……

Looking at the white fox before him, he thought of the immense difficulties he faced with Diao Chan.

Lü Bu sighed inwardly and slowly returned to the hall. He noticed that Wang Yun had a slight sweat on his forehead and found it strange.

Why is my father-in-law sweating?

Wang Yun took a sip of tea and forced a smile, saying, "It's very hot in the general's room."

He had been waiting anxiously, and when he saw Lü Bu return, he hurriedly asked what had happened.

"Father-in-law, don't worry, this is a good thing."

Wang Yun: "???"

Lu Bu then said, "We were just discussing how I could enter the back garden of Dong Yuan's residence without arousing the Grand Tutor's suspicion."

"It just so happens that Zichuan asked me to deliver this fox to Lord Weiyang, something I had promised him before, so this is a convenient opportunity."

Wang Yun was relieved and discussed the matter with Lü Bu before taking his leave.

……

The following day, Wang Yun followed the plan and, in the name of the emperor, summoned Dong Zhuo to discuss matters of state.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lü Bu carried "Little White" into the back garden of Dong's mansion to find Dong Bai.

When Dong Bai saw him coming, she greeted him with a charming smile.

"I heard that my uncle has been arguing with my grandfather recently and hasn't spoken to him for several days."

It should have been done a long time ago!

These days, all that's on my mind is spending time with that wicked woman; I don't know what's so good about it.

"Wait until you, me, and Zichuan, we all ignore Grandpa and he'll get what's coming to him."

As she spoke, she tilted her head slightly and saw the bamboo cage that Lü Bu was carrying. How could she not exclaim in surprise?

"Oh, what an adorable little fox! Did you catch it while hunting, Uncle?"

Lu Bu was anxious about Diao Chan's matter and didn't know when Dong Zhuo would return, so he really had no mind to talk to her anymore.

He then handed her the bamboo cage, saying, "This is a return gift from Zichuan. He's already named it 'Xiaobai'."

Dong Bai: "Eh???"

A blush spread across her slightly upturned face, and her bright, sparkling eyes darted about, conveying both joy and anger as she murmured softly.

"This...it...it can't call me that! I want 'Zichuan' to scratch him!"

Lu Bu left Zichuan's "Little White" and handed it over to Little White who was holding "Zichuan". He couldn't stand the "couple" anymore, so he left in a huff and went straight to find Diaochan.

At that time, Diaochan was admiring the flowers by the Phoenix Pavilion, standing gracefully beside the winding railing, truly like a fairy from the moon palace.

Lu Bu strode forward, about to speak, when Diao Chan saw him and thought to herself:

"Before entering the Dong family, my godfather repeatedly told me that I must not let Yu Zichuan find out about this plan. He would also do his best to cooperate with me outside. There is no time to lose. He hoped that I would complete it quickly."

Unexpectedly, Lü Bu did not come to see me for a long time for some reason, leaving me waiting in the mansion in vain with no way to help him.

Yesterday, Dong Zhuo mentioned Yu Zichuan and even asked me what I had said. It was clear that the plan had been delayed for too long and had alerted Yu Zichuan.

Even if I cleverly deceive Dong Zhuo for a time, I fear it will not last long.

Today, Lü Bu has acted out of character by coming to my residence to see me. Perhaps it is because my adoptive father has learned of this and is plotting something outside.

If that's the case, my adoptive father must have further plans. I absolutely cannot hesitate; I must act swiftly and bewitch Lü Bu!

Thinking of this, before Lü Bu could even approach, Diao Chan burst into tears, sobbing as she said to him:

"To be able to see the general again today, my lifelong wish is fulfilled, and I have no regrets even if I die."

That night I met the general, and he promised to serve me. My life's wish was fulfilled.

Who would have thought that the Grand Tutor would harbor such evil intentions and defile me? I was filled with resentment and wished I could die immediately. However, since I had not yet said goodbye to the General, I endured the humiliation and clung to life.

Today I have finally met the General, and my heart's desire has been fulfilled.

My body is now defiled; I can no longer serve heroes. I wish to die before you, to prove my resolve!

After saying this, she grabbed the railing, looked at the lotus pond, and jumped in.

Lu Bu had come intending to question him, but before he could even speak, he saw this scene and panicked, rushing forward to embrace him.

