Chapter 456 Cover up

Xin Cheng's eyes lit up: "I'm glad I can help you!"

The meal was lively, but it was not until the evening when Jiang Lili finished reminiscing with relatives and friends and returned to the yard where she and Xin Che lived that she realized that there was a sense of emptiness in her heart.

As soon as Jiang Lili opened the door, the lanterns hanging on both sides of the stone path in the yard lit up automatically.

Although no one has lived here for a long time, it is still kept in good order. At this moment, illuminated by the warm yellow light from the orange lanterns, the scenery in the courtyard looks very cozy.

There is a newly built pear wood swing in the courtyard, with glowing small persimmon-shaped lanterns hanging on it, which is very beautiful.

Jiang Lili sat on the swing and swung for a while, and found that the inside of the swing frame seemed to have a mechanism. After it was started, there was no need to use force with the legs.

The swing can also swing automatically. When the tassel hanging from the swing beam is pulled, the swing will brake and stop by itself.

Jiang Lili sat on the swing, looking up at the bright moon in the sky. She wondered if Xin Che was looking up at the same moon as her.

Unconsciously, Xin Che's figure appeared in Jiang Lili's mind, and could not be shaken off. The person who once protected her every step of the way was now thousands of miles away from her.

Missing you is the countless moments when you close your eyes.

Jiang Lili went to bed early after taking a shower, but she tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

After thinking it over, Jiang Lili opened the group chat and asked indirectly, and she received a private message from Master Liao.

【@江麗麗: Master Liao, has Panda told you about his and Xin Che's recent situation? What caused them to not be able to come back for the New Year? 】

Master Liao responded quickly.

【@Master Liao: What? Master, are you really not going back to Haizhou Island for the New Year? 】

【@江麗麗: Yes, didn’t Panda tell you? He’s very busy in the war zone and doesn’t have time to come back. Did Xin Che encounter any problems? 】

【@Master Liao: This is unlikely. With Master's fighting power, nothing can hold him back. Panda said they don't have time to come back?】

There seems to be only one possibility, that he ran too far, or there were some uncertainties on the road. The master himself was not sure about the time of his return, so he did not dare to easily assert that he could arrive on time during the New Year.

Master Liao suddenly recalled a question that Xin Che had asked himself when he left Nanzhao.

In ancient times, people often used jade pendants and love locks as tokens of love, but in the era when Master Liao lived, what was used as a token of love according to customs?

Master Liao blurted out: "Of course it's a big, shiny diamond ring, the bigger the better!"

“Diamonds are forever, one lasts forever!”

Xin Che then asked Master Liao what diamonds looked like and where the best diamonds were produced.

Africa!

Tanzania has the largest kimberlite pipe in the world!

It is rich in gem-quality diamonds!

Master Liao's eyes widened as his own answer echoed in his mind.

Zhang Xiaopang also told Master Liao that Panda suddenly asked him about the sailing routes to Tanzania and the specific location of the diamond mines, and also asked for some detection equipment one after another. These equipment were kept confidential when they were handed over to Jiang Lili for "shipment".

At that time, Master Liao thought that Panda had discovered a diamond mine somewhere, but now he thinks that he was asking on behalf of Xin Che.

【@Master Liao: Master, he didn’t really go to Africa to fight! That’s why he didn’t come back so soon?】

【@江麗麗: Africa? Why Africa? According to the map, the area he is currently fighting in is just the hilly and plain area of ​​China's western neighbor. Why did he suddenly go to Africa?】

Master Liao replied vaguely after a while: [It's okay, I'm just guessing! This is an exaggeration. Don't worry too much! Maybe he suddenly encountered something and was delayed on the road! I can't be sure when he will be back. ]

After reading the message sent by Master Liao, Jiang Lili became even more worried.

After much thought, I decided to ask Panda directly.

Panda and Xin Che are together, so they should understand the situation better.

[@江麗麗: Panda, did you and Xin Che encounter any difficult problems? Is Xin Che injured? ]

[@潘达: No, our control areas are very stable now. You have to believe in your brother-in-law's strength! God of War, no problem. Who dares to act rashly?]

【@江麗麗: What is Xin Che doing now? 】

[@潘达: Training! So cool! ]

【@江麗麗: Then please shoot a video for me. 】

A moment later, Panda sent Jiang Lili a video of himself eating bamboo shoots.

Jiang Lili: ...

[@江麗麗: Although giant pandas are also cute, I’m talking about Xin Che’s video! ]

After a while, Panda replied: [My brother-in-law is leading people in night cross-country training. I am lying down in the camp eating bamboo now. I can't take pictures! ]

【@Jiang Lili: Okay. 】

Jiang Lili became even more depressed after she finished chatting with Panda.

Since there is nothing important going on recently, why hasn't he returned to the island this year?

Could it be that they had been apart for too long and Xin Che had gradually forgotten about her?

Scumbag!

Wherever she looked, memories of her and Xin Che would pop up.

In front of the window, Xin Che half leaned on the bed, smiling gently and asking her to get more sun. When she stayed in bed, Xin Che carried her downstairs for breakfast. In front of the dressing table, Xin Che tied her hair...

No, I can't think about it anymore!

During the one or two months when Xin Che was away, Jiang Lili only occasionally felt uncomfortable, but as time went on, she gradually felt tormented.

Only now did she realize that someone had quietly moved into her heart without her noticing.

Now I'm starting to worry about gains and losses.

Jiang Lili sighed, cleared her mind of distracting thoughts, closed her eyes and forced herself to count sheep. She counted many, many sheep before she fell asleep.

*

Jiang Lili got up early and after filling her stomach, she started practicing her shooting skills.

In the past six months, she has become very self-disciplined in her life, exercising on time, and has reached a new level of shooting skills. Not only can she hit the target wherever she points, but every shot can also hit the vital point, but she can also hit moving targets.

It has been five days since she returned to Haizhou Island, and she is still practicing diligently like this every day.

"boom--"

Jiang Lili shot a pheasant that was flying over the eaves and walls. Xin's army deputy general Xu Zishen picked up the pheasant and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Princess, your spear skills are really well-trained!"

Jiang Lili smiled and responded: "I have to thank Brother Xu for his guidance and practice with me."

Xu Zishen noticed the sadness between Jiang Lili's brows and quickly guessed the reason. He sighed in his heart and wondered what the prince was doing. What could be more important than the prince's wife?

If he doesn't come back for the New Year, how will he comfort her when she comes back? Even picking the stars in the sky may not be enough.

"Princess, I have good news for you."

Xu Zishen suddenly remembered what happened last night: "Do you still remember the corrupt official Yang Baoshan who was also exiled?"
