Quick Wear: The Sickly Boss Is Addicted to Spoiling Me

Wangcai stood beside him and knew how dangerous this journey was, but he still chose to listen to his brother.

I checked the ticket information. Although the war had broken out, there were still a few trains that could run, so it was not impossible to get to Gu Yubai by taking a train.

After finding the information, Wangcai told Shen Xi everything he had found out.

Shen Xi still didn't take his eyes off Wangcai, and after hearing what Wangcai said, he just nodded lightly.

But plans cannot keep up with changes. The next day, after Shen Xi packed up his things, he went downstairs and saw Lou Xi sitting in the living room waiting for him.

Lou Xi's face also didn't look good. Looking at the suitcase in Shen Xi's hand, his expression didn't change, as if he had guessed it a long time ago.

"Take a look at this..."

As he spoke, he handed the letter in his hand over.

After opening the letter, a familiar font appeared in front of Shen Xi.

The letter was overflowing with love. He really understood Shen Xi and was sure that he would pursue him, so he asked Lou Xi to come to Gu Mansion earlier and give him the letter.

The reason why you didn’t give it to him in person was because you were afraid that if you gave it to him, you wouldn’t be able to leave.

"Xixi, don't be angry with me. I will apologize to you when I come back. And the Gu family and the people in the city are left to you. Take care of yourself, and when I come back, we will get married."

This is the last sentence in the letter, and below is the signature.

Shen Xi looked at the letter and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He didn't know if he was angry or if he was really amused by the content of the letter?

Gu Yubai was really afraid that he would catch up, so he assigned him some tasks.

Having said that, Shen Xi threw the suitcase in his hand to the ground.

'Then I'll stay home and wait for you to come back.'

The war broke out in full swing, so the real war did not involve the surrounding areas of the capital, but there were still some refugees fleeing to the capital.

Shen Xi would ask people to buy food and build houses to accommodate them, and Gu Yubai also left some people to maintain the law and order of the capital. What he didn't expect was that the Qing Gang, which had often caused trouble before, became well-behaved after the war broke out.

Not only that, sometimes they will also free up manpower to resettle the disaster victims.

A few months passed, and the city remained peaceful, but the war outside the city became increasingly fierce.

Shen Xi couldn't help thinking about him every day. In order to alleviate this longing, he could only keep himself busy every day and force himself not to think about him much.

I am very busy every day, allocating materials and supervising the repair of the house. I am busy during the day and busy at night, leaving myself no free time to think about him.

Shen Xi didn't even dare to spy on Gu Yubai's current life through Wangcai's surveillance. He was a little afraid to see Gu Yubai covered in injuries. He just kept telling Wangcai to tell him if he had any serious accident.

However, the city is not peaceful every day. Riots break out occasionally, but fortunately, they do not cause too many casualties each time.

As spring went and autumn came, the two separated, year after year.

Finally, on this day, the good news of victory in the war came.

Shen Xi's face, which had always been cold, actually showed a hint of smile at this moment.

"I'm finally coming back..."

Shen Xi is very happy now, better than all the good moods he had in the past few years combined.

That’s why he didn’t notice the strangeness in Wangcai’s eyes.

About 34 days had passed, and the large army that had left the capital before had returned. Shen Xi rushed to the city gate impatiently, wanting to see Gu Yubai as soon as possible.

But the leader was not Gu Yubai, but his adjutant Yu Yu.

Shen Xi didn't think much about it. He just thought that he was hiding there and wanted to give himself a surprise. He was really happy. This was the scene he had dreamed of every day in the past few years.

So I automatically ignored the heavy expressions on the faces of all the people who returned.

When Yu Yu saw Shen Xi standing at the city gate, his heart sank. He didn't know how to announce the news to him.

In his hand was a black box, which contained not ashes but Gu Yubai's belongings.

Gu Yubai was on the battlefield and his body could not be brought back.

Shen Xi looked at Yu Yu approaching him, his face full of smiles: "Where's Gu Yubai? Is he hiding somewhere?"

Yu Yu knew the relationship between them, so he was even more afraid to speak. After a long silence, Shen Xi also realized that something was wrong.

A bad premonition surged in his heart, and even his voice began to tremble.

"Where is he...?"

"The Marshal has sacrificed himself..."
