245 Extra The first master of the Bai family (3) Part I
The first master of the Bai family was having a pleasant dream.
In the dream, there was a song that kept repeating. He loved hearing it, as it was what had awoken him from death to wander the dream that was void yet warm.
That song echoed in his dreamscape. And as time passed, other sounds started to leak into the dream. Strangely, he enjoyed it, despite being turned into a woman in that dream. It was not incorrect to say that he was a pampered young lady. The dream continued for a very long time, long enough for him to change from a selfish person to someone who cared for others.
His dream was not continuous. In one day, he would dream for several shichens before everything disappeared, then returned again. The longer the dream continued, the clearer it became. He could hear a woman’s voice talking. She would tell him stories about herself, and in turn, he would do what she had described in the long dream.
Recently, she started talking about his skin. Bai He was surprised to see himself in the dream, masking his skin so carefully and meticulously.
He could not believe that when he woke up, he would find himself with soft, white skin in reality as well. And the cause was the owner of that deep, full cleavage that was pushed to his face the moment he opened his eyes.
She was Miss Xu Peipei.
He remembered the stories from his sister’s letters. Furthermore, he had gone to her birthday party with Bai Yu before he was injured. Now she had become his caretaker while he was asleep, and the ‘life’ he had in his dream was what she had told him.
Bai He had the utmost gratitude for her. But because of everything that happened after, he did not have the chance to pay her back.
.....
And in his dream, there was something that greatly troubled him.
He dreamed that his Yu-er was getting farther away from him. Thus, the first thing he did, after wiping his nosebleed, was to ask for his sister. Then, he left for Da Chu’s border after learning about the situation from his mother. Fortunately, he woke up in time to save Ouyang Feilong.
When the crisis was finally over, the first master of the Bai family’s dear sister was torn away by none other than his own commander… Bai He did not know whether to laugh or cry at having the emperor as his brother-in-law.
If his sister suffered because of Ouyang Feilong… Could he reprimand the emperor?
If his sister was made sad by Ouyang Feilong… Could he hit the emperor?
If his sister cried because of Ouyang Feilong… Could he kill the emperor?
“Brother, are you inside?”
The voice of the apple of his eyes was heard from in front of his bedroom. Bai He wanted to remain silent and not give any response, but in the end, he caved in and let her in.
“I thought Brother would never want to talk to me.” Today, Bai Yu had told her parents who she would marry. And that ‘who’ was the future emperor of Da Yang.
No matter how great a man Ouyang Feilong was, the overprotective brother would never want her to marry him. Be it Ouyang Feilong or someone else… He did not want her to marry anyone!
“Why won’t I talk to you?” Bai He spoke with the most solemn tone he could muster. Yet it did not make Bai Yu feel that he was angry at all… He seemed more depressed. A person at the extreme of his protectiveness.
Bai Yu walked over to hug her brother. “Is Brother angry that I’m going to marry someone?”
Bai He remained quiet, not moving to hug back. The younger sibling then pretended to say,
“If Brother doesn’t like it, shall I cancel the marriage and let Brother take care of me until I’m an old woman?”
“I’ll do that if I can.”
“Oh, brother.”
Bai He sighed. He gently stroked his sister’s head. “He can protect you. I know.” Ouyang Feilong was like a brother to him. That man was the most wonderful person.
“I think so too.” Bai Yu moved away from her brother. She gazed into his dark eyes, her expression was serious. “I hope Brother will put aside your worries about me and seek happiness for yourself.”
Bai He was the first master of the Bai family, and he had a stable and esteemed career. It was no wonder that hundreds of women were ready to give themselves to him. Yet her brother never took anyone else to be beside him. The only reason was her, Bai Yu.
He was so worried about her that he could not be happy with any woman until she found her happiness.
“As long as you’re happy. That’s the only thing that matters, Yu-er.” Bai He’s answer did not differ from her expectation.
“But I want Brother to be happy with someone, a good person…”
“I cannot do that.” He immediately refused. “Even if there are ten of them, they can’t make me happy like a single smile from you. You marrying the commander general doesn’t mean that everything will go smoothly. The road in the future runs long. I can’t let go of your hand.”
“Brother…”
“I’ve protected you all your life. Let me do it for a little longer.” He gave her a gentle smile. Bai Yu could say nothing at his words as she hugged him with great joy welling up in her heart.
This man loved her more than anything.

“Greetings to Master Bai.”
After various incidents, Xu Peipei almost never met Bai He again. One part was because he was busy helping Ouyang Feilong, and the other was because she did not have an appropriate reason to meet him. Though they had met at Bai Mansion before, they had not had an opportunity for a serious conversation.
“No need for the formality, Miss Xu.” Bai He smiled as he greeted her. He still had to thank her. Now that they could meet, he wanted to treat her as politely as he could.
“Congratulations.” Xu Peipei remembered what he had allowed her to call him. However, his polite and gentle manner deterred her from stepping over the line of formality into friendliness, as she was used to while he was asleep. Even though she was dying to talk to him!
“Thank you, Miss Xu.” His handsome face was full of smiles. As he gazed at her, suddenly, the intimate image of her large softness appeared in his mind, making him turn away from her as his ears reddened.
“Uh…” Xu Peipei wanted to speak to him like she once did, but she was not used to Bai He, who was conscious and was turning his face away, refusing to meet her eyes. “Are you…feeling well?”
“Very well. Ahem, I am fine.” Bai He cleared his throat to pull his thoughts back. He did not know why he became embarrassed every time he recalled the first thing he saw when he woke. He had seen a woman’s body countless times and had done more than just see. Although those women were not as voluptuous as Miss Xu’s, it was still strange for him to feel…slightly shy.
“Then that is good.” Seeing that the other person did not want to look at her, the thought of talking slowly faded from Xu Peipei’s mind.
“I haven’t thanked you for taking care of me while I was unconscious.” When he saw that her alluringly beautiful face was bowed down as if she was going to leave, Bai He had to reach out and hold her back with a conversation. Still, he could not meet her gaze or look at her face for too long…especially at the appealing curve of her chest, which he could not take even a single glance at.
