Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 104

Chapter 104: I Miss You
Jian Yi looked at Shiyi’s confused and curious eyes for a second and said, “I found out that Duan Qinwang is the mastermind behind these mountain bandits. Also, these bandits are not ordinary mountain bandits but well-trained soldiers disguised as bandits. Can I fight against tens of thousands of well-trained soldiers by myself? You really overestimate my abilities.”

As soon as he said this, everyone looked at him in surprise. Shiyi was silent for a moment and then asked, “Commander, what are your plans now?”

Jian Yi was silent for a few seconds and said, “With our current number, we can’t confront them head-on. The best we can do right now is delay their plan to buy more time until Master and our brothers arrive.”

“Commander, do you know what their plan is?” A secret guard asked curiously.

Jian Yi’s eyes darkened, and he said in a deep voice, “Yes. Last night, I stole a secret letter sent by Duan Qinwang for the bandit leader. From the secret letter, I could guess their overall plan, but not their motives and goals.”

When the secret guards saw Jian Yi’s frowning face, they knew that Duan Qinwang’s plan must be bad news for them. Shiyi and the other secret guards waited for Jian Yi to continue speaking. After waiting for a long time, they saw Jian Yi closing his eyes and saying, “Get some rest. We will make plans after we regain our strength.”

Seeing that their commander had already closed his eyes, the secret guards closed theirs to rest. As they rested, the night deepened, and the sky slowly changed color.

Under the darkness, a man in black wearing a silver mask covering half of his handsome face came to Yunshan Village. He followed his memory and went toward the foot of Yun Mountain. When he saw the dilapidated thatched house in the distance, his heart beat faster and faster as his excitement spiraled out of control.

A few minutes later, Xuan Ruiquan stood in front of the dilapidated thatched house and looked at the shabby but tidy courtyard silently. He remembered the first time he met Duan Yixin in his previous life. At that time, she had already married Tang Zizheng. But for some unknown reason, she still lived in this dilapidated courtyard while her husband lived with another woman, who later became the empress.

Despite being abused and living in poverty, Duan Yixin took him home and saved his life when she found him unconscious in the forest after falling from a cliff. In those days, she endured hunger but never let him starve, even for a day.

Because she had no money to buy medicine, she went to the forest to find medicine for him. But when she came back, she was covered in injuries. Recalling her bloody look at that time, Xuan Ruiquan’s heart still feels like it was stabbed by countless sharp swords.

At that time, he never understood why she was willing to sacrifice so much for him. After a few months of living together, he thought she loved him as much as he loved her. But in the end, he finds out that she has saved him because he looks exactly like the only man she has ever loved.

Even though he kept reminding himself that he was just a substitute, Xuan Ruiquan still couldn’t stop himself from falling deeper and deeper for her. It wasn’t until the day he saw her burned to death that he finally lost his mind and planned to kill everyone to avenge her. Unfortunately, he failed and died in the war.

Recalling those days after she died in his previous life, Xuan Ruiquan’s eyes darkened, and he clenched his hands tightly. At that time, the hatred and grief in his heart had swallowed up his sanity. Fortunately, Heaven took pity on him and gave him another chance. This time, he will avenge her and repay the blood debt a hundred times!

Coming out of those dark memories, Xuan Ruiquan took a deep breath to calm down. After he controlled his emotions, he walked into the courtyard. One minute later, Xuan Ruiquan stood in front of the open window and looked into the small bedroom.

His breathing paused when his eyes fell on Duan Yixin’s sleeping face. Looking at the face that had always appeared in his dreams long before he met her in his previous life, Xuan Ruiquan was so excited that his whole body trembled. He clenched his hands tightly, preventing himself from reaching out to touch her.

After waiting for countless years and enduring for two lifetimes, he wouldn’t act rashly and scare her away. Before he can appear in front of her, he must eradicate the bandits who caused her to marry Tang Zizheng in their previous lives. This time, it would be he who would accompany her and protect her.

In the faint darkness of dawn, Xuan Ruiquan stood outside the small window and stared at his beloved woman for a long time.

When he saw Duan Yixin’s eyelashes trembling slightly, he stared at her with longing in his eyes and whispered softly, “I will miss you, Xin’er. Please wait for me.”

After he took one last look at her, Xuan Ruiquan reluctantly left without leaving a trace behind.

A few seconds after Xuan Ruiquan left, Duan Yixin opened her eyes and turned to look out the small window. Just now, before she opened her eyes, Duan Yixin smelled the familiar fragrance in the air. A fragrance that can only be found around the man she loves, a fragrance that always makes her feel safe and protected.

Duan Yixin lay on the bed in a daze for a long time before she sat up and sighed, “He can’t be here. It is impossible for us to meet again.”

After saying that, Duan Yixin looked outside through the window, hugged her knees, and whispered softly, “Yu Jingxian, I miss you so much.”
