Duan Yanhao’s words sort of served as a reminder for Bai Yaoyao. She had indeed always done things by herself and always worried that her subordinates would not do a good job.
“Thank you, Major, for the pointers.”
Duan Yanhao glanced sideways at Bai Yaoyao. He kept feeling the urge to hug her, and this feeling intensified recently, which explained his urge to speed things up.
Of course, Bai Yaoyao would not know about the inner struggle in Major Duan’s heart. She merely stared at the scenery through the car window throughout the whole journey.
Although the war affected many areas, the North was relatively peaceful. After all, the generals protected the Northern territory quite well.
She could not help but admire how the Duan family chose their territory. It was an area that was easy to defend yet difficult to be attacked. This was very advantageous in war.
Could it be that the Duan family decided to unite Country X right from the start?
However, there was no use thinking about all these now. The Northern army were the victors in the end. Even if Old Master Duan was not the President, Duan Yanhao would become the President as well.
However, she felt that if Duan Yanhao were to become the President, there were bound to be people in the Duan family who would disagree. An internal strife would probably happen as well.
Nonetheless, she was not afraid. She would stand by Duan Yanhao and help him defeat his enemies, just as she did on the battlefield. She would risk her life to fight for him.
As she watched, Bai Yaoyao got tired and fell asleep in the car.
Duan Yanhao closed the part of the window that she left open and turned on the air-con in the car, so she would not catch a cold.
It could be said that in the past, Duan Yanhao did not care much about taking care of himself. After all, as a soldier, he had to adjust to all kinds of harsh conditions, so he would not treat himself like a person to be cared for.
However, Bai Yaoyao was different. He seemed to naturally learn how to take care of her.
When Bai Yaoyao woke up, she found herself lying in a huge, spacious bed. The whole room was ridiculously huge as well.
She could not get used to it.
She recalled that she slept in the car, then looked down and saw that her clothes had been changed, which made her sit up immediately.
“Yaoyao, you’re awake?”
“Did you change my clothes for me?”
“No. I wanted to change it for you, but I was afraid that you would get angry at me, so I asked Sixth Aunt to change your clothes for you. I was afraid that you would not feel comfortable sleeping in those clothes. These pajamas are clean and new, and they have been washed as well.”
Although she was touched by Duan Yanhao’s attentiveness, something was not right. His Sixth Aunt changed her clothes for her?
“Yanhao, did you treat your Sixth Aunt like your helper?”
“You will be my wife next time. It’s very normal for Sixth Aunt to help you change your clothes.”
Bai Yaoyao almost choked on her own saliva, making her cough several times.
However, Major Duan got nervous. “Yaoyao, are you feeling unwell again? I adjusted the air-con to a suitable temperature already. Where do you feel uncomfortable?”
“No, I’m fine. I only felt a little shocked.” She really wanted to find a hole to jump in for some peace and quiet. Duan Yanhao’s Sixth Aunt, wasn’t that Duan Xinya?
That elegant and charismatic woman was Old Master Duan’s sixth daughter. She actually changed her clothes for her!
Bai Yaoyao really felt like crying. She did not know how to face her next time.
As if she thought of something, Bai Yaoyao was stunned for a moment before she asked, “Yanhao, this can’t be… your Grandfather’s house?”
“What Grandfather’s house? This is the headquarters. Don’t worry, I’m here and can handle everything. Once you’re awake, we can discuss our wedding.”
Bai Yaoyao’s hands that were holding onto the covers trembled. Did it need to be so soon? He should at least let her be mentally prepared!
“Yanhao, that… that…”
Duan Yanhao walked over and sat beside Bai Yaoyao. He rubbed her brows in a comforting manner and said, “Yaoyao, don’t be nervous. Trust me. Didn’t you meet them before? Why are you so awkward now?”
