Military Strategist Lu, Your Wife Is Running Away

[Revised multiple times. The official, error-free version is only available on Jinjiang Literature City. Thank you for your support!]

Everyone knew that Lu Li, the strategist of the Yeliang Camp, was a peerless gentleman: elegant and refined, courteous and proper with everyone.

Naturally, Jiang Yun couldn't help fantasizing about him.

She became his student, pestered him to teach her military strategy, and studied diligently every day. She braved countless dangers to seek medicine for him at Medicine King Valley, and protected him with all her might when an avalanche struck...

But no matter how much she did, he remained cool and distant, polite yet aloof, like the bright moon in the sky: visible, but forever out of reach!

Later, she saw him standing with Gu Mengzhou, composing poetry and painting together, laughing and talking with gentle grace. They looked like a perfect match, like a pair of immortals. Jiang Yun began to lose heart.

Fine. I was young and foolish before, and I must have bothered you a lot.

But just as she was about to put her head down and focus on her career, why did he suddenly object?

Seeing her discussing military strategy and laughing with a group of young officers, he seemed to turn cold. He leaned over her, pinning her to a corner, and said in a husky voice, one word at a time, "Yun'er, whatever you do, see it through to the end..."

His eyes were brimming with turbulent, barely restrained emotion, but he seemed afraid of frightening her. In the end, he only sighed and softened his voice. "It was my fault as your teacher for not teaching you properly. It won't happen again... All right?"

All right?!

Forget it. If I can't afford to provoke him, I can at least avoid him!
