Just as she was about to shout, a small hand covered her mouth.

"Shh-"

Upon hearing the voice, Xiao Yuxi immediately quieted down and softly said, "Brother Potato."

Mu Yunchen carefully lifted her from the stage to the stairwell.

There was a pillar at the top of the stairs that was just enough to cover the two little ones.

Xiao Yuxi looked up at him in confusion, tilting her head slightly.

Mu Yunchen pursed her lips, her heart already bursting with excitement.

"Wow, so cute, so cute, so cute!!!"

"Xi-jie was so cute when she was little!"

"As expected, Sister Xi, who never hits anyone, is the cutest person in the world!"

Mu Yunchen feigned composure and coughed lightly, "You can't be like your second sister."

"Why?" Xi Xi asked, puzzled.

"Of course, it's if you become like you were in your past life, and I become the lowest-ranking person in the family again!!!"

But it's impossible to say that.

“You should learn from your second brother. He can just sit at home and strategize. There’s no future in being like your second sister.” Mu Yunchen said seriously, clearly not planning to let Xiao Yuxi learn martial arts.

Xiao Yuxi glanced at her second older sister standing behind him, then at the older brother who was clutching his chest but still trying not to laugh, and then at her potato brother.

I silently mourned for a second.

"Brother Potato..." Before he could even speak, he was interrupted.

"Let me tell you, my second sister is a sissy..." Before she could finish speaking...

His ear was twisted from behind and he was pulled up.

"Mu Yunchen, you're quite something, aren't you? You haven't finished your homework yet, have you? Did you sneak out?" Mu Yunnan's voice was sinister.

She had just finished hitting the target when she glanced back.

It doesn't matter if you don't see it, you will be shocked when you see it.

The little girl had vanished into thin air. Realizing this, his heart clenched, fearing something had happened. So he immediately withdrew his hand and rushed over, just in time to hear the whole story.

Mu Yunchen struggled to escape her second sister's grasp and hid behind Xiao Yuxi.

"Is this all you teach your sister?"

Mu Yunchen's internal alarm bells rang.

"We're doomed! We're doomed! We're doomed!"

"Tell me, what do you want?" Mu Yunnan picked out a rather nice-looking whip from a shelf standing to the side, touched it with great interest, and then flicked it.

Mu Yunchen felt a chill run down his spine, as if half of his life was gone.

Looking at Xiao Yuxi's clueless gaze, he knew he couldn't count on her.

then……

He knelt down without hesitation...

The way he knelt was so clean and efficient, it was clear that only someone who had done it hundreds of times could possess such skill.

"Second sister, I was wrong."

His attitude in admitting his mistake was extremely sincere.

"I have no future?"

"Second sister, I was wrong."

"Am I a tigress?"

"Second sister, I was wrong."

"Mu Yunchen, you're getting bolder and bolder, aren't you? I really underestimated you." You even dare to slander me in front of Xixi?

Mu Yunchen was on the verge of tears. How did he get caught?

"Are you thinking now, how did I manage to catch you? Right?"

Mu Yunchen looked shocked.

Mu Yunnan gave a soft chuckle.

What a joke! In his past life, he was a soldier trained under her command. She knew exactly what he was thinking and what he was going to do.

Moreover, his personality is exactly like hers.

Xiao Yuxi looked at the large and small scratches on her second sister's arm and gently touched the edges of the wounds with her little hand.

Mu Yunnan felt a little itchy, glanced down at it, and said nonchalantly, "It's nothing, Second Sister's condition just looks serious, but she doesn't actually feel anything."

Xiao Yuxi grew up with injuries like this, so naturally she couldn't believe it. She said with a sad, tearful voice, "Xixi will never watch fighting again."

As she spoke, fearing that her second sister might be hurt, she tried to comfort her, but she held back her tears. The tears welled up in her big eyes but refused to fall, making her eyes red and even more endearing.

Ning Zhi, with keen insight, pulled out the medical kit that was always kept in the military camp, and, enduring the pain, knelt on the ground to apply medicine to General Mu.

Mu Yunnan was a little annoyed by his fussiness, so he took the medicine, roughly applied it to himself, and then haphazardly tied a bandage around his neck, biting it off with his teeth to secure it.

This was the first time she had ever been so "delicate." It was just a minor cut that bled a little, and it was the first time she had ever had such a small wound properly bandaged.

"It really doesn't hurt." Mu Yunnan was a little helpless; this little crybaby was just too prone to tears.

The key is that she cries so pitifully that it always breaks my heart.

Ning Zhi looked at the bandage that General Mu had thrown to him and bandaged his wound.

Ning Zhi hesitated for a moment before speaking, "This humble general has never had a chance to formally thank General Mu for giving this humble general justice."

He had been serving under General Mu until three months later when he was summoned back to the capital—a promotion in name only, a demotion in reality. It wasn't until General Mu returned to the capital that he learned someone had impeached him, leading to his transfer back. General Mu then secured a reward for him, finally granting him real power.

How did General Mu find out about this?

Mu Yunnan was silent for a moment, then shook his head. "You should thank someone else, not me."

In his previous life, Ning Zhi was not exonerated so quickly. Instead, he was completely abandoned, marginalized while holding a military rank, and eventually assigned to a suicide squad.

It was Yu Xi who discovered this old incident from several years ago through the restaurant she ran that collected information. She gathered evidence, exonerated him, and even discovered that the military achievements of another general from several years ago actually belonged to him, but had all been claimed by someone else without his knowledge.

"Someone else? Is it someone I know?" Ning Zhi asked, somewhat puzzled.

"I would say I know you, but not really. As long as you serve the country and its people, you don't need these thanks."

Mu Yunnan tugged at Mu Yunchen's hair with one hand and gently held Xiao Yuxi's little hand with the other, preparing to go home.

"This humble general is determined to go through fire and water for the Yue Kingdom without hesitation. Please convey to that benefactor that I would rather die than fail to live up to his expectations."

Mu Yunnan lowered his eyes, and without turning his head, pulled the two little ones out, smiling as he replied, "Don't worry, she heard you."

After making arrangements for Xiao Yuxi, Mu Yunnan planned to give Mu Yunchen, this unruly little brat, a good talking-to in the car.

The carriage suddenly braked.

The coachman outside hurriedly explained, "General, there's a child."

Mu Yunnan frowned and lifted the carriage curtain, only to see a thin, dirty little child blocking the carriage and looking at her. She felt like she had seen this child somewhere before.

Xiao Yuxi also peeked out and looked outside. Her eyes met those of the little child outside. After hesitating for a long time, she tilted her head and asked uncertainly, "Third sister?"
