The ambassador restrained his anger, thinking about her beloved dog being here, she wouldn’t do anything drastic. She had already delayed quite a bit, and shouldn’t let this incident drag on further, otherwise that master would surely get angry, so he quickly joined the fray.
anwhile, Yiyi took advantage of their distraction, imdiately ducked behind a pillar, and then hid in an empty corner. She hastily took off the conspicuous coat, changed into other clothes, donned a wig, and completely transford her appearance, then casually and confidently strolled out of the hall.
By the ti the ambassador noticed, she had already disappeared without a trace. He quickly sent people to find the woman in the red coat, but she was nowhere to be found.
During his negligence, the little treacherous rascal atball, who caused chaos in the embassy, suddenly jumped out of the window and ran joyfully with all four legs.
Yiyi was already waiting outside. Seeing atball slip out successfully, she delightedly hugged it, "You little thing are quite perceptive, doing just what you’re told. How clever you are! Good job, little one."
atball imdiately wore a very pleased expression, extending its silly little head to affectionately nuzzle against Yiyi.
Yiyi didn’t dare to linger either, hurriedly holding it and leaving.
Ordinary people couldn’t leave the city now, and Yiyi dared not go to any conspicuous places where she might be found. She randomly found a bar and, along with the surrounding citizens, paid attention to the developnt of the war situation.
With advanced technology here, they could receive live news updates about the war at any ti. The intense battle scenes blazing with war fire completely shocked Yiyi, who had lived in a peaceful era.
Although war scenes in movies are thrilling, actually being in such turmoil and watching the brutal scenes of war made her feel rather uncomfortable.
And the people around in Lily City, watching the live broadcast, all began to sob, cries of sorrow all around. Whether they were crying for one side or lanting this country, tornted by oppression for ten years, embroiled in an internal strife amongst their own people, she didn’t know.
Listening to the crying, Yiyi felt uneasy too. War always harms the common people.
She waited all night in the bar, receiving news of continuous governnt troops’ defeats and rebels taking over various places.
Yiyi couldn’t help but beco anxious, silently cursing what the Yalan governnt is doing. Are they still not planning to ask for help? Lingering like this, in the end, they might even hand over their regi, then it would be too late for them to cry.
In fact, many officials within the Yalan governnt also demanded to ask for foreign help, but there were also many opposing officials saying that this would allow foreign forces to take advantage of the situation, which is easy to invite but difficult to send away. By then, Yalan Country’s sovereignty wouldn’t even be under their control.
Thus, the governnt was also split into two factions, arguing constantly, delaying the opportunity.
After another night, Yiyi slept in a private room in the bar. Upon waking up, she checked the news about the war, and her face turned pale. My goodness, the rebels were getting closer to Lily City, and now the seaside town where the Du Le couple lived was in imminent danger, soon to be overrun.
Sitting idle was useless, relying on the Yalan governnt was pointless, those cowards not retreating would already be a blessing.
A strong idea suddenly erged in Yiyi’s mind: she would find a way to rescue the Du Le couple herself.
This thought was very dangerous, but at this mont her heart was filled with courage. After all, without the Du Le couple, she would’ve been long dead, so she couldn’t just stand by and watch them die.
But how could she leave the city, how could she return to the seaside town?
