Falling in Love Online with an Ancient General

Chapter 7

"Mom and Dad aren't home again, you don't need to pretend, hurry up and eat!"

Feng Qingyi didn't even look up, "I'm not hungry, you eat yourself."

"...I'll only call you once, if you don't eat you can starve." Feng Qingci closed the door and left.

He didn't know what insanity she was in today, writing homework so intensely that she wouldn't even eat.

Although he said he would let her starve, in the end Feng Qingci still portioned out a bowl of rice and some dishes for her and brought it over.

"Feng Qingyi, can't you finish eating before writing? It's not like school starts tomorrow, why are you in such a hurry?"

"Thank you! I have to finish this in the next few days."

The effect of the quick-witted pill only lasted three days, and if she didn't seize the time, it would just be a waste of her points.

Feng Qingci originally thought Feng Qingyi was just saying it casually, but he didn't expect this state to actually last for three days.

One night, Feng Qingci wanted to go to the kitchen for a glass of water, and as he passed by Feng Qingyi's room, he noticed that the light in her room was still on, so he gently pushed open the door.

What he didn't expect was that Feng Qingyi was still sitting properly at her desk, writing something.

Feng Qingci didn't quite understand, did she really need to work day and night for an assignment?

Her intensity was even greater than when she was preparing for the college entrance exam, what was she aiming for?

"Feng Qingyi, are you insane, not sleeping in the middle of the night."

"I can't sleep." The effect of this pill was really too powerful, not only was it photographic memory, but she also had abundant energy, so she simply couldn't sleep, otherwise she wouldn't have gotten up to study.

"Take it easy, or you might suddenly die!"

"Why are you up in the middle of the night, coming to me?"

"I can't be bothered to manage you, you don't eat properly, you don't sleep, you must be possessed!"

"You're the one who's possessed, you go back to sleep!"

Feng Qingci went into the kitchen and poured himself a glass of water, he felt he should report the situation to their parents.

Otherwise, when they came back, if something had happened to Feng Qingyi, they would definitely think he had murdered her.

The three days passed quickly, Feng Qingyi completed all her assignments, and even self-studied part of the curriculum for the new semester.

After the drug effect wore off, Feng Qingyi felt utterly exhausted, both physically and mentally, so she lay at home for a day before recovering.

Because she was so absorbed in studying, Feng Qingyi hadn't checked her phone, and it wasn't until she opened her phone again that she saw the message Qin Yuchuan had sent her two days ago.

[Tomorrow I will go to the battlefield, I will contact you again when I return.]

Feng Qingyi looked at the message from two days ago with some concern, the battlefield was a place of indiscriminate killing, she hoped he wouldn't be injured!

She didn't know if he could see the message if she sent one to him now.

But since he said he would contact her again when he returned, she might as well wait for him to reach out.

Although she really wanted the points, compared to human life in war, this was an insignificant thing.

She hoped he would have smooth sailing and a great victory.

Changxu Pass was the last line of defense for Northern Qi, with Tianqi's army stationed outside the pass, and the depleted soldiers of Northern Qi inside.

The newly appointed ruler of Northern Qi was ambitious, single-mindedly wanting to capture cities and expand his territory.

But he did not correctly estimate the gap between his country's military strength and Tianqi's, and no amount of persuasion from his ministers changed his decision.

Qin Yuchuan, the Grand Marshal of the State of Tianqi, this name was known to all on this continent.

He grew up on the frontier, following his father in constant warfare from a young age. He was astute and courageous, even surpassing his father.

In ten years of warfare, he was undefeated. He was the god of Tianqi, for it was because of his presence that this once weak country was able to live in peace, spared from the ravages of war.

The ruler of Northern Qi did not believe in omens, he felt that there was nothing in this world that could not be conquered, even if Qin Yuchuan really was a war god, he too could be ended.

But now the situation was already quite clear, Tianqi's army only needed to attack into Changxu Pass to achieve final victory.

Yet Qin Yuchuan still had not ordered the attack, instead letting his troops encamp not far away, confusing many.

Na Muqi stood by Qin Yuchuan's side, "General, when do we need to wait until?"

"Although the Qi army inside the pass is not formidable, if we can reduce casualties for our army, why not do so?" Qin Yuchuan had clearly already planned everything out.

Na Muqi did not ask further, this young general, no matter how many books and people he had studied, he could not see through him.

"Na Mu, do you think there might be another continent in this world?" Qin Yuchuan suddenly asked.

Na Muqi pondered for a long time, "Perhaps there is, we just don't know about it."

Hearing Na Muqi's words, Qin Yuchuan also fell into thought.

"What are your plans after we return to the capital this time?"

Na Muqi smiled sheepishly.

"What other plans could there be, continue compiling books at the Hanlin Academy, or travel."

"And you, General, you're not young anymore, it's about time you considered getting married and having children, the princess has been looking forward to it!"

When marriage was mentioned, Qin Yuchuan suddenly thought of Feng Qingyi, he had not received any messages from her these past two days, and didn't know if she was still writing assignments.

Na Muqi noticed Qin Yuchuan's gaze, "Does the General already have someone in mind?"

"Not yet."

"When we return to Shengjing, you can go out and take a look, those daughters of prominent officials and nobles, they would surely be delighted if the General was willing."

Qin Yuchuan did not respond, those pampered ladies of prominent families were never what he wanted.

If he were to marry, he wanted to marry a woman who could stand side by side with him, not a frail flower confined to the residence all day.

Na Muqi knew Qin Yuchuan did not like others interfering in his family affairs, but as a friend who had accompanied him in warfare for so long, he still wanted to say a little more.

"General, if one day you encounter a woman who makes your heart move at first sight, then boldly pursue her, do not lose her and then regret it later."

Make one's heart move at first sight, Qin Yuchuan's mind unconsciously conjured up Feng Qingyi's face again.

Her appearance was undoubtedly outstanding, but what attracted him more was the light shining in her eyes.

Her eyes were like pools of pristine mountain snow, crystal clear and undefiled.

Perhaps, he should try to learn more about her, even though they came from different worlds.

Qin Yuchuan took out his phone from his sleeve, but there was no reply from her.

"Marshal, may I ask what that object in your hand is?" asked Na Muqi, his face filled with disbelief.

"This is a phone," Qin Yuchuan replied. "It allows me to communicate with someone thousands of miles away."

Na Muqi shook his head, "I have lived for many years, but I have never heard of such a miraculous device."
