219 Clash with Future 'sFather-in-Law”

 

Ming Hui finished doing his job before walking towards the Fan family residence. Fan Lanying had been staying inside and stayed with her father for a long time. She was excited to see her father save and sound.

"Father, are you going to be a general again?" Fan Lanying asked her father with concerned tone.

Fan Dan shook his head. "I don't have any more soldiers. By what right should I return to the battlefield? The emperor wouldn't want to use a person like me anymore."

Fan Lanying was sad at her father response. "But, you can join the military army again."

Fan Dan shook his head. He was already tired being used by that emperor.After the experience in the prison, he understood full well that the emperor didn't care about him. For him, he had served in the military for years, but what he gets was only a cold shoulder.

Now that the news of their escape had been released, many people might look for them. They were unaware that the three of them were already within the Ming Kingdom territory again. For Fan Dan, it was better if he didn't return at all. He was disappointed with the emperor for not even trying to care about his soldier.

"What is the news from the frontline?"

"The north is lost, the southwest is taken again," Fan Lanying answered.

"The southwest is under Ming Kingdom again?"

This news was really surprising. After losing towards the Yuan Kingdom, how could they manage to grab the territory back?

"Strategist Wu personally came to the territory and lead the soldier from the city along the way to take the city back. He can do it really swiftly and all," Fan Lanying answered truthfully.

Dan Fan thought for a moment before nodding. With the amount of enemy that emperor had made, it is surprising that he could still sit on that throne. The reason was simply because he had capable people around him. One of them was that strategist who can lead the war with ease. Even if it's him, he didn't have the confidence to say that he could beat that strategist.

While talking, they have a guest coming. Ming Hui came in and greeted the two of them.

Looking at her daughter eyes, Dan Fan knew that she fancy this man. Unfortunately, he didn't feel pleased with Ming Hui. From what he knew, this man had hid his gender and acted as a girl for a long time. How could he felt ease when looking at this man?

"Ming Hui, how is the hospital?" Fan Lanying greeted happily.

"It's good," Ming Hui answered amiably. He looked towards Dan Fan with awkward look. Despite they have meet before, this time there was something different. He knew that this man must be displeased with the fact that he liked his daughter.

"Lanying, prepare some tea," Dan Fan ordered.

Fan Lanying wore a sour face, but she still left. Once she left, the atmosphere on the living room change drastically.

"Young man, you sure have guts for deceiving emperor and hiding your gender."

Ming Hui looked back solemnly. "I have my own reason and if I don't hide my gender, with the status of my mother, I'm sure I would have been death."

What Ming Hui said was reasonable. His mother didn't have any status and getting pregnant was only 'an accident'. With him hiding his identity and live as a woman, they would not target him and let him off the hook.

Fan Dan sneered. "What kind of man hiding as a girl? Don't you have any dignity?"

Ming Hui didn't want to be taunted by this man, but he cannot refute that he was indeed, a coward for hiding his identity. The struggle he had for years to live as a girl was a torture that no one can imagine.

"The kind of man who is willing to abandon his real identity in order to live," Ming Hui said with a low voice. "I know you look down on me, but I would not throw away my live pointlessly when I know that I don't have any chance."

From the moment he knew that he was hiding his real gender, he knew that it was a secret he need to hide from the emperor forever. Living suppressing himself, he learned how to be patience and wait for the right moment. It was this patience that led him able to survive all this year hiding his gender and acting in front of the people.

"You treasure your life so much?" Fan Dan looked towards Ming Hui.

"If I don't treasure my life, I won't be able to live to find my happiness," Ming Hui answered. "Life is precious, if you don't alive, you won't be able to experience many things in this world."

He treasures his life and those around him. That was the other reason why he became doctor. He wanted to be able to save those around him. From losing his mother because of poison, he didn't want to experience the same thing anymore.

Fan Dan knew that the boy in front of him was serious. He had seen the boy skill as doctor and he cannot say that he was not impressed. Above all of it, he didn't want his daughter to marry someone who was selfish. But upon hearing his next line, he knew that the boy didn't only treasured his life, he also treasured his friends life.

Still he looked towards Ming Hui with a hard face. "I don't want my daughter to be with a feminine guy like you."

He is 100% man, alright…. Ming Hui didn't know how to convince this old man about that fact, but he didn't have any interest towards other man. The only one whom he fancy was only one girl, Fan Lanying and no one else.

Before he could say anything else, Fan Lanying had come inside with a tray in her hand. She looked towards both of them and put the tray on the table before serving the tea to Ming Hui. Although her way of pouring it is a bit inelegant, the two men already know that she was indeed not used to serve.

"I can do it, you don't have to," Ming Hui said helplessly.

Fan Lanying grinned. "I want to."

"Fine," he can only accept it.

Fan Dan sighed. What had he missed out from the time on the military? Seeing the smile on Fan Lanying face, he knew, it will be a hard thing to convince her.

Fan Lanying looked towards her father. "Father, I want to marry Ming Hui."

Ming Hui who was about to drink the tea and Fan Dan both choked on the air and coughed violently.
