Chapter 80 - The Yu Family's Love (2)

"Fine, you two go and pack. Find your third brother and see to it that your sister is found safe as well. Bring some men to protect you. Travel light and be prepared for any unexpected events. The Emperor and the Crown Prince are firm on bringing your sister back before the wedding date. Until now, they didn't postpone the marriage date." Prime Minister Yu grimaced. He had been quiet mostly in court, trying to avoid as much attention towards him. He had been fully supporting the Emperor's wishes.

As if their hearts had seen the light, their eyes glittered with excitement! Zheqi and Zhefei smiled at each other and cupped their fist to their father.

"We will definitely see to it that Little Lulu is safe, father!" Zheqi bowed.

"And we'll make sure to properly teach Third Brother a lesson! We will not let you down, father!" Zhefei smirked as he bowed as well.

"En. Go and make haste with the preparation. I'll go write a request to the Emperor to let Zheqi have a leave from the Army." Prime Minister Yu got up and left the Ying Courtyard.

After their father left, Zheqi sighed in happiness. "Second Brother, this is good news!"

"Indeed. Just that, I don't believe father to instantly send us out." Zhefei rubbed his chin. His beard was starting to grow again. He had always keep it clean-shaven since their Little Lulu doesn't like a bearded man. Except for their father, since their Mother likes it. "My instinct tells me that there's a different reason for it."

"En. Let's get ready then. I'll get our men prepared, you go and handle the things we needed for travel. We'll follow Little Lulu's direction and head east." Zheqi ordered.

"Yes, Big Brother. I'll go ahead then." Zhefei then left the Ying Courtyard.

Seeing his Second Brother left, It finally dawn in him that he was going to see his Little Lulu. Although their Third Brother was too obviously overprotective with their little sister, Him and Zhefei were the same. They just do it silently or in secret. They too had a sister-complex, they just didn't want to admit it. Their Little Lulu was their little treasure. Though they had two other younger siblings after their Little Lulu, for the three, Little Lulu was their first treasure.

In Huang City, Zhefan felt a cold chill on his spine. He instantly felt scared that something bad will happen to him. For some reason, he didn't feel like leaving this city. As if his guts were telling him to stay and wait. He didn't exactly know what it was, just that it felt important.

From the news that he gathered, there was a lady in red robes in the city. Unfortunately, that lady in red wasn't his sister. Although he wasn't as intellectual as his Second Brother, he always went with his instincts. He had a feel about things when things didn't go with his plans. But since he was too tired, too worried and restless lately, these instincts of him dwindle.

It was only after a few days of resting when he finally felt that someone was watching his every move. Who were they? Still, as long as they didn't do any bad things with him then he would pretend that they weren't they. By the looks of things, they didn't mean any harm. Unfortunately, It was too late when he realized who they were. It was until he reached Huang City when he finally put the puzzles together.

He had brought trouble to himself. Something that he can't remedy in an instant. So instead of moving towards east again, he decided to stay in Huang City. He casually looks around as if taking a vacation. Bought things that his little sister might like or need. Oh, how he misses his Little Lulu. Zhefan sighed, he could only wish that she was perfectly safe and sound.

Just then, something caught his attention while he was walking around the City. It had already been three days since Yu Ronglou had settled in BaiFeng Academy. As soon as Zhefan saw this person, his body froze. That person wave at him and turned around. He didn't really fully recognized the person but his instincts tell him that it's important.

Zhefan looked around to check his surroundings if he was being followed before following that person. As they reached a dark and secluded, only then that person stops walking. Zhefan stops a couple of steps behind the person and says, "Who are you?"
