Lin Xiaofei sighed when she heard what he had to say. The terms she laid out to him was to make sure to restrict his time out there in the northern borders and to make him come back as soon as possible.
Although she said she will marry someone else, but Lin Xiaofei know that no one could replace him anymore. However, no one knows what will happen if that tiny chance of him not coming back happen. Both of them knew that with the people eyeing both the Qu and Lin family, it is possible that more will covet things that was not theirs, after all, what can a single woman whose husband do, anyway?
Regardless of Qu Xing Xu's existence in her life, if things were to go awry in the north and he was rendered wounded and unable to come back, the imperial palace, the nobles, and everyone who wanted to make Lin Xiaofei and Qu Xing Xu pay for whatever grievances they had towards them will use this chance to separate them.
