Chapter 29



Splash!

Bai Yu was conscious enough to notice that someone had followed her into the water, but the current that swept her further from shore forced her to start awkwardly kicking her legs in an attempt to reach the surface. She had one weakness, which was the reason why she brought soldiers along with her...She could not swim!

After struggling until running out of strength, she felt her body turn heavy, too heavy to keep herself afloat. Her body started sinking as she choked on more and more water, yet help did not come. Eventually, she sank into the water.

When he saw the small figure disappear, the lieutenant-general of the grand army became even more anxious. He dove down immediately, dark eyes opened wide underwater without difficulty. ‘Bai He’ tried to find the body of his younger sister.

Even while his heart was burning with worry for his beloved sister, he had long been trained to stay calm in every situation. It was not long before he spotted her, who should have been at Bai mansion, being carried away by the current, unconscious. He hurriedly swam closer to Bai Yu and brought her out of the water.

When they see their leader emerge from the river, the group of people on the bank could finally breathe a sigh of relief. It was not that they did not want to help, but the woman was the Bai family’s first daughter and sister to their commander, Bai He, who cherished her above everything else. They could not even dare to look directly at her.

Bai Yu was drenched in water. Fortunately, the dark blue clothes she wore would not turn transparent when wet, though they clung tight to her skin, emphasizing her figure. Her whole body was enveloped in an aura of black color magic. Bai He used healing magic that was unfamiliar to him as he tried to sustain her condition until a doctor could come.

.....

“Lieutenant-general Bai, royal doctors are stationed at a village near here,” a soldier who accompanied Bai Yu went to report to him after realizing that at the present, there was no one who could treat her.

“Is that not the villager near Bai family’s ancestral temple?”

“It is, sir.”

“Very well...” Bai He tightened his hold on his sister. “...I will go there first. You two come with me. Everyone else finishes up here first, then wait for further order.”

“Master, please bring me too.” Xiao Xi was as worried as him.

“You, take her.” The first master of the Bai family turned to give a terse order to one of his subordinates before soaring away with his martial arts. Xiao Xi was carried by a black-clad man who used the same technique, then, finally, another man who held a sword followed.

—————————-

In the end, Bai He was able to hand Bai Yu to a doctor. It was fortunate that the magic enveloping Bai Yu was able to sustain her until she received help in time. They only had to wait until she regained consciousness.

The people in the village had been searching for the missing Miss Bai, but no one had thought that she would go as far as to the headwater. Ouyang Mingxian and Bai Hua rushed back when they received news about Bai Yu’s disappearance, and when they arrived, they met with Bai Yu’s pale sleeping face and a newcomer who should have been stationed at the border.

“Blessings to Qin Wang.” Bai He put his fist and palm together in a salute as he bowed to the higher-ranked man. At the same time, Bai Hua confusedly curtsied to her eldest brother that she remembered from the original body’s memory.

“Benwang thought you were stationed at the border.”

“Replying to Wangye, I followed the general commander which was to go back to the capital according to the royal decree. On the way, I found my sister on the riverbank, but she was not careful and fell into the water.” Bai He chose to lie to Ouyang Mingxian, for fear of revealing the secret mission he received from Ouyang Feilong.

While Bai Yu was resting, Bai He questioned the soldiers who came after him and discovered that Bai Yu went out to find the source of the epidemic. As a brother, he wanted to discipline her for risking herself. However, at the same time, he was also proud of his sister’s keen eyes and ability to come close to finding the clue, if he had not run into her while chasing enemies.

In fact, he, as the lieutenant-general, had received an order from Rui Wang to investigate the same matter. However, he accidentally came across a group of the enemy that was involved in his secret mission and that corpse, leading to the chase that had taken over one shichen.

Bai He stroked the pale cheek of his most important person as he silently blamed himself. He could not let her bring the corpse back herself, otherwise, Bai Yu would be pulled into a more complicated matter, and that would surely affect the secret mission Ouyang Feilong had been assigned by the Emperor himself.

“I’m sorry, dear sister.”

Warm lips pressed onto the sleeping person’s forehead.

Your effort today was acknowledged by both your brother and Wangye, but for the public...I could not reveal it to anyone.

—————————-

It had been two days since the accident where the first miss fell into the river. Bai Hua’s acupuncture was progressing smoothly, easing the tension in the air. For Bai Yu, she just woke up after sleeping for two whole days. She rapidly blinked to tune her sight as she slowly sat up to find water.

“Wa...water.”

“Yu-er” The familiar name was said by the man who had been waiting by her side for a long time. Shortly, after she had drunk water to moisten her throat, Bai He put down the teacup and stroked his sister’s hair. He said the words that had been hanging heavy in his heart. “Brother was very worried about you.”

