Chapter 335 - 335 The Eve of Battle

335 The Eve of Battle
While Qiao Yanhui was preparing, Ao Heng was also planning to go all out. When he thought of the army in his control, Ao Heng had a smug expression. He had spent a lot of effort to persuade the people to step out. Although they were still unwilling to break the rules and swore to fight only the secret families, he believed that these people, together with his own people and Lin Shu’s people, were enough.
Before the autumn festival, Xu Qing and the children practiced martial arts very attentively in order to improve their combat abilities. None of them wanted to become Qiao Yanhui’s burden.
At night, Xu Qing called Yuan’er over. She had wanted to talk to Yuan’er since a while ago, but she was delayed by some matters. When she saw that Yuan’er was still training so hard today, her heart ached. “Yuan’er, I have something to tell you. Come over here.”
After Yuan’er jogged over, he looked at Xu Qing while panting.
“Let’s go. We’ll talk as we walk.” As Xu Qing held Yuan’er’s hand, she turned around to instruct, “Ting’er, play with your sister. Don’t run around.”
“Okay.” Ting’er nodded obediently, but he thought about eavesdropping later. He had a feeling that his brother and parents were hiding something from them.
Xue’er and Qi Yi didn’t think too much about it and took advantage of their break to play.
After Xu Qing brought Yuan’er to a quiet place, she squatted in front of him as she said gently, “Yuan’er, did you see everything in New Heavenly Kingdom?” As Xu Qing looked at her son, she suddenly realized that her eldest son had matured a lot.
“Yes.” Yuan’er had an impassive expression, but his hands were clenched tightly.
“Silly child, your father will be fine. Believe me. I will have a way to treat him.” Xu Qing touched Yuan’er’s little head.
Yuan’er looked at Xu Qing with doubt in his eyes.
Xu Qing sighed. “Really. You don’t believe me?”
Looking at Xu Qing’s sincere gaze, Yuan’er relaxed his clenched fists a little, but there was still suspicion in his eyes.
“Don’t worry. Before you guys become independent, your father and I will stay by your side. We definitely won’t go back on our word. We won’t miss out on your years of growth.” Xu Qing squatted down and hugged Yuan’er with heartache.
Xu Qing felt Yuan’er’s body tremble. She knew that he was afraid of losing his father again. He was afraid that if his father was really gone, he wouldn’t be able to protect his mother and siblings, so he trained himself with all his might.
“You’re doing very well. You’re such a good brother.” Xu Qing patted Yuan’er’s back gently. At this moment, she suddenly felt wetness on her shoulder.
“Brother, we have to believe in Mom.” Ting’er suddenly said firmly from behind Yuan’er.
Yuan’er hurriedly wiped his tears in a panic when he realized that his younger brother had actually seen him cry. He was the older brother! He quickly wiped his tears and turned to look at Ting’er as he said unhappily, “You’ll have to do extra training later.” His brother actually didn’t listen to his mother and secretly ran over here to eavesdrop.
The corners of Ting’er’s mouth stiffened and he immediately said pitifully, “Brother, it’s already nighttime. It’s time to rest. Why do I have to continue training?!”
“Huh?” Yuan’er immediately snorted. It was Ting’er’s fault for seeing his weak side. He had to reestablish the image of a tall and mighty brother in Ting’er’s heart.
Ting’er sensed her brother’s intentions and could only agree. He had no choice. After all, he was a considerate younger brother.
As Xu Qing watched her two sons go do additional training, she didn’t say anything because she knew that Yuan’er was already much more relaxed. However, Xu Qing still stood on the spot and stared ahead in a daze.
“You’ve already persuaded Yuan’er to stop stressing so much, but you’re still conflicted. How ironic!” Qiao Yanhui’s voice sounded from behind as he wrapped his broad arms around Xu Qing tightly, making her feel extremely warm.
“I’m just a little worried…” Liu Gexu didn’t say the exact time Ying Zhiyao would return, so it could be at least a year, five years, or even ten years. However, Qiao Yanhui couldn’t wait that long.
“Don’t worry, with Yi Chulin and Ying Zhiyao’s relationship, she will come back early as possible,” Qiao Yanhui comforted.
“I hope so!” Xu Qing could only comfort herself like this.
…
The autumn festival had finally arrived.
Because the theme was hunting, the location was a natural hunting ground not far from the capital. Because there would be large wild beasts in such a place, there were huge numbers of people gathered here.
“Lin Shu really didn’t come this time.” Qiao Yanhui’s expression was a little gloomy. If Lin Shu didn’t follow the team, something unexpected might happen.
“Of course she won’t take the risk. To her, she’s a fisherman now. She’s waiting for you and Ao Heng to fight to the death, so she can reap the rewards in the aftermath,” Xu Qing said with a sneer.
