As General Shi finished speaking, he sensed that the atmosphere was a bit off.
Yan Qi silently glanced at General Shi and then stealthily peeked at Helan Yanting.
Helan Yanting turned to look at General Shi, raising his eyebrows slightly. "General Shi sure has a great mood, hehe."
General Shi shivered involuntarily. He always felt that the military advisor's words carried a hidden meaning.
"Since the war began, everyone has been on high alert. It's rare to have such a relaxing moment. I just thought it would be good for everyone to relax. Since Miss Yun is good at singing and dancing, I suggested having a performance..."
"Since General Shi has such a good mood, why not let General Shi set an example for everyone and sing a song first?"
After saying that, Helan Yanting glanced faintly at Yan Qi beside him. Yan Qi quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes. I've heard that General Shi has a good voice and likes to hum tunes on weekdays. Why not show us your talent at this moment! Warm up the atmosphere!"
"This..." General Shi probably didn't expect that he had completely shot himself in the foot. With the encouragement from Helan Yanting and Yan Qi, soon the other soldiers also joined in, all shouting for General Shi to sing a song.
"Since everyone is so enthusiastic, I'll make a fool of myself today, haha..."
General Shi was in a good mood. He took a sip of wine as if to boost his courage, then walked to the center of the crowd beside the bonfire, ready to sing.
Just then, for some reason, the others around started to encourage Feng Yunshu to dance. Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, Feng Yunshu didn't want to disappoint them, so she reluctantly nodded in agreement.
"Since everyone is so enthusiastic, then Yunxi will make a fool of herself..."
As Feng Yunshu was speaking, she felt a strong gaze following her. She turned her head and saw that the owner of this gaze was Helan Yanting.
Helan Yanting saw that Feng Yunshu was about to take off her cloak to dance, and his face darkened a bit.
Feng Yunshu saw his gloomy face. She wanted to laugh but didn't dare, fearing that he would secretly hold a grudge against her.
"Brother Tingyan, if you don't want Yunxi to dance, then Yunxi won't dance... Brother Tingyan, don't be angry with Yunxi..."
Feng Yunshu stepped forward and tugged at Helan Yanting's sleeve, blinking her bright and shining eyes at him.
Helan Yanting shuddered all over. He turned to look at Feng Yunshu, his expression extremely complicated. "Speak properly. If you want to dance, then dance."
Feng Yunshu saw how disgusted he was by her, and couldn't help laughing.
"Where would I know how to dance? I was just teasing you..."
Just as Feng Yunshu finished speaking, she was called again by others. Under the strong demand of everyone, she was forced to come to the center of the crowd and reluctantly nodded to dance for General Shi.
A young soldier beside her had already made preparations. He brought over a big drum and started beating it to accompany General Shi.
The sound of the drum was impassioned, starting weak and then growing stronger, from slow to fast and then returning to a slow rhythm. It made people feel excited.
General Shi started singing along with the drumbeat, "The wind howls and the Yi River is cold. A brave warrior sets off... He won't return until he defeats the kids from the Dan Kingdom!"
Feng Yunshu was just about to dance when she heard this song. She was stunned on the spot and almost petrified.
How could she dance to this song? Did she have to perform a powerful Mongolian dance?
At the moment, let alone dancing. Feng Yunshu was so embarrassed that she moved her hands and feet awkwardly. It was extremely difficult for her to keep up with the rhythm.
This...
The soldiers looked at Feng Yunshu's appearance and dressing. They thought they had a real expert here, but now seeing Feng Yunshu waving her limbs extremely uncoordinatedly in the center of the field, they suddenly realized that she was actually a novice...
Feng Yunshu accidentally moved her hands and feet in the same direction. The soldiers around, out of respect for Helan Yanting, endured not laughing. They all blushed from holding it in.
"Hahaha..."
In this extremely embarrassing atmosphere, General Shi suddenly let out a booming laugh. Then he said, "Miss Yun's dance is really special. I've never seen such a unique dance before. It's really interesting..."
As he was speaking, General Shi didn't hear the other soldiers respond to him. Moreover, everyone was looking at him with complicated expressions...
General Shi silently glanced at Feng Yunshu. "Did I say something wrong just now?"
Feng Yunshu shook her head with a smile. "No, no. General, you are really humorous. Everyone is amused by your humor."
"Really?"
Helan Yanting spoke in a deep voice at this time. "Yunxi, come here."
Feng Yunshu turned to look at him. Seeing his serious face, her heart skipped a beat. Did he think she had embarrassed him?
Feng Yunshu reluctantly turned around and trotted up to him. Helan Yanting grabbed her hand and turned towards the tent.
"Hey, Your Highness, what are you doing? Why are you walking so fast? You're hurting my wrist!"
Feng Yunshu frowned in confusion and tried to pull him to a stop.
Helan Yanting turned to look at her. "Who told you to dress like this and come out?"
"Didn't we say that I would stay by Your Highness's side as a dancing girl? We've agreed on this beforehand..."
Feng Yunshu was originally very confident, but for some reason, when she saw his increasingly cold face, her voice involuntarily weakened.
"Your Highness, what are you doing again? I just dressed like this. I haven't done anything immoral. Your Highness, is it really necessary to have such a gloomy face, as if I owe you a lot of silver..."
"Don't wear such revealing clothes again."
Helan Yanting said irritably, looking up and down at Feng Yunshu's clothes as he spoke.
"The dress I'm wearing is a special exotic dance dress. How is it revealing?"
Helan Yanting's gaze stopped on her slender waist and then slowly moved up. Because Feng Yunshu was excited and trotted just now, her collar had slightly fallen down at some point...
Helan Yanting's gaze involuntarily focused on the key part. He felt a bit hot in his body, and his Adam's apple rolled up and down.
"Ah! What are you looking at?!"
Feng Yunshu looked down at her collar belatedly. She was so excited that she quickly covered her chest.
"Since you think this dress is normal, why are you so nervous? Moreover, I'm your husband. Why are you so surprised when I look at you?"
"You, you, you..."
Feng Yunshu was a bit irritated by his words. "Anyway, you're not allowed to look!"
"Oh? Really? Then can I... touch?"
Feng Yunshu's face instantly turned as red as a tomato. Before she could react, she was spun 90 degrees and directly picked up horizontally by him. When her body was suspended in the air, she panicked and quickly reached out to hug his neck.
"Your Highness, what are you doing? Put me down quickly!"
"You dressed like this just to seduce me on purpose. Let me tell you, you've succeeded."
"No! When did I say I wanted to seduce you? I didn't! Your Highness, are you being too self - indulgent? Put me down quickly!"
"Aren't you good at singing and dancing and have flexible limbs? I'd like to see if your little body is really that flexible and supple..."
At this moment, Xiaoling and Ziyuan were standing silently beside the tent not far away, watching all this.
"Xiaoling, do you think we should go over and help the young lady? It seems that the young lady wants to break free."
Xiaoling shook her head. "Definitely not. It's better for the two of them to solve this kind of thing by themselves. The young couple is just flirting. We mustn't interfere."
