Lu Yichen hugged Wu Yaqing, showing a rare smile, "I sneaked in, let's not wake anyone up."
Wu Yaqing immediately subdued her breathing and joy, "It must have been hard with so many guards outside."
Lu Yichen, skilled in martial arts, didn't see the guards as a challenge, "It's a small matter, but seeing you indeed wasn't easy."
Wu Yaqing felt somewhat embarrassed, "My mother is too strict."
Lu Yichen comforted her in return, "It's okay, your mother is just concerned about you. But don't worry, I will marry you openly and honorably."
Wu Yaqing gazed at Lu Yichen intently, "I'll wait for you."
Lu Yichen's eyes softened with affection, "Your uncle has already arranged everything for me. I'll be setting out to suppress bandits in a few days, so I won't be able to visit you for a while."
