An Jing looked at Du Aya and found it amusing: "Are you happy?"
"A little." Du Aya nodded honestly. After all, everyone had always thought she was an ugly girl. Even her parents said she didn’t look right. But now, soone genuinely believed she was good-looking. How could she not feel happy?
An Jing glanced at Qi Tengfei, then whispered to Du Aya: "General Qi is still angry with you."
As soon as Du Aya heard this, she imdiately took a few big steps to Qi Tengfei and apologized: "General Qi, I’m sorry. Just now, I thought you were mocking . That was my fault."
Qi Tengfei was not a petty man. Seeing Du Aya straightforwardly and heartily apologize, he accepted it, no longer angry, and even smiled as he asked: "Then, what I said just now...?"
Qi Gaoda imdiately beca nervous, afraid that Du Aya would choose soone other than himself.
Du Aya had long thought she would never get married. Even though Qi Tengfei had ntioned earlier that she could choose one of his four sons, Du Aya still felt it would be better not to choose anyone.
Her focus was now on the military camp.
She loved the military camp life, much better than slaughtering pigs at ho.
So, she clasped her hands together and declared: "If General Qi doesn’t mind, A Ya would be honored to be your adopted daughter."
Qi Tengfei, upon hearing this, imdiately beca overjoyed and patted Du Aya’s shoulders enthusiastically: "Good, good, good! I’ve finally fulfilled a wish—now I have a daughter."
Qi Gaoda felt a bit disappointed but soon regained his spirits. An adopted sister was still good; at least their relationship had advanced. Maybe, over ti, she could still beco his wife.
Hearing Qi Tengfei’s agreent, Du Aya promptly knelt down without hesitation, saying: "Father above, please accept A Ya’s bow!"
Qi Tengfei was so happy that he couldn’t stop smiling. He quickly helped Du Aya up, while An Jing and Liu Buli offered their congratulations to him.
Soon after, Qi Tengfei noticed: "I left in a hurry and didn’t bring anything with ..."
His sharp eyes caught sight of his eldest son Qi Gaoda’s waist, where a Blood Jade was hanging. Qi Tengfei imdiately rushed over, grabbed the Blood Jade, and handed it to Du Aya: "This is your recognition gift from your adopted father. From this day forward, you are my adopted daughter."
Qi Gaoda: "..." Dad, that jade was sothing Mom said I should give to my future wife...
Du Aya wasn’t soone who cared about details. She saw that Qi Tengfei’s recognition gift had been taken from Qi Gaoda, but she didn’t mind and happily accepted the gift, fully acknowledging him as her adopted father.
Du Aya did know a bit about Qi Tengfei’s character and truly respected this General Qi in her heart. To be recognized as his adopted daughter genuinely made her quite happy.
It was at this mont that a male soldier spotted the silhouettes of two other male soldiers, and the incense stick symbolizing the ti limit was about to burn out.
That male soldier imdiately cheered aloud.
Clearly, the male soldier had not seen Liu Feifei’s silhouette yet, so even though their win might not have been impressive, at least they still won.
The female soldiers beca even more anxious upon seeing this.
Seeing that the incense stick was almost burned out and Liu Feifei was still nowhere in sight, An Jing and Ye Zhi frowned. Losing this first round of the competition wouldn’t be ideal...
Xiao Changyi remained expressionless, as though none of this had anything to do with him. He sat quietly drinking tea. When he noticed An Jing sitting anxiously next to him, he handed her his teacup.
An Jing took the tea and downed it in one gulp.
