When Ding Yan spoke, Yuan Xiang was actually a little wary toward her.
Yuan Xiang understood Ding Yan’s thoughts better than anyone there.
If she were to choose one of the two identities, she would definitely not want to live in the house under the shackles of ethics and live a life of repression without any freedom.
Ding Yan, as a woman who grew up soaked in feudal ideology, could quickly adapt to her new identity environment after encountering such a legendary experience, without revealing faults and maintaining her life so well, she must be a strong and capable person.
Such a person often had a decisive heart, and the heart was the most complex and unpredictable.
Yuan Xiang’s mind began to play various ancient costume dramas. For example, the glorious and wealthy general refused to recognize his wife and a group of warriors with swords and axes rushed up outside the tent, with the intention of killing people. Or that the scolar did not want to be exposed, so he dealt with the people with a glass of poisoned wine.
She was taken aback by her own brain replenishment. She dared not drink tea for a while and she didn’t dare to eat snacks indiscriminately.
At this moment, Ding Yan looked at the familiar face sitting in front of her, with mixed feelings in her heart. It was her own face, but it looked so strange. She really didn’t want to go back to the dark and depressing years.
She rubbed her fingers back and forth between the top handles and heard her voice so obscure, “Are you General Qiu himself?”
Qiu Yueming clasped his fists and bowed, “Like you, I am full of emotions, never imagined that I could see myself face to face like this.”
“Actually, I wonder if we have met before.” Ding Yan said, “Just when I was confused, I felt in a trance that a man gave me a hand and then I came here. That person must be you, general.”
Qiu Yueming remembered the initial moment, “I never knew whether it was an illusion, but now it seems to be true.”
Ding Yan crossed her hands to salute, “After I got here, I heard the general’s countless deeds in the past and I admired you in my heart. Fortunately, what I have done during this period of time was not too bad and did not discredit your reputation.”
When she said that, she paused for a moment and finally she said, “Do you have any way to deal with the situation at hand?”
“Lady, you could change it back.”Zhou Deyun stood up excitedly and wanted to get closer and hold his wife’s hand, but looking at the general sitting on the seat in front of him, he only dared to rub his hands, pointed to Yuan Xiang and said, “She is an expert and has good Taoism. I specially invited her all the way. She has a way to make you return to normal.”
“She is Mr Yuen’s outstanding student, I asked her to come the way over, she has a way to get you back to normal.”
His wife finally turned her gaze to him, her eyes softened a bit, no longer as strange and indifferent as in the morning, her eyes were a little helpless and some sorrow could be faintly detected.
Zhou Deyun seemed to be encouraged and hurried forward a few steps, “Ayan, during your absence, the house was in a mess. You don’t know how much I have suffered. It was not easy to find you. Let’s go back home, alright?”
Ding Yan looked at him for a long while, did not say anything, but looked at Yuan Xiang, “Could the girl exchange the souls?”
It was the first time Yuan Xiang had a conversation with this lady who had been mentioned by Zhou Deyun all along, but she didn’t intend to hide it from her, “I haven’t practiced it. When I left, my friend gave me a magic weapon that could restrain the soul. I tried it with dead spirits and animals several times along the way, and nothing went wrong. But I can’t guarantee everything.”
Ding Yan smiled at her, “I see. Thank you for telling me so frankly.”
“Are you…really sure that you are willing to return to your respective position?” Yuan Xiang couldn’t help asking.
Ding Yan’s willingness to agree so readily made Yuan Xiang feel a little more fond and curious about her. Frankly speaking, if this matter was changed to her, it may not be so easy to be willing to return this free identity that had been used for more than a year.
“I don’t want to.” Ding Yan lowered her eyelashes, clenched her fists and said in a low voice, “To be honest, when I saw you in the morning, I was panicked and scared. My heart became a mess and even some vicious thoughts occurred. I thought about summoning soldiers to drive you out of Datong. Or simply… just grab you, charge you with fine-grained crimes and put you in jail.”
Cold light and struggle flashed in her eyes and after a while she still sighed and the look turned into relief, “Fortunately, I finally figured it out and I didn’t become that kind of terrible person. In fact, it’s good to have this year’s experience. It makes me see what I really want and need. Now, even without this level of identity, I believe I could live the life I want to live.”
“I am willing to return to my respective position with General Qiu.” Ding Yan finally raised her eyes to look at everyone, her eyes were clear, “But I will not be Mrs. Zhou again, nor will I go back to Dingzhou.”
“Ayan, you, you, what did you say? Where can you go if you don’t go back with me?” Zhou Deyun was shocked and couldn’t speak neatly.

yarnie
Im sorry but the way tht woman act like she has a decision in giving general’s body to him makes me kınd of angry. I can understand if she wants to dısappear or not want to cont her old wıfe wıth thıs husband or whatever but the way she said: Im willing to return to my respective position with general… NOPE -_-
Messy person
Honestly good for her. Who would want to return to being a subserviant position who’s only role is to do household management and childbirth when you’ve already shown potential that you’re able to lead an army and come up with strategies to fight the enemy. The husband is a big L.
