The Princess's Journey

He’s gone…

Hou Jingshu closed her eyes and pressed a hand to her chest. She had felt like this when Wu Jian went to the Zhou Kingdom has well. Lonely. While she maintained a strong outward appearance, the truth was that she wanted to go with him. She didn’t like it when they were apart. Of course, she knew this was just a part of life. They couldn’t be together all the time, but she still wished they could. Zhou Lihua and Wu Meiying must also feel the same way.

“Now that the brat is gone, there’s no more reason for us to linger,” Loong Chen announced, turning to Hou Jingshu and crossing his arms. “It’s time for us to leave too.”

She blinked. Once.

“What? Now?”

“Yes. Now.”

“Right now?”

“Right now.”

“But…”

“Quit stalling. It’s time to go. We’ve already wasted more than enough time.”
