It's a Good Thing to Let Go

Su Shen noticed Gong Zhan too, but only faintly lifted his eyelids, casting a cursory glance in his direction. He didn't seem surprised, nor did he care why Gong Zhan was present.

In the next moment, Gong Zhan couldn't keep his composure. "Are you heading to the capital?" he asked.

Su Shen's expression was cold, as if he didn't even register the man standing before him. He ignored Gong Zhan's question, feeling no connection to the man. Not only were they not close, but Gong Zhan was also covertly coveting another man's wife. Su Shen didn't want to engage with him, so he lowered his gaze and closed his eyes to rest.

Gong Zhan didn't say anything more, his face growing darker. The guards watched as their deputy commander was snubbed for the first time, wisely choosing to remain silent.
