Bab 106: Chapter 106: An Inexplicable Alienation

Xiangning smiled and said, "I was just about to go in."

"Let's go, I'll take you there." The King of Chu, who had intended to leave, followed Xiangning back to the main courtyard.

Xiangning guessed that the King of Chu might have something to ask her.

"I am very timid," Xiangning said, looking down at the path beneath her feet.
