those people talk like that about her older sister. Her sister was innocent. She did not seduce this man. Zou Jiang who wanted to pester her older sister.

"You..." Yu Xiaoqing wanted to talk but her older sister stopped her. She bit her lips.

"Zou Jiang..." Yu Xiaohui looked at Zao Jiang coldly.

Zao Jiang smiled while he responded to Yu Xiaohui’s call. "Yes, Lady Xiaohui."

"I already told you from the start. I will never get together with you." Yu Xiaohui stated.

"Lady Xiaohui, if you worried about Cui Qingling..." Zou Jiang could not continue sentences.

"It is not because of Lady Cui. I already have a master. I will be with my master." Yu Xiaohui declared.
