In the past four years, many times Yi Lei wished to go to Xi Manor and take his Jiejie away. It was only because General Li declared that no one will go and take Li Rui away from Xi Manor, he couldn't do so. He respected his Uncle Li a lot.
But living in Imperial City when knowing that both of his elder sisters were not happy where they were living was very difficult for him.
So Yi Lei decided to become a soldier and go to the battlefield. His mother had cried very much, had pleaded to him to not do this but Yi Lei only had this way to maintain his sanity.
Because if he lived in the Imperial City then he knew one day he would go to Xi Manor or to the Imperial Palace to fight for his sisters.

Li Rui continued to stare at Yi Lei's face. She raised her foot and slowly walked towards him.
When she was finally in front of him, Yi Lei smiled forcefully and asked
"Did I finally scare Jiejie?"
