His voice was slightly hoarse as he whispered in my ear, "I won't kiss someone I don't like."

After saying that, he released me, who was completely frozen in place, and started the car with a slight smile on his lips.

Five seconds later.

Xu Lie's exasperated voice came from inside the car: "Stupid woman, let go! How am I supposed to drive with you holding me like this!"

The car swerved and twisted on the one-way street, accompanied by constant honking and cursing.

At the dinner table, I kept grinning, which made Grandpa, Mr. Xu, and Mrs. Xu keep looking at me.

Grandpa asked curiously, "Lanlan, what's making you so happy?"

I looked up and saw Xu Lie glaring at me, his face ashen and disheveled. I chuckled and quickly composed myself, saying, "It's nothing, it's nothing, I'm just excited to go to school."

"Lie'er, accompany Lanlan home tomorrow and tell your father-in-law about Lanlan's schooling."

"I know," Xu Lie said impatiently.

The dinner table suddenly fell silent. I looked up and saw Xu's father, mother, and grandfather staring at Xu Lie in disbelief.

I suddenly remembered that Xu's father seemed to have just said...father-in-law.

Xu Lie's face flushed red instantly, and he slammed down his chopsticks, yelling, "I'm full!"

"Haha..." Laughter suddenly erupted at the dinner table. I held my chopsticks in my mouth, feeling a sweet and indescribable happiness in my heart.

Xu Lie suddenly stopped and turned around to look at me fiercely, saying, "Girl, have you finished eating?"

I glanced at the half-eaten bowl of rice left in my bowl, and shamelessly pushed it aside, saying hastily, "I'm done eating!" Then I rushed to his side, looking like a dutiful little wife.

It turned out that Xu Lie had asked me to apply medicine for me. I looked at his gloomy face with delight, but his movements were incredibly gentle and careful.

"From now on, be more considerate of everything you do, especially when you go to school, you'll be all alone and need to take better care of yourself!" Xu Lie said in a calm but firm voice.

I nodded happily.

"In this society, you can't trust just anyone. Don't you know there's danger in going to a hotel with a complete stranger?"

I nodded eagerly, my happy smile growing even wider.

"I've never seen such a stupid woman like you, so naively believing that you can trust anyone..." Xu Lie finished applying the gauze, looked up and met my unusually bright smile, and was stunned. "I was scolding you, why are you smiling so happily?"

"That's because you care about me!" I said matter-of-factly.

Xu Lie's face stiffened; he was completely defeated by me. He shook off my hand and was about to leave.

I panicked and quickly grabbed his sleeve, looking at him again with those pitiful puppy eyes.

Xu Lie covered my eyes with her hand and said angrily, "You woman, are you doing this on purpose?"

"But...it's so lonely sleeping alone in this empty room!" I tried to pry his hands off my eyelids.

Xu Lie's tone was almost tinged with frustration: "Do you even know that a man and a woman alone together..."

I finally managed to remove the obstacle in front of me, and asked in confusion, "What?"

"Never mind." Xu Lie sighed, took a few steps forward to close the door, pointed to the bathroom and said, "Go take a shower."

After saying that, he felt it wasn't enough and reluctantly added, "Put your clothes on before you come out."

I knew he wasn't planning on leaving, so I laughed and rushed into the bathroom, completely ignoring what he said.

Chapter 14 Goddesses in Pairs

While I was half asleep, I felt like someone was shaking me to pieces, and the sound was like a loudspeaker.

I yelled a few times, opened my eyes, and met Yun Yan's ambiguous smile.

"Yunyan, what are you doing?!" I yelled angrily.

Yun Yan frowned, her beautiful face filled with anger, and said, "What?! Don't you know we're leaving for Xiangxi today? You've been sleeping until now, and the army is already fully prepared to set off, except for you, the Prime Minister, to supervise the troops."

"Today?" I scratched my head, which felt like it was stuffed with glue, and said in a daze, "I thought it would be much longer!"

Yunyan rolled her eyes at me and called out to the outside, "Linglong, bring your young master's imperial soft gold armor and scholar's robe."

"Yes." A melodious voice, barely suppressing a laugh, came from outside the door.

I resignedly allowed Yunyan to lift me by the collar to wash and change my clothes. Seeing that it was only dawn outside, I felt miserable.

Yun Yan smiled contentedly and walked towards the door, but stopped abruptly at the entrance. Without turning back, she said in a low voice, "Lin Yu, be careful of the people around you. I'm afraid he's already starting to find you unbearable..."

"What?" I looked up in astonishment, only to find that Yunyan was already far away. I looked up at Zimo, who just gave a cold, gloomy laugh. Finally realizing my foolishness, I couldn't help but let out a long, dejected sigh.

"Zimo, what exactly does this warlord do?" I asked Zimo, who was floating in the air, while I was getting dressed.

"The position of military governor was established by the last emperor of the Mujia Empire a hundred years ago. He represents imperial power on the battlefield. Although the military governor does not have the right to directly command the army, he has the right to supervise all soldiers and generals. In particular, in times of crisis, the military governor can even overstep his authority and directly command the army."
