No Matter How Far They Are

The warmth that surged in his heart suppressed his uneasiness about this unfamiliar space. He wanted to thank her, but just as he opened his mouth, he saw the rabbit that had run away earlier running back with a large group of gray and white companions.
The rabbits, which were all fat, kept circling Rong Yan. He did not know the deeper meaning, so he could only ask Xiaoxiao, “What are they doing?”
Xiaoxiao carefully observed the subtle expression on Scarf’s furry face and guessed, “Maybe… it wants to introduce its descendants to you?”
Rong Yan admitted that he was shocked. “Are these all its?”
Xiaoxiao laughed. “That’s right. At first, I brought it in because I didn’t want it to be lonely in your small courtyard. In order to find something for it to do, I specially got a few more rabbits from outside. I didn’t expect it to have endless rabbit grandchildren, filling my rabbit cage.”
Rong Yan turned to look at Scarf, which stood up on its hind legs and highlighted its unique status. It was probably not an introduction, but a special show-off to him.
He smiled and said to Xiaoxiao, “There’s so much. The spicy rabbit head you mentioned back then should be settled.”
The rabbits dispersed. Scarf took the lead, his short legs almost leaving afterimages.
Life was too hard on it. Usually, it could not win against a horse, but today, it still had to be bullied by that stinky man from before! What a sin!
Xiaoxiao laughed so hard that she could not straighten her back. Before she left Fortune Village, Xiaoxiao could not bear to leave Scarf in that empty courtyard and let it live in the space. After that, the rabbit started to become smarter and smarter, as if it had become a rabbit spirit.
If it bared its teeth at first because it did not recognize Rong Yan, it must have done it on purpose now.
What exactly did Little Big Brother do to this rabbit in the past that it still came to provoke him shakily when it was so cowardly? It was simply cowardly and playful.
However… Little Big Brother, who was really angry, was also a little cute. Xiaoxiao leaned over eagerly and whispered.
“There’s only the two of us here now. There’s something I’ve wanted to do for a long time…”
Rong Yan’s face turned red, and his pretense of calmness turned into smoke. His Adam’s apple moved up and down with difficulty. No one knew what was going on in his mind at this moment.
Xiaoxiao watched him shyly for a while before she waved her hand and moved out many steaming delicacies from the warehouse.
“Look! These are all delicious foods I prepared for you!”
“The space is amazing. Everything in the warehouse can be kept fresh. It looks like it has just been cooked no matter how long it’s kept. You can eat it anytime in the future…”
Before she could finish her sentence, the handsome face that suddenly approached gritted his teeth. “You did it on purpose…”
Xiaoxiao’s eyes were filled with smiles. Yes, she was, but then… Eh? Hey, hey, hey?
The sudden touch on her lips made Xiaoxiao freeze on the spot. Was she kissed just now?
Seeing her reaction, Rong Yan chuckled and approached her again. “You teased me first.”
The shallow and probing kiss gradually deepened. It should be like spring all year round in the space, but Xiaoxiao felt the temperature rising continuously.
He did not know how to do it at first, but later…
Anyway, when the two of them separated, Xiaoxiao felt that her mouth was a little swollen. Rong Yan’s slightly hoarse voice sounded in her ear. “I’m sorry, I couldn’t control myself for a moment.” After being ignorant for a long time, he finally realized that her deep love and trust in him far exceeded his imagination. His thoughts surged and he was extremely tempted.
Xiaoxiao nodded. “You’re a newbie after all. I can understand.”
After saying that, she was kissed again.
This kiss made Xiaoxiao understand one thing with her own experience—don’t easily challenge the dignity of a boy who has just fallen in love, especially the kind who is competitive.
After that, they still ate. Rong Yan even used the slow time in the space to study the art of war.
Since she had already laid her cards on the table, Xiaoxiao could not be bothered to hide her skills. She spent a lot of money to exchange for a bunch of useful military books for him.
When he was resting, Xiaoxiao would choose to explain the use of the space. Rong Yan was too embarrassed to look at Xiaoxiao’s face, especially her red lips. Xiaoxiao sighed in her heart. You’re the one who did the naughty deeds, but you’re also the one who’s shy afterward. Those who didn’t know better would think that I was the one who wanted to eat you up just now.
The joy of being in love made them not feel the passage of time. Even so, only an hour had passed outside after they came out of the space.
It was impossible for them to chat much and finish their supper in an hour. Moreover, it was quiet and stable inside, so the Yun Guards outside Rong Yan’s house did not think much of it at all, even though Xiaoxiao looked a little abnormal when she came out with her head lowered and the tray covering half of her face.
Xiaoxiao threw herself into the blanket and giggled when she returned to her room. Rong Yan was the same.
In the past, she had always felt that the two of them were busy and did not have much time to interact with each other. Now that the space was exposed to Rong Yan, time would be inexhaustible.
The people in the border city realized that their commander-in-chief was in high spirits today. Not only was he in good spirits, but he was also in a good mood. Even when he saw the Xiongnu b*stards, he did not look like he was about to draw his sword at any time.
However, this gentleness was only before the negotiations began.
Before today’s routine negotiations began, Rong Yan killed a few Southern Barbarian soldiers who refused to surrender.
“The dignity of Great Xia cannot be violated. Those who offend our country will be killed no matter how far away they are.”
The Xiongnu felt that these words were not just for the Southern Barbarians to hear.
The bloody lesson was right in front of them, so they couldn’t help but restrain themselves and be more honest. However, what Great Xia and Rong Yan wanted were more than just these.
“Since Xiongnu is unwilling to show your sincerity, let’s do it our own way. Today, I’ll say this. Either sign the alliance and hand over the iron mine, or we continue fighting.”
“How can a defeated country have so many excuses?”
These words were so straightforward that Chernan was humiliated, but he had no way to refute them.
What was wrong with Great Xia? It was actually… so unyielding!
However, they had abundant rations and a strong army that did not know exhaustion. What was most infuriating was that this many consecutive days of experience made Chernan have to admit that Great Xia was really blessed by the heavens!
Otherwise, how could they explain the unbelievable “coincidences” that had appeared these days?
For example, the rain when they set fire to Great Xia’s military camp, the wolves that came knocking on their door when Great Xia was short of food, and the sandstorm that appeared when the Southern Barbarians attacked.
Moreover, the Great Xia Imperial Court didn’t take the border city seriously in the past. Otherwise, the Crown Prince of Great Xia wouldn’t have dared to conspire with him. But now, that girl who came out of nowhere actually planted crops in the border city. Would Great Xia still give up on this vast desert?
“Second Prince, what should we do?”
“Prince, the patriarchs are all protesting. They say that if you continue to be stubborn, they won’t cooperate with you…”
“Prince, the First Prince has already roped in several patriarchs.. We don’t have enough troops…”
