initely buy all of them for him.Zong Bai smiled and stepped forward, "Thank you, sister-in-law! I love books."Even if his sister-in-law didn't bring him anything, he was happy.And in the house, severa...Both fell silent for a long while, Fang Jinxiu's gaze never leaving Zong Yu from beginning to end.

"Now that everyone's gone, can you tell me the real reason why you joined the army"

Upon hearing Fang Jinshu's words, Zong Yu turned his head in surprise, meeting her gaze once again.

He truly didn't expect that his wife would be so intelligent, how could she have guessed his hidden thoughts just by meeting him

Even Lian Gufeng thought he joined the army and agreed to training and battle out of gratitude for being saved, fulfilling his promise.

Actually, the true reason was something Zong Yu had never told anyone.

“I.”

He hesitated for a moment, but Fang Jinxiu's eyes were so gentle, not at all aggressive. They were completely different from what he had imagined, the contrast was too great, and his guard immediately relaxed.

When General Gu asked me to join the army, although I couldn't remember anything from before, I didn't hesitate or reject his offer at all.

"It's almost as if I had always wanted to do this. It felt like...I was trying to protect something, desperately."

"You are so intelligent, you must also be very clear that once war spreads across the land of Xizhou, everyone living on this land will face a catastrophic disaster, with their homes destroyed."

Just thinking about it, my chest would ache so badly I could hardly breathe, and I'd desperately want to stop whatever it was.

"So I followed my heart and agreed to Gu Feng, setting a three-year deadline to completely quell the unrest in the western border of Xizhou."

This was the most he had ever spoken since he became self-aware. Usually, if he said one word, he wouldn't say two.

Though the other party was radiant, he didn't know what came over him. He answered every question instinctively and in great detail, as if afraid that a simple answer would lead to misunderstanding.

Zong Yu also couldn't figure out why he was like this. Before he could think about it, Fang Jinshu had already nodded.

"Three years"

Zong Yu couldn't figure it out, but Fang Jinshi understood it immediately upon hearing it.

She wanted to protect, probably only the wild village of Nomura and its people.

Before hearing that Xizhou was to be ceded by the imperial court, Fang Jinshi had only felt a twinge of regret in her heart. She had never thought of protecting that place.

This may have to do with her not being a native of this land, her soul doesn't belong here. In Jinxiu's heart, the modern world is her true homeland.

But their motives differed. Xizhou was his homeland, the place where he grew up; it was natural for him to want to protect this land.

"Alright, I'll give you three years."

Fang Jinshi stared at him intently, "I don't want to be a widow, nor do I want to spend my life as a lonely old woman."

"I will not take on the responsibility of caring for your children and filial piety to your mother just because we are married."

"Three years from now, if you don't return, I will divorce you and marry another man."

Fang Jinshu's words struck Zong Yu with great shock. He wasn't surprised by her shocking and unconventional speech, but rather the phrase "separation" which deeply wounded Zong Yu's heart.

The thought of this woman in his arms being embraced by another man, calling that man her husband, sent a strange fire through him, burning from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

Just thinking about it made me angry.

"I will definitely not break my promise!"

"Upon the completion of three years, I shall return."

Zongyu's instinct was already gritting his teeth.

"You can't marry another man, I won't give you that chance."

Fang Jinxiu's eyes lit up. This statement did have a few traces of her past, but she knew this kind of stimulation was only temporary. Zong Yu hadn't recovered his memory.

She just made a three-year agreement and said those things, all to give Zongyu something to think about, so he would remember on the battlefield that there were still people waiting for him back home.

To prevent him from recklessly charging into battle and dying on the battlefield.

She doesn't want to lose her lover, and she doesn't want the child in her womb to be fatherless before it is even born.

Fang Jinxiu had never told Zong Yu about the pregnancy. To better conceal it, she was dressed in black today, with a large cloak covering her slender frame.

Therefore, no one noticed the small bulge on her abdomen.

Her five-month belly wasn't very noticeable, and Fang Jinshi was determined to keep it hidden. Even after she left Bai Cui Garden, Zong Yu remained oblivious to the fact that he had become a father.

"Master Gu."

She looked at Gu Feng, who was still radiant in his wheelchair. Recalling his name as the young God of War, she thought, Ayou in his hands should surely shine brightly.

Her man was extraordinary, to begin with.

Since Ah Yu wants to go to the battlefield, she will be by his side as his woman, helping him in any way she can. She will do anything to help him achieve what he desires. that wretch and her child in as well.The mistress of this mansion could only be their mother; outsiders wouldn't even dare to touch her.As soon as the father and daughter of the Yuan family appeared,...
