"What?" Fan Liuer jumped up from her chair, staring at Li Chenbi with disbelief.

"You want me to disguise myself as your servant and follow you all the way north?"

Fan Liuer suspected that Li Chenbi had gone mad to say such crazy things.

Li Chenbi reached out and pulled her back to her chair before speaking, "Every time you leave my sight, something bad happens. I don't want to live in fear anymore. I only feel at ease when you're by my side."

Fan Liuer could understand Li Chenbi's worries, and she was also very worried about him. However, the idea of ​​her dressing up as a man and following him around, and then going to the military camp with him soon, seemed absurd to Fan Liuer.

"What if someone finds out?"

Li Chenbi beckoned to Chuixue, "Chuixue came from a variety show troupe. She knows some disguise techniques, so no one will be able to tell the difference."

"Besides, you weren't recognized when you disguised yourself as a servant last time."

Chuixue walked up to Fan Liuer and said with a grin, "Don't worry, Madam. Although my disguise skills are not superb, they won't easily reveal your true identity."

Fan Liuer still felt uneasy. "Last time was a special case, and no one paid attention to me. But I'll be by your side every day from now on, and there will always be times when I slip up."

Li Chenbi held her hand. "So what if you've been exposed? Do you think I made you disguise yourself because I was afraid your identity would be discovered? I wish everyone in the world knew you were my wife, Li Chenbi's wife. It's just that the military camp is full of men. If you don't dress as a man, those people will be watching you all day long."

Fan Liuer: "..."

"You know that the military camp is full of men, and it's not convenient for me to stay there no matter how I look at it."

"You don't need to worry about these things. I'll arrange them as I see fit. Do you think I can stand you spending all your time with a bunch of men?" Li Chenbi said, waving to Chuixue, signaling her to leave first.

After Chuixue left, Li Chenbi pulled Fan Liuer up, drew her into his arms, and sat her down. He held her and whispered, "I know it will be hard for you to follow me like this, but I have no other choice."

"I used to be too arrogant, always thinking that I had everything under control."

"But this incident made me realize that I also have oversights."

"The letter you didn't receive was intercepted by Ni Hai, but he was able to intercept it by chance. Man proposes, God disposes; no matter how capable I am, I couldn't have foreseen the unexpected."

"There are too many people watching me these days. I really don't feel comfortable leaving you in Xingzhou. What am I supposed to do if something really happens to you?"

Fan Liuer was also afraid after hearing Li Chenbi's words.

She hadn't even returned to Xingzhou yet when the accident happened on the way. Fortunately, she hadn't gone too far, and Li Chenbi was able to arrive in time.

If she were to return to Xingzhou and be targeted by Li Chenbi's enemies, and Li Chenbi were thousands of miles away, then even a god descending to earth wouldn't be able to save her.

"Then...then if I go with you, what about the old lady and Yuhe? If someone wants revenge on you, I'm afraid they'll go after them, right?"

"They have other plans, so you don't need to worry about that."

After pondering for a moment, Fan Liuer finally nodded.

She has always been afraid of death. Whether something is absurd or not, legal or illegal, it is all trivial in the face of life and death.

Seeing that she agreed, Li Chenbi then called Chuixue in.

Fubuki came in carrying a toolbox. She walked to the table and spread the toolbox out on the table.

Fan Liuer leaned closer to take a look, and the tools inside made her eyes widen.

They were all things she had never seen before.

Fubuki stood at the table fiddling with something by herself. Li Chenbi had other things to do, so he asked the two of them to stay there and got up to leave the room.

After she left, Fubuki started talking more.

While mixing the foundation in a small bowl, she asked Fan Liuer, "Madam, how did you and Lord Li meet?"

This was the question Fan Liuer dreaded answering the most; her acquaintance with Li Chenmo was truly something that couldn't be brought up.

So she had no choice but to start making things up again.

After listening, Fubuki looked on with longing, "I originally thought you were like other couples, chosen by your parents. I never expected your meeting to be so touching. It makes me want to find a husband too."

As she spoke, she turned to look at Fan Liuer and asked expectantly, "Madam, if you have any suitable men around you, could you introduce them to me? I'm already twenty-two this year, and if I don't get married soon, I'll be an old maid."

Fan Liuer was somewhat surprised. She had witnessed Chuixue's skills and had been by Li Chenbi's side. Fan Liuer thought she was the kind of chivalrous woman who didn't care about romance, but she didn't expect her to be so eager to get married.

"Okay, I'll keep an eye out for suitable ones. So, what kind do you like?"

"I like pretty things," Fubuki said with a smile.

Fan Liuer laughed along, "Hahaha, I like pretty things too."

"No wonder you took a fancy to Lord Li. Lord Li is really handsome. I have never seen a man more handsome than him."

After saying that, she added, "Madam, you are beautiful too; you are simply delightful to look at."

Fan Liuer also liked to hear people praise her, and her smile widened even more.

Chuixue is a cheerful and knowledgeable person. During the process of disguising Fan Liuer, she often made Fan Liuer laugh from ear to ear.

When Li Chenbi returned after finishing his work, he stood at the door and raised an eyebrow slightly as he listened to the laughter coming from inside.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door. "May I come in?"

"Wait a moment," came Fan Liuer's voice from inside.

Fan Liuer looked down at Chuixue, who was wrapping her chest, and took a deep breath. It was a little tight, and she felt uncomfortable.

Fubuki noticed and whispered, "Madam, would you like me to loosen it up a bit?"

Fan Liuer thought for a moment and shook her head. She was plump, and if she didn't tighten her belt, her chest would look bulging. Combined with her current face, it would only make people suspicious.

After getting dressed, Chuixue opened the door.

Li Chenbi entered the room, his eyes searching for Fan Liuer's figure.

A figure in a blue shirt appeared in his sight.

With broad shoulders, a thick back, and his hair all tied up in a bun on top of his head, he definitely looks like a man from behind.

"Let me see." Li Chenbi walked to Fan Liuer's side.

Fan Liuer looked up at him, "How is it?"

Li Chenbi stared at the person in front of him, then pursed his lips and turned his head away.

Fan Liuer stared at the corner of his mouth, pursed her lips, and said, "Laugh if you want to."

Li Chenbi couldn't help but burst out laughing, his shoulders shaking.

Fan Liuer looked in the mirror. He realized that he didn't really resemble a woman, but he looked like a normal man, with regular features, straight eyes, and a straight mouth.

Is it really that funny?
