Rebirth of the High Family's Beloved

Hua Yingliao then noticed the young and petite girl sitting next to Jiang Qingqing.

She has fair and delicate skin, red lips and white teeth, and her long black hair is combed into a bun like the palace maids. The glittering pearls and jade on her temples make the girl even more radiant.

Suddenly he thought of his daughter.

Unlike ordinary girls, his daughter has lived with him in the military camp since she was eight years old.

Girls of other families' age all wear pretty dresses and put on makeup to make themselves look beautiful, but his daughter has never worn women's clothes since she was eight years old. She wears military uniform all day long, with no makeup on, and is always ready for battle.

It was not until her daughter's wedding day that she actually dressed up as a woman.

When he looked at the beautiful girl in front of him again, he couldn't help but imagine in his heart that if his daughter were still alive, she would definitely look as beautiful as this in women's clothes.

Unfortunately... there is no if.

The grief that arose in Hua Yingliao's heart made him look away and he no longer dared to look at Yan Ci.

Because he turned his head away, he couldn't see the joy and nostalgia in Yan Ci's eyes.

Yan Ci didn't expect to see Hua Yingchou here. She heard that her father had resigned his military power after her death and lived in the general's mansion and never went out.

She was already extremely happy the last time she saw her brother Hua Cishu. She did not expect that she would be able to see her father and brother again on New Year's Eve.

Is this a New Year's gift?

At this moment, Yan Ci was extremely grateful to God for giving her the chance to be reborn.

Even if we can't recognize each other, it would be great to be able to see each other from a distance.

Hua Cishu did not recognize Yan Ci. He just glanced at Yan Ci's appearance casually when he rescued him, so he did not react much when he saw Yan Ci.

Yan Ci's eyes were fixed on Hua Ci Shu and did not move away. Her heart moved slightly. This was a great opportunity to get closer to her brother.

Thinking of this, Yan Ci immediately stood up, poured a glass of wine and walked towards Hua Ci Tree.

Hua Cishu is an introverted person. He doesn't talk much even to people he is familiar with, let alone to a stranger like Yan Ci.

He pursed his lips tightly and watched Yan Ci walk up to him with a smile on his face, "General Hua, thank you for saving me in the alley a few days ago. This glass of wine is for you."

After saying that, he raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

Hua Cishu was a little confused. After looking at Yan Ci twice more, he found that he did look a little familiar. He carefully recalled the alley that Yan Ci mentioned, and then he remembered what he did unintentionally when he passed by the alley some time ago.

Being toasted by a girl, Hua Cishu couldn't remain indifferent, so he could only stand up and toast back, saying lightly: "No problem."

Hua Yingchou had calmed down by now, and looked at Yan Ci with calm eyes.

He looked at Yan Ci, then turned to look at Yan Tonglin, and said softly, "Miss Yan is such a generous girl. Lord Yan is so lucky to have such a daughter."

Yan Tonglin laughed and said quickly: "Young General is also a rare talent."

After Yan Ci toasted, she did not return to her seat immediately. She knew her brother's temper very well. Although he was cold to others, he was a soft-hearted person and could not resist any persuasion.

She placed the wine glass in front of Hua Cishu and said, "Major General, please pour me a glass. I will toast you again."

Hua Cishu raised his eyes and glanced at Yan Ci, only to see that her expression was serious. Only the way she stared at him without blinking made him frown.

Are all girls nowadays like this, staring at men so blatantly?

It’s just that the other party’s parents and his own father were present, so he couldn’t say much, but he didn’t pour the wine either.

"My father doesn't drink, so you don't need to toast him."

Hua Cishu’s blunt refusal made Yan Ci smile even more deeply. His brother was as straightforward as ever and didn’t give anyone any chance to get close to him.

But she is not the kind of person who gives up so easily.

"Major General, the move you used to save me last time was so powerful. I have always wanted to learn it. Major General, are you willing to teach me?"

Hua Cishu's face was full of the words "I don't want to", but the quality engraved in his bones prevented him from saying it out loud.

Not to mention that he had long forgotten what moves he used to save people, even if he remembered he wouldn't teach them.

With a cold face, he replied, "You can't learn it."

In other words, Yan Ci could listen to what Hua Cishu said. If it was someone else, Yan Ci would probably jump up on the spot and show him the spear.

Let him open his eyes and see clearly, not only can she do it, but she is also very good at it.

But the person who was rejecting her was her brother, her own brother, so she could only silently endure being looked down upon.

Just as she was thinking of pretending to be weak and begging for protection, she heard Jiang Qingqing calling her in a light voice.

"Aci."

Yan Ci looked back and saw Jiang Qingqing waving at her, asking her to go back.

Yan Ci felt a little regretful. It turned out that his brother was not easy to conquer.

In front of so many people, she couldn't continue to pursue Hua Ci Shu, so she could only go back to Jiang Qingqing first.

Jiang Qingqing saw Yan Ci sitting next to her again, her eyes still glancing over there, then looking at the handsome General Hua, she couldn't help but ask Yan Ci in a low voice.

"Ah Ci, are you interested in that young general Hua?"

Yan Ci was just about to put a piece of pork belly towards his mouth with chopsticks. When he heard Jiang Qingqing's question, his hand shook and the piece of pork belly fell onto the table.

The meat that was about to reach my mouth was gone.

The corners of Yan Ci's mouth twitched. She had finally found a piece of pork belly with just the right amount of fat and lean meat in the plate full of vegetables, but she hadn't tasted it yet.

Compared to the regret of not having the meat, Jiang Qingqing's question made Yan Ci smile nonchalantly, "Mom, what are you thinking about? I am just grateful to General Hua for saving me last time."

"Save you? What kind of danger did you encounter? When did it happen? Why didn't you tell me? Tell me quickly, what happened..."

Jiang Qingqing's attention was quickly attracted by the fact that Yan Ci was rescued. As for whether or not she liked General Hua, it was not worth mentioning compared to Yan Ci's safety.

Yan Ci downplayed part of the incident in the alley, omitting the fact that he beat someone up, and focused on how he was rescued.

After hearing this, Jiang Qingqing stroked her chest and said she was very lucky. She also asked Yan Ci to bring a few more people with him when he went out in the future to prevent such incidents from happening again.

Yan Ci responded vaguely, his attention completely focused on the food on the table.

She watched the singing and dancing in the center while eating heartily. Today was the happiest day of her life since her rebirth.

With her closest relatives from both lives by her side, she felt very satisfied to be able to chat and drink happily together.

She is not a person who likes drinking, but today, only drinking can express the joy in her heart.

Yan Ci drank one cup after another, gradually becoming drunk, and his fair cheeks slowly turned red.

By the time Jiang Qingqing discovered Yan Ci was drunk, it was already too late.
