Jiang Xiao Xian watched Yang Yun silently as he waited for the servant to placed down some refreshment on the table. Then, Xiao Xian waved a hand to dismiss the servant and poured some tea for Yang Yun.
"Sit down," Jiang Xiao Xian pointed towards an empty chair.
Yang Yun glanced at the chair before he obediently sat. He opened his mouth to speak but stopped when Xiao Xian pushed the teacup to him.
"Have a drink," Xiao Xian said. His deep voice sounded like a command.
Yang Yun took a sip and put the cup down.
"I seem to recall that you're on a month break," Jiang Xiao Xian said. "Why are you so eager to return to the border?"
Yang Yun smiled faintly and lowered his gaze. "The one month break was approved for my wedding. But now," he did not continue, but Xiao Xian knew what Yang Yun meant.
Jiang Xiao Xian drank his tea slowly. "You don't have to return to the border with me and the others. Stay in the capital and look after your mother and sister."
"General Jiang, I-"
The young General lifted his hand to stop Yang Yun from speaking. "I know what you were going to say, but I did not stop you from returning to the borders because I don't think you're capable of returning to your task in your condition."
"Then, why?"
"Da Cheng has signed a peace treaty with the Prince of Sui Country," Jiang Xiao Xian answered. "Both countries have agreed not to initiate an attack for five years. His Majesty wanted me to return to the capital city and continue to serve him here. Since the Crown Princess had not chosen a husband among the princes, His Majesty had predicted that the attack against her would only get worst. It's fortunate that Grandfather had almost finished with preparing the potion." Jiang Xiao Xian drank his tea to moisten his throat. "Don't worry. I will only return to the border briefly for a handover process. That's why you don't have to return with me."
Yang Yun nodded slowly. He looked at the General once something crossed his mind. "Then what will happen to the Elite Team?"
"You don't have to worry about your team. I will not disband the team," Jiang Xiao Xian said. "You will continue to lead the team, and the team will be based in the capital. The mission will be as dangerous as your mission at the border. Moreover, if the other army group needed the Elite Team's help, you will be sent over to aid them."
Jiang Xiao Xian continued to watch Yang Yun after he finished. "You… Are you alright?"
"I am. General Jiang, don't worry about me," Yang Yun said. His gaze softened at Xiao Xian's concern.
Jiang Xiao Xian nodded. "You should not mind too much over what the Princess had said to you. She did not know anything about what the old man had told us. Who knew that the old man was telling the truth? You will vanish once you touched the Shadow Grass."
"Don't worry. I don't blame the Princess."
"My parents, your mother and everyone around you are concern about you," Jiang Xiao Xian said. "Look at you. You have lost so much weight."
Yang Yun could only reply with a smile. He didn't need to say that almost everyone in the Jiang's family seemed to lose his weight after Mingyue went missing. Mingyue was, after all the most precious daughter and sister in Jiang's family. Everyone, including the servants, loved her dearly.
"If you need any help, don't hesitate to tell us. We are family after all," Jiang Xiao Xian said. "We are all grieving over Mingyue's disappearance. However, we refuse to believe that Mingyue will be missing forever. I have notified the Second Brother of Mingyue's incident. He will return to the capital city in two weeks. We will then figure out the way to bring Mingyue back. Yang Yun," Jiang Xiao Xian paused. "You too, you shouldn't lose hope. We will find her."
Yang Yun smiled. "Elder Brother, don't worry. I won't lose hope. I too believe that someday Mingyue and I will be reunited. I will do whatever I can to find out ways to bring her back home."
