Capítulo 104: Chapter 104: Heartless

Ling was very silent the whole way back to the palace, Xian Zhen had a very eerie feeling about his demure but he let it go, he knew what could possibly have shaken his son conscious but it is better to do to talk after reaching the palace and in private. He is just glad that, he got him back but he still can't remember what happened and...he looks at Hong Liu who was walking beside him lost in her own thoughts, her knuckles bloody, her robes, her face was smudged in dirt and blood. He didn't doubt her words, there was no argument that she come and saved him again. She got hurt again because of him.

They now enter the palace, as he took her hand in his. His gentle touch shook Hong Liu out of her thoughts.

"What is it?"

"I took all of your blades, apologies," He said.

"It's fine, just don't do it next time," She covers his hand with hers and smile, seeing the care and a little bit of guilt in his eyes.
