The silence inside the camp was deafening.
"Everything I did always was for my daughter's protection."
General Li whispered and Xi Ying just looked at him coldly.
"Even after knowing how dangerous it was for my clan, I threatened the Emperor himself."
General Li looked at Xi Ying.
"Do you think it was easy for me to marry my daughter to you? A man who defiled my daughter without marrying her? A man who disliked my daughter because of me?
Even after knowing everything, I still married my daughter to you. Because she could only remain safe that way."
Xi Ying frowned. Somehow he felt that the General words carried more meaning. A few moments later, his frown loosened but his heart had a sinking feeling.
"What do you mean, General? Say clearly."
He just wished whatever he was thinking was not true.
General Li's face was serious as he told Xi Ying what he had always hidden from everyone.
So who is trying to kill Li Rui since her birth? What is the truth General Li hid from Li Rui?
