NOVPUBShen Roujia withdrew her gaze, not letting the current situation affect her.
In fact, the lively feast left Shen Roujia feeling quite content. 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘱𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝑚
As they drank and chatted, Wei Rui became increasingly intrigued by these visitors from afar.
Wen Surong exuded a wildness that was different from the carefree and uninhibited nature typical of the martial world. He carried a natural sense of frankness and freedom.
Wei Rui found himself deeply engrossed in conversation with this type of person, and over the course of their talk, they exchanged names and identities.
Wei Rui introduced, “This is my wife, Liu Ruyi, and that’s my sister, Wei Jiaojiao.”
Wen Surong glanced at Shen Roujia’s petite figure, then back at Wei Rui, finding it hard to believe that the two were siblings.
Shen Roujia gave a slight bow and then stepped forward to refill their wine cups.
Wei Rui loudly declared, “We people of the martial world value friendship above all! Today, I’ve made a new friend, hahaha!”
Wen Surong smiled slightly and raised his cup, “Brother Wei, you’re a man of true character.”
Tu Lie, who had been silent, spoke up from behind, “Father, Brother Wei and I are about the same age. By that logic, we should be the ones calling each other brothers.”
Wen Surong chuckled, “You brat, in the martial world, age doesn’t determine seniority.”
Shen Roujia observed the two of them and softly asked, “Where do you plan to go next?”
Given the tense situation on the border, the sudden appearance of people from the Northern Border naturally raised some questions.
Wen Surong sighed, “To be honest, we came to the Great Zhou to try to ease tensions, but we were betrayed by our own people.”
“Right now, the Dayue clan is driven by greed, seeking to conquer all. They began by destroying allied tribes, and now they deliberately provoke the Great Zhou, putting the Northern Border at risk. Most of our people just want to live in peace.”
Shen Roujia was taken aback, not expecting him to say such things. “Then...”
Wen Surong glanced at Shen Roujia, “We plan to conceal our identities and head to Yancheng, where we’ll seek out the legendary General Gu and explain everything, hoping to form an alliance.”
Shen Roujia understood Wen Surong’s intentions.
