NOVPUBShen Roujia’s red dress complemented Gu Zhi’s red armor perfectly.
Instinctively, Shen Roujia looked at Gu Zhi, whom she hadn’t seen in a long time, and her heart filled with emotion. She couldn’t quite place her feelings, but to a large extent, Shen Roujia recognized them as a form of longing.
Seeing Gu Zhi there, Shen Roujia’s steps slowed, just as they had when she first arrived. She hadn’t imagined she would have the chance to reunite with these friends.
Initially, Shen Roujia had only wanted to quietly leave this small, unremarkable place and return to her world without causing anyone too much sadness.
Thinking of this, a wave of bittersweet emotion washed over her.
After embracing Wen Surong and Tu Lie, she walked toward Gu Zhi.
“Zhi Zhi, it’s been a while, hasn’t it?”
Gu Zhi’s voice, surprisingly, had a rare tremor. Shen Roujia knew Gu Zhi was just as emotional as she was.
She responded with a soft hum, unexpectedly finding herself a bit at a loss for what to do.
Glancing at Wen Surong, she heard him say, “You two should catch up. In a few days, General Gu will be returning to the Capital by royal command.” 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
Shen Roujia paused, not expecting things to move so quickly.
Without worrying about her conflicting thoughts, she grabbed Gu Zhi’s hand and said, “Zhi Zhi, let’s go inside and talk.”
Gu Zhi’s expression softened as she looked at Shen Roujia.
Shen Roujia herself didn’t notice the subtle changes in Gu Zhi’s expression.
Just like her initial thoughts, Shen Roujia still didn’t consider herself particularly special.
