Qi Wei and the others had matters to discuss with Xiao Zhige. Hearing that he had returned, they hurried over to the General's Manor.

When Qi Wei saw the rarely seen smiling face of his General, he couldn't help but wave his hand in front of him, "General?"

Xiao Zhige snapped out of his daze and withdrew his smile. He looked back at Qi Wei coldly and said, "Why are you guys here? Something's up?"

Qi Wei was still curious regarding his previous appearance and pestered, "You looked happy. Do you have any good news for us?"

If there was good news, shouldn't it be shared with everybody? Furthermore, they have never seen Xiao Zhige putting on such an expression. It must be some really big news.

Xiao Zhige already knew what Qi Wei was thinking without having to ask but since he was in a good mood today, he did not want to chide him. He glanced at him with some pity and said, "It's indeed a happy event. But for someone who's still single, you won't be able to understand."

Qi Wei, "???" What's wrong with being single? What kind of happiness can only be obtained after marriage?

Qi Wei refused to agree. He was about to rebut Xiao Zhige when Xie Ling elbowed him, "Keep your mouth shut and talk less."

Vice General Qi Wei stared at him begrudgingly. It suddenly dawned on him that in the whole of Yanzhou, it seemed like anyone could bully him!

As Xie Ling always seemed to have better insight, Qi Wei decided not to pursue this matter. He changed the topic, "Why don't I see Wangfei today?"

This question poked right at Xiao Zhige's heart. He partially wanted to flaunt his happiness to his subordinates but realizing that this was a private matter between himself and Nuo Nuo, it would not be appropriate to discuss with outsiders.

So Xiao Zhige answered Qi Wei with some ambiguity, "He slept late last night and is still tired. He's resting in the room right now."

The single dog Qi Wei of course wouldn't relate this to anything else other than An Chang Qing being worn out due to the trip back from Liangzhou. He nodded in agreement, "It's indeed tiring to ride on horseback all the way to Yanzhou."

Xiao Zhige was speechless. He wanted to say something else but caught sight of An Chang Qing walking towards them.

When An Chang Qing woke up, he could still feel the lingering voluptuousness from last night. His temperature rose and his face turned rosy red. He left the yard to get some fresh air and happened to see Xiao Zhige chatting with his subordinates. From the look of it, it seemed that they weren't talking about anything serious so An Chang Qing decided to come over and greet them.

At home, An Chang Qing only wore a simple light gown with his hair tied back, looking graceful and pleasant like an emerald sapling in spring.

Qi Wei saw Xiao Zhige go over to meet him and whispered to Xie Ling, "Why do I feel like Wangfei has become more charming after his return from Liangzhou?"

He looked at the couple talking and became envious of the General.

Maybe it was time he found himself a partner as well.

On the other end, Xiao Zhige went to An Chang Qing and asked with some concern, "Why don't you rest a little longer? Is there anywhere that's uncomfortable?"

"I was bored so I came here for a walk. There's nowhere that's uncomfortable." An Chang Qing replied with some shyness.

Xiao Zhige was extremely gentle last night. Although there was some discomfort in the beginning, it gradually became enticing. Moreover, he had prepared his body specially for this so he was not injured in any way. They were perfectly in sync and other than feeling a little tired, An Chang Qing was immensely satisfied.
