Resisting the Wind and Splendor

"Li'er!" The moment that figure entered Chu Xiaohe's line of sight, Chu Xiaohe was struck as if by lightning, and immediately took a step to chase after her.

Why is she here?

He couldn't possibly be mistaken about that figure!

It must be Li'er.

Chu Xiaohe hurried to catch up, but unexpectedly, at the corner, he almost bumped into Huo Qing, who came out from the shadows.

"Xiao He?" Huo Qing seemed somewhat surprised to see him. "What are you doing here?"

"Third Aunt, I came to see..." Chu Xiaohe said anxiously, looking behind her repeatedly. "Third Aunt, I think I just... saw Li'er!"

He wanted to chase after her, but Huo Qing kept blocking his way. It would seem very impolite to just walk past her.

Chu Xiaohe was extremely anxious: "Third Aunt, I...I'll go take a look and come right back!"

"What Li'er?" Huo Qing grabbed his sleeve. "You mean, you miss Li'er, is that right?"

"Third Aunt, I..." Chu Xiaohe didn't know how to explain.

Thinking of Li'er is one thing, but seeing Li'er is another; he actually saw Tuoba Liuli.

"Li'er just sent a letter from home, would you like to take a look?" Huo Qing asked with a smile.

"What?" Chu Xiaohe was momentarily stunned.

Tuoba Liuli just delivered the letter from home? But he clearly saw her just now.

Since she was in the military camp, why did she write him a letter home?

Huo Qing took out a letter from her bosom and handed it to him: "I just received it. It says it's for you, but I didn't dare to open it. Take a look for yourself?"

"But..." Chu Xiaohe wanted to go find the person now. Although he also longed for the letter from home, if the person was right in front of him, then the letter would be far less important than the person coming.

"What's wrong? It's only been less than three months, and you don't even want to read Li'er's letters anymore?"

Huo Qing looked at him, seemingly with a reproachful expression: "Xiao He, how can you be so heartless at such a young age?"

"Third Aunt, how could I be that kind of person?" Chu Xiaohe quickly took the letter from home. The handwriting on the envelope was indeed Tuoba Liuli's.

But she really was right here just now!

"Third Aunt, I... wait a moment, I'll be right back!"

He always felt that Li'er was right beside him, very, very close.

That feeling was that even my breathing seemed to carry her scent.

No one understands, not even himself, why he is so convinced.

Everyone had told him that Li'er couldn't possibly be here, and his third and second aunts had absolutely no reason to lie to him.

But he just felt that Tuoba Liuli was really there!

He caught up with them and reached one of the tents!

Even though everything looks the same from the outside, he just felt that Tuoba Liuli lived in this place!

"Xiao He!" Huo Qing chased after him from behind.

Chu Xiaohe lifted the curtain of the tent, revealing a simple interior, but it was clear that only one person lived there, and that it was a young woman.

Each tent in this place should house a dozen or so brothers, so why is it that only this tent is occupied by a girl?

Is it...

"Third Aunt, tell me, is Li'er really here? Is she staying here?"

Why lie to him when you can clearly see Tuoba Liuli's presence everywhere?

"What happened to Li'er? Why won't any of you tell me? Third Aunt, what's wrong with her?"
