Chapter 702 I can’t figure it out
He never expected that Lian Yi would act emotionally on the battlefield!
In order to satisfy her personal desires, she even sacrificed so many brave soldiers. This is really outrageous!
What made General Li even more angry was that just now, Lian Yi actually tried to drag Ni'er into this terrible vortex. This behavior was simply extremely bad!
"Isn't she afraid that those sacrificed brothers will come looking for her in the middle of the night?" General Li said gritting his teeth.
His hands were clenched tightly, his face flushed slightly, tears welled up in his eyes, but he tried hard not to let them fall.
General Li closed his eyes tightly, as if he was afraid to face the reality before him. The muscles on his face were tense, and it was obvious that he was trying his best to suppress the pain and self-blame in his heart.
"It's my fault..." General Li's voice was filled with regret and self-blame. "I was so ignorant of her that I entrusted such an important matter to her without realizing her feelings for me."
"My fallen brothers, I'm sorry for you..." General Li murmured to himself, and finally couldn't help but let the tears slide down from the corners of his eyes.
Seeing General Li in so much pain, Ni'er felt a pang of sadness in her heart. Her eyes gradually became moist and tears flowed down her cheeks.
Ni'er comforted him softly, "Don't take all the responsibility on yourself. What Lian Yi did has nothing to do with you."
"Those brothers who sacrificed their lives fought on the battlefield with Lian Yi. They are people you can trust with your back!"
"And she was so cruel, treating their lives like worthless grass, using them as mere tools to remove stumbling blocks."
After hearing Ni'er's words, General Li's annoyance was slightly relieved.
He gritted his teeth and said angrily, "I will definitely find a way to severely punish that vicious woman and make her pay the price for her evil deeds!"
However, thinking of those innocent brothers who died tragically, General Li's heart became heavy again. He couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that those good brothers will never come back..."
Seeing this, Ni'er couldn't help feeling sad. She sighed, then reached out her hand, gently touched General Li's shoulders, and patted him lightly a few times.
Comforting him, he said, "General, don't be too sad. The dead are gone. All we can do is to make sure the murderer gets the punishment he deserves."
Then, Ni'er said to General Li with concern, "Don't sleep tonight. Wait until this time tomorrow. It's easy to lose your mind after such a shock."
“It’s harder to not sleep, but it’s better than having mental problems.”
"Moreover, your old wounds have not yet healed, and you have new ones this time. You must take this opportunity to heal all of them before you can return to the battlefield."
"Otherwise, even if the Great Immortal came, it would be of no use."
General Li was deeply moved. With red eyes, he stared at Ni'er and said slowly, "Fortunately, you are by my side..."
"you……"
When the words were on the tip of his tongue, General Li suddenly realized that now was not the right time. He quickly swallowed the second half of the sentence and thought: It won't be too late to ask after we win the battle and return to the capital.
Ni'er was stared at by General Li's eyes that were like a deep pool. She felt as if her whole body was being roasted by fire and was extremely hot.
Her heart beat faster involuntarily and a blush instantly appeared on her cheeks.
In order to hide her embarrassment, Ni'er hurriedly turned her head away, not daring to meet General Li's eyes again.
Her voice trembled slightly as she said, "You...if you have nothing else to say, I'll leave first."
After saying that, she turned around and left in a hurry as if she had greased her feet, as if staying for a moment longer would make her breathless.
General Li stood where he was, watching Ni'er's back as she walked away, his eyes never leaving her.
His eyes revealed an indescribable affection and attachment, as if Nier was the most important person in his life.
General Li slowly withdrew his gaze until Ni'er's figure completely disappeared from his sight, but the beautiful figure of Ni'er when she left was still lingering in his mind.
On the other side, Lian Yi felt mixed emotions, feeling both relieved and sad.
She was glad that General Li was not as stubborn as before and insisted on accepting the punishment with the military stick.
However, what made her sad was that the only person who could make General Li change his mind was Ni'er.
This made Lian Yi jealous: Why was Ni'er so important to General Li? Why wasn't he the one General Li loved?
Lian Yi knew that it would be useless to continue to worry about it.
After all, you can't force yourself to like something.
So, she decided to stop letting her thoughts run wild and think about some more practical issues - what method should she use to get General Li to stand on her side?
However, what Lian Yi didn't know was that General Li had actually seen through her a long time ago.
No matter what tricks she came up with, she could not make General Li stand on her side. Instead, it would only make General Li hate her more.
Just as Lian Yi was thinking hard, an idea suddenly flashed through her mind: "Why not go visit General Li! He is seriously injured and needs someone to take care of him."
"If I can appear around him more often and let him look at me more often, maybe it will have some unexpected effects."
Lian Yi is a man of action who always does what he says.
Without any hesitation, she immediately got up and went to General Li's residence.
General Li's voice was as cold as the water in a cold pond, revealing a hint of chill. He looked at Lian Yi expressionlessly, his eyes cold and distant.
Lian Yi's heart tightened. He had never seen General Li so indifferent before, but he quickly comforted himself that perhaps it was because General Li had just suffered a defeat and was in a bad mood, so he was like this.
"I came to see you. Does the wound still hurt?" Lian Yi tried to keep his voice gentle.
However, General Li did not appreciate it at all. He frowned slightly and said, "My injury is not serious. You don't need to see me. You can go out."
Lian Yi's heart sank when she heard this. She had never expected that General Li would say such words to her.
I couldn't help but start to have wild thoughts. Could it be that General Li discovered what I had done?
However, General Li had not yet talked to the soldiers who returned from the battlefield. According to common sense, he should not know.
Lian Yi's heartbeat involuntarily quickened, and her heart was filled with confusion and anxiety.
However, General Li's attitude is really puzzling.
Lian Yi himself was injured and came to visit him specially, but General Li was so indifferent. This is really puzzling.
