Chen Tian let out a long sigh, his expression conflicted as he spoke:
"Back in Kyoto, you are, for all intents and purposes, General Bai, a woman revered by all. But if you leave with me for the Golden Triangle, you won't just lose everything you have—you’ll likely be branded a terrorist by the major powers."
"For your background and your reputation, this is a night-and-day difference."
Bai Yujiao stood up abruptly, her eyes bright with surprise. "Are you saying you're willing to take me with you?"
"Well," Chen Tian replied, taken aback by her reaction, "you're my woman. Of course I want you by my side."
Bai Yujiao threw her arms around him, exclaiming with joy, "That is all I needed to hear! I don't care about honor or reputation anymore. We should be supporting you. This world will never be truly peaceful; there will always be ambitious people who disregard humanity and the world just to satisfy their own selfish desires."
"It doesn't matter what they call me. What matters is that we stay true to our conscience and to the world."
