Ciona sat at the table, conversing with her mother, July Han. Some servants announced that Kizaer was in the waiting room of the Han House, looking for Ciona.
July Han dismissed the servant with a simple gesture and turned to Ciona. "It seems your dear friend's tenacity is truly admirable. If he came here alone in his current physical condition, he must have something serious to say."
"I suggest you go meet him. We can continue our conversation later," July Han said, looking into her daughter's eyes. Ciona smiled and replied, "Of course, Mother. I won't be long."
Ciona stood up and hurried to the waiting room, where she found Kizaer.
"Oh, hello, Kz. How are you feeling?" Ciona asked, scanning her friend from head to toe. She noticed that some bruise marks were more prominent now, and without the dirt clinging to his body, she could also see other cuts and bruises.
Hello!
Another long chapter—I'm currently having some problems in my job, so I've been publishing the chapters almost at the end of the day. I'll change that.
Every time there's the need to be more clear about the feelings of our heroes and their struggles, I'll be publishing a long chapter.
That said, thank you for standing firm and reading through all these chapters. You are the reason that I am putting in effort to give you the best!
