Throughout two lifetimes combined, General Song has galloped on the battlefield for decades, but this is the first time he's faced such a situation. He wanted to comfort Sister Chen first, hoping she wouldn't be too upset, but Sister Chen quickly walked past him, her eyes lowered, not even glancing at him.
Song Xian's heart was pounding like a drum, yet he composed himself, straightening his back properly, and walked towards Xie Shao Yuan. He already understood Liangchen's feelings for him, and the only possible issue lay with Old Master Xie.
Rather than offering empty consolation, it would be better to trace the root of the issue.
Xie Shao Yuan squinted slightly. This young man's bones are tough. Should he take the opportunity to beat him while Song Xian is seriously injured, or should he spare him for now, considering Song Xian's service to the country?
Song Xian stood firmly at the doorway.
Xie Shao Yuan said, "Come in!"
