"Fu Qing, Fu Qing, you've actually started to care about people now."
He paused, then smiled and said, "I hope you can seize this opportunity and win over the Six Emperors. At that time..."
Before he could finish speaking, a figure strode in through the door.
With light steps, the fox ears swayed gently above its head, and its tail swayed behind it.
She walked behind Jingyuan, reached out and patted his shoulder with a light touch, carrying a familiar intimacy.
"Little Lion, you haven't changed at all! Your hair is still as thick as before!"
Her voice carried a teasing tone, just like it had many years ago.
Jing Yuan was stunned.
He turned around and looked at the person in front of him.
Bai Heng stood before him, his fox ears standing straight up, his eyes curved into crescents, and a smile on his lips, the same smile as back then.
She looked him up and down carefully again, her gaze moving from his face to his shoulders, from his shoulders to his waist, from his waist to his feet, and then back to his face, before patting his shoulder again.
"He's grown quite a bit taller, tall enough to support the entire immortal ship!"
Her voice was soft, and her tone was as if she were talking about something very proud.
Jing Yuan stared at her, somewhat dazed.
The light shone on his face, making his eyes shine.
His lips moved, and his eyes suddenly became moist.
She hasn't changed at all. She still teases him about his thick hair, and her teasing words still subtly reveal her concern for him.
Bai Heng is the sunshine and glue among the five, able to make the aloof Jing Liu smile, relax the cold Dan Feng, and put the sensitive Ying Xing at ease.
They would treat him like a child, protect him, and give him candy and kebabs.
He couldn't remember the taste of the candy and agar jelly skewers from back then, but he still remembered the feeling of being protected.
He took a deep breath, then another.
His Adam's apple bobbed up and down, forcefully suppressing the emotions that were welling up inside him.
The corners of her mouth curved slightly, a small curve, but very genuine.
"Sister Bai Heng, it's been a long time."
The sound was very soft, as if afraid of disturbing something.
Bai Heng looked at him and smiled.
That smile is the same as in the photo, just like it was many years ago.
She reached out and patted Jingyuan's head as she always had, then put her hand down.
"Little lion, you've grown up."
She paused, and her voice softened.
"You've grown so much."
Jing Yuan paused for a moment, then smiled.
"I'm getting old."
"Even when he's old, he'll still be a little lion."
Chapter 156 What kind of situation is this?
The dim lighting in the corridor cast long shadows of the group.
Lin Si and the other five huddled at the door of Jing Yuan's study, holding their breath and peeking through the half-open doorway to see what was happening inside.
Su Chang was lying at the front, her eyes pressed against the crack in the door, her mouth open, her eyes red, almost moved to tears.
"Waaaa, how touching! After so many years, what is the general thinking as he sees his best comrade-in-arms again?"
Her voice was very low, so low that only those around her could hear it, but the emotion in her tone was impossible to suppress.
Yanqing stood behind her, arms crossed, lost in thought.
He didn't look through the crack in the door; he didn't need to. He could sense what was happening inside. He was thinking about something.
Senior Bai Heng is a comrade-in-arms of the general, so his combat strength must be quite high.
If only I could spar with Senior Bai Heng...
His eyes lit up, like a lamp suddenly lit in the night sky.
Yun Li and Qing Que stood a little further back, whispering to each other.
There was a gossipy glint in Qingque's eyes, and the corners of her mouth were curved up, as if she had discovered some incredible secret.
"Hiss! This scene is like a long-lost white moonlight suddenly returning, and the general finally finding peace at this moment?"
Qingque's voice was very low, but the excitement in her tone was impossible to hide.
Yun Li turned her head away, somewhat puzzled.
"Qingque, what does 'white moonlight' mean?"
Qingque's eyes darted around, and she coughed lightly.
"Yun Li, if you haven't seen us for many years, what will you think when you meet again?"
Yun Li looked at everyone present.
Su Chang peeked through the crack in the door, Yan Qing seemed lost in thought, Qing Que had a gossipy face, Bai Lu tiptoed, and Lin Si sat in a wheelchair.
She thought for a long time, and then answered seriously.
"It's been so many years since we last met. I'm sure everyone's skills have improved. It's only natural that we should have a friendly spar!"
