His brother was the third party between the relations.h.i.+p of Luo Chao and Boss. Shouldn't Luo Chao be angry and furious at his intrusion?
“Huh?” Luo Chao was puzzled by Li s.h.i.+yu's question.
“You're Boss's fiancée. Why aren't you angry at all?” Li s.h.i.+yu couldn't understand what Luo Chao was thinking.
“Ah…” Luo Chao finally understood why he was confused by her mild reaction. Right, she was the rightful fiancée of Boss. Why was she getting stepped on by Regiment Commander Li?
She pondered for some time. She had never thought about this so when Regiment Commander Li's affair came out, she was stunned.
But, she couldn't tell Li s.h.i.+yu the truth so she replied, “Actually if Boss likes him, I can accept it. It's just that the news came so abruptly that I can't control my emotions.”
“You're… really a stupid little girl.” Li s.h.i.+yu felt deeply saddened when he saw Luo Chao taking a backseat in her relations.h.i.+p. In the past, he thought Boss was someone who would take care of his younger sister's future but now, it didn't seem to be the case.
“Why don't you ask Regiment Commander Li about it? If they're really together, I'll learn to accept it,” Luo Chao bit her lips as she asked. She felt a little unwilling, but if her G.o.ddess chose Regiment Commander Li, she had to force herself to change her att.i.tude towards the matter. She felt that she could do it.
“Really!” Li s.h.i.+yu touched Luo Chao's hair lovingly. She was too kind.
If his elder brother was really in a relations.h.i.+p with Boss… s.h.i.+yu couldn't help but shudder at the thought.
Luo Chao was definitely not his elder brother's match. She might not even know how she died.
After all these years, Li s.h.i.+yu had gained some understanding of his elder brother's real personality. His elder brother was someone who wouldn't allow any obstacles in his path. If what Luo Chao said was true, Luo Chao and Han Xuya would become the obstacles that his elder brother wouldn't allow to exist.
Two days pa.s.sed by quickly. The battle at the frontline became even more heated. Reports came flying in every few hours. These reports might be about their own team or their opponent's team. There were reports about the other armies too. The entire rainbow palace was running on full gear because of the battle.
Logistics was very important during a prolonged battle. Fortunately, the previous Lord Gen had an abundance of supplies, and with Ling Lan getting a continuous supply of resources from Lingtian and the Chaotic Lands, her army had a smooth journey during the battle.
Victory reports kept coming from the frontline so everyone in the rainbow palace were all in a good mood. They seemed exceptionally light-hearted when they did their work.
But, someone wasn't happy. As time went by, his emotions got heavier. He would occasionally be in a trance and sigh.
Soon, Ling Lan heard about his abnormal state.
“Oh? Are you saying that Li s.h.i.+yu's emotions have been weird lately?” Ling Lan closed the file in her hand when she heard this. She was a little confused. She looked at Han Xuya intently.
“Yes.” Han Xuya was in charge of organising the medical supplies so she met Li s.h.i.+yu very often. She was quite a perceptive person so after a few interactions, she noticed something wrong with him.
“Luo Chao seemed strange too. But, no matter how much I pestered her, she just brushed it off by saying she is fine.” Han Xuya changed the topic and talked about Luo Chao. She seemed confused. The people around her had been acting weirdly in these past few days.
Li Lanfeng, who was arranging piles of doc.u.ments at the side, let out a slight smirk when he heard this. He seemed to think that what Han Xuya said was interesting.
Yes, Regiment Commander Li too. Han Xuya saw Li Lanfeng from the corner of her eyes. She felt that Regiment Commander Li's gaze was chilling when he looked at her.
Luo Chao? Did she really have a misunderstanding? Should she look for Luo Chao to have a chat and tell her that there was nothing going on between Li Lanfeng and her?
Ling Lan felt her head hurting. This was the trouble created by Li Lanfeng. Thinking about this, she turned and glanced coldly at Li Lanfeng who was snickering secretly at the side.
Li Lanfeng felt Ling Lan's gaze. He shrugged innocently and expressed that he didn't know anything.
Ling Lan was thinking if she should punish Li Lanfeng with a month of training. However, this fellow was in charge of her three meals. If he really collapsed from the punishment… she wouldn't have any food to eat.
F**k, the result of punis.h.i.+ng him was that she would go hungry? Ling Lan felt speechless. She realized she had no choice, but to forgive him.
Still, she felt that she needed to meet Luo Chao to explain to her. As for Li s.h.i.+yu, Li Lanfeng was his brother, right? Let Li Lanfeng solve his younger brother's problem.
“Lanfeng, go find s.h.i.+yu and show him some concern. Tell me what's the matter with him.” Ling Lan decisively threw this responsibility to Li Lanfeng.
“Yes, my Lord Gen,” Li Lanfeng smiled as he replied. There was happiness in his voice. He seemed to be teasing Ling Lan too.
The moment he finished speaking, he disappeared on the spot. He went to look for Li s.h.i.+yu.
Only Ling Lan and Han Xuya were left in the meeting room. Han Xuya didn't have to worry anymore so she crossed her arms and said with contempt, “Boss, don't you think that Regiment Commander Li's tone is unbearable?”
Ling Lan replied calmly, “Isn't it very normal?” That's because you haven't seen how shameless he was when he laid on her bed. Once you see that, everything else is normal.
Normal? Han Xuya started wondering if she was thinking too much. She always believed that Boss was right.
“Yes, it's very normal, Maybe I got affected by Brother s.h.i.+yu and Luo Chao. Because of them, everything felt weird lately.” Han Xuya gave herself the perfect excuse.
Ling Lan didn't know what to say when she looked at Han Xuya. Sister, I was just saying nonsense.
In the medical department, Li s.h.i.+yu, who was keeping records on the stock of medical agents, couldn't help but let out a sigh as he looked at his agents.
How was he supposed to look for his elder brother to talk about this? Luo Chao asked him to question his elder brother but he didn't know where to start. If everything was just Luo Chao's misunderstanding, would he hurt his brother if he asked him directly?
In these past two days, after calming down and recalling what Luo Chao said, he felt that her evidence wasn't solid enough, so there was a high likelihood of it being a misunderstanding.
Of course, this was because Li s.h.i.+yu couldn't believe that his immortal-like elder brother would degrade into such a character unless he really loved Boss. But, in all these years, he never noticed his elder brother showing that kind of feeling towards Boss. Did his elder brother hide his emotions too well or did Luo Chao overa.n.a.lyze?
Thinking about this, Li s.h.i.+yu couldn't help but sigh again.
“I stood here for five minutes and you have sighed three times. s.h.i.+yu, what is on your mind?” A gentle voice entered his ears. Li s.h.i.+yu raised his head abruptly to see his elder brother standing in front of his desk looking at him with a frown with a gaze filled with worry.