He was extremely annoyed and his anger had subsided considerably. The questions that were about to be asked stuck in his throat. He hesitated for a long time before finally asking.

"I heard people say that you... had already given your heart to the Grand Tutor, and that it was I who forced you and your daughter that night to give it to me, not because you truly loved me."

Is this really true?

Diao Chan, of course, could not admit it and hurriedly cried out.

"I have never said such a thing."

The Grand Tutor is old and frail, while the General is a peerless hero. I am not blind, so why would I waste my youthful years serving a man who is already fifty?

Who in Chang'an doesn't know of the Grand Tutor's cruelty? How could I possibly tell him that I have feelings for the General?

Moreover, in this Dong family, who isn't a member of the Grand Tutor's faction? Even if I have something to say, I can only keep it to myself. To the outside world, isn't it up to the Grand Tutor to say whatever he wants?

Although I am not afraid of death, I am afraid that I will never see the general again in this life, and I am even more afraid that I will implicate the general because of this.

Now that I have been defiled by him, I am already beyond saving. Now, I am even more suspected by the general. I would rather be dead than alive.

General, please do not stop me. I only wish for a swift death to prove my resolve.

As she spoke, she struggled to jump into the lotus pond again!

Lu Bu, however, felt as if the clouds had parted and the moon was shining brightly, and suddenly realized the truth.

"yes!

Let alone Diao Chan, even I myself, how could I not fear Dong Zhuo's tyranny and fawn upon him?

Moreover, Diao Chan was in Dong Zhuo's hands, isolated from the outside world. Whatever he wanted her to say to others came from Dong Zhuo's mouth.

That makes sense, that makes sense!

Having figured out the key to this matter and understood Diao Chan's feelings, Lü Bu was unwilling to let her go. He held her tightly, his tiger-like eyes filled with tears.

"I have longed for you for so long! I only regret that we cannot speak together!"

Diao Chan grabbed Lü Bu and struggled fiercely.

"Having been defiled, I only wish for a swift death!"

Lü Bu then said bitterly, "If I cannot have you as my wife in this life, I am no hero!"

……

Meanwhile, Wang Yun, who was not genuinely trying to get rid of Dong Zhuo for Lü Bu, only discussed one or two matters of state before saying, "All matters are settled. I will trouble you, Grand Tutor."

Dong Zhuo: "..."

"Although he wanted to tell Wang Yun not to call him over such trivial matters next time, he also knew that Wang Yun dared not delay important state affairs and would not blame him for it."

Without saying anything more, he took his leave of the emperor and returned to his residence to find Diao Chan.

Upon arriving at the gate of Dong's residence, he saw Red Hare tethered there, indicating that Lü Bu had arrived.

"It must be that Zichuan informed Fengxian about yesterday's rewards in advance. He must be here to thank me for my kindness."

Dong Zhuo then asked the gatekeeper about Lü Bu's whereabouts, only to find out that Lü Bu was not waiting for him in the study, but had instead gone to the back garden.

Dong Zhuo immediately became suspicious and went straight to the back garden to look for Lü Bu. Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the Phoenix Pavilion, he saw Lü Bu and Diao Chan embracing each other.

Diao Chan wept bitterly, her tears falling like raindrops, struggling desperately in Lü Bu's arms. One could faintly hear her sobbing, "Having been defiled, I only wish for a swift death!"

Lu Bu replied, "If I cannot have you as my wife in this life, I am no hero!"

Dong Zhuo: "!!!"

"You unfilial son! How dare you defile my beloved concubine while I was away?"

Dong Zhuo flew into a rage and roared, "You rebellious son, how dare you!"

Upon hearing this sudden shout, Lü Bu turned around and saw Dong Zhuo. He was so frightened that his soul almost left his body, and he turned and ran away.

Dong Zhuo wanted to give chase, but because he had been out of martial arts practice for a long time and had become obese, he could not catch up with him.

He then drew his long sword from his waist and threw it at Lü Bu, who hurriedly dodged it.

When Dong Zhuo was about to give chase, Lü Bu encountered Dong Bai playing with "Xiao Bai" and "Zi Chuan" in the garden along the way, and hurriedly called out to him:

"Little White, help me!"

Dong Bai: "???"
