"General Shi."
Chu Baihan had just finished writing the letter, ready to send someone back to the capital city.
That's when she heard the voice at the door.
General Shi?
Shi Jing?
"General Shi, the Princess does not wish to see anyone."
The guard stopped Shi Jing.
But at that moment, Chu Baihan's cool voice came from inside the tent; "Let him in."
Soon after, Shi Jing, clad in silver armor, strode in.
From his appearance, he must have just returned from patrol.
Looking at his face, stubble on his chin, shadows under his eyes.
In such a state, he had lost some of his usual wildness and exuberance.
Since when had the sharp edges of his persona started to fade, replaced by a sense of gloom?
"General Shi has come. Is there something you wish to report?" Chu Baihan withdrew her gaze and asked in a cold voice.
Seeing her distant manner, a pang of pain flashed through Shi Jing's eyes.
Is she really...
Going to be like this?
