After hearing Yun Bilu's last sentence, Bai Yaoyao pointed at Huang Yize, who was radiating a cold aura. “Bilu, I can't help you this time around.”

Yun Bilu turned around. Noticing Huang Yize's expression, she immediately chuckled dryly. “I was just joking, alright? I still have cla.s.ses to attend.”

Huang Yize merely smiled and said, “If you really think that way, I can bring you there during your winter break. You can take it as a form of training too if you're not afraid to suffer.”

Yun Bilu hurriedly shook her head. “Please don't do it. Huang Yize, you're my boyfriend, right? You should be more thoughtful and concerned about me. I can't suffer like that.”

“Don't you want to become stronger to protect your elder sister? Why are you reluctant to even suffer this bit of pain?”

Yun Bilu heard those words and felt conflicted. “I'm not afraid to suffer. As long as you stay by my side during my winter break, I'll go for training. I'll train myself and become an outstanding fighter too.”

Huang Yize caressed her soft hair and said, “I think you're the most disobedient fighter.”

Yun Bilu answered firmly, “Huang Yize, trust me. I'll become the best fighter. I won't embarra.s.s you.”

Yun Bilu thought that Huang Yize didn't believe her and wanted to continue, but he turned around and said, “I believe you. You'll become the most outstanding fighter after your training this coming winter break. However, there might still be changes to our plans. Let's discuss this again when winter break arrives.”

“Okay.”

Seeing how harmonious Yun Bilu and Huang Yize were together, Bai Yaoyao smiled too. She looked forward to her future and hoped that everything will be well for her.

During this period, Yun Bilu and Huang Yize continued to attend cla.s.ses at school. As for Bai Yaoyao, she wasn't always cooped up at home anymore. She found something else to pa.s.s her time—to pester that soldier all day long.

Seeing the cold expression on his face, she no longer held herself back and felt nervous. It was because she knew that it was just a pretense. He wouldn't do anything to her nor treat her badly.

While Bai Yaoyao pestered him, she would ask him about his life as a soldier. She had researched about it at home thoroughly since she wanted to be well-prepared.

At night time, when she dreamed, she would still think about Xirong Ziye, and her tears would flow uncontrollably. She would hide in the bathroom and bury her face in her hands as she cried helplessly.

The next day, her eyes would be swollen, so she would soothe them with a cold eye mask and eye drops. Pretending as though nothing had happened, she would step outside to pester ‘Ice' regarding his life as a soldier. It was probably a way for her to fill up her life.

She looked forward to returning to Ning An City and also joining the military.

She didn't want to dream about that person every night anymore and wake up bawling…

She couldn't verbalize all the pain she felt in her heart. After many years of being in a relations.h.i.+p, the love she had for him had already seeped into her bones. It was incredibly difficult for her to let go. She could only cry in secret and use this as an outlet to ease her pain.

However, during the day, she would force herself to be cheerful, so the people around her wouldn't worry.

Ning An City had begun the countdown for the business meeting. The entire city was basking in a celebratory atmosphere, and even the vendors were holding sales. A lot of businessmen from all over would be visiting Ning An City to learn about the business meeting. After all, Ning An City was a huge financial hub.

Yun Bixue was not a.s.signed a lot of tasks, but she was also swamped. She was busy preparing for the business meeting since would be attending it as Xie Limo's wife and also the matron of the Yun family.

Since she had two roles entrusted to her, she had told herself that she must do a good job.

As for Su Lenghan, in order to attend this business meeting, he requested for his younger sister to return home from filming. She would a.s.sist Father and Mother Su to look after Yangyang.
