After seeing off the last wave of guests, Lu Sui was about to return to his room when he was stopped by Marquis Wanning.

"Do you have something to tell me?" Lu Sui saw that his father seemed to have something to say, but he didn't know where to start.

"Oh, I just thought that your mother's death anniversary is coming soon. Last year, you were injured and everyone's focus was on you. As for your mother, I only burned incense for her when I buried her with the maid. This year..." Wan Ninghou paused, "Remember to tell Bu Wei about it so that she can be prepared."

"Okay, I understand." Lu Sui nodded, "Then I'll go back to my room first?"

"Hey……"

Lu Sui was puzzled: "Do you have anything else to say?"

"You stood up in front of everyone today. I'm afraid that tomorrow, the news will spread throughout the capital. By then..." Marquis Wanning was silent.

“Whether before or after the injury, my ambition has never changed. As for Awei, she has always encouraged me, supported me, and even helped me prepare, so you don’t have to worry that Awei will be unhappy if I go out for medical treatment in the future. However…” Lu Sui took a step back and clasped his fists. “The battlefield changes rapidly. If one day in the future, I can’t come back, please let Awei go. She has her own ambitions and ideals, and she can’t be trapped in the house…”

"Puh, puh, puh, on such a happy day, what nonsense are you saying?" Wan Ninghou interrupted Lu Sui angrily, "Lu Sui, listen to me, I won't stop you two from achieving your ambitions, but even if you die, your body must be returned and buried in the Lu family's ancestral tomb, do you hear me?"

"I understand." Lu Sui choked up.

"Don't tell your mother or Bing'er about these things." After saying this, Wan Ning Hou felt that what he said was wrong and was afraid that his eldest son would misunderstand that he cared about it. "What I mean is..."

"Father, you don't need to explain. I understand." Lu Sui chuckled. "From being hurt to getting along with Awei and falling in love with her, she taught me a lot and I grew up a lot. You are the head of the family and you must have more things to consider than me. You can't take care of everything, but I got stuck in a dead end and thought you... I was ignorant before. Please forgive me, father."

"You... you come here so suddenly, I'm really not used to it..." Wan Ninghou waved his hand, "Go back to your room quickly, don't make Bu Wei wait anxiously."

"Yes."

After Lu Sui saluted, he turned around and left quickly.

Marquis Wanning did not leave. He kept staring at Lu Sui's back and wiping his tears with his sleeves.

It is a happy thing that my son is sensible and considerate of me.

But Marquis Wanning felt an indescribable sadness in his heart.

Maybe this is the price of growing up.

"came back?"

Yuan Buwei looked up and saw Lu Sui walking in with red eyes: "What's wrong? You look unhappy?"

"No."

Lu Sui decided not to tell Yuan Buwei what he had said to his father. It was not because he wanted to hide it from her, but because he didn’t want her to worry. “I drank a lot of wine today and I feel a little uncomfortable.”

Before he could finish his words, Lu Sui pulled Yuan Buwei to sit down, hugged her, and rested his head on her shoulder: "I feel dizzy."

"You're still pretending. I saw you ask Li Yan to replace the wine in the wine pot with water. I was wondering why you didn't get drunk this time after drinking a thousand cups in Yaowang Valley. And the same goes for my second brother. He has never touched alcohol before, but he drank so much in one go this time?"

Lu Sui didn't expect that his trick was caught by Yuan Buwei, and he felt a little embarrassed: "Then when the guests toast, I can't make excuses and say that I can't drink. That would be a big disappointment. But as long as we replace them, the guests will be happy and we will just be full. Isn't it a win-win situation?"

"Yes, yes, Young Marquis Lu has thought of everything very carefully."

Yuan Buwei laughed and stood up. Lu Sui held her back and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Get something, give it to you."

Yuan Buwei opened the cabinet, took out the bundle she had prepared long ago, and walked to Lu Sui: "Open it and take a look."

"it is good."

Lu Sui nodded and opened the bundle.

There was a silver vest inside. Lu Sui was stunned for a second, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes: "This is..."

"Silver Armor Shirt."

Yuan Buwei sat down and said, "When I left Medicine King Valley, I asked Xiao Qin to make it. He said that the material for the silver armor shirt was not easy to find and told me not to hold out too much hope. Unexpectedly, he found it. This time when he sent medicine to the pharmacy, he asked someone to bring it back. If you wear this on the battlefield, at least you won't be seriously injured like last time."

"The silver armor shirt is made with complicated and precise workmanship. It looks thin, but it is invulnerable to swords and guns. Awei, you should wear it." Lu Sui shook his head and put the bag back in place. "I can't take it. Besides, I have armor."

"Where there is armor, there are weapons that can pierce it. I can't stop you or make you stop moving forward, but you must listen to me for your safety. I said, I don't want to be a widow."

"Awei, it's not as serious as you say. Say it again, say it again..."

Seeing Lu Sui lower his head, Yuan Buwei immediately pinched his nose and said, "What are you talking about? Lu Sui, if you don't want me to be a widow, then I will take your child with me and marry someone else. I will let the child take the other person's surname and let him..."

"Avi, you got it?"

Lu Sui hugged Yuan Buwei tightly and even put his ear close to Yuan Buwei's belly: "When did you get pregnant?"

"What do you mean? What nonsense are you talking about?" Yuan Buwei tried to push him away, but Lu Sui hugged her tighter and tighter. "I was talking about the future..."

"That won't work. My child can't have someone else's surname."

"So, even if you have only one breath left, you have to crawl back here. Do you hear me?" Yuan Buwei said. Seeing that Lu Sui didn't say anything, she patted him and said, "I'm talking to you, why don't you answer?"

"I know, I know..."

Lu Sui felt deeply moved. He used to think that dying on the battlefield was a particularly glorious thing, so he always rushed forward as if risking his life.

In the past, he didn’t understand why the soldiers under him would be lazy on the battlefield and even a little afraid of death.

Now he understood that it was not laziness or fear of death, but caution, because he had concerns in his heart. He wanted to fight for a future with his life, but he was afraid that he would die on the battlefield and make his relatives and lovers who were looking forward to his return home live in pain in the future.

"Avi, you're so nice."

"Ok?"

Yuan Buwei smiled: "Why do you suddenly say that?"

"I just suddenly wanted to tell you." Lu Sui sat up straight, gently held Yuan Buwei's face, stared at her, and then kissed her: "Awei, you know what? I have learned a lot from you, and I have seen a side of you that I have never considered before."

"I rarely meet students who listen to advice as much as you do." Yuan Buwei kissed back, but when she left, Lu Sui held her head down, "Lu Sui, you?"

"Awei, after all, today is our wedding night."
