At six-thirty in the morning, the outside world was just beginning to brighten.
Qin Feng slowly climbed down from the bed and removed the clothes that were placed beside it, gradually putting them on.
He got off the bed gently, afraid of waking this beautiful woman with skin as white as jade.
Her body was flawless and soft, truly comfortable; her figure was long and full, resembling an exquisite mature woman.
As he climbed down from the bed, he noticed she was still breathing softly. Her fair face was stunning, the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
She was ten times more beautiful than his girlfriend, Lin Yue, a unique gorgeous beauty, the most beautiful of all.
It was precisely because of this that he had spent the entire night wrapped around her, unwilling to let go.
However, he had to set off this morning. He wanted to leave the room early, fearing that when this breathtaking lady saw him off, he would be reluctant to leave her side.
As he finished getting dressed, he was almost done.
"Husband, you’re up so early. Why didn’t you wait for me? Are you reluctant to leave me? Afraid I won’t let you go?"
This was his wife's voice. He turned around to look at her; she had already woken up and was leaning against the edge of the bed. The blanket covered her graceful body, but some of her fair skin was still exposed, truly enchanting.
Qin Feng hesitated; of course, he couldn't bear to leave this stunning lady. She had become gentle now, a feeling that lingered like a dream; how could he think of leaving?
But he had already received an imperial order and had to go; otherwise, if blame fell upon him, his whole family would suffer.
So he fabricated a lie to make himself appear indifferent and not let her feel sad.
"I am a bit reluctant to leave you, but the departure time has been moved up, so I got up early. Seeing you still asleep, I didn't want to wake you. Now, my lady, I must go."
He intended to walk outside, truly fond of this lady. Her gentleness had completely captivated him, even more than her physical charm.
If he stayed any longer, he feared he would really delay their departure.
"Wang Xiyue shouted, 'Qin Feng, stop! Are you still unwilling to forgive me? You actually left while I was sleeping.'"
She jumped out of bed, not wanting him to go at all. She was only wearing two thin white undergarments, looking incredibly beautiful and enchanting.
She quickly caught up with him and wrapped her arms around his back.
Qin Feng felt two round and soft objects pressed against his back; it was so comfortable, and a familiar warmth radiated from her—truly the feeling of his beloved wife!
"I forgave you a long time ago. Ever since you returned to your gentle self, I won't seek out Li Shishi again! They are waiting for me outside; it really is earlier than expected. I'm not lying to you."
He slowly lowered her delicate white arms; he truly felt reluctant but had no choice.
He was actually a young man in his twenties. In that future era, he took relationships seriously but wasn't very mature. He really didn't want to delay important matters.
Turning around, he looked at his Beautiful Lady. To his surprise, there were tears streaming down her fair face, which made him feel pity.
At that moment, he didn't know what to do; comforting words seemed inappropriate.
Wang Xiyue looked at him and said, "Qin Feng, you know very well that negotiation is fraught with danger. You still want to go? I can ask Cousin and her husband to plead with the Emperor on your behalf so that you can stay. That way, our family will be safe."
Qin Feng's face showed a hint of anger. Those Wang relatives knew very well that not only did the men look down on them, but the women did as well, only offering cold neglect and ridicule. How could they possibly come to plead for mercy?
If he were to send his weak wife to plead with them, wouldn't that be inviting mockery? No matter how much pain she endured, it would be humiliating for her to ask for their agreement.
He would not allow her to suffer such pain. She was his wife, and he would protect her well. He did not trust those Wang relatives; although they were family, they acted like pigs and dogs, showing no regard for him or Lunar.
"Do you think those arrogant relatives will help us? They are just people, different from us. I will definitely return alive! I promise you, in the future, I, Qin Feng, will be several times stronger than them! I will hold power in the court and make those who once looked down on me suffer."
"I will also not forget my beautiful wife who endured ridicule alongside me. You will always be my wife; no other woman can take your place."
Wang Xiyue was somewhat startled. The normally gentle Qin Feng now exuded a strong aura, like a warrior.
It felt as if he had awakened from a serious illness; indeed, after recovering from his sickness, his entire spirit seemed transformed.
But that was right; the Wang relatives were merely power-hungry and greedy people, unlike his own family. They always looked down on him and would certainly not offer help.
Still feeling reluctant, she said, "Qin Feng, promise me you will come back safely. Otherwise, I will go with you."
Qin Feng agreed; he could only agree. He helped her to the bedside so she could rest a little longer; she was truly exhausted.
He walked toward the door outside, his eyes already beginning to close. This was indeed a parting of life and death. She was the woman he loved most, and he felt reluctant to leave her behind, but there was no other choice.
In a chaotic world, to become strong and dominate a territory meant one could not remain weak and be at the mercy of others. He would rather choose to be strong than live as a useless person.
After stepping out the door, he slowly closed it behind him. It was very cold outside, but he could not let his wife catch a chill.
He gritted his teeth and turned his head, walking towards the courtyard. At this time, it was just dawn, and the servants had not yet risen, making the courtyard quite desolate.
Yet, a man appeared, dressed in grayish-yellow clothing; it was his steward, Afu, whose eyes were filled with tears as he looked at his master with excitement. This truly felt like a moment of life and death separation!
Once they were together, Qin Feng spoke: "If the negotiation fails, I may never return. The Jin army is closing in on Tokyo City. You should take the lady and escape back to my Jinling Home; that should be safe. Also, let the maids and ladies of this household disperse so they can save themselves!"
Afu was somewhat astonished. War could not be this cruel; taking down Tokyo City would be no small feat.
"Master, is this true? You must come back alive. The lady cannot be without you, and neither can I. I will ensure the lady's safety; if she is safe, I am safe. If she dies, I die."
Hearing this from him, Qin Feng felt satisfied. It seemed that Afu had a different kind of feeling for his wife, willing to risk everything for her.
"With you saying that, I can rest easy. If the war truly reaches Tokyo City, take her back to Jinling Home and do not return."
"But if it does not reach here, do not forget what I told you: take all the silver from the estate to buy grain and store it in those dozen empty houses. Even if we cannot eat it all, we can sell it for many times its worth."
Afu nodded; he had already bought a lot of grain and filled several empty houses with it. Each house was quite large, spanning several dozen square meters, with every room filled that way.
