The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 1081: Chapter 1081: I... Am a General

The loneliness in his eyes was so evident.

His silhouette was obviously tall and upright, with resolute and clear facial lines, and an aura of nobility. He appeared to be someone who should be high above others, so why did he have such profound loneliness?

Xiaoqi silently watched him and suddenly asked, ”What did you do before?”

Su Xingqiao was taken aback for a moment, ”Before?”

Xiaoqi nodded, ”Before coming to the Futu Realm, I know you are not from the Futu Realm.”

Su Xingqiao furrowed his brows, instinctively feeling a bit wary, but his face didn’t show a trace of it. However, he also didn’t know how to answer Xiaoqi’s question.

Xiaoqi waved her hand, ”Don’t overthink it, I mean no harm. Sigh, in this world, there’s probably nothing I don’t know, like, you like the sister who scolded me today, right? But she only sees you as a brother, that’s so sad.”

Xiaoqi sighed.

Su Xingqiao looked at Xiaoqi in disbelief, ”How do you know?”

But as soon as he asked, he regretted it. What if she was testing him?

He pressed his lips tightly, somewhat regretting his impulsiveness.

”I can tell. I’m naturally smart, with a photographic memory,” Xiaoqi said with a bit of pride and a touch of loneliness. After all, geniuses are often lonely.

Su Xingqiao... what’s this got to do with having a photographic memory?

”I... am a general.” Su Xingqiao hesitated for a moment before replying.

Rather than being an Emperor, he actually preferred being a general, galloping on the battlefield to protect the country.

”That’s incredible! You must be able to lead so many people to war!” Xiaoqi’s eyes lit up, looking at him with admiration.

Su Xingqiao was amused by her exaggerated expression, unable to hold back a low laughter, ”What’s so good about war? War causes many deaths and leaves even more people homeless. If possible, I hope there will never be war. That’s the reason we go to war.”

War has always been cruel. The reason they chose war was to have less of it and enjoy more peace.

Xiaoqi scrunched up her face, ”Isn’t that contradictory? Wanting war but not wanting war, that’s really strange!”

Still, she was more curious, ”What is it like where you’re from? Are there many people, and then... and then you ride a big horse, looking majestic?”

Su Xingqiao chuckled, ”Haven’t you ever ridden a horse?”

Xiaoqi shook her head in disappointment, ”No, there are no such things on the island because they are useless here. I only saw them in books. I envy the feeling of having many people around. It must be lively, unlike me, who has felt cold and cheerless everywhere since birth, not interesting at all.”

Su Xingqiao was surprised, ”You have lived alone since childhood? Here?”

”No, this is just where I’m temporarily staying. I don’t live on this island.” Xiaoqi sighed, ”But I don’t like my life at all, it’s too boring.”

Su Xingqiao looked at her childish demeanor and felt amused. The intense feeling of loneliness he had earlier had unconsciously dissipated quite a bit.

And then, Xiaoqi very seriously stood up, walked over to him, pulled him back, and made him sit opposite her. She frowned, puffed up her cheeks, clenched her tiny fists, and finally made up her mind to say to him, ”I’m sorry—”
