Wrap it up

As you lay in bed together, Chan said with a small frown, "Bu...Despite this being a memorable night, I cannot help but feel that it would be the last."

You reassure her with a warm smile as you look down on her and tell her, "Don't be afraid. If we defeat Liu Bei and Cao Cao at Xia Pi, then a night like this can happen again. But if we die in battle, we have no regrets for tonight."

Chan smiled before she kissed you deeply and you wrap your arms around her in a strong embrace before the two of you soon fell asleep.

The battle at Xia Pi would be a historic one in the lives of Cao Cao and Liu Bei, but what if Lu Bu won the battle? Was it because of his determination to claim the land of China as his own? Or was it his confidence in winning the battle?

Neither one of these is the answer: the correct answer was the love Bu had possessed for the beautiful Diao Chan, and instead of dying together in battle, the two lived on with nothing more than devotion and love.
