Bai Jinse stood by, watching Bai Qingyan with eager eyes, hoping she could also contribute somehow: "Eldest Young Lady... what about me?"
"Tomorrow's expedition, you stay behind..." Bai Qingyan smiled at Bai Jinse, "The defense at the rear is very important. It's possible that Dongyi might also split their forces for an attack. The safety of the coastal folk and fishermen will be entrusted to you."
Bai Jinse was taken aback: "Eldest Young Lady, aren't you taking me?"
"We need someone from the Bai family to oversee things here; we can't all go to Dongyi..." Bai Qingyan stood up and patted Bai Jinse on the head, "Go and help your fourth sister!"
Bai Jinse thought about it, knowing that their seventh brother certainly wouldn't stay behind, and the fourth sister was the type who'd dive into any place with a battle going on. If really someone from the Bai family had to stay, it could only be her.
