Immersive Fast Wear: The Anti-Strike Manual of the Heartthrob

Back to the capital?

Lin Chao didn't care about it.

She had a house to live in the capital, but in Lin Chao's eyes, she always felt like she had no home.

Going to the border or staying in the capital made no difference to her.

Even after returning to Tonglin Village and having a few good friends, Lin Chao still didn't feel that he had settled down.

Sometimes, she always felt like a wandering soul with no place to stay.

Therefore, Lin Chao, who did not understand the true meaning of "wait" that Qi Yi said, bowed and clasped his fists, and only said respectfully:

"Your Majesty, there is no need to do this. Whether to be transferred back to the capital or not is up to your majesty. You don't need to plan for me."

"It's getting late, I'll go back home first. Goodbye."

Qi Yi looked at Lin Chao's back as he rode away on horseback. He felt mixed emotions, but he couldn't say anything and sat back in the carriage.

-

Zhufu.

Lin Chaolai told Zhu Lerong that he was going to be transferred to the border.

"Le Rong, I have received an order from the emperor that I will be going to the border to take up my post in five days. I have come here today to say goodbye to you."

She came in person, firstly to say goodbye to Zhu Lerong;

After two years of living together day and night, Lin Chao treated Zhu Lerong as a relative. Naturally, she had to tell him about this separation of unknown duration.

Secondly, Lin Chaolai also wanted to give him some advice;

I'm going to a very far place and may not come back. It would be a good idea to use this fact to persuade Zhu Lerong to let go of his obsession with her.

"Le Rong, I was never the best choice for your wife. And you see, I have to go thousands of miles away now. You are the only child of your aunt and uncle, and you should stay with them."

"Just think of me as a kind sister, okay?"

Zhu Lerong did not respond and remained silent, as if she agreed, but also as if she was resisting.

"I will hold a farewell banquet at home tomorrow. I only invite you and Ziyi. How about having a meal together as a farewell to me?"

Zhu Lerong still did not respond.

Lin Chao had no idea what he meant, so he stuffed the hastily written note into Zhu Lerong's hands and rode away on horseback.

The next day, at the farewell banquet, Meng Ziye, who didn't like Lin Chao very much, came out of the friendship between fellow townsmen and his mother's instructions, and brought some gifts.

Qi Yi got the news from somewhere and also came with gifts.

As for Zhu Lerong, who was always obsessed with her, Lin Chao waited for a whole day but did not see him.

Not only on the day of the farewell banquet, but also in the following days, whether Lin Chao was packing his luggage at home or going to the Zhu Mansion to look for Zhu Lerong, he did not see Zhu Lerong again.

Lin Chao finally realized: Zhu Lerong’s silence that day was not tacit consent or agreement, was he expressing his anger?

Zhu Lerong had been much gentler to her these days, to the point that she almost forgot that he had a bad temper.

Lin Chao was helpless and had no time to coax anyone.

On the day of their departure, she still did not wait for Zhu Lerong to see her for the "last time", and rode her horse around Zhu's house.

The doorman of the Zhu residence looked at her with a strange look and said:

"The master is not at home, so the girl doesn't need to go in."

Lin Chao sighed, thinking that Zhu Lerong was still angry.

After leaving the city gate, Lin Chao looked back at the most prosperous place in the world, which bore the ups and downs of his own experience.

Hiding the memories in his heart, Lin Chao turned his head to look forward, waved his whip, and was about to leave.

"Wait, Lin Chao, wait for me."

An all too familiar voice entered Lin Chao's ears. It was Zhu Lerong's voice.

Lin Chao smiled and pulled the reins hard. The horse raised its front hooves high and stopped moving forward.

"Le Rong, you're here to see me off..."? !

What Lin Chao wanted to say was interrupted by the scene before him.

"I'm not here to see you off, I'm here to go with you."

Zhu Lerong smiled, and the deep swirls on both sides of her cheeks seemed to be filled with sake, intoxicating her heart.

"Don't talk nonsense." Lin Chao dismounted with a serious expression.

Zhu Lerong was very unconvinced, "How am I talking nonsense? Look at my outfit, do I look like I'm kidding you?"

Lin Chao was frightened by Zhu Lerong's outfit.

He abandoned his previous brightly colored robes embroidered with beautiful patterns and put on a neat black Hu clothing with narrow sleeves and a slim fit, all to facilitate movement.

Zhu Lerong was carrying a large bag on her back, which was bulging. The fine lines on the blue cloth that wrapped it seemed to be stretched abnormally wide.

"I want to go with you," he emphasized again.

Lin Chao angrily scolded, "Don't lose your temper, the border is not a fun place."

"With you here, it doesn't matter where I go."

"During these five days, I persuaded my mother and father, and also talked to my uncle and aunt. They will take care of my mother and father."

"I also went to my maternal grandparents and adopted a child from them whose mother and father were implicated and had good behavior, and handed her over to her mother and father to take care of."

"Mom and Dad, I have arranged everything. When children grow up, they will always spread their wings and look for a world of their own. I have been with you for a long time. I want to be with you in the future. Even if you don't like me now, I still want to be with you."

After finishing his lyrical words, Zhu Lerong felt a little embarrassed. He pursed his lips and said firmly:

"You can't take care of yourself, so I have to go over there to prevent you from starving yourself."

"We are a family. Even if we are not husband and wife, we are still a family."

This sentence touched Lin Chao's heart deeply. She had always been unwilling to accept love from anyone because of the desire and fear deep in her heart.

She wants to have a home of her own, but is also afraid of forming a home with someone else.

It is difficult for someone who has been abandoned to refuse such a firm choice.

Besides, who said she had no feelings for Zhu Lerong at all?

The companionship day and night, the passionate confessions of love, and the inconspicuous but important care and concern that is dissolved in every day, are like raindrops dripping from the eaves, which will eventually drip through the solid stone.

"Arong," Lin Chao suddenly leaned over, "Who said I don't like you?"

The warm lips pressed against his.

Zhu Lerong's eyes suddenly opened wide, showing astonishment, panic, helplessness, and hidden surprise.

"Congratulations to the host. The hero's favorability has reached 100. The strategy is complete."

-

Not far away, on the carriage, Qi Yi looked at a small package that had not been delivered, and sat back in the carriage disappointedly.

"Emperor, aren't you going to see Master Lin off?"

"No."

Qi Yi glanced across the carriage at the two people hugging each other outside and shook his head firmly.

He is not as brave as Zhu Lerong, and he cannot give up everything.

"I'd better go back and be my emperor."

Qi Yi thought: He did have some affection for Lin Chao, but it was no match for what he had in his hands now.

He gave up because he had never paid any price and got the current outcome.

As the carriage rolled across the ground, the sound of horse hooves on the gravel gradually faded away.

Dust rose up, leaving behind a conversation between a man and a woman.

"Chao Chao, you said you like me, it's not because you feel sorry for me, right?"

"of course not."

"really?"

"Then Arong, will you regret leaving the capital for me?"

"Of course not. The decisions I make are all carefully considered."

"I'm just like you. The choices I make are from my heart and I never regret them."