“Big brother.”

Bai Yu gazed at the eyes that had the same color as hers while trying to jog her memory. She recalled that this man was her eldest brother who was born to Yue Mei, same as her. In these recent years, she had not had much opportunity to meet Bai He because he had been fighting alongside Ouyang Feilong. He held the proud title of the lieutenant-general of the grand army. He also had a close and loving relationship with his young sister.

“Bad girl. Don’t do anything like this ever again.”

Bai Yu felt dizzy for a moment when her brother suddenly pulled her into a tight hug. It was so tight that she could not breathe fully, but she did not move to push him away. She only felt tears falling from her eyes and an uncontrollable warmth that took over her heart.

So this was the love between siblings. Between Bai Yu and Bai He.

“Big brother, I’m sorry. I just want to be useful in a situation like this.” After holding back her tears, she said sweetly to her brother as she returned his hug. She snuggled against her brother’s broad chest.

Obviously, this tone and action could always make Bai He forgive his sister without fail.

“My little girl, you’re useful with just your existence alone. Who dare says my sister’s useless?” His big hand patted his sister’s smooth hair. He was smiling so wide that two dimples that resembled his sibling appeared.

He missed her so much.

“I want to be capable like big brother, of course. How could I just laze around?” Bai Yu brought his hand to her cheek and nuzzled while praising him. Though they had never met before, the feeling from this body alone was enough to make every action feel natural. She felt comfortable with him as if they had known each other for her whole life.

She did not have siblings in her former life, so being able to act childish like this felt so good to her. At least one good thing came out of crossing over to this world, and that was having a handsome big brother to heal her heart!

“You rambunctious girl, don’t try to act sweet now. Tell me, why are you here?”

He knocked on his sister’s forehead with his finger. Bai Yu only giggled before starting her story from what happened at the palace banquet up until when she discovered the corpse, though she did not mention the part where she had insulted Ouyang Feilong, since that person was her brother’s commander. She was afraid that if she told him what she did, he would have gone to kneel to ask for forgiveness in her place for three days and nights in front of that man.

Bai Yu and Bai He were only one year apart. The siblings were born from the Bai family’s first Furen. They grew up together and were two peas in a pod. Bai He loved his younger sister so much because he knew what she had to go through since birth. He also knew the resentment his mother held very well, so he did not try to interfere when Yue Mei educated Bai Yu to become the perfect consort for Qin Wang.

Bai He was the only son of the Bai family, which was an aristocratic family on the side of civil matters. However, he did not follow in his father’s footsteps but instead chose the path of the military. He became a soldier in Ouyang Feilong’s grand army and trained himself to advance his rank in order to accrue military power. All this was to support Bai Yu to become the most suitable candidate for being Qin Wang Fei.

Although his mother and younger sister were unpleasant to others in the mansion, he did not take it to heart. Bai He only had one thought: to find a way to make his mother and sister happy, because the two were the most important women in his life, so he had to support them with all his strength.

“Third sister must have been quite rebellious toward you, then.”

“Yes, but I’ve taught her some lessons already.”

“That’s good. I’m always worried about you and mother when I’m not at home.”

“Then brother should come back home.” Bai Yu pressured him further with her puppy eyes. Bai He’s role in the series was so insignificant that Bai Yu had forgotten that she had an older brother. But now that he was right in front of her and was so indulgent toward her like this, she wanted to act all cute to her heart’s content. She had been missing him so much that the feeling made her want to keep him close.

“This time I’m accompanying the commander-general, so I’ll be staying at the capital for some time. Oh right...” Bai He seemed to remember something. He brought out a black silk pouch with delicate embroidery and handed it to his sister. “...Yesterday, Wangye sent you this by a mounted scout.”

Bai Yu took it, puzzled.

“What is it, brother?”

“This is probably Rui Wang’s compensation for when you saved him.”

Ouyang Feilong had told Bai He that his sister was the one who saved him when he was injured, and so the lieutenant-general assumed that the thing inside that pouch must be a reward given by Wangye as thanks. However, Bai He’s assumption made Bai Yu even more confused.

She remembered that he had given her that black jade already. Why would he give her this as well?

No matter how much she thought, she could not find an answer, so Bai Yu hurriedly took out the ‘reward’.

It was a letter written in handwriting so beautifully that she could not believe it to be written by that foul-mouthed man.

There were only several words written within. Even without a signature, Bai Yu could fully believe that it was from Ouyang Feilong since the content was...

‘You fool, you should practice wielding a sword.’

What kind of reward is this? He was clearly antagonizing her! She was a lady. There was nothing strange that she could not wield a sword. If he wanted her to train sword fighting...then he should go learn how to sew!