Yanqing's eyes lit up when he heard this.
He had never acknowledged Yun Li as much as he did at this moment!
He secretly gave Yun Li a thumbs-up, the movement so light it was as if he were doing something shameful.
Yun Li didn't see it.
But Qingque saw it, she put one hand to her forehead and sighed.
"I shouldn't have talked to you two about this!"
Lin Si was chatting with Bai Lu.
Bai Lu tiptoed and peered through the crack in the door, but she was too small to see clearly, and she jumped up and down in a panic.
Lin Si picked her up and placed her on her lap, and Bai Lu then contentedly peered through the crack in the door to continue watching.
She muttered to herself as she looked at the book, her tone tinged with smugness.
"Little Lin Si, you don't know, the General was incredibly capable back then!"
"Oh? How so?"
Lin Siwen.
Bai Lu's eyes lit up, and she lowered her voice slightly.
"The general shielded me behind him and, facing the Dragon Master, said one thing!"
"What did you say?"
Bai Lu stood with her hands on her hips, chin slightly raised, looking serious as she imitated the general's demeanor and tone of voice.
"I'm taking her away today, let's see who dares to stop me!"
"Sigh~"
Lin Si gasped.
This time, the general surprisingly changed his usual "weighing" approach and directly confronted the Dragon Master.
It should be understood that even if the Dragon Master made a mistake, he would not easily agree to forcibly take away Bai Lu, the current Dragon Lord.
They will accept judgment for their mistakes, but Bai Lu, the young Dragon Lord, is their bottom line.
Furthermore, Long Shi wanted to seize power and stage a coup, but he couldn't easily take action against Bai Lu. If he did, it would mean that he had made thorough preparations or had been forced to take action.
Because the status of the Chiming Clan plummeted after the Drinking Moon Rebellion, it has remained so until now, and their current public image is entirely supported by Lady Bailu.
Even if they may have ill intentions towards Lady Bailu, she is still their "lifeline" at this moment.
"General, you're quite something!"
Bai Lu looked smug, as if she were the one who had done all this.
Lin Si nodded.
"Indeed impressive!"
The group then began to whisper among themselves again.
After a long while, Lin Si looked at everyone and then looked back at the scene through the crack in the door.
Bai Heng sat in a chair, while Jing Yuan leaned against the desk. The two faced each other, talking about something. Bai Heng smiled, his eyes crinkling, and Jing Yuan's lips also curved upwards.
He sighed and said in a low voice.
"Everyone, let's head to the Ten Kings' Division before it gets too late!"
The crowd looked at him, then looked back at the crack in the door.
The meaning of "Heroic Spirit Listening to Lin Si" is that it can be summoned at any time.
But the gossip about the general won't be so easy to see after tonight.
"Lin Si".
Su Chang spoke, her voice tinged with reluctance.
"Wait a little longer, just a little while..."
"Yes, Xiaolin Si,"
Bai Lu also chimed in.
"I'd like to see more gossip about the General when he was young!"
Lin Si looked at them, remained silent for a moment, and then sighed.
"Okay. Let's wait a little longer."
Everyone quickly scurried back through the crack in the door.
Su Chang was at the front, and Yan Qing was behind her. He didn't peek through the crack in the door, but his ears were perked up higher than usual.
Yunli and Qingque started whispering again, with Qingque saying, "Are all you swordsmen like this?"
Yun Li said, "What?"
"His mind is filled with nothing but swords."
Yun Li thought for a moment, then nodded seriously.
"almost".
Qingque sighed again.
Bai Lu sat on Lin Si's lap, her eyes pressed against the crack in the door, occasionally letting out exclamations of "Oh!", "Hiss~", and "Wow!"
Lin Si leaned back in her wheelchair, tapping her fingers lightly on the armrest twice.
Just then, a voice came from not far away.
What are you doing here?
Everyone was startled.
Su Chang almost jumped off the door. Yan Qing's hand loosened and then gripped the sword hilt. Yun Li and Qing Que's discussion came to an abrupt end. Bai Lu slid off Lin Si's lap and hid behind the wheelchair.
Lin Si raised an eyebrow, and breathed a sigh of relief after seeing who it was. She quickly put her finger to her lips.
"Sister Qingjia, shh!"
