376 Dejection

Xing spent the next few days peacefully in her Manor and as usual visited her father every other day. She asked Seiren to conduct investigation on the Fire Kingdom and find out how much they are involved in the new drug that has appeared in their Eastern Borders. She sent a letter to Ayane to know how much they have investigated about that drug too.

Xing ignored the letters the Emperor sent on behalf of Weiye and went on finishing the jade hairpin she was making. The two years she was wandering in the Sky Kingdom, she spent a lot of time in carriage rides and as she was bored and missed Chenglei a lot, she used her jade carving skills she learnt from Old Tong. She wanted to make something for Chenglei when she meets him back and since she had no skills in cooking, embroidery or painting, she decided to test her skills with jade carving.
