The corners of Yun Ran’s mouth curled up as if she had casually chatted about another topic.

“Huo Chanyi should be able to get married at her age. Eldest Uncle, do you have any suitable men by your side? For example, a young top scholar or a young and promising general. Please help me keep an eye out. The little girl’s family is no longer around. We have to help with these matters.”

“Talk about marriage?” Bai Ze frowned. He was about to talk about how young the little girl was, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that she was indeed at the age to talk about marriage.

However, that little girl’s personality was like a little rabbit. Her eyes would turn red at the slightest provocation.

Those top scholars and courtesans were each more shrewd than the other. The little general reckoned that the way they danced with knives and spears would scare her to tears.

Seeing him frown, Yun Ran continued, “With Huo Chanyi’s personality, if you want to find someone, you have to find someone who treats her wholeheartedly. There’s no such thing as a bunch of women infighting in the backyard. Otherwise, she’ll definitely be bullied.”

“If she likes medicine, poison, and medicine, then this man has to support her to do what she likes, and not force her to stay at home to take care of her husband and children. This kind of man is too difficult to find. Eldest Uncle, don’t you think so?”

Bai Ze’s furrowed brows had yet to relax.

“There’s no hurry. I’ll ask her myself.”

Yun Ran felt that it was about time and did not continue to ask.

That night, Bai Ze went to look for Huo Chanyi.

The little girl was holding medicinal herbs in her hand and concocting them. There was a faint medicinal fragrance on her body that made one feel comfortable.

“General Bai ze?”

Huo Chanyi was frightened by his sudden appearance. She remembered the conversation she had with Yun Ran during the day and retreated like a frightened rabbit. She was so nervous that her neck turned red.

“Why are you hiding? Do I look that scary?’

As Bai Ze spoke, he touched his face. Before he came, he had specially washed up and taken a shower.

“No, I’m just timid.”

Huo Chanyi’s voice was muffled, and her face couldn’t help but heat up under his gaze.

She had such thoughts about General Bai Ze.

Would General Bai Ze hate her because of this?

However, before Yun Ran left today, she said to her, “It’s not shameful to like someone. If you don’t want to leave yourself with regrets, express them bravely. At worst, you’ll be rejected.”

Huo Chanyi did not know much about love, but she could understand what

Yun Ran was saying.

She didn’t want to leave any regrets in her life.

It was just that Huo Chanyi didn’t know how to express herself in front of the person she liked.

Actually, after Yun Ran left, she had thought a lot about it herself.

She had originally planned to leave the General’s Residence. She wanted to tell General Bai Ze her feelings before she left.

That was because she did not know if she would have the chance to say these words to him face to face after she left.

“You’re indeed quite timid. So, are you sure you want to move out alone?” Bai Ze stared at her with his dark eyes and said with pressure, “Although this is the Imperial City, it’s not as safe as you think. There have been cases of robbery and murder at night.”

“You’re a beautiful young lady. When you go out, you’ll be like a steamed bun in the eyes of thieves.”

Bai Ze was indeed trying to scare her.

If she really insisted on moving out, he would never leave her alone outside..
