Falling in Love Online with an Ancient General

"That\'s not necessary, I can go back by myself," Qin Yuchuan insisted.

Feng Qingyi asked, "Then tell me how you\'re going to get back?"

"I\'ll go straight back to the military camp," Qin Yuchuan said.

This was indeed a good method, to avoid getting lost, "Alright then, I\'ll head up first. You should go back early."

Just as Feng Qingyi was about to enter the company, Qin Yuchuan grabbed her, "Can I go up with you?"

"...I\'m going to work, I can\'t bring you along. In a couple of days when I\'m off, if you have time too, I\'ll take you out to play," Feng Qingyi said.

Qin Yuchuan looked a bit disappointed, "Then when do you finish in the evening?"

"I get off work at 5:30 PM, but if there\'s something special it might be a bit later. I\'ll send you a message when I get back, okay?"

"Alright, you go up then!" Qin Yuchuan said.

Feng Qingyi waved at him and walked into the company.

Qin Yuchuan stood at the entrance for a while before slowly leaving.

In the Tianqi Military Camp, the army had already assembled, ready to return to the capital.

Yan Yang and Yan Chi had been waiting outside Qin Yuchuan\'s tent for a long time, but hadn\'t seen him.

Yan Chi asked, "Where has the General gone?"

"I didn\'t see him leave. Now the army is fully assembled, just waiting for his order to set out," Yan Yang shook his head.

Yan Chi thought for a moment, "He must have gone to find Miss Qingyi, right?"

"In the past few days, the General was busy day and night to end the battle as soon as possible. Now that he can finally rest, it\'s not surprising that he went to find Miss Qingyi," Yan Yang said.

Yan Chi suggested, "Now that the army is assembled, you should go and let General Lin lead the army to set out first!"

"But what about our General?" Yan Yang asked.

Just then, Qin Yuchuan walked out of the tent, "Let them set out first, I\'ll return on my own."

"General, this is not according to protocol..." Yan Chi said.

The journey back was long, at least half a month. If they encountered some delays along the way, it might take even longer.

With all that travel time, he\'d rather spend it accompanying Qingyi.

"You all go back together, no need to wait for me. I have my own plans."

...

Feng Qingyi, who was working in the office, heard her phone ring. She opened it to find a message from Qin Yuchuan.

[Yuchuan: What do you want to eat for lunch?]

[Qingyi: I\'m eating at the company cafeteria for lunch.]

[Yuchuan: Oh.]

[Qingyi: Why are you suddenly asking what I want to eat?]

[Yuchuan: I wanted to bring you lunch.]

[Qingyi: Bring me lunch? Are you going to cook it yourself?]

[Yuchuan: Yes.]

[Qingyi: I remember there\'s not much food at home. You\'re not planning to cook at your place and bring it over, are you?]

[Yuchuan: ...]

[Qingyi: If you want to cook, let\'s go to the supermarket together in the evening and cook at home together. You finally have time to rest, so relax properly.]

[Yuchuan: Okay.]

[Qingyi: That\'s settled then. You rest well, and I\'ll message you when I get off work in the evening.]

Feng Qingyi put her phone aside and suddenly realized her boss was standing behind her, seemingly for quite a while.

So, she had been caught playing with her phone at work!

"There\'s a meeting later, come with me."

Feng Qingyi quickly nodded, "Alright."

Feng Qingyi was currently working at a financial holding company, which was quite renowned in the industry. When she initially submitted her resume, she was just giving it a try.

At that time, there were many others interviewing alongside her. She didn\'t know what she said that impressed the interviewer, but she successfully got the offer.

However, after actually starting work, Feng Qingyi discovered that everyone else in this building was a big shot, except for her.

Even the male colleague who was hired with her had previously interned at a large company and quickly made a name for himself in the company.

Faced with a lot of things she didn\'t understand, she could only learn slowly, striving to do her daily work to the best of her ability.

After some time passed like this, she gradually got the hang of things and finally wasn\'t as busy and confused as she was at the beginning.

Later, because a client came to the company, she was forced to receive them. Somehow, she suddenly caught the eye of her current boss, Manager Luo, who started taking her on business trips every day. She ended up becoming a jack-of-all-trades assistant, incidentally gaining some worldly experience.

After the morning\'s work was over, Feng Qingyi went to the company cafeteria.

After get

ting her food, she found a seat and sat down. She took out her phone and saw that Qin Yuchuan had sent her several more messages.

It seemed he was really free today. After replying to his messages, Feng Qingyi took a photo of her meal and sent it to him.

"Sending messages to your boyfriend?" Luo Yang sat down opposite Feng Qingyi.

Feng Qingyi nodded slightly, "Yes."

Luo Yang: "I thought you were single and was planning to introduce someone to you. Looks like that\'s not necessary. College classmate?"

Feng Qingyi shook her head, "No, he\'s been working for a long time."

"Oh, I see! Have you considered when to get married?" Luo Yang asked again.

Feng Qingyi felt that her boss seemed unusually interested in her personal life today. Usually, apart from work, she rarely inquired about her private life.

"We haven\'t discussed that yet."

Luo Yang: "You could start considering these matters now."

Feng Qingyi stared at her blankly, "Isn\'t it too early?"

"How could it be? My husband and I got married right after graduating from university. Now we\'re thirty, our careers are doing well, our child is in elementary school, and we have enough time to enjoy our own lives," Luo Yang said.

Feng Qingyi looked at Luo Yang carefully. She was tall and slim, with exquisite makeup and elegant attire. She didn\'t look at all like someone who had given birth.

"Manager Luo, you even have a child!"

Luo Yang smiled and said, "I have a daughter who just started first grade this year. Can\'t tell at all, can you?"

Feng Qingyi nodded. It wasn\'t just that she couldn\'t tell; she had thought Luo Yang was only in her twenties!

After a day\'s work, Feng Qingyi walked out of the company carrying her bag.

She was about to use her phone to call a taxi when she looked up and saw Qin Yuchuan walking towards her.

"Why are you here?"

"I came to pick you up from work."

Feng Qingyi handed her bag to him, "How did you get here?"

"I took a taxi," Qin Yuchuan said.

Feng Qingyi asked, "A taxi? Do you have money?"

Qin Yuchuan pulled out a handful of hundred-yuan bills from his sleeve and handed them to Feng Qingyi, "This is the money I earned today."

Feng Qingyi took them and counted. There were actually nineteen bills. "Where did you earn this money?"
