Chapter 2050: Side Story 32: Clouds Disperse
Inside the room, Liu Jin solemnly performed a grand ceremony for Wufu, looking at her with red eyes and called out excitedly, "Miss."
"Alright, you’re a grown man now, even a manager. How can your subordinates respect you if they see you like this?" Wufu raised her hand with a smile, examining him closely, and said, "You’ve grown so much, taller than me now."
The little boy from back then had grown up, a boy of twelve or thirteen, with delicate features, and it was his growth phase. He shot up rapidly, combined with regular physical exercise and a good diet, he looked nearly six feet tall.
Liu Jin scratched his head with a smile and said, "I’ve been eating too much normally."
Wufu laughed heartily, "Things aren’t like they were back then. Eat as much as you can, grow into a towering tree that stands firm."
Liu Jin’s face turned red, feeling even more embarrassed, he muttered, "Miss still likes teasing people."
Wufu sighed, "It’s a good thing you’ve grown up."
Upon hearing this, Liu Jin’s eyes turned red again. Yes, if it weren’t for meeting Miss back then, he would have been sold to some filthy place and tortured to death.
But after following Miss, he gained a family, becoming a person. Even just a servant, yet no master treated him as well, viewing servants as family.
He was living comfortably, with authority and wealth. Outside, everyone addressed him as Young Master Xiao Liu.
This was all the honor granted by Miss!
"Without Miss, there would be no Liu Jin today," Liu Jin said excitedly.
Wufu was about to speak when the Little Bun on the bed whimpered, so she picked him up.
"Is this the young master?" Liu Jin glanced at him, knelt down, and said, "Liu Jin pays his respects to the young master."
Wufu said, "He doesn’t know anything yet, your salute doesn’t mean much to him."
"Even so, the necessary formalities must be observed," Liu Jin said.
Wufu smiled softly, checked her son, found he was uncomfortable after relieving himself, dealt with it, and spoke with Liu Jin while holding the child.
"Did your uncle find you? Where is he?"
Liu Jin nodded, his meticulously pretty face said, "Huayang is under martial law. Uncle couldn’t enter the city and was delayed outside for more than a day. If I hadn’t gone to handle something, I wouldn’t have met Uncle."
He explained the encounter with Zhou Xueli, first returning to the city to arrange some matters, and then hurried to see Wufu.
"Uncle is traveling by carriage naturally slower than us on fast horses, so he’s still behind."
Wufu breathed a sigh of relief, relieved that all was well.
"Miss, Uncle didn’t say much in detail, what’s happening?" Liu Jin asked hesitantly.
"I am leading a part of the troops in the attack on the Shu region."
Upon hearing this, Liu Jin’s expression changed. He looked at the young man Li Yu standing beside him, who nodded and went out to keep watch.
"This person looks good," Wufu praised.
Liu Jin curled his lips and said, "He’s been following me for quite some time, a capable assistant." He didn’t elaborate on Li Yu’s situation, understanding the importance and the gravity of the situation. The master spoke of leading troops, yet was hiding here with her child and only had Xiao Qi by her side, indicating there must be a story behind it.
Wufu also understood the urgency of the situation, so she briefly recounted the series of events she had encountered.
"... I have been away from the troop for quite some time, and I believe the Bei camp is searching for me. Additionally, the people from Nanyue will not give up looking either. Liu Jin, we cannot let the people from Nanyue find us first," Wufu looked at Liu Jin and said, "You have been establishing connections in Nanyue these years. Now, activate this line and use my Token to seek out the generals of the Bei camp..."
