1860: Worried

Worried

Huo Sanyan then cleaned the dishes that were left on the table and tidied the room before leaving.2

She decided to move back to Ye Manor and wait for Ye Xun to return.

…

Huo Sanyan drove to Ye Manor, and the guard let her in with a warm smile.

Ye Xun had ordered the guards to let Huo Sanyan come in whenever she wanted to.

Returning to Ye Manor moved her deeply, as it felt like she finally got home.

All she hoped for now was that Ye Xun did not change, like the manor did not.

After returning to Ye Manor, Huo Sanyan finally learned that Ye Xun left to the border in a hurry and had no idea when he could return.

Even though Ye Xun wasn't at home, the servants were enough to take care of Huo Sanyan's meals.

She still went to work every day.

One day after work, Bai Yanchuan asked her to dinner. While they were eating, Bai Yanchuan told Huo Sanyan what Ye Xun had said when he was drunk at the resort.

It was only then that she realized how much pain Ye Xun had to endure every day for the past three years. He had never told her about the pain and decided to face it alone.

The more she knew, the more hurt she was.

Huo Sanyan suddenly felt like she was the evil one for all those years.

And after that, Huo Sanyan finally got a taste of what waiting for someone felt like.

It was how Ye Xun had been waiting for the Huo Sanyan that loved him to return.

Huo Sanyan would send Ye Xun messages every day but never got a reply.

But she also knew that the moment Ye Xun went to the border, he would have to turn off his personal smartphone and switch to telecommunication devices that the army used. Huo Sanyan had no way to contact him.

All she could do was keep sending him messages and hope he noticed them when he returned.

She kept on waiting, even until Jing Xi's second album was released.

Huo Sanyan also learned from the news that tension at the border was already reaching its peak.

Knowing Ye Xun had to live dangerously at the border, Huo Sanyan was always worried about him.

She would even visit the palace every day so that she could get first-hand news on him from her brother.

"When is Ye Xun coming back?" Huo Sanyan asked Huo Yunshen when they were having dinner in the palace.

"I can't say…" Huo Yunshen shook his head, knowing that his sister was worried.

"Can't you get someone to go to the border?"

"He's the General, that's his responsibility. Now that war is imminent between the Fei Country and us, his leadership is greatly needed. I can't just bring him back."

"Then… Can I go to him?"

Huo Sanyan was worried that if war really erupted, Ye Xun could lose his life at any moment.

"Of course not! Do you know how dangerous it is? You going there will only cause more trouble!"

"Then what should I do?"
