Wang Hao was delighted to hear when Yin Na told him about her feelings towards Huo Jin. "But Brother Wang, I don't think that Huo Jin feels the same." Wang Hao furrowed his brows together.
"He has someone in his heart. He told me that the woman he loved is no more, but he loves her," Yin Na stated.
"Did you tell him his feelings?" Wang Hao asked her.
"No," Yin Na instantly shook her head. "He would have rejected my feelings right away," she said and lowered her eyes.
"Why do you like Huo Jin? You don't usually get close to men," Wang Hao asked her.
"Brother Wang, it's because of his calmness and also the way he shows care towards me. In the last week, when Brother Wang was not here, Huo Jin cared meticulously for me. Brother Wang knows that how men treated me all these years. The time when I was in the Brothel House, the men only needed one thing from me.
However, Huo Jin is different. I got attracted to him because of many reasons. It might take an entire night to explain," asserted Yin Na.
"Your brother will talk to Huo Jin," Wang Hao stated.
"No, Brother Wang. I request you not to do that," Yin Na urged him.
"Why? You like him," Wang Hao was perplexed to hear his sister.
"Because he dearly loves the woman who's no more. Also, I want to confess my feelings to him one day, but after gaining his trust. I feel that Huo Jin needs to be loved. When I heard how abusive his previous master was, I felt that my life was still better. At least, I never got beaten up. I want to take gradual steps towards Huo Jin. Your sister can take care of this. Brother Wang shall worry about him. Tomorrow is a big day for him," Yin Na stated and smiled.
"Yin Na has indeed grown up. Okay. I will not intervene in this matter. However, if you need any kind of help, do tell me," Wang Hao stated. He raised his hand and started to caress her head.
"Yes, Brother Wang," Yin Na answered. "Brother, I heard that the daughter of the Prime Minister has been interested in you for a long time. Because you were in wars and other political affairs, she could never get a chance to meet. She must love you dearly that she waited this long for you," Yin Na said and smiled. Wang Hao pulled his hand back.
"I never was aware of that. Even the Emperor said the same," Wang Hao replied.
"Huo Jin once took me to the famous restaurant in the market for lunch. While we were having lunch, I heard the conversation of a few women from the noble class. They were conversing about the two Generals of Han– Brother Xiao and you. Many women are desperate to marry you, but they said that Brother Wang will marry the Prime Minister's daughter," Yin Na said.
"Let's see. I need to meet her first. After that, I will see," Wang Hao said.
"Does Brother Wang not want to marry her? Father will get sad if he hears this," Yin Na deduced.
"I will marry, but only after meeting her. I need to see if our thoughts match," Wang Hao stated.
"What if they don't? Will Brother Wang refuse? But she loves you. It will hurt her," Yin Na proclaimed.
"It's better than living a sad life," Wang Hao affirmed.
Yin Na nodded her head.
Wang Hao stood up and told her to sleep. "Yes, Brother. You shall also sleep. Take a good rest," she said with a smile. Wang Hao smiled back and walked out of her room.

Huo Jin closed the notebook and put the brush in the brush stand. He prepared to sleep when he heard the servant, "Young Master is entering." Huo Jin put the notebook down on the table and stood up. He bowed before him.
"You don't need to do such formalities," Wang Hao told him and sat down on the cushion. Huo Jin also sat down and asked about his sudden visit.
"I was unable to sleep, so I thought to converse with you for some time. Are you sleepy? If it is so, I will leave," Wang Hao affirmed.
"I am not sleepy, General Wang," Huo Jin answered. Wang Hao's eyes fell on the notebook on the desk, so he asked about it.
"It's nothing, General Wang," Huo Jin replied and put the notebook inside the drawer. He then passed a smile to Wang Hao.
"Is there something that General Wang wants to say to me?" Huo Jin asked him. "Is worried about his sister? About her marriage? I feel that she should enjoy her life a little more. It has not been long since she left her past life," Huo Jin asserted.
"Yes, you are right," Wang Hao stated. "Thank you for taking good care of Yin Na behind my back. She hardly trusts men but around you she is comfortable," Wang Hao proclaimed.
"It was my duty, General Wang. You do not need to thank me," Huo Jin said. "General Wang, how is the Emperor doing? It has been a long time since I last met him. Does he miss me?" Huo Jin asked, out of the blue.
"The Emperor is immersed in the Empire's work and after the pregnancy of the Empress, he got busier. He is doing well. You shall go to the Palace and meet him yourself," Wang Hao advised him.
"I angered the Emperor the last time I went to the Palace. I told Empress Dowager's truth to Prince Nianzu. I am a little scared to face the Emperor. I do not know whether he has forgiven me or not," Huo Jin asserted.
"Don't take the words of the Emperor to your heart. He is not angry at you anymore. Visit the Emperor tomorrow. He will feel good. The Emperor trusts you that's why he still considers you as the first choice for spying works," Wang Hao affirmed.
"Then, that's great. I will visit the Emperor tomorrow. Two days ago, I saw him visiting Hu Jingguo's grave. His Majesty must be missing him," Huo Jin said.
Wang Hao hummed. He wanted to talk about his sister to him but remained quiet as Yin Na had told her. "I shall leave. Sleep tight," Wang Hao said and stood up.. He left the chamber while Huo Jin wondered why Wang Hao visited him out of a sudden.
