Picked Up A Husband For Farming - Chapter 363
363 Farewell
Ao Jie’s body stiffened. He knew that Qiao Yanhui wasn’t joking. If he was too cowardly to face his inner demons and completely became Lin Shu’s puppet, Qiao Yanhui would kill him mercilessly. After all, in that state, he would no longer be Qiao Yanhui’s younger brother.
“I know.” Ao Jie lowered his eyes a little dejectedly.
Qiao Yanhui pursed his lips and strode away. However, the moment the door closed, Qiao Yanhui’s voice entered Ao Jie’s ears again. “I hope to see my brother when I return!”
“Okay.” Ao Jie’s voice was choked.
…
!!
Zhuo Wuyou had already caused a lot of commotion, so Qiao Yanhui had no choice but to set off early.
Xu Qing packed everything she could think of. She only hoped that her husband and children would stay safe. At this moment, she resented Zhuo Wuyou. After all, no friend was more important than her family.
“Silly.” Qiao Yanhui hugged Xu Qing.
Xu Qing’s hand that was packing paused. “You have to carry these things with you. They can save your life in times of crisis.” Of course, she hoped that that day wouldn’t come because if it did come in handy, it meant that Qiao Yanhui’s life was in danger.
“Alright.” Qiao Yanhui held Xu Qing’s hands.
Xu Qing turned to look at Qiao Yanhui’s chest and placed her hands above his beating chest. There was still a ticking time bomb here.
“I’ll definitely be back in three months at most.” Qiao Yanhui’s low and magnetic voice sounded in Xu Qing’s ear. His voice was like the bell in a temple, calming her down.
Xu Qing leaned into Qiao Yanhui’s arms as she said gently, “I’ll wait for you. When the time is up and you’re not back, I’ll look for you.”
Qiao Yanhui held Xu Qing’s face with heartache and kissed her gently. Then, the two of them slowly lay down on the bed…
In the darkness, Qiao Yanhui caressed Xu Qing’s face and hugged her gently. Every time he promised Xu Qing a peaceful life, it would be constantly delayed. This made Qiao Yanhui a little irritable. If possible, he wanted to shirk all of this, but he couldn’t.
On the day they parted.
Xue’er looked at Xu Qing aggrievedly. She also wanted to go. She didn’t want to leave her eldest brother and father. “Mom, you’re so biased. Why can my eldest brother go, but not me and my second brother?”
Ting’er nodded and also looked at Xu Qing aggrievedly.
Xu Qing was feeling sad that her husband and son were about to go to the battlefield, so when she heard her youngest son and daughter’s words, she couldn’t help but feel exasperated. “I want to go too.” Even she couldn’t go, let alone these two children.
“Xue’er, be good. I’ll bring you delicious food when I come back.” Yuan’er patted his sister’s little head.
Xu Qing was speechless. This kind of excuse could only fool children.
“Sure.” Xue’er was fooled.
“Brother,” Ting’er suddenly said. Although he didn’t know what a battlefield was, he knew that a battlefield was a place where one could die at any time.
Yuan’er pulled his second brother to the side. “I’ll leave our sister to you. Don’t disappoint me. Of course, you have to protect yourself as well.”
“Yes, don’t worry.” Ting’er nodded. To him, not having his brother by his side was also a way for him to become more independent.
Yuan’er also patted Ting’er’s shoulder. His mature appearance made Xu Qing feel amused and sad.
When Qi Yi saw Xu Qing’s worried expression, he immediately patted his chest and said, “Don’t worry. I’ll definitely protect Yuan’er.”
Xu Qing touched Qi Yi’s head helplessly and with heartache. “You have to protect yourself too. Don’t force yourself, understand?”
“Yes, I can definitely protect Brother Yuan’er. I’ve been working very hard to learn martial arts recently.” Qi Yi nodded fiercely.
“Brother Qi Yi, when you come back, I won’t tease you anymore,” Xue’er was touched and said.
Qi Yi waved his hand. “No, no, no. Xue’er, you can tease me however you want.” If Xue’er stop teasing him, he wouldn’t be used to it. Although he felt very uncomfortable every time he was poisoned, he liked it when Xue’er teased him. It could only be said that Qi Yi was a masochist.
After bidding farewell, the team prepared to set off.
Qiao Yanhui planted a moist kiss on Xu Qing’s forehead and smiled gently. “Wait for me to come back.”
Xu Qing looked at the departing figures with determination in her eyes. She would definitely wait for him to come back, and he would come back safely.
On the highest wall of the palace, Ao Jie watched the figures leave. This time, he wouldn’t be afraid anymore.
When Lin Shu heard that Qiao Yanhui had set off, she felt that everything in the capital would be under her control now. However, before Lin Shu could rejoice, a sinister voice sounded in her ears, causing Lin Shu to freeze.
